MR GLADSTONE ON THE IRISH QUESTION.
(Reoelved Jane 6, 1.30 p.m.)
London, Jane 5. A demonstration m honor of Mr Gladstone took place yesterday at Singleton Abbey, when a gathering of forty thousand Welsh Liberals formed a procession and defiled before tfie late Premier m the Abbey grounds. In two long speeches Mr Gladstone restated his position m connection with the Irish questions and declared he was ready to modify his scheme for the purchase of the land m Ireland by the State. He further said that the exclusion of the Irish members from the Imperial Parliament might be left an open question, it being one which was subsidiary to the great international question which involved the cohesion of the empire and the' happiness of the people.
