Work on the Land Bill


LONDON, June In the Commons
in Committee on the l.'nl Bill last
evening hy an amendment moved by
the Attorney General, lrrland'S dclnI-
ton OF fair rent WAS Omii;el from the
clause.
An amendment offered By Lord Rus.
sell, requiring the court - have rrgarh
in fixing statutory rents to the interests
of both landlord and tenant, WAS ac-
cepted by the government and carried,
Lord Russell's amendment disposes OF
the most diSputable point in the 1th
clause.
Gladstone yesterday somewhat modi-
fled his previous declaration concerning
the inviola6ility OF leases by the state
ment that some relief should he given To
lease holders who are sub bjected to undue
pressure. How this is to he done is re.
served for future consideration. Glad
stone favored uuashing unjust leases
while maintaining that they coa'I not
be revised. This concession saved an
obstructive debate which the Irish mem
bers seemed inclined to raise.
The Land BIll IN the Il House Of Lords.
LONDON, July LIN the House Oi
Lords to-day the Duke Of Argvlle, Lord
Privy Seal, called attention to the Bcss.
borough Commission, and denounced 1t
as a biased Commission. He said they
entered upon their task with a ioregonc
conclusion upon the three F.'s, and
their report creates a wholly erroneous
impression in regard to tie relations
between the landlords and tenants.
The commissioners never really siltrd
the facts, which would dispcl many as
sertiOns OF witnesses. The Earl OF
BessbOrough defended the commission
and condemned the Duke OF Argyle's
attack. The Marquis OF Iansdowne,
Liberal, said, as an Irish landlord, he
conCurred with the Duke OF Argyle in
thinking the report OF the commission
was founded on hastily taken evidences,
Lord Salisbury, Conservative, said he
trusted the doctrines laid Gown
bv the commission would not he en-
dorsed by the legislature. The Earl Of
Granville, Foreign Secretary, pointed
out that the Duke OF Argyle had care
fully refrained from referring to the
Land bill, but Lord Salisbury could not
restrain himself from having a fling AT
the measure. lie said he regretted the
tone Lord Salisbury had adopted, be.
cause it was not encouraging tO the
House when it considered the spirit in
which he is likely 10 approach the bill.
The subject was then dropped.

CHICAGO.
Business Generally Good.

Chicago, July 1.-The weather this
week has been cool ant good for busi-
ness, but rather slow for crops. The
bank clearings keep up well and are
fair index to the growth OF trade and
the rapid strides which the city is max
ing as a commercial center. The earn.
ings for the five days OF the week are
nearly six million dollars greater
than for the entire correspond.
ing week OF last year, amounting
to $50 100000 for the six months
ending yesterday. The clearngs exceed
those of the same time in 1886 by thirty
five millions, record never before
equaled. The amount of building
going on is so great that contractors are
constantly in fear o. strike by the la.
borers, not that the latter are undergrad,
but that they are conscious OF the tact
that they control the situation and can
ask their own rates. This being the
case efforts are Icing mad. To swell
the number ol artisans, and brlcklayefS
and stone masons are invited hither,
with the promise Of good wages and i'm
mediate work. Contractors say there
are really too few workmen to build
what is already projected, and new
building schemes are constantly spring
ing up and calling for more help.
Eastern exchange is weak, to-day sell
ing at $3.50 per 81 900 discount. Cur
rency is scarce and is being ordered
from New York. Money is wanted
badly and rates are firm at to per
cent. on call and 8 to per cent. on
time, with gilt.edged security. Local
securities are very firm and generally
rising. City fours rose TO l00?
Groceries are moderated Y active sugars
rather easier, coifees firm and oats,
rye and syrups quiet and unchanged.
The fruit trade is steadily increasing,
and prices are stiff for fresh and dried
dairy products, which are generally
pretty firm, but cheese weakens under
heavier receipts.
On change there was steady feeling,
with prices for wheat tending to lower
point, and corn and oats are firm, with
an upward tendency. Pork is easy,
without life or movement, and lard is
much firmer with a hardening, especi-
ally noticeable in cash and nearer op-

MOLLY MAGUIRES.
A Gang Evidently Organized at
Dunbar, Pa. - A Clue to
HeaIey's Murderers.

UNIoSTowS, PA. July 1.-The latest
from Dunbar shows that an organized
band of Molly Maguires exists there.
concealed under the cognomen OF the
Ancient Order OF Hibernians. Their
lodge is in the same building where Pat
McFarland's saloon was, who was re-
iused a license, and who was known to
he a bitter enemy OF Healey. HeaIey
had had trouble with the priest
who upheld Mcfarland in the saloon
business, and he is blamed for the part
he took in the matter, and ID SAID by
prominent men at Dunbar TO have been
in the confidence OF the Hibernians,
and TO have advocated extreme meas
ures with Healey. The detectives Il tv'
their ewes on two men, OF whom the toll
lowing is known: They were former EN-
ployes OF the furnace, and both are HI
bernians and supposed Mollies. they
we're in the habit OF getting drunk ana
neglecting their work. Healey, becom'
ing indignant at their conduct, dis
charged them. They swore to get even
and threatened to shoot him. healeY
detied them. This was several weeks
ago. One OF the men has since lett this
county. 4 few evenings ago strange
man went to Healey's house, evidently
on the outlook Tor him. HeaIey was
out and he asked a man by the name OF
Mcdowell standing near by, Are you
friend OF Healey's?" Upon Mcdowell
replying "Yes," the man called him in
sultiDg names, whereupon Mcdowell
knocked him down. Afterwards a
man by the name OF Wilson
Martin overheard another stranger at
the depot tell the man vino had insult
ed Mcdowell: 'If had been ordered
to hunt for Healey and kill him and
that fellow had struck me, wouId have
had my revolver ready and killed him
mighty quick The man replied, Il
will have him yet This is tine clue
the detectives are working on now.
Four men who answer the description
OF the suspected parties are under sur.
veillauce and will probably be arrested
tomorrow.
Nothing can describe the sensation
and horror this daring and frighttul
murder has occasioned. The whole
place is thrown into CONSERVATION and

Most Exciting Race Known In college
Boating.
NEW LONDON, Conn, July 1.-The
story of to.day's race is chapter OF de-
lay and disappointment, followed by a
contest more splendid than was ever
before seen in college racing. The race
which was Tor o'clock, was postponed
on account of the heavy sea until
6 O'Clock. The Harvards was
the first to appear, quickly followed
by Yale. The former was stopped by the
referee and given the necessary instrnc-
tious, and Immediately afterward pad
died over to her position on the mesh,
and was soon joined by Yale. AS the
two crews assigned themselves Tor the
word, glance showed the Gales' supe'
rior physical development. In moment
the referee made ready to give the word,
and almost instantly Yale flew through
the water as though sprung from bow,
only to be recalled at the Iulrq stroke
to her original position, amid the jeers
of the Harvard men. At $50 the
start was made, Harvard having the adj
vantage, but al the end of the first two
hundred yards Yale had lead OF half a
length, which was increased to length
and a hxlf when the half mile point
was reached. Harvard now bent TO
her oars and by squirt after squirt soon
got on even terms and passed the mile
flag length ahead. At the Navy yard
the boats seemed on even terms again.
Yale now got her reserve power into
the work and slowly but surely
was gaming the lead, until at the two
and a half mile buoy ali the crew could
see Harvard a length and half in the
rear, and at the end OF the third mile
Yale had an advantage OF two
lengths. Thence to the finish,
though squirting frequently, she
could not gain an inch more Oh the Har.
ward, who time ami again responded to
the encouragement of their friend.
fhe scene now was one that has had no
parallel in the history OF college boat.
Ing at New London. Yale strug.
slei for a greater lead, and
Harvard to cut it down, and thus
squirt answering squirt, the two crossed
the line in the same relative positions
that had been maintained for nearly a
mile, Yale leading by two lengths.
Time of Yale: First mile, $40; second,
1880; third. lS:40; course, 22:l3.
Harvard, first mile, 5:25, second
1889, third l6:45, course 22:l9.
In the evening the Yale men cele-
brated the victory by escOrting the crew
to the Crocke- House in procession,
singing and cheering as they marched.

Business Quiet and Tending Down
ward.
New York, July l.-Business is quiet
in all departments, rs was expected in
the foreign trade of the port, both in
imports and exports, as compared with
the corresponding period OF 1880. The
aggregate falling OIL is so small, as com
pared with the figures Of the commerce
OF the country as a whole, as not to ex-
cite much attention or alarm.
Altogether the reports as to
the crops throughout the country
are encouraging, indicating that they
cannot be much less than those OF last
year notwithstanding all the unfavorable
conditions to be contended with.
The dry goods trade is nearly over for
the season, and most OF the houses done
good business. The houses which
were overstocked have generally work.
ed off their goods without loss. Cotton
goods are still in price and seem to be
advancing. A lively fall trade is look
ed for.
The wool market has been fairly &C.
tive at previous rates, with slightly
hardening tendency, but without indi-
cations Of boom in prices. At the
seaboard prices are relatively lower
than in the country.
In Brazil the coffee market is firm on
a moderate demand, and importatiOns
are chiefly by jo5bers to meet the
wants OF the distributing trade. Oi late,
animation has subsided. Including
the new crop OF over five million bags,
it is estimated the supply will be S.CO0,-
600 bags, and in view OF this vast guam
tity the market remains surprisingly
firm. Large operators are cautious and
realize on the present prices. Mild col
fees are more active. There is nothing
special to note in the tea trade. There
is a quiet market for raw sugar, and
holders to effect sales are compelled to
make concessions. Refined is a trtle
easier and in fair demand
