NOT FAINT-HEARTED.
Gladstone Sees Great Possibilities
in His Majority.

LONDON, July 21.-Mr. Gladstone is
communicating with the leaders of the
Parnellite party in an endeavor to OBJ
tain an absolute assurance that the party
will support him with its whole vote in
an attack on the government by mo
confidence" amendment. The negotia-
tons are likely to be prolonged until
the matter is submitted to plenary
meeting of the party after parliament
assemblies. In return for pledge of
an unbroken vote, section of the Anti
farnellltes want written assurance
from Mr.. Gladstone as to the time of the
introduction of the home rule bill, with
some notifications satisfactory to Irish
ideas.
Although Mr.. Gladstone knows that
hasco is certain without the full Irish
vote, ne has shown no symptoms of a
faint heart. Speaking to little group
at klrmichael yesterday, while driving
to Pitlochry, he said: ''Do not be dis
c0uraged because our nominal majority
III the house of commons is not very
large. 1t will comfort you to know that
L nave sat in twenty-five parlianents,
and in five have seen Liberal govern
mentS in Office doing great deal of
work for the country with not such a
majority as has now been returned
Inc Fall Mail Gazette, commenting
on the speech, says that there is no sign
here that -Mr. Gladstone intends to post
pone his home rule measure or to do
anything else cowardly or discreditable.
On the contrary, he looks forward with
zest to the interesting experiment of
governing with small majority.
The st. James Gazette says the five
Liberal governments MIR. Gladstone re-
ferred to had a real mojority. Though
1t was small,it could always be reckoned
ON. Mr.. Gladstone cannot rely OIL fac
ton votes.
Mr.. Gladstone left Pitlochry for Ches-
ter this afternoon. He was given an en-
thuslastic reception upon his arrival at
Perth, and some of his admirers pre-
sented him with baskets of fruits and
flowers. He looked we'll and showed no
sign that his campaign had affected his
health. His intimate friends deny the
rumors that he is in poor health. He
drove thirty miles yesterday in an open
carriage, feat which. if the reports of
his enfeebled condition were true,
would have been impossible. In the
short address he made at Kirmichael
his voice was good and showed no sign
of weakness

The play was resumed promptly at
B:30 i'll the afternoon, and Ronald was
pitted against young Tom Foley. The
explanation should he made that Ronald
was in unusually poor form. He works
all night and had just arisen from his
bed, and every billiard player knows
full well that it is impossible to attain
speed under such conditions. Of course
me went to a defeat, bnt hereafter he
will play in the evening instead OF aft
ernoons, and this will give lin an OPP
portunity Of showing his normal play.
Foley started in the game at a rafting
pace. At the conclusion of the eighth
inning lie had scored an average of
eight points and gave promise of play
ing the strongest game titus far in the
tourney. But the balls began to break
badly, and he got several ZerOS. Still,
he finished his leo points with an aver
age of 31%. He made run of %, or
one point mere than was made by Estes,
who had previously held the high run.
The evening witnessed three exciting
struggles. Capen, who had won the
best average, WAS pitted against Sum-
mers. an unknown quantity. Summers
had not played and the other candidates
for the trophy felt a little nervous about
his speed. But Summers scarcely did
wouldn't indicate it. but one watching
the game must confess that Summers
lis i'll it, He played in execrable
luck. A dozen or more shots were
missed by the thickness of Il sheet of
paper, and had they counted Capen
might have been retired. AS it was,
Capen won lC0 points to Summers 81.
The second game of the evening
created Il deal of excitement. 1t was
between the speedy little Minneapolis
boy and Hatch. Doherty played a fast
game, and soon had command of the
situation. This seemed to disheartin
Hatch, who certainly has talent, and
who can play pretty billiards. Doherty
won 100 10 %, his high run was %. But
he had a humber of runs in the double
figure, demonstrating that he is dan
gerous element i'll the race for the
GLOBE cup.
Wilder set his admirers wild by de-
feating Glow, a fav0rite. And he de-
feated him so numerically that it was
really cruel. But Glow was not Glow in
the game. At times he plugs tout of
sight," while in this particular game he
seemed absolutely lost. Wilder won
100 to 81, with an average of 2M. Doh
erty'S average was the best for the
evening, 81.
This evening there may be more sur
prises i'll store. Glow will play Snyder,
Estes will play Dickinson, and Thayer
will play WeiSenberg. Everybody is de-
lighted with the series. and the GLOBE
