II was waged bitterly. and the methods OF
some of his opponents excited harsh criti-
cism; but now that the struggle is over it ia
only fair to say that the defeated have sub
mitted with a good grace. The great body
of the Episcopal church, and a multitude
outside, will congratulate him heartily to-
morrow.
The ceremony of conservation will be
held in Trinity church, in this city, the
house of Worship the parish which he has

him has become the foremost Episcopal
parochial organization in New England.

but criticism will find little else to deal
with in the spectacle.
The Right Rev. DIR. John Williams, of
Connecticut, the primus or presiding bishop
of the Episcopal church of the United
States, will be the consecrator, unless his
age and feeble health should at the last
moment prevent. He is rs years old and
his residence is at Middletown. The rules
of church government provide that the pre-

nothing in his Judgment prevents, but he
may delegate his authority if that seems
best. Everybody hopes to see the venera-
BILE bishop Of Connecticut at the head Of
tho ceremony tomorrow; and it is earnestly
desired by the clergy Of Boston that he
shall use on this occasion the beautiful
crozier which was presented to him by the
members of the Scotch Episcopal church in
recognition of the fact that it was f.om
the Scotch primus in the last century that
d.. Samuel Seabury, the first bishop Of
Connecticut, received his conservation.

LIFE OF PARNELL.
Written by T. r. O'Connor, Promptly or

Written by T. r. O'Connor, Promptly on
the Market
LONDON, Oct 13.-T. P. O'Connor's life
of Parnell has appeared, a book of 223
pages All previous biographies accord to
AYondale the honor of Parnel's place of
birth. O'Connor says he heard Pafnell
state that this was incorrect and that he
was born at Brighton. Among, the
earliest influences were the stories
he heard from servants and from
his mother, thoroughly hostile to the exist
ing relations of England and Ireland.
These made Parnell the man he became.
OConnor traces Parnell's life through and
speaking of his early parliamentary career.
says: "In the present moments,
when passionate friends of Parnell
denounce his opponents as murderers
it is we'll to recall the fact that
Parnell undoubtedly helped to break poor
Isaac Butts heart and hasten his end. The
hand that struck him down after the d.
vorce disclosures was his own. Strangely
enough, the idea that he would some day
ruin himself was familiar to his colleagues
for many years, owing to his hermit life
and instances of alteration of mind"
O'Connor never regarded Parnell as
saws he was essentially narrow, and to this
narrowness O'Connor attributes the final
mistake of his life. When Mccarthy, be-
fore the last momentous meeting IN the
committee room, told Parnell what Glad
stone had said, his reply was to pooh-pooh
the whole business as II mere non-conform-
ist howl which would die out if defied. One
reason for his attitude WAS his latent dis
like for Englishmen.

the most important statements in the
woman's story is that she knows
that Tascott is dead. She says
she knows that he was stranRled

the names Of Funkhoussr, Marston and

rather mysterious affair in connection with

premier and the minister of agriculture
called upon DeGiers and had conference
with him. DeGiers and Marquis di Rudini

there is no special motive in the visit other
than that attributed to the czar's desire to
show that he is determined to maintain the

The Italian statesmen are highly pleased
with the attitude the czar has assumed in

strengthen the general peace policy of the

Judge Pemberton this afternoon in the sum
of $4,000 each. Judge Pemberton listened
to arguments on both sides in the habeas

the only question for him to determine is,
whether the evidence is proof of guilt. or
whether the presumption is sufficient to
raise doubt in the mind. He realized
that the killing OF Penrose engendered a
