Possible Outcome of the New Stu

London, Dec 1-Justin Mccarthy the
leader of the anti-Parnellite section of he
Irish parliamentary party, delivered a
speech at Walworth last Tuesday in
which he definitely committed that party

education. Since then the disposition Of
the liberals to throw home rule for Ire
land overheard has become more decided.
Mr. Mccarthy obviously expects to obtain
IL compact with the government under
which a Roman Catholic University will
be established in Ireland besides satisfy
ing the Catholic cricals in England by
assisting to pass measure that they have
long desired. No policy could more abso-
lutely ALLEVIATE the sympathies of the lib
erals.
The Speaker asks if the Irish realize the
fact that by thus attacking their English
allies on purely English question they

zeal member of the late parliament who
was most pronounced and ardent home
ruler, has retired from an important hon

with the Irish members for going over
bodily to the enemy not on an Irish but
on an English question.

that if the Irish members of the House
of Commons swell the majority following
the Archbishop of Canterbury, home rule
will pass out of the range Of practical pol
These warnings however true they may
be- will not deter the Irish from obeying
the orders of their clerical advisers and
all will move entirely in consonance with
the general Catholic sentiment. Many
liberals win now get quit of home rule,
with a general feeling OF relief, and will
aspire to consolidate the party on the
old lines that will be acceptable to the
Duke Of Devonshre, president OF the
council; the Right Honorable Joseph
Chamberlain, colonial secretary; Lord
James, chancellor OF the Duchy of Lam
caster and other unionists, who are GER
tain to refuse to follow LORD Salisbury
if he attempts TO crafty the Anglican
clericals by an extension Of the state
grants to sectarian schools.
Sir. 7. W. Reed, editor of the Speaker,
who has recently had interviews with
leading italian statesmen, gives semi-of-
fetal Importance to startling declaration
in the issue of that paper to-day regarding
the intention of the Italian ministerial
lists in the event of the pope's death. The
sum of his long argument, which, it is
stated, represents the views of the italian
government, Is that the conclave which

The Right Honorable Akers- Douglas,
first commissioner of works, who repre-
sents the east division of Kent in the
House of Commons, has assured his con-
stituents that the government will intro

and that these measures will be made

relief measures will take, Mr.. Akers-
Douglas was unable to give any definite
information concerning them. A fore
cast of the governments proposals based
on various utterances, includes, besides

Sallsburys declaration against pro-
