The Reconciliation Beaten at the Last
Moment by 'Kickers."
William O'Bren has issued a long state
ment on the Irish parliamentary party sit
uation. He says: "The experience Of the
past five weeks, gathered in personal in.
terviews, letters and newspapers con.
firms my conviction that only IA hearty
reunion can save the Irish cause II is my
duty to sOlemnly declare that no difficulty
existed which a little more sacrifice OF
personal feelings on both sides might not
have surmounted. No useful purpose can
be served by publishing the details of ne
gotiatioEs, and | have, therefore, decided
to regard them as confidential, but ] think
that none of the parties concerned will
seriously question that on the main points
substantial agreement was established
Shipwrecked by Words.
Il cannot too strongly express with what
feelings we found the settlement ship
wrecked at the last moment by mere con.
tests of words which offer shockfngly
inadequate excuse for committing the
country to a struggle involving appalling
consequences. Hampered at every step by
misunderstanding section Of the
press and also by responsible
persons who seemed to resent any attempt
TO give less barbarous character to the
conflict, and reconciliation impeIed by
persons fatally deceived as to our own and
our opponents strength, the irreconcila-
bles of all sections have carried the day.

their deulorable work"

Parnell has written to O'Brien, saying:

Do not fear that the cause is lost, al.

They have not yet been entirely unsuccess-
full in advancing it. On this YOU may
congratulate yourself. l am sure that the

Dillon says that he and O'Brien will
come to England to surrender, and begin
their six months Imprisonment.

The discord now existing in the
democratic party in the city of
Chicago was caused by one Carter
Harrison, who from selfish motives
has engendered i'll feeling and je"-
pardized the interests of the party.
Although the democrats had nomi-
mated their candidate, it was as
serted that the race was not pO-
lilical one. and that every demo-
crat had The right to vote for
whom he pleased. The sequel is,
the party in Chicago Is wrecked,
and the fact remains that it was u
political instead of a non political
election. He, who from selfish
designs, will hazard the interests of
his party Is not a patriot, but n
