London Sept s.-The explanations OF Justin
Mccarthy and John Dillon In regard TO the cir
cular issued In the name OF the 1r1sh party APP
pealing for funds leave the Healyites as greatly
dissatisfied as ever. The Executive Committee
Of the Irish National Leagn" of Great Britain
assumes the responsibility for issuing the crcu-
lar but fatty denies that It forwarded copy Of
the letter to MI Gladstone 10 any member Of
the Ministry. Taking this denial for what II Is
worth 1t Is inexplics bic in the face OF the no"
well-known fact that 1900 copies OF the circular
were distributed /, was obviously general appeal
TO the English Liberals to contribute 10 the irish
Parliamentary Fund and Messrs. Mccarthy Dbl
lon and O'Connor must have been cognizant OF
IT, The affair assumes the proportions Of n mat
ter Of first importance assisting Tin Healy
10 seize control Of the next meeting of the Irish
party, when the matter Of electins an executive
officer 10 succeed Mr.. Mccarthy VIII be acted
upon. Mr.. Mccarthy Is certain 10 retire from the
presidency at the expiration OF MS term. ana
Healy apparently has II in his power to name MS
successor II not 10 assume the office himself.
Mr. Sexton maintains a discreet silence In re-
gard TO the turn OF affairs. and the belief

the fact that he has discovered. as everybody
else has that he compromised himself by his
assertion IN the course OF debate In the House
of Commons that neither 10 the Government
nor 10 any wealthy English partisan OF Irish
Home Rule has any member Of the Irish party
been indebted for a penny nor VIII any OF them
ever be. This declaration Is the theme u sarcas-
tic comment on the part OF the Unionist organs,
and Mr. Sexton Is no doubt ashamed OF his posi-
tive utterances in view Of the subsequent devel-
opments.
Michael Davtt however. strikes a different
attitude. He warmly defends the acceptance OF
the contributions OF Mr.. Gladstone and Lord
Tweedmouth. and frankly says he wishes that
more Liberals would follow their examples Mr..
Davitt refutes the charge Of want Of indepen-
dence in taking the money. No possible humil-
alton OF the Irish party. he declares is associated
with the acceptance Of this money. any more
than there is in the receipt and app!c3 ton OF
funds from any other URGE. He accuses Mr..
Healy Of being a malignant enemy TO the unity
OF the party. and says that he would make
model Parnellite OF the later school. Mr.. llealys
suggestion that the contributions Of Mr. Glad
stone and Lord Tweedmouth ought To be re-
turned Is ridiculed by Mr.. Davitt. who insjnuates
that Hcaly, for his own advantage. would not
hesitate to accept any mans money. The pres
ent outlook Is that the unshot OF the whole
affair will be the triumph of Healy. temporary
though II may be. The Healyite members already
number thirty In the House Of Commons, and
they are likely to obtain accessions through the
Observation-Disclosures affair they threaten to
control the Irish party. Mr.. Heay is making
rangements to start In Dublin a daily newspaper
devoted to his interests In the mean time the
Parnellite members complacently relying
upon the disruption OF their opponent factions
as a means Of strengthening their own position
In the coming elections.
THE Yachting World" in an article reviewing
the yachting season. pins It's faith to the likeli-
hood that the latest accident to the Vigants
centreboard was due 20 d defective casting. 1t
says:
English workmen are not accustomed to bronze
centreboards, but at the same time 1t Is not un-
caused by a strain upon some part OF the mechan-
ism which had been overlooked Nevertheless, II
Is remarkable coincidence that In each case the
breakdown occurred in the same locality while
the boat the same crrand Perhaps all
this comes from sailing Sunday. Mr.. Gould Is

does not impress yachtsmen with the advan-
tages OF the contrivance and few owners of yachts
would make such victims as Mr. Could who has
in which he especially desired to compete. II was
q cruel fortune.
THE Yachting World" also notes the fact that
the record CT the little Heireshofr boat Dakotah
shows that out Of :wenty-nine starts she
twenty-sx races.
A. B. Walker. the owner Of the twenty-rater
Thelma has placed order at Fife for the con-
struction Of racing cutter longer than the Bri-
tannia, with a rating Of about 100 tons. Mr..
Walkers brother has ordered forty-rater Of
Watson's design.
The Rev. Price Hughes appeals to the Method
lists Of the United States to interfere to prevent
further lynchings OF negroes. He asks what the
bishops and ministers OF churches North and
South are doing to quicken the public conscience.
The negroes, he contends have immense claims
upon the Church. because q majority Of them are
Methodsts. Mr.. Hughes mites that the facts
