pleased.

LONDON, February 19.-Just before the
House of Commons adjourned last night,
and when most Of the reporters had left,
the Speaker said he had considered the
various questions and suggestions ad-
dressed to him, and had framed new rules
In lieu of those announced on Thursday
last, which he trusted would meet the views
Of the Home Rulers, as follows:
That In committee on any urgent bill, or
In the stage known as consideration of the
bill as amended, Minister can move that
the remaining clauses and any amendments
or new clauses standing on the notice pa
per shall after o certain day or hour be
forthwith declared urgent, and such motion
By Minister shall forthwith be put, but
shall not be decided afirmatiyely unless
voted by two to one majority.
This seems to meet the Conservative OBJ
jections.
The Marquis of Harrington, Secretary of
State for India, on behalf of Mr.. Gladstone,
gave the necessary notice Of motion, such

patriots, for having formed an alliance with
Henri Rochefort and other Clericsls.
The Press Association says 1t understands
that the English Cabinet and the Boer Gov
ernment are and have been several days
past discussing the terms of peace proposed
by the latter, and 1t is believed this accounts
for General Sir Evelyn Woods advance be-
ing unopposed.

LETTER FROM JEFFERSON COUN.

The Planters Behind TIme-Searcity
OF Labor and Bad WeaIher-Very
Little Damage TO Oats from the
Freeze-The Condition of the
Fences-A Fence Law Needed.

MONTICELLO, JEFFERSON COUNTY, FLA, Feb
ruary l9.-Editor Morning Nelrs: The farming
interest in this section is badly behind time
caused by scarcity Of labor and prolonged
bad weather generally. The past week, how
ever, has been quite pleasant, and the young
leaves of the wild cherry and yard shrubbery,
as well as the budding OF the forest oak, in
dicate the near approach Of spring or seed
time. and yet the fencing is not repaired nor
the lands cleaned of for the plough Sugar
cane and sweet potatoes in many instances are
yet undisturbei from their winter quarters.
Garden truck is about the only thing planted.
The freeze did but little damage to the Oat crop
here. because there was only a small area sown
at that time. But few farmers have labor
enough and had to pay hlgh rate to con-
troll them, and then many Of them are in
feriOr and trifiing. majority or the best labor
having gone to the railroad and turpeBtine
farms l fear bresdstuffs will be scarce the
next season and command high prices. Agri-
culture and stock cannot grow up together,
and but few farmers Gf any can comply with
the statute in regard TO fencing. As the law
now exists it is all in the protection OF bad
stock to the detriment and loss OF tue farmer.

many instead Of the few, it will make reason

AUDACIOUS LYNCHERs
Hang the La Praede MurdereFs from
the Court House Windows The
Tennessee Senate Condemns the
Mob.

CINCINNATI, February 19.-Telegrams
from Springfield, TenR., represent that
troops were present for the protection of
of the alleged La Praede murderers on
trial there, and that they gave parade in
the court house yesterday before dark.
That after dark furious thunder storm
came on, and fears Of the prisoners
being lynched then vanished. A night
session was held to finish the trial.
Judge Stark gave his charge to the jury,
after which the Sheriff proceeded with the
prisoners, JAS Higgins, Dock Mallory, Lou
Thweatt, Robt ThWeatt and Jas. Elder, to
the jail. A mob of about two hundred
pressed upon the Sheriff, took the prisoners,
closed the court house and its grounds, sta
toned strong picket around them and
hung the five negro prisoners from the Sec
ond story windows of the court house.
The onset of the mob was from without,
aud was so sudden and boisterous, accom-.
panied by firing pistols and guns In the air,
as to terrify the spectators in the court
rooms, who jumped from the windows and
fastened from the scene.
Murphy and Duffy, the two charged with
completely in the murder, having been re-
leased on Thursday, had returned
to their old stamping ground, which
is thought to have precipitated
the action of the mob. The mob are after
them. and it is believed they will be
lynched not later than tonight. The
mob numbered two hundred we'll l-armed
men, who came in from four direc-
tions on horseback, and dispersed
Ia the same manner. They did
not shoot or mutilate the prisoners, but
left them hanging until assured that they
were dead. The dispatches are silent as to
what the military were doing all this while.
NASHVILLE, February l9.-The State Sen
ate this morning unanimously adopted q
resolution condemning the action of the
mob at Springfield in taking the La Praede
prisoners from the custody Of the court
and putting them to death, and declaring
that mobs must be suppressed II it takes
the whole power of the State. The resolu-
tion calls upon the Governor to use all
means for the arrest and punishment of the
perpetrators of this crime, and promising
the active cooperation of the Legislature.
1t is reported that Duffy and Murphy, the
La Praede murderers who turned States
evidence, were found hanging to q tree
near Guthrie, KY, this morning.

THE WOMEN OF MONTENEGRO. The
Montenegrin woman takes an equal
share of labor with the man at field
work, and she does all the carrying. In
travel here one engages horse to ride
and woman for the baggage. Only
those who have neither wife, mother,
daughter, nor dependent female relation,
shoulder burdens as a common thing.
Transport by animals also is depart
ment of female occupation Coming
from Cettinje here one meets pack horses,
mules, donkeys, going up in droves, with
gang of women following Tremendous
weights they carry, slung by straps that
cross the upper chest, and as they
go they knit OF spin. These dwellers by
the frontier are much better looking than
the unmiXed race of the interior, but not
less hardy, strong and Independent.
They have no shame or hesitation in beg
ging, and universal mendicancy on the
part of women and girls must, imagine,
have its influence on morality. In leav-
ing Montenegro the traveller carries with
him deep regard for the gallantry, the
manliness and the shrewd Intelligence of
this strange people. He is constrained
to wish them well, and to hope that they
will acquire means to live at peace here.

STOCKS IN LONDON.
The Financial Record of the Week.

LONDON, February 19.-The Economist of
this week says: "The rate of discount for
bank bills of from sixty days to three
months is 25t per cent, and for trade bills
of from sixty days to three months ~ to 8
per cent. But for an exceptional depression
in home railways, caused by the prospect of
a war of rates and petitions against the Gale
donian for paying sums out of its capital,
which are rightly chargeable to revenue, the
weeks record of fluctuations would have
been very generally gratifying to holders
of securities. The buoyancY abroad and
the reduction in the Bank of England rate are
strong elements In favor of advancing prices.
English colonial and foreign governments
show decided improvement. American and
other foreign railways and bank shares also
meet with good inquiry. There are, how
ever, some instances of a relapse in
insurance and water shares. In for
eign governments, Virginia new fund
ed advanced 4 per cent. on the week.
In American railways, New Jersey Central
shares advanced IL per cent, Central Pa
cifc and California, Illinois Central, Union
Pacific, st. Louis Bridge. preferred, and
Erie preferred, 8 per cent. each; Ohio and
Mississippi, aud st. Louis and San Fran
cisco, per cent. each, and st. Louis and
San Francisco preferred, per cent"

THE LAND LEAGUE.
Rousing Meeting In Brooklyn
speech of Father MackeY.

New YORK. February 2O.-The Land
League agitation Is showing signs of in
creased activity in Brooklyn. In the eastern
district three meetings were held this after
noon. Much enthusiasm was displayed.
At the Thirteenth ward meeting the at
tendance was large, and 1t was difficult to
obtain seats. Rev. Father Mackey, recently
from Ireland, addressed the meeting, and
said the present crisis was most important
one and the members of the Land League
were fully justified in doing everything
they could to stand by their leaders,
provided they did not drift into revolution.
The Irish people were never so united
as they are now. Parnell aud Dillon
intended to do everything in a constitu-
tional way. They had nothing to do with
the revolutionists of the continent, as the
cablegrams had said. The result Of the
agitation would be the national indepen-
Gence of Ireland. They would wait till
they could strike a sure blow, then they
would do it, and not till then.
After Father Mackey's address, which
ELECTED many demonstrations of applause,
several persons joined the League.
