LONDON, July 31.-1Associated Press,
Copyrighted, 1891. Dillon and O'Brien' s
repudiation of Parnell. though foregone
conclusion. has profoundly depressed the
Parnellites. Parnell hoped until the last
moment to again entangIe them in ma
neuvers for reunion. Their prompt and
decisive declarations, as soon as outside
of the prison doors, and their refusal to
listen to any advances from the Parnell-
ties, fell like deathblow upon that fac
ton. Today Parnell telegraphed to his
committee that the defections on every
side will not make him alter his course a
hairs breadth. He proposes on Sunday to
speak at Thules, the strongest ecclesias-
tical center in Ireland, probably anew to
hurl defiance at the bishops and propnesy
his future triumphs. To fill up the gaps
left In the committee by the deserters,
another syndicate is forming aspiring to
found daily paper on the s.Parnell-
Pence" principle. One Dublin evening
organ remaining faithful appeals to the
party TO rally and not succumb to stage
fright because they lose O'Brien.
But the truth is now penetrating the
stoutest Parnellite hearts that their cause
is nigh extinct and 1t will be useless to
continue the struggle. 1t is thought that
Parnell will soon appeal for the support of
the revolutionary partisans at home and
abroad.
William O'Brien was finally adjudicated
bankrupt today at the instance of Lord
Salisbury. He will come to London to
try to arrange a conference with Parnell
and Mccarthy in regard to the Paris fund.
Mccarthy, at the instance of Parnell, al
ready agrees to withdraw $4,000 to meet
legal expenditures incurred when the
party was united. Whatever OBrien's
plan may be, there is small hope that Par
nell will assent to release the fund unless
he shall be permitted to control its dis
posal.
Parnell has made an extraordinary claim
against Captain 0'Shea for $4,000 ad-
yanced to him between September, 1889,
and November, 1890, partly during the di-
vorce proceedings. Captain O'Shea denies
the debt. Curious exposures are expected
on Parnell's attempt to prove the claim.
1t is announced that Parnell intends to
enter an appeal against the decision of the
bankruptcy court that his plea of nom
residence as grounds for not paying the
costs in the O'Shea. divorce suit was un-
tenable
The government training college bill,
which practically proposes to endow two
large Catholic colleges IL Dublin and one
very minor Protestant college, has caused
a revolt in the Conservative ranks. Bal
four, however. is still fully resolved to re-
sort to plan to provide capital for the COL
leges from the funds at the disposal of the
Irish education boards. The bill, there
fore, can be postponed.
