OCTOBER 19. 18SL PRICE FIVE (jENTS. PARNELL. iUow the Persistent Leader's Arrest Effected. Resistance to Taxation Advised.

The Excitoniont in Ireland at Fever Heat. The Police on the People at Limerick. Xntenee Feellnsr over John Rearreet at DfBLiN, October the Irish agitator, was arrested this mortiins by order of tho poremnient, under the coercion act. The news of his arrest has almost stirred up a revolution In Ireland. His arrest was accoroplished by tho government officers at Morrison's Hotel, Bridge station.

The agitator was lying down, trying to get some sleep before going to attend the county Kildare convention, where he had been advertised to deliver an address ou the land act, and where an immense 4 of tho Irish people was to be assembled to receive him. It was well known that the character of the speech to bo delivered by Mr. Parnell would be vhdent in the highest degree, and his partv managers had made every effort to have assembled at the convention an audience that would be in perfect sympathy with his utterances. It was because of the fear of the results that the government was appealed to by the loyalists to apply the coercion act to Parnell, and that the government consented to the application, It was intended to have the arrest made quietly, but the news of advent to Kildare had been so ell advertised by tbe Land that crowoa of syinpathizers were posted the entire route, and at railway stations rtvere assembled great throngs. The warrants tor arrest, two in number, were signed by Mr.

chief secretary tor Ireland, charging him inciting people to Intimidate others Trom paying their just rent, and with intimidating tenants from taking the benefit the land act. Mr. Parnell was taken tto Kilmalnham jail, the prisou which was pre- Hiarcd especially for the prisoners arrested und er coercion and tn which both Air. Dillon and Father SUeeby languished. He oiTored no resistance.

He was so taken with surprise when the officers presented the warrant to him as to be for a moment speechless and powerless. Tbe people at Bridge station, when they saw the Irish leader a prisoner in tbe hands of the soldiery, were lnd.lgnant, and disposed to at once crush the oflicers to death, but the power of the government appeared 80 instantaneously In the presence on the ground ot a large armed soldiery wiio Iiad escaped notice before that a sort of sudden terror seemed to come over the peojde. They fell back for the moment and Parnell was removed trouble. The news of the arrest spread all over Ireland with me rapidity of lightning, and cverv'whero that It went the people turned only to tlhd the hated British soldiery armed and duty ahead of them. Ths power for the moment of the F.nglish brute force and the uitorly helpless condition of the Irish people in any scheme oi common resistance were never more terribly contrasted than in the secrtsy, tlie suddenness and the complete of this arrest and the dazed helplessness with which the Irish ueople were conn eBed to learn of it in the presence of an armed force that aeemed In a moment to have swarmed all over the country and taken complete possession of it.

TMJE SECKKT PLOT 3Br whieh the Arrest of Irelaod's Patriot Leader Planned. okpon October determination to order tbe arrest of Parnell was arrived at during the secret and prolonged session of the cabinet held yesterday. No indication of any kind was given that such a step bad been decided on after the session ended. Tbe public was given to under- itand that, while the ministers of course bad given some attention to the condition of affairs in Ireland, yet there had been a division on tbe question as to the best course to pursue, and that most of tbe time not consumed In the consideration of the Irish question had been used arranging a liiial policy toward the Trana- ivaal. The rosoiutioqto arrest I'arneil was in this kept entirely a secret from the English and Irish people.

So profound a secret did it remain (hat nothing was known of it beyond the cabinet, tintil Secretary Forster, who secretly left London ammeaiately after the cabinet adjourned, reached Lublin at a very early hour this morning. This ffie did by special means of travel. He at once summoned tho best government avnilahlo, placed the warrant for tbe arrest iu tbeir haiuis, and giving them the fullest ussurauees of military support and the amplest powers advisable, ordered them to per- iiorni the duty assigned as speedily and secretly as jpoHsible. Secretary Forster thereupon placed him- at once In the closest coniiuunicatlon with the Kuilitarv all over Ireland, aiui it was nothing after the detectives left the before he had every member of the British force in the island under the most absolute orders. 'The cabinet today do not hesitate to say that (he energetic measure will have the effect of Im- iroving the political condition of affairs in reland, but many who have paicl much attention to those affairs shake their heads and say Its evil results cannot now be predicted.

It is signittoant that the Times said yesterday Sn regard to the course to be pursued iu Ireland, "There are, no donut, two parties in the cabinet, us there were a year ago, bnt the ministers who gtUl hesitate to take a decided course may be Invited to seriousl.v reflect tluat the impatience of (he countrv grows daily at the continued spectacle of authority in Ireland flouted and law JOHN KEAKHEST. Feeling Over the ArbUrary Act ot Tyranny. DtTBLiN, October excitement over the frearrest of John Dillon has been very great, and ishows no sign of diminution. At the it was made at the house in this city, everything was quiet, and nobody suspected what been done outside his household and the inner circle of the Land League, until the evening extras apprised the people of the outrage. Au immense crowd waited in front of the Land League quarters, in expectation of addresses, until dispersed by tbe police.

The feeling is more bitter than ever against tbe British government, and the league be sustained to the last. EXCITEMENT IN IKELANH.

LiMEliiCK, October proclamations forbidding the meeting yesterday were torn down before daybreak. Colonel Knox ot the Scots Grays told tbe mayor that any assemblage would be forcibly suppressed.

Crowds, nevertheless, assembled in Bank place, outside the town, where the military and police had fote- etalled them. The attempt to meet was a fiasco, but Individuals In the crowd jeeringly shouted at the military commands as the troops were moving away. Stones were then thrown and the troops ctiarged the mob. Tne latter closed with the troops, who were ordered to load. The soldiers charged several times, bnt subsiquentiy entered their barracks.

The Scots Greys and the police afterwards charged the mob down George street, causing it to flee in all directions. The police jn Denmark street fired upon tne mob. Several persons were wouuded and twenty arrests were made. Numerous houses were wrecked. After the riot the club-house was attacked.

IN ENGLAND. Geaeral Dl.sutl.faytl«m With the Re.nII of Courne. ew our October it r. Louis J. Jennings telegr.iphs as follows to the MoiTU: there no great sympathy for Parnell except among the most e.xtreme Badicals, tho feeling against the ministiy is mutonbtedly inten-e.

No English minister was ever gr.antod more license than Mr. (iladsione. When he asked for oouc.ecsions, they were freely granted. The liouso supported him in despoiling the landlords and establishing a irecedcnt which, when applied to ilie rdiglish and laws, will almost revolutionize the reiatlons between landlord tenant. When he demanded exiraordinarv involving tiie suspension of the habeas corpus act, be got them, and wTien he delayed pressing Kngiish ana Seotcii reforms, on the ground that it w.is nocess.arv to devote his whole attention to Ireland, the people suhmiited almost without a murmur.

But now, after ail this, it is seen that the premier is wholly unable to restore order in Irehind or move'the country from within measurable distance of civil The people last losing patience with him, and unle-s matters mend r.ip- he will have to face au angry and sullen house next Mr. Jennings also says! "My ot the situation, from all the information 1 can gather, ih.at Ireland will be neirlier cajoled nor coerced into submission; that ilie demand for the repeal of the union will tic supported an incrtoising number of Rnglisii Radicals, and tliat the lawlessness in Ireland, coinnlned with tlie now weak, now despotic attitude of the government. will eventually result in tlie disgrace and overthrow of tlie Gladstone ad- miuiatratiou. Tlie stamping-out process I ias never worked satlsractorily in Ireland, and the best informed that tbe coining winter will be marked by an nnparailelcd amount of agrarian crime. The constabulary is quits unable to deal with tlie league, every member of wiiich himself to t.ai- fling police investigation.

The enormous force of military now in the country will, of course, render a general rising impossllde were sucli a thing contemplated, but no army can prevent murder and incendiarism. The number of outrages has increased enormously within tne lust tow days, and in the dark winter nights we may look for bad work. Landlords are leaving the country in numbers, and agents everywhere, even upon known as are asking for police protection. The ontv hope of the government, and It is a slender one, Is that the working or the land act may wean the tenants away from the league and induce them to come back under the law.

on ikvx October wisdom of the wholesale arrests Ik questioned by tne Fall Mall Gazette, and even in the case of Mr. Parnell this journal says; "Tbe pretexts in the warrants can only be regarded as fairly colorable pretexts. If they were more than that they should have heen arrested a month Newcastle Chronicle, owned and edited by Joseph Cowen, in a bitter article, says substantially the same thing, and prophesies that the government will repent what It has done in a very short time. A few of bis remarks may be quoted; "They have m.aae another call upon the of Resources of civilization, forsooth! that were not a thoughtless It was a shameless phrase. In this country we have not been accustomed to call those civilized resources which filled the Hapsburg auugcons and the Neapolitan prisons; wiiich in the days of the second empire made every Frencn Jail a chamber of horrors; which charged the German strongholds with the cherished leaders of the people and own priests, and which are now darkening the highways that lead to the Siberian mines, Y'et tnose examples, much they may vary In the degree of rasping cruelly by which they bave been carried out, are in principle anti spirit exact counterparts of the repressive measures now eni- ployed to keep Ireland in order, in folly they do not differ one iota, while in ultimate failure they have been, are, will, and deserve to be all There was a rumor at Leeds yesterday morning that one of the un- exhau.sted of for Ireland Mr.

The streets are filled with noisy men, all bent on mischief. The Jails are surrounded by throngs, who have all day been following the different prisoners to the court and back to applaud those belonging to the league. The magistrates have condemned from tne bench ttie conduct of the people, and have proclaimed that the military and police have been both ordered henceforth to carry firearms loaded with hall cartridges.

There was not tho slightest demonstration in court, and beyond a few whispering comments not a sound was heard.

Not the slightest disturbance occurred, and there appeared not the slightest disposition to do tne prisoner injury. During the proceedings, however, a middle- aged white-haired man approached several men and Akbeii for a Fistol. Among those asked was a detective who marched him off to police headquarters. He said bis name was George Berthard, a lawyer, and he allowed a diploma isaued to Itiiu on at Columbus, Ohio. He said he tought in General rcgimeni and showed two gun wounds iu the legs and a bayonet wound on the side or the he.ad which he s'aid he received at the battle oi Shiioh.

He also stated if he only had heen fortunate enough to get a pistol he intended to walk around beside counsel and pretend to be taking a ciie of tobacco out or ids pocket, and t.ake out his pistol and blow him into etornity. 'i'he only thine he regretted was that he inaue a miserable failure. Bnt it he bad known enough not to speak to a detective he could have got tho pistol, hut the detective took bim in, thinking he was a crank or drunk. He had evidently been The Line ot Defence. George Seovlile, attorney for Guiteau, in asking for lime presented affidavits In which he gave the lines of defence, which he said would be mainly two, insanity and medical malpractice.

The latter plea was unexpected, and made somewhat of a sensation. He desired thirty delay, and opportunity to call tne same number of witnesses as the government, namely, forty-four. On the question of insanity he proposed to call among others tbe tollowing wiiueose.s: Francis Brawlev and Francis Scoviile, ho" would testify that Luther Guiteau, fatuor of the r'ris- oner, was a monomaniac on the subject of religion for some years; Everett Fox of Dover, K. who witnessed tbe shooting and heard Guiteau use words which showed uumlsiakalile insanity.

Mr. Scoville, counsel for Guiteau, came before the Criminal Court Monday to ask the court to decide the question about the government paying expenses ot witnesses for the defence.

The Statement Which the Assassin Was Not Allowed to Rend In Court. ashington October following is the statement which Guiteau wished to read in court yesterday when calleo upon to plead, but which the court ruled out as inappropriate at that stage of the proceedings: If the court please, 1 wish to say that I have heen lerrlblv vlllitied by the press, and it has made some persons bitter and impulsive against me. On October tbe New York Herjdd published seven columns from my autobiography, which I expect to issue soon in a book.
