The Tories Ma<t Another Defeat and
Parliament VIII Probably Dissolve.
LONDON, Feb. 20.-The Tories are on tho
verge of panic. Even the cool and cynical
Balfour Is excited over the proof of govern
ment weakness shown in proceedings Of the
week. The narrow escape from defeat on
the issue OF the governments Irish land
policy has been followed by another narrow
escape on Welsh issues, and has completely
demoralized the Tories and their Liberal
Unionist friends
II Is said that Balfour was strongly affected
by the manner i'm which his speech ON the
Irish local government bill was received and
that he af,erward conferred with leading
Tories In his private room al the house OF
commons. Some of the utterances at this
conference have leaked out. Balfour, II Il
said, pointed out that IL was not only use
less but dangerous to defer any longer on
the appeal 70 the electors and that every
day the session was prolonged increased th,
difficulties of the situation
He said that as a measure for the concilia
tion Of Ireland the local government bin was
a failure, and that the issue would have "a
be fought out distinctly on the question OF
parliamentary home rule. These sentiments
met with general approval, although It wa,
suggested by some Of the more timid that d
hasty dissolution would look too much like
disorganized rout. The question viii comI
up at a cabinet meeting tonight.

CHICAGO Feb 30.-Grover Cleveland's
friends in New York are not allowing any

their fight against Hill and Tammany. Ar
rangements have been practically completed
between the adherents Of the ex-president
and Mossrs. Drake, Parker & Co., whereby
800 of the biggest and most influential Cleve-
land men viii be quartered at the Grand
Pacific hotel during the Democratic CON
vention. A correspondence has been going
on between the hotel people and Mr. Cleve-
lands friends for some time regarding hotel
accommodations during the time the con
yention is In session. The correspondence,
were it made public, would make interesting
reading but Colonel Parker said that il was
fully understood that the 500 Democrats
would be Cleveland men, who would come
here prepared to wage war against the Hill
machine.
''The delegation viii include Democrats
of national reputation said Colonel Parker,
''but we have agreed not to make public any
Of the names of those who are coming, but
it will be a Cleveland contingent out and

who heard the news are happy that the fight
in New York is getting warmer. Some took
il as an indication that among the 500 Cleve-
land men would be seventy-tvo delegates
selected by an opposition convention who
would carry the fight right into the national
convention. Others declared II meant mere

She told OF her illness and fruitless APP
peals for assistance. Upon the advice Of

Accompanied by her mother she went to
Augusta, and in driving from the depot to

ing in front Of a hotel When she reached
the front door he entered the back, and was
at once pounced upon by his mother, who
led him 10 an upstairs bedroom and locked
him in, refusing 10 let her see, speak, or
communicate with him by messenger.
Subsequently Mrs. Blaine smuggled the
/ young man out Of the house and TO the rail-
road station at.Gardner, where it was pro-
/ posed he should take a train for Portland
and sail for Europe Mrs. Blaine learned Of
| this programme ana lett by the same Tram.
At Gardner, however, Mrs. Coppinger In
terccpted her brother and destroyed the last
chance for reconciliation between husband
and wife. After this she again wrote numer-
GUS letters to her husband, registering one
TO make sure Of his getting il.
She then told Of her financial troubles and
her theatrical contract with Frohman, and
the illness that left her a cripple. She said
that she was now able 70 support her child
by her writings, and she could probably ne
sume her theatrical work. She said she
came TO Dakota TO establish bona fide resi-
dence, in order to get legal control Of hei
son. Her testimony was clear, convincing
and won the sympathy of all.
