Views of the English Papers In Regard 60
His Future.

LONDON, Aug. 1o-lSpeciall-T
STANDARD, in an editorial, says: ut is
clear that Gladstone cannot long count
on the support of either of the Irish
parties. While he ignored Redmond's
questions, 1t Is doubtful whether the
assurances he has given to Mccarthy
will satisfy the Nationalists either in
Ireland or America"
The Chronicle says: eve doubt
whether the grafton delivered by Glad.
stone will be ranked among his finest
efforts. 1t is only when no stands at
bay that his oratorical genius scars to
its highest flights. Yet it was mas.
terpiece OF adroit allusiveness.
Everybody Know that while he dealt
laboriously with tho speeches of Goschen
and Mccarthy, 1t was only Redmond's
demands that troubled him. and he
solved tho problem with consummate
skill and dexterity. Nobody can saw
that the ignored Redmond, yet nobod y
can say that he even once recognized
his existence" The Chronicle contends
that the most important passage in the
speech vas the promise to proceed with
the Newcastle programme oven IL the
house of lords rejected the home rule
bill Nothing else, the Chronicle SAYS,
Is wanted to whip up the English opln-
ion in favor of home rule, But tho OBJ
stinate refusal of the peers to deal with
the matter Is prudent spirit.

AN UNEXPLAINED OMISSION.
Thousands OF Postmasters Want Their

WASHINGTON, Aug 10.-lSpeciall-
Considerable disappointment is felt at
the Postoflice Department,over the I'M
explained omission from the sundry
civil bill of an appropriation of $1,000.
which had been asked for. to enable the
sixth auditors office OF the Treasury
Department, which audits postmaster's
accounts, to employ twenty people for
six months, at tho rate OF $500 per year,
to assert several million paid money
orders which have accumulated. and are
hourly accommodating, in the office. and
which in their present state prevent the
settlement of thousands of postmasters
accounts
When the sundry civil bill was pro-
and the department understood that it
was going through all right. Employees
were selected, being out of the olass,-
fed service, and most Of them had been
notified to report for duty on the 18th
inst. The fact that no provision had
been made for their payment was not
discovered until yesterday, whe it was
found necessary to rescind all action in
this respect The omission of this
item will cause vexation and delay to
thousands OF postmasters throughout
the country who desire q settlement of
their money order accounts. There
are several million of these money Or
der blanks, representing business tran
sacted at various offices, now stacked
up in the storage rooms OF the sixth
