LONDON, Oct. 20.-John Dillon's speech eulo-
giving Parnell has considerably softened the
feelings of the Parnellites toward him, and
especially as it was coupled with a Reputation
of the attacks in the Dublin Catholic on
Parnelrs memory. There ia now believed to
No one doubts the truth of Dillon's statement
that he loved Parnell and there is only one
speech Of Dilion's on record in which
he antagonized Parnell strongly and that
was on the subject OF the Paris fund.
and delivered few days before Parneils death.
Before going to Jail Dillon had been careful to
keep a moderate course. He hoped that dis
sension would come to an end before his re-
lease,
Upon beisg liberated he threw his lot in
with the McCarthyites, but he never used per
sonally abusive terms regarding Parnell,
and the utmost charged against him by the
Parnellites is that, when an offensive term
was used in his presence he failed to
rebuke it. There is no proof that he heard it.
and if he did he probably thought it best to
ignore it. Dillon is undoubtedly considered
bv the tories the strongest man OF the two fac
tious and the most positive and commanding
character.
DUBLIN. Oct 20.-The F,eemdn's Journal to.
day says that a strong feeling in favor Of q de-
termined effort in the direction of RECONCILIATION
exists throughout the country. The JOu,rnatadds
that if the measure of home rule granted by
the liberals is inadequate it will again become
necessary to coerce them into submission.
This could only be done by united party.

Che present contract simply SAYS in the CITY
OF Washington and its more densely populated
suburbs" and which, il strictly construed
10 the District of Columbia, might be held 10
exclude Georgetown sntirely.)
II should specify definitely the kind Of ve-
hicles in which the garbage shall be trans
ported and which, In the opinion Of the COM
mittee, should be either q cart or wagon hav-
ing tight body or box, with means for
closing IL up tightly, 20 as to prevent the es-
cape Of odors a. 1t passes along the streets
In this connection We may add that We were
shown at the health Office . model of a garbage
wagon that seemed to be all that could be de-
sired In that respect. Whose il was or whether
in use anywhere We did not learn.
The contract should, of course, give the Dis
trict authorities supervision Of the dumping
stations, with the right TO change their foca-
ton If necessary and Of all the appliances used
including the barges for its transportation, TO
the end that all shall be kept in . sanitary con-
dition.
There is still one other suggestion and tina.
lie whether in view Of the possible adoption of
some other and permanent plan in which the
District may want to assume the service there
should not be in the contract o reservation Of
the right on the part Of the District to termi-
nate the contract upon six months or years
notice.
fair that the District should agree to purchase
from the contractor 50 much of his plant or
outfit as tie District could utilize at a fair val
uation, to be determined by arbitration in case
the parties could not agree on price, az other
wise contractors would be compelled TO make q
higher bid in order to save themselves from loss
by the termination Of their contract in less
than Its full term. We merely offer his sugges-
ton for consideration.
The committee believe that with such regu-
lations strictly enforced, and with the hearty
cooperation OF the citizens, the service may be
greatly improved and that il can be performe ed
with profit to the contractor at Q much less
cost to the District than it otherwise would be-
1t is quite probable that at first sight some
citizens may think such regulation too exact
ing, just as they did in reference to the plumb
ing regulations when first adopted, but
they should bear in mind that
it is for their benefit az we'll
as that OF the entire community. We cannot
see how any intelligent citizen can object to
any reasonable regulations necessary to secure
better performance of this service. nor do we
believe they WILL if they give the subject the
attention it deserves.
