Sonmiticiiiiil KurnorK Regarding: tho Irish Recently Slurrled In Secret The Bride Suicl to He the Uiinghtor ol Mrs.

of Divorce Case Notoriety. LONDON, April relations of Mr. Parnell to Mrs. O'Shea have been rendered more mysterious than ever by recent reports. No declaration has yet been made by Mr.

J-'urnell himself or by any person authorized to speak for either of the persons concerned that they are to be married when the divorce is made absolute. That period is now near at hand and the friends of are anxious that the ambiguous situation should be cleared up. The state of affairs has led to the bringing up of a crop of rumors damaging to the repuiation of the gentleman and lady, already so much compromised. These various stories, with more or less in the-report Monday tlW the marriage with Mrs. O'Shea would not take place, as Mr.

Parnell had already been secretly married to another lady. Astonishment was increased by the rumor that the lady in question is a daughter of Mrs. and that the marriage took place in secret because, among other reasons, the young lady was a ward in chancery. The latter story rapidly spread in the lobbies of the house of commons and is eagerly and variously discussed, but it finds few believers.

The however, shortly comes again before the courts when the evidence to be adduced will probably settle it and the Parnell-O'Shea mystery as we! Umtil that event prudent people rese'rv their opinion.
