LONDON , Juno 15. fNow York Herald Cnblo Special to TUB Bnc.l Scarcely any event , present or to come , not oven the gath ering of war clouds In Europe , attract tbo Bcrlous attention of tbo observant portion of the public BO much as the pronouncement of the coroner's Jury In Chicago with regard to the Clan-na-nnol , and the arrest of Alexan der Sullivan. There are some occurrences which talca every body by surprise , and these stand foremost amongst them. Something is always happening to cause perturbation in the Irish party. It Is a largo party , with ramifications extending to various parts of the world , and who can say , nt any moment , what will coma to light or what will happen next ) A Is nn honorable man , b'jt with him are associated B and O , and so on down to Y. "Who knows what the tall party "Y , " is do ing , or may liavo done at soaio time or other. A is all right , but ho may huvo very serious doubts in his heart about Y , and yet nil may bo compro mised in the eyes of the public by the rash or lawless acts of any prominent member of the organization. That Is Just how the matter stands with tbo nationalists to-day , It being alleged tbat their association ? Is being stained by crime , or "dogged by crime , " as Gladstone once put It. No doubt it is that accusation , or suspicion , which caused the league to bo regarded askauco by many who long to rejoin Gladstone and the regular branch of the liberal party. "It would bo absurd , " remarked the Pull Mall Gazette , the other nlirht , "to connect a private von- dctta or Dr. Cronin's enemies with the wider Issues of the Irish politics. " Nobody has done so , In public , but the very eagerness with which the Pall Mall Ga/ctto comes out with Its protest shows that it guesses what is going on in the pee ple's minds. When they boar of these doings of the Clan-na-Gncl and tbo flndmg of the Chicago Jury and Sultlvr.n's Incident , they can not help connecting them with Irish politics , generally. Call It absurd , or unjust , or what you please , but that will not alter the direction in which the current ot thought and opinion is running. Q The Irish pnity is certainly unlucky. What is very needful for it is to have Uio past bur ied and to llvo In quasi retirement until Gladstone has had another chance of seeing what he could do for it , but the past will not keep burled. Every now ana tbou It pokes Its claws through the thin soil , and draijs down somebody or other with it. As far as Alexander Sullivan Is concerned there certainly will bo every disposition , here , not to prejudice his case , and oven to hope that ho will bo able to clear himself. Mrs. Sullivan's letter to the Herald has been read with respect , and her impassioned defense - fonso of her husband must tend to produce a certain doijrco of feeling In his favor. After all , however , the Judgment of friends and re lations can not decldo tbo .terrible question , which is now awaiting a solution in Chicago. Tbo attention of the world has been drawn to the remarkable chain of events which cul minated In the murder of Dr. Cronln , and It can not bo diverted from them. All subse quent stages of the proceedings will bo watched with the deepest interest , and in eplte ot certain incoherent remarks about tbo Irish vote , which have appeared In some of our papers hero , confluence Is generally felt that Justice will bo dono. If all tbo guilty persons are not discovered , that ouijht not to oxdto any surprise m London , where every few weeks a woman is cut up and scattered about the streets without u trace being found of tbo assassin. It would bo strange if the Irish loaders hero did not fuel a profound concern about the Cronln casa and tbo measures taken ngalnst Alexander Sullivan. If It bo true that Cronln discovered a great malversation In the administration of the funds of the National league , and that for this ho was UoonioU to death , they cannot fall to have serious misgivings as to their organization in the United States. No control can bo exercised over It , at this distance , and yet to some ex tent the Irish leaders hero are hold responsi ble for it. The leaders on both sides of the Atlantic hnvo often been In the most confi dential alliance. Alexander Sullivan , him- elf , was president of the American branch of the Land league In 1883. Your own col umns Imvo made known to us that ho was once within uu nco of being offered the nomi nation for the vlco presidency. Ho was an Important man , ono who must have had very close relations with the beads of his party in Ireland , but it does not follow that the latter know anything whatever about his method of carry Ing on his organization. Still it is unfortunate that this dreadful scandal should huvo occurred In any section of the Irish ranks. Things do not appear to bo going particu larly smooth with the party. Dillon is evidently making rather poor progress in Australia , almost as poor as Wil liam O'Brien made in Canada , except that DUlon Is prudent , and docs not seek to m- llumo the popular passion * . It doss not , liowovor , look as if money were rolling lu very fast. Funds at headquarters must bo gottiiii ; very low , for the plan of campaign is very expensive , and so is tUo commission , - - wtiicb is now certain to draw Ita slow length along until autumn. Meanwhile tbo party is silent and inactive , and is doing abso- Jutoly nothing In parliament or out of it. Inaction always looks to the common nye HUe weakness. Sometimes it really is so. What Is being said now , in almost all direc tions , some U30i > lo may llko anil seine may not ; but , undoubtedly tbo talk runs llko this : "Tho Parnolliles are sinking fust. Bui- four U winning all alona the lino. In another yuar you will not bo nblo to llnd the Irish party wltU a telescope. Firaiuots has done what wo always said it would. Nobody thought there was much In Ualfour , but you sea ho has been too many for the plan of campaign and nil the rest of It. Ho had his chance and ho made the most of IU Exit Parnoll & Co. " Not alittto premature , In ray humble opin ion , is such boasting as this , but still it goes on every whoro. An any well-informed man would bo compelled to admit the public soon take up an Idea which is dinned persistently Into them , and It they era told a thing often enough they believe It , ThCy hear now , on nil sides , that Parnelllsm Is played out , that the game is p , tbat the party has jjono to pieces In Eng- and , and holds together with dlfllculty in roland ; that for the moment It is under a aw and heavy cloud hi America , and stands t a discount In Australia. They may bo all vrong , but those are the Impressions which ivcnts are making upon the ponoral multl- uile. I describe them to you because they ra facts , and very important facts , but it is loyonrt my province to draw any conclusions rom them. A MCMIICU OP PAnLUMnNT.

To-day the Judge ivns to render a decision , but Mrs. White ap peared In court without the child. When asucd by the court where It was , Mis.

" This reply of COUMO made a sensation. Her .Homey promptly disclaimed having advised .his course of action , and asked that his cli ent have tlmo to rcllcct. The court said tbat f Mrs. White did not proJuco the child she nust suffer tbo consequences of contempt of court , and ho allowed her till noou to con sider.

[ Spe cial Telegram to TUB Bun.l Three councils were held In the camps , to-day , at which Governor Foster put In an appearance and gave the Indiana a little informal talk , set ting forth the purposes for which the com mission had come amen ? them , alluding in cidentally to tha success of the negotiations at the Kosobud agency. Speeches were made by sovornl of the prominent older Indians , which discovered a itrong spirit of opposition to the treaty. Among others may bo mentioned , Hod Cloud , Biff Road , and White Antelope , as the most earnest In their opposition to the treaty. Red Cloud has at last openly declared hitn- ; nlf as against any sale of land , expressing himself to the effect that his people needed all the and which they now possess , and thnt to properly Induct them Into the mysteries of the whlto man's civilization all this land ivouUl bo required without the relinquish- men t of an acre. Taken as .t whole the situation hero seems similar to that nt Rosebud when the commis sion came thoro. The mixed bloods and whlto men intermarried into the trlbo are in 'avor of the bill , knowing this to bo tbo .most advantageous offer over made or over Ikoly to bo mado. The acknowledged loader of the younger and moro progressive Indians here Is and Young-Mnn-Afrnld-of-Hls-Horso , ho leads the advocates of the treaty. Ho is credited with the expression "When my riond , General Crooks , comes and tolls mo what to do , I shall do it , for I know ho has a good heart towards the Indians.

These ocoplo are arrayed for or against the bill , with a largo number on the fence , ready to climb down on the side where there Is the most numerous crowd or tbo Juciest beef steak. Tlio Indian Defense association , through , ts secretary and paper , the Council Fire , has been opposing the present treaty , and to this may bo attributed the strong opposition of Red Cloud and his followers , as Dr. Bland has a powerful influence over this chief. When Red Cloud returned from Washing ton , recently , a change had como over the spirit of his dreams , and ho came out openly n his advice to his band to oppose tbo bill. Coming shortly after the snub to the Indian Defense association committee , this may bean an effect of that cut from Secretary Noble. SPUnGEON IN CHICAGO.

In conversation with a reporter he said his only business In this country was that of resting and regaining his health. With ref erence to Christian work In this country com pared with that in England , Mr. Spurgcon said : "I can hardly glvo you nn opinion on that point , for I have scon so little of it , having attended only ono church slnco I landed. But I must say that I was not very favorably impressed with that. It was a Methodist church in San Francisco , and the minister talked during the whole evening on the labor question. Still , it is not fair to Judge the whole country by one church. There is one thing I do notice , and which I find much superior to anything llko it In England , and that is the work among the young men. The Y. M. C. A. Is a wonderful organization , and I am convinced that it Is doing a wonderful work among the youihs of the country. " To the question as to how Chicago com pared with London from , a religious stand point , Mr. Spurgeon said ho thought this city could out-do London in that matter , es pecially In regard to Sunday observance.

Until two weeks ago und slnco last January , Mr. Williams had been managing editor of the Herald of this city , and a newspaper fight between him and C. F.

Gladstone's IMoii far Ireland. LONDON , Juno 15. [ Special Cablegram to TJIU DUE. ] Gladstone addressed an onthu siastlo mass meeting in drill hall at Plymouth last evening , dealing at length with the Irish question. Ha maintained , first , that the sou aratioa of a dependency had never been caused by the grantlngof autonomy ; second , that separation bad In numerous cases been caused by u refusal of autonomy , and , third , that thcie wcro abundant cases in which separation can bo prevented by granting au tonomy. Gladstone supported these pror/osl- tlons by reference to colonial -history. At the beginning of his public career , ho said , there was not a colony that was not held by precarious tenure ; but since being granted the fullest liberty In the management of tbulr own affairs , all had been bound strongly ta the empire. Ho appealed to the nation to give tbo satuo liberty to Ireland. i The Arthur Memorial Unveiled. ALIUNV , Juno 15.

[ Now York Herald Cable Special to Tun Bci : . ] The Prlnco of Wales has often been out ta thn meets of the two English driving clubs ; sometimes at those of the four-tn-hand clubs , on the drags of the Duke of Beaufort or Lord Willoughby Dorslcy ; sometimes at those of the couching clubs upon the drags of.Lord Currlnglon or Lord Charles Bcrcsford , but never until yesterday had bo been In Paris when the French Socloto des Gmdcs , as it is ofilclally called , wcro holding ono of thclr'tncots. So that when It was known that Ins royal high ness and son had accepted the proposal of M. Leon Lambert to lot him drive them out tolAuteml , the other members of the club who have loams in Paris made a point of bringing them out , the result being thnt there was such a moot as had never before been wit nessed. The trysting place was ns usual , the Place do la Concorde , and though only eighteen coaches assembled , there wcro several oth ers who cut in on the way to Autouil , and when they all drew up In line opposite the stand the total reached twenty-five , this bo- inc ; nearly as many as were at the coaching club meet in Hyde Park a fortnight ago. In former years the coaches hnvo not met unti 1 2 o'clock , but as the Prlnco do Sagan wa a anxious to have them there before tbo racin began the hour was change * ! to 1 , and coach ing men being nothing If hot punctual , the midday meal was hurried through and by tbo tlmo fixed for tbo meet five or six coaches drawn up in the Circle do la Royalc. For th6 next'ton or fifteen min utes coaches continued to * arrive , and shortly before the half hour Mr. tambert , who was driving his own horse/In Karen do Roths child's coach , showed tfr&w'ay to his club members. He hada ra'tt&r-rcsoonsiblo task considering that the : heir to the throne of England and the tatter's oldest son wcro among hia passengers. ' The prince , who was wearing a light sum mer suit and white hat , had declined a box 'BQat , which was lilled by Prince Albert Victor , and was sitting immediately , behind the driver with the Duchess Do Moray , and beside him M. Lambert , who was driv ing four handsome bays , which were moro llko coach horses than most of those one sees at the present day. Ho had several other passengers , including Mr. Reuben Sassoon and Mr. Willoughby , and ho kept his horses going at regular gallop past the Champs Elysees and through the Avenue Dubols to Auteuil , so that there was no excuse it the others did not keep their dis tance. The parade was a very pretty ono oven if the sun was not shining so brightly as ono would have wished. Still , with the recollections cf the many wet Fridays , when this avenue meet has beeu spoilt by rain , ono could not bo otherwise than thankful for the fine day. The scene at Auteuil , too , was as pic turesque as It well could bo , for the Prlnco do Sagan and his colleagues wcro waiting to receive the coaches as , with three out-riders in scarlet , they drove on to the park. M. Lambert , driving his team with much care , brought his coach upon the extreme end of our line to the left. The order in which the teams came was : General Count Do Frlant , bay wheelers , chestnut black leaders ; M. Ferdinand Bis- choffshcim , bays and browns ; M. Henri Rldgoway , boy wheelers , brown leaders ; Priuco Troubetsky , browns ; Count Po- tocki , brown wheelers , bay chestnut loaders ; Mr. Robert Wlnthrop , three bay and a brown ; M.

Pignatcl , chestnut brown wheelers , brown leaders ; Earl of Shrewsbury , Tulbot bays ; Comto do Gratumont D'Asto , three bays and chestnut ; Comto D'Amllly , throe chestnuts and grey : M. Henri Schneider , three bays and brown ; jM. Calico , brown grey wheelers , brown chestnut leaders ; M. Do Mauldo , three bays and grey ; M. D'Eha ' , ays ; M. Duissant D'Agmgnt , thrco greys and bay ; Marquis do Guilhlnauson , bays und browns , crossed , M. Orsettl , bay wheelers , clabstnut leaders , and M. Chary , grey bay wheelers , groy chestnut leaders. I f Several ot those tcamaiwcro not only ex cellent as regards tbo quality of the horses , ' but were well put 'together and well turned out , notably ' that of Mr. Wlnthrop , who had th'op'ieasuro of showing Autoull under the bos ( inispiccs to Wbltolaw Reid , the now minister , and his wife in a dress of French grey. ' M. Henri RldgQway's' ddin was also a very smart ono , and among the many passengers carried by him were the Duo do Grammont , Comto and Cotntesso Ul Brlgoli and M. do Coutant Blron , But it would carry mo too far wcro J. to at tempt anything like a > list of the notable people out , though I must not forget to men tion Lord Shrewsbury's coach , for not only had ho four very smart horaes , but ho was accompanied by his sister , Lady Hemeloy , by Couutess M. Groy and Madame do Pour- talcs la a straw colored foulard , who occu pied the box seat. On Prlnco Murat'a coach M , Plgnatol had the pleasure of drjvlng Mra. Henry Oppen- helm , who wore a black luco costume which wa * ono of tha inost handsome seen in Auteuil , < v The occupants of the coacheg did uot.with a few exceptions , rcmaliion them while the racing was on , but wcut ucross to the stand , where everything was douo to make them feel ot homo. There was not any great crowd on the lawn , but the cream of Paris had assembled there , and among them were the Princess do Wlttornleh , in a very stylish dress of mauve satin , with with tabller cream-colored lace ; the Duuhcss d'Carcs , in the Comtcsso do "Pourtalcs and her daughters , In whlto ; the Comtcsso Qroyffulbo , who had a first empire dress ot mauve , with long ccharpo of the same tint , and the duchess of Manchester , with M'dllo Yznaga.

JOHN H-ITZGBitAIiD'S VIKWS. W lint Ho Thinks of the Dr. Cronln Af fair. LINCOLN , Neb. , Juno 15. [ Special Telegram - gram to TUB Bun. ] In nn Interview with President Fitzgerald , of the Irish National league of America , this evening , ho ex pressed himself at some length on the mys terious murder or disappearance of Dr. Cronin. Ho doubted some that the body found was that of Dr. Cronin. Many persons of close observation agreed with him that the identifications at the inquest were not absolutely conclusive , and that they were promoted moro b'y the excitement over hla disappearance and the finding of a body than by any real resemblance. Ho took some stock lu'tho statement made by the Toconto rcpoiter , who said that ho Raw Cronin some days after Ins disappearance , and the fact that the corpse found Had a goatee , while the doctor were none , would suein to cast doubt over the Identifications. It might be that the dee tor was dead , nnd it mlcjlit bo that ho was In hiding to create n sensation , or that ho had been made a prisoner by the secret enemies of thn Britlsii government. In either event , the evidence pointed moro directly to the EnglMk sccrot agents than to anyone olso. They would have a motive. Dr. Cronin was a member of a faction of a physical force society , and , us a bitter fighter , hud made many enemies among the Irish loaders. His murder or disappearance would tend to bring discredit on the Irish cause * everywhere nnd disgrace to the leaders. This had been the result , so far , in a meas ure , but tlmo would right all these things , whether Dr. Cronln was dead or alive. Ho was confident In the belief in Alexander Sul livan's cntlra innocence , and declared most emphatically that the Cronln excitement had nothing to do with tlio postponement of the meeting of the National league , President Fitziforald'a Loiter.

Ho expresses dissatisfaction with iho tone ot the letter fiom President Fitzgerald , Intimating it was not as radio il as was do- sired.

The North German Gazette pointedly referred to the proposed operation as illegal , and oven the liberal Vbssiseho Zeltung- warned the Gerinin invoHors to unload Rus sian stock as speedily as possible , in readi ness for the inevitable life und death atrugglo between Russia and Germany. A commutes of the bourse is expected to deliver an opin ion Monday on the legality of the proposed conversion , but if is felt that the government would not have exposed Gorman capital to heavy losses except to avert still greater dangers , nnd thnt had Balkan affairs been peaceful nothing would have been heard of the illegality of the conversion scheme. The Servian government has refused to renew Its commercial treaty with Austria- Hungary , which expires in 1890.
