Healy Causes a Tremendous
Uproar.

was erroneous. On the contrary the reso-
luton was in support of Parnell.
The Nationalist met at noon to further
consider the question of Parnells leader
ship. All the Irish members in London
were in attendance. Parnell occupied the
chair. After the meeting had been called
to order one of the members read the
manifesto issued yesterday by the Catholic
hierarchy in Ireland declaring that in con-
sequence of the revelations of the O'Shea
divorce case, which convict Parnell OF one
of the graveSt offenses known to religion
and society, Catholic Ireland cannot ac-
cept as leader man wholly dlshonoredi
that the continuance of his leadership,
would imperil the cause of Ireland. The
reading of the manifesto was greeted with
cheering by Parnell's opponents.
Clancy offered his amendment which
provides in view of the difference between
Gladstone and Parnen the party whips
be instructed to obtain from Gladstone,
Morley and Harcourt, before any other
consideration of the question, information
on the departure from the bill of 1886 made
by Gladstone in his suggestions affecting
the control of the Irish constabulary and
the settlement of the land question. a pro
longed debate took place on the amend
ment. Parnell minated that if the party
took the responsibility off his shoulders
and insisted upon the Liberal leaders, pro-
missing to carry a respectable home rule bill
through commons in the face of all opposl-
| ton, he would retire from the leadership.
He asked the meeting to accept Clancy's
resolution whereupon he said the alliance
between Nationalist and Liberals would
| be renewed. Healy refused to sumbit to
Parnells stipulation. Hedeclared they were
even beyond the lines of compromise sug-
gested1 at yesterdays meeting. Sexton
declared a majority of the members were
firmly determined to adhere to the main
question and would simply vote that Par
nell must resign.
At 6 o'clock p. m. the meeting adjourned
| till noon tomorrow.
A rumor was circulated this afternoon
to the effect that Clancy's amendment had
been rejected. Inquiry proved there was
no truth IN the rumor. On the contrary,
the latest phase of the situation bids fail
for an agreement. A committee has been
appointed to wait upon Gladstone and en-
deaVor to obtain from him the assurance
desired by Parnell The committee con
mittee consists of Parnell, Sexton, Healy
