Evident Purpose ot the InCendiary WI o
Fired the Capitol at Madison.
MADISON, Wis, Oct. 9.-As yet the
state authorities have been unable to
discover clue to the origin of the fire
in the state capitol on Saturday night.
The fire was evidently the work of an
incendiary, as it is plainly evident that
it broke ont in two different places
amongst old paper and refuse. A
Waterman on his rounds a half hour be-
fore it was discovered, found no fire
then. The records Of the land office
are in an adjoining room, Immediately
under the land office, and there is a
growing suspicion that the purpose of
the iucendiary was to destroy these
records.
Coy. Peck this morning issued in
structions to Superintendent of Public
Property Won Briescn intended to give
better fire protection at the capitol.
Some time ago the Governor had a
chemical fire extingulsher placed in each
room Of the building, but none have been
touched, since none of the men knew
how to use them. and in fact many did
not know they were there. The en-
pioyes will now drill regularly each day

THEY QUIT GLADSTONE.

Parn8Iijt9 Members Of Parliament viii No
Longer Support the Premier.
DUBLIN, Oct. l0.-The speech made
last night at the Parnellite meeting held
in the rotunda here by John Redmond
the Parnellite leader and member Of
Parliament for Waterford, has caused a
sensation here and throughout political
circles in Great Britain, for it indicates
clearly that the Parnellites will no
longer support Mr.. Gladstone or his
policy.
Mr.. Redmond discussed the home
rule situation and remarked that the
whole question had undergone fatal
change. He said that the situation they
had met to consider was one Of deadly
peril to IrishnFen; the home rule qucs-
ton had been hung up by the
Liberal party in Parliament and
the independent Nationahsts who
consented to submit to the rciec-
ton of the home rule were either
Irish cause at the present moment Was
menaced by a deadly peril which was
the inevitable result of the Nationalists'
surrender to the English. The late
Charles Stewart Parnell's prediction is
fully justified, said Mr.. Redmond; there
was no use in deceiving the Irish peo-
pie into the belief that the British
people who had taken up home rule
acted from any other motive than
necessity and only when they realized
that the British interests were i'm
PcriIled. The danger, the speaker
claimed, lay in the fact that Ireland no
longer blocked the way. The Liberals,
according to Mr.. Redmond, had
hung up Eome rule for an en-,
tire year until 1894 at least and
now they intended to proceed to
the consideration of English reforms
without having settled with Ireland. SO
soon as the voters of Great Britain
realized that Ireland would submit To-
this. Thus, Mr.. Redmond added, was
a large part of Mr. Parnell's life work
undone and home rule would disap-
pear for a generation or more. More
over he continued, what kind of home
rule did Mr. Gladstone offer? The hill
of last session, the speaker claimed.
vas dead, and the next one would un-
douhtediy be a further compromise
measure.
Mr.. Redmond then criticised at
length the course of the votes of
names were greeted with groans and
misses The Parnellite leader then
said that il was strange thing, when
Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Morley adj
mittcd that the bill did not give full jus
tice to ireland, that an Irish member of
Parliament was to be found who would
declare in the name of the Irish race
that this bill, with its humiitating re
srictons and degrading limits, fully
satisfied the nationaists demands.
In conclusion Mr.. Redmond made
definite announcement to the effect
that at the coming session of Partia
mcnt he and his followers would de

vision in the lobbies on the English
questions. This statement of Mr.. Red

they concluded he had told the truth.
They united his hands amt feet and,
leaving him gagged and hlindfoldcd,

bor near by, where he was cared for all
