PARNELL's INTENTION.

the Irish Party.
LONDON, Jan. 22.-During conversation
in the lobby of the Commons to-day, Parnell
declared his intention to assert his author
ity as leader of the National party and
engage actively in work during the present
session of Parliament. 1t is claimed that a

to-day as to whether he expected good re-
suits from O'Bren's and Dlllon's efforts,

that settlement will bs effected. After the
Hartlepool Victory, Gladstone cannot hesi-
tate about giving the assurance demanded
by Parnell. Sexton said privately yesterday
that there WIS substantially settlement.

ELECTION CONTEST.
Nebraska Independents in Dilemma Througl

Nebraska Independents in Dilemma Through
Supreme Court Decision.
LINCOLN (Nebr.), Jan. 22.-The Joint
convention OF the Legislature to hear the
election contest met this morning. but at
once took a recess until o'clock in the
afternoon, when the decision of the Supreme
Court on the legality of the proceedings
was formally delivered. The court holds
that the signature of the Governor and
observation-disclosures to a concurrent resolu-
tl0n are necessary to make the acts of Joint
convention valid
This leaves the Independents in some
what of dilemma. They must proceed to
pass another concurrent resolution, and this
VIII take about six days. If Governor Boyd
refuses to sign it under tO-day's decision,
no contest can be held. They assert that a
resolution calling for joint session to con-
test the right of the Governor to his seat
should be legal without his signature, but
the State constitution is mandatory on that
point. There is some talk of their drop
ping the contest. IL they do, the only OBJ
stacle in BOyd's way will be the proceed
ings to test his citizenship instituted by ex-
Governor Thayer.

GLADSTONE KE5oICEs.
The Election of Furness Declared to Be the
Greatest Victory Since 1886.

Greatest Victory Since 1886.
LONDON. Jan. 22.-Gladstone has tele-
graphed reply TO a correspondent at
Hartlepool, who wired Gladstone his con.
gratulations upon the victory of the Glad
stonian candidate as follows: ''rhe election
is, from the time and circumstances. by lar
the most important since 1886. The limits
OF a telegram preclude giving my full mean
ing. but all must see the simple figures of
the poll reduce to dust and ashes the decar-
ations of Lord Salisbury Sir Henry James.
Goschen and the Duke of Westminster
upon what they call recent events.'"
The Daily News, commenting on the VIC
tory OF Furness in the Parliamentary cleo
tlon in HartlepOGl, says: IL is the most
splendid victory since the general election.
The Chronicle claims the election for the
labor unions, the leaders of which had told
the members to support Furness because he
had taken pledge to employ only union
labor, while Gray, his opponent, had re-
fused to take the pledge.
The Times Says the election at HartIepool
reveals danger that the Unionist should
never lose sight of.
The STANDARD says: Though it is no
guide AS to the result of a general election.
the election in Hartlepool serves to give a
point to Lord Saiisbury's warning.
