Parnelrs letter admitting the inaccuracy
OF the amount attributed to Dillon's draw
ing from the eyicted tenants found has
brought to pause the wretched contro-
Versy IN the Irish commoners' ranks which
really centres in the desire of each side tC
obtain control of the Paris fund. Parnell
brought out the fact to day, that in mete-
ing out the same treatment to Dillon and
O'Brlen which he has already meted out
to the Healyites and Liberal leaders, he is

declare that Lord Salisbury declined
openly to display friendship which might
pc interpreted as a disregard of the drie-
ound. The French crews are disappointed

less brisk than the Englishin firing solutes.
Little is hoped for from China's naval
action, but the movement is welcomed as
an Indication that the pressure of the
powers has had its effect.

France that Italy would co operate with
those nations, if combined action was
necessary, out u the powers declined to
act, Italy would herself send a feet TO
Chinese waters to act Independently and
Immediately, if necessary, to protect Italian
subjects. The English colonial office has
Just assented to the appointment of a
Chinese consul at Hong Kong for one year,
as an experiment.
The government has notified Sir Julian
Pauncefote, British minister at Washing
ton, as result of correspondence with
Lloyds to bring under the notice of the
