WHAT HARRINGTON SAYS.
Why He Refused to Sign the Manifesto Re-
pudiating ParneII.

why AC AsSAuScu W tut IhduhcsUO nc-
pudiating ParnelI.
CHICAGO, Dec, 1.-Mr. Timothy Har-
rington, the only member of the Irish Par
liamentary delegation now in this country
who refuses to sign the manifesto repudiat-
ing Parnell, said in an interview:
Yes, unfortunately, differ from my col.
leagues here, and therefore 1 have been un-
able to sign any manifesto issued by them
in opposition to Mr.. Parnell's leadership.
There are no men in the Irish party have
a deeper affection for than some of my COL
leagues who are here with me in this dele
cation, but I value utility and the welfare
OF course 1 fully recognize the difficulty
which Mr.. Gladstone's letter has raised, and
l appreciate to its full extent the injury
that may be done to our cause at the ap-
preaching general election by anything
which would dampen the enthusiasm of
even a considerable section of the Irish Lib
eral electors. But that does not alter the
justice OF the case. If few years ago when
Mr.. Gladstone was introducing his home
rule bill he had made it condition that
Mr. Parnell shuuld be deposed from the
leadership of the Irish party, the Irish peo-
pie would then have Indignantly secuted
his home rule bill and his proposal. To
my mind nothing has since occurred in Mr..
ParnelPs discharge of his duties as leader;
there has been no public act Of betrayal OF
his country or his party which could justify
us in standing less firmly by him now.

back to die beside Valentine, whose lainting
spell thus seems like an un-caused death.
For the most part the needed "cuts" were
very judiciously made, nothing OF vital i'm
portance being omitted.
HIGH PRAISE MERITED.
Taking into consideration the difficulties
inevitably attendant upon the opening night
OF new house, the performance, as a whole,
merits high praise. The haII-hour lateness
in beginning, the Commute waits between
the acts and slight general uneasiness and
uncertainty upon the stage, are readily con-
doned under these conditions. The nliSe-en-
scene was mostly accurate and handsome,
even II the barge was not equipped with
state-band and sailed rather
stIff1y. The costuming was excellent. Con-
ductor Neuendorf had chorus of e1cep-
tional size and reasonable vocal quality,
which at times sang thrillingly and at other
times not by any means so well. The
orchestra numbered "a men hut it did ad-
mirable service Tor its size, though, OF
course, no viola d'amour was there for the
famous obligato.
Among the principals the honors lie
easy between Miss Carlotta Maconda, as
Mdrguerite, and Miss Juch, as Valentine.
Miss Juch was in good voice and sang with
in the great duet her impersonatiou OF
passionate love and anxiety was
intensely effective. Miss Maconda, new
conner, displayed sweet, pure, flexible
soprano, which she managed with admirable
skill in the ornate numbers assigned to her;
her dignifed and easy bearing is also to
be commended. Mr.. Charles Hedmondt
had much the most severe task in
the role of Raoul, and it is
but just to overlook certain lesser faults and
award him cordial praise for his effective
work throughout, rising to considerable
height in the final duet Miss Louise Meis-
llnger, also newcomer. sang quite prettily
the graceful lines of Urban; Mr.. Vetta as
Marcel deserves special word, while Mr..
Stormont and Mr.. Delasco did faithful serv-
ice In their respective roles.
lnasmucn as that excellent dramatic
soprano, Miss Januschowski. and the lead
ing barytone. Mr.. Rathjens (who will both
be heard tonight in "Rigoietto'') }, are to be
added to the above list, it must be admitted
that Mr.. Locke has this time brought
to Pittsburg by tar the best troupe we have
had since the National Opera Company
gladdened our eyes three years ago.

Nadonalists Who Want Convention Called
to Sustain Him.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The following dis
patch was sent to the President of the Irish
National League tonight by Tsrne branch
OF the League, and copy thereof cabled
across the water to Mr.. Parnell. Terne
branch is one of the oldest in the city:
John Fitzgerald. President National Irish League,
Lincoln, Neh.:
O'Brien, Dillon and associates have ignored
the National League, and by doing SO insulted
all its members. They proved ungratetul to
the American-1rish organizations that did so
much for them. They have completed their
ingratitude by throwing overheard the able and
honest leader, Parnell, who has done much
for Ireland and for them. That Irish-American
opinion may not be mIsreprescnted or mis-
understood. we suggest that you call a conven-
tion of the League and of kindred Irish socie-
ties to decide if we shall have Gladstone the
Brush politician, or Parnell, the Irish patriot,
as the issue has now narrowed itself down to
that CORNELIUS j, REILLY,
President Terne Branch Irish = National
League.

RAILROAD COMPETITION,
The Pennsylvania to Try to Checkmate the
Baltimore and Ohio,


ESPECIAL TELEGEAM TO THE DISPATCH,
JOHANNESBURG. Dec. 1.-The PENNSYLVANIA
and Cumberland Valley Railroads to-day took
the first important step toward building line
from this valley to The Broad Top soft coal
regions, aud thence westward along the line of
the now abandoned South Penn. or Vanderbilt
Line. President Kennedy, of the Cumberland
Valley Road, went to Harrisburg this morning
snd lookout charter at the State Department
for the Harrisburg and Bedford Railroad
Company to exist 999 years.
Ihe application calls for line 60 miles in
length,to run from point at. or near, Shippens-
burg. on the Cumberland Valley. to point on
the Bedford and Bridgeport Railroad at or
near. Nj. dallas. IN Bedford county. The capital
stock Is 2.5O0C0O. 7. Z. Kennedy is President
and the board oi Directors is composed of di-
rectors oi the Cumberland Valley and Penn
sylvania roads. Twu-thrds of the stock is sub-
scrlOed Tor bv III" PennSvlvai ia road and one
third by the Cumberland Valley.
The action taken to-day shows that the Penn
sylvania Railroad has decided To chpckmate
the alliance lately made hy the Readinp. the
Western Maryland and the Baltimore and Ohio
roads. which are now building a line uD the Cum
berand Valley to Cherry Run, on the BaIti-
more and Ohio road, and to build th. Harris
burg ard Bedford road to get the traffic of the
soft coal region.
The road chartered to-day will bring Pbna-
delpbia lOO miles nearer the soft coal region
All the surveys made are nearly along tine old
South Penn road, which the Pennsylvania now
controls. and. when il once gets to Mt Dallas
there is little doubt that the short connecting .
link TO Johnstown, on the main line will he
built and then there will be new throuyh line
from EItrsburg to Philadelphia much shorter
than the present one. The road chartered To-
day mas already been located and it is officially
announced that the Pennsylvania and Cumber-
laIrd people viii push the work rapidly.

CORA TANNER.
The Refugees Daughter as Backgroun,
for Charming Artist.

The Refugees Daughter as a Background
for Charming Artist.
Miss Cora Tanner revealed her abundant
ability and rare personal charm in a new
character at the Grand Opera House last
night. She assumed the role of Helene in
'The Refugees Daughter" rather turgid
romantic drama in four acts by Martha
Morton. 1t is powerful charac-
ter in Miss Tanners hands, this
Helene, good, self-sacrifcing girl
with passionate, impulsive nature. The
story OF the play is an intensely complicated
one, and not particularly probable in its
most powerful parts, but the interest in the
fortunes OF Helene, which Miss Tanner is
able to keep alive from first to last, prevents
the stormy tale from growing tedious. In
the duel scene, which is essentially the eli
max of the play, Miss Tanners intensity
and naturalness carried the audience away,
and she was rewarded by long-sustained
applause. Miss Tanner is we'll supported,
Miss Ada Dwyer and Mr.. Harold Russell.
the latter as the hero of the play, being
especially strong in their delineations OF
well-marked character. The gentler, mer-
rler work OF Miss Minnie Ddpree and Mr..
Brown, as the inevitable young lovers of
romantic drama, admirably served its pur-
pose OF foil to the tragic episodes. Miss
Dupree's conscientious and thoroughly
original study of character is as noticeably
artistic as ever. The scenery and costuming
OF the play is as handsome as need be. and
tne Wnoie production worthy Of praise.

NO CAUCUS NEEDED.
Census Committee Left Free to Deal With
an Apportionment Bill.

Census Committee Left Free to Deal With
an Apportionment Bill.
WASHINGTON, Dec, About 30 OF
the Republican Representatives got together
in the room of the Committee on Appropria-
tions this afternoon after the adjournment
of the House and informally discussed the
reapportionment question. Nearly all of the
leading Republicans were present, includ-
ing the Speaker, Major Mckinley. Mr..
Cannon, Chairman Dunnell, and others.
Fhe latest political almanacs were sent for,
and the changes in population shown by
the census and the political effect of these
changes were carefully canvassed. The
only conclusions reached were that for the
present there was no reason to
hold party caucus, and that the Census
Committee should be left free to deal with
the matter.
The probabilities of the Republicans hav-
ing quorum of their own members entered
largely into the discussion. The majority
were sanguine that the party could secure
a full attendance of members if necessary.
Several of those present when asked il it had
been decided that an apportionment bill
should be passed, said that no decision was
reached, but each one personally insisted
that bill would unquestionably be passed.

SOME PRESS COMMENTS.

Views of English Newspapers Upon Mr..
Gladstone's Answer.
LONDON, Dec. 1.-The Daily News this
morning heads its leading editorial article,
political Suicide" The article contains
the following:
'Mr. Parnell seems bent on making himself
impossible as a leader, even in the future.
Mr.. Gladstone's crushing reply proves Mr..
Parnells shameful breach of faith. Mr.. Glad
stones only mistake has been the generous
one of relying on Mr.. ParnelPs honor" The
article concludes with this sentence: There
is now no argument against home rule except
ParnelI."
The Post praises Mr.. Gladstone's prompti-
tude of denial, but says he failed to state
what did take place in the Hawarden inter-
view, and this leaves him In position far
from satisfying.
