The Post says not a single point of the sordid conspiracy has been omitted from the story of the home rule compact for the first time brought to light. The bomb has been exploded in anger and Parnell turns against has fellow conspir- ators to save his own political life.

The Chronicle says: erful blow is the revelation of the abject par- is of the Gladstonian party over the land tion and Morley’s oonfession of their in- 0 assist the sufferers from the plan of campaign. The manifesto clearly shows that Parnell is not a person with whom any stutesman can venture to hold confidential re lations, Irish ingratitude in_ politics is pro- verbial, but never before was it avowed with such cold, caleulating ¢ m. 1 says: The manifesto is he credit of Gladstone Morley as pightforward statesmen, No Enghish politician will ever trust Parnell again, but he has chosen the right line to win back the financial regard of Irishmen. The Times sa The manifesto shivers forever the supposition that Purnell can ever again be treated as a trustworthy friend or honorable foe. It is probably the most shameiess document the Engl has seen since ti vs of The Time: effect its pi of the blow inflicted on Gladstone's imprac- theabls schemes, In e the lrish nationalist members at the meeting on Monday favor Parnell, a movement wiil immediat be started among the liberals to give English reforms prece- dence over home rule, and a meeting to ad- vocate reverting to the programme of 1885 will be summoned.

Bucnanest, Nov, 28.—(Special Cablegram to Tue Ber]- The minister of husbaudry aud the minister of justice have resigued, PARNELL WILL NOT BUDGE. He Insists on Remaining at the Head of the Irish Party, SOME INSIDE HISTORY MADE PUBLIC, The Price Ircland was to Pay for Home Rule—The Great Libral Charged with Secking Revenge, Lospoy, Nov, 28.--Parnell's manifesto to the Irish people, which was issued tonight, is very lengthy. He begins by saying: ““The integrity and independence of a sec- tion of the Irish parliamentary party having been apparently sapped and destroyed by wire pullers of the lib party, it has be- ary for meas tue leader of the o take counsel with you, and 1 you the knowledge which 18 in my possession, ask your judgment upon a matter which now solely devolves upon you to decide, A letter from Gladstone to Mr, Morley, written for the purpose of influenc- ing the decision of the Irish party in their choice of a leader, and claiming for the liber- als and their leaders the right of vote upon the choice is the immediate cause of this address, the purpose of which is to remind you and your liamentary rep- resentatives that Ireland considers the inde- pendence of her party as her only safeguard within the constitution and above and bey ond all other cousiderations whatever, The threat in that letter, repeated so insolently on many platforms and in numerous newspapers, compels me to put before you information which until now nas been solely in my pos- session, and which will enable you to under stand a measure of the loss with which you are threatened unless you consent to throw me to the English wolves now howling for my destruction.” Parnell then tells how at Hawarden last November he received from Gladstone the details of that gentleman’s and his col- leagues’ proposal with regard to home rule in the event of the next general election favoring the liberal party. Upon the sub- ject of the retention of Irish mem- bers in the imperial parliament Glad- stone told him in order to conciliate English public opinion it would be nec to reduce Irish representation from 103 to Upon the settlement of the land question Gladstone intimated that while he would re- new his attempt to settle the matter by im- perial legislation on the lines of the land pur- chase bill of 18% he would not undertake to put any pressure upon his own side. In other ds, that the Irish legislature was not to given the power of solving agrarian difficulties. With regard to the coutrol of the Ivish constabulary it was stated by Glad- stone that in view of the necessity of concili- ating Enghsh public opinion it would be necessary to leave this force tothe appoint- ment of its officers under control of imperial authority for an indefinite period, while funds for its maintainance would be compul- sorily provided out of Irish revenue. A per- 10d of ten or twelve years was suggested as the limitof time during which the appoint- ment of judges and resident magistrates should be retalued in the hands of the imper- ial authorities, Passing to his own expressions on these points which, Parncll says, represent bis views then and now, with regard tothe re- tention of Trish members, he holds that with tho concession of full powers to an Irish leg- islaturo equivalent to those enjoyed by a state of the American union, the number and position of members so retained would be- come a question of imperial concern aud not pressing or immediate importance for the in- terests of [relund: but that with the im- portant and all-cngrossing subjects of agrar- an reform, constabulary control and judici- ary appointments left “cither under imperial control or totally unprovided for, it would be the height of madness for any Irish leader to imitate Grattan's example and consent to dis- band an army which had cleared the way to victory. I further undertook touse every legitimate influence to reconcile Irish public opinion to the gradual coming into force of new privi- leges and the postponements necessary for English opinion with regard to coustabulary control and judicial appointments, but I strongly dissented from the proposed reduc- tion of the number of members during the interval of probation and pointed to the ab- sence of any suitable prospect of land settlo- ment by either parhament as a constitutional and overwhelming drag upon the prospects of permunent peace and prosperity in Ireland,” At the conclusion of the interview, Parn was informed that, pending the general elec- tlon, Gladstone and his colleagues had agreed that silence should be preserved with regard to these points of difference. The absence of any provision for the settiement of the yrarian question; of any policy on the part of the liberal leaders, Parnell says, filled him with concern and apprehension.” On the in- troduction of the land purchase bill by the government at the commencement of last session, Morley conferred with him, and hav- ing regard to the avowed absence of any volicy on the sm'l of the liberals, Parnell strongly advised Morley against any direct challenge of the pl‘lm'lpf’ of state aid in land purchase and that they should divect their efforts on the secoud reading to the assertion of the priuciple of local control. In this Morley agrecd with him, but was at the same time hampered by the extreme section of his party, led by Labouchere, and ina subse- int w impressed upon Parnell the y of meeting the second reading of with a direct negative and asked him to undertake the motion. I agre condition that T was not to at- tack the ple of measure but confine my- self to arcriticism of details. 1 think,’ says Parnell, ‘‘this was false strategy, but_it was strategy adopted out of m-gm-.f to English prejudices and radical peculiarvitics. 1 did the best possible under the circumstynees and several days' debate on the second’ reading contrasts favorably with Labouchere's recent abortive attempt to interpose a direct negative to the first reading of a siniilar bil yesterday.” Just before the commencement of this ses- sion Parnell had another interview with Morley and impressed upon bim the policy of the oblique method of procedure with refer- ence to the land purchase, and the necessity and importance of providing for the question of local control aud limitation in the applica- tion of funds, ' Ho agreed with me,” says Parnell, “and T offered to move on the nirst reading of the bill an amendment in favor of this local con- trol, advising him, if this was rejected, it might be left to the radicals ona second reid- ing to oppose the principle of the meas- ure. I left Morley under the impres- sion that this would fall to my duty, but in addinon he made a remarkuble pro- posal, Leferring to the probable approach- ng victory of the liberals, he suggcsted some cousiderations as to the future of the Irish party and asked me whether [ would be will- ing to assume the office of chief secretary for Irelana, or whether I would' allow another member of my puty to take the position, He also put before me the desirability of flllmf one of the law offices of the crown in Iveland by @& legal member of my party. I wld him, amazed as I was at the proposal, that I could not agree to forfeit it any way the independence of the party or its members; thatthe Irish people had trusted me because they b«-lh‘vm\‘ the declaration which I made at Cork in 1850 represented my conviction and that 1 would on no account depart from it. S consider that Mr. Morley's proposal,” continued Mr. Parnell, “that we should allow ourselves to be absorbed into Eonglish poli- ties, was one based upon an entire miscon- ception of our position, In conclusion Mr, Morl ,-dlm«ml my attention to the plan of the campaign. He said it would be impossible for the liberal party when it attained power to do anything for these evicted tenants by direct action and it would also be 1 impossible for the Irish parliament, under the powers conferred, them, and flinging up gesture of despair he been in Tipperary 1 do pose. $ do anything for his hands with a claimed: ‘Having know what to pro- told hi this question was a himited 3« funds * would be availabls fro America and elsewhere for the suppord of those tenants as long as necessary and this dificuity should not be aliowed to interfefo with the general interests of the countey.” Parnell says he alludes to this matter only because within the last few days strong ar- guments for s expulsibn have been made that unless the liberals come into power .next olectdon the plan of campaign tenatlts will suffter, He has shown that tho ilberals proposed to do nothing for them by direct action and is entitled to ask that thes® tenants, whom no has supported in everyway in the past and will continue to support, shall not constitute a reason for his expulsion from [rish politics. Parnell says that during ten years of inde- dence ‘the Trish patliamentary party, it scause of its indepgndence, forced upon t glish people the néeessity of granting home rule to Ireland. HP believes the party will obtain home rale prdvided it remains in- dependent of any B party, In conclusion, ne says & “1 do not believe any action of the Irish people in support- ing me will eadangbr the home ru se or postpone the establishment of the Irish parliament. But even if the danger were to be realized, 1 believe the Irish people throughout the world would agree with me that postponement would be preferable to a compromise of our national rights by the ac- ceptance of measures which would not real- ize the aspirations of our race." PARNELL'S PGSITION, The Freeman's Journal is Strongly Opposed to Hasty ion, No -|Special Cablegram to The Fre¢man's Journal today advocates that the nationalists should takeno eps at Monday's meeting but should again postpome their decision in re- gard to the retention of Parnell at the head of the party, in ordet to allow matters t develop -and to give time enough to enable the opiuion of Messrs, Dillon, O'Brien, O’Connorand other national dele- gates, who are now in America, to be con- veyed to the mecting by one of themselv and there delivered viva voce. The main voint, the Journal contefds, is that Ireland should preserve the effo of her own party. The English rddicals, it says, must take care of themselves and Ire must mind her own business. It beseeches Glad- stone to ignore the ravings of canters and the hypoerisy of recalcitrants who are nothing without him ~ When he wins, it says, they will again crawl to his footstool. Continuing, the Journal says: “Davitt should remember that when parliament howled for his punish- ment Parnell stood up ~for him and faced the storm.

In conclusion, the' archbishop says he does not feel convinced e are yet in a posi- tion to form final judgment on the case out of which the present unhappy crisis has arisen, At all events it is a matter that must be decided one way or the other before many days, — An Alleged Intrigue, Loxnon, Nov, 23. ial Cablegram to Tue Bee.]—Parnell’s dupporters complain that after the nationalist/meeting on Wednes- day cable dispatches @ving a misleading summary of the procce@iings were sent pri- vately to the Irish dolegates in America. They assert that intrigues are on foot in the lobby of the house of commons to draw away Messrs, Dillon and O'Brien and other dele- gates from the support of Parnell. Anti- Pacnell members of the nationalist party are more hopeful and assert that private tele- grams from Iveland show that the priests and the mass of the people support them, They claim that if Messrs.
