Thirty-eight Parnollites last night night signed a request asking Parnell to convene a meeting of the nationalist members of tho housv today, purnell declined, despite tho fact that tho rules of tho parly prowdo that a meeting shall be called when twenty members mem-bers sign a request. Key-cral Key-cral raruollitos complain that they were not informed of the full facts in connection with (Hailstone's attitude toward Parnell, as set forth in his letter to Morley, when they voted yesterday to retain Parnell in the leadersliir. Although Parnell refused to call a meeting of tho Irish members of commons, the meeting was held today. Parnell was present and presided. Silence was observed as he entered tho room. After Af-ter calling tho meeting to order, Parnell explained that he had reconsidered re-considered his determination and called the meeting. The meeting lasted half an hour. There was a great divergence of opinion manifested man-ifested throughout the discussion. No delinito action was agreed upon and tho meeting adjourned to 5 o'clock this morning. It was learned after the adjournment of the meeting that a strong feeling iu favor of Parnoll's resigning the leadership was manifested, mani-fested, but the minority vehemently opposed it. Truth, Henry Laboucliere'a paper, abandons Parnell.

Parnell was present and ocoupiod his usual seat. I'arnell Must Iteaisu. London, Nov. 2!i. Paroell's speech at the opening of the meetiug of the Irish members to-day gave no indication indica-tion of retaining the leadership. Nolan was the only member present who favored Parnell's retention in that office. McCarthy, whoso frequent allusions to Parnell's great sacrifices for the Irish cause applauded, said he hoped that after due consideration Parnell would see bis way to retire for the present ami save the sacred cause of Irish independence. inde-pendence. SeUon said ho regretted that Mr. Gladstone's views rcgardiug the leadership had been withheld yesterday. yes-terday. He sympathetically appealed to Parnell to reconsider his position as the question had assumed a new phase since the publication of Gladstone's letter. Personal considerations must bo sacrificed for the cause. Parnell maintained an attitude of reserve throughout the meeting. Ho hoped a cable from tho delegates in America . would reach London before the meet- ing adjourned; but none was received. The decision to reassemble at 5 o'clock was caused by the hope that a lispatch would arrive in tho inteival. It is a foregone jonclusion that tho meeting must result in Parnell's resignation. The nationalists met again but adjourned ad-journed until Monday without action. Gladatnn'a Advice to Parnell. London, Nov. 20. At the request of Gladstone, Morley has communicated to Parnell a letter written Monday to Morley by Gladstone. In it Mr. Gladstone Glad-stone says: . "After using all the means of observation and reflection in my power I have arrived at the conclusion 4 that notwithstanding the splendid services serv-ices rendered by Parnell to his country, his continuance at the present moment in leadership would be productive of consequences disastrous in the highest degree to the causo of Ireland." Gladstone adds further, as an expression expres-sion of his conclusions, that Parnell's continuance as leader would not onl place many friends of the Irish cause in a position of great embarrassment, but would render his (Gladstone's) retention re-tention of the leadership of the liberal party, based as it has been mainly upon the prosecution of the Irish cause, almost al-most a nullity. These views, he says, he had expressed personally to McCarthy. Mc-Carthy. This expansion of his views be begged McCarthy to regard as confidential confiden-tial if he found Parnell contemplated spontaneous action, but ho also begged that McCarthy would make known to the Irish party at today's meeting that such was liis conclusion if he sliould Cud Parnell had uot ia contemplation , any stop of the nature indicated. H wrote to Morley in case McCarthy should be unable to communicate wits Parnell. In conclusion Gladstone sayst "I have thought it best to put this io terms simple and direct, much as I should have liked to alleviate the per r.,;- ,, lonul nature of tho situation as re-lpects re-lpects the manner of convoying what hiy public duly makes it hu obligation to'say." it is learned that Gladstone hud an Interview with Parncll before the publication pub-lication of tlie letter and urged him to retire
