TIE MAIN STREET BRIDGE
ds n Reminder of tho Way Certain Inter
ests Deceived the People.

A member Of the Council Committee
on Contracts, which has charge OF the
erection Of the Main street stone bridge
under the contract OF Paige, Carey 4
Co., whose bid was somewhat over
1900, said yesterday that before the
bridge Is completed, It will cost the city
from $780, 900 to St50,000. Said d promi.
nent citizen yesterday: "The people
were bamboozled and lied 10 concerning
that bridge, or We would now have q
first class, modern steel structure In use.
! am surprised that the people do not
kick more than they are, and the INTEL.
LidEScRR is certainly exercising great
forbearanCe In not scoring severely
those who are responsible for the
existing state Of affairs. Watch that the
same gang does not do tho name thing
with the people on the electric light
business. ! know that the Register, ai.
ter getting one mans opinion that a
plant would cost over 100000, quoted |
him .as sayiug that it could be put in |
complete for $4,000, and when he re.
with Mr.. Taney, that gentle. |
man suavely said, 'Ch, It won't do 10 |
lot the people think this thing is going to |
cost 80 much, or they won't be for it!'"

Nationalist members Of the House 0
Commons TO further consider the ques
ton Of tho retention Of MI. Patnell Ii
the leadership Of the party renssemblet
ate O'Clock this afternoon in tho room
OF the House Of Commons in which the
previous meetings have been held
During the proceedings Mr.. Paruell
announced that the Sergeant.at.Arms Of
the House Of Commons had granted the
Irish membsrs OF the Irish Committee
room until o'clock. Mr.. Healy dis.
puted that officials right to determine
the length Of the deliberations and re.
quested that he be notified to that effect.
Mr.. Parnell declared that the message
that Mr.. Healy suggested be sent to tie
Sergeant.at-Arms was lmpertineAt, Oh.
lection was raised to telegrams from
individuals being received during the
proceedings. F6rl
During the discussion telegram per.
sonal to Mr.. Parnell was read. Mr., Sex.
ton said he would persist to the end in
his opposition to Mr.. Parnell, despite
the rutiianly attacks that had been made
upon him. greg
A dispatch from Clonmel was read,
declaring that the tenants on the Smith
Barry estates were with Dillon aud
O'Bsien and in their opposition to tho
leader Of the party. -. M.
a telegram from the Belfast branch of
the National League was read. It de-
clared that the members would have no
leader but Parnell.
When this dispatch was read, Mr..
Sexton, who represents the western
division OF Belfast, said that il the opin.
ion OF the Belfast Nationalists was con-
trary to his own, he would resign his
seat in Parliament.
MIR. Clancy said he had proposal to
make which he hoped would induce
solution OF the difficulty in which the
party found itself. Mr.. CIaucy's motion
involves the temporary retirement OF
Mr.. Parnell subject to certain conditions
being exacted from Mr.. Gladstone in
onnection with his promised home rule
scheme. Mr.. Clancy's proposal has
raised hope among the Na.ionalists
that unanimous settlement will be ef.
fected. Liberal circles, however, do aot
share this hope, the attitude and front
OF the opposition regarding Parnell being
resolute and unyieldins. Adjourned
until tomorrow. .N.5.G
Those attending the meeting pledged
themselves not to divulge Mr.. Clancey's
compromise proposition, but it is be.
lieved that the proposal is to ask Mr..
Gladstone to give satisfactory assurance
OF introducing in his promised home
rule scheme certain measures in regard
to police and lands.
Mr.. Parnell has decided to state ex.
plicitly whether he will retire from the
leadership, but has asked day in which
to consider. Mr.. Clancy's proposal was
cleverIy designed in the ParnelI interest
in the event of the almost certain re-
fusal OF Mr.. Gladstone to give the re.
qnired pledyes.|
