PABNELL SPEAKS IN COMMONS
In Snpn.rt of His Amendment to
Xne Address in Reply to tne Queen's
Speech.
London, Auk. 24. In the House of Com
mons this evening Mr. Parnell spoke in sup
port of bis proposed amendment to the ad
dress in reply to the Queen.'s speech. The
amendment expresses the fear that tenant
farmers in Ireland will experience great dif
ficulty in paying rents during the winter
and numerous evictions will follow, causing
widespread and social disorder. It depre
cates any attempt to transfer the loss due to
inability to pay rents from the owners of
land to the taxpayers of Great Britain and
Ireland by an extension of State assisted
purchase on the basis of rents fixed when
prices were higher than they are now. Mr.
Parnell said that the people of Ireland had
every reason to be satisfied with the progress
which had brought them to their present
position. With a majority of the Liberals
favoring autonomy patience would make
theirs a winning card. He admitted that the
rent question would probably be a source of
trouble. Mr. Gladstone's purchase system
would have safely settled the land question
and without a settlement it would be impos
sible to settle the Irish question. The gov
ernment must reduce the rent at the ex
pense of the landlords or of the taxpayers of
the kingdom. Mr. Parnell argued that the
way to develop the resources of Ireland was
to allow the Irish themselves to develop
them. He accused the government of en
couraging the landlords to make wholesale
evictions, knowing that agrarian crimes al
ways followed evictions. The Irish, he said,
would try to be patient, but the exactions
by landlords of impossible rents might pro
duce exasperation. The landlords would
then clamor for coercion, which would come,
and which would not stop at criminals, but
would attack political opponents. Mr. Par
nell suggested as an alleviation of the situa
tion that judicial tenancies be fixed at three
years instead of fifteen years and that Tents
be revised. He concluded by expressing his
belief that the Irish people would never sub
mit to a government not tneir own.
Mr. Gladstone said tne government naa
taken an unusual course by going outside of
the speech from the throne. He intimated
that he would take no part upon tne division
on tne amendment to tne aaaress
offered by the Parnellite members be
cause he deprecated any attempt to
force a definite as well as a premature ex
pression of opinion upon the policy which
government had foreshadowed for its future
guidance. He thought the policy of the
government a very complex one. The gov
ernment evidently intended to introduce a
large scheme of land purchase. Was the
tenant to be treated upon the real rentable
value of his holdings and the landlord upon
the basis of the judicial rent and was the
Slate to make up the difference? No parlia
ment could ever execute such a fatal propo
sition. The Unionists issued a whip this evening
against the Parnellite amendment to the
address in reply to tne yu: 3n s speecn. air.
Chamberlain will move the adjournment of
the debate to-moi.-ow, thus securing the
floor for the opening of the discussion on
Thursday, when he will offer a motion for a
division upon the Parnellite amendment.
Mr. Gladstone will start for Munich to-mor
row for a three weeks' holdiday. He he? ar
ranged to return at a moment's notice.

A Cashier Who Warn Too Kind.
BpsTON, Aug. 24. George R. Chapman,
for thirteen years cashier of the Merchants
National bank, has resigned and his resigna
tion has been accepted. President Franklin
Haven, jr., says that Chapman was too kind
and too easy for a man in his position, but
that the bank's accounts are all right. It is
rumored that Ur. Chapman was mixed np in
the speculations which resulted in the fail
ure of C. P. Mudge and that certain brokers
are very angry because Chapman loaned
Mudge about $20,000, for which he received
a memorandum note, and when he failed
Chapman took $20,000 from Madge's account
and placed in its stead the memorandum
note. The brokers who lost mony by
Mudge's failure have appointed a committee
to wait npon the directors of the Merchants'
bank to ascertain what action the bank
would take to make good their loss
es, and it is said the directors are
considering a proposition to make good some
part of the losses. One of the committee
says that so far as the brokers are concerned
Mr. Chapman has done nothing to call for
prosecution. Whether the directors would
do anything in this direction is a question.

THE RELBASE OP CCTTIPiCi.
Lawyer Sedgwick Still Pursuing His
mission.
Washington, Aug. 24. Minister Jackson
has telegraphed the department of State
confirming the reported release of Catting.
The release will not affect in the least Mr.
Sedgwick's mission. The government does
not at present concern itself with any ques
tion of damages due Catting, but will use
the information obtained through Mr. Sedg
wick in the furtherance of its negotiations
in securing a change in the Mexican laws in
so far as they are given a light to try Ameri
cans for acts committed in the United States.
The Arresures-Mondragon case is still a sub
ject of correspondence. At present the
only grievance of which the government can
take official cognizance is that of kidnapping
Arresures, wno was domiciled on this side ot
the border, it cannot be expected that Mon
dragon will be bui rendered for trial in the
United states, a special treaty clause inter
vening to warrant the refusal on Mexico's
part to surrender one of her citizens for any
crime.

THE STORm OFF TEXAS.
many Vessels Lylne Wrecked
In Its
Path.
Galveston, August 24. The late storm
off the coast proves to have been more de
structive to small vessels than at first report
ed. At Redhurst bar a vessel is lying bottom
up. The schooner Livonia Perkins is lying
in the bay a complete weck. Two of her
crew are reported drowned. The sloop Katie
J. went to pieces off Pelican Island. Her
crew were all saved. Near Indianola the
schooner Lottie Mayo is reported ashore and
all hands lost. All the small craft in the
bay from the shoal to Edwards Point are
said to have been lost. The schooner S. W.
Peiry went to pieces and her cargo of lumber
valued at $d,OUU is strewn all along the beach.
Her captain and cook were drowned. The
rest of the crew were saved. It is variously
estimated that the loss to the shipping will
range from $100,000 to $150,000. Indianola
is said to be a complete wreck, not more
than three or four nouses baving escaped de
struction by Friday's storm.
THE REPUBLICANS IN OHIO.
Prospects and Indications on the Eve
Of the Convention.
Columbus, Ohio, August 24. The candi
dates and delegates to the Republican State
convention have been coming in on every
train to-day and things are beginning to put
on the usual appearance of an approaching
convention. The candidates and their
friends are working earnestly but quietly,
and there is not as much bustle and excite?
ment as there generally is. The present
Secretary of State, General J. S. Robinson,
seems to have the field pretty much to him
self and will probably be renominated by
acclamation, but a slight opposition this
evening wants to nominate Daniel J. Ryan.
The only noticeable contests are for the
supreme judgeship and school commissioner.
Hon. L. J. Critchfield of Franklin, Connty
Judge Cox of Hamilton and Judge Marshall
J. Williams of Fayette are the candidates
and have about an equal showing, with Wil
liams possibly a little n the lead,
with Judge Cox second. The friends
of. Critchfield are confident,' how
ever, and claim he will go
into the convention to-morrow with as
strong a following as any of the candidates.
Judge Knowlee, of Marietta, is also a candi?
date, but as yet has exhibited but little
strength. Hon. W. SI.. Matthews, TJ. H.
Hester and Orange Fraser are candidates for
the clerkship of the Supreme court. Mat
thews and Fraser are abpnt even. The can
didates for school commissioner, of whom
Professor Eli Tappan, Elijah Burgess, Jay
P. Treat and E. S. Cox are in the field, em
body more interest than is usually centered
in this portion of the ticket. Professor
Treat, of Geneva, has an assured lead and is
named as the winner, but in spite of this
Professor Burgess and his friends are very
active and are building up a good vote. The
other candidates, while not prominent, are
hopeful and will cling to the last. ' William
Hahne, of Richland,-is the most prominent
candidate for the board ot public works.
The delegates from Hamilton connty are
considerably torn np over the ed
itorials in the Commercial Gazette
cautioning the convention not to have any
thing to do with that delegation as they were
a set of bums and ringsters. A prominent
delegate said to-mgni tnat it was wholly un
true and done through malice; that the Com
mercial made the statement because it did
not like two of the delegates, Alexander
Sands and T. C. Campbell. He said the del
egation was composed of the best men ever
sent to a convention. There will be 732 votes
in the convention.

Prospect House, Aug. 24. The Presi
dent. Dr. Ward and their guides went to
Hoyle pond this morning, bat though it was
a traditional fisherman's day, the sky being
overcast, the President's luck seemed to have
deserted him and the total result of the
morning's sport was a three pound salmon
and a small speckled trout. While the Pres
ident was on the jaunt Mrs. Cleveland and
Mrs. Folsom sat among the ladies on the
hotel porch and watched a game of lawn ten
nis in front of the building. The only ex
citing episode of the day was the report that
a bear had swam across the lake. The guides
who bad brought the story in found much
food for hilarity in the recital of how easily
the bear got away from some city hunters
who were after it.

Clen Island Good Enough for John

New York, Aug. 24. The story that J.

have started it unless the people who own
Pawson Park. Glen Island is good enough
for me and I am not in the market for any
more islands."

BOARD OF SBLfiOTlBEN.
miss Foster's Jewell Street Home
Visited A Favorable Re tort Br The
Committee Dr. Winchell Testifies
To Excellence Of The Institution.
A regular meeting of the Board of Select
men was held last evening. Present, Select
men Tyler (presiding), Feldman, Treat,Beech
er, Brown and Klenke.
Selectman Klenke reported that the Whal-
ley avenue bridge needed repairs to make it
safe and the committee on roads and bridges
recommended that this board request the
Board of Public Works to appoint a commit
tee to act with a committee from this Board
in regard to the matter. The committee's
recommendation was adopted.
The Pearl street bridge in Westville, was
also reported as in need of painting. The work
naa peen oroerea.
Selectman Feldman reported that himself
and Selectman Brown had visited Miss Fos
ter's baby farm on Jewell street so palled and
found the children contented and happy. He
said they went from cellar to garret in
both houses, inspected " the food
and bedding, and found the
place as clean and neat as could be ex-
pec tea in a nonse ot tnat kind, mere were
sheets on the beds, and they were clean ano
neat. They found nq vermin anywhere.
They examined the flour, meal, milk and
food, and found them good enough for any
one. They then visited the storeroom and
found everything all right. "So far as the
meat was concerned," said Mr. Feldman, "it
was as good as I have in my house. The
outhouses were no woxs.e than in many other
places.. Miss poster said she bad them
cleaned last fall and. should have them cleaned
ftgain this fall. J would say frankly
and freely, Mr. Chairman, without
knowing what tne bouse baa been heretofore,
that to-dav it is in better condition than
great many houses and tenements in this
city." Mr. Feldman said he told Miss Foster
that she must make monthly reports to the
Board and she promised to do so. one re
gretted that she had not made her reports
recmlarlv and said that there would be no
cause of complaint in this regard hereafter.
In closing Mr. Feldman said he proposed to
visit Miss Foster's place every month regu;
larly hereafter and there wouia De no mis
take about it.
Mr. Brown corroborated what had been
said bv Mr. Feldman.
Mr. Treat said he had seen some of the
members of the Board of Health on the sub
ject of baby farms and they had told him
that they thought the Boaid of Selectmen
were the proper authority to look after such
places.
Dr. Winchell entered the room at this
time. He said that he called at Miss Fos
ter's place yesterday by accident. He said
he had known much of Miss Foster from
the time she was with the Home for the
Friendless. He said that Miss Foster at
present had seven children of her own by
adoDtion: thev were children that had been
left with her and then had been deserted by
those leaving them. The doctor then read
from his memorandum and said that he
found that in one large sleeping room there
were eight single iron bedsteads, one double
iron bedstead and two - wooden bedsteads.
He found seven beds in other rooms all sup
plied with mattresses, and one good sized
lively bedbug. He said in the attic he
found plenty of bedding stowed away and
in the cellar several tons of coal. The doc
tor said that things were not in that order
that he had seen them on some
other occasions, as Miss Foster
had been overhauling and cleaning
and had not got set to rights. The doctor
said that Miss Foster had made some mis
takes in taking very young children and she
had done tbis out of pure sympathy for these
children. He further said that after his visit
to Miss Foster's he called on two responsible
ladies in Westville. who said that they had
visited Miss Foster's house at various times
and thev believed the children were well
cared for and very much regretted that so
much had been said absnt the place, as they
considered it entirely uncalled for. It is,
said the doctor, a real home for orphan chil
dren and for children of nnnatural parents,
and although the compensation re
ceived for their care was some
times very meagre, yet .they were
all well cared for. The doctor read letters
endorsing Miss Foster from Rev. Mr. San-
ford of New York and Rev. Dr. Vibbert of
Fair Haven. Continuing, the doctor said
that the public needed just such institutions
as that of Miss Foster's. He thought such
an attack as had been made on that lady was
entirely uncalled for.
H. Beecher was given permission to
erect a barbed wire fence in front of his
property adjoining the to wn farm, and simi
lar permission was granted Xjancrait .Bro
thers in Fair Haven East.
Bills were approved as follows: New farm,
$12; roads and bridges, $48; almshouse,
$40.50; general account, $2.50; temporary
loan, $30,375.
A New Haven Pastor In Ohio.
The Mansfield, Ohio, Herald of Monday
last says:
The auditorium of the Congregational
church was filled yesterday morning with
the many friends and admirers of Dr. J. E.
Twitchell, a favorite pastor of the church in
former years, who had accepted a warm in
vitation to occupy the pulpit. He preached
an interesting and tnougnuui discourse,
which stiuck home to hearts that are trou
bled and weary of life. His themf was
Peace." which he said could only be ob
tained through ti ast in God. The sermon
was embellished with apnropriate quotations
from the poets and hymn writers and with
pathetic illustrations. The selected hymns
sung by the choir were appropriate to the
thoughts contained in the sermon, which was
listened to with rapt interest and was con
soling and solemnizing in its effect. Two
new members were admitted into the church
on confession of faith. The solo by Mr.
Charles J. Harris and the duet by the Misses
Smith and Carrothers were well 'rendered.
In the.evening Dr. Twitchell conducted the
servioe, but the attendance was not so large
as in the morning. He returns to his charge
at New Haven, Conn., this week.
mANV imPROVEmENTS
n Runnell's Grand Opera House and
museum Handsome Changes made
During The Summer A New Scale of
Prices. "
Proprietor G. B. Bunnell, of Bunnell's
Grand Opera House and Museum, has made
some extensive and handsome improvements
in the place during the summer, which will
be highly appreciated by the patrons of the
place. The general appearance of the audi
torium has been greatly changed and many
minor improvements in all parts of the house
will add to the comfort and pleasure of the
patrons. All of the wood work excepting
the gallery fronts has been finished in ma
hogany. Two new boxes, having entrances
from the audience room, have been added.
The floor of the halls has been separated by
mahogany railing covered with plush into
the orchestra and parquet. The orchestra
will contain nine rows of plush upholstered
seats of the most improved pattern, with the
exit by side doors to the street. This will
avoid the crowds so often experienced by the
patrons of the house meeting in the general
passageway trom tbe bail.
The gallery fronts have been painted a
light drab tint, the medallion heads being
ornamented in different tones of bronze. The
seats on the floor and galleries have been re
painted and on eacb side or tbe proscenium
are large miirors in elaborate bronze frames.
The main entrance hall has been divided by
heavy mahogany doors to cut off drafts of
cold air and to shut out the noise from the
street and Curio hall.
The Curio hall has been almost entirely
changed, both in arrangement and appear
ance. A new stage tor ligbt plays bas been
put in and the whole interior richly painted
and ornamented. Several new attractions
will be added to this room and it will be de
signed also for a smoking room. The front
of the building has been painted an imita
