‘ He wm Probably Withdraw His Al-
sace-Lorraine Decree.
I His Deputies IVill Follow Closely in the
Wake of the McCai-tliyites, and
Will Stump the United States
from Canada to the Gulf.
BERLIN, March 4.—The emperor, molli-
fied by more recent representations from
his mother and grandmother, has under
consideration the withdrawal of the orders
sent last week to Alsace—Lorraine for in’
creasod stringency on the frontier. That
the order was in retaliation for the re-
ported ill treatment of the Empress Fred-
erick there is no doubt, as regulations
which the order revoked were not to go
into effect until April 1, and therefore no
haste was necessary. ;
From April 1, instead of passports, a
system of intimation cards was to come ,
into use, whereby all foreigners coming
into the Reichsland to reside should an-
nounce their presence to the authorities,
and. all their changes of residence. For
the present this is abrogated, but it is be-
lieved in Berlin that the Kaiser will
change his mind.
Parnell’s American Mission.
LONDON, March 4.—Mr. Parnell is deter-
mined to follow up his successes in Ireland
by the immediate invasion of America, and
he has chosen a corps of deputies well fit-
ted to make an impression there. Henry
Harrison is the stalwart young member of
parliament who interposed between Mr.
Morley and a policeman’s baton at Tippe-
rary, receiving on his own head the blow
intended for the Liberal statesman.
Mr. O’Kelly is a former American jour-
nalist. Mr. William Redmond is one of
the most aggressive men in the National
league, and John O’Connor was intrusted
with United Ireland immediately after its
capture by Parnell. They will follow close
in the wake of the McCarthyites,. and
stump the United States from Canada to
the Gulf. -
O’Kelly Confident.
Mr. O’Kelly said yesterday that he had
no doubt of the success of their mission.
“The heart of America,” he said, “like the
head of Ireland, is with Parnell, because
they know that he is for Ireland as a na-
tion, not Ireland as the football of English
party politics. They know the home rule
that Parnell wants is real home rule and
not a mockery.” _
Mr. O’Kelly added that he was sorry for
his associates who had seceded from Mr.
Parnell, and he believed that, with two or
three exceptions, they were sorry for them-
selves. The union of the party under the
old leadership was a question of probably
not a. long time. Mr. O’Kelly character-
ized as the height of impudence the at-
tempt of certain English Liberals to die-
tate who the leader of the Irish party
should be or should not be.
Sadler Discharged.
LONDON, March 4.—The fireman, Sadler,
who was arrested on Feb. 13 last, the day
the woman named Frances Coleman, other-
wise known as “Carroty Nell,” was found
murdered in Whitechapel, and who was
charged with having murdered her, has
been discharged. The police could not col-
lect sufficient evidence to connect him with
the crime, which is now definitely placed
to the account of the mysterious and un-
findable murderer whom the police and
public know only under the designation
of “Jack the Ripper.”
It Looked Like the Ripper’s Work.
LONDON, March 4.—What at first prom-
ised to be another “Jack the Ripper” sen-
sation was caused this morning by the dis-
covery of a woman’s arm and leg, wrapped
‘ in canvas, on the bank of the Regent’s
canal. Search was begun for the body to
which the limbs had belonged, but later
examinations of the fragments indicate
the probability that they are parts of some
medical student’s “cadaver.”
Loss Fully Half a Million.
NORTH ADAMS, Mass, March 4.—The
upper Jacquard weave shed at Adams,
owned by the Renfrew Manufacturing
company, was burned. The shop was
filled with valuable Jacquard looms and
employed 000 hands. The loss On the
weave shed, with machinery, stock, etc., is
fully half a million. The insurance is
placed entirely with the Manufacturers’
Mutual Insurance association, and will
not fully cover the loss. The fire is thought
to have been caused by an explosion. The
shed was built ten years ago by the Ren-
frew Mill company, and was used in the
manufacture of ginghams and figured
damask tablecloths. It ran over 400 Jae.
quard and 600 ordinary looms. It is the
largest fire the town has had for many
years, and it is a serious blow to its, indus-
tries.
Lingo’s Trial.
CAMDEN, N. J., March i—Wednesday
Francis Lingo, the negro who is now
imprisoned on the charge of murdering
Mrs. Miller, will be, tried here for that
crime before Judge Garretsonl Lingo
pleaded not guilty on Saturday through
his counsel. Mrs. Miller was a young
woman. She was assaulted and brutally
murdered in September last in the woods
at Marchtown. The body was covered
with blood and was horribly mangled.
The woman had evidently made a desper-
ate struggle for her life, as the ground
where her body was found bore traces of it.
Found Their Two Children Dead.
son, of 447 West Huron street, went to the
theatre last night, locking their two chil-
drena-Hans, aged 9 years, and Mercy, aged
4 years-in the house. During the parents’
absence a lamp which had been left bum-
'ing dimly exploded, and when they came
home the children were dead, having been
suffocated by smoke.
“Adirondack" Murray’s Homestead.
NEW HAVEN, Conn., March 4,—W. H. H.
Murray,the famous author of “Adirondack
Tales,” etc., has purchased the old Mur-
which he was compelled to part some years
since on account of financial reverses. He
will pass the remainder of his life there,
doing quiet work and forsaking the lecture

A DEAD HUSBAND’S ADVICE.
In the ‘I‘Vidow’s Dreams He Told Her
of an Estate Which ShOuld Be
Hers—A Skeptical Lawyer Blakes
Some Astonishing Discoveries.
NEW YORK, March 4.—A lawsuit Will be
begun shortly which iDVOIVes. a strange
story of romance and mystery. The plain-
tiff» is a client of Lawyer Benjamin Patter-
son, of 234 Broadway. Mrs. Grace Bush-
nell is her name. She is a woman in the
prime of life, comely and intelligent. Her
home is at Greenbush, near Albany.
Lawyer Patterson has friends in Green-
‘bush who recommended him to her for
advice.
Mrs. Bushnell is the widow of the late
John Francis Bushnell, who served in the
Ninth New York cavalry during the late
war. Bushnell entered the army as a pri-
vate. At the end of the war he retired
with the rank of major. He settled down
in upper New York, married the present
Mrs. Bushnell, who was his second wife,
in 1867, and he died without issue in 1889.
Since the beginning of the year Mrs.
Bushnell has been a regular weekly visitor
to Lawyer Patterson’s office. She does not
claim to be a Spiritualist, but certain reve—
lations which she says have been given to
her in dreams are tending to make her a
stench believer in the supernatural.
She Dreamed It.
Mrs. Bushnell’s first visit to Lawyer Pat~
terson occurred on Jan. 4. She introduced
herself as the late Maj. Bushnell’s widow,
and said that she had a vague sort of idea
that a large estate at Port Richmond,
Staten Island, belonged to her. When Mr.
Patterson asked the lady to give her reas-
ons, she said that the only one she had was
revealed to her in a dream.
“On New Year’s eve,” she explained, “I
fell asleep while looking into the fire. I
dreamed that my husband appeared at my
side. He twined his arm about my neck,
and folding me to his breast he said:
‘Gracie, you are poor and you ought to be
rich. There is a big estate in Port Rich-
mond which belongs to you. It belonged
to me while I lived, but I never told you
about it. I had intended to mention it to
you before I died, but I left your world
suddenly and could not.’ ” ' =
Mr. Patterson felt very skeptical when
he heard this, and told Mrs. Bushnell very
candidly that he did not think it worth
his while to institute an investigation on
the very flimsy basis she offered. He spoke
to her kindly and advised her to go home,
dream again and get more facts.
Again She Dreamed It.
Mrs. Bushnell did dream again. With—
in a. week 'she was back at the lawyer’s
office with an elaboration of her first
dream. She said that the late Maj. Bush-
nell had appeared from shadowland once
more. In answer to her questions he said
that the estate had an estate of about
twenty acres, that it was on the river front
and that it contained about 300 lots.
But the lawyer continued to remain
skeptical and look upon his visitor as the
dupe of alleged Spiritualists, which she
was not, and a very emotional woman,
which she really was. Mrs. Bushnell con-
tinued her visits, and although she was
unable to gather any more facts about the
estate from her ghostly husband she be-
came more and more clamor-Otis in her re-
quests that a search should be made for
her title.
Mrs. Bushnell offered a liberal fee as a
reward for the work, which fee Mr. Patter-
son refused, for his client was by no means
wealthy. Impressed, however, by the earn-
estness and somewhat annoying persistence
of the woman, he caused an investigation
to be instituted. ‘
Her Dream Proves True.
Imagine his astonishment on discovering
two remarkable facts. In the first place
he found that there was such an estate as
the one described, and, second, that Mrs.
Bushnell had a claim for dower in it. The
records of a liabeas corpus proceeding pend-
ing in this county disclose the fact that
the child (a. girl), who was supposed to be
the heir to this property, was not the daugh-
ter of Maj. Bushnell’s brother, who was
legally entitled to it. The papers in the
case show that the child was the daughter
of a lady Whose husband had deserted her
and gone west.
Determined to follow her husband and
find him the lady placed her baby girl in
charge of a friend, agreeing to pay her a
small sum monthly for the little one’s sup-
port. On her return east, after an absence
of two years, the lady was astounded to
learn that none of the remittances sent by ,
her had been received by her baby’s guard-
ian, and that her little girl had been hand—
ed over to a charitable institution as an
abandoned child.
The distracted mother, who was now
very poor, applied to the charitable insti-
tution, and was told that her little. one was
dead to her forever, having been adopted
by a good and wealthy gentleman. It fur-
thermore appears that the mother made
strenuous efforts through all the courts to
obtain her child on habeas corpus proceed—
ings and failed. Action will now be
brought by Lawyer Patterson to establish
Mrs. Grace Bushnell’s right to the estate
in Port Richmond. ' .

ALBANY LEGISLATION.
Proceedings in the Senate and in the
, Assembly.
ALBAI’Y, March 4.—-—In the senate the
following bills passed: Mr. Laughlin’s, al-
lowing settlement of water leases 'in Black
Rock basin; Mr. Van Gorder’s, increasing
salary list in state hospitals from $12,000
to $13,000 for the purpose of paying female
physicians: Mr. McNaughton’s, appro-
priating $10,000 for culvert at Adams ba-
sin; Mr. McNaughton’s, appropriating
$3,000 for new roof over armory at Roch-
ester; Mr. Whipple’s, amending the Fre~
donia charter; Mr. Guenther’s, appropriat—
ing $15,000 for the bridge over canal at
Tonawanda; Mr. Coggeshall’s, the drafted
men bill of last year. _
In the Assembly.
In the assembly—.Bills passed: Mr.
O" Connor’s, allowing the Brooklyn Bridge
company to extend its structure, both in
New York city and Brooklyn; Mr. Ackers’,
to prevent deception in publishing false
pedigrees of horses; Mr. Bradford’s, an act
encouraging the drainage of agricultural
lands; Mr. Smith’s, providing for fishways
in Cattaraugus creek; Mr. Hunter’s, for
repairing and building burned parts of
Auburn prison; Mr. Ives’, providing for
additional notaries public.
Mr. Hildreth’s proposed measure to regu-
late the sale of wine, ale and beer at pub-
lic balls and festivals came up. Mr. Foley
thought that the bill was unjust to many
organizations in New York city who hold
balls there in the winter. The bill should
be amended, and he accordingly asked that
the license be reduced from $25 to $10. The
amendment prevailed, and the bill then
went on the order of third reading.
Ignatius Donnelly’s Warning.
ST. PAUL, Minn, March 4.——During a de—.
bate on the interest bill in the senate Igna-
tius Donnelly gave notice that the Alliance
would in future act independently of both
the old parties. Mr. Donnelly had charged
that the bankers of Minnesota were using
money to get the bill through the' legis-
lature, and several senators had warmly
replied to the insinuatlons of the Shake-
spearian iconoclast, when Mr. Donnelly
arose white with rage and shouted: “The
senators may have all the rest of the session
to blackguard me. I tell you the Demo-
crats who came in here on the tidal wave ‘
of Alliance fortune will regret the position
they have taken, and the Alliance, too, has
learned a lesson. Hereafter it will stand
alone.”
The Yale-Harvard Boat Race.
BOSTON, March 4.—Negotiations as to
where the annual Yale-Harvard boat race
will be rowed are still pending. The an-
nouncement made that New London has
been decided upon is entirely premature.
As a matter of fact the two colleges have
submitted to the New London board of
trade the terms on which they will row on
the Thames. These terms the New London
business men are now considering. If they
accept them the races will stay in New'
London. If they do not agree to them,
then the races will go elsewhere.
Great Expectations.
HOUSTON, Tex., March 4.—Several heirs
to an immense fortune which, it is said, is
left from the estate of Robert Edwards, of
Kentucky, have been discovered in Hous-
ton. The inheritance involves the right of
ownership of land on Broadway, Wall
street and around Trinity church, New
York city. The property is said to be val-
ued at $267,000,000. ,
Chilian Troops Join the Rebels.
