A CHANGE IN THE PROGRAMME.

A remarkable change is noticeable in
Che tone of the anti Constitution papers
Of California toward Kearney. Before
the Constitutional election, up to the
time the agitator was silenced by the
golden persuasives of the corporations,
the anti Constitution papers and stump.
ers denounced him as "bloviating
ignoramus," "blatant blatherskite, u
"communistic cut throat" in short,
pictured him as an incarnate fiend, the
embodiment of everything loathsome,
despicable and detestible. But they
have experienced change in their re-
lations to the sand lot orator. They
how look at him through different
colored spectacles from those used be-
fore the election, and see in him much
to admire. The cause of this change is
found in Kearney's opposition to the
New Constitution party. Owing proba--
bly, to coin influences, he denounced all
who voted for the new Constitution
outside the ranks of the w. p. c.. as
honorable bilks," and counseled the
workingmen not to affiliate with them
N organizing the new party. He even
hrazenly arrogated to himself and his
immediate followers, in a speech ON the
sand lots, the credit of carrying the
new Constitution, in the face of the
fact, as shown by the returns, that
there was a majority against the
new Constitution in nearly every So
called stronghold of the w. p. C. in
the State. This course was. probably
suggested to Keamey by those who
supply him with the sinews of war.
AT any rate. it meets the approval of
those who opposed the new Constitu--
tion, and their organs to-day laud as a
hero the man they denounced as a
knave month ago. They condemn
the Chronicle for having brought him
prominently before the public, by pub
Fishing his harangues, yet to-day, with
that inconsistence for which politicians
are noted, cause to be published in
che daily papers, which opposed the
new Constitution, every sentence he
alters. at. the sand lots or. at the meet
hgs. of ward clubs against the new
party. The organs now ring the
changes on the epithets which Kearney
spAlies to the leaders of the New Con-
stitution party; but few weeks ago
His expressive phrases against the
monopclies, and cent per cent. money
lenders never found place in their
columns. Evidently there is a change
IN the programme so far as it relates to-
Kearney, and the jackass Is clothed in
q lions skin and presents,f as agenuine
king Of the forest by the monopoly
organs to the dear peopley who are ex-
peoted to be deceived by t9isgpiss.

Every possible obstacle to the House
Free Coinage bill will be made in the
Senate to delay or prevent action on it
this session. There is very little
doubt, however, that majority of the
Senate will insist upon bringing it to a
final vote in some shape before Con-
gress adjourns, even if the session has
to be prolonged in order to afford time
for its consideration. Several inffuen-
tial and well-informed Republicans,
who were strongly opposed to this bill
in its original form, express an opiraon
that the modified measure will pass the
Senate, and that the President will ap-
prove it.

for the lawyers in his Cabinet to devote
little attention to his education. OF
course lawless people must be punished
if they NEEDLE with other people, en-
gagged in lawful business; but between
lawless interference with lawful bust
ness and rebellion" there is gulf into
which Presidents should not rashly
plunge at the prayer of casual interview

NEW York, June 5.-The large hall of
Cooper Union was crowded last evening at
the Irish Catholic Colonization meeting
Upon the platform were Judge Brady, John
Kelly, Bishops Spalding and Ireland. and
many of the city clergymen. Judge Brady
said IRISH Catholic colonization is not only
feasible, but is one OF the grandost move
ments that has been started in long time.
1t has no political significance, but seeks to
establish homes on the great prairies where
settlers can add to the greatness of their
adopted country.
Within thirty years, said Bishop Ireland
over three million people have come to
America from Ireland and have generally
remained in the large cities. Ownership of
the soil gives power and influence and will
plant the Irish people firmly in America.
We do not propose to do anything for
thriftless men or for the absolutely desti-
tute, but to aid worthy men of moderate
means. The capital stock of the organiza-
tion is 100000.
When it is all paid for we will buy so, 900
acres of land at a low price and sell it at
cost to the colonistst would mold the land
as security and in addition to paying the
interest the coloniSts will be required to
improve ten or twenty acres each year
John Kelly made short speech in which

MORNING FIRE.
Damage Done to the Amount of
100000.

A few minutes before o'clock this
morning fire, which had already gained
considerable headway was discovered in
the southeast cornerof the first floor of Post
& Co.'S railway supply store, situated on
the southwest corner of Pearl and Elm
streets, and after some delay in turning on
the alarm the Department were summoned
from Box 20, Pearl and Plum streets. By
the time the first relay Of engines had
reach the scene the fire had spread through
the east half of the first floor and had
leapcd up the open hatchway to the fifth
floor and roof and enveloped the entire
upper portion of the building in flames. A
general alarm was then sounded, but the
flames increased rapidly and for an hour
resisted the combined efforts of the De-
partment, and over an hour elapsed before
theDut was sounded.
Theroe was entirely destroyed. and the
upper story Of the building, with nearly
every thing which it contained, is a mass of
ruins. The first floor, with nearly all of
the machinery and goods upon it, were al
most entirely destroyed, while the third
and fourth floor escaped uninjured, except
by the large amount of water with which
the building is soaked. The first floor is
filled with machinery and supplies for sale;
the second is used for storage and finishing;
the third is used for brass finishing; the
fourth is the factory of the Bell telephone,
and the fifth is a lamp factory.
Nearly all the goods are more or less in
jured either by fire or water and the entire
loss of goods and machinery is estimated
by the proprietors at $4,000. Upon this
they have an insurance of $85, 900 in thirty
five different companies, both home and
foreign.

Miss Florence Melville was requested to
come to the front and address the meet
ing She was announced by the private
watchman of the Atlantic Garden, who
stated that she had acted in a very dis
orderly manner at that place yester-
day afternoon, calling everybody vile
names, and mashed the plug hat
of a gentleman down over his ears. Miss
Melville then arose and spoke as follows:
Gentlemen of the Court as to calling any
man out of his name | swear to my God
above that / never did any such thing in
my life; it's against my principles, and,
gentlemen, that private watchman tells a
lie, and, gentlemen, -" Shut up; sit

of petit larceny was put against him
although the watch was worth about $500
The Judge gave him thirty days and $20(
fine. This was quick work, the theft, arrest
and commitment to the Workhouse all be-
ing done inside of an hour.
