THE GLASGOW STRIKE
Some Old Business Cleared Up by
the Railways.

EDINBURG, Dec. 2S..-At a public meet
Ing held here to-day, resolutions were
passed expressing sympathy with the
railway strikers. Many clergymen were
present and delivered addresses. TAe
passenger service continues to improve
and all mail trains are running regu-
larly. There are, however, no signs of
settlement with the strikers.
HULL, Dec. 2S.-The strikers here
have resolved to accept the managers
offer of an increase of wages without a
reduction of the number of working
hours.
Owing to the small amount of their
Sunday traffic, the railway companies
were enabled to dispose of some arrears
in the transportation of freights and
coal, ores, etc. At meetings of strikers
held here yesterday and to-day it was
resolved to stand firm, ard the lord pro-
vost of the city was denounced as being
an INSCRIPTIONS tool of the railway
companies. The Midland company is
sending engine drivers north to assist
the Scotch railway companies. At the
meeting in Edinburgh to-day Principal
Rainey, reader of the Free church,
presided. He declared that labor for
the number of hours during which the
men were compelled to work was in
consistent with health and right use
of human life. The meeting appointed
treasurer to receive donations for sup
port of the strikers.

LONDON, Dec. 2S.-Having been adj
vised that he cannot bring an action for
libel with hopes of success, Capt. O'Shea
has published letter to disprove the
truth Of Timothy Healy's taunt that he
bartered his wife's honor to gain seat
in parliament. The letter is dated Stal
bridge, Dec. "a, 1890. The writer says:
"When was Liberal whip, did my
best to promote your (Healy) candi-
dature as a Liberal and supporter of MIR.
Gladstone in Middle Armagh and after
wards at Liverpool in 1885. Iquote from
a letter from Mr.. Chamberlain 70 me
dated Dec. 20, 1890, in which he says:
L assume that you will take some no
tice of the brutal attack on you made
by Mr.. Healy at Kilkenny; although
unless l am much mistaken. you will
have no legal remedy. His statements
are entirely inconsistent with what L
know of the general election of 1885.
According to my recollection, Mr.. Par
nell neglected at first to give you any
assistance, and did not do so until he
had seen letters from myself to another
person pointing out that your services
in the past as all Intermediary between
himself and the Liberal party had been
OF real advantage to both, and that such
services would be equally necessary if it
were desired to maintain any kind of
friendly relations between the Irish
Nationalists and the Liberal party. Re-
specting Galway. find that / wrote you

which letter L authorize you to publish
if you think it useful. This correspond
ence ought to afford sufficient evil
dence that no such completely ex-
listed as your traducer has
been base enough to insinu-
ate.' The letter from Mr.. Chamberlain
is marked private and is dated Jan.
%, 1886. 1t contains the following: In
the present condition of Irish affairs, it
is more than ever unfortunate that you
have not found a seat. Is there any
chance Of your standing for one of those
now vacant in Ireland? Surely there
must be an interest in the Irish party to
keep open channels of communication
with the Liberal leaders. If any posi-
bic cooperation is expected, it is clear
that great deal of preliminary talk
must be had. and doubt if any Liberal
leader is at present in direct or indirect
communication with the Irish repre-
sentatives. Certainly, l find myself
very much in the dark respecting their
intentions and wishes. Cannot you get
Mr.. Parnell's eXeQuatur for one of the
vacant seats? 1t is really the least he
can do for you after all you have done
for him."

mad bearing upon the utilization of a

well known, always treated the
Irish labor agitatOrs with hardly
disguised contempt, and refused to put
line in his programme that bore upon
any other aspect of the Irish question
than the particular one which he had
taken it upon himself to champion.
Some of the most earnest of Irish
patriots have from time to time urged
the view that at least portion of the
woes of the Irish people were attribut-
able to defects in the Industrial and So
clal system which could be remedied
without reference to the ZONE rule

upon such theories as tending to detract

demand for political self-government,

alleged by his enemies to show will

PROBABLY NO APPEAL.
Liberals Have But a Slim Chance
of Forcing an Election.


LONDON, Dec. 2S.-It is stated to-
night, on the authority of a member of
the cabinet, that parliament will GER
tainly not be dissolved until after the
passage of the tithes bill and the land
purchase bill. The latter, if not pushed
to the final stage, would give the Lib
erals their only possible chance to ap-
peal to the country on the Irish ques-
ton with confidence, as many, even of
the Tories, only accept the measure
under the whip of party discipline, and
are opposed to pledging British credit
in any way for Ireland The final pass
age of the measure is now certain in
the present parliament. as the Parnell-
ties will more than make up, it is eX-
pected, any detection in the govern
ment ranks. The tithes bill is not seri-
ously. opposed by any large body
OF Liberals, and Sir William Har-
court, who, in Mr.. Gladstone's absence.
would act as leader of the Liberals,
states that he has no idea of impairiug
the national property in tithes, and is
favorable to the general spirit of the
present bill, which shifts the payment
from OccupieT to owner, and will efface
the ground for much discomfort, and
especially in Wales. With these two
measures law, the understanding is that
the government will be ready to face
the people. There is, however, another
bill which is likely to arouse some dis
cusslon, and that is the bill for the re-
moval of the remaining disabilities of
Roman Catholics; in other words, to
make it possible for the queens repre-
sentative in Ireland to be a Roman
Catholic. This the government will op-
pose on the grounds that the officer in
Dublin should Be bound by the same
constitutional restriction that prohibits
a Roman Catholic from sitting on the
British throne.

Except the frequent quarIels in the

with whom he rode, he was perfectly

the deed was premeditated is
shown by the fact that he brought

O'BRIEN ON DYNAMITE.
Its Use in Politics Not Approved
by the Editor.

LONDON, Dec. 2s.-William O'Brien
telegraphs from Paris that he
never wrote a line in his life for the
Irish World. The article quoted in a
London paper as showing Mr.. O'Brien's
approval of dynamite methods seems to

O'Brien repeats his request that the

dynamite policy by contributing to a

LONDON, Dec. 29.-The Times declines
