LONDON , April 23Now [ Vork Hcrnld Cable
Special to the Bni ; . | Thcro can no longer
i bo doubt that Irish politics nro passing into a
i sw phase. The pope's counterblast against
% lho plan of campaign and Lord Randolph
Churchill's emphatic protest against the
policy of all coercion and no concession must
make the past week memorable in contem
porary Irish history. Out of each event im
portant events will flow. Do not suppose
that the manifesto from the Vatican or ono
speech In parliament begins and ends the
talc. You will not have to wait longer than
Monday to witness some now developments
in both directions. Leading nationalists de
clare the pope's action will bo quietly ignored
and the plan will bo pursued with as much
determination and success us over. Into this
part of the controversy I cannot enter.
On the political side of the Irish question
some facts arc known to mo which may beef
of interest to the American public. The cry
here is that Randolph Churchill has broken
ou .lnto revolt on mutiny. Loud and bitter
is the resentment expressed towards him by
the bulk of the tory party. But what has ho
done. Simply affirmed in the house of com
mons the principles and opinions advocated
Just before the election by nine-tenths of the
tory party. Lord Randolph propounds no
new theory. Ho brings forward no favorite
scheme of his own. Ho says the
torles promised a reformed local
government for Irclad. "Yes , " say
Smith and Balfour , "but not
until Ireland is loyal to the crown and con
stitution , was there ever or will thcro over
bonttino when Ireland could pass unchal
lenged through a test of that kind. " There
Is nlwuys disloyalty In Ireland according to
English ideas. Until nil traces uru gone
there shall bo no concessions. Such is the
attitude of the tory party as a whole. Lord
Randolph is not afraid to denounce it us un
just , shortsighted and fraught with
consequences menacing to Ireland and
the union to the future of the
atory praty Itself. But it is said
Churchill has only four or five followers.
True , there may not bo more than that num
ber bold enough to support him openly In the
house of commons. Many moro there are
who are quite ready to Join him when it
ceases to bo dangerous to do so. They believe -
liovo in him , acknowledge ho is right , but are
afraid to face the frowns of a powerful
ministry. Let public opinion shift as it
"
) will , If a policy of vnmitlgatod coercion
in pursued as the ministry now promise to bo
persistent In , and the timid souls will flock to
Churchill's standard. Not coercion alone can
nave Ireland or the union , but concessions
warranted by circumstances and guided by
Justice and wisdom ,
Such is the Churclilllito creed but behold
the most remarkable phenomenon. Wh'.lo a
leader of the tory party proclaims broad and
generous views , Chamberlain who professes
to bo a liberal , makes common cnuso with
the most reactionary section of the torics.
Anything to beat Gladstone is still Chamber-
luln's ono idea. Imagine a professed radical
Joining with the party which practically fixes
the Greek kalends as the period for conccd
Ing decent local government to Ireland. It Is
difficult to sco where ho is steering for , un
less line Goschcn ho thinks high honors in
the tory camp are worth far moro than
Roman fidelity to liberal principles. The
liberal party seems to have made up its mind
to have no moro to do with Chamberlain
lopcntant or otherwise. Of course affairs
cannot remain long in the present state , as
measures nro pending which must inevitably
drive Chamberlain further on the down
grade. A resolution will bo Introduced
affirming the necessity of local reforms In
Ireland. Chamberlain will oppose it.
Orders of the day for Monday , distributee1
to members to-day , place first on the list
King Harmon's salary bill. You know
how this Is detested by the Irish p.xrty and
how very much in thonatuio of a job the
entire transaction Is. I should not bo sur-
pi Ucd to sco Churchill takinj n very uctlvo
part in the discussion of this condemning
item , practically and even voting against it.
Oucu more on Monday wo .may soon tori
( Churchill ) protesting against purbllng
toryism and radical Chamberlain obediently
defending It.
Whether the Gludstonlun liberals wil
make a good light I know not. Ono of their
forcmo.-t men thus explained to mo the other
day the dlftlcultlcs under which they labored.
"Parnoll cannot get his men from Ireland to
try his hardest. Many nro auiull shopkeep
ers or | > oor working men , and they cannot
uiTcrd frequent Journojs to and front Ireland
Homo are paid their expenses ami they are
hero. Others , like Hcaly , must attend to
their professional engagements. For the
English members they are pretty regular In
attendance , but last Tuesday they hud no
Idea Justin MiCarty Intended to cull atten
tion to the new dodge of increasing sentences
on appeal. We wanted to surprise- the torles

of two-substantially n defeat If wo had
> ccn able to vote Tuesday ns wo did Monday ,
rat wo were obliged to keep our intentions
lark , nnd that is why our own men did not
icnr of what was polng on. "
Tills may bo regarded as next to an official
explanation of the breakdown of the Glad-
itonlan forces Tuesday. Clearly , however ,
.ho party whips might very easily have mndo
greater exertions , nnd the old parliamentari
ans were d'oubtlcss hauled over the coals by
the young men for giving another conspicuous
example of their laziness or Incapacity.

LONDON- , April 28. [ New York Herald
Cable Special to the BKE. ] Glllig was in
terviewed to-day and spoke moro freely. Ho
found at No. 8 Adelaide street , the premises
formerly used for storage of the American
exchange baggago. When asked by the
Elcrald correspondent , "how far is the
Paris exchange connected with the others , "
ho replied : "Totally distinct. The London
and Now York shareholders and directors
nro distinct nml separate. I own half the
Paris stock. Paris is solvent and working ,
though strained by the other failures. Hyde
and Nicholas did not resign from the board
six months previous to the suspension. The
truth is , nt the last annual meeting their
names were dropped. They were appointed
on the committee , but had made no report.
The branch they presided over lost
largo sums of money. Nichols certainly
transferred a largo portion of his stock to his
clerk , but is still liable for 2,500 , as also
Hydo. "
Questioned as to what ho really attributed
the failure , Gilllg replied : ' 'The diamond
necklace business. I did not make a penny
on the affair. I gave the diamonds to the
clerk , telling him to arrange for their sale.
I discharged him as a defaulter , and ho went
back on mo and informed. Then the run
came and the depositors kept drawing , and
the two days terrlfilc strain ensued that was
the cuuso.of the failure. "
Questioned as to what are your prospects ,
ho replied : "I think no doubt the exchange
will continue. Wo are meeting bills as fast
us they fall , due , and have made arrange
ments with various banks. When the final
statement comes , It will not reach 500,000.
If I made a mistake it was in trusting to
names such as Lawrence Barrett. They are
good assets , but cannot bo converted into
cash. "
His brother , Chnrles Glllig , keeps nn ex
change on the other side of the Strand. Ho
said to the Herald correspondent that , unless
Henry ccuucd his lying ho would horsewhip
him on the public street. So I said , "we will
go over and sco him. " Wo walked across.
Charles was in but refused to see Henry , nnd
probably the Strand version of Cain nnd
Abel was averted.
Later in the evening Charles said to the
Herald-reporter that if Henry did not keep
his own counsel ho would uvui , ' himself of
the opportunity long desired. Henry was
only lighting the fuse of iv big bomb , and it
will presently cxplodo and ruin him.

Br.itux , April 23. The end of the Avock
sees no unhoped for change in the emperor's
condition and the feeling of relief nnd joy nt
the good news can ho plainly read In the
faces of the daily visitors to the Schloss.
Thcro Is every reason to believe no further
complications will sot in , n't least fer some
weeks , now that the dangers of the crisis are
over. The original disease , however , is In
sidious in progress and the final result is only
postponed.
The North Gorman Gazette , which usually
takes n pessimist view of the emperor's case ,
saj-s : "At any rate the local'dlscaso Is unus
ually slow in progress. Even now ono can
speak neither of a very material extension
of the malady nor of Us so much dreaded
spreading to other and especially to vital or
gans. " This extract rather reflects the rcac
tlon that has taken place in the German
press sinco.tho admitted success of Dr.
Mackenzie's treatment , and the now almost
equally admitted fact that the recent crisis
was mainly duo to Do Bergmann's futile at
tempts to insert the now canula. Dr. Berg-
mann recently said to Dr. Mackenzie : "It
matters llttlo what the feelings of the Ger
man people may bo , but I have
my reputation to preserve , nnd
I will sign nothing that is contrary to the
truth. " The fact that Dr. Bergmann signed
the recent bulletins is therefore of ex
ceptional importance.
One of the physicians attending the em
peror expressed his views as follows : "Con
sidering the gravity of the emperor's malady ,
his condition is as good as could bo
hoped ; but a fresh crisis may
come at any moment. Never
the less apart from accidents , now develop
ments are not expected for a month or six
weeks. The strong constitution of the em
peror may carry him over this , but it is use
less to deceive ourselves nnd hope too much.
The emperor was much encouraged yes
terday by reading a report of the
case of the Hungarian schoolmaster
who submitted to trachcatomy In ISS1 and is
still in fair health. As a further sign that
the present danger is past , M. Hcrbettc ,
French minister , who bus delayed his de
parture a fortnight In consequence of the
crisis , has arranged to return to Paris Tues
day , It is reported also that the grand
duchess of Baden talks of leaving Charlottes
burg.
f
After her drive to Berlin Wednesday
Queen Victoria was so pleased with the
hearty reception accorded to her by the pco-
plo that she immediately telegraphed to
Lord Salisbury a detailed account of the
warm welcome she received. She was all
the moro nlcusod because it had been sug
gested to her not to come td Berlin ,
as it was feared she would bo
coolly received by the people. Nothinp ,
however could induce her to forego her visit
to the emperor's sick bed.
Wednesday's state banquet Is the universal
theme of discussion. Never since the last
century had such splendor been witnessed jn
the Charlottenburg schloss. The queen was
extremely gracious to Prlnco Bismarck.
Official organs have llttlo to' say of
t'io results or the interview beyont
commenting upon the eminent satisfaction
shown by both the queen nnd chancellor.
Other journals make numerous assertions in
regard to the interview , but they are un-
woithy of attention ; us also the report that
the omucror appointed the queen honorary
chief of the Life Guard regiment in memory
of her visit. Ono of the particular "reasons
for holding the review was rather thntftho
queen expressed a dcsiro to sco the regimen' '
in which Prince Henry of Battcnbcrg was
formerly 'a lieutenant. A correspondent of
the Munich Altgcmelno Zcltung says , wltl
rcferonco to the attacks upon the queen am
empress : "Here in Alasco-Lorralno wo cut
almost lay our hands on the mischief this
wild noise has done , and wo therefore rcgari
it with double pain and indignation , "
The council of ministers meets dally
Count Herbert Bismarck assisting In the de
liberations , The recent chancellor crisis
arising from tbo proposed marriage o :
Princess Victoria aifd Prince Alexander of
Battonburg was aggravated by the emperor
insisting that the decisions of the coun
ell , which formerly were eubmlttct
to Emperor William in Bbniarck's
name , should now bo submitted In a manner
showing by what majority , giving the name :
of tbo counsellors nnd how they had been ar
rived at. Prince Bismarck held out fo
solidarity , but eventually he acceded to the
emperor's wish. Another source o :
trouble was the appearance o
a joint memorial by tbo kingdoms of Bavr.ria
Saxony , Wurtcmbcrg and Baden , setting
forth that owing to the delicate state of th
emperor's health and the inexperience of ttio
crown prince , it Is advisable that the supreme
promo power of declaring war. aud conclud
ing peace should bo vested in the relchBtdg
instead of remaining with the emperor. No
cply 04 yet has been sent to this memorial.

pril 28. [ Now York Herald
Cable Special to the Bnn. ] The piercing
blasts from the Pomcrlan marshes compel
Borllncrs to reluctantly don their furs ngaiii ,
but contrary to all expectations this wintry
relapse has n more ir-vlgorntlng effect on the
kaiser. Twice n day little paper bulletins
giving the latest news from the imperial bedside -
side are distributed by hnndfulls In the cafes
nnd beerhouses throughout the city , nnd the
honest delight with which men , women

nCws of Unscr ICnlsor Is a most touching
> ight. The emperor lias now safely passed
the artificially created crisis , nnd-fortho first
time since fifteen days his temperature , this
morning was normal , and did not as hitherto
rise in the evening. Enormous bouquets
sent from all parts of Germany fill his rooms
and testify to his improved condition , for
heretofore a few cut flowers only
were allowed in the room. In consequence
df the kaiser's improved condition , the French
ambassador availed himself of his leave of
absence nnd loft this evening for Paris.
This ray of hope froin the liniscr's bedside
nnd the excellent effect of the queen's visit
have made Berlin quite gay again. Even the
chancellor crisis has not entered the benign
place. The queen , byjhcr tact nnd highly
favorable pcrsonnl impression made

President Carnet prefaced his journey south
by a visit to the big annual show at the
Palais do 1'Industric. Half the pictures
were still unhung , but those ho saw in the

shook oft the irksome control of state poll-

D Momentarily stagnant since his sensational
entry Into the chamber of deputies , Boul-
migcr has been resting on his laurels or
spending his time sending out invitations to
the political love feast which took place last
night at the Cafe Hlche. A few years ago , it
is well remembered , Due. Duumais was over
whelmed with execrations for doing Just
what Boulangcr is noxv doing. Ho" could not
forward any ono a brace of Chantllla
partridges without the whole republican
press accusing him of political corruption.
Boulunger has not escaped severe criticism
cither. All the anti-plebiscalary papers arc
down on him , and to add to his tribulations
half the deputies to whom he has addressed
invitations have refused to compromise
themselves by accepting them. A still
more serious . , blow to Boulongism ,
however , has been the letter of Anatolo dola
Forge , the successor in the scat left vacant
by the little great man in the Ninth nrron-
dlsscmcnt , The generals partisans profess
to have the heart of Paris with them , ana
have repeatedly challenged the republicans
to vacate a scat in the capitol to give their
hero a chance of pitting himself against one
of them. Anatolo do la Forge has now picked
up the plovo and offered to resign and run
the chances of a new election on two condi
tions first , that the general shall face him
at public meetings and explain his political
programme to the electors , and second , that
his own fortunes being slender ho or his
backers shall consent to pay the cost of a
new election. As might be expected the
Boulangists light shy of the proposal , and Lc
Paris was heartily justified in saying last
night that the Boulanglsts are wanning.

An Interesting experiment was made at
Chatclot last night. "Gormanlal" was
played to n house crowded vrlth dead heads.
Zola's way of answering the critics , all of
whomlmvo mercilessly damned the piny.
Like Gladstone , 2ola appealed from the
classes to the masses , predicting that the
people would rovcrso the critics sentence.
Gratitude for the night's amusement
gratis probably had much to do with
the result of his experiment. The ragged
audience which crowded every corner of the
huge house certainly showed plenty of en
thusiasm. Thcychccrcd all the honest work-
ingmnn sentiment of the luckless Million , and
sniveled at the rather artificial scene of little
Abziro's death , but oddly enough , as some
think , they seemed indifferent to the anarch
ist theories put Into the mouth of Souvarlcno.
Altogether , though moro lenient than the
classes , the musses showed considerable
ncuuicn.
A dramatic curiosity has just been pro
duced nt the llttlo Theatre Libre , which
last night was filled with literary and
social celebrates. It was Paul
Areno's adaptation of Aubanel's provincial
drama "Lou Pen ilou Prat , " or as it reads In
the French version , "Lo Pain du Plcho. "
The plot would hardly commend itself to
Anthony Comstock. It is based on an old
provcnclal superstition that tl'O food or
bread made by a faithless wife brings death
to her offspring.Vhcn Mahindrun , the
farmer , discovers his wife has deceived him
ho gathers the food she has prepared for
the family meal and prepares to give it to his
children. In vain the guilty woman bogs
and prays him to spare her offspring. Ho
refuses and in despair Fannctto kills herself.

The Plan of Campaign Decree.
LOJJDOX , April 23. [ New York Herald }
Cable Special to the Bnn. ] The St. James' '
Gazette , referring to the papal decree , snys jj
"After all the rumors of missions and ncgo- ,
tlntions It is surprising that many Irishmen
believe in the existence of n bargain between ) )
England and the Vatican , into which , thew
say , the Vatican was tricked. "Heed should ? i
bo given , " It says , "to the statement that tho. 4
pope backs up Lord Salisbury , rescues Lord ;
Clanricardc , and supports Chief Secretary'
Balfour. Even the conservative dimness of
vision ought to sco that such n posltiorf
could only produce ono effect upod
the Irish. If the pope has'
allowed himself to bo drawn into anything
even faintly resembling such n mlsUiko it
will bo regretted by most Irish Catholics , nuoV V
Lord Salisbury and Balfour will not gala J >
any political advantage by the blunder ; on. \
tlio contray it will add to the intense bitter * > *
ness of Ireland's hatred to the tory govern- ' 3
mcnt. " In conclusion the Gnzctto demands J
that it bo early made known that thcro hnva 3
been no transactions or bargainings between J
the government and the Vatican. 'W
The Glebe says it suits the „ J
purposes of the national ' Icngua , * !
and the Fenian press of' America to curry $
favor with the priests , but if the. . supporter ! 4
of homo rule should attain their object , tha J ;
division of the spoils would cause a conflict jf
between the Parncllito party nnd the van- ' |
tlcan , both of which would desire the ex- VJ
cluslvo right to govern Ireland. The van- 4
tican desires the social and political domN vj
*
nanco of emancipated Irelana , but it does not i4
dcsiro to substitute a republic for a mon- M
arcliy. Experience has shown that whereM
over this has been Uono the papacy has been , ' 3
eclipsed. The conception that the pope ha .
accepted n bribe from Lord Salisbury J J
idiotic , sordid and surprising. .
The London correspondent of a Now York
daily has cabled his paper the following : 4
"The confirmation of the report that 'tlid -1
pope has issued a decree concerning the plan j
of campaign nnd boycotting docs not create *
as much interest among Irish members as ' *
might have been expected. The plan o |
campaign has never been approved by Par- \
neil and has fallen into practical desuetude '
since the passage of the lease holders net of \
the last session. The decree comes too late
to affect it , for its work , such as it was , Ift 'j
done. As for boycotting , it is in opcratioq , J
only in sections where it jumps with local i
desires , and these nro too strong to bo altcre ;
and mollified by n dozen papal bulletins , \
The thing , of course , is felt to bo a jfrcviou
mistake on the part of Uomo , but thcro wHj 1
bo no bad feeling or mutinous talk. " J
ROME , April 28. [ Press. ] It is statedhcra g
that the action of the congregation see rc > ,
garding the plan of campaign In Ireland wa $ J
taken spontaneously nnd without provlou \
suggestion from England. The pope opi i
proved the action , without entering into tha c
pending political questions between Engla
and Ireland.
