EDITOR O'BRIEN RECEIVES A GflEAT WELCOME IN MONTREAL, London, May 12.—Mr. Gladstone waR a fenest at luncheon at the house of Dr. Parker, the pastor of the City Tempi*, in company with forty Nonconformist ministers, delegates to the conference of Congregational pastors now in progress hero. Referring to the resolution passed by the conference putting that body on record as against the passage of the government coercion bill, Mr. Gladstone said there had never existed any reason for charging the Parnellito party with complicity witu criminals, or in any  whatever countenancing crime. Six years ago, he said, ho himself had denounced the Parnellites as dangerous men, but that was totally different from charging thom with beijDg or affiliating with criminals. Their Hpeeehes may have been intemperate, but the utterances of Liyd Salisbury, Lord Churchill and Maj. Saunderson had been far more 'dangerous to the oublic peace than those of any of the Porndflltos. The Parnellites' alliance with the Liberal party, he held, was entirely open and devoid of secrecy, and had been brought about by a community of belief that compared favorably with the Tories' alliance with the Parnellites in 1881 and 1885. The present coercion bill he characterized as an insidious measure. It attacked the liberty of the press, was designed to create new offenses, and altogether was a dishonoring and degrading bill, both to its authors and to the people of Ireland. 8AULT ON IDA DOWNS.

J., May 18.—The trial of the Rev. Dr. George R. Bristor, indicted for assault, was resumed, the first witness being Notary Theodore P. Reed for the defence. He testified to taking Ida Downs' sworn retraction on Dec. 81,1885. Dr. Bristor was then called to the stand. He kissed the Bible reverently, and then tcfld his story. He said he was 34 years old, and entered the ministry in 1871. He was made a doctor of divinity in 1881. He went to Spring Valley in March, 1885, as pastor of the Methodist church, and Ida Downs went to his house in November from the Brooklyn orphan asylum to do general housework during Mrs. Bristor's illness. He claims that the first intimation he had of her serious charges against him was when he was summoned b / Trustee John C. Wood to attend a meeting of the Methodist trustees in Mr. Seaman's house. He says he was almost overpowered by the blow and at once went home and asked Ida why she had told these terrible lies about him. Ida tried to run away, and Dr. Bristor, angered beyond control, struck her in the mouth. She went out, and when she returned at 9 o'clock that night he locked her in a room, where she remained until the next day, when she retracted the statement against him He denied that he had anything to do with the retraction, and also denied the truth of all of Ida's serious charges. Mr. Bristor's cross examination lasted an hour. Mr. Hoffman asked: the Prosecution.

The Canadian people would allow no technicalities of title Cnr iwsitiou to stand in the way of necessary exposure, when it became a question of bringing to task an oppressor and au enemy of any of the race* which went to make up the population of the Dominion. The people interrupted th- address with cries of "That's riffiit!"' and ''Down with tyrants!" Mr. O'Brien replied at length, and was cheered to the echo. RIVAL MERCHANTS The only details of the killing as yet secured are emnodied in the statements oi Abrams, his wife and the Earle woman and the tatter's mother, who were in Abram's hot at the time of the killing. From these It appears that "Mag," who has recently beconw a mother, was mistreated by Rhodes, whoreturned from Rockville Center Tuesday undAr the influence of liquor. The woman fled from his cabin and took refuge in that of Abrams'. Rhodes followed, but Abrams looked the door and refused to admit him. After vainly trying to force the door Rhodes, so Abrams' story goes, went to his home and returning in a few minutes* with a revolver threatened to lire into the cabin unless the door wu opened.

Coroner Cronin and a jury visited "The Hummocks."
