IRELAND'S DISTRESS.

Parnell and Dillon in New York.
New YORK. Jan. 3.-Messrs. Parnell and
Dillon received delegation from Boston TO-DAY
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. They also recelv-
ed the men of County Meath, who presenitedu
thanking those present for their kindness ana
consideration in welcoming him and his COM
panion to this country and he regarded IL as
extremely fitting that the exiles of Meath
should take so deep an interest I'm the pfeseIt
great movement. Since his friends had al
luded to the history of Meath he would allude
for moment to more recent politics in Meath.
The place mentioned presented remal able
spectacle among his Irish constituents Tor
steadfastness; fact that might be OF interest,"
to native born Americans who considered emf
grafton a remedy for all sorts of evils He
would say, however, that Meath, though the
richest county in ireland, her residents had
nevertheless been brought to point OF great
suffering. In regard to the land system OF
Ireland and America, he pointed out the fact
that the system here was entirely different
from that at home. In Ireland monopollsts
had adopted system of rents, while mere the
railway corporation system OF sales was Ill
vogue but he would not undertake to point
out expediency at present, or the right OF
wrong Of large grants being made to railway
corporations After dwelling a little time on
the consideration of the sufferings OF the irish
people, Mr. Parnell said that he was proud to
represent the County of Meath, and would DO
"a
people, which he fattered himself he now pos
sessed.
John Boyle O'Reilly of Boston presented
the address of the people from Meath today to
Mr.. Parnell.
Among those invited to occupy seats on the
platform but few were present. Among these
were Judges Gildersleeve aud Alker Thurlow
Weed, VIM E. Robinson, Stephen j. Meaney
and members of the committee OF arrange
ments. A committee went to the Fifth
Avenue Hotel and escorted Parnell and Dill
lon to the Garden. Immediately on their ar
rival cheer was raised at the door which
spread along the building like wildfre, the au-
dience going frantic with excitement Men
shouted themselves hoarse, ladies tiourlshed
handkerchiefs the band struck up Aud Lang
Syne, and it was some time before the excite
ment subsidized.
Seldom has such large crowd OF Irish
Americans gathered together as assembled to-
night in Madison Square Garden to tender a
public welcome to Charles Stewart Parnell.
The crowd was mixed one. There was a
sprinkling of the political element and many
ladies occupied seats in front of the balconies
and in the ellipse. 1t is estimated that from
5000 to 5000 people were present.

NON-COMMITTAL.

Gov. Garcelon Don't Know What He Shall
Do In Consequence of the Courts
Opinion.
VAUDEVILLE, Jan. 4-Governor Garceloa
spent Sabbath in this town. He was called
upon this evening by the agent of the Asso.
ciated Press and informed that the OPINION OF
Supreme Judges had been printed in full in
the Portland Sunday Times. The reporter
then asked the Governor if he had received
the opinion of the cours, to which he replied
he had not; that he had not been in Augusta
since "A o'clock Saturday afternoon. The
reporter informed him of the general points as
expressed in the opinion Of the court. He
was asked if he should recall those certificates
which he had issued and which now under
the opinion of the court appear to have been
illegally issued.
Answer-'I have no authority for knowing
the opinion of the court and cannot tell what
I shall de-"
Reporter-It is true that Capt. Lewis Voter
of Pennington has returned to you his certifi-
cate of election and declined to serve under
the same?
Answer-"I have not received it and don't
know anything about it,"
Reporter-Do you apprehend any violence
at the Inauguration of the Legislature?
Answer-"I have no means of knowing. L
do not think the people of Maine are foolish
enough to resort to violence.

THE UTES.

Gen. Hatch on His Way With a Lot Of
Prisoners.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Ex-Gov. Hunt of
Colorado, now here, has received the following
telegram:
"ADAMosA, Col, Jah. 2.
Gen. Hatch left Lake City this morning
with Jack Sowarick, Ouray, Joheta, Uncle
Sam and nine other Uncompahgre Utes, also
Douglas and few prisoners; Bucksk1n
Charlie and one other Southern Ute all coming
via Saguache.
Signed by ALVA ADAMS.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.--Secretary Schurz re-
ceiyed the following to-day from Gen. Hatch:
ALAMosA, Col, Jan. 3.
The White River Utes who were with Ouray
on the 24th ult. are not in his power neither
have they been since the Goth. The Indians
sent out by way of Saguache are Ouray and
Wash Charlie, Uncompahgress, JACK Somer-
wick and Uncle Sam Charlie, White River
Utes, and Coputche Camatche Alexandra,
Wimmanacha, Aquila and Buckskin Charlie
of the muaches. They are expected here ON
the 9th. Ouray was requested to keep the In
dams YOU refer to but had not the power. L
am of the opinion that the Indians when as
sured by yovrself that there is no other way to
avoid destruction will decide to turn over the
prisoners The promise made by them that
they would turn over those demanded should
be insisted upon to the last man. AS long as
these Indians are on our hands the agency at
Los Pnos is secure. Ouray came out at his
own request and brought his wife with him. L
think it advisable to have them all before you
at Washington or such point as you may de-
signate.
(Signed) HATCH,
Commissioner.
The Indians referred to in this despatch
whom Ouray could not bring with him are
Chief Douglas, his son and four others. These
Indians were offered for surrender, but Gen.
Hatch declined to accept them unless the re-
manning guilty parties were also surrendered
at the same time.

text. Republicans and those Democrats
who have disfavored the counting out
are highly pleased with the de-
cisions of the court, which they regard as con-
elusive of the merits of the case, and as call
ing for the surrender of the counted in certifi-
Gates. Fusionists have been correspondingly
depressed and have made little public COM
ment on the opinion. Some of them say 1t
will not affect the programme at Augusta, but
the genera, feeling seems to be that such an
authoritative statement OF the law must nave
strong effect upon all parties. Leading law
yers here say that it will not only be compe-
tent for the Governor to issue new summenss
to the persons really elected under the law as
laid down by the court, but that it is the duty
of any department thus to correct errors OF I'M
providence at the earliest possible date. 1t IS
believed this view would be fully sustained by
the Supreme Court

The Steal.
What Ellis and Pendleton Think Of It

A correspondent of the Boston Traveller who
has been interviewing prominent men in
Washington on the Maine steal, asked Demo-
cratic Congressman Ellis what he thought Of
the matter.
81 have thought but little of the matter"
replied Mr.. Ellis. az am unfamiliar with the
constitution and Jaws of Maine, and have not
seen the evidence upon which the Governor
and Council have acted and have, therefore,
no matured opinion upon the question. Gen.
orally, / may say, however, that the belief ex-
lists in my mind that the Republicans carried
the State and the Legislature by decided
vote of the people. Slight errors of returning
officers the failure to comply with mere direct
DRY regulations and strained application OF
technicalities, should not be invoked to over
throw the popular will, which in republics is
the supreme law Election laws have for their
object the true Interpretation of the popular
will. They never were intended to defeat and
thwart it. If the State authorities have simp-
ly and fairly obeyed an existing law in throw
ing out returns and changing results, they are
right and should be sustained. If they have
perverted the law, for partisan purposes have
seized upon the mere failure of election officers
to comply with directory statutes through care
lessness and ignorance, and have overthrown
the will of the people in Maine, then they are
wrong, wholly, outrageously wrong; and that
wrong should be righted."
Senator Pendleton, of Ohio, who has been
standing Western Presidential candidate on
the Democratic side since 1868, while refusing
to talk for publication on the subject, expressed
the opinion privately that Gov. Garcelon had
made grand mistake.
''While he may be technically right" said
Mr. Pendleton, ''and even acting in obedience
to the laws and constitution of Maine, his &C.
ton has resulted in the Acknowledgement OF
number of the citizens of that State. Neither
the public sentiment of the State or that of the
Union will sustain any officer in any such posi-
ton. Policy alone should have dictated an
other course. This will react upon tie Demo-
cratic party everywhere. 1t is a blunder.

the strict letter of tho law. and that if he has
erred in that way only it is no serious oitense.
But that is not the case. In one instance
name is misspelled on few votes, ana they
are not counted for the person for whom tney
are intended for that would elect Republl-
can. His competitors name is also mlsspelled
on a few votes, and If they, too, were rejected
the Republican would still be elected. 80 the
votes for the Democratic candidate are counted,
and those for the Republican pronounced
"fatally defective" so II IS no tecnhlcailly III
this case, but sneaking fraud. In another
case-the town of Webster-the certlhcate OF
the selectmen was rejected for the alleged rea
son that the three names were all signed py
one person. But the three selectmen nave
since made affidavit that they all signed It,
What then, was the technical objection? In
another case that OF Cherryfeld, the pretended
reason for throwing out the returns Is thaL one
of the seleetmen was an AMEN. now aiu tne
Governor know that? Certainly 1t did not
annear on the face of the returns. Iechnl-
caily they were all right, and legally thoy
were also right, for the law is that the acts OF
a de facto officer are valid when they concern
the public or the rights of third persons SO IN
several other cases where the Governor anu
Council refuses to grant certificates to RepuD-
licans who had been elected, there was no pre-
tence of even d technical defect in the returns
They had availed themselves of all the technl-
cal objections they could discover, and then
lacking several of a fusionist majority, they
counted QUIZ WlLnUuC tNGu ~
show for it, enough Republicans to give them
the desired majority. The pretense, therefore,
of many Democratic papers that Coy. Garce-
celon has complied with the letter OF the law
is deceptive and dishonest. His action is part
of grand conspiracy conceived and planned
by ADLER men than he, for purposes far more
important than tho Governorship OF the State
of Maine. Such conspiracy had too many
parties to it for it long to be kept concealed.
Like the Flu Klux in the South, when they
begin to tell upon each other there Will be
scramble for pre- cedence in exposing the infa-
nous plot The blanks sent out from the State
Department were purposely prepared so as to
lead unsuspecting town officers to make tech
nical mistakes. Who planned that fraud?
Who advised the town officers, where the fu-
sionists were in a majority, how to avoid all
mistakes in their returns? Answers to all these
questions will doubtless be given ere long, and
il several of the chief consprators do not find
themselves behind prison bars within a few
weeks or months, then there is no justice in
the State of Maine. z. 7.

The Failure of the Grocers' Bank.

The Failure of the Grocers' Bank.
NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-Great excitement still
continues among the creditors and deposltors
of the broken Grocers' Bank. Stephen v.
White receiver, and his counsel have been
present since early in the morning endeavoring
to collect together the assets. Mr.. White said
he had already deposited $4,000, and that
the remaining assets more that covered the
claims of creditors and depositors. The only
losers will be the stockholders. He believed
the bank was suffering largely from forged
paper in connection with j. Lloyd Hoigh's in
debtedness.
Arrest of Merchant on a Serious Charge
Detective Sampson of the United States
Sub-Treasury to-day arrested Edwin r. Kirk,
an old New York merchant who is charged
with having in his possession $4,000 registered
United States bond of the $40 issue which, a.
alleged, was stolen from the executors estate
of the late P x. Richards of Philadelphia. He
was taken before United States Commissioner
Shields, who held him in $4,000 bail for ex-
rmination Mr.. Kirk says he took the note as
security for the payment of two notes, and did
not know it was stolen. He promised to pro-
duce the man from whom he got the bond.
The name of Richards has been erased from
the bond and that of Charles X. Gilbertson
inserted The latter is believed to be myth,
as the police cannot find any person of that
name.
