Special Cable Dispatch to Tae EveNtxe Stam Loxpon, Sept, 15.—The difficulties with the Irishmen in the house of commons are develop- ing. They have carried out their threat to keep up the discussion on the estimates if Churchill held to his determination to finish the supply biil before Parnell’s bill was touched. The Times and the tory leaders are enaeavor- Ang to get up a charge of obstruction, but this is not warranted, The Irishmen are supported by one or two old parliamentary hands, who cannot be suspected of obstructive tactics. Two at least of the longer discussions, thaton the Barbaville case and the heated squabble early Tuesday morning,were due partly toCuurehill’s want of temper and partly to what amounts to ‘A BREACH OF FAITH. While Lord Randolph is leader of the house there never will be peace with the Irishmen. ‘They believe him trying to jockey them and get unfair advantage.
