p'ositivclv declined to interfere in
the disputes cacii Ailh a icw
(o llieir adjustment. It is
theieforc certain the matter must be fought
out on the iloor of the convention. The
signal for ihc onslaught Avill be the nomi
nation of Alex Sullivan for the presidency,
and it is understood that it Aill be done in
order to gie the latter gentleman an oppor
tunity of rofiu ng, as a a indication ot his
character, and the opportunity Aill b util
ised for the promised e.posiues.
.Mr. John F. Pinnerty is favorably men
tioned as President Egan's successor, and
others an combatting his nomination in
view of his recent physical foice utterances.
Mr. Finnerly himself xiys he does not de

gaul to his .speech in Ogden Grove, he made
The following explanation today: "We
have no desire to foiee the hand of Parnell
or to drie the Irish people into Avar unpre

loader of the Irish people avIio is supposed
to speak for them shall commit himself, or
them, to accepting as a final settlement, bills
f rnlii'f imworthv of the dhrnitv of
Ireland's national demand.
We are perfectly Avilliug to see them ac
cept such bills as that of Gladstone's as a
settlement on account, but that must not be
accepted as closing the transaction. "We
sec no wisdom in it; it loAvers the tone of
the Irish cause: it low crs thespirit of the
Irish people. To ask them to subscribe to
a mere species of provincial life is an out
rage on their struggle of seven hundred
years for liberty. "V"e admit it may be

Sir. Davit t to be w hat is termed moderate
in tone, but for us who represent the na

Avorse than follv to conceal our sentiments.

sire not to place the Irish people in any

hwb. Judge Fitgerald is-regarded as con
servative and it is expected the nomination

Could not llesist.
Boston, Mass., Aug. 17. The fact that
AA'illiam Gray Jr., tieasurcr of the Atlantic
and Indian oi chard mills corporation, is a
defaulter to an enormous amount, created
great excitemens here. It h believed his
stealings will amount to over half a million
dollar-."". Gray Avas deposed from the treas
urership several days ago. The assets of
the two corporations are more than $4.
000.000, and it is not believed that the 2ol
vencv of either is impaired. The capital
of the Atlantic mills is $1,000,000 and its
assets $2,000,000. The capital of the In
dian Orchard mill is 000,000 and assets
are neatly three times that sum. Gray had
been treasurer of the former for ten j-ears,
and of the latter eight, and had occupied
the fonnost position hi business and social
circles. He lived magnificently, and Avas
regarded as very Avealthy.' He owns a line
cutter A-acht, and has be'en commodore of
the Do'rchester Yacht club for several years.
He is about fifty year old and ha a Avife
and two sons.
The managing directors of the Atlantic
mill are still engaged upon the books of the
corporation in i elation to the shortage -.f
AYm. Gray, Jr., late treasuier. but the
exact amount of his defalcation cannot be
learned with certainty; it is believed it Avill
not exceed 00,000. "
A ScreAV Loose.
Fokt "Wayne, Iud., Aug. 17. Quite a
ripple of excitement has been caused by
Judge Sinclair lining Dr. J. Y. Young, :
prominent physician 25 and sentencing
him to ten days in jail for contempt.
Young has antagonized the committee of
Tri-State Veterans :issociation regarding
the approaching re-uuion hen.1. Extensive
advertising has" been done by the commit
tee, and Young has distributed throughout
Northern Ohio and Indiana, dodgers claim
ing, as an official of tlie association, that
there will be no reunion, and that the prom
inent generals nnd others advertised to be
in attendance. a ould not come. The com
mittee, through the superior court, had a
restraining order issued, which Avas ignored
by Young, and this caused the line and sen
tence. The committee also circulated
posters advertising Young as a
forger, convict and fraitd, for Avhich Young
hascommeuccd suit for criminal libel.
"o One But Cowards.
Dexvkk, Col., Aug. 17. An Aspen
special to the News says: A double assas
sination Avas committed here today. John
Fenton had jumped the ranch ot liarry
BurroAA-s, and employed Jiicnaet Kyan,
who yesterday began cutting hay. Bur
roAVS warned "the man not to cut the hay.
Fenton laughed at Burrows, who went
iwav. Later KA-an ana renion were suui
in thn lwek. Before dving the men made a
statement claiming that Burrows and Doc
White did the killing. "White was arrested.
Burrows is still at large with the vigilantes
in pursuit, who will probably lynch him if
caught.

You Hot They'll Go, Too.
XnAV Yokk, Aug. 17. The fever is rap
idly spreading in this city as avcII as in the
county, and the Texas emigration commit
tee leceius dispatches from various places
announcing that regiments are to be organ
ized and kept in readiness to moA-e if Avar
be declared. The enthusiasts here hoav
have their headquai ters at Xo. 17. Center
street in the rear of SA'ckles' bar room.
On the wall, aboA-e the dek at which the
military dispatches are Arittcn, hang the
stars and stiipes. A torn flag that has seen
service in the field and Haunted on the
breee of icy Greenland, AA-as seen at a gath
ering of notable ev-military men in the
loom yesteiday, and the smoke fiom their
pipes and cigars filled the loom fiom lloor
to ceiling.
Colonels were plentiful as bees on a
honeycomb, and the majors and captains
sufficient to command half the army of
the states, crowded to the desk and volun
teered their service. The enthusiasm
and pairiotism ran as high as foam on beer
glasses Avhich a corpulent bar tender avas
bus' passing around. Col. LcAvis Pike, a
long-haired man from Texas, was in charge
of the preparations, and A-ith his corps of
colonels, majors and captains, discussed the
best mode of procedure. After Avasting a
pad or two of Western Union Telegraph
blanks they decided on the following mes
sage to Governor Ireland:
"In anticipation of trouble betAvecn Mex
ico and the. Unite 1 States. th tuidersignd
members of the committee appointed at a
meeting held by the A-ctcrans of the late
Avar and last war Avith Mexico, offer yon
our sympathies If. in your discretion,
you deem it necessary to accept our ser
vices thev are at A'our command."

Chicago. 111., Aug. 17. The two Ohio

12 1-2 cent nite on pro-ision, and packing
house pioducts fiom Chicago to Memphis,
The general Height agent ot another load,
a competing line, authorized a 15 cent late,

profit in the business, but failed to meet
the two loads, they preferiug to carry it at
a clear loss. One of the-e ha- a contract
Avith a big Chicago provision house, by the
terms of which it guarantees the lowest go
ing rates, and the "firm, by shrcAvdly play
ing one line against the other, has managed
to"gtt rates to the point first named, the
railroads evidently prefeiring tonnage to
profit. Thesame low Kites pievail out of
Kansas Oil y to Memphis and the southwe-t
railway association lines in order to profit
their traffic have been forced to make a 10
cent rate from Kansas City to St. Louis on
through business against twenty cent local.
It is suggested that a meeting of lines inter
ested be held with a view ofrcneAving the
old agreement which fixed the tariff at 22
cents"from Chicago, 2:1 cents from Kansas
City, and 10 cents from St, Louis, and
some con espondence has been had on the
subject. It came to nothing, however, as
officials haA-e lo-t faith in each other and
have no confidence in pledges not backed
by penalties.
He Stretched the Hope.
Cincinnati, O., Aug. 17. A special
from Huron Station, Lawrence county,
Indiana, on the Ohio and Mississippi rail

tramp resisted and stabbed Davis to death.
The neighborhood soon caught the tramp
and hung him to a tree. He has not been
identified.

Oliio Democracy.
Toledo, O., Aug. 7. The city is
crowded with delegates to the Democratic,
state convention. "The attendance is large
considering it is the oil year in Ohio poli
tics. Tonight the district delegates met to
select a nreident and members of the vari-
1 ous" committees of the convention. It has
! been decided the convention shall have but
one session, beginning at 10;00 a. m. The
indications arelhat its deliberations will be
j harmonious and the entire work completed
early in the afternoon. There are several
! candidates for secretary of the state, but in
dications point to the nomination of Boston
G. Young, of Clarion, though John Mc
Bec, of MaaMllon, the present representa
tive of the Knights of Labor, will give him
. a close run.
Judge Follett will have no opposition for
I rcnomlnntion for supreme judge, nor Cruik-
shank, the present incumbent, tor clerk of
the supreme court. John P. Martin, the
present incumbent, K the only candidate
mentioned for the board of public works,
hence the only real competition is. for sec
retary of state and commissioner of public
schools, there being some half dozen aspir
ants for the latter place.
The convention will probably pronounce
stronslv for a revenue tariff.

THE LAST DAY
Of the Anarchist Trial but One The
.Jury Calls for a Hast.
Chicago, Aug. 17. This is the fifth day
of the arguments in the anarchists tnal.and
Captain Black, the leading counsel for the
defense, began the closing plea for the
misoners. Captain Black began his argu
ment soon after the jury was seated, by
saying:
May it please your honor, and gentle
men of the jury: On the morning of May
oth, the people of Chicago Avere startled at
Avhat happened at Ilaymaiket. Fear is the
mother of cruelty, and perhaps that Avill
account in some "measure lor the bitterness
Awth which the state prosecuted "the ease.
The serious question which confronts
us, however, is to Avhat extent you gentle
men in your deliberations may be
influenced "by passion or prejudice.
On the the night of May 4th a dynamite
bomb Avas thrown on the Haymarkct in
this city and exploded. It caused a ide
spread haA'oc anil loss of human life. The
bare moral icsponsibility for the dynamite
doeaiiot iest -with the socialists. This e
nlosive was sriven to the Avorld by science.
We might a ell stand appalled at the terri ,

Captain Black reiterated that-dynamite o
far as the origin and manufacture of it is
concerned had no connection at ail Avith
the doctrines of socialism, and he laid doAvn
this to be a rule of law. The jury should
follow closel the cidence in their delib
erations a hen a man is charged with a crime
a in this case. The people must show how
the bomb Avas thrown, avIio did the
deed, and must show that thes, di
fendants were connected direct! A.itu
the guilt man. He then proceeded
to enlighten the jury that the state
mistook" its functions altogether. Tin
speaker said that the counsel forthe state
were Avrong when one of them advised the
jury that upon them it Avas dcicudcnt to
maintain laAV and government because the
defendants a ere against the state. They
were revolutionists, it Avas said, but that
Avas not the truth. There could be no rev
olution except when the heart of the peo
ple rise to rcdrcs some great Avrong.
Continuing, the counsel ga'.'e a -eientific
account of dynamite and experiments Avith
it as an agency of modern warfare, and
then declared "that dynamite Avas in the
world to stay and that these defendants
wen- in no Aav reswnsible for it. But the

"WAsniXGTOX, D. C, Aug. 17. The j
secretary of the interior drew warrants on
the treasury department for $7,7."52.4o0 on ,
account of quarterly payment of pensions, ,
and some time ago Acting Secretary Fair- j
child instructed Ir. Krites, chief of the!
division of aumdoned property, to canyl
into effect the nrovbious ot the act Ol con
gress authorizing the secretary of thc.trea-; forwanledto the
im- tn (l.lit-rr tn'tlio rirhtful oAA'ners certain i ommendation to
articles of jewelry, etc., captured by the
United States army during the civil Avar,
and denosited in the trcaMirv dep.trtment.
3Ir. Krites has accordingly prepared rules j
and regulations aaIucIi wilt govern tlie res
toration of all such article, and lia jut
concluded an examination of the deposits.
Thev are contained in iavo large boxes
and "consist of siher Avare, jewelry, por
traits, etc. One of the boxes contained
nearly 000 watches, gold, silver and bra,
and a number of jack knive iocket books,
letters, etc. These were mostly taken from
prisoners of war a1io died in hospitals
around Vashington, Caie Lookout and
Elmiraand AAere deposited in the treasury
by General Eetchum. Some1 of them,
him ever, belong to union soldiers who dienl
during the Avar near the places designated. !
The other box coutaiued a Jot of articles
captured bv General I lerman's troops m
Camden, South Carolina, in the early part
nf iM5."i Tlnv (insist of family nlate.
jewelry, etc, AAhich had K-en deposited in
a bank at Camden hy Jlcliae ana outer
we'althy re.-idents of " thai section. "When
the union army approached the town an ef
fort aa as made to transfer the articles to
a place of safety, but it
did not succeed as tlie troops came ujon
the scene Avhile the transfer av;l-. being
made. Manv of the principal articles be
longing to M"r. Melioc Avere restoreil to him
by a .special act of congress in lbSO. An
inventory lias leen made and it is thought
the articles can only lie identified by their
owners. They Avifl be restored upon appli
eation accompanied by s:tisfrctory evi
deuce of ownership. The two boxes refer
red to contain all property of the character
described hoav in the United States treas
ury except possibly the presentation swords
belonging to Gen.Twiggs and captured b
Gen. Butler in New Orleans-. It is an un
settled question as yet aa hether these sAords
can be lCstored under the provisions of the
act referred to above. All the other articles
mentioned Ahich have not been re
storeil by April next Avill be adver
tised and such as shall still
remain in the treasurer for one year from
that time Aill be sold at public auction.
It is expeeted that the formal exchange
of the copies of the extradition ticaty lc
twecn the United States and Japan Avill be
soon announced from Tokio and that its
promulgation by the two governments w ill
take place immediately thereafter. The
Japanese authorities are quiie entliusT.i&tic
over the consummation of this treaty but
not so mui h on account of its proNiotis
Avhith are similar in general terms to tho-e
of the existing treaty Jietween the United
States and Great Britain, :is becausr of the
fact that it constitutes a step in the progress
of that nation tow ard a position of equality
