Parnell's Parliamentary Colleagues Decide &c
Keep Alive Their Leaders Quarrel
LONDON, Oct 12-Mr. ParnelPs parlia.
mentary colleagues have issued the follow
ing manifesto:
ireland has lost her leader. but her
cause remains-the duty to the living and
dead to maintain, erect and unsullied, the
flag OF national Independence. You. the
people OF ireland, gave into the hands OF
Mr.. ParneN and his parliamentary col
leagues tho charge of your political inter
ests and the honor and safety of the national
cause. You asked us by constitutional
means 10 restore prosperity, peace and
freedom 10 our country, and animated by
his spirit, guided by his clear intelligence
and hrmness OF soul, we carried the cause
TO point at which the tower of victory
could be seen by all men. But in an un-
fortunate IhOur majority of the Irish rep.
resentatives, at the bidding of an English
statesman, broke our ranks. abandoned the
flag on independent opposition and ranged
themselves as followers and satellites OF
the British statesman. We refused 10 be-
come parties to the treason relying upon
the national conviction, and maintained
intact the allegiance TO the independent
National party. In the conviction that the
people would justify and support us.
The great leader is dead, but the cause
lives on. Relying on your devotion TO
Irish nationality, we propose 20 carry on
the struggle until the principles for which
he lived and died triumph, and the nation
al unity is restored. The parliamentary
party is pledged to work for Ireland under
the nag of an independent opposition abso-
lusely free from the control of any foreign
power or party. This is our resolution Its
realization depends on you. 1t involves
sacrifices and struggles. and we call ON YOU
to make them. True to the principle that
we are the instruments of the people we
have resolved to call q convention of rep
TQGanfQf1VA tYrSlmQn in ha nm
of the nation the means whereby TO carry
ont the policy and programme he be-
queathed in dying.
M'CARTHYITES NOT WANTED.
ITO our ranks we shall welcome all honest
men who believe that the political affairs
of Ireland should be controlled and directed
by the representatives of the Irish people
alone; but with men who are Immediately
responsible for the disruption of the Ma
tional party, who. in obedience TO foreign
dictation, bounded to death the foremost
man of our race. we can have no fellowship.
In their guidance Of Ireland there can be
no safety. Between them and the men who
stood true to the cause of national inde-
pendence, Ireland must choose. On the
threshold of the tomb of the leader we
mourn was defined our duty in these I'M
perishable words:
"If am dead and gone tomorrow. the men
fighting against English influence in Irish public
life must fight on still They will still be
Independent Eatiopalists. they can still believe
I'm the future OF Ireland a nation and still
protest that it was not by taking the orders OK
an English Minister that Ireland's future could
be saved. protected and secured
'Fellow-countrymen, let il be the glory
of our race at homo and abroad TO act
up to the spirit of this message. God Save
Ireland"

TT. o'coNNoRs VIEWS.
Mr.. L. II. O'Connor. member of Parlia-
ment for the Scotland division of Liver
pool. in an interview to-day regarding the
situation of Irish parliamentary affairs,
said: "The strongest desire of the majority
is not to stand between the nation and the
restoration of unity. With this object in

portant convention which was TO have
been held in Cork. have been postponed.
| We desire TO show our profound respect
and grief in the most emphatic manner.
Among the political opponents of Mr. Par
nell were men whose affection for him per-
sonally was as deep and warm as that OF

Concerning the chances of q reunion OF

was anticipated from the first that the

into a state of temper in which reason is

pass away, while sorrow for the loss OF

yesterday, in spite of the terrible appeals

welcome sign that the Irish people will be
ready in due time 10 consider the political
