At the annual meeting Of the Ken!usk

sided at the stockholdsrs' meeting.
There are 80, 900 shares OF stock In the
mine, consequently IL required over
5000 shares for q quorum. When the
List Of stockholders was called. to deter
mine how much stock was represented.
Mr.. Marye. and those that cast their
fortunes with him, did not answer. 1t
Vas soon apparent that they were trying
TO prevent q quorum Of the stock from
being represented al the meeting. In
which case he (Marys) would undoubt.
edly have ruled that the old Trustees
vosld hold over until the next annual
meeting. But whom he found these op-
posed TO him had over 1880 shares Of

''the best laid plans OF mice and men"
had failed. Alter . hasty consultation

his friends had Q little over 10. 500 shares.

A good deal has been said heretofore
about the arbitrary rulings Of Presidents
Of mining companies. but 1t 10 doubted

OF the majority. and compelled them

No man, or set Of men. ever succeeded
in the long run by such sharp practice.
They may prosper for q time, but their
acts. like the boomerang. will come back
to them with destructive force.

Iri,h National Convention.

CHICAGO, December 1.-THE Irish
National Convention met this morning
about half past nine. The Committee
on Credentials not being ready to report
the announcement OF this fact was re-
ceivsd with some marks Of disspprobs-
ton. It WAS stated in behalf Of the
committee that the credentials Of the
New York delegates were not yet at
hand, but subsequently, these were OBJ.
tanned and the committee reported 1888
delegates in attendance. There was
some question as to the official author
ity Of some delegates and there was .
RAINING debate over some names.
A telegram was received from Patrick
Egan at Paris. that ho bad learned that
Ave thousand properties, representing
. rental OF ten million pounds . year,
had already refused to rent. in obedi-
snoe to the Land League manifesto.

The Ranker,s Bad Fix.

CALDWELL, Kansas. December L.
Nothing had been done with Dan.
ford last evening. The action Of
the committee sent to Witchits yes.
tsrday morning was awaited. The
indications were that unless Danford
showed up hard money to the sat.
isisction Of the creditors hs would
care nothing for banks or bankers before
morning. Everything was quiet, but the
feeling Is deep and determination to have
the money or his life was very strong.
A crowd OF armed men was here from
Hunnswell TO take Danford as soon 90
the Caldwell folks got through With
him. He was In o bad box whichever
way hs turned. Some Of his instru.
ments (Tannsr and Romap) had given
him away. They were invited to do 30
or take o walk to the timber. They then
talked out. Nothing probably will be
done with them or Smith II Daniorth 10

DISPATCHES,
The speakership Of the House.

The speakership OF the House.
New Yonx, December 1.-The morn.
ing papers generally have come to the
conclusion that the Spssksrsbip quss-
ion is narrowed down to to Hiscock and
Kasson, with q possibility Of the success
of some dark horse. Hisoock has de-
cidedly the inside track at present, many
new arrivals Of Congressmen being un'
eIpectedly in his favor.
CuIcioo, December Ia TIMES
Washington special says: Reports from
Philadelphia confirm the belief that b.
Il. Brewster. is the coming Attorney
General. The newest feature in the
contest for the Spoakership is an effort
made by Thomas O. Plat in behalf Of
Kisfer Of Ohio. based upon personal
hostility to Hiseock. The Pennsyl-
vsnians are being urged 10 vote for
Kasson, to secure the Ways and Means
Craftsmanship for Judge Kelley.
The President refuses TO express ON
opinion on the Speaksrship. To . gen.
