This morning the com appolited to wait upon Mre: Gladstone obtained aninterview and found the old man very wary and suspicious. He more than suspected the trap, and had all his guards out. He took preliminary objection to the wording of the resolution carvied by the meeting yesterday, raising a question of con troversy between Parnell's veracity and his own, He said he would not be drawn into such aconflict.

Gladstone Views the Present Aspect of Political Complications, Loxpoy, Dec, 5.—[Special Cablegram Tue Ber]—The Pall Mall Gawtte says: Mr. Gladstone has viewed the late develop- ments inthe political situation with paiu and surprise. The light that Parnell has thrown on his charucter and his resolve to fling pat- riotism to the winds rather than yleld a per- sonal question is only less ustoulshing th the case with which lie forced upon his p sido issues on which patriots now repai him to help them out of a difliculty whi only their own vacillation made possible. ‘The question was originally whether they should or should not on personal _ground: choose another le They, by Famell's upulous adroitness, allo it to be into a question of political eatechism quite irrelevant to the present dificulty.

In re- Sponse, after consultation with bis conferees, O'Brien sent & cablegram saying that all solure_ opinfons here were overwhelmingly with him and his colleage that there was not a single daily throughout the United o8 but that agiead with them that Glad- ¢ good faith is unimpairable; that a disruption of the liberal alliance means de- strnction, and thatif the [rish party comes o a prompt decision the Irish cause will cupy. i Inore improguable position than ever. “UTnless something important occurs, Mr. Dillon, “we may go to New York soon. 1t will be more convenient for us to wait tlere, ns we bave important business to transact in that city.

In conclusion he said that if the Irish party agreed to these sugges- tions he was willing to enter further into the subject, The delegates explained Gladstone’s roposil tothe meeting on their return and an amicable discussion followed, resulting in the rescinding of the Clancy resolution, A resolution was then adopled authorizing Leary, Redmond, Healy and Sexton to re. quest a conference with dstone for the purpose of presenting the views of the Irish party and requesting that an intima given them regarding the intentions of ( stone und his e rues with regard to de tails of theland and police question, in th event of home rule being adopted.

Several weeks ago Mrs, Sophia Bohning, who keeps alittle grocery storeon Broad way, had the misfortune to nave the patient old delivery horse that had been bauling groceries for several years, killedby a motor train. The delivery boy had led the horse out of the barn to water, While drinking, the animal became frightened at something and broke away from the boy and got out on the street. Just an a motor came spinning along the old horse attempted tocross the tracks, but his years aud rhumatism provented him getting out of the way in time. The motor struck him and inflicted injuries caused bis death. Themotor was also s ched and the railing onthe front platform was knocked off. When Mrs,Bohning jpresented her bill for the value of the horse the motor company re- fused to pay, claiming that the sum fixed as the value of the hor: Several 0 Mrs, Bohning begun suit in Justice ¢ of &N, which she swore was the value of the horse toher and her busines. ‘The case was called yester- day, but achange of venue was taken to Justice Barnett, The irial was begun at once, but the attorney for the plantiff de- maunded that a jury ~should pass upon the question of fact and fix the amount of dam- ages Mrs. Bohning had sustained. *A jury was accordingly drawn and a hot legal bat- tle was fought. The motor company admitted the killing ot the hor but denied every other allegation of the plaintiff, and set upa counter claim of #30 fordamages sustained to the motor. In their petition themotor people allege that, Mrs. Bohning ‘“wrongfully permitted and allowed the horse to run at large in violation of the city ordinances,” and that the horse maliciously and feloniously got into the way of the motor and damaged it to the extent of £30, and that the said amoun..s still dueand wholly unpaid. ‘T'hd case was submittea to the jury after a thunderous argument on both sides.
