this state, and rain has been falling for'
the last terl days; George W. Harmon an’d
George H. IValsh, railroad commissioners,

“have arrived'in this city from the-'Red

river valley. They say that wheat is
sprouting. and if the weather keeps wet
great damage will be done. Reports from
McIntosh, Chandler. Stark and Cass couno
ties confirm this report.

It will be impossible to thrash the crop this
fall should the weather be good. Burleigh

ho se power machines. are in operation.

Two llIOre‘Unfnrtuuatc Miners Still En-
tI'l'lllhli'Jl ,ln Richardson Colliery.

Pori‘svTLLE,. Pa, Oct. 9.—After four
days and nigits of unceasing labor, and
after hundreds of tons of coal had been re-
moved by the rescuing party, the bodies
of four of the unfortunate miners impris-
oned by running pillars last Saturday at
Richardson colliery, Glen Carbon, have
been found.

There. was great rejoicing when news
was sent to the surface that theim-
prisoned miners had been reached, but it
soon turned to sadness and grief when it
became known that. the men were dead
and that the bodies of only four of the
six had been found, badly mutilated but
yet recognizable, as those of John Purcell,
John Lawler, Joseph Shields and James
Salmon. '

The rescuing party- are working with re«
n'ewed vigor for the recovery of the bodies
of Thomas Clancy and Michael Welsh,
and there is every prospect of reaching
them in a short time.

A Wife “'ields a Horsewhip.

PASSAIC, N. J ., Oct. 9.—Mrs. Henry
Frain, J r., appeared in the Passaic Police
court with a tale of woe, of which her hus-
band is the villain. The couple have been
married fOur years and have three chil-
dren. For over a year, it is said, Frain
has been neglecting his wife for agrass
widow named Mrs. Sheehan. Last Friday
night Mrs. Fraiu followed the pair with a
horsewhip under her apron, and while they
stood under a tree in a lonesome part of
Monroe street she came upon them, and
used her whip with impartial violence.
Mrs. Sheehan had black and blue streaks
on her , body and Mr. Frain’s face was
striped: MnFrain did not return home
that night. nor’, has he rejoined his spouse
yet. She therefore applied to the authori-
ties to compelhim to provide for her.

Lieutenant Governor Joiies' Eyesight.

NEW YORK, .Oct. 9.—Lieutenant Gov-
ernor Edward F. J ones, with a thick ban-
dage over both eyes, is literally a prisoner
in his darkened room at the Park Avenue
hotel. He is made as comfortable as pos-
sible under the circumstances, but is
obliged to keep perfectly quiet- since the
operation upon his left eye.’ He is prepar-
ing to undergo similar treatment to the

right. The lieutenant governor feels much

easier than at any time since the Opera-
tion was performed last Tuesday. It will
probably‘be a month at least before he can
use his eyes, provided that the treatment
proves successful. Dr. Noyes believes that

the sight of his patient will be fully and

permanently restored.

of the Third district judicial convention.

met there was no opposition to the nomi-
nation of D. Cndy Herrick, and he was
unanimously named for the office of su-
preme court judge. The nomination was
a genuine surprise, for it had beenstated

fore it adjourned in which he stated that
he had made no concessions.

THE DEATWATNTLL

’A'Post. llortem Examinatidn to Defi-

nit'ely Settle the Cause of It.
TO HAVE A PUBLIC FUNERAL

It Has Been So Decided by the Family
. and the Parnelllte Members of Par-
liument—The Outlook for Unity
Is Not So Encouraging.
LONDON, Oct. 9. ——A dispatch from Bright-
on is to the effect that the physician’s cer-
tificate, which had just been filed, states

that the death of Mr. Parnell was caused

by rheumatic fever. resulting in excessive
temperature and failure of the heart. _A
post uiortem examination will be held
with the view of definitely settling the
cause of death. - '

At a family council held at Walsing-
ham terrace the necessary arrangements
for the funeral were made, after a con-
sultation had been had with the committee

‘of Irish members of parliament, who have

been deputed to participate in the prepara-
tions for the ceremony. The consultation

thrash, and only six machines, mostly. resulted in favor of a public funeral, and

the body will be buried at Avondale,
County \Vicklow, Ireland, the brithplaco
of Parnell.‘ . .

The Parnellite parliamentary delegates
now‘ at Brighton, immediately after re-
ceiving the certificate of the physicians as
to the cause of Mr. Parnell’s death, held a
meeting, at which a. resolution was adopt-
ed expressive or‘ their great sorrow at the
death of the illustrious Irish Chieftain,

and offering their heartfelt sympathy to

the Irish people and to the widow of the
dead leader; it‘ll-s. l’urnell’s daughter, who
attended the meeting, conveyed to her
mother the sympathetic messages of the
delegates. ' . ,
_ The Prospect of Unity.

Today the prospect Of an 'Irish reunion
pver the grave of Parnell is less encourag—
ing. The news from. Parnellite associa-
tiOns, both in Great Britain and Ireland,
confirms the anticipation that an attempt
willbe made to keep up the organization
with the same motives and aims as hereto-
fore. _ Much depends on a meeting of the
Parnelliternembers of parliament. which
will take place soon after the burial of
If they should resolve to give up
the contest it is thought that the various
leagues would follow suit. . _

The chances for harmony have not been
increased by the bitter language of the
Dublin Catholic, the organ of the bishops,
and by the scarcely disguised hatred in
the comments of the anti-Parnellite Dub-
lin Press. Even if the Parnellites should
dissOlve as a party, it is believed that
many of them will either vote with the
Tories or abstain from voting altogether.
Their dissolution, however, is at _ present
doubtful, and one of the leading Parnell—
ites said last night that they would prob-
ably wait for the other side to act.

Undoubtedly one of the main obstacles
to a ‘ reunion is the bitterness that has
characterized the opposition to Mr. Par-
nell, as voiced more especially by Mr.
Timothy Healy. In the face of death the
Parnellites feel less than ever like forget-
ting the cruel attacks upon Parnell and
the woman who shared his later fortunel.
To Healy and one of his associates is at-
tributed the origin of the rumor that Par-
nell had committed suicide, to refute
which the family felt compelled to reveal
the scene of the death bed, with allits sad-
dening circumstances.

Cardinal Gibbons on Parnell.

NEW YORK. Oct. 9.—\Vhen asked for an
csib- ill-"Hf the dead Irish leader, Cardinal
Gibbon. l-"lll: “Before his fall, by reason
of the O'o‘nea affair. Mr. Parnell impressed
me, as he did other readers of the daily
DCV\'~'pn 1101‘s, as a man of extraordinary
ability, with :1 self passession that was
truly "workable. He was possessed of an
ilnpcl‘lllll‘lmble uispOsitiou,whicli in debate
gave him great vantage ground over his
opponents: Apparently he was never dis-
corlcel-rcd by tile attacks of his enemies;
he never lost his head.

“His downfall was as sudden as his rise
Was remarkable. Undoubtedly he had all
the qualities Of an able leader. But after
his entanglement in the unfortunate alli-
ance with Mrs. O’Shea he could no longer
be a-leader of a Catholic people. Politics
can not be altogether divorced from morals.

“As for the future of Ireland, of course
all its friends hope for the best. Fortu-
nately, her hopes rest on no man, but in
the justice of her cause.”

 

“'hlte's Creditors Restrained.

CHICAGO, Oct. 9.—When the firm of' S.
V. Wmte 8.: Co. failed, many of the cred-
itors of the firm garnisheed several firms
that were indebted to White & Co., and
thereby tied up a. considerable portion of
the assets. J udge' Blodgett, on the appli-
cation of the receiver for the Chicago
branch .of S. V. White & 00., issued airin-
junction restraining further prosecution

.of the garnishment proceedings, and gave

these creditors leave to become parties to
the suit filedin the United States court
for an equitable distribution of the assets.
This was done because it was urgedithlat
the assets would be dissipated in useless
litigation. ' ‘ ' ' ‘ "

A Keg‘of Old (but Bright Dollars»

PITTSBURG, Oct. 9.—The keg of bright

silver dollars, dated from 1823 to 1830,
which were sent by the Economite society
to its bank in Beaver Falls a. few days ago,
when rumors reflecting on the stability of
that institution were circulated, is said to
be a part of the immense treasure buried
by Father Rapp, the founder of the so-
ciety, in 1831, when Count Proli and his
brother adventurers were trying to carry
off the wealth of Economy.

A Cape May Hotel Keeper Fails.

CAPE MAY, Oct. 9,—Anson H. Ham-
