Parnelrs Defeat NJ Carlow the Greatest Po.
Litical Disaster that Could Befall Him.
Copyrighted, 1891. By the United Press.l
LONDON. July 1.-THE overwhelming
defeat of Mr.. Parnell continues to be dis
cussed by all classes of politicians. Csr-
low was one of Mr.. Parnel's s~trongholds.
He fought there on more advantageous
terms than he could have had In any other
Irish rural constituency. except West
Wicklow or North Meath. This made the
fight one of unusual interest. The two
victories gained over Mr.. Parnell by the
Home-rulers of Kilkenny and North Sligo
nearly settled the struggle, and but for the
Boulogne negotiations little would have
remained to be done to bring him to his
knees. The victory at Carlow was q
crushing disaster to Parnell. His failure
leaves him no expectation to win else
where. In Ireland charges and counter
charges still ring in the air. Traitor"
and q and like epithets are the ordl-
nary expressions used to denote abstract
differences of opinion on political ques-
tons. The politicians are having d hot
time of IL, n quiet people are let alone.
1t 10 decidedly a change for the better.
But one undoubted result of these charges
Is this: No money comes from America to
either wing. This, too. is not an unmixed
evil Money has corrupted the movement.
A little wedding ont of sunshine statesmen
and patriots would be a blessing. and the
process goes on visibly enough.
