The agitation known as the Parnell or
parliamentary movement, as far as Irish
nationality is concerned. it is claimed. is

the British people. The new movement

1t will devote itself to forcing the Irish
question upon the attention of the world
'fn such a manner as will inevitably
compel a settlement more satisfactory to
Ireland than any heretofore offered by
any British party" Gladstone said in
moving his home rule bill: If, there
fore, the resistance to this measure were
to be bitter, obstinate and prolonged, the
question of repeal might finally become
an international one" The promoters of
the new movement claim to have been
driven to adopt the alternative suggested
by Gladstone and will try to make the
demands Of Ireland q subject for interna-

Colonel Rend telegraphed the same opin-
ion to the Ohio coal operators at
Columbus. He said: "a thorough
investigation of the mining situation in

knowledge Of the plans and purposes of

vince me that the miners will surely be

the present movement to reduce wages in
the Pittsburg district below the 10 cent
rate. Today over 1U0 outside men were
put to work by Mr.. Robbins at his Jumbo
mine. Several other operators are arrang-
ing to fill their mines with men in case of
prolongation Of the strike.
Miners Omcials Are Confident.
On the other hand the miners officials
are more confident Of success than ever,
and say that there are fewer men at work
at the 60-cent rate now than at any other
time, and that in a short time they will
have the Pittsburg and Chicago COM
pany's men all out. At this mine the
men have just renewed their contract
with the company to work eight months

be paid them at the expiration of the con-
