^ General Walter Compliments
Lincoln and New—Notes.
Lokdos, May An interview with Mr.
William a Caine, Unionist member of par¬
liament for Barrow-in-Furness, leaves the
impression that he would like to declare
himself for Mr. Gladstone and Home Rule,
but that he doe* not yot feel able to leave his
friends on the other side of the house.
There has bean going on quietly within a
short time a revulsion of feeling among the
Unionists generally outside the absolute
leaders of the party towards Mr. Gladstone
and the cause the Grand Oid Mau so gal¬
lantly supports.
Since the Birmingham fight and the ex¬
change of bitter letters between Chamberlain
and Churchill, many of the Un ionists whose
interest in their pari/ was languid at best,
are about willing to seizs upon almost any
pretext to got out of th# anomalous posi¬
tion fa which they find theuiselvqs.
Lacks the Neco.snrjr Nerve.
Mr. Caine is one of these, but he appar¬
ently lacks the stamina to make the leap
Ho said that it was possible that he might
retire shortly, that he could not desert his
fritr.idS. If many others who find them¬
selves in the same condition as Mr. Caine
would resign, Gladstouians feel that this
would open the way for their seats to be oc¬
cupied by Home Rulers. A movement is on
foot now looking to this very object, as it is
believed before the next session of parlia¬
ment the seats now occupied by some of the
Unionists will be empty and ready for con-
testiug. ' t

It whs impossible, he said, to oonceive of
