MCCARTHY SUCCEEDS PARNELL.
lie Is Chosen Leader of the Majority OF
the Irish Party.

After long and bitter struggle Parnell
has been deposed by a majority OF the Irish
members OF Parliament. The result is the
outcome OF the O'Shea divorce case, in
which Mr.. Parnell figured as the co-respon-
dent. AT the final meeting Of the party
forty-four members withdrew with Justin
Mccarthy, and chose the latter
for a leader. Twenty-seven remained
with Parnell. A letter from the archbishops
and bishops was read I'm all the Catholic
churches i'm Ireland after the celebration OF
the mass Sunday. This letter bitterly de-
nounced Parnell and said that because OF
what was proved against him In the divorce
case he was unfit To lead the Irish people.
At 1t. Colmans Cathedral, Queens
town. after the letter had been read, the
Rev. Father Fisk addressed the congrega-
tion. He declared that IL was no longer
possible for Parnell To remain at the head
of the Irish party. He had disgraced, dis
hOnored, and degraded himself by his own
acts and could not lead the smallest section
of the Irish people. In refusing to recog-
nize the authority OF the Bishops. Parnell
was doing incalculable mischief 10 the
Irish cause, was performing the work OF
the enemy, and was rendering the people
disunited and distracted. The Mayor
OF Cork. after hearing OF the secession OF
the Mccarthy party, sent the following div
patch TO John O'Connor. "lreland won't
allow England To select her leader. This
right belongs TO Ireland. The Irish won't
stand Gladstone's dctation.n At the Cath
Ollie church in Mitchelstown the officiating
priest, after reading the declarations OF the
hierarchy, warned the supporters OF Parnell
throughout his district not To defy their
spiritual superiors.
