DUBLIN, Dec. 10.-The newspaper,

bany owning the paper, and acting in that
capacity no to-day seized the plant OF tho
paper, stopped the issue of the current
edition and elected tho acting editor, Mr..

Campbell, Mr.. Parnells private secretary
and Mr.. Mahoney, member of Parliament,
were present when the seizure was made.
When MIR. Bodkin entered the office he
found Mr. Parnell In possession. Mr..
Parnell, In the presence of tho other di-
rectors, read the terms of association
under which the company was organized
and ordered the sheriff to eject Mr., Bod
kin. The latter made an Intellectual re-
sistance. A desperate row occurred in
the down stairs office between the sherifr's
Officers and tho sub.cditors. Sticks and
stools were used as weapons and the air
was filled with flying missiles Finally.
after sharp and fierce struggle, the sub.
editors were put out Of the building.
The news Of the seizure of the pape
created great excitement In Dublin, and
mob surrounded the ofllcc MIR. Parncll
later addressed the staff, the members OF
which promised to serve him during the
:cmainder Of the crisis. Mr.. Parncl
placed Mr.. Leamy in charge of the paper
Late tonight strong party of Mr.. Par.
nell's opponents made descent upon and
recaptured the office OF United Ireland.
The invaders destroyed all the 'ieaders'
which had been prepared by Mr. Leamy,
who was installed Us editor TO day by Mr.
Parnell, and turned oil the matter they
found into the fire. They took possession
OF the ledgers and other books and docu-
ments belonging to the concern. All this
was done in the name OF William O'Bricn
A strong posse from various labor s6cic
ties has been left rs garrison, with in
structions 10 remain on guard dayand night
to resist with force any further intrusion
by Parnell and his friends, 1t is stated
will appear TO morrow,
a tremendous crowd greeted Parncll at
the rotunda, and showed appreciation OF
him. He afterward spoke at three other
places to immense throngs.
Mr.. Healy on three occasions was booted
to-day. The last time he tried to address
the people when the crowd made a rush
for him, hustlingihim around and smashing
his hat down over his eyes. A man named
Morgan was arrested for assaulting hin
with stick.
The anti Parnell members OF the Irish
parliamentary party have issued their
promised manifesto 10 the Irish people.
In this they say:
"Wc are bound TO protect our country's
cause at whatever personal sacrifice. W.
found ourselves under the sad necessity
OF terminating Mr.. Parncll's leadership
II would have been easier 10 have left him
undisturbed, but such course would have
left every man of us a traitor 10 his coun-
try
The manifesto continues. "The final
question which rests with the Irish nation
is, lose all for Parnell, or win all wi,hou,
him. Home rule with Gladstone is safe
The signers say they refuse TO abandon
Mr.. Gladstone for Mr.. Parnel or to Insist
on the Liberal leaders revealing his plans
for home rule, which action they say
would be to foolishly give an advantage TO
Irelands foes.
The signers say that Parnclrs fatal
manifesto was an appeal to tho hatred
between the people Of Great Britain and
ireland and makes it impossible for him
hereafter TO cooperate with the Liberal
party. The signcrs never deserted MIR.
Parnell, but he them, and the honor of
Ireland Is safe In their hands through
good or evil fortune. The signers OF the
manifesto Pledge themselves To remain an
independent party, thus insuring final
victory for the Irish cause under the
auspices OF the alliance OF the British do
moeracy and the British people.
The manifesto concludes thus:
"Fellow countrymen, the issue we sub
init to you Is one upon which the fortunes
OF our country must depend May God
defend the right"
There are forty seven signatures at
,aohed to the manifesto, headed by that OF
Justin Mccarthy.
