Fooling the Cadgers..A Cincinnati dis¬ patch says: The news comes from Washington that Madden &. Hobart, of this city, who have been there answering a charge of using crooked uarrels, have compromised by paying the gov¬ ernment 84,501). ' The investigation here ww «e.S? ^.r difficulties. It is known, however, ? !?« w w1 ®rru used 100 barrels with an over- »«! .». HP* stave and an overthlck stave oppo¬ site the bung stave. Tbe barrels were used over 5?.t.?ver .in transferring high wines from the distillery to the rectifying Tiouse. The high were Kau*ed hot at the distillery, and. in ?hfli ^aln by fooling the gauger with the thick staves, there was the fractional half gallon which the government doesn't count, aoad which the shrewd distillers took care should always be present.

Ti?e Planters are Jubilant over their prospects. Col.Kd. Richardson, the largest JSiVm1 »P. «nt?r ln the world. stated that if he could obtain force enough to pick the cotton lie will get. 25,000 bales off of 23,000 acres. Among the large cotton planters in Washington county are Gen. W. S. Hancock and Senator ** ade, and the latter spends the greater portion oi his congressional vacation on his plantation. The South American Commission..The South American commissioners are preparing their final report, which will be transmitted to Congress by the President along with the eleven special reports upon the different couutries which have been forwarded from time to time to the Secretary of State and referred to in The The comni!ssion officially visited nine different countries. Colombia, Nicaragua and Honduras were omitted because of revolutions: Bolivia because her ports were blockaded, and Paraguay and Brazil because of instructions sent by Secretary Bayard for tbe commission to return by July 1st last. The commission report that a great deal of interest was shown every- ^.rei,America in their work, ana e\en in Chili, where the government did not show much cordiality towards the United states, their citizens were hospitable, and the ?ant8 did everything in their power to iacilitate the commission'** work. To Reduce Expenses..The Treasury com¬ mission, of which Acting Secretary Fairchlld is chairman, appointed to investigate the differ¬ ent bureaus of the Treasury department, had a meeting on Saturday and heard tbe report of a special oommittee of clerks detailed to make a thorough examination of the office of the super¬ vising architect. The report will not be made public until the commission submit their con¬ clusions thereon to the Secretary. It is be¬ lieved that the commission will recommend several reductions In the clerical force and one or two radiiial changes in the present system of doing business.

' The Special Delivery Stamp on Mer¬ chandise..An inquiry has been made at the Post Office department as to whether the special stamp system which is to go into effect October .1st will apply to merchandise as well as to .iff*. !in«. whe}her packages having this stamp will be delivered. It is stated that the intent of the law is to provide for the prompt delivery of first-class matter only, but that merchandise not to exceed four pounds may be put up as first-class matter, and it would undoubtedly be specially delivered, but it would probably cost the sender more to send it by mail than bv especiaHy if the distance is short. Third and fourth-class mail matter can be sent long distances more cheaply by mail than by express, because the m-»il rates are the same all over the United States, while the express rates are regulated by the distance to be traveled . ? * An International Patent Question..a Pittsburg mechanic who, in response to the Secretary of the Navy's general request for plans for the new cruisers, sent to the Navy de¬ partment a plan of a new propeller he claimed tube the inveutor of, has written to the Slate department stating that the invention has been siolen by some Londonderry mechanic, and asks that the government assist him in assert¬ ing his right to the invention.

At the annual meeting of the United States Naval Institute, to be held at the Naval Ao- ademy, October 9, a paper by Lieut. J. W. Dan- enhower, U. S. N., (who aooompanled DeLong ln exploring the Arctic regions) on the subject of polar explorations, will be discussed. Lieut. r*°^°howor takes a firm stand against further Arcuc expeditions. In summing up his oonclu- subject he says: "After having SlwTft^/1 ArcUc expedition, and having devoted seven yean to the study of the sub- observations ofthe and the comparatively lnsuf- attending sacrifice of human life ana treasure, I unhesitatingly record myself tojurthqr.explorations of tbe een- w.,Ul our present resources, observatory stations Charles L GambrllL senior partner of the but A LOCKOUT. Labor Leader Powderly .« the Trouble. HK TO AUJ X«^1N° MOV* OF JAT OOVIJ> B TH* KSOLISH BONDHOLBIB8. The presence In this city, last Saturday, of Messrs. Powderly, Turner, Buchanan, Bailey ana Hays, the general executive board of the nignU of Labor, was construed to mean that something of considerable importance in con¬ nection with that order was on foot. A Stab reporter made diligent effbrts to find Mr. Pow¬ derly and his colleagues during the day, but they were absent from their hotel. They had rested from their labors and made a visit to Mount Vernon. In the evening, however, the reporter was fortunate enough to meet all five gentlemen together. Mr. Powderly. as 1 - reP1y to a question, stated that w a conference in this city be- r and a delegation of Knights of X^borfrom St. Louis was erroneous. He said H.?t»T?ef8.r8"xTur,,er» Buchanan, Bailey and Just returned from a trip to St. Louis, where they went lor the purpose of looking into the trouble which had arisen between the labor organization and the Wabash railroad. Mr. rowaerly was prevented by illness from accom¬ panying them. The lour members of the board came direct from St. Louis to Washington, and au ot the gentlemen were satisfied that they must have been mistaken for a delegation ot ine St. Louis knights. They could not account in any other way for the report that such a delegation was coming here as, they said, no such move was ever contemplated. Mr. Pow¬ derly, chairman of the board, Joined the other members in this city. Beyond some matters of interest only to the local order here, no busi¬ ness was transacted. GOING TO MEET THE WABASH MANAGERS FACE TO FACE. Mr. Powderly said to The Stab reporter: "We are going from here to New York where we hope to meet tne managers of the Wabash railroad. No, we have no engagement with them. They have ruu away from us so far, but we hope to catcu up with them, and mean to if it takes all summer. We want to talk to them man (to man and settle this trouble. It has been given out tiiat there is a strike on the w abash road. That is not true. Our men were locked out. They did not strike. They are ready and anxious to go back to work. No, sin u s not a strike. Tiiis whole trouble isacuu- niug moveol Jay Gould's to scare the English bondholders ot the road by making them be¬ lieve that a big strike is on baud and that their property is likely to be ruiued. With that fear before their eyes, Gould thinks they would sell out at low figures and he would gobble up the property. We ai'e desirous of settling the trouble and of getting our men back to work. \\ e want to meet the managers, and, if they are not pliant tools of Jay Gould we believe it cau be settled." TO 11KEAK UP THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR. .'General Manager Talmage," remarked Mr. Turner, grand secretary and treasurer of the Knights of Labor, "denied in a telegram to us tnat'he had ordered any lockout, but we have an otneial letter of bis in which ue says that he first intends to break up the Knights*of Labor, and that then he will begin on the Brotherhood oi Locomotive Engineers."' « VPowderly said that the board had only issued oue order, so lar, in connection with the \S abash road. lie explained that the reduction or .orce on that road had left it without men enough to do the work, and his board had issued an order forbidding the Knights of Labor on any of tiie other roads of the Gould system from cleaning or repairing rolling stock or handling freight of the Wabash line. "If," he added emphatically, "the Wabash managers insist upon disregarding that order, If they attempt, to force our men on the other roads to help the Wabash out, then a strike will be ordered, and it will be a big one. Why," he auued, "a locomotive ought to be thoroughly cleaned every three days to keep it in good and sale running order, but the Wabash has been running some of theirs eighteen days without cleaning. Some day there will be an explosion, and then it will be charged that the Knights of Labor are using dynamite." HR. POWDERLY NOT A CANDIDATE FOB STATE TREASURER OF PENNSYLVANIA. The reporter spoke to Mr. Powderly of the re¬ port that the democrats of Pennsylvania thought of nominating him for state treasurer, may say," he replied with earnestness, that I am not a candidate and would not ac¬ cept the nomination." The SlieroMcoplsur Convention. A PAPER REAI) BY PROF. TAYLOR BEFORE THE society in Cleveland. The annual meeting of the American Society of Microscopists, in Cleveland, during the past week, has been one of the most interesting in the history of the society. One paper that created much discussion was ottered by Prof. Thomas Taylor, of this city, the microscopist ol the agricultural bureau, on "Butter and Fats; or how to distinguish one fat from another by meansof the microscope." Prof. Taylor explained his methods of examining lard, beef fat, and butter, and described the appearance ol their pure and impure conditions under microscopic treatment. He said tlfe globular crystals of butter, when kept lor a month or more, seem to bud like a vegetable spore, and frequently every round crystal will show projecting from each a smaller crystal. The globular forms generally vary from fifteen ten-thousandths of an inch to tlieone hundredth of an inch in diameter These forms are never seen in pure beef or lard fats Care should be observed not to press the crys^ tals flat, especially the globular crystals, as the cross is not seen when severely pressed Butter crystals vary slightly from each other in size and in some other slight particulars, such as color. A committee of five was appointed to consider the facts prescribed In the oaner During the meeting Prol. Taylor also illustrated on the blackboard the fungi ol the pine needle by cluster cups.

The Right Rev. John J. Keane, bishop of the diocese of Richmond, recently wrote a letter to A. M. Keiley lu relation to what he terms the "shameful persecution" that gentlemen is suffering. The bishop says:."l allude to the treatment inflicted on you as an insult notonly to one of the most highly and deservedly esteemed Catholics of the diocese of Richmond and one of the most honored citf^ns of Vir¬ ginia, but through him to all his fellow Catho¬ lics and fellow citizens in this country and to the Holy Father himself. But in this Insult to you I can see no humiliation save to those who have offered it. It was an honor to be unwel¬ come to a government whose whole course has been maaked by injustice and irrellgion, and the government of Austria having by ita recent act made itself the abettor of the guilt and part¬ ner in the shame has thereby made Itself In¬ capable of humiliating you. While I have re¬ gretted the attacks made upou you by part of the dally press, still that need not concern us znucli, as nothing better was to be expected rrom such partisan and interested sources. I am confident that all Catholics whose opinion you would esteem honor you for the persecu¬ tion you have suffered for truth and Justice sake; Your position is, indeed, an embarrass¬ ing one, with a family to provide for and your business transferred to others; but surely it can¬ not be that our government, whose well-meant placed you in this embarrassment, will leave you In it or fall to provide that you be in no way loser by it."

ELOPED IN THE OLD A Teatanmme Tonif LMy Lm Home fcy Means of a Ladder.A mantle Wcddlag at the City Hall. Near Raccoon Ford, in Culpeper county, Va., there resides Mr. John Zsch. Holliday. A young man of 22, named Robert L. Hicks, formerly of Spottsylvanla oounty, Is engaged on his farm. Miss Lena Welch, a buxom girl of 18, quite handsome, with dark hair and eyes, Is em¬ ployed by Mrs. Holliday to help her. Miss Lena, whose parents reside about half a mile away, and Mr. Hicks became lovers after an acquaint¬ ance of but two months. They assumed this tender relation against the wishes of parents, who, as Miss Lena said, seemed to have an idea that girls should not have beans. So closely were they watched that they scarcely got an opportunity to see each other, not to speak of promenading and conversing as other loving couples do. While Miss Lena was locked up stairs last night, the hour ap¬ pointed for an attempt to escape from the re¬ strictions placed upon her into the haven of matrimony arrived. Looking out, like Juliet, of her window about 10 o'clock, she saw the end of a ladder placed against the eaves, and in a short time Mr. Hicks made his appearance on the ladder, and beckoned to lier. Hastily putti ug on a straw hat and taking her shoes In her hand, she walked out of her window upon the tin roof fearful each moment that the rattle would betray her. Fortune, however, favored her, and she soon reached the ground and Mr. Hicks' loving arms. She put on her shoes, and the two arm in arm walked over the muddy roads to Mitchell's station, a distance of six miles. They arrived there about 11:30 o'clock and took the train on the Virginia Midland road, arriving here about 8:30 this morning. The conductor oi the train directed them to a coach and the court house. At the court bouse they made their wishes known, and Mr. R J. Meigs, jr., the assistant clerk, issued a license. Friends were found who sent for Rev. M. A. Turner, of the M. E. Church. Some of the employes showed the groom into the room adjoinlug the old Circuit Court room. Aunt Caroline, the colored woman in charge of the ladies' watting room, took the brlde-expec- taut to a room where sue ai ranged her toilet, the most difficult part of which was cleaning from her shoes the mud of "old Virginy." Miss Louisa Dav's, who was on business at tbeCourt House, and heard of the proposed marriage, volunteered to act as bridesmaid, and Mr. Charles Pelham, a member ol the bar, volun¬ teered to take the part of groomsman. A young man presented the bride a handsome boquet. At 9:15 o'clock, Mr. Turner having taken his place in the Circuit Court ante-room, the bridal procession left the waiting room, and marched into the presence of the minister. The knot was tied, the bride received a kiss and congrat¬ ulations followed. While waiting for their marriage certificate the couple frankly told those present of the difficulties they hud sur¬ mounted. The young lady remarked that as she was the oldest of live sisters, there were enough left at home to help her parents. Saved by the "Evening Star.*' i SIIOT BY A FRIEND WHILE OUT GUNNING. Near Oakland, Md., last Wednesday, Lieuts. Chisholm and Jamison, of the Garrett Guards, were out bird hunting. They had but recently separated when Jamison raised a bird. He fired, and besides bringing the quail down lodged the largest portion oi his charge in the body of his friend Chisholm, who was concealed from view by the underbrush. The shot pierced Chlsliolm's clothing, but fortunately most of them lodged in a copy or The Evening Stak, which the lieutenant was carrying in the inside breast-pocket of his coat. The folded paper was literally filled with shot and pre¬ vented serious injury being done to Chisholm. One stray shot loogcu under one eye, indicting a painful wound, but his breast was saved by The Star. She Diwappointed Him. A MARRIAGE LICENSE WHICH WAS NOT ISSUED. There appeared at the court house this morn¬ ing a very pretty girl, accompanied by her brother-in-law. She inquired at the clerk's office If a marriage license had been issued in which her naifae Wtka inserted. Receiving a negative reply, she then said if a gentleman called to get a marriage license, and gave her name as the intended bride, to hand hini a note which she wrote and left for him. In a few minutes thereafter the gentleman appeared, and. Mr. Camp handed bun the note when his face grew very long, and he hustilv left. It appears that the lady is from New \ ork visitius friends in this city, and that the gentleman followed her ou here, expecting to marry her here. Male» of Real Estate. Mrs. Florida L. Enos has sold to Edwin M. McLeod, for $0,500, the residence at the corner of Laurel avenue and Brown street, Mount Pleasant. Hufvy A Dyer have sold for A. Richards and C. C.

The LeDroit Park Company..The LeDroit Park Improvement company will hold a meet¬ ing to-day for the purpose of settling up the affairs of the company and dissolving. The company was formed about teu years ago and Erected twenty houses on Spruce street. Owing to the depression in business and other causes, the company was never able to pay for the im¬ provements thus made. It has been practically defunct for the past five years and this formal dissolution is made necessary to comply with legal requirements. The bulk of the land lying within the limits ol the park is held by A. L. Barber & Co., aud during the present season a number of lots have been sold to investors, who are erecting bouses. Those interested in the park think that new life and activity will be imparted to property there and that prices will advance and new improvements will be made. A Short Pint..On Saturday last Soecial Officer McKay, of the Center market, made an inspection oi the measures used by country¬ men who sell outside the market. All the measures were stamped according to law, but one countryman named Rozier Cleveland, of Charles county, Md., had cornshucks in the bottom of a pint cup. In which he was measur¬ ing lima beans, thus cheating each customer out of nearly one-third of what he paid for. The officer arrested him, and he left $10 col¬ lateral for his appearance in the Police Court this morning. He failed to appear and his col¬ lateral was forfeited. Robberies Reported at Police Head¬ quarters..Samuel L. Davis, corner 10th and B streets northwest, reports that'his house was entered Saturday night, and robbed of a gold ring, etc.; value $11.80.

Rosecrans does not take any stock In the report that ex-Governor Tllden is at war with the administration. He does not believe that Mr. Tilden hfei sought to dictate appoint* ments, or that he wonld put himself in any such attitude. The general thinks that if Mr. Tilden were asked to suggest a lit man for some position he would probably do so, but that be would never, unsolicited, propose men tor appointment to office. The leading democrats it# Washington gen¬ erally discredit the story of Mr. Tilden's atti¬ tude toward the administration. As a rule they express the opinion that if Mr. Tilden should ask the appointment of a man to office he would be appointed. He Went. Washington Correspondence N. Y. Run. Mr. Montgomery, the new commissioner of patents, while engaged in "turning the rascals out," decapitated a messenger In his bureau who had been In office for several years without doing much of anything to earn his salary. Upon receiving his discharge he made a great pdoover It, and Insisted that the axe bad fallen on the wrong neck. He was a democrat, he sakl, and had always been a democrat, had voted the ticket straight at every election, and stood by his party even in the face of discharge by a republican administration. Mr. Mont¬ gomery looked him over and then called for the letters of recommendation upon which he was originally appointed. "You are a democrat, are you?" "Yes, sir," replied the man. "Ana always have been?" "Always." "Then you are discharged for falsehood and and tor obtaining an office under false pre¬ tence*. In this application for appointment tiled five years ago you state that yon are a re¬ publican, no one but republicans endorsed you, and every one of them commends you as a faithful aud useful member of that party. You can go." There are a good many department clerks turning up who have always been democrats, but this example has assisted to make such pretensions unpopular. The Man Some Doctors Were Looking For. From the Wellsboro Gazette. Charles 8. Kingsley, ol Mansfield, a veteran of the late war, returned to his home in that place a few days ago for the first time since he enlisted, having been for twenty years con¬ fined in an insane asylum at Washington. He was wounded twenty-three times in battle. He has the use of but one leg and one arm. He was shot once In the mouth, the ball coming out at the corner of the lelt eye. The wound he received in the head necessitated it being held together by three silver plates. It was soon alter this operation that he became Insane. A short time ago It was discovered that the cause of his insanity was one of the plates pressing on his brain. The defect was remedied, and he gradually recovered his reason, and came out ot a living death of twenty years. All that has transpired in that long Interval Is a blank to him, the war memories being to him as yester¬ day. His papers will entitle him to a pension of #73 a month and back peusion ot nearly $20,000. He found his family at Mansfield in destitute circumstances. Anti-German Demonstration In Madrid. A CROWD OF 40,000 PEOPLE TESTIFY THEIB DISPLEASCjtE AT BISMARCK'S ACTIOS. An anti-German demonstration was begun in Madrid yesterday. At 4 o'cloek 40,000 persons had assembled on the Prado with banners and other emblems. Speeches were made in Spanish and French, denouncing Bismarck's action in annexing the Carolines. The chiet sneaker was a Spanish colonel in full uniform. No insulting reference was made to Germany, but the rights of Spain were fully proclaimed. A procession marched through the chief streets, arousing great enthusiasm. Opposite the prime minister's palace cheers were raised tor the premier, but he did not appear, aud the cheer¬ ing changed to bowling and whistling. Several men scaled the balconies and planted a national flag amid a storm of enthusiastic cheers. All the clubs, including the military and aristo¬ cratic, displayed banners. The procession was headed by democratic leaders. It did not pass through the street upon whicli the German legation is situated. At a meeting of the Mili¬ tary club. General Salamanca presiding, It was unanimously agreed, amid Intense excitement, to expel the German honorary members. The Loudon NfmtdurU'* correspondent at Ber¬ lin says: In consequence of the furore in Spain Prince Bismarck has ordered the German min¬ isters at the different foreign courts to hold over the notes intimating Germany's oecupa- Hon of the Carolines. Prince Bismarck.Is surprised at the prevail¬ ing excitement in Spain over the Carolines af¬ fair. It Is thought that a compromise is proba¬ ble, as Bismarck, it is said, will prefer to aban¬ don his claim to permanently offending Spain. Hanlan Beats Lee Easily. TH* THREE-MILE SCULLING RACE SATURDAY. A NOVEL SWIMMING MATCH. Twenty-five thousand people witnessed the three-mile sculling race between Hanlan and Lee atRockaway Beach Saturday afternoon.

THE QUICKEST PASSAGE 1VER MADE FROM QUEKNSTOWN TO SANDY HOOK. The Etruria, of the Cunard line,which arrived at New York on Saturday early in the evening, made the fastest journey ever recorded across the Atlantic. Allowing for the difference of Queenstown and New York clocks, the time across was, from Queenstown to Sandy Hook, six days, five hours and forty-six minutes. Her passengers slept only six nights aboard of her. Instead of seven, aud her mails, which usually get to the newspaper offices on Sunday, reached them Saturday afternoon. The fastest previous passages were made by the Oregon of the same fine and were: Westward, six days ten hours ten minutes, just a year ago, and eastward, six days six hours forty-one minutes, In December, 1884. The Etruria's last trip eastward, reckon¬ ing to Fastnst only, was made in six days five hours thirty-five minutes. Her runs on the different days were: Liverpool to Queenstown, 240 miles; from leaving Queenstown to noon August 17, 424 miles: twenty-four hours to noon August 18,464 miles; twenty-four hours to noon August 10,450 miles; twenty-four hours to noon August 20, 405 miles; twenty-four hours to noon Augus: 21, 464 miles: twenty- four hours to noon August 22, 465 miles; from noon to 3:34 p. m. August 22, 71 miles. Total, 3,043 miles. Distance from Queenstown to Sandy Hook, 2,803 miles; actual time, 150 hours. Average per hour, nearly 19 miles. The average hourly run to certain days was over 19 miles. Representative Payson Resists Extor¬ tion in Yellowstone Park..Last Monday ex-Judge L. E. Payson, member of Congress from Illinois, accompanied by his wife and son and two lady friends, camped out for the night in the vicinity of the lower geyser of Fire-Hole Basin, in the Yellowstone National park. In the morning one of the assistant superinten¬ dents at the park visited the place where the party hsd camped, and in kicking over the em¬ bers, discovered one on which was a little fire smouldering. He immediately reported his discovery to a person who claims to be a Justice of the peace of Wyoming Territory of the name oTHall, whose previousi occuMtion was that of a wood-chopper. Hall immediatelyls- sued a warrant for the arrest of Payson. The to^tnonyshowed that Mr. Payson hador- dered the fire carefully extinguished, and that water M been poured upon the brands and then earth heaped upon them. Mr. Payson was ordered to pay a fine of *60 for the ember that was found and S12.80 costs. Mr. Papon re- ftued to pay, «Sappealed tottheUnite5States district court. Then Hall reduced the fine to $10 and the costs to *4, but Mr. Payson still re¬ fused to pay and threatened to brine the mat¬ ter beforetne Attorney General. Finally Hall said he would accept fl, but Mr. Payson re- fUsed to give up a oeni. The practiee has been for the constable acting as an inforaer to re¬ ceive one-half the fine in addition to the easts that are made. This is the first time it has been ¦none.tally eontested. Belll|«rfat Adalrfn of tkr Lllj. LIGHT ON THE ENCOUNTER OF THE EARL. AND THE bAoNET. A cablegram from London to the New York Herald says: Inasmuch aa the Lonsdale-CheU wjrnd quarrel still continues to be a frequent topic of conversation here, and as all sorts of strange and contradictory rumors are In circula¬ tion about It, I have taken the pains to ascertain the actual facts about the origin ot the dispute. I now cable the whole story, as related to me, merely premising that my informant guar¬ antees its absolute correctness. Sir George Chetwynd and Lord Lonsdale are both very old friends of Mrs. Langtry. Owing to some reeling of icaiousy on her aciMunt, there had been all through the past season a more or less concealed enmity between these gentlemen. Shortly before the row in the park Lord Lous- dale, while calling upon Mrs. Langtry at her house, happened to see on the mantelpiece a picture of herself painted on china, fie ad¬ mired it very much, and as he rose to take his leave he begged Mrs. Langtry to make a present of it to him. Mrs. Langtry replied that the plo- ture was not hers; that It belonged to Messrs. Downey, the photograghers, who had refused to sell It even to her. Thereupon Lord Lons¬ dale said:."Well, at all event*, you can lend It to lire. I would like to show it to some one." He was Anally allowed to take it away on con¬ dition ot returning It lu a few days. THE RAPE or THE PICTURE. Some time passed, however, and still Lord Lonsdale neglected to keep his promise and bring back the picture. On the day l*?fore the final outbreak ot hostilities Mrs. Langtrv was riding In the nark with Sir George Chetwvud on one side or her and Lord Lmsdale ami Mr. Alfredde Rothschild on the other. Mrs. lang¬ try asked Lord Lonsdale when he was going to give back her picture. "Oh!" he replied, "1 am going to buy It from Downey." Sir George Chetwynd then chimed in, saying that Lord Lonsdale ought to return the picture, and adding as he turned toward him, "It you don't I will make you." High words then followed from both sides. THE BATTLE. On the same evening Lord Lonsdale wrote to Sir George Chetwynd requesting an apology, and threatening chastisement In case this was rrtused. Sir George, however, did not see tit to send any apology, and on the lollowing day. wisely or unwisely.Lord Lonsd:ile pnxwded to the park to nut his threat into execution. He began by naunting in Sir George t'beb- wynd's face the receipt from Downey, whom he had finally persuaded to sell htm the picture which had been the bone of the whole conten¬ tion. He then committed the assault as it was described at the time. It is not true that the Prince of Wales had a hand in the settlement of the unfortunate affair, which was finally ar¬ ranged by the good odices of Lord Calthorpe and Lord Huntley. Bound to See Her Husband. THE RUSK MRS. HIX ADOPTED TO GET INTO A RICHMOND JAIL. A sensation was caused iu police circles In Richmond, Virginia, Saturday by the discovery that one of the prisoners iu the city Jail who was attired as a man was a woman. The name of the prisoner is Henrietta Hix. Her husband deserted her in Boston a tew months ago. Learning that he had come to Richmond, the wife donned male attire and shipped on t>oard of a vessel at Boston as a cook about two weeks ago. Upon reaching Richmond Mrs. Hix dis¬ covered that her husband had been arrested and committed to jail for robbery> Determined to gain access to him and share his prison cell, the woman stole a small amount of monev. She was arrested, and without arousing the suspicions of the authorities as to her *ex, she was placed In the same cell with Hix. The ruse was discovered Saturday, and the husband and wife were placed in separate cells. Hix con¬ firms the woman s story, and says they were married in Boston about two years ago. It Is probable that Mrs. Hix will be pardoned by the governor. She is young and good looking. Payment of Parnelllte Member*. IRISH CONSTITUENCIES INSISTING THEY SHALL BE PAID FROM A GENERAL FUND. A dispatch from London to the Philadelphia Pren, says there are symptoms of revolt In some of the Irish counties over the payment of the Irish members of the next parliament. Mr. Parnell insists that each constituency shall be compelled to pay its own member a salary upou which he can manage to live in London. The electors generally recognize the justice of pay¬ ing the member so as to secure the services of able men who could not otherwise afford to de¬ vote themselves to politics, but some of the poorer constituencies object to having the tax for the support of their members direct lv as¬ sessed upou them. They want a general fund raised, to which they, with others In Ireland and elsewhere, shall contribute according to their means, and from which all the members shall be paid alike. It is probable that some compromise will be eflected by which the con¬ stituencies will be required to pay what they can, and that the deficiencies will afterward bie made up and the salaries equal izea by drafts upon the general fund. Maxwell'* Line of Defense. The attorney lor Maxwell, who killed Preller, has outlined his defense. He says that he will make the state first prove that Preller is dead. Some persons in St. Louis are of the belief that Preller is not dead, and that the hodv found in the trunk Is that of Hugh Motham Brooks. This would make Maxwell out the young min¬ ister who fled from England with Brooks, and who has not been accounted lor. What leads to the belief that the body in the trunk is that of Brooks is that the underclothiug on the corpse was marked "H. M. B." Maxwell, by the advice of his attorney, will have nothing mgre to say about his case. ANOTHER IDENTIFICATION OF MAXWELL. W. A. Shaw, a stenographer, employed in the office ol Wayne MacVeagh, in Philadelphia, has, through the descripi ions and newspaper cuts of Maxwell, the alleged murderer of Preller, at St. Louis, identified the accused as Hugh Brooks, a former acquaintance of his at Hyde, Leicester, England. Mr. Shaw last saw Brooks in August. 1884, when on a visit to his parents, who reside near Hyde. Brooks then had an office as solicitor in Hyde, but did not have much practice, and amused himseli with various scientific pursuits. He was much de¬ voted to magic lanterns, and apparently was accustomed to make chemical exj»eriinents. He had many noticeable eccentricities, and in personal appearance was strange looking. HiB eyes would wander, and he seemed engaged in study. His father had been summering at the Isle of Wight, aud during his absence the son spent money extravagantly, aud to cover his expenditures forged his father's name to a note for £300. On accouutof this misdeed he lett Hyde and went to Dublin,afterward drilling to America. ».* Killed in a Quarrel About a Dog..Geo. Holverslall, an elderly farmer, living five miles from Xenia, O., shot and killed Joseph Wolf, a young neighbor, last Friday evening. Wolfs dog had chased Holverstall's turkevs. Holver- stall Insisted on killing the dog^ and Wolf tried to prevent him. Finally, Holvcrstall fired at Wolf, and he died iu ten minutes. Wolf had been married but two weeks. Hol- veretall surrendered himself. *.* Mississippi Democrats Complete Their Ticket..After a continuous session of twenty hours the democratic state convention at Jack¬ son, Miss., on Saturday morning, took a recess until 11 a. m. Upon assembling, J. R. Pres¬ ton, of Water Valley, was nominated for super¬ intendent of education, and the convention ad¬ journed, having completed the ticket. A Clergyman's Wife Burned to Death.. The wife of Rev. J. 8. Willis, ot Milford, Dela¬ ware, died Saturday from burns received by an explosion of a coal oil lamp. She was alone in the house at the time. Her daughter had been to a party, and returning home found the room on fire and her mother lying on the floor so badly burned that she died In four hours. They Didn't Want Pain's Head at Any Price..Gen. Wolseley, having been asked about Rochefort's story that Olivier Pain had a price put on his head by the British In the Sou¬ dan and was executed by them, has replied that no reward was ever offered by the British for Pain, and that "no British officer in the Soudan would have given five shillings lor Pain's head, on or off his shoulders." The Brit¬ ish embassy at Paris has imparted to M. de Freyclnet, the French foreign minister, a tele¬ gram from Major Kltcbner denying the story that Pain was shot. The telegram goes on to say that Pain died of fever last autumn. The French government has sent a communication to the English government expressing regret for Rochefort's attacks upon Queen Victoria, the Prince of Wales, Lord Lyons and others. . «.* ?

Trouble.HK

TO AUJX«^1N° MOV* OF JAT OOVIJ>B TH* KSOLISH BONDHOLBIB8.

The presence In this city, last Saturday, ofMessrs. Powderly, Turner, Buchanan, Baileyana Hays, the general executive board of thenignU of Labor, was construed to mean that

something ofconsiderable importance in con¬nection with that order was on foot. A Stabreporter made diligent effbrts to find Mr. Pow¬derly and his colleagues during the day, butthey were absent from their hotel. They hadrested from their labors and made a visit toMount Vernon. In the evening, however, thereporter was fortunate enough to meet all five

gentlemen together. Mr. Powderly. as1- reP1y to a question, stated that

wa conference in this city be-

rand a delegation of Knights of

X^borfrom St. Louis was erroneous. He saidH.?t»T?ef8.r8"xTur,,er» Buchanan, Bailey and

Just returned from a trip to St. Louis,where they went lor the purpose of looking intothe trouble which had arisen between the labororganization and the Wabash railroad. Mr.rowaerly was prevented by illness from accom¬panying them. The lour members of the boardcame direct from St. Louis to Washington, andau ot the gentlemen were satisfied that theymust have been mistaken for a delegation otine St. Louis knights. They could not accountin any other way for the report that such adelegation was coming here as, they said, nosuch move was ever contemplated. Mr. Pow¬derly, chairman of the board, Joined the othermembers in this city. Beyond some matters ofinterest only to the local order here, no busi¬ness was transacted.GOING TO MEET THE WABASH MANAGERS FACE

TO FACE.Mr. Powderly said to The Stab reporter:

"We are going from here to New York wherewe hope to meet tne managers of the Wabashrailroad. No, we have no engagement withthem. They have ruu away from us so far, butwe hope to catcu up with them, and mean to ifit takes all summer. We want to talk to themman (to man and settle this trouble. It hasbeen given out tiiat there is a strike on thew abash road. That is not true. Our men werelocked out. They did not strike. They areready and anxious to go back to work. No, sinu s not a strike. Tiiis whole trouble isacuu-niug moveol Jay Gould's to scare the Englishbondholders ot the road by making them be¬lieve that a big strike is on baud and that theirproperty is likely to be ruiued. With that fearbefore their eyes, Gould thinks they would sellout at low figures and he would gobble up theproperty. We ai'e desirous of settling thetrouble and of getting our men back to work.\\ e want to meet the managers, and, if theyare not pliant tools of Jay Gould we believe itcau be settled."

TO 11KEAK UP THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR..'General Manager Talmage," remarked Mr.

Turner, grand secretary and treasurer of theKnights of Labor, "denied in a telegram to ustnat'he had ordered any lockout, but we havean otneial letter of bis in which ue says that hefirst intends to break up the Knights*of Labor,and that then he will begin on the Brotherhoodoi Locomotive Engineers."'« VPowderly said that the board had onlyissued oue order, so lar, in connection with the\S abash road. lie explained that the reductionor .orce on that road had left it without menenough to do the work, and his board hadissued an order forbidding the Knights ofLabor on any of tiie other roads of the Gouldsystem from cleaning or repairing rolling stockor handling freight of the Wabash line. "If,"he added emphatically, "the Wabash managersinsist upon disregarding that order, If theyattempt, to force our men on the other roads tohelp the Wabash out, then a strike will beordered, and it will be a big one. Why," heauued, "a locomotive ought to be thoroughlycleaned every three days to keep it in good andsale running order, but the Wabash has beenrunning some of theirs eighteen days withoutcleaning. Some day there will be an explosion,and then it will be charged that the Knights ofLabor are using dynamite."HR. POWDERLY NOT A CANDIDATE FOB STATE

TREASURER OF PENNSYLVANIA.The reporter spoke to Mr. Powderly of the re¬

port that the democrats of Pennsylvaniathought of nominating him for state treasurer,

may say," he replied with earnestness,that I am not a candidate and would not ac¬

cept the nomination."

The SlieroMcoplsur Convention.A PAPER REAI) BY PROF. TAYLOR BEFORE THE

society in Cleveland.The annual meeting of the American Society

of Microscopists, in Cleveland, during the pastweek, has been one of the most interesting inthe history of the society. One paper thatcreated much discussion was ottered by Prof.Thomas Taylor, of this city, the microscopist olthe agricultural bureau, on "Butter and Fats; orhow to distinguish one fat from another bymeansofthe microscope." Prof.Taylorexplainedhis methods of examining lard, beef fat, andbutter, and described the appearance ol theirpure and impure conditions under microscopictreatment. He said tlfe globular crystals ofbutter, when kept lor a month or more, seem tobud like a vegetable spore, and frequently everyround crystal will show projecting from each asmaller crystal. The globular forms generallyvary from fifteen ten-thousandths of an inch totlieone hundredth ofan inch in diameter Theseforms are never seen in pure beef or lard fatsCare should be observed not to press the crys^tals flat, especially the globular crystals, asthe cross is not seen when severely pressedButter crystals vary slightly from each other insize and in some other slight particulars, suchas color. A committee of five was appointed toconsider the facts prescribed In the oanerDuring the meeting Prol. Taylor also illustratedon the blackboard the fungi ol the pine needleby cluster cups. Among those in attendance atthe convention were Gen. J. D. Cox, ex-Secre¬tary of the Interior; Miss Taylor, of this city,daughter of Dr. Taylor, and br. Detmers, whowas employed by the agricultural departmentat Washington to hunt for trichina.

Sympathy for Mr. Keiley.BISHOP KEANE WRITES A WARM LETTER TO

THE REJECTED MINISTER TO AUSTRIA.The Right Rev. John J. Keane, bishop of the

diocese of Richmond, recently wrote a letter toA. M. Keiley lu relation to what he terms the"shameful persecution" that gentlemen issuffering. The bishop says:."l allude to thetreatment inflicted on you as an insult notonlyto one of the most highly and deservedlyesteemed Catholics of the diocese of Richmondand one of the most honored citf^ns of Vir¬ginia, but through him to all his fellow Catho¬lics and fellow citizens in this country and tothe Holy Father himself. But in this Insult toyou I can see no humiliation save to those whohave offered it. It was an honor to be unwel¬come to a government whose whole course hasbeen maaked by injustice and irrellgion, andthe government of Austria having by ita recentact made itself the abettor of the guilt and part¬ner in the shame has thereby made Itself In¬capable of humiliating you. While I have re¬gretted the attacks made upou you by part ofthe dally press, still that need not concern usznucli, as nothing better was to be expectedrrom such partisan and interested sources. Iam confident that all Catholics whose opinionyou would esteem honor you for the persecu¬tion you have suffered for truth and Justicesake; Your position is, indeed, an embarrass¬ing one, with a family to provide for and yourbusiness transferred to others; but surely it can¬not be that our government, whose well-meant

placed you in this embarrassment,will leave you In it or fall to provide that yoube in no way loser by it."

ELOPED IN THE OLDA Teatanmme Tonif LMy LmHome fcy Means of a Ladder.Amantle Wcddlag at the City Hall.Near Raccoon Ford, in Culpeper county, Va.,

there resides Mr. John Zsch. Holliday. A youngman of 22, named Robert L. Hicks, formerly ofSpottsylvanla oounty, Is engaged on his farm.Miss Lena Welch, a buxom girl of 18, quitehandsome, with dark hair and eyes, Is em¬ployed by Mrs. Holliday to help her. Miss Lena,whose parents reside about half a mile away,and Mr. Hicks became lovers after an acquaint¬ance of but two months. They assumed thistender relation against the wishes of parents,who, as Miss Lena said, seemed to have an ideathat girls should not have beans. So closelywere they watched that they scarcelygot an opportunity to see each other,not to speak of promenading and conversingas other loving couples do. While Miss Lenawas locked up stairs last night, the hour ap¬pointed for an attempt to escape from the re¬strictions placed upon her into the haven ofmatrimony arrived. Looking out, like Juliet,of her window about 10 o'clock, she saw theend of a ladder placed against the eaves, and ina short time Mr. Hicks made his appearance onthe ladder,and beckoned to lier. Hastily puttiugon a straw hat and taking her shoes In herhand, she walked out of her window upon thetin roof fearful each moment that the rattlewould betray her. Fortune, however, favoredher, and she soon reached the ground and Mr.Hicks' loving arms. She put on her shoes, andthe two arm in arm walked over the muddyroads to Mitchell's station, a distance of sixmiles. They arrived there about 11:30 o'clockand took the train on the Virginia Midlandroad, arriving here about 8:30 this morning. Theconductor oi the train directed them to a coachand the court house. At the court bouse theymade their wishes known, and Mr. R J.Meigs, jr., the assistant clerk, issued alicense. Friends were found who sent forRev. M. A. Turner, of the M. E. Church.Some of the employes showed the groom into

the room adjoinlug the old Circuit Court room.Aunt Caroline, the colored woman in charge ofthe ladies' watting room, took the brlde-expec-taut to a room where sue ai ranged her toilet,the most difficult part of which was cleaningfrom her shoes the mud of "old Virginy." MissLouisa Dav's, who was on business at tbeCourtHouse, and heard of the proposed marriage,volunteered to act as bridesmaid, and Mr.Charles Pelham, a member ol the bar, volun¬teered to take the part of groomsman. A youngman presented the bride a handsome boquet.At 9:15 o'clock, Mr. Turner having taken hisplace in the Circuit Court ante-room, the bridalprocession left the waiting room, and marchedinto the presence of the minister. The knotwas tied, the bride received a kiss and congrat¬ulations followed. While waiting for theirmarriage certificate the couple frankly toldthose present of the difficulties they hud sur¬mounted. The young lady remarked that asshe was the oldest of live sisters, there wereenough left at home to help her parents.

Chisholm and Jamison, of the Garrett Guards,were out bird hunting. They had but recentlyseparated when Jamison raised a bird. Hefired, and besides bringing the quail downlodged the largest portion oi his charge in thebody of his friend Chisholm, who was concealedfrom view by the underbrush. The shotpierced Chlsliolm's clothing, but fortunatelymost of them lodged in a copy or The EveningStak, which the lieutenant was carrying in theinside breast-pocket of his coat. The foldedpaper was literally filled with shot and pre¬vented serious injury being done to Chisholm.One stray shot loogcu under one eye, indictinga painful wound, but his breast was saved byThe Star.

She Diwappointed Him.A MARRIAGE LICENSE WHICH WAS NOT ISSUED.There appeared at the court house this morn¬

ing a very pretty girl, accompanied by herbrother-in-law. She inquired at the clerk's officeIf a marriage license had been issued in whichher naifae Wtka inserted. Receiving a negativereply, she then said if a gentleman called toget a marriage license, and gave her name asthe intended bride, to hand hini a note whichshe wrote and left for him. In a few minutesthereafter the gentleman appeared, and. Mr.Camp handed bun the note when his face grewvery long, and he hustilv left. It appears thatthe lady is from New \ ork visitius friends inthis city, and that the gentleman followed herou here, expecting to marry her here.

Xr. TIMn and the AdministrateWHAT GKN. ROSKCRANS HAS TO SAT.

Gen. Rosecrans does not take any stock Inthe report that ex-Governor Tllden is at warwith the administration. He does not believethat Mr. Tilden hfei sought to dictate appoint*ments, or that he wonld put himself in anysuch attitude. The general thinks that if Mr.Tilden were asked to suggest a lit man for someposition he would probably do so, but that bewould never, unsolicited, propose men torappointment to office.The leading democrats it# Washington gen¬erally discredit the story of Mr. Tilden's atti¬tude toward the administration. As a rulethey express the opinion that if Mr. Tildenshould ask the appointment ofa man to officehe would be appointed.

He Went.Washington Correspondence N. Y. Run.Mr. Montgomery, the new commissioner of

patents, while engaged in "turning the rascalsout," decapitated a messenger In his bureauwho had been In office forseveral years withoutdoing much of anything to earn his salary.Upon receiving his discharge he made a greatpdoover It, and Insisted that the axe bad fallenon the wrong neck. He was a democrat, hesakl, and had always been a democrat, hadvoted the ticket straight at every election, andstood by his party even in the face of dischargeby a republican administration. Mr. Mont¬gomery looked him over and then called for theletters of recommendation upon which he wasoriginally appointed."You are a democrat, are you?""Yes, sir," replied the man."Ana always have been?""Always.""Then you are discharged for falsehood andand tor obtaining an office under false pre¬tence*. In this application for appointmenttiled five years ago you state that yon are a re¬

publican, no one but republicans endorsed you,and every one of them commends you as afaithful aud useful member of that party. Youcan go."There are a good many department clerks

turning up who have always been democrats,but this example has assisted to make suchpretensions unpopular.The Man Some Doctors Were LookingFor.From the Wellsboro Gazette.Charles 8. Kingsley, ol Mansfield, a veteran

of the late war, returned to his home in thatplace a few days ago for the first time since heenlisted, having been for twenty years con¬fined in an insane asylum at Washington. Hewas wounded twenty-three times in battle.He has the use of but one leg and one arm. Hewas shot once In the mouth, the ball comingout at the corner of the lelt eye. The wound hereceived in the head necessitated it being heldtogether by three silver plates. It was soonalter this operation that he became Insane. Ashort time ago It was discovered that the causeof his insanity was one of the plates pressingon his brain. The defect was remedied, and hegradually recovered his reason, and came outot a living death of twenty years. All that hastranspired in that long Interval Is a blank tohim, the war memories being to him as yester¬day. His papers will entitle him to a pensionof #73 a month and back peusion ot nearly$20,000. He found his family at Mansfield indestitute circumstances.Anti-German Demonstration In Madrid.A CROWD OF 40,000 PEOPLE TESTIFY THEIB

DISPLEASCjtE AT BISMARCK'S ACTIOS.An anti-German demonstration was begun in

Madrid yesterday. At 4 o'cloek 40,000 personshad assembled on the Prado with banners andother emblems. Speeches were made inSpanish and French, denouncing Bismarck'saction in annexing the Carolines.

Opposite the primeminister's palace cheers were raised tor thepremier, but he did not appear, aud the cheer¬ing changed to bowling and whistling. Severalmen scaled the balconies and planted a nationalflag amid a storm of enthusiastic cheers. Allthe clubs, including the military and aristo¬cratic, displayed banners. The procession washeaded by democratic leaders. It did not passthrough the street upon whicli the Germanlegation is situated. At a meeting of the Mili¬tary club. General Salamanca presiding, It wasunanimously agreed, amid Intense excitement,to expel the German honorary members.The Loudon NfmtdurU'* correspondent at Ber¬

Belll|«rfat Adalrfn of tkr Lllj.LIGHT ON THE ENCOUNTER OF THE

EARL. AND THE bAoNET.A cablegram from London to the New York

Herald says: Inasmuch aa the Lonsdale-CheUwjrnd quarrel still continues to be a frequenttopic of conversation here, and as all sorts ofstrange and contradictory rumors are In circula¬tion about It, I have taken the pains to ascertainthe actual facts about the origin ot the dispute.I now cable the whole story, as related tome, merely premising that my informant guar¬antees its absolute correctness.Sir George Chetwynd and Lord Lonsdale are

both very old friends of Mrs. Langtry. Owingto some reeling of icaiousy on her aciMunt, therehad been all through the past season a more orless concealed enmity between these gentlemen.Shortly before the row in the park Lord Lous-dale, while calling upon Mrs. Langtry at herhouse, happened to see on the mantelpiece apicture of herself painted on china, fie ad¬mired it very much, and as he rose to take hisleave he begged Mrs. Langtry to make a presentof it to him. Mrs. Langtry replied that the plo-ture was not hers; that It belonged to Messrs.Downey, the photograghers, who had refusedto sell It even to her. Thereupon Lord Lons¬dale said:."Well, at all event*, you can lendIt to lire. I would like to show it to some one."He was Anally allowed to take it away on con¬dition ot returning It lu a few days.

THE RAPE or THE PICTURE.Some time passed, however, and still Lord

Lonsdale neglected to keep his promise andbring back the picture. On the day l*?fore thefinal outbreak ot hostilities Mrs. Langtrv wasriding In the nark with Sir George Chetwvudon one side or her and Lord Lmsdale ami Mr.Alfredde Rothschild on the other. Mrs. lang¬try asked Lord Lonsdale when he was going togive back her picture. "Oh!" he replied, "1 amgoing to buy It from Downey." Sir GeorgeChetwynd then chimed in, saying that LordLonsdale ought to return the picture, andadding as he turned toward him, "It you don'tI will make you." High words then followedfrom both sides.

THE BATTLE.On the same evening Lord Lonsdale wrote to

Sir George Chetwynd requesting an apology,and threatening chastisement In case this wasrrtused. Sir George, however, did not see tit tosend any apology, and on the lollowing day.wisely or unwisely.Lord Lonsd:ile pnxwdedto the park to nut his threat into execution.He began by naunting in Sir George t'beb-wynd's face the receipt from Downey, whom hehad finally persuaded to sell htm the picturewhich had been the bone of the whole conten¬tion.

Bound to See Her Husband.THE RUSK MRS. HIX ADOPTED TO GET INTO A

RICHMOND JAIL.A sensation was caused iu police circles In

Richmond, Virginia, Saturday by the discoverythat one of the prisoners iu the city Jail whowas attired as a man was a woman. The nameof the prisoner is Henrietta Hix. Her husbanddeserted her in Boston a tew months ago.Learning that he had come to Richmond, thewife donned male attire and shipped on t>oardof a vessel at Boston as a cook about two weeksago.

Payment of Parnelllte Member*.IRISH CONSTITUENCIES INSISTING THEY SHALL

BE PAID FROM A GENERAL FUND.A dispatch from London to the Philadelphia

Pren, says there are symptoms of revolt In someof the Irish counties over the payment of theIrish members of the next parliament. Mr.Parnell insists that each constituency shall becompelled to pay its ownmember a salary upouwhich he can manage to live in London. Theelectors generally recognize the justice of pay¬ing the member so as to secure the services ofable men who could not otherwise afford to de¬vote themselves to politics, but some of thepoorer constituencies object to having the taxfor the support of their members direct lv as¬sessed upou them. They want a general fundraised, to which they, with others In Irelandand elsewhere, shall contribute according totheir means, and from which all the membersshall be paid alike. It is probable that somecompromise will be eflected by which the con¬stituencies will be required to pay what theycan, and that the deficiencies will afterward biemade up and the salaries equal izea by draftsupon the general fund.

Maxwell'* Line of Defense.The attorney lor Maxwell, who killed Preller,

has outlined his defense. He says that he willmake the state first prove that Preller is dead.Some persons in St. Louis are of the belief thatPreller is not dead, and that the hodv foundin the trunk Is that of Hugh Motham Brooks.This would make Maxwell out the young min¬ister who fled from England with Brooks, andwho has not been accounted lor. What leadsto the belief that the body in the trunk is thatof Brooks is that the underclothiug on thecorpse was marked "H. M. B." Maxwell, bythe advice of his attorney, will have nothingmgre to say about his case.ANOTHER IDENTIFICATION OF MAXWELL.W. A. Shaw, a stenographer, employed in the

office ol Wayne MacVeagh, in Philadelphia,has, through the descripi ions and newspapercuts of Maxwell, the alleged murderer ofPreller, at St. Louis, identified the accused asHugh Brooks, a former acquaintance of his atHyde, Leicester, England. Mr. Shaw last sawBrooks in August. 1884, when on a visit to hisparents, who reside near Hyde. Brooks thenhad an office as solicitor in Hyde, but did nothave much practice, and amused himseli withvarious scientific pursuits. He was much de¬voted to magic lanterns, and apparently wasaccustomed to make chemical exj»eriinents.He had many noticeable eccentricities, and inpersonal appearance was strange looking. HiBeyes would wander, and he seemed engaged instudy. His father had been summering at theIsle of Wight, aud during his absence the sonspent money extravagantly, aud to cover hisexpenditures forged his father's name to a notefor £300. On accouutof this misdeed he lettHyde and went to Dublin,afterward drilling toAmerica.

Price..Gen. Wolseley, having been askedabout Rochefort's story that Olivier Pain had aprice put on his head by the British In the Sou¬dan and was executed by them, has repliedthat no reward was ever offered by the Britishfor Pain, and that "no British officer in theSoudan would have given five shillings lorPain's head, on or off his shoulders."
