The o,Brien-parnell Correspondence.

New YORK, Dec. Gin consequence of
the publication of misleading versions of
the cablegrams between Parnen and

O'Brien cables Parnell as follows: 81

against you in the struggle which opens
such an appalling prospect Of ruin and dis
grace to our cause. Throughout this I'M
happy business l have abstained from one
word personally offensive to you and have
read with the deepest pain and disgust
some of the personal attacks made on you.
And now before Ireland is irretrieyably
committed to ruinous conflict, | ap-

years been proud to follow and as friend

you not see some way by which while safe
guarding your own reputation the country
may be saved from the destruction which

Parnell replies, December s as follows
| "Had you wired prior to Saturday some
suggestion from me might have succeeded.
| 1t is now too late for me to reserve the
seceders from the false position. | shall,
y
| suit with you on your arrival in Europe
O'Brien replied to this to-day "Your
reply shows total misunderstanding of
my message, which was prompted by re-
gard for your past services and q still ex
listing personal affection, and with the
knowledge of my colleagues in the earnest
hope that you might, in consonance with
the will of the majority of the party whose
election of chairman we have endorsed
find a way by which the country might be
saved from ruinous conflict. The tone Of
your reply leaves little ground for hope
but having regard to the horrible conse-
quences to the country of prolonged in
ternicine struggle, l am still anxious u
have an interview and shall start Saturday
for France on my way to Ireland"

This is the complete slate as nominated in

Of ignoring the north and sending two Sen

Parnell will be the guest of the lord mayor
of Dublin. There will be large process
sion on his arrival and he will address the

gram was received from the delegates in
