the anti-Parnellites The police wit
messed the affair. but did not in
terfere in any way. After he had sue
ceeded in recapturing the Office Mr.. Par
nell went to window and addressed
the crowd outside. lie said that he would
fight the battle to the last, that he
would only allow the country to decide
the issue, and that he would submit to
the dictation of no man. He appeared
to be fercely excited, and to have lost
his usual self-control.
GLADSTONE SPEAKS.
LONDON, Dec. II Mr.. Gladstone has
gone to his home at Hawarden. At
Retford he addressed meeting OF 2. 900
persons He said the continuance Of
Mr. Parnell in the Irish leadership
would be fatal 10 home rule in England.
Scotland and Wales Parnell was no
longer the leader of the Irish
Nationalist, who had separated them
selves from him. He (Gladstone) adj
mitted that the Irish party ought to be
independent, and that the considera-
tion and settlement of this question
ought to be left to them; but there was
something beyond all considerations in
Irish politics, namely, the great cause
of Liberalism in England, Ireland and
| Scotland.
The confidential communications be-
tween the Liberal and Home Rule par
ties and the conversation with Mr..
Parnell at Hawarden in Novemb Der, 1889,
! he said, were equally satisfactory to
both parties, a fact that was proved
I -, l.
reason publicly to speak about it, but
/ by the other party. lie believed that
/ the OShea divorce proceedings would
| entirely destroy the moral force needed
/ in Ireland for any one who would be
| the leading champion of the National
| cause. The Liberals felt that in
/ granting home rule. they constituted
the Irish leader the constitutional ruler
/ of Ireland. The Liberals were unwill-
1 ing, after what had happened in the
| divorce court, relative to the private
and public conduct of Mr.. Parnell. to
make him the constitutional Gov
ernor of Ireland 1t was absolutely
untrue that Mr.. Morley had suggested
that Mr., Parnell hold Office under the
British crown before home rule was
conceded. The Liberal party's work in
Parliament was to resist coercion in
Ireland and that work was as sacred
and as urgent now as it had ever been,
no matter who might be the leader of
the Irish party.
MORE NANIFESTOS.
New York, Dec. 12.-The Irish ''en-'
voys" have issued long address to the
American people upon the issue be-
tween Parnell and his opponents. The
manifesto is signed by all but Harring
ton. 1t goes on to restate the po-
sitiOn OF the ENJOYS on the controversy
between Parnell and Gladstone in much
the same words as were used in the
Chicago manifesto. In conclusion it
says:
FINALLY our cause once rescued from
its present deadly peril. our race may
rest assured that nothing which the
tenderness OF devoted colleagues can do will be
left undone TO heal whatever wounds may have
been inflicted in the heat of strife
and to do Justice to Mr.. Parnell's genius in
his work so that history may dropa tear over
the error OF passionate hour and may remem-
Der only the great lrishman and born leader,
| who found the Irish cause plunged in despair
and whose arm has lifted that cause TO the
/ pinnacle OF power and triumph"
/ New YORK. Dec. 2-The Irish
