LONDON, Oct. 21.-The Parnellites, un-
der the leadership of John and William
Redmond. are preparing to make trouble
for Mr. Gladstone. Unless the government
will assent to the introduction of bill
giving financial aid and compensation to
the evicted tenants in Ireland they will
withdraw their support froms the Cabinet.
Several anti Parnellites, moreover. have
agreed TO follow the same line of action.
John Morley, Irish Secretary, will vote to
grant the Parnellites' demands, but the
majority of the Ministers will insist upon
the necessity Of fulfilling the pledges given
to the Liberals that the whole session
next winter shall be devoted TO the dis
cussion of English measures. The ultimate
decision Of the government will depend
upon the strength Of the Irish detection.
The Parnellites will get their eviction bill
If Mr.. Gladstone's majority seems likely
TO be reduced TO the danger point and the
fate of the government becomes involved.
The anti-Parnellites have arranged to
hold a conference with the Parnellites
early in November with a view toward
restoring harmony between the factions.
They have been weakened greatly of late
by the disaffection of John Barry and w.
r. Reynolds and the reports that others
are about to desert their organization.
Justin Mccarthy evidently feels himself
too old TO stay the process OF disintegra-
ton, and he offered to resign the leader
ship in favor of Arthur O'Connor, John
Dillon or Thomas Sexton. Dillon and Sex
ton. aided by Michael Davitt and William
O'Brien. have succeeded. however. in in
ducing him to reconsider his offer. They

seats in the House of Commons. 1t is re-

Sexton the post of Irish Commissioner OF
ent is an opportune time for breaking the
rule of the Nationalist against the Brit
ish government.
Mr.. Gladstone is busy drafting the Welsh
disestablishment BILL He is drawing, as
usual, upon his marvellous resources to find
a new way out of the old difficulties. He
has discovered already a simple solution of
one problem. He will contend, for instance
that church of Wales exists, but merely
the church Of England in Wales The first
clause of his bill will constitute the exist
ing sees into a Welsh church under the
archbishopric of ST Davids. The subse-
quent clauses will specify the details of the
disestablishing process.
The Conservatives have started a report
that Mr.. Gladstone will abandon his candi-
dature for the Midlothian district at the
next election because of fears that he would
be defeated. At thes last election his ma
Jority was about $50. and these figures the
Conservatives say, promise to fade away
entirely at the next contest The report of
Is pure fiction. In his last interview with
his election committee he gave and received
assurances that his connection with the his
toric constituency would be maintained.
The Indian government cabled to London
on Tuesday to advise urgently that such
duty be placed on the import of silver to

and the price of rupees. The dispatch was
debated in council at the Indian Office with
the result that the suggestion of the Indian
government was condemned untimey.
The Earl of Kfmberly's response is under

home government heSitates to take any
action in the matter before the currency

has been unable to sell bills.
Financial houses here concur in expecting
the United States to call for gold loan,
resulting in a large rise of the rates. The
Statist holds that only the repeal of the
Sherman act can restore confidence in
America By continuing their present pol
icy of obstruction, it says, the silver Sena-
tors in Washington may oblige the great
capitalists who recently sent gold TO the
United States under the belief that the
Sherman act would be repealed to withdraw
their loans. IF gold should again begin to
be shipped from New York, adds the
writer, we shall have another scare
The sportsmen and their newspapers are
mourning over the decadence of the turf.
Never before has the list of titled patrons
