THE DEACON CASE.
One of tlio Children Kidnaped by tlie j
Mother.
Paris, Nov. 4.—Another great sensa
tion has been developed in the Deacon
case. As soon as the Tribunal of tlie Seine
delivered its decision dismissing Mrs.
Deacon's suit for divorceand ordering the
eldest child, then iv the convent, to be de
livered up to Mr. Deacon, Mrs. Deacon
hastened secretly to the Convent of Our
Cady of the Assumption, in tho Depart
ment of the Marne, bent upon carrying
off the child and thus delving the au
thority of the; French court and baffling
Deacon. The sympathy ofthe nuns ol
the c invent ami the people Of the neigh
borhood have been with Mrs. Heat-on.
who is known to tbe latter as "La Prin
.'.-_.* Amene.tine," and is much beloved
for her goodness and kindness to the poor I
and suffering. When Mrs. Deacon ar
rived the news of the court's decision was .
known at the convent and Mrs. Deacon I
was admitted as usual. Mrs. Deacon hud i
a carriage at the gate, and seemed calm
and serene as usual, evidently suppress
ing her emotions in order not to excite
.suspicion. She asked and obtained leave
to take the elder of the children to ride,
and after kissing tne younger tenderly,
walked with the former to the carriage!
At lirst she drove slowly, but increased
ber speed as the convent and adjoining
group of houses disappeared from view"
Mr. Deacon drove up to tlio convent
shortly after his wife was gone. lie was
amazed and maddened when he learned
the situation, but he was not more amazed
tli ni tho Cady Superior was when she
learned the strategy of Mrs. I leacou. Mr.
Deacon nt once appealed to the police,
who readily joined him in attempting to
overtake her. it seems impossible that
she could escape lrom France, as the po
lice everywhere have been warned to be
on the lookout atnl to arrest her and her
child wherever found. Deacon is deter
mined to get possession of the child.

LoNPOX, Nov. 4. —Monroe it Co., bank
ers of Paris, who have in their posses-ion
the mouey known a.s the Paris lund be
longing to the Irish Parliamentary party,
have written a letter to Justin McCarthy,
in which they say they have consulted j
counsel in regard to the release of the j
fund, and counsel advises them the}* can- !
not part with tho money unless author- i
i/.ed to do so by the Tribunal of the seine, j
No compromise between the two sections
ofthe Irish Parliamentary party regard- ;
ing the disposition of the "fund, they add,
can tree them from tbe responsibility. |
Months may elapse bef.. re the Tribunal of
tiie Seine gives a decision in the matter.
The French in Dahomey.
Paris, Nov. 4. -Several newspapers i
here assert the Government has sup- j
pressed part of the news it received from !
Dahomey. The sick list of the French
force is heavy, owing to the prevalence
of fever. Colonel Dodds will have to wait
for reinforcements before he resumes
operations against the Dahomeyans.

B -cal to the Rr.cof.r*-Union-.
Xew York, Nov. 4. —The Irish-Ameri
can mass meeting at Cooper Union to
night was largely attended, and I
enthusiasm -was manifested. General
i Dennis !•'. Burke made a lengthy
j in presenting Minister Egan cis < heiirman
| ofthe meeting, lit* said that thirty years
I ago England was united with the rebels
lof the South to destroy tho t'nion. To
day she is allied with the leaders of the
Democracy of the North to force on this
I Nation free trade. We helped to beat
! them with bullets, ami next Tuesday will
help beat them with ballots.
Minister Egan was warmly received
when he assumed the chair, ile said he
knew the reason he was selected to speak
I this evening was because he was singled
out by the un-American mugwumps and !
pro-British section of the Democratic J
party as the butt ol" ail tiieir bile ami j
venom against those of tho Irish race
who will not meekly bend their neck to
Ihe yoke of that party. From tbe first
day his name was mentioned for the
Chilean mission the mugwump and
Democratic press,.witb some few honor
able exceptions, kept time with the Lon
don Times in assailing him. In Chile,
while loyally endeavoring to uphold the
national honor, he was treacberouly at- I
tacked trom the rear by those people, and j
but for the thoroughly American stand ■
maintained by President Harrison, Mr. I
Blame and otiier members of tin* Cabinet, I
American prestigeand honor would have
j suffered a defeat from which it would
| have taken many a long year to recover.
Egan said the reason tho English Hag
was so much respected throughout tbe
world was the fact that tho humblest
Englishman abroad can obtain redress
■ for wrongs promptly, and anj- ship of the
: British navy in hail would be ready to
promptly exact satisfaction. An officer I
! nigh in the command ofthe English navy
said to one of our officers in Valparaiso I
j thai if an assault was committed on his
linen like that on the men ofthe Haiti-j
i more he wouid settle the matter at the
I inu/.e/.les of guns and explain to his Gov
eminent afterwards.
"Why can't Americans act this way,"
saiii Egan. "Simply because there are s •
many unconverted copperheads ever
watchful and ever ready to take the part c
ofany foreign foe against their own coun- ,
try; that a howl would at once be raised |
for the head officer who should dare do !
j so. I felt, myself, as an American, that
I the glorious flag oi this republic should
i wave at least as proudly as the standard
jof England. I thought, too, that I under
stood those were the sentiments of tue
Republican party and its standard
bearer, President Harrison, and I found
1 was not mistaken. I therefore adopted
the course I pursued in (.'ldle, and am
proud to say to-night that my every act
and word in that connection met un
qualified approval of such representa
tives of American patriotism as President
Harrison and .James <.. Blame."
Ex-Congressman linerty of Chicago
and John Brennan of lowa spoke,

Jersey City (X. J.i, Nov. 4.—The Jer
sey City Democrats gave a hearty wel
come to ex-President Cleveland to-night.
lie was here as the guest ot the Hudson
Democratic Society, and 3,ooomen rushed
into the Auditorium wnen the doors j
opened. Mr. Cleveland was greeted with I
deafening applause when introduced us j
"New Jersey's favorite and favored son." i
After some felicitous remarks i leve
land said in part: "Eight years ago
when another Presidential campaign ad
! vanced nearly to the precise stage the
I present one has reached, 1 came to your
State anN declared it to tie my undrstand
ii-tr of the Democratic creed that ail taxa
tion should be limited to tiie require
ments of an economical government, and
every cent taken from the pockets of the
people beyond these requirements .'.eis
no better than robbery. I need note-all
to your minds the result of that cam
! paign. With a Democrat.. President :
j and House of lleprese.itativ. s, you know
i how faithfully we attempted io engraft
these tio."rims upon the policy ofthe
I country, and how constantly we worked
i to relieve the people from the burdens of
taxatiec whicii had their origin in the
exigencies of the terrible ami wasting
war, but continued through many years
of peace to serve the purposes of private
and selfish interests. You remember the
measure of relief passed by the Demo
cratic House and defeated by the Hepub
lican Senate.
"From the recreancy ofthe Senate we
appealed again in another Presidential
election to the people, with the pledge
that if intrusted with power we would
continue the struggle to rectify the
wrongs of an unjust tariff. In the" cam
paign of 18S8 we still followed the banner
upon which was emblaesoned, 'Unneces
sary taxation is unjust taxation.' It is
needless to remind you of the agencies
which operated to defeat the Democracy
in that campaign. One feature of it, how
ever, is interesting, lt wets impossible
lor our opponents to overlook the feet
that our contention in the cause of the
people had arrested the attention ofthe
voters of tbe land to such an extent that
there was danger in further insistence on
tlie burdens then nesting upon the people
of tbo land. Then it was that a concession
was made by them that our taritl laws
i ought to be amended and readjusted, and
then it was that the party whose repro- I
sentatives in the Senate had defeated our!
plan of relief impiored the people tol
trust them, aud rang the changes on the!
tielusive cry, 'Let the tariff be readjusted I
by its friends.' Thus pledged, they j
| gained the ascendancy in every branch
I of the Government, and the tariff has j
I been amended, if not by its friends. »vi- !
i deutly by the friends of those grew rich
| under its unjust opportunities.
"Has the party which promised tone
tlio friend of the people lightened the!
I burdens of life iv the homes of our land '!
I l)o you ami your wives and children en
joy tbe comforts and advantages your j
labor should supply T Where are the in
crossed wages of our workingmen, whicii
they were assured would follow the
amendment ofthe tariff by its friends.!
j You know broken promises and violated
pledges are scattered aii along the path of '-.
' the Itepublican party since four years ago j
they came to tbe people with "their fair '
words.
"The Democratic party, with no faith
lessness to excuse, and no shortcomings
to explain, again appeals to the voters of
the laud for their suffrages, anu declares !
its continued adhesion to tbe doctrine
that the Government has no right to bur- j
den the people by taxation beyond the i
j necessities of its economic adininistra- j
Ition. The National Democracy rests its |
hope for success upon the people's intel
ligence and pattiot-siu, and upon the
nt trust that the principles of our
I■ : rs will not be bartered away. In ib_
front rank, ae.d in the thickest of tho
fight we shall stiii look for the banner of

LONDON GOSSIP.
X.VnONAhl.ls KSSAT-SFIED "WITH
TIIK HOME P.I I.E B"U___.
General Pellef That tho Monetary
Conference "Will Effect Somo Sat
isfactory Arrangement.
[Copyright bythe A._-ociat_d Press.]
London, Nov. 4. —When Gladstdne,
soon after taking the reins of office, held
a conference with Md terthy and I.' Briea
on home rule, he gave them the distinct
impression that the forthcoming bill of
the Liberal Uovernment would provide
for full representation of Irish members
in the Imperial Parliament. Tkepn gross
of tbo bill in the Cabinet coun
cils during the present week dark
ened the prospects oi its approval
by the Nationau-ts. The supporters
ofthe Ministry say the Cabinet is dis
cussing favoral ly a clause to retain Irish
representation in Parliament, but reduce
the number of members entitled to vote
on Imperial questions only from 103 to 78
umler the new e-chemo of redistribution
of seats.
Another point regarding which tbe
Irish leaders are likely to come into col
lision with the Ministry is the decision
that the Imperial Parliament shall by a
two-thirds majority have power to vote
on all bills passed by the Irish Parlia
ment. The Irish Nationalists demand
tbat the sole right to veto such bills be
vested in the crown, under direct advice
ofthe Irish Ministers. The McCarthyites
are in .re pleased with the amendments
giving the Irish Parliament control over
the police and judiciary, and liberal
provisions to settle land questions after
the funds under the existing Pure-chase
Act are exhausted.
Coth tlie Liberal and Conservative
wire-pullers are trying to sei/.e advantage
in tlie agitation springing op because of
the depression of agriculture to form a
farmers' party. Tho demands made in
clude the readjustment of rates of
farmers' pay for holdings, the formation
of land courts, reduction of tithes and in
come taxes, and reforms of the game
law. The farmers are now faring the
worst year known to the present genera
tion, and seeking relief in immediate
legislation on these lines.
Now that the m.in -ership of tho Mone
tary Conference is fully made up, it is
evident' that tiie advocates of a single
standard are in the majority. England,
Germany, Austria and Belgium will
send delegations baying aprepondi ranee
of niouo-iiietalists, but the growing be
lief in London financial circles is that the
conference will effect some arrangement.
The talk formerly indulged in about tbe
futility of Congress is no longer heard.
The President of the Institute of Bank
ers, in his inaugural address, referred to
iho currency question as urgently
demanding a reasonable settlement.
Tbe duty of the Government, he eaid,
is to find a practiced remedy, for existing
difficulties could never be met by the
oretic discussion. This declaration hail
great significance as a distinct advance on
tin* latum tfavre treatment of the subject.
The attitude of the English delegates is
expected to guide the decisions to a great
degree, i'hey have as yet received no
definite instructions, it is reported that
the Government is considering suuges
tlons by influential firms of Manchester,
Liverpool and Condon to settle the
question upon a basis of reciprocal I
concessions, the gold standard countries I
taking silver coins at par and the silver
countries giving in return reductions „,
the tarilis. A leading expert on tho sub- !
jeei told the Associated Press eorro- I
spondent that reciprocity upon a silver
coinage leasts would be impracticable.
Now Bath for Chloride Prints.
An amateur photographer has Intro
duced a new method ol making chloride
paper easier ae.d gui Ker to finish than
any other silver paper, and be claims,
also, that the process will bear favorable
comparison with any method of printing
and finishing at present in vogue. The
main points of superiority of this process
are: That the bath is made at thu time of
use and is extremely simple; it tones
the jeirts more quickly than any other;
it absolutely obviates tlie unevenness of
toning, which is usually the bugbear of
chloride prints; it renders overtoiling
impossible and gives a pleasing gray
black tone, resembling platinotype.
The prints are completely toned in one
and one-half to two minutes. The tray
need not be moved at all, tend if six
prints, are immersed it takes all
the operator's timo to keep them
going. As fast as he can get
out of the tray he can insert a fresh
one. The deviser ol" tiiis process stales
that he can completely tone half a print
first, then the otiier halt, and no dividing •
line will be apparent, and, furthermore,
tha: a doze:: air bubbles or streaks can
be left on tlio print, causing bright red
snots upon the otherwise finished print,
yot if these be covered over and the ton
ing continued there will I c no trace
whatever ofthe marks wh. _i finished.
Many a wise man has picked np a good
suggestion where some fool dropped it.—

DEMOCRATIC MANIFESTO.
Xew York, Xov. 4.—Following is a
synopsis of an address to the people of
the Cnited states issued by the Demo
cratic Xational Committee to-day:
*'.\s the campaign will soon end, it is
right and necessary that we should say a
few words to you. There is no man,
woman or child in the United Status ■ *...•
is not affected by the tariff laws. Since
ISt;*i a thousand men, by means of indi
vidual corporate wealth, have been mas
ters of our tariff system, Tiieir power is
sufficient to enforce a continuance and
increase in time of peace tlie taxes on tiie
necessaries of life originally imposed in
a tune of war, only because of the actual
needs of the Government. Wealth,
which under tiie former laws was dis
tributed among all classes engaged in in
dustrial life, is centered in the hands ofa
few.
"The masses of the people gain their
bread by labor, brains and hands, and
are struggling on wearily, looking to
your united action for relief. The feel
ings strongest in your breasts to-day is
the conviction in each of your minis
that every man and woman among you
is forced to pay a [nice for tlie very neces
saries of life which ought not be paid,
and a great proportion of which does not
go to the Government, but to a small num
ber of favored people wiio control the
Government, lou know this class con
trols and uses the Government, It is a
band of moneyed men, combined for
sordid purposes, and actually riding the
Hepublican party. Federal office-homers
are part of its machinery. It succeeded
in l_s_ in defeating < rover Cleveland by
the Intimidation of workmen and the
corrupt use of money before you became
aware of the danger. You are not now
ignorant of the peril, ln no country in
tne whole civilized world in which the
people have a right to vote heis the pur
pose to carry an election by the use of
money .een more plainly shown. You
will not remain passive spectator- of this
scene.
"The people of New York, remember
ing the high character ofthe public servi
ces of ('rover Cleveland, eind knowing
his election is a certain guarantee ofa
wiser, purer and better Government,
will rally to his support. Many Republi
cans in tin. State of New York, who love
their country and despise the men now
controlling their party, will come to his
aid, and hi wiil win an overwhelming
victory in ids well-beloved state. The
farmers of Indiana wili show tbat a thou
sand beneficiaries of i,u ral legislation
cannot again, by fraud, Knavery and
purchase obtain the electoral vote of that
state. The substantial yeomanry of New
Jersey wili teach contributors on the* day
of the Presidential election a lesson they
will never forget. ihe farmers and
workingmen oi Connecticut will remem
ber the wrongs at the polls iv Xovember,
and the people of Delaware and West
Virginia will follow the example.
"Rear in mind that you owe to the men
who maintain the present corrupting, in
iquitous tariff the initiation and continu
ing threat of the force bill, a measure In
troduced for furthering Reot-blican par
tisan schemes. Sailing in thi ir nefarious
plans, they again put tneir hands in their
pockets and raised a campaign fund
whicii the Government, nnder the force
t ill, Mould have supplied them with.
President Harrison is in, favor of any
method of carrying federal elections
which that dangerous bid "supplies, 'i'he
silence ofthe Republican leaders on the
subject does not, we are sure, deceive
you.
"You must, on the Sth day of Xovem
ber, make a choice which will vitally
atlect the interests of tne country. The
individual vote of each one of you is of
supremo importance. Under Grover
Cleveland as President, the control
ling motive will bo the greatest
good to the greatest number, and '
public office will be sacredly re- |
garded as a public trust. Civil service
wili not be dragged again-t v ill through
the mire of nominating conventions, but
the laws regulating it will be honestly
enforced. Agriculture and commerce,
growing steadily under wiser laws, will
greatly increase the national prosperity.
'I'he individual workingman wiil nnd his
wants taken more into account, and !
reasonable demands more readily listened ;
to. Xo com oi nat ion will be able to dictate
laws to drover Cleveland or to the ileino
cratic majority in Congress,
"We isic every one of you to labor
without ceasing for Cleveland and Stev
enson, and ior a good Government under
a Democratic administration, un election
day lay aside ail duties except the duties
of that day. Protect the respective polls i
-re; ti * .*. fraud or intimidation,
thority can etui ower any man to
re _ i.e. the lawful casting of yo ir
rightful ballots. Right is with as, and
wo au* certain of vi tory. Make it an I
overwhelming triumph."

Edward Mitchell, attorney for tho

written a letter to the Cnited States Mar
shal and Ins lector of Klsctions in regard
to Sheehan's instructions, citing tlie Re
vised Statutes, and telling the Marshal to
instruct each Supervisor and Deputy tbat j
wherever there is eieey conflict between
the law of the Cnited States and the state ;
the law ofthe United .states is para
mount. The Marshal is also to inform
Supervisors and Deputies that the I
States intends to carry out the proves- i
ions of Section 2010 of the Revised Stat
utes, una see that every Supervisor and j
Deputy, it requested 'to su] port him,
shall be allowed to take any position be

any person interfering with them in any

part: "The extraordinary pronuncimento
issued by William 1. Sheehan, I hair
man ofthe Democratic SUite Campaign
Committee, directing the Democrats to
prevent Supervisors ol Election and
United States Marshals from performing
any of their duties inside theguard rail on
election day, is revolutionary, frequent
convictions have been had in the Federal
(.'ourt of persons who committed offenses
of the same nature as now advised by
Sheehan. In view of these convictions,
it seems hardly possible that any person
will attempt to follow Sheehan's orders,
but, fearing such attempts. I again in
struct the Supervisors of Election tleat
they are to go inside theguard rail on elec
tion day and remain there i.c.ore or be-j
hind the ballot-boxes, as they deem best, j
until the voting is done, the votes can- !
vassed, the returns made and the Board i
Of Election Inspectors adjourns."

Los Angeles, Xov. 4.—The Express
says this evening that a gigantic scheme
bas been unearthed, which has deprived
hundreds of voters of the franchise. The
matter leaked out during the recent bond
election iv this cily. 'ihe schome is ay
follows: Belore registration closed a num
ber oi Domocrats representing triemselve,
cis registration clerks, went lrom hoi, .* to
house and store to store, getting names
The Republicans gave their names ami
data to the supposed clerks. The suppo
sition is tnat tie. clerks destroyed them
and when the official clerks came around' '
the voters, supposing themselves duly '
registered, refused to give the data a>*ain ■
and when tbey attempted to vole Wednes
day they found their names were not on
I tbe register. Tne Union League held a
| meeting last night and will probe the
. matter to ttie bottom and will place it be
fore the < Irand Jury, there is much m-
I dignation over the fraud perpetrated. It
is estimated.that hundreds of votei
I disfranchised. The Union League will

He Was the Big Party Himself.
A story is told ofa gentleman promi
nently connected wltn one ol un
foundries in Pittsburg. Tne gentleman
in question is an un usually large man,
very tall and far around. Finding him
self caught in a little town about seventy
five -Biles from Pittsburg one night, with
no train going to the oity, and being very
anxious to reach there at 11 o'clock, he
wired to an express train down the track
to slop for him.
"We stop for oflleials only," came the
answer, t.uick as a tlash went tlie sec
ond telegram: "Will you stop for a
large party ?"
"Yes," was the reply, and tiie long ex
press slowed np and st ipped when it
reached tbe little town, and the gentle
man complacently stepped aboard.
"Where is tho large party?*' inquired
the conductor, with wide-open, aston
ished eyes as ho ge./.ed about the empty
depot.
"Ain't I large enough?" chuckled tbo
delighted new passenger.
The conductor glared, then burst into a
hearty laugh as the fitness of the applica
tion burst upon him.—Cievelaud iTaiu*
