MISS GLADYS EVELYN, the English lady
who brought an action for breach OF
promise of marriage in the London courts
against the American Tory correspond
ent, William Henry Hurlbert, has an in
terssting communication in the New
York World in which she denounces him
as man without one spark OF honor,
heartless and unprincip1ed to the core, a
shameless liar and perjurer. Hurlbert
has been fugitive from British justice
for over two years. Under the name OF
Wilfred Murray he correspondent with
Miss Evelyn for three years and then on
the witness stand he committed perjury.
He was defended by the Grown counsel
for having made himself useful to the
Tory government in writing against Ire
land, and after trial of seven days the
jury rendered decision that there was
uot sufficient evidence Of q promise Of
marriage. A new trial was granted and
Hurlbert fed the country. Oakley Hail.
formerly the mayor Of New York, saw
the letters under the signature Of Will
fred Murray and declared unhesitatingly
that they we're in Hurlbert's handwrit-
ing. Hall disappeared before the trial
and the plaintiff solicitor failed to find
him to testify in the case. Hurlbert has

THE HOME RULE BILL.

Before the next issue of The lR1sH
STANDARD the Home Rule bill Will have
reached the peers for their consideration
There it will be discussed till about the
middle of September and then rejected
by an overwhelming majority. After the
rejection of the bill by the House OF
Lords there will be an adjournment OF
both houses for month, after which
parliament will reasonable to resume the
items of the Newcastle programme and
push them to passage by the closure II
necessary. The Unionists are endeavor-
ing to Illustrate this maneuver and de-
clare they will allow no work beyond the
Home Rule measure this year, but the
"Grand Old Man. is not to be baked in
the scheme he has outlined for the au-
tumn session. He is determined to full
ill his pledges to the British democracy
whose representatives have adhered to
him with unfaltering fidelity during the
fight on the Home Rule bill. The oppo-
sition, however, will resort to every
stratagem to prevent the passage OF Brit
ish measures as they know that Glad
stones object is to strengthen himself at
the polls when parliament is dissolved
for another electoral contest. "Judas"
Chamberlain has foregone the pleasure
trip with his American wife to this coun-
try in order that he may be in the house
to lead the obstructionists. He has
usurped the place of Balfour as leader
to the utter disgust of the Tories who
dislike the Birmingham demagogue for
his impertinent pomposity and arrogant
assumption. sOne of the London cor
RESPONDENTS says ''ro see the cultivated,
patrician Balfour sit in hale meekness
under the contumelious domineerlng OF
this coldly malignant, audacious, square
iawed screw manufacturer, who ten years
ago was stumplng the country for the
annihilation of the aristocrats, and is now
ruthlessly forcing himself upon their
necks as their boss, is great and moving
object lesson in modern British politics"
The Irish and Radical members are
jubilant over the autumn session, and the
former will be constant in their attend
ance to give Gladstone the requisite ma
jority4n passing bills for the benefit OF
the English workingmen, such as the
registration bill, parish councils bill and
other measures. Next January the Irish
Home Rule bill will come up again to be
sent to the peers for the second time
When again rejected i dissolution will
take place for an appeal to the country,
and there is no doubt of the result. The
English Radicals will vote to man for
the Liberal party and return it to power
with an increased majority. The Home
Rule bill will go to the upper chamber
for the third time and if then rejected
Gladstone can ask the Queen to ennoble
a few plebeians to force the passage OF
the bill. If the veteran sta esman lives
another year he will assist at the opening
Of the Irish Legislature in Dublin.
