THE IRISH CONFLICT
Gladstone Makes No Promises
to the Nationalist.
THE Ex-PREMIER INDIFFERENT.
Appe ais to the People Sure to Follow tn
Proceedings

Irish Votes VIII Probably Decide Whether
9arneIl VIII be Leader-Club RumOrs
that Parliament VIII be Dissolved In
February-Tories More than Satisfied
With the Political Situation.
LONDON, Dec. 8. Notwithstanding the
attempts at compromise the Irish con-
fict has assumed an internecine charac.
ter that will not soon be changed. The
appeals to the people that are sure tt
follow yesterday and to-day's proceed
ings will, it is expected, show whether
Parnell is to remain dictator of the Irish
Home Rule party, and all indication &
point to his popular endorsement in Ire.
land.
The proposed surrender of the Irish
constabulary to home control would not
for moment be accepted by large sec.
tion of the English Liberals who have
hitherto supported Mr.. Gladstone, and
this Mr.. Gladstone is well aware of.
The Tories are more than satisfied with
the situation, which means an almost
certain victory upon the dissolution OF
Parliament. The Liberals are Disguised
with the Irish majority for allowing Par
nell to dictate the terms of his surrender,
when they had a clear majority against
him.
The Irish members who visited Mr..
Gladstone last night are extremely re-
luctant to give the particulars of the in
terview, saying they desired to wait until
after to-day's conference.
1t is understood, however, that Mr..
Gladstone In no way pledged himself as
to the course the Liberal party would
follow, imputing that he was himself I'M
able to define the policy which the Lib
eral party of England would pursue in
dealing with the position where it now
finds itself placed.
Mr.. Gladstone listened to the deputa-
ton with marked GOODNESS, and evi.
IDENTIFY wished it understood that he was
utterly Indifferent as to the outcome OF
the conference. Club rumors have il
that Parliament will be dissolved in
February, the government feeling con-
fdent that in the demoralized condition
of the opposition the Conservatives will
sweep the country at the general cleo
tions. The home secretary, Henry
Matthews, is to become lord justice Of
the court of appeal.

English Tramps Rushing to Londo N.

LONDON, Dec. 6.-The English country
roads are swarming with tramps, all
with their faces turned toward London,
the magnet of attraction being the news
of General Booths great scheme for pro-
viding living for everybody who cannot
earn one for himself, for this is the way
the ''plan of redemption" has been ex-
planned to the tramp population. The
disbelievers in the Generals panacea for
poverty declare their belief that after the
paupers have been removed from the city
to the country refugees or farms estab-
lished by Booth he will have to lock them
up or put an armed guard over them to
prevent them from indulging their wan
doring and idle propensities and drifting
back to the cities to be again ere
daannad

THE ENJOYS HOPEFUL.
They Make Another Statement for the
Guidance of Irishmen.

They Make Another Statement for the
Guidance of Irishmen.
CHICAGO, Dec. 6.-The Irish ENJOYS
all of thern-are still in Chicago and the
indications now are that they will re-
main here until the Parliamentary party
in London has decided one way or the
other on the question of leadership.
The most important of the cablegrams
received by the ENJOYS during the day
was that from Alderman Hooper, pro-
prietor of the Cork Daily Herald. In sub
stance it was to the effect that the dele
cation need not in the least fear the
opinion of ireland on the questions at
issue, but that it was eminently de-
sirable that the delegation should make
some further expression of opinion adj
ditional to it's manifesto of Monday last
for the guidance of the people of Ire
land. This dispatch was followed soon
afterward by another from the same
source and the members of the delega-
ton, Harrington included, were hur-
riedly summoned to confer. Their de-
alterations occupied the better portion of
an hour, and as the outcome William
O'Brien was authorized to reply. He did
so in these words:
eve have kept silent out of respect to
the deliberations of our colleagues, rely
ing with confidence upon the matured
Judgment of the Irish party and the
Irish people. We ask you not to be
misled by any hasty or nl-informed
kilograms. 1t is our Judgment that
sober opinion here is overwhelmingly with
us, and we are satisfied, and the daily
papers of the United States without ex-
ception, support us in the belief that
Gladstone's bona fides are unimpeaehable,
and that the disruption of the Liberal
alliance means destruction at the coming
general elections. If the Irish Parlia-
mentary party comes to a prompt deci-
sion, it is our conviction that the Irish
cause will occupy a more impregnable
position than ever"
Harrington, it is understood, dissented
from one of the sentences of this dis.
patch, and it was therefore sent as the
expression of opinion of Dillon, O'Brien
Gill, O'Connor and Sullivan.
Next in Importance to this correspond
ence, or perhaps exceeding it, was the
hurried visit to Chicago of Archbishop
ireland, of st. Paul, and his equally hur
ried conference with the delegation. HI
said. just before leaving, that the visit
was purely social one, and the delegates
echoed the statement with singular un
animity.

says that William Waldorf Aston would

many of them. In regard to this last
rum0r have not as yet been advised OF
any change, and rather think that if any
comes shall not hear of it first from
