Marriage Grants to Royal Scions.
FeclAl to the Indianapolis Journal.
London, July 20. The Cabinet devoted
the whole of to-day's session to the consid
eration of the report of the select commit
tee on roval grants. The whole subject
with which tho committee has to deal:
Mr. Smith, First Lord of the Treasury, to en-.
J ii v- J 41 ' u 1 1 V tilltilll til U U1U11UVO Ul
gmeer tnrougli tne House, and he Unas his
chief difficulty is to formulate a proposal
acceptable to Mr. Gladstone and his fol
lowers. Mr. Gladstone himself man
ifests no disposition to be captious,
but it is extremely doubtful if the leader
of the opposition will be able to rally to
.his support all the various types of po
litical belief of which the Liberal party
is made up, even if he lend his adherance
to the most moderate proposals the govern
ment can be expected
radical wine of the Li
to make. That the
beral party will stand
out, no matter wnat j
- T . - . - X.I
r. Gladstone decides.
is very certain, for their opposition to any
lurtner grants to royalty out of the publio
treasury amounts to a crazes but the gov
ernment relies on Mr. Gladstone's strength
with the country to reconcile tho tax-payers
of his party to their proposals.
The position of Mr. Gladstone in this
matter is rather unique. Though the
leader of the opposition to the government,
he stands between the government and its
detractors; though the idol of tho very
classes who take every opportunity to
show their dislike for the Queen, he stands
up boldly in defense of her privileges and
prerogatives. . He argues that to refuse the
moderate demands which the Queen now
makes for her grandchildren would be a
dishonorable repudation of the solemn
compact entered into between the royal
family and Parliament. Ho points out
that the present allowance to members
the royal family amounts to only 170.000 a
year, while in the time of George HI the
aggregate reached into the millions. Ho is
willing that an understanding shall be had
that the sums now asked for Prince Albert
Victor and Princess Louise shall be the
last grants made for these purposes, but he
is nuwilling to insist that this proviso
ehall be incorporated in terms in the act
making the grant. There can bo no better
indication of tho effect upon the publio
mind of the proposal to lurther pension
the scions of royalty than that furnished
by yesterday' election in Marylebone,
where the phenomenal cutting down of the
old-time Conservative majority is attributed
altogether to the agitation of the question
of the grants.
The preparations for the popular demon'
etratiou in Hyde Park, to-morrow, to pro
test against tho grants are on an enormous
scale; aud it is expected that the working
population of London will turn out en
masse to add their voice to the howl of con
demnation which is heard from other parts
of the kingdom. Mr. William Kandall
Creraer. the Gladstonian member for Shore
ditcb, will preside.
Tho Tories by no means distress them
selves over the obvious differences which
the grant proposals have developed in the
Liberal ranks, and there is reason to believe
that when the question comes up in the
House on Monday ample scope will uo given
the opposition to widen the breach already
existing in their ranks by a judicious en
couragement of the expression of the con
tradictory views on the subject entertained
within the party. The Conservative man
agers hopo that the approval of the gov
ernment proposals by Gladstone. Money,
and the other milder Liberals, who favor
moderate concessions to the Queen's wishes
will result in a lasting rupture in tho Lib
eral party.
An Ovation to rarnelL
- Edinburgh, July 20. The freedom of the
city was conferred upon Mr. Parneli to
day. In reply to the address accompany
ing the presentation Mr. Parneli said that
the Irish people would accept the tributo
as another proof of the near triumph of
their legitimate aspirations for freedom.'
Keferringto the special commission ap
pointed to investigate the Times charges
against tho Parnellites, Mr. Parneli said
that if he had known it would block any
inquiry into the Piggott conspiracy he
would never have entered the court.
The presentation took place in the Corn
Exchange, and it was packed to the doors,
while hundreds were unable to gain admit
tance. The Earl of Aberdeen was in the
chair. Mr. Parneli was given an enthusias
tic reception, the immense audience rising
find cheering for several minutes. Deputa
tions fromjall the Liberal societies in Scot
land presented addresses. Mr. Gladstone in a
letter to the Earl of Aberdeen wrote: "The
time has not yet arrived for detailing the
memorable experience of Mr. Parneli dur
ing the last two yearn. I believe that ex-
5erieucetobo unparalleled in the history of
Iritish statesmen in Parliament lor tho
past two centuries. I consider the Parnell
Jtes to bo in the best tense Conservatives.
They have been a restorative force of great
value to the peace of Ireland and tho honor
of England, while the tyranny of the gov
ernment has deepened the aversion of Ire
land." Mr. Parnell's reception was ahead of any
thing ever known in the city, excepting
only the periodical ovations to Mr. Glad
stone. Over seventy thousand people lined
the route over which Mr. Parneli and his
party drove from tho station to tho hotel.
Iho great Irish leader was himself im
pressed by the enthusiasm of tho people,
who pressed forward at every opportunity
to touch his hand, at the same time utter
ing an earnest "God bless you." ' Notwith
standing the opposition expressed when
the proposal was tirst made, not a word is
heard to-day in Edinburgh disapproving of
the presentation of the freedom of the city
to the Irish leader. In view of Mr. Par
nell's unfinished evidence before the Par
neli commission it is expected that he will
carefully refrain from making a political
speech while in Edinburgh.
Turkish Integrity to I Jo Maintained
Copy right 1M9. by the New York Associated Press. J
Bkklin, July 20. The long-pending nego
tiations with the Porto, aiming at tho ad
hesion of Turkey to the triple alliance,
have linallv resulted in an entente, under
which the breibund guarantees to main
tain the iqteirrity of Turkish territory in
accordance with the treaty of Berlin. The
question concerning Crete is reserved.
Prince Bismarck promises to influence
Greeco not to interfere, provided further
autonomy is conceded' the Cretans. It is
stipulated that Turkish troops shall co-op-crate
with Austria, Servia and Bulgaria in
tho event of a war with Russia. The Sul
tan received Count Kadowitz, the German
embassador, on Wednesday, and arranged
for tho reception of Emperor William,
whose visit to Constantinople depended
upon the Porte's conclusion of an entente.
' The negotiations were accelerated by
the gravity of the situation in Servia. A
Cabinet council held in Vienna, on Thurs
day, debated whether the time had come
for military intervention by Austria. Tho
War Minister reported tho arming of the
Servian reserves en masse, and tho distri
bution of 250,000 rifles and abundant muni
tions furnished by Kussia and Franco, they
debiting the Servian treasury under easy
conditions of defcred payments. Russian
officers, he said, were engaged in inspect
ing fortresses, barracks and depots in
Servia. The Ministeradvocated immediate
action. Everything was ready to march
two army corps into Servia. The
council declined to wait until Count
Kalnoky influenced tho reappearance of
King Milan in Belgrade. Tho partisans of
King Milan are eager for a civil war to
crush the Kussians. If it occurs. King Mi
lan will invoke Austrian assistance, and
thus give Kalnoky ground to interfere.
the Kreuz Zeitung, referring to tne ar
rangement with tho Porte for Turkish
adhesion to the triple alliance, says: "The
Sultan mnst above all be itilly. convinced
that tho league will not violate the integ
rity of Turkey, but recognize her as a state
entirely independent within her own
borderp.
The Pesther Lloyd doubts the value of
Turkey's adherence, but predicts that when
tho decisive hour strikes, tho Porte, finding
thequestion of its very existence involved,
will co-operate with the powers desiriug to
preserve Turkey.
The Virginia Compromise.
Special to tho Indianapolis Journal.
"Washington. July 20. Colonel Dudley,
one of the members of tho executive com
mittee of the Republican national commit
tee, in conversation with your correspond
ent this afternoon, said: "I consider tho
settlement of the dispute between the Ma
hone and anti-Mahono factions in Virginia
Republican politics as ono of the most im
portant works which has been done in many
years. It relieves the Virginia situation of
one of the very worst of its features, and
promises tobe followed by a more harmon
ious understanding than has existed in the
Old Dominion since the Republican party
got ft real foothold there."
"Do you think. Colonel inquired your
correspondent, "tbat the chances for. Re
publican success are now goodf"
"1 most assuredly do. I consider that
now, for tho first time, Virginia Republic
ans have an excellent prospect of success,
and that the differences of opinion which
have heretofore injured the chances of Re
publican success in that State have been
wiped out."
Colonel Dudley's idea in this respect is
; heartily seconded, not only by General Ma
'hone, but by tho other Republican leaders
in the Old Dominion. General Brady, who
was to-day appointed one of the internal
revenue collectors for the State, was enj
.thusiastic in his remaks concerning tho Re
pnblican prospects there. General Mahono
said with a smile. "The hatchet has been
buried so deep that its handle is sticking
out in China, and the Republican party of
Virginia to-day is in a position to win."
The work is indeed a most stupendous
one, and is by far the most important polit
ical movement which has been made for
many years. Virginia has more Republic
ans than Democrats within her borders to
day, but the trouble has been for several
years that the factions have succeeded in
lighting one another to such an extent that
success was impossible. By the compro
mise which was erlected the other day by
means of Quay, Dudley and others. Re
publican prospects aro enhanced, and Dem
ocrats from the Old Dominion do not hesi
tate to say that their 'chances are blacker
than they have been before since the organ
ization of the Readjuster party, which was
the birthday of the new Republican party
in Virginia.
Express Company Sued for 850,000 Damages.
Chicago, July 20. A somewhat peculiar
damage suit was instituted in the Circnit
Court to-day. The plaintiff is Herman B.
Chapman, and tho defendants are the
United States Express Company, Thomas
C. Piatt. George R. Blanchard, C. K. Cros
by, Daniel P. Eells and C. S. llryce, as in
dividuals and as directors of the express
company, and Joseph Shephard, Georgo
A. DcLong, Alfred M. Jones and
Frederick Marsh. The suit is for
trespass, and the damages are laid
at 650,000. In 1ST8 Chapman was an
employe of tho express corapaify at La Salle,
111., aud was charged with tho delivery of
a $14,000 express package which nover
reached its destination. Chapman claimed
that he was assaulted and robbed of the
Eackage, but the company insisted that
o had stolen it. Years of litigation fol
lowed. Chapman was acquitted on the
chargo of theft, but subsequently con
victed of perjury, and sent to the peniten
tiary for seven years. Meanwhile the com
pany began a civil suit against the prison
er, and in 18S0 obtained a verdict in the
United States Court for the 14,000 and
costs. A special writ of capias ad satis
faciendum was sued out. Armed with
this the marshal arrested Chapman on his
release from Joliet in 1884, and he was
brought to Chicago and lodged in the
debtors' department of the jail.
The express company determined to make
an example of Chapman, and paid his board
weekly in jail for three years. They would
doubtless nave kept him incarcerated for
life, but in 18S7 the Legislature of Illinois
passed a law providing that persons held
in custody on capias ad satisfaciendum
should not be held longer than six months
after turning overall their property not
exempt to tne creditor. This law went
into effect July 1, 1S67, and that very day
Chapman was released. In the meantime.
Chapman's attorney had appealed to the
tho United States Supremo Court, and yes
terday that body handed down a decision
setting aside tho judgment of the lower
court, upon which tho capias had been is
sued. Chapman naturally claims that the
three years spent in the county jail were
years of false imprisonment, and expects to
recover damages to the extent of $50,000.
The suit creates a decided sensation in le
gal circles.
A Fireman Heroism-Rewarded.
No. 3 engine-house, on Virginia avenue,
was the scene last night of a pleasant sur
prise, which had been prepared by tho tire
meil and citizens, for At Kight. Ho res
cued two boys from drowning on June rt,
when Julius Merssen, jr., lost his life m
White river, near May wood, and his friends
did not wish to have his heroism go unre
warded. They had a gold medal made,
with the inscription: "Al Kight. Presented
for the heroic act of saving two boys from
drowning." Over fifty persons were
among tho donors, and last night
was fixed upon as the time for the presen
tation. Kight had been playing checkers
with the boys at the engine-uouse early in
the evening, and at 9 o'clock ho was sur
rounded by a score or more, who had
sauntered in from time to time. Jasper
Phinue3 of D. P. Erwin fc Co., in a very
fitting speech, infoimed Mr. Kight that his
friends had thought his noble act worthy
of some notice other than verbal praise, and
that tho medal was otfered, not ibr its in
trinsic value, but. as a token of their es
teem. Mr. Knight, in reply, said that he re
garded what he had dono not as heroism,
but as duty; but as long as life would last
he would never forget the friendship that
had prompted the gift.
Monslgnor Corcoran' Funeral
Special to tho Indlanai-oll Journal.
Philadelphia. July 20. The funeral of
the late Monslgnor Corcoran took place to
day. t The services over the remains were
held in tho Cathedral, and were the most
solemn in the ritual of the Catholic Church.
The sacred editico was packed at an early
hour. Sisters of the various religious or
ders occupied tho front pews. The services
began shortly after 0 o'clock. A proces
sion of priests and acolytes, headed
by Bishop O'Hara, of Scranton.

sanctuary and took np positions. Follow
ing Bishop O'Hara were Itfohopt Me
(j'overu, ofHarriaburg, mid Xm-thmp, of
North Carolina, and Ilia-hup Quiuey, of
Charleston. Immediately upon tho priests
and acolytes takiif: their seats the scred
office of .the dead was chanted, and at the
conclusion a solemn hieh mass was begun.
Its celebrant was Archbishop liyan, and
tho assistant priest was tho Very Rev.
Nicholas Cantwell. At its conclusion Arch
bishop Rvan and his attendants withdrew.
Bishop Oiara then ascended the pulpit
and delivered a brief sermon, reviewing the
life and services of the dead prelate.
When Bishop O'Hara had concluded.
Cardinal Gibbons entered the sanctuary
wearing the red cap and cape. He was at
tended by several priests and acolytes. As
cending the archiepiscopal throne, he di
vested himself of his cap and cape, reveal
ing tho tightly-ntting red skull-cap. Upon
being invested with suitable vestments the
Cardidal approached the foot of the casket,
while a cross-bearer stood at the head.
Behind the Cardinal stood the assistant
priests. Tho Cardinal roverently knelt,
and with bowed head and clasped hands
spent a few minutes in prayer. Upon aris
ing he pronounced absolution of the body,
and withdrew. Then the priests of the
diocese aud neighboring dioceses passed
around tho catafalque. After allhad viewed
the remains the casket was closed, and re
moved to the vault beneath the altar. .
The Recent Frie-Flgle.
New York, Jnly 20. The Evening News,
in an extra edition, gives to the public this:
A letter received from a well-known news
paper man puts a new aspect on the result
of the battle between Sullivan and Kil
rain. The writer says: "From informa
tion I have received and from investiga
tions I have made, I am confident
that Kilrain was 'dosed prior to his
battle with John L. Sullivan, and later I
will have the names of tho parties who
concocted the plot, The 'business' was
done at Richmond on Sunday, on the evo
of tho light. Kilrain was given Indian
hemp, mixed with jelly, and the effects of
the drug did their work steadily with the
assistance of the torrid sun. One of the
parties who put up the ring with Denny A.
Butler has the secret, and it is more than
probable he will expose the plot"
A News reporter called on Frank Steven
son in regard to the above. Stevenson
said: "Kilrain informed me after the light
that he had a strango feeling. Whether
he was drugged or not I do not know."
Johnston, of the Police Gazette, said:
"Flynn, who put up the ring, said to me:
Richard K. Fox would give $.1,000 if he
know what I learned at Richbnrg.' Flynn
knew of some plot, but ho refused to dis
close it, though he promised to do so somo
time." Flynn was at Richburg the night
before the fight, and Johnston says Flynn
hunted him up to make the above remark.
instead or "seeing tne town," to-night,
John L. Sullivan remained in his room at
tho Vandcrbilt Hotel. Billy Muldoon was
summoned from Long Branch to accompa
ny bullivan to Boston, but tho trip was
postponed until Monday.
An eveninir paper states that Charlev
Mitchell and Pony Moore sailed for Liver
pool, on the Etruria, this morning. Just
before tho steamer sailed Mitchell said: "I
am glad to get out of this blasted country,
and.you can bet I'll never return."
Needs of the White House
Washington, July 20. The Star this
afternoon prints' an interview with Mrs.
Harrison which Quotes her as eaviug that
tho insufficiency of room m the White
House has become a matter of very serious
inconvenience. Mrs. Harrison savs that
although the household of the President is
not the largest ever domiciled in the official
home of tne chief magistrate, tne encroach
ments of official requirements of late years
upon the apartments used for family pur
poses has reached a point whero relief has
oecome absolutely necessary, r-ven tne li
brary has been take up for office business,
and the Cabinet-room now serves the
double purpose of a public ante-room for
fcenatorsandothersadinitted without cards,
as well as the place for the meeting
of the President and his advisers. In speak
ing of this subject, Mrs. Harrison contin
ued: "Wo are here for four years. I do
not look beyond that, as many things may
occur in that time, but I am very anxious
to see the family of the President provided
for properly, and while I am here I hope to
bo able to get the present building put into
good condition. Very few people under
stand to what straits the President's family
has beep put at times for lack of accommo
dations. . Really, there are only live sleep
ing apartments, and there is no feeling of
privacy."
Mrs. Harrison says that tho idea of nnvk-
: i. : A iL. i i: A f : '

on the west side would not involve any loss
on account of removing the present con
servatories. Tho extension would enable
the President's family to have a private
home where the President's wife might eeo
ner irionas privately.
The President's Vacation.
Special to the Indianapolis JouraaL
Washington', July 20. Tho President
and Mrs. Harrison went to Deer Park this
afternoon, where thev will remain for
about two weeks. The President will
then return to W ashington.andafterspend
ing a few days here will join Secretary
Blaine at Bar Harbor, remaining there per
haps a fortnight. Mrs. Harrison has not
yet determined whether she will accom
pany tho President on his Northern
trip. When the President returns from Bar
Harbor to Washington, the latter part of
August, no will prepare lor another visit to
Deer Park, intending to remain there dur
ing the month of September. This is tho
President's vacation programme as he had
it manned out in his mind to-dav. and it is
probable that it will be carried out, al
though the length of the President's stay at
eacn place may be cnanged through per
sonal desire or the demands of public busi
ness. Secretary Hal ford accompanied the Presi
dent to Deer Park this afternoon. Somo
appointments may bo determined upon and
the announcements given out at Deer Park,
and such matters as have to be recorded at
tho executive mansion will be brought here
and attended to by Secretary llalford.
Secretary Windom did not go to Deer Park
to-day, but will probably get away next
.Monday or Tuesday lor a two weeks' vaca
tion there.
President and Mrs. Harrison arrived at
Deer Park a little after midnight, and wont
direct from tho station to their cottage.
The Socialist Congresses,
Special to tTie Inillanawlis Journal. '
Paris, July 20. Both congresses of the
Socialists are in full blast. At the session
of the Marxist Congress to-day Herr BebeL
the German delegate, warned those present
that 6pies in the pay of the German govern
ment haunted the cafes and other resorts
where the German delegates were
wont to gather. At this Ilerr
Liebknecht suggested that the Ger
man delegates take every precaution
to prevent the mandates given them bv tho
societies they represent from falling into
tne nanas ot tncir enemies, and requested
that all delegates hand nn their mandates
that they might be destroyed to prevent
the authorities at their home from hunt
ing down the victims of their rage and
malice. This request was quito generally
heeded, and many papers were handed up
to be destroyed. Tne police authorities of
Pans have granted pt mission to the
Marxists to go to tho cemeterv of Pere la
Chaise to-morrow en masse to decorate the
craves of the Communists buried there.
At the meeting to-day of the other sec
tion of the Socialist party, the Possibilists.
whoso convention is Known as the Interna
tional Labor Congress, Mr. Hyudman, the
English delegate, urged the union of the
Socialists with the trades-unions in all
countries. Tho congress passed a resolu-
tion stating that, in its judgment, tho dele
gates from each nation were the best
judges of the wisdom of their own political
and social tactics. The Municipal Council
of Paris, last evening, gave a grand ban
quet to the delegates of both tho Socialist
congresses.

Mrs. rillow and Col. King's Troubles.
Memphis. Term.. Julv 20. Some time azo Col.
II. Clay Kinc filed a bill in the Chaucery Court
against Mrs. Mary E. Pillow, widow of the well-
Jtnown confederate general, in wnicn lie alleged
that Mrs. Pillow had exercised an undue influ
ence over him, and had induced him to deed a
large amount of property to her, but -that he did
so with tho expressed understanding between
them that she would not present tho deeds for
registration until after his death, which obliga
tion and agreement pho had violated. The obiect
ot his hill was to get a decree vesting the title to
the property again In himself. Within the
iast week that lady has brought a aamajre suit
against him la the Circuit Court for $100,000.
Supplemental to this she filed, through her at
torneys, in the Chancery Court, this morninjr, her
answer ana cross-bill to the bill tiled by Colonel
King. The bill is a very sensational one. and
contains wholesale denials of all of Colonel
King's allegations, and severe strictures upon
him. Among other things she charges that com
plainant, upon a hollow pretense, Induced her
housemaid, during her absence, to get him the
deeds in question, and that, once In bis posses
sion, he threw them in the tire, where they were
consumed, and that "every allegation of Lis bill
putting any other construction upon this trans
aciiou is an incenious falsehood."
Cannot Get Justice in South Carolina
Pittsburg, Julv 20. -Tn the Flemon extradi
tion cafe Judjfe Kwin to-day pranted a further
delay until Tuesday next, before his order for
removal is made. Flemoii's counsel aked for
this concession on the j?round that they had
been unable to see any of the Supreme Court
jucticcs to bring the matter before them. This
case promises to become a question of national
Interest, inasmuch as Fleiuon's friends claim
that the murder in which he is said to be Impli
cated was a political affair, which occurred in
the latter part of the Cleveland -Blaine cam
palcn, and phould the accused bo taken to Edgo
tield county, South Carolina (the scene of the
trouDie), Tor trial, he could not secure justice. This
view of the matter has been presented to Con-
Eressnian Dalzell in so urgent a manner that he
as consented to write the Department of Justice
at Washingtom asking that the department recom
mend a change of venue in the case if the pris
oner be taken to South Carolina.

Miss Nellie Flavin, a Liverpool cirl. how

The Prlze-IUng in the Olden Time.
New York Sun.
An examination of the) classics, with spe
cial reference to tho modern prize-ring,
shows that the recent pessimistic philoso
phizing of the Potterite school about
Messrs. Kilrain and Sullivan, was as op
posed to facta as the Rinhop's recent incur
sion into old-time politics. Virgil, as he is
translated, thus describes in the .rEneid the
ring that once happened to be occupied by
an old hero named Entelius and a younger
boxer, Dares:
Both on the tiptoe stand at full extent.
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent;
Their heads from aiming Mows tuey bear afar,
ith clashing gauntlets then provoke the war.
The clashing gauntlet mentioned here is
the ccstus, that barbaric boxing-glove of
lead, leather and iron which no modern
sparrer would touch. But this was tho
picture of the young man after tho finish:
Ills mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood,
And broken teeth came rushing with Lis blood.
They were temble toughs in the old days.
Compared to them we n:sv almost think we
have reached the blivslut" stage of humane
perfection.

then hurried to a neat behind tbem, which

looking mother bearing a precious burden.
'Xo, madam." said the gentleman, step

How Long to Sleep.
II cine-Maker.
Up to the fifteenth year, most young peo
ple require ten hours, and till thetw)ntieth
year nine hours. After that age, everyone
iiudsout how much he or she requires,
though, as a general rule, at least six to
eight hours are necessary. Eight hours'
sleep will prevent more nervous derange
ments in women than any medicine can
cure. During growth there must be ample
sleep if the brain is to develop to its fullest
extent, and the more nervous, excitable, or
precocious a child is, the longer sleep
should it get if its intellectual prnjrreaa is
not to come to a pr.'-i...tn:' v itm! till, cr
