4 WEAKLING'S MISREPRESENTA
TION.

That peculiar champion, and only
true friend of the South, the editor,
of the Knoxville Tribune, is grieved
because, as he says, Republican
organs, especially those Ill the South,
have refrained from using, as news
paper matter" the "good will ex-
pressed toward the wounded Presi- |
dent and Democratic prayers for his |
recovery He thinks the Republi> |
can newspaper men are surprised at
this manifestation of good will, and |
says:
Perhaps in expressing surprise
they must also notice the good in
fuence o. the matter, and this would
be contrary to Republican conduct.
Our neighbor here, next door above,
who has been praying these twenty
years for mark of humanity in tue
South, does not even recognize it
when it comes.
If the writer means to say
that the CHRoN1cLE has failed to
recognize the sympathy of the South
ern people for the wounded Presi>
dent, he simply writes what he knows
to be false, and what every reader of
our paper knows to be false. We
have repeatedly acknowledged the
existence of this sympathy which is
confined to no sect. section or party.
We spoke of this promptly, and
when the Tribune was INDUCING in
low slang about the wounded Presi-
dent, which its editors in their ig-
norance took for wit.
The people generally throughout
the South almost unanimously look
upon the afflicted President as
their President, the President
of their Republic, and are as
profoundly grieved as the peo>
pie of any other section. We
believe they are united in this SYM
pathy, as earnest and as unanimous
as in any other section of the land
This we have said in substance more
than three weeks before the Tribune
published the above false and foolish
paragraph, arraigning us for a failure
to recognize the position of the
Southern people in this hour of deep
national sorrow
g We have heard of men who make
pretensions to responsibility, taking
a pot of backing, and with brush in
hand, sneaking around in the dead
hour of night, and disfguring the
premises of their Republican neigh>
bors, by writing 1929 on their side
walks, fences, front gates and walls,
and we have no doubt but that the
hand which wrote the Tribune edito-
rial would engage in this 6 329" busi-
ness again under the same circum-
stances, and the empty head that
prompted it would think it had done
a smart thing.
The editors of the Tribune may
m;sconstrue our motives whenever
they choose to do so, and may treat
us as enemies to the South and the
Southern people because we belong
to the Republican party, if they like,
but we expect them to keep some
where in the neighborhood Of the
truth when they attempt to make
statements of fact When they in>

LONDON, Nov 2S.-A Dublin correspondent
says: In County Clare alone seven houses
were fired into last week, of which outrages
no report has been published. Resistance to
payment of rent has not in the least abated,
but rather increased.
A Cork correspondent says: A party of
armed men recently entered the house of
womon named Henane, near Listowel, County
Kerry, for the purpose of shooting her, be-
cause she had given information to the police.
Her children threw themselves upon their
mother in terror. and one of them received
charge of shot in the legs. TIE party left the
house after making tie mother swear, under
threats of death, not to divnlge the occur
renee. Six persons have been arrested on sus-
picion of being concerned in the outrage.
The houses of two persons who had paid
rent were willfnlly burned at Kasoekask last
evening.
Butterfeld, land league organizer for coun-
ties Down and Armagh, was arrested to-day.
A party of armed men forced entrance into
the house OF a farmer named j. o. Keefer, iu
county Cork, and fired several shots at the
occupant, wounding him. He had paid his
rent.
Several outrages have occurred IN the County
Wexford, which, until recently, was quiet and
orderly. The sheriff of Cork, protected by
large force of military and police, has arrived
at Castletown, where there will be forty evic-
tions on the estate of Lord Bantry.
VISIT TO THE SUSPECTS.
Herbert Gladstone, accompanied by the
sheriff, and O'Donnell, minister of parliament,
visited Parnell, Dillon, O'Krlly and Kenning
in Kilmainham Jail. O'Donnell says the sus-
poets have the look OF men whose health is
being steadily undermined.
O'DONNELL's ADVICE.
O.Donnell arrived ut London during Mon
day night and addressed an enormous crowd.
he advised electors to vote against the nomi-
nee of the coercion government for parlia-
ment.

A BREAK

Excitement Yesterday I'm the Chicago
Grain and Provision Markets.
CHICAGO, Nov. 2s.-Under the influence Of
unfavorable Eastern and cable advices the
grain markets lost their vigor to-day, and
prices ruled lower all around. However, q
fair demand sprung up with each break and
there was no very great weakness, although
figures show little average decline for the day.
On call the early sales were at lower prices,
but at the close the feeling was better and q
slight advance is recorded. Wheat was ex-
cited at times and liberal amounts
were thrown on the market for specu.
lativs purposes. The market opened X@1c
lower, advanced %c and declining to the inside
prices for the day, rallied at the close selling
q little higher, but ending with sales l]<@1xc

collapse which may prove permanent q the
shorts seem to be satisfied and the demand
has dropped of almost entirely. Rye was
steady and unchanged, but there was . sudden
break on barley Of SIC for cash. Provisions
were fairly active. Pork advanced 16 to 2Oc,
and the price was well maintained to the close.
Lard was also active with an advance Of 8 to

Chrlstiancy's Cruelty and Drunkenness
WAsHNaroN, Nov. 2s.-In the Christiancy
divorce case this afternoon the cross examina-
tion Of Mary F. Lugenb-el mother Of Mrs.
Christiancy was resumed. Being asked to re-
late some details of Christancy's alleged
cruelty to his wife, witness testified that
while she was visiting them in lansing. Mich.
Christiancy knocked his wife down in their
room. Some days later the witness spoke
about the circumstance to Christiancy, and he
said he was DRUNK when he did It aud it
should not occur again. ChIstiancy
and his eons were drunk during the entire
time she was at the house, and fighting be-
tween them was an every day occurrence.
During the giving of witness testimony she
was repeatedly prompted aud corrected by her
daughter, to which counsel for the plaintiff
objected. This brought oa sharp coiloquy,
in which Mrs. ChristIancy asserted that her
husband was drunk all the time, as was one of
his counsel.
This last declaration irritated the gentleman
to whom she referred QngersolD, who de-
nanded that the charge be made part of the
record, and, amid some excitement, the ses-
sion closed.
