LONDON. Nov. 11.-Mr. Timothy Harrington
has written letter in which he charges Mr..
William O'Brien with concealing the most Inn
portant part Of the Parnell correspondence In
the negotiations held BY the Irish leaders
In Boulogne at the beginning OF the present
year. when dissension first arose in the ranks
OF the Irish Nationalist. As q proof OF the
assertions. Mr. Harrington cites letter which
Mr.. Parnell wrote to Mr.. o'Brjen In January
last suggesting that Mr.. Justin Mccarthy OBJ
tain satisfactory assurances from the Glad
stonian party that they would continue to act
in good faith with the Homo Rulers. Then
Mr.. Parnell constituted Mr.. O'Brien Chairman.
he himself retiring in the latters favor Mr..
Parnell. however. made the Presidency OF Mr..
OBrien an absolute condition. Mr.. O'Brien
thereupon wrote a letter In which he proposed
that his election to the Chairmsnship be effected
without public conditions Of any kind being
exacted. and solely under private UNDER
standing. Mr.. OBrien said he would seek an
interview with Mr. Gladstone Immediately
after his election for the purpose OF obtaining
declarations from the leader Of the Liberals as
to what the future action OF the Liberal party
was to be In regard to the Irish land. police.
and judiciary questions. II the replies to these
inquiries were Of an unsatisfactory nature. Mr..
O'br1en WAS TO resign the Chalrmanshlp IN

March 3. 1887. which prescribe that 1t shall be
the duty Of the Attorney General to proceed

that 1t shall not lie lawful for the Church to

enormous property. that 1t had invested a

This afternoon the Common Council
will take look at the Bali 40," and
the twenty acres adjoining it on the
south, owned by Henry F. DeForest. of
Schenectady, y. Y. The latter prop
erty IS Of the same general Topographic

lie - a gentleman OF about 40 years of
age. slightly grey, pleasant conver-
satlonai!s.. and gentleman OF culture
and travel lie has been mayor Of
Schenectady several terms. 1--WE expect
TO remain here few days longer any
way" he said last evening. "Grand
Rapids is naturally very beautiful
city. and exceptionally so for an in
land town. The buildings here, and
especially the public buildings, are
such that they may we'll command
pride. About the park property, do
not ask? Well, TO be candid. the "Ball
Forty" is one of the handsomest bits of
nature that you will find IN many a
days travel. My property is naturally
all one piece with it, and it
seems almost designed by ma
ture for a park. There are ravines.
wooded tracts containing almost every
wood indigenous to Michigan, level
spaces and so on, that make it a beauty
spot Of nature. It's seldom, indeed
that a spot is found that can he made
just as rustlcally beautiful park
should be, for so small an expense.
Then, too, its location is very central.
With the extension of the electric light
lines, the property will become con-
venient, and also very valuable. /
haven't made up my mind what offer
shall make TO the council for the sale
of the tract, bit / have decided to
make it very advantageous one
for the city. The fact is that may be-
come q Grand Rapids citizen myself
before long. / could retain the prop
erty, and by plating it into city lots,
realize much more from it than to sell
1t in It's ensirity. / certainly could rea-
llze from 81 500 to 81 500 an acre for it
not an extravagant figure ut all for
city acreage, as central and beautiful
as that. No, can't tell you my acre
age figure for It, but II will be very low.
1t Will give Grand Rapids her only park
OF any dimensions, and one that will
be famous for Its beauty"
