tion Of the liberals, tho present political

TOUR OF THE ENJOYS.
CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-Thonas Power O'Con-
nor authorizes the Associated Press TO make
for him and HIS colleagues the following
statement ia answer to tho statement pub
lished in this country and telegraphed to
England that at conference yes
terday the Irish ENJOYS had decided to
abandon their American tour: 1T is
not true. No such decision has been
arrived at. It is true that we have post
poned the holding Of q number OF meetings
which had been arranged for. Tnis was
done chiefly because TO have held them
would have necessitated the separation of
the party, which was deemed mad yisable
under the existing c)nd tions. Further
more, we felt that il we held them we would
be obliged To speak Of matters concerning
which wo deemed it inadvisable to talk.
Our attitude is simply one of expectancy.
a will so continue until some definite
decision is reached on the other side."

"Mr. Gladstone he's openly abandoned the
position Of moral elevate which he assumed
laLely. II he rejects Nj. Parnelrs proposals
he confirms MIR. Parnelrs position as leader
Of the Irish party"
The Chronicle says: "And the ParnelI-
ICES have committed what looks like a
serious blunder. Nothing but undoubted
success can justify their tactics"
he Telegraph understands that Mr..
Gladstone, intinating through party whips
t1at second interview with the Irish
deputatioa was Unnecessary, conveyed also
the opinion that the question at issue was
net one affecting Conditions under which
home rule might be granted 60 Ireland, but
related rather 20 the retention Of Mr.. Par
nell in the leadership of the nationalist
party or his dismissal therefrom. The op-
ponents OF Mr. Pernell are much discour-
aged at this turn OF events. which leaves
them moro completely than ever ia Mr.. Par
nell's hands "Unaer any circumstances.
