REDMOND WRITES A LETTER
Reply Of the Irish Leader 10 the Grill
CismS Of 0'COnnOr.
SAYS HI has BEEN nISREpRRSEHTED
II Is Not the Intention Of the Parnellltes to
Throw Gladstone Out OF Power
and Restore Salisbury.

LONDON, Nov. 3.-October 80, T. p.
O'Connor, president OF the Irish National
League, OF Great Britain, sent letter to
the general manager OF the Associated
Press, criticising the Parnell wing of the
Irish party and accusing them Of desert
ing Gladstone. Today John Redmond,
leader of the Parnelltes, writes to the
general manager of the Associated Press
in reply. He says the attitude OF the
Parnellites has been misfepresented;
that it is not the PRONUNCIATION of new
policy; that the policy of the Parnellites
toward the liberal party is precisely
what it has been all along. The Par
nellites are willing to support the liberals
as long as they remain true to the
pledges to Ireland, but are absolutely in
dependent, and mean to let them know
that by pattering with home rule they
will convert the Parnellites from sup.
porters into opponents. 1t is not the
intention of the Parnellites 10 throw
Gladstone out of power and restore Sails
bury. What they intend is to give the
present government to understand that lite
existence depends on the Irish votes and
that the price to be paid therefor is adj
herence to the pledges on the question OF
home rule. The reason for calling atten-
|
OF the liberal party toward home rule
has entirely changed since rarnell'f
death. Gladstone then declared thai
Ireland blocked the way, and the Only
way to get legislation for British inter
ests was to assist and pass home rule
but now it is proposed to hang up home
rule and take up long list of British
reforms, forgetting the promises Of I
strong fight if the house of lords re
jected the measure, in order, as the.
claim, to be able to carry the next cleo
ton.
Redmond admits the truth of thi
claim, but says it is the intention of tn
party to see that only the proper kim
OF British reforms are proceeded with
and that the elections are not indef
nitely postponed, otherwise home rul
will be hung up indefinitely. He dc
clares if the Newcastle progre N is CARRIE
out, home rule will not come up again i
five or six years.
