for it bait for the lawyer to write to his wife, and
announce his speedy return.
I have not solved the mystery,' be wrote, 'but I
have come to the end of the story; I am afraid we
must make up our minds that we shall never see our
poor girl again. I have the most unmistakable
evidPnce that Helen went onboard a boat at Orguelet,
a Jittle fishing village some ten miles from Biarritz, on
Christmas morning. No one seems to know whither
they were bound—sometimes those boats go a long
way—but there is no reasonable doubt that this one
was lost in the storm of Chestmas Day. WO did not
have it so badly in England. Here they Fay it was
furious, and some part of that unlucky boat came
ashore somewhere after the gate. An old man of the
name of Pierre Gravelot—does Mrs. Churchill know
him, I wonder—picked her up by the roadside, and
gave her carriage to Orguclet, where she did not stop
more than two hours. After that, the sea knows, and
heaven.'
It was a terrible letter to receive: it struck to their
hearts with a cold chill to all but Madge—she refused
to believe that Helen was dead. There had come to
be a bond of sympathy between the two girls in their
grief that linked them together even with a nearer
tie than thatbetween the two sisters.
I should know it mamma,' Madge said. 'I am
sure I should know. Helen has been in peril and
sorrow—something we cannot understand.'
'You know, child. How?' Mrs. Churchill asked,
wondering how pretty childish Madge had such
revelations made to her.
I dreamed it mamma. I keep on &earning it.
He'en seems to speak to me every night; she always
looks weary and forlorn, and almost heait-broken, but
she is not dead. I always see her alive; if she were
dead t• he would tell me so.'
My dear Madge!' Mrs. Churchill exclaimed,
almost frigh'ened at the girl's intensity, what
frightful ideas;' and a terrible foreboding seized her
that her youngest daughter's health mentally and
bodily had reoeived a shock from which she would
never recover—first from her concealed love for Frank
Hatherleigh, and afterwards from the blow of his
terrible death in the very outset of her happiness.
She need not have feared. Madge was only an
impulsive girl full of romance and womanly sympathy,
and always thinking of her missing friend.

THE MITCHELSTOWN INQUIRY.-JUROB
AND CONSTABLE.

When the inquest at Mitchelstown was resumed on
Saturday Mr. Hanrahan, one of the jurors, went into
the box and stated with reference to the evidence of
Constable Leahy that on the occasion of the affray
he was trying to prevent a young girl from being
crushed. Leahy ordered him "out of the way," and
his answer was, I will; but have patience; you see
the way we are crammed." Mr. Morphy produced
the circular to the divisional magistrates respecting
police reporters. It directed that when reporters
were sent to a meeting a suitable place should be
secured for them in front or near, but not on the
platform, before the meeting commenced. District-
Insrector Lanyon and Constable Fenton afterwards
gave their version of what took place on the evening
of the affray.

Stourbridge, West Midlands, England, 1887-10-15

MORE ARRESTS.

Three more arrests were made on Monday in con-
nection with the War Office scandals. The arrested
persons were a M. Bayle, Madame de Courtreuil,
and Madame Ratazzi, who was recently imprisoned
for attempting to bribe M. Michelin, the President of
the Paris Municipal Council. An officer on the staff
of the Minister of War has been sent to the President
of the Republic to consult him on the subject of the
inquiry which is to begin forthwith. The scandal is
greater than ever—so great that a Paris correspon-
dent is informed that every step will be taken to make
the War Offiee investigation a secret matter. One
military clerk has already disappeared. Although
not connected with the Carfare' business, it has been
discovered that he has been selling vouchers for ob-
taining military railway passes.
The intimacy of General Thibaudin with Madame
Limouzin is now explained. When he escaped from
Germany, that lady, who lived at Fontenay-sons-Bois,
kept him for time hidden in a barn. On becoming
Minister of War the intimacy between the former
Colonel Comagny Thibaudin and Madame Limouzin
gave the latter the privilege of entering the War
Office when the pleased.
Some other grave scandals are known and spoken
of. A commanding officer now in Algeria is impli-
cated in these. The friends of General Boulanger
maintaintlaat the writing on his card had been changed,
so as to make it appear that Madame Limouzin was on
friendly terms with him. All that can be said is that
his term of office was an unfortunate one. He seems
to have turned the Ministry upside down, and to have
brought in new officials who were his friends, but
whose reputations were tarnished. It would of course
be impossible to reprint the reckless accusations of
dishonesty and treason now being made. In other
departments there are also scandals. A cashier of the
gendarmerie named R.nne has been rarrested at
Brussels for embezzlement and breach of military
trust. M. Miail, the clerk in charge of the lost pro-
perty department of the Prefecture of Police, is all o
accused of appropriating missing articles amounting to
a total value of .£l4OO.

The investigation of the French War Office scandal
will be submitted to a committee of five generals,
under the presidency of General Saussier. M. Wilson
has written to the Paris papers explaining his reasons
tot granting interviews to Madame Liracuzin, and
declaring that political and personal enmities are at
the bottom of the calumnies against him. The
charges, however, are repeated in an article in the
Paris, in which M. Wilson is accused of being the
head and front of the corruption that has come to
light. General Boulanger has been interviewed on
the subject, and declares that his dealings with
Madame Limouzin were very slight, and that be does
not know the missing General d'Audlau. Another
arrest is said to have been made.

EXTRAORDINARY SCENE AT
PLYMOUTH.

A remarkable scene was witnessed at the Plymouth
Barbican fish pier on Monday morning. It appears
that 240 packages of hake, containing from 2000 to
10,000 each, arrived fro.n St. Ives and Newlyn,
Cornwall, and as the auctioneers were about to dispose
of the consignment a large number of Plymouth
fishermen assembled on the outskirts of the crowd,
broke into the auction ring, and seizing the fish
threw them into the harbour. A scene of great ex-
citement resulted. While a number of persons in
small boats were busy gathering the fish, other boats
manned by local fishermen put off, and the fish were
again cast into the water. This spectacle was con-
tinued for some time, and the police at length arrived
and quieted what promised to be a serious disturb-
ance, for the fishermen had armed themselves with
sticks, and presented a most threatening aspect. They
complain ti at the fish having arrived by train escaped
pier dues which they have to pay on their fish being
taken into Cornwall; and that, moreover, the fish
having conic, by train, was not so fresh as theirs, but.
being sold first spoilt their market. The fishermen
held an indignation meeting on the subject, and
threatened extra.me steps should an attempt be made
after this to dispose of Cornish fish in the same
manner. The fish which arrived on Monday has
been lost, indeed it floated about the harbour all day.
The trawl .rs refused to go to sea until they get their
Lrievances remedied, and renewed disturbances
were feared unless strong measures shoed be taken
by the authorities.

POLITICS OF THE RECESS

MR. GLA.DSTONE ON IRELAND AND THE
EMPIRE.
In a correspondence with Captain M'Calmont,
M.P., in regard to a statement recently attributed to
Mr. Dillon, Mr. Gladstone states that be is not aware
of any desire to depart from the provisions of the
Irish Government Bill of 1886 in relation to the
defence of Ireland asa portion. of the Empire.

STARTLING STATEMENT BY AN M.P.
Addressing a meeting at Buckfastleigh on Saturday
evening, Mr. J. O'Connor, M.P. for South Tipperary,
declared that on his leaving prison in 1881 some Irish
officials sought, through the agency of informers, to
implicate him in an attempt to murder a judge, and
that the plan broke down because the officials and in-
formers disagreed.

MR. BALFOUR AND THE DUBLIN
CONSERVATIVES.
_

A special resolution, passed by the Dublin City and
County Conservative Working Men's Club, was on
Saturday forwarded to Mr. Balfour, Chief Secretary
for Ireland, pointing out that all loyal men see in the
present violent movements of the disloyal faction in
Ireland a repetition of those tactics by which the lives
of
_Earl Spencer and his colleagues were sought—in
the case of two of them with success, There are the
same brutal epithets, the same odious charges of cor-
ruption, the same savage imputations of murder, and
he same deadly hatred of officials, provocative of
their assassination. The club hopes Mr. Balfour will
not flinch from his duty nor from the loyal people of
Ireland because of the repetition of this murderous
malignity, and not, like Earl Spencer, give way to
such enemies of human government, and throw them
Home Rule as a carcase might be thrown to ravenous
wolves.

THE NEW WELSH NATIONAL COUNCIL,
Mr. Stuart Rendel, M.P., was on Saturday chosen
President of the newly-formed Welsh National
Council. Several members of the Council urged the

ELECTION DISTURBANCES.

According to the official accounts the disturbances
which took place at Plevna were led by a Bulgarian
emigrant muted Dr. Drumess. Several persons were
killed, and others received severe injuries. Dr. Dru-
meff, who took part in the last revolt at Rustchuk,
has been arrested. During the riots at Cattoviza 10
persons were killed or wounded, among the latter
being the Sub-Prefect. At Bahovitza also the rioting
was of a serious nature, and some people were killed
and others wounded. At Gabrova, and Altos disputes
occurred between the elector, but no serious disturb-
ance ensued. At Lovtcha, the birth-place of M.
Radoslavaff, about 150 persons belonging to the Ra-
doslavoff party attacked the polling booths and
destroyed the balloting-boxes, thereby rendering it
impossible to hold the election. No election took
place atTfaskeuy, in Roumelia, owing to a disagree-
ment between the voters regarding the appointment
of polling officers.

The official returns of the elections to the Bul-
garian Sobranje show that the number of voters was
greater than at any previous election. It is stated
that 107 deputies have been returned who have never
previously sat in Parliament. A telegram from &Aft
to Vienna says that 258 supporters of the Government
have been elected, and that 27 members of the Oppo-
sition parties have been retarned.

DEATH OF A RAILWAY MAGNATE.

We regret to announce that Mr. Grierson, general
manager of the Great Western Railway, has died at
Marlow after a severe illness of about a week's
duration. He was, it is understood, 60 years of age.
Mr. Grierson held a very high position in the railway
world and was greatly esteemed by a large number of
pirsonal friends in the railway services of the United
Kingdom, the Continent, and the Colonies, as well as
by every member of the numerous staff under his con-
trol. During his management most of the important
changes and improvements which have raised tI-.e
Great Western Railway to its present position and
rendered it a profitable property to its shareholders
have been carried out. Among these were the aban-
donment of the broad gauge over a portion of the
line and the working of most of the traffie
upon the narrow gauge system, the rebuild-
ing of Paddington Terminus and many other
stations, the construction of the Severn Tunnel, and
the adoption of the electric light between Paddington
and Westbourne-park. Mr. Grierson was well known
to the Queen and most of the members of the Royal
family, having on many important occasions taken
charge of her Majesty's special train during her
journeys over the Great Western Railway. At West-
minster Mr. Grierson's pleasant smile and agreeable
address were familiar to many members of the Legis-
lature, he having, as the representative of his com-
pany, passed much of his time in attending the Rail-
way Committees of the House of Commons during
recent years. Mr. Grierson in his administrative
capacity was in every way a model general manager,
and his loss will be deeply felt by the directorate and
the whole of the officials of the company. Mr. G
son, who attended the Italian Conference at Milan,
became seriously indisposed immediately after his
return from the Continent.

A SALT RING.

THERB have been steel rings, railway rings, wheat
rin,s, pork ringe, bnd what not in America. 'int
ad these combinatieni—whether they are calle
rings, or corners—are going to be capped by
grand innovation, a salt ring. American
ppanaopooelstier sstate that all arrangements are now completed
;or the formation of an immense salt pool, includ-
ing all the largest salt, manufacturers in the United
States. Delegates from all the large firms and suit
companies ix Michigan, Ohio, and New York have
met at Pittsburgh, wi,h the intention of forming the
National Salt Union, the object of the said union
being to keep up the price of salt, and thus to
compete successfully with foreign manufacturers.
As a result, it is believed that all the smaller con-
cerns not in the combination will be forced to the
wall. The company wilt be composed of sixty.
t 'iree companies in all—eleven at Pittsburgh, nine in
New York, thirty in Michigan, and thirteen in Ohio.
What a blessing it must be to live in a country
where the disposal of the simplest necessaries of
life may be monopolised by a few shrewd men of
business with a large capital at their back. It
seems to us of the Old Worid preposterous that ,
such things are possible, and it is scarcely credible
that the people of the New World will submit for
long to such commercial tyrannies. A readiest will •
surely cane.

TRIUMPH OF THE GOVERNMENT.

The elections in the provinces have resulted de.
oidedly in favour of the Government. Thirty members
of the Zankoff party have been returned. According
to the latest advice', the leaders of the Opposition
have not been returned.

The Greek and Massuiman elements took part in
the elections of Eastern Bournelia. In the course of
the demonstration on Sunday night, in front of the
residence of M. Stambouloff, a local politician made
a speech, in which he thanked the Government for
the liberty with which the elections had been carried
out, and declared that some of the diplomatic agents
who had been present could bear witness to the
absence of official interference. M. Stambouldf, in
reply, stated that the elections had resulted in favour
of the Government, excepting in some places wiiere
the votes of the electors had been purchaaed with
the gold of a foreign Power.

THE PAYMENT OF MEMBERS.

Mr. Chaees Fenwick, M.P., speaking at the Liberal
Club at Morpeth on Saturday, said that if the prin-
ciple of the payment of members of Parliament were
carried out in this country it would be to the benefit
of the nation at large, and it was preposterous to
think that it would be to the degradation of the mem-
bers themselves. In all countries of any status the
system was carried out; and why, he asked, should
England be the last to go in that direction? He was
of opinion that it ought to be made a test question,
and next session he hoped to be able to bring the ques-
tion before the House* •.- 71"

SHOCKING OUTRAGE.

A serious outrage is reported from Pentonville. It
is stated that a woman named Joan Craw n was for-
merly housekeeper at a house in which a gentleman
named Orminston used to live. She was, however,
discharged, and since then, being under the impres-
sion that Mr. Orminston was the cause of her dis-
missal, she has been in the habit of annoying him.
On Monday evening, about six o'clock, she went
to Mr. Ormiston's house in Claremont-square,
Pentonville, and knocked. On the door being
opened by the servant, she asked whether
she could see Mr. Orminston. The servant,
told Mr. Orminston, who went to the door, and told
the woman that he did not want to have anything to
do with her. Thereupon she became abusive, and took
from under her shawl a glass filled witn some liquid,
which she threw at Mr. Orminston. Some of the
fluid went over his face and olothes, and some of it
fell on the dress of the servant who was standing
near. The woman then ran away. Mr. Orminston's
face and head were burned, and be suffered great
pain. A doctor was called in, and found that he had
had a quantity of vitriol thrown over him. Some of
the liquid having gone into the; left eye, it is feared
that he will lose the sight of it. The police are
endeavouring to find the woman who threw the
vitriol.

'TOWg AFFRAY.

The inquest onthe bodies of the men killed in the
affray with the police at Mitchelstown was resumed
on Monday morning. The principal witness was Mr.
Condon, M.P., who deposed that when the police
tried to force their way through the thickest part of
the crowd he told the people to stand firm, other wise
the meeting might have been broken up. He got off
the platform, and did all he could to prevent a col-
lision between the people:and the police. Mr. Morphy
cross examined the witness as to whether he had been
staying in Mitcheletown in connection with the Plan
of Campaign, and Mr. Condon declined to answer.
He also declined to say whether he had received
any money from the Kingston tenantry. Mr. Har-
rington intimated his intention to ask the jury for a
verdict of wilful murder against County-Inspector
Brownrigg and also against the five policemen who had
fired from the barracks.

TEE GENERAL UNDER ARREST FOR
SWINDLING.

General Caffarel and two supposed accomplices,
Madame Limousin and a man named Lorentz, have
been arrested on the charge of swindling. The ap-
prehension of the General has created considerable
excitement in France. It is said that he has been in
pecuniary difficulties for years past, and was not a
proper person to be made Deputy Chief of the Staff.
He is suspected of using his high position to obtain
money by promising decorations. The General, who
was at first confined in a military prison in Paris, has
been banded over to the civil authorities, and the
case againa him is to be conducted by the Public
Prosecutor.

WINTRY RELTERR.

The weather was very cold on Tuesday over the
whole country, and snow fell in several parts of Sc.)t-
larri and the north of England. There was a keen
northerly wind in the British Islands, owing to our
being situated in the rear of a large cyclonic disturb-
ance, the centre of which was on Tuesday morning
clos.e to Fan, on the Danish coast, where the ban,-
meter was below 29in. Under the influence of this
di,turbance the wind was blowing with hurricane
force at the Helder and over the North Sea, and a
fresh gale wiz reported from Spurn Head, on our
east coast. This storm was influencing the weather
in England as early as Sunday, when its centre was
over the Bay of Biscay; it subsequently passed over
the north of France and Belgium, and occasioned
the disturbed weather which was generally ex
-
experienced in Great Britain on Monday. Very
low temperature occurred in different districts
of the country on Tuesday morning. At Parsons-
town, in King's County, Ireland, the shade
thermometer registered 3ldeg., whilst in several parts
of Scotland and England the thermometer fell to
within a degree or so of the freezing point. The area
of greatest cold was in the north and east. In London
the thermometer, in the shade, on Tuesday morning
registered 33deg., whilst on the grass, open to the sky,
it fell to 24deg. During the greater part of the day
the weather was fine and bright over England, but
still somewhat squally. In London the sun shone
almost uninterruptedly, but the air was very chilly,
and the thermometer did not exceed 48deg. through-
out the day.
Severe storms of hail and snow swept over Cheshire
on Tuesoay, and the outlook was very wintry, the hills
being covered with snow. In the valleys it melted as
it fell. Such bitterly cold weather has not been ex-
perienced Po early in October. The snow and hail
storms were preceded by two days of cold, raw, foggy
weather.

The weather has been very severe in Shropshire.
Shrewsbury was visited on Tuesday by two snow-
storms, the first occurring early in the morning,
when large flakes fell for a considerable time. The
second, in the evening, was accompanied by rain, and
the atmosphere was intensely cold. The Wrekin
and other hills in the country were thickly covered
with snow. _

In North Warwickshire snow fell for a short time
in various parts of the country on Tuesday, the cold
at night being intense.
In Cumberland and Westmoreland the h;gher hills
are covered with snow, and in the Alston district the
fall has been heavy. Snow has made its appearance
a month earlier this year than last, and the outlook
for farmers who have not carried more than two-
thirds their usual quantity of hay is gloomy.
There was a heavy fall of snow in Wrexham and
other parts of North Wales on Tuesday morning.
There, the weather has been bitterly cold, the wind
blowing from the east and north-east.
Snow fell on Tuesday, for the first time this seasofi,
on the York.hire Wold Hills.

Early on Wednesday morning snow fell for a shorl
time in London.

members, and in that case it is lighlj -rob'abiZ-dc-
cording to his own statement, that Mr. Gladstone
would not have deAroyed the Liberal party, and
destroyed the unity of the three kingdoms.
(Hear, hear, and lauv.hter.) Well, Mr. Glad-
stone says now that you must not go behind
the ballot-box, and that the representation in Parlia-
ment must be taken to be the exact and proper ex-
pression of the opinion of the people, but you do not
find that this principle has prevented Mr. Gladstone
from questioning pretty sharply the mandate of the
majority which is at present opposed to him in the
House of Commons. We, therefore, feel justified in
asking that the votes of the Irish members shall be
weighed as well as counted, and in any case I call
public attention to the fact that such a majority as
that to which they have referred, whether it is fairly
represented in Parliament or not, cannot be neglected
in the settlement of a question in which it has a vital
interest.

LORD SPENCER ON WELSH
ED UCaTION.

On the invitation of Lord Aberdare, Earl Spencer
the other morning addressed a gathering of the
students at Aberdare University College. The chair
was taken by Mr. Stuart Rendel, M.P., who was
supported by Mr. Bowen Rowlands, M.P., Lieut.-
Colonel Pryce, Principal Edwards, Mr A. C. Hum-
phreys Owens, &c. Lord Spencer said he was fortu-
nate in being, in conjunction with Mr. Mundella in
1880, chiefly responsible for the educational policy of
the Government of that day. They soon found that
there were great demands for improved facilities for
education in tho Principality of Wales. They gave
great attention to this subject. The foundation of
that college was a proof of how dearly Welsh people
love education. The Act that was passed in 1870,
ander the auspices of his late friend Mr. Forster, wee
one of the most beneficent acts that was ever passed
by the Imperial Legislature sitting in Westminster.
Ihe course adopted of giving a grant for higher edu-
cation in Wales had been amply justified, fcr while
from 1881 to 1883 there were very little more than
100 students of University education in Lampeter and
Aberystwitb, there were now at Aberystwitb, Bangor,
Cardiff, and Lampeter, no fewer than 580 students of
lAigher education.
