How ParneI's Death Is Regarded by the
Pross and Prominent Men.


Pross and Prominent Men.
LONDON, Oct S.-Justin Mccarthy said,
in an interview yesterday, that il would
be impossible TO forecast the political
effect of the death Of Mr. Parnell He
hoped that 1t would lead to the reunion
of the Irish party, and it would certain.
. ly not hinder the cause of Home Rule.
He believed that all Irish hostility to
Parnell was swallowed UP in genuine
and universal regret.
Three weeks ago he had long and
friendly conference with Mr.. Parnell at
his (Mr McCsrthy's) house in Chelsea.
They mutually agreed to draw part of
the Paris fund for the expenses Of regis
tration, incurred before the division of
the party. Before the divorce proceed
ings he had been a close friend of Par
nell, whom he admired intensely.
"Parnell consulted me" said Mr.. Nc
Carthy, "about his lamentable manifesto,
and | used all efforts to prevent its be-
ing issued, because it made his leader
ship impossible" "
The Right Hon. j. Chamberlain said in
an interview that the death Of Parnell
might influence the government to go
to the country on present legislation,
but it was more likely that the Cabinet
Id endeavor to pass the Irish Local
Government bill. There would be a dair
prospect of that being done should the
opposition adopt the same attitude to-
wards the bill, as towards the English
Local Government bill. The general
election, he thought, would be held late
in 1892
The Dublin Mail" says that mauy of
Dow oil l,if
would be shocked by the suddenuess of'
his death. For months past he looked
as If he had been breaking down under
the stress of battle too severe for even
a strong man.
Although his cause was hopeless, he
was still a thorn in the side of Mr.. Glad
stone, and might have influenced cleo
tions. Now the battle for home Rule
must be fought on its own merits. All
the same every generous heart would
lament the tragic death of the Irish
Rienzi." "
The Dublin 'Freeman" says that one
of the most remarkable careers in mod
ern times had been brought to an early
and sudden close. cat such a moment
it would ill-befit the Irish nation to put
aside and discard the memory of the
bright days when Irishmen regarded
SudTl6S DIsWdTJ IuInSll Win commence
in his integrity, honor and devotion.
1--WE claim that great effort should
be made to close with death the sad his
tory of the last few uneasy months of
| fratricidal strife We appeal to the
people throughout the country to be
moderate and calm, and to join in that
| national unity, without which we hon
estly believe it impossible to predict the
final triumph of the Irish cause"
Omitted Ireland, - in an editorial says
that the Captain of the Irish people has
been done to death by the taunts of
lrishmen, who have broken the heart of
their leader. 1t ironically asks whether
| their cheeks are pale and their hearts
are chilled at the prospect of what their
callousness, cruelness and pitless
treatment have effected. 1t quotes the
taunts of Timothy Healy, threatening to
drive Parnell to the grave or the lunatic
| asylum, and satirically asks whether
Healy is happy now that the grave is
open for Oh Q who was in the glory of
manhood, a son of Ireland nohler than
Grattan, and greater than O'Connell,
full of the love of Ireland.
The Dublin Evening Press,n NC
Carthyite) says that Parnell death is a
terrible lesson to those who thought that
the Irish nation should take Parnell's
life as the lease of Ireland's safety. They
almost pretended that he was God-like
and undying. We cannot forget, even at
this moment, that they calculated
joyously on the death of Mccarthy to
place Parnell in possession of the Paris
fund. God bless the faithful people did
not fail to see that the nations cause
did not depend in the mortality of men.
Parnell is dead and Ireland lives. If all
the leaders of the Irish cause had passed
away with him, Ireland's cause would
be fulfilled.
