LONDON. June 24.-Mr. Gladstone's home
rule scheme, which conservatives are ac-
customed to assert is still in embryo, has
been actually communicated in detail to
Lord Rosebery, John Morley Sir William
Vernon Harcourt and other liberals. Some OF
its more critical points have been discussed
with the Irish leaders, and the as
surance that IL the general election
places Mr.. Gladstone in power the bill will
be presented at the autumn session of par
lament. Concerning the production and
passage Of the home rule measure, Mr..
Gladstone is more than ever an old man In
a hurry. He knows that be must under any
circumstances face another election before
he attains tho final triumph OF his life in the
completion of Irish legislation. If he passes
the bill In the House of Commons next year
it is certain TO be rejected by the House OF
Lords. This would involve fresh appeal
to the country. Even if the peers were at
once submissive to the will of the people
and allo wed the measure 70 become a law,
the alteration Of representation in the i'm
perial parliament consequent thereon would
require another general election, while the
initiation Of the new Irish administration
would draw heavily upon Mr.. Gladstones
energies. For these reasons he Is eager that
there should be no delay in passing the
home rule bill. He will pRrLy lift
the veil from his plan in the addresses be
will make in Midlothian. A representative
Of the Associated Press has learned that the
leading features Of the measure of 1856 will
be retained with the following exceptions:
Clause 4-restricting the powers of the
Irish legislatures enlarged by further de-
fining the limitation of the powers of the
legislature to interfere with the endowment
Of religion or 10 impose disability OF confer
privilege on account of religious belief.
Further guarantees relating to denomina-
tional education are provided for. Next the
constitution of the legislative body will be
modified by raising the number Of members
of the first order IN the upper house, who,
as in the first bill, shall hold office for ten
years.
The much disputed clause 25, removing
Irish peers from the House of Lords and
Irish members from the House Of Commons,
disappears in the new bill, the representa-
ton of Ireland in the imperial parliament
remaining the same as at present to meet
the threatened activs refusal or passive
resistance of the Ulsterites to the Irish
parliament by the non-payment Of taxes.
Subsection Of clause 10 of the bill Of
1886 is TO be extended so as TO insure the
employment Of the police and military
forces TO enforce the payment of all taxes
leviable by the Irish parliament. Another
alteration relates to disputes arising between
the Irish legislature and the imperial
government. Lord Rosebery recently made
reference TO some tribunal dealing with
these differences. This was wrongly inter
preted by the irish members to mean
the creation Of a body like thesupreme
court of the United States. Lord Rosebery
really referred to the retention of clause
25 Of the old bill, providing that
the judicial committee on the privy council
should decide constitutional questions relat~
ing to the powers of the Irish legislature.
Mr.. Gladstone is understood as proposing to
appoint fixed number of Irish judges to
sit with the judicial committee when Irish
questions are discussed. Apart from these
notifications the measure of 1886 remains
intact.
A comparison Of the forecasts of the re-
suit Of the elections shows that the official
estimate of the liberal managers is a ma
jority of l47 for Mr.. Gladstone, including
the Irish members. The liberal unionists
estimate that he will have majority of 40,
including the Irish, thus placing the liberals
in absolute dependence on the Irish vote.
The official conservative figures give the
unionists q working majority of 30. Inc
Pail Mall GGzette'S calculation.
which is based on an analysis OF
the bye-electious since 1886, results
in majority for Gladstone OF "a, only IA
over the Irish votes Balancing the reports
from various sides, an impartial forecast Is
that Mr.. Gladstone will obtain majority
that will enable him to act Independently Of
the Irish party.
Among the incidents Of the week is a re-
markable letter sent by Prof. Tyndall to
the Dublin interstate convention. The let
ter says he occupies no post, receives no
wages, enjoys no pension. Money in driblets
comes to him occasionally from precarious
sources. Recently his publishers sent gl03
to him in payment for two books. OF this
money he gives 9100 to the Ulster move
ment and retains &3 for himself. The pro-
fessor denounces the evil genius Gladstone.
and blames "Archdoctrinaire" Morley 'for
first planting the microbe of repeal in the
brain Of his venerable friend" "Mr. Nor
ley, :" the professor adds, was once a man
of elevated mind now he is degraded 20
the level of a professional politician"
Prof. Tyndau predicts that the
first loyalist bloodshed in Ulster
for Ezr7 the sake of Archbishop
Walsh and Timothy Healy will rouse
feeling that will sweep Mr.. Gladstones
Irish policy to perdition. The total num-
Der of candidates who will stand in the
elections is 156 Nearly all the go seats In
the house will be contested. Few Catholic
candidates will stand in England. There
will be only ten Jewish candidates, of which
number four are liberals, four conservatives
aud two liberal-unionists.
STANLEY ON THE STUMP.
Henry NJ. Stanley, who is to contest
Lambeth in the unionist interest, made bis
first stump speech to the electors to-day.
He proved lame and awkward speaker
and slgnally failed in making ready re-
sponses to the "hacklingn of his audience.

declared that her husband was the
finest man in England. She
added: What he says be means
without fear or favor" This eulogism won
Mrs. Stanley's hearers, who yelled 1--WE
will vote for Stanley Missions The secre-
tary of the home office has written Mr..
Stanley that his certificate of British nation
ality is perfectly valid as during the period
OF twenty years he showed a residence in
England while a period Of over five years is
sufficient to qualify for citizenship.
Timothy Healy finds it dangerous to
openly appear in the streets Of Dublin. He
