PARNELL'S ENJOYS.
PHILADELPHIA, April 10.-Two of the
Parnell envoys, William Redmond and
John OConnor, appeared before a public
meeting, held under the auspices of the
Parnell branch Of the Irish National League,
IN Horticultural hall, In this city Tonight.
The attendance was small, the hall not
being more than half filed. Mr. Redmond,
the first speaker, was very impassioned in
his delivery, and he often aroused
the enthusiasm of the audience to a
high pitch by his expressions of loyalty to
MIR. Parnel. Mr.. Redmond gave O graphic
description Of the scenes in the committee
at the time of the assembling Of the Irish
p Elementary party for the election of a
leader last year. He said they were then
united i'll favor of Mr.. Parnell's continuance
as leader; yet five hours later, through
the efforts of MIR. Gladstone, there was
hopeless disunion. Mr.. Parnell should not
be condemned politically for his private
faults. He was sorry to say that the prin-
cipal opponents of Mr.. Parnell in Ireland
are the clergy. Had it not been for the re-
cent active interest and Interference Of the
priests in the Sligo election, the Parnell
candidate would have been elected.
MONEY NEEDED.
On the question of funds, Mr.. Redmond
said that previous TO the recent trouble Mr..
Parnell had carefully saved money for cleo
tion expenses. The recall of the envoys
last fall made 1t necessary that this money
should be used for the object they were
working for, the evicted tenants fund. He
said the money was needed IN the coming
general election, "and should it be said that
for want Of paltry few thousands of dol-
lars an opportunity for a satisfactory cleo
tion should be denied the Parnellites? We
come to see what the friends of and belieY-
ers in Mr.. Parnell will do. The Mccarthy
ties will not come to America and ask
for money. They don't need to;
they will have plenty of English money
in their pockets" collection was then
taken, John J. Cosgrove acting as treasurer.
In few minutes it was announced that
$1,000 had been received. Mrs. Parnell
occupied a seat on the stage, and refer
ence to her by Mr.. Redmond as the 'honored
mother of the great Irish leader" brought
forth hearty applause.
MRS. PARNELL SPEAKS.
Mrs. ParneiI, looking vigorous and speak
ing in clear tones, followed Mr.. OConnor,
who spoke briefly after Mr.. Redmond, in a
speech that reused her hearers to intense
enthusiasm. She said her text was her son,
Charles Stewart Parnell, and Gladstone.
They stand opposite to each other, as in
olden times stood the friends and foes
of England. Ny son is friend
of Ireland, and Mr.. Gladstone is not a
friend of Ireland He is above all other
Englshnen representing intense English
sentiment. He is a VOLTA VOLTS pup.
[Applause.1 AS for my son, all who know
him know what he is. La the Bible read
that leaders were called saviors. Ny sou
has been the savior Of Ireland. II you do
not believe in him, you must take your
place with Healy [hissesl who betrayed
him with kiss. The men who are trying
TO drag him down are English slaves"
Mrs. Parnell was very bitter in her de-
nuuciation of Mr.. Gladstone, attributing
her sons present trouble to him.
Mr.. O'Conuor's speech was brief, simply
detailing the efforts of the Irish members
Of parliament in behalf Of liberty for Ire
land. When the Irish nationalist leaders
were here in November last $l3, 600 was
raised by subscriptions and otherwise.
