At conference of the liberal unionist
association at Manchester Sir Henry
James presided. Sir Henry was attorney
general during Gladstone's last admins
tration; but he was and is opposed to
Gladstone's schemes for the establish
ment OF home rule for Ireland. In his
speech opening the meeting Sir Henry
claimed the recent experiences in Ire
land, referring to the serious fractional
fights OF last week, proved the policy of
the liberal unionists the only correct
one. A letter from Joseph Chamber
lam was read. He said the Gladstonians
had lost confidence in the home rule
movement, and they are trying to pass
bill to establish home rule, sardwiched
between more alluring proposals. The
duke of Argyle, in speaking of the mo-
tion to support the general policy of the
government, described Gladstone as
fanatic who is incapable of argument"
His followers, according to the duke,
we're mere puppets.
The public was taken into the conf
dence Of the diplomatic branch of the
government Tuesday in the continua-
tion Of the hearing in the Sayward case,
and the first announcement that the
prolonged diplomatic correspondence
between Secretary Blaine and Lord
Salisbury had resulted in an agreement
by which, with the consent OF the
senate, the pending dispute over the
seal fisheries in Behring sea would be
definitely settled. The inference, as
drawn from the developments Tuesday,
including the statement made by the
attorney general to the representative
of the Associated Press, as shown, is
that the president will submit to the
senate an agreement in the nature OF a
treaty between the United States and
Great Britain by which both parties
bind themselves to accept as final and
the definition to be given by
the arbitrators of the exact rights OF the
United States in Behring sea, as we'll as
to pay any award of damages suffered
by the nation declared to have had
true contention.
