LONDON, Feb. aO.-It il stated that Arch
bishop Walsh is IN communication with
other prelates Of the Roman Catholic
church in Ireland on the subject Of taking
disciplinary measures against such OF che
clergy as persist in adhering to ParnelL
The archbishop argues, it is reported, that
the issue is not one Of politics, but OF mo
rality. and that the clergy have no right 20
take the side Of man who has been c0m-
victed Of parnell's ofTense in the O'Sher
case. Archbishop Walsh is deeply irrltas-
"a by what be calls "unbridled insolenec''
Of Mr.. ParuellA followers toward the Irislt
hierarchy. The priests are to be thoroughly
organized with a view TO political work In
their respective parishes, and will bc eS-

Ii is suggested that Roman Catholics
who persist in attending parnellils mcet-
ings and countenancing the Parneli asissi-
tion may be sent to the bishop Of the dio-
cese for absolntion, instead OF being dealt
with by ordinary confessors. The circular
Of Bishop Maegivern Of Dromore, ia which
he denounees Parnell in the severesf Ian
guage, and virtually prohibits his flock
from attending parnell meetings. is he
lieyed to be the prelude OF the organized
action suggested by Archbishop Walsh

The bishop says that he had hoped thas
the poisoned atmosphere Of the divorces

and 90 the priests, and was laudation OF
