LONDON, June 6.-While nine-tenths
of the members of the house Of com
mons were witnessing the derby Mr..
John Dillon and Mr.. Gladstone were en-
gagged in an exchange of views on the
Irish situation, at Hawarden castle. II
was Mr.. Dillon's first visit to the ex-
premier, who drew his visitor into a
long conversation, touching the changes
which had taken place in Ireland in re-
cent years and the causes thereof.
Mr.. Dillon expressed the opinion that
the Irish people who were now Radical
had been mostly Tories until 1867, when
the tide of Radlcalism set in. Mr..
Gladstone inquired of Mr.. Dillon as to
the general political opinions of the peo-
pie of Ireland outside of the question Of
Home Rule, and displayed surprising
degree of anxiety for specific informa-
tion on that point in his manner of put
ting the question.

in an East End resort and finally agreed
to settle the dispute with the weapons

excited spectators, of the lowest stand

shouts of approval as one or the other
would infiict particularly severe cut
upon his adversary. The fight ended in

placed upon the importation of Ameri-

Comment of The st. Johns, N. F., Herald
on the Recent Action of the French in
Ordering Native Fishermen to Remove
Their Nets-Not French Fisherman
Within 200 Miles at the Time.
HALIFAX, N. s., June 6.-Newfound-
land papers received by steamer show
that the feeling over the st. Georges
bay affair is extremely bitter.
One paper, in discussing the incident,
declares that the French gunboat COM
PEELED the British fishermen to take up
their nets while the British warship
Pelican was at the spot and looked
calmly on, making no protest. The nets
were taken up under the very guns of
the Pelican. But this was not all. A
French officer, fully armed, came on
shore at Sandy Point and read to the
British citizens command to take up
sheir nets, thus asserting French juris-
diction in Newfoundland. None Of these
outrages was sufficient to rouse the Brit
ish naval officers to resistance.
The st. Johns Herald.
Commenting on the recent action of
the French in prohibiting fishing by ma
tives in Newfoundland waters the st.
Johns, N. F., Herald says:
The news that French man-of-war,
had under the very guns of a British
frigate enforced an order which forbade
British subjects to fish in their own
waters. was received here with astonish-
ment and indignation.
The circumstances are incredible to
colonlstS whose proudest boasts it had
ever been that they formed part of a
mighty nation, powerful to prevent and
swift to avenge even the least insult Of
fered by foreign power to the most in
significant of its citizens.
What made the circumstances even
more incredible was that such an out
rage should be offered and endured at a
time when England and France had en-
tered into an arrangement which was
professedly ratified with the object of
buying present peace and facilitating a
future settlement of existing difficulties.
But when once the fact of the outrage
was realized no one expressed any sur
prise as the determination of the people
of st. George Bay to renounce obedience
to local officials and to pay no more
duties until their wrongs were re-
dressed. These men were exercising
their undoubted right of fishery.
There was not a French fisherman
within 200 miles of there. Their sole
means of livelihood depended upon the
fishing which they We're prohibited from
procuring. Notwithstanding this the
local officials declined to interfere, and
a British man-of-war sanctioned the
proceeding by her non-interference.
