DILLON AND O'BRIEN
WIN Have Nothing to Do With
Parnel and His Fight.
THE GREAT FIRE ESCAPE HERO
Dwindlins in Public Estimn-
tIon and His Cause Going to the
Doss--Prominent Parnellltes See
Their Hopes Waning.


Ceprigkt.d By hs Nao Yors Associated Pro't.
LONDON, July S1.-Messrs. Dillon and
o'Bricn's reputation of Parnell, though
a foregone conclusion, has profoundly
depressed the Parnellites, who relied
upon belief that both would suspend
public announcement.
Mr.. Parnell sought, through private
communications made on the ever oi
their release, to resume negotiations
but neither responded to these secret
overtures. Mr.. Parnell hoped until the
last moment yesterday that he would
again entangle them in manouvres fora
reunion. Their prompt and decisive
declarations as soon as they were out
side the prison doors, and their refusal
to listen TO any advances from the Far
nellites, fell like death blow ON the
Parnellites.
The last flicker OF hope went out
when the Lord Mayor of Dublin and
other devoted Parnellites vainly tried
to induce Mr.. 0'Brien, who was sup
posed to be more ductile than Mr., Dill
lon, to reconsider the position. Mr.:
O'Brien bluntly declined renewal OF
the Boulonge negotiations or any ap.
proach thereto. When the attitude OF
the released leaders became definitely
known the chief Dublin Parnellites
held meeting privately and had a
warm time disputing over the course
they should take. An intimation
reached them Of the desertion Of the
party organs in Dublin and
Belfast and several members OF the Par
nellite committe withdrew, leaving
the steadfast adhereuts to pass resolu-
ton denouncing Dillon and 0'Brien
and urging Mr.. Parnell not to yield.
To-day Mr.. Parnell telegraphed to the
committee that defefections on every
side would not make him alter his
course hairs breadth. He proposes
on Sunday to speak at Thurles, the
strong ecclesiastical centre in ireland,
probably, anew to hurl defiance at the
bishops and to prophesy his future
triumph.
But the truth now penetrating the
stoutest Parnellite hearts is that their
cause is nigh extinct, and that 1t will be
useless to continue the struggle. II
continued it will no longer have con-
stitutional character. The composition
Of the League sections now adhering to
Parnell points to the reversion Of the
faction to the old Fenian type. 1t is
safe to predict that Parnell will soon
appeal for the support of revolutionary
partisans abroad.
Mr.. Parnell's personal embarrassment
does not appear to have been relieved
by marriage. He has made an extraor-
dinary claim against Captain 0'SheN
for G3,6O0 advanced to him between
September, 1889, and November, 1890,
partly during the period Of the divorce
proceedings. Captain 0'Shoa denies
the debt. Curious disclosures are ex-
pected on Mr.. Parnell's attempt to
prove the claim.

kegs OF powder in the Alabama Great
Southern depot exploded about mid
night last night completely wrecking
the building and demolishing a number
of cars on the adjacent side tracks. A
fire was noticed in the building before
the powder exploded, but there was
scarcely time to give the alarm before
the explosion followed. The depot was
almost entirely consumed with all its
consents. II Is believed two men Loaf

night set the building on fire.

A Lot Moro UncIoan Municipal Matter
Exposed Among tho Mercantile APP
praisers.
PmLADELrHA, Pa, July S1.-City
Treasurer Wright has written letter
to Auditor General McCamant in ref
erenco to certain practices in connection
with the mercantile appraisership sys-
ten in this city. From the facts
grouped together by Treasurer Wright,
it appears that the glaring abuses have
existed and especially in the collection
OF delinquent mercantile taxes.
Last year 6,559 delinquent suits were
brought before magistrates at q cost OF
S31, ,l94 20, resulting in the securing of
judgments in but 240 cases and the col
lection of s2,075 80. The State was
thus mulcted for S2S,S67 20 in this
single item. In addition to this 10,367
names were stricken from the list by
the appraisers after they had been paid
62l cents per name for classifying them
and had advertised them at an addi-
tional expense Of 81 so per name to the
State.
Treasurer Wright charges that ex-
emptions have been made for political
reasons, and with any diligence the ap-
praisers should have known that the
persons afterwards exempted should
not have been put in the list at all.
In all it is shown that $667, 900 of State
money was wasted in this way last year.
For the present year the appraisers
have returned the large number OF 10,979
delinquents and have exempted s,77S
persons, while only 1882 have paid the
tnX.
