PUBLICATION IN THE LONDON ‘*TIMEs.” (By cable to the Boston Sunday Herald.) The publication of the Parnell letter Monday , morning was well-timed to intluence wavering | members of the house of commons in favor of the Coercion Bill, which came up for a second reading that night. The home rulers natur- ally ascribe the unexpected dimensions of the | majority for the Government to the sensa- tional disclosure. This, however, is denied by the ministerial whips, who claim that every | vote given for the bill was pledged long in| advance of the division. Mr. Balfour, the | chief secretary for Ireland, contrived that Mr. Parnell should not get an opportunity to} —_ until one o'clock, so his cpeech, which osed the debate on the second reading, could only be briefly summarized in the morning, papers. When, at last, the Irish leader had a chance to meet the char ge, there was no equi- vocation or doubt about his utterances. He characterized the letter as a villainous and | barefaced forgery, and in strong ringing sen- authorship upon him. It was only in the closing sentences that he displayed any feeling other than indignation. Bat when he said | that he had suffered more than any other man, and the Irish nation more than any, other nation, his voice faltered, and his*face, which at the beginning of the declaration had turned ashy pale, flushed with suppressed | feeling. His manifest emotion had a marked effect upon the house. The /imes, which undoubtedly believes that it has a good case, has reiterated the charge daily, and its example is followed by the con- servative papers, as well as by many conserv- ative politicians and not a few liberal union- ists, They argue that the burden of disproof | rests on Mr. Parnell. Declining to accept his denials, they say that he — Liter evidence to support them. Whether he will enter a libel suit, as invited by the 7'imes, is doubtful, for his friends clair that in the present excited condition of public opinion he could not look for a verdict on the evidence from a London jury. Tt is also uncertain whether an official inquiry will be made on the authority of the house. Speaker Peel has ruled that, under the circumstances, it is competent for Mr. Sexton to elicit facts bearing upon the origin of a printed letter, and his decision makes it possible to deal w ‘ith the matter as a question of privilege. It is rumored that, if Mr. Parnell takes no steps for an_ investi- gation, the government have to move for a committee of inquiry into the matter. There is, of course, much curiosity to learn whence the Times obtained the letter. Butso far the secret has been well kept. Mr. Labouchere suggests that the document was furnished by some informer to Mr. Forster, after whose death somebody less originally obtained of Richard Pigott,a former nationalist, who has profited by sundry so- called revelations, or that it was bought of some former servant of Mr. Parnell, who pre- tended to have stolen it. But Mr. Pigott eel the allegation squarely, and Henry Campbell, Parnell’s secretary, now a member for Fermanagh, asserts that the servant story is untenable. The London correspondent of the Freeman's Journal, in to-day’s letter,says that the Times’ articles on ‘‘Parnellism and Crime” are the handiwork of J. Wolfe Flanagan. The 7'imes has evidentally spared neither pains nor ex- pense in fortifying its position, for the editor of a London paper discovered on applying to the most authorative experts in handwriting for an opinion on the alleged Parnell signa- ture that the 7'imes had already retained all but one of them, and that this one had been consulted by a news agency on the point. The Times declares positively that it is able to produce undeniable signatures of Mr. Parnell in which every one of the peculiarities of the disputed signatures are found. I hear from a trustworthy source that it has no fewer than twelve other letters, and that these will be published as occasion requires. The unionists claim that these letters affect not only Mr. Parnell, but some of his prominent followers. There is a possibility that the mysterious décuments may be produced in court, in the libel suit brought by St. John Brenon against Messrs. Ridgeway, the publishers of a pamphilet called the Black Book, in which Mr. Brenon is named as an emissary and agent between the Irish Fenians and their confederates on the continent. The case has been hanging in the courts for a year, but it is to come up on Monday, and rumor says that the defendants have sub- penaed Mr. Sexton, and that they propose to call Mr. Parnell as a witness and to introduce the documents held by the Tories. In the meantime the Irish leader has gone to Avon- dale, and it is "understood that the purpose of this journey is to follow upa clew to the authorship of the famous letter. He returns on Tuesday to be present when the House of Commons goes into committee on the crimes bill. He - Oe From Rev. E. S.

TREVELYAN ON THE IRISH QUESTION. It has transpired that Mr. Gladstone in his , Speech at the dinner given by labor members ot Parliament declared his entire disbeliet in the accusations made against the Irish leaders. Mr. Gladstone said that in May, 1882, im mediately after the assassination of Lord Frederick Cavendish and under-Secretary Burke, in Phenix Park, Mr. Parnell wrote him a letter with reference to the crime. The contents of that letter, which had obviously been written under great mental distress, threw considerable light upon the topic of the pres- ent hour, and was strong evidence in favor of the contention that the Times’ letter was a base and malicious forgery. Mr. Parnell, ap- parently forseeing that in the public mind he would be associated with the crime, offered to place himself without reserve in Mr. Glad. stone’s hands. He wrote that he regarded the murders with the utmost abhorrence, and he offered to resign the leadership of the Irish | party and retire altogether from political life if Mr. Gladstone considered such a step ad visable in the interests of Ireland. Mr. Gladstone said he would refain from saying what reply he made, adding that it was only a short time since he obtained Mr. Parnell’s assent to his mentioning the matter. Allud- ing to the advice tendered Mr. Parnell from certain quarties that he bring action against | the Times, Mr. Gladstone said that many years ago when he was commissioner to the \fonian Island, the Times bitterly attacked him, accusing him of treason. On returning to England he consulted a famous lawyer with jthe view of bringing an action, but was ' dissuaded from taking legal steps, the lawyer | ex pressing the conviction that even if Mr. _|Gladstone proved the case, no jury in the ‘then state of public mind would be likely to ‘convict the Jimes. Mr. Gladstone's state- /ment has caused an absorbing sensation in the ‘clubs,but has not yet appeared in the press. The Conservatives talk of challenging the | production ot the letters. Lord Rosebery, in a speech at Glasgow ‘said he had an almost unlimited belief in Mr. | Gladstone. The Government, he said, by |pressing their wanton Coercion bill were | raising au agitation that would certainly lead ‘toa general election. With regard to the ‘ass rtion that if Home Rule were evented to Ireland, that country would fall under the ‘control of the American Irish, he said it was his belief that if Mr. Gladstone’s bill had been | passed the Irish would now resent interference trom New York as much as they had always resented interference from England Sir Geo. O. Trevelyan writes: ‘‘The pas- sage of the crimes bill as it stands would lay Ireland bound hand and foot to the mercy of ‘the party in ascendency in Ireland, which has ,hever governed justly and never will, besides ' postponing quite indefinitely the conciliation and settlement of Ireland. The doctrine that | the bill must besupported in order to keep the present government in power is the most | unsound and dangerous one ever wpenly broached since I have been in public life. } Building in Toronto. | Building in Toronto promises to be on an unusual scale, this year. The Ontario Legis- lature has sanctioned the contract with Lionel York for the *‘walls” of the new pub- lic buildings, at a cost of $752,000. The whole cost cannot be less than a million, and may grow into something more. The new Court House and city Buildings which have been especially authorised by a vote of the rate-payers will cost the bulk of a million. |The bank of Commerce isto put up a new building, and so is the Canada Life Assurance Company. If in addition, the Victoria College buildings be begun, the list of public edifices will be large. Private buildings are required each year to house an addition of several thousand to the population, and of late years house room has always kept well in advance of actual needs. Unless something ‘should oceur to decrease the amount of build ing now contempolated, the total will be un- sually large. — I Apvice To Morners.— Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth.
