MILWAUKEE. Dec. :25.——There is every prospect that the war inaugurated against the Loyal Legion by Robert Chivas post, G. A. R., of this, city, will spread. Posts all over the state are taking sides in the con- troversy, and Chivas post has been indorsed more than it has been denounced. The ac- tion of Robert Chivas post was practically to demand that a boycott be declared against the cx—ofiicers of the war of the rebellion by the ex—privates and noncommissioned of- ficers. The ground was taken that the of- ficcm maintained a. select organization called the Loyal Legion, to which only of- ficers were eligible, while the Grand Army was open to all who had served their coun- try. For the last twenty-five years the of- ficers have been getting the cream of the po- litical offices, say the Chivas post men, and it is high time the privates had a show. Tc achieve this end they call on G. A. R. men to boycott the Loyal Legion men when it comes election time. Wanted “'ath' and Got Sand. MILWAUKEE, Dec. 25. —- While August Hubner and his sons were drilling an arte- sian Well on their farm near Forest Juno tion, fifteen miles south of Depere, and had reached a depth of 105 feet, they heard an underground rumbling, and suddenly a col- umn of sand was spouted from the well nearly 200 feet in the air, carrying the drills, rodsand derricks with it. The sand spouts continued at short inter- vals, gradually decreasing in force until 11 o’clock last night, when another column was sent up in the air. In the sand which is lying sirfeet deep around the well were heavy pieces of clay. The diameter of the well was tWenty—six inches to a-depth of ninety feet, and below that sixteen inches.

VICTORY The Result Is a Great Blow to the ‘Mc- Carthyites and Dillon Eloy Retire to Private Life—The Outconle by no 191811118 Assures Harmony. DUBLIN, Dec. 25,—The result of the elec- tion which took place yesterday at Wei. 1-— ford for a. member of parliament to succ-wl the late Richard Power was made. I-znmz'n. To the surprise of the political pro p" " John E. Redmond, the Parnellite can-dilxrvx, easily defeated the McCarthyite representa— tive, Mr. Michael Davitt. The polling was. as follows: Mr. John E. Redmond (Parnellite), 1,725; Mr. Michael Davitt (McCarthyitc), 1,229. Majority for Mr. Redmond, 496. Mr. John E. Redmond, the successful can- didate, when the result was made known was hoisted upon .. the shoulders of his friends, and was borne about in triumph, amid roars of enthusi- astic cheering. Fi- nally Mr. Red- mond was allowed . to make a speech, dining the course of which he said that he was. cer- tain that the re- sult of the election would be received ‘ with pleasure by the Irish every- where. Continu- ing, Mr. Redmond said that he regretted that the “dead chief whose heart was broken with the ingrati— J. E. REDMOND. tude and treachery shown toward him had , not lived to see this day.” [Loud cheering, and groans for the McCarthyites.] Mr. Red- mond also said, “'We must never forget this. blow struck in the cause of Irish independ- ence.” [Renewed applause] _ A Great Parnellite Victory. This victory is a heavy blow to the Mo- Carthyitcs, who were confident of victory, and will serve to give a new lease of life to the Parnellite party. It is now believed to t be certain that the followers of the late Mr. Parnell, as represented under the leadership of Mr. Redmond, will win a number of other seats and be able to maintain them- selves as a distinct party for some time to come. The number of registered electors at the last election, when the late Mr. Richard Power, ahome ruler, was returned unop< posed, was 3,940, and 2,954 votes were cast yesterday for the two candidates for the favors of W'aterford’s citizens. It will thus be seen that about 1,000 persons abstained for one reason and another from voting. The Parnellites are jubilant, of course. So late as yesterday afternoon the general opinion in political circles here and in Eng- land was that Mr. Davitt had won, and be- fore thc polls were opened it was predicted on all sides that he would win by about 500 majority. Naturally the Parn’ellites say that their victory at W'aterford is a vindication of the principles they uphold. In any case it is difficult to see how the result of the Water- ford election can tend to bring harmony into the councils of the Irish parliamentary party. The Parnellites are now in a. posi- tion to dictate terms, and it is safe to say that they will not be backward in doing so. Dillon hIay Now Retire. It is probable that the most surprised man in Great Britain and Ireland today is Mr. Michucl Davitt. His friends counted firmly on the full support of the labor vote in addition to the regular vote of the party, but, contrary to the sanguine predictions, the labor vote was either cast against him or else maintained a neutral attitude and remained at home. It will be impossible until the effects of this unexpected victory have been weighed by all partiest-o predict or even guess at its eventual outcome, so far as the prospects of Irish legislation are concerned. The minds of the leaders of both Irish factions are at present too much excited to admit of any- thing likc reconciliation. Mr. Dillon announced at \Vaterford on Thursday last that if Waterford returned the Parnell‘ 0 candidate, he, Mr. Dillon, 'would feel ound to tell his countrymen that there was no longer any hope in con- stitutional legislation, and that he himself should retire to private life. _Many are now asking themselves if Mr. Dillon Will keep his word, and rumor has it that should he do so other prominent Irish ~members of parliament may follow his ex- ample. Sir Edwin Arnold Disgusted.- OMAHA, Dec. 25.—Sir Edwin Arnold was billed to deliver a lecture at the Grand ' opera house in this city last night, and a large number of people wandered thither to listen to the great English poet, but found the house dark and left declaring the thing a. swindle. He came here under the man- agement of N. D. Clowherd, a Kansas City musician of very poor executive ability. The advance sale of seats brought in $225, but the expenses ran up to $130, without the house management being paid. Clow- herd is under contract to pay Sir Edwin $400 per night, and fearing that the amount would not be raised he refused to open the house. As a result a lawyer and constable chased him all over. town, but failed to find 'him. To say that Sir Edwin is disgusted is not properly stating it, while the public do nounce him as a mighty weak kneed man- ager and are howling for the return of their money. The New Postal Cards. WASHINGTON, Dec. 25,—The postoflice do partment has commenced to issue the two new sizes of postal cards. The small cardis the same width as the present one, but about one-third of an inch shorter and of much finer quality. The large card is an inch longer and about three-fourths of an inch wider than the present one. It is of commercial yellow color and of excellent quality. The stamp on these cards is the portrait of General Grant. Chief Mayes’ Successor. TAHLEQUAH, I. T., Dec. 25.—-The Chero kee Nation has chosen C. J. Harris first chief and Stephen Tehee second chief.

The Mercior Deficit- Grows as the» Figures Are Brought to Light. AND WOBSB YET MAY 00MB. The Province of Quebec ls Practically Bankrupt, and the Only Thing to Do Is to Negotiate Another Loan. Even the Clerks Unpaid. MONTREAL, Dec. 25.—The most scandal- ous feature yet brought to light in the reign of the Mercier government is the enormous deficit in the Quebec treasury. A statement which will be put before the country very shortly will stagger even Mercier’s intimate friends. According to the treasurer’s own figures ordinary expenditures for this year Will reach $4,000,000. Ordinary revenue, $3,457,000, leaving a deficit of nearly $600,- What the treasurer called special expend- iture amounts to $1,690,000. making a total deficit $2,223,000, an excess of expenditures over receipts amounting to more that-11:52,- 000,000 for this year. It has turned out that large contracts were given without tenders and without orders in council; for instance, Mr. Vfallierc has contracts for furnishing all public buildings and no price is stipulated. The lieutenant governor never sanctioned the contract, and the (loud was only depos¥ ited in the department the day of the dis- missal of the ministry. ' hIel'cicr’s Rnlnous Policy. Mcrcier has run the province $15,000,000 in debt during the last five years and the debt is now $40,000,000 to a a population of 2,000,000, and the $441003: ,0 borrowed last year is completely gone. It takes over half the revenue of .the province to pay the in- terest 6n the debt. The new government has only one resource left—to float another loan, for there is not enough money in the treasury to pay the running expenses. Civil servants in Quebec have not received their salaries for two months, and there is over a million and a quarter of dollars due on railway subsidies for which there is no money. It is not believed that foreign finan- ciers will lend money to Quebec in view of the present financial situation. There is a rumor that the new government will re- pudiate the debt and refuse to pay interest on it. Hot Shot for Angers. OTTAWA, Dec. :25.—Considerable surprise is expected here, even in olficial circles, over the dissolution of the Quebec legislature. Mr. A. F. McIntyre, the eminent constitu- tional lawyer, who was consulted by Hon. Mr. Mercier, the dismissed premier, said to your correspondent: “The action of Lieutenant Governor An- gers was a. greater outrage upon the rights of the people than the dismissal of Mercier. While the latter was a gross violation of the spirit of the constitution, the dissolution of the legislature constitutes violation of posi- tive law, inasmuch as the confederation act specifically declares that the legislature shall be convokcd once in each year. “That not longer than a year shall elapse between its meetings. This attempt to carry on the government by a junta would justify the convocation of the constituent assembly in the province, the formation of a provisional government and a. declaration of withdrawal from the confederation until the parliament of Canada should impeach Governor Angers and his Ottawa advisers and guarantee the rights and privileges pos- sessed by the province under the confed- eration act.” ' ' Elkins Takes the Oath. WASHINGTON; Dec. 25.—The president Thursday signed the commission of Mr. Stephen B. Elkins as secretary of war and subsequently Mr. Elkins took the oath of office, it being administered in the office of the secretary of war at the war depart ment by Chief Clerk Tweedale. There were present Secretary Blaine, Assistant Secre- tary Grant of the war department, Adju- tant General Williams, Major General Scho- field and other officials of the department. Previous to taking the oath of Office Mr. Elkins called on the president and remained with him for some time. Mr. Elkins will not assume charge of the war department until the 4th of January next. A Jewelry Store Robbed. CORTLAND, N. Y., Dec. 25.——The jewelry store of Roe &. Sutfin’s, at Fneeville, was entered by burglars after midnight. The safe was blown up, the door having been wrenched completely off, and $2,000 worth of jewelry stolen. The burglary was evi~ dently the work of experts. They efiected an ‘entrance through the rear of the store, and their work on the safe shows a well planned job. BRIEF MENTION. Speaker Crisp has gone to his home in Georgia for the holidays. While not ill, be is much broken down. fil‘he Crescent pottery, at Trenton, was destroyed by fire. Over 500 men are thrown out of employment. Advices from China received at London give details of the grave state of affairs now existing in that country. The town 01 Tehewei has been sacked by rebels, who are now besieging Yen Tsi Hsiem, and raids by bandits are of frequent occurrence. In ad- dition to these internal troubles an open rupture with Japan is threatened. J. B. Holsinger held a lighted match under the counter in his store at J Ohns- town. A can of powder took fire, the store was wrecked and Mr. Holsinger was fatally injured. , The grip is increasing in south Jersey. Whole families in Cape May county are ill with the malady and are suffering for want of care and medical attendance. After Jan. 1 there will be but two inter- state commerce commissioners left, and there is some comment at the capital upon the fact that the president permitted the senate to go without sending in names to fill the vacancies. Under the law the re maining commissioners exercise all the powers of the commission. An insane man named Craig climbed ti. the top of a seventy-five foot tree near Tem- pleton, and the tree had to be sawed off in order to get him down. He said he was trying to get 'to heaven. Congressman Hemphill was married at Washington to Miss Henry. The ceremony Was a. brilliant one. Subsequently Mr.’ and Mrs. Hemphill started for South Carolina. The dissolution of the Roumanian parliaf ‘ment, which was announced at Bucharest, is said to be the result of Russian intrigues in that country. The elegtions will be held in February - and will be a test“ of the strength of Russian influence in that coun- try. The result may have an important bearing on the Balkan problem.

The two Emporia posts of the G. A. R. were in line, as was also Company E, Kansas Na- tional guard. Colon-all J. M. Steele marched a. detail from the survivors of Plumb’s old regiment, the Eleventh Kansas, under com- mand of Lieutenant XV. V. Phillips, for- ward to act as pallbearers for the Grand Army. - Into the hands of these men were de- livered the remains of their beloved com- mander and they were immediately conveyed to the waiting hearse. The column then formed and escorted the remains to the residence of the deceased, Where the casket was borne into the south parlor and where a detail consisting of Lieutenant Phillips and other members of the'Elevcnth Kansas was placed on guard. The old soldiers decided to leave the work of completing plans and details for the funeral in the hands of Colonel Steele, whe prepared the programme. Private services were held at the residence, after which the remains were escorted to the First Congre- gational church by Emporia commandery, N o. 8, Knights Templar, under whose charge it laid in state until 2 O’clock Thursday afternoon, _ when public funeral services were held. Further sewices were then conducted by the G. A. R., and the, body borne to the tomb. ' The city was draped in the deepest mourning, business houses and most of the private residences displaying tokens of grief. Every incoming train brought addi- tions to the crowds already gathered from the surrounding country, and there were more people in Emporia than ever before in its history. YO UNG FIELD I) EFENDED. Not Implicated, It Is Said, in the Dollie . Davis Suicide. NEW YORK,'Bec. 25.—The Sun, in a three column item, says that after Ina-king a care- ful investigation into the mysterious dis- covery of Marie Arigasel at Croton Landing last J une certain facts have been discovered which efiectually clear E. M. Field of hav-_ ing any connection at all with the paternity of the girl’s child or her subsequent death, as published yesterday. l-‘It is true that he paid the funeral expenses of the girl, but that was merely a voluntary kindness, she having been for some time employed in his household. There is no change in Edward M. Field’s behavior from what it has been since he was first incarcerated in Ludlow street jail. He still refuses to partake of food and spends his time in looking over the papers. Dr. Crosby, the jail physician, says that he does not propose to take any action toward com- pelling \Mr. Field to partake of food. He says he will merely let him alone until he becomes hungry. Mr. Cyrus W. Field’s condition remains unchanged. He is still weak and helpless, and the fact that he has not rallied from the last of his severe Shocks gives his friends and relatives much anxiety.
