AFFAIRS In ATLANTA.
GOSSIP ABOUT THE EXPOSITION
A General state OF UnreadIness-
Order Fast Growing Out of Chaos
Few Visitors as Yet-''Red EYe,,-
murrain Among Cattle.

ATLANTA October 8.-The weather still
greatest activity prevails at the Exposition
grounds. A dozen new buildings besides
those nearly completed are being erected,
some of which are quite large, Two being as
commodious as the wings of the main Ex-
position building
Hundreds of additional exhibits have ar
rived, and are awaiting the completion Of
the unfinished buildings. Iu fact, the whole
Exposition has more than doubled its origi-
nal outlines, both in size and variety Of
exhibits
No department is yet in order, but every
thing is being pushed ahead with remarka-
BILE energy, and a portion Of the main build
ing will be all right the last of the week.
The Georgia Chemical Works have their
handsome building and grounds almost
ready, and the Baltimore Fertilizer Com
pany's fine building will be finished before
the Georgia Press gang arrives on Wednes-
day. Both exhibits are among the hand
soonest gothic buildings on the grounds.
But few visitors as yet are on the Expo
sition grounds or in the city, the most of
the strangers being exhibitors and news
paper correspondents. None of the hotels
are full, and there is plenty of room for all
who may come. Browns Grand Exposition
Hotel is open, also the Camp Hotel. Ex-
cursionists will not commence arriving be
fore the middle or last of the month. 1t
will be nearly a month before everything
will be in order. Then the Exposition will
be indeed and In fact a grand affair.
The "red eYe'' is prevailing here among
horses, but not yet fatally. The cattle,
however, are not as fortunate. Murrain is
proving fatal among the best blooded cattle
in this vicinity. Colonel Richard Peters
has lost one of his most valuable jersey
cows, and Judge John L. Hopkins says his
famous Jersey BULL young Car Boy, is
dying. The loss to owners of fine herds
win prove great in every respect.

STOCKS London.

LONDON, October S.-The Economist Of
this week says: ''The rate of discount for
bank bills, sixty days to three months, is
435 per cent, aud for trade bills, sixty days
to three months, 45la5 per cent. The effect
Of the rise in money is more apparent in
foreign and colonial than In home securi-
ties. On Tuesday the markets became
much depressed. By Wednesday every one
foresaw a rise in the Bank of England's rate
of discount. Thursdays bank return caused
a marked accession to the gloom, and the
lowest prices of the week were
reached. Friday brought a general re-
covery, and the American departments were
firm, through the absence of gold with
drawals for New York. Spanish have risen

PREMIER AND TRIBUNE,
GLADSTONE'S AND PARNELL'S
ESTIMATES OF EACH OTHER.
The LiberatOr DenOunced-The
Prime Minister ArraIgned-The
Liberal Chief on the Outlook for
Britain's Trade-LabOrers and the
League.

LONDON, October S.-Mr. Gladstone, in
the course of his speech at Leeds, referring
to Mr.. Parnell's course on the land bill, de.
clared that, although Mr.. Parnell did all he
could to injure the bill, he did not dare to
vote against it, for, If he had done so, his
own Lesguers would have risen in a body
against him.
AS an illustration of the benefits of free
trade, Mr.. Gladstone pointed out that the
goods to Asia, Africa and Australia amount
ed to 94,75O,0OO worth, while the
English exports to those countries
amounted to 977,000,OO0. TCheers. The
trade of France and America together did
not equal the English, although both en-
joyed protection. England beat them in all
neutral markets. Mr.. Gladstone said: "As
long as America adheres to protection our
comm ercial supremacy will be secure. We
need not disturb ourselves in the slightest
on that score. Compared with America and
Germany we have now, man for man, thrice
the amount of trade they have"
Mr.. Parnell delivered an address at Wex-
ford to-day. Alluding to Mr.. Gladstone he
said many Of them had studied the words
Of the great man and great orator, who
until recently had desired to impress the
"AOA OAO SOOO OPlhAOh VI nAo
philanthropy and hatred of oppression, but
who stood to-day the greatest coer-
zionist and most unrivalled slanderer
of the Irish nation. Mr.. Parnell
characterized Gladstone's speeches as un-
scrupulous and dishonest. He CMr. Glad
stone) had maligned the Irish peoples Bish-
ops and Mr.. Dillon. No Misrepresentation
was too low or too mean for him to stoop
to. 1t was a good sign that this masquera-
ding knight errant this pretended champion
of the liberties of all nations, except the
Irish, was obliged to throw off his
mask to-day and stand revealed as prepared
to carry fire and sword into Irish home
steads, unless people humbled and sbased
themselves before him aud the landlords.
Mr.. Gladstone had accused him (Mr. Par
nelly Of preaching gospel of plunder, but
the land had been coDfscated three times
over by the men whose descendants Mr..
Gladstone is now supporting IN the enjoy
ment of their plunder by bayonets and
buckshot,
A manifesto Of the Irish labor delegates
to the recent Land League Convention has
been issued. 1t praises the labors of Mr..
Parnel for the success of the Land League,
and refers gratefully to the treatment Of
the laborers at the convention. 1t urges
the representatives of the farmers and the
landholders to fulfill the pledge then given
to secure better dwellings for lsborers.

THE AUTOCRATS REALM.
The ExtradItIOn Of Political CrImi-
nals-Students Arrested.

LONDON, October 8.-The JoArrdl de ST.
Petersburg (officiaD, commenting on the re-
ports relative to an international conven
tlon for the extradition OF polisical crimi-
nails, says: "The Russian Government has
no intention of exercising pressure
on any quarter. 1t regards
the action of such criminals
against society as threatening all States
alike, and, therefore, thinks that the de-
fensive measures against the scourge
should be collective. Russia has invited
all the other governments interested to
come to an arrangement. As matter of
course, each power is at liberty to act as
the circumstances of its legislative institu-
tions require"
The Berlin correspondent of the Standard
says: "Twenty pupils OF the Constantine
military school have been arrested. Many
Nihilst proclamations were found on them.
The Russian authorities, In view of
this fact, are adopting the seVerest
measures. Markets and fairs are
prohibited wherever there is the least sus-
picion that the Nihilists intend to use such
gatherings for their own purposes"

dispatch to the Ne0 MeTican from El Paso
says: Passengers via the Southern Pacific
road report that on Thursday night, when
their train was passing Wilcox, Arizona, a
fight was in progress between citizens and
Indians. The Indians seemed to have made
an attack on the whites, who were
thrown into great confusion, and were re-
treating. The firing Of guns, which was
fierce and constant, drowned the noise OF
the railroad train, and was heard for a num-
Der of miles. The bodies of five line re-
pairers were seen near the track shot
through The head. This is the second party
Of telegraph men murdered in the past few
days. Nothing has been received confirms
tory of the above at the district headquar-

A BARGAIN WITH THIEVES.
SInaul Arrangement Between the
Iron Mountain Train Robbers and
Their CaptOrs.

LITTLE Rock, ARK, October 6.-Cox,
Stephens and Delaney, the Iron Mountain
train robbers, pleaded guilty in Hampstead
Circuit Court Yesterday, and were sentenced
to the penitentisry for term OF seventy
years each. The robbery occurred on the
22d Of September and the men were cap
tured on the 2Sth. A special term Of the
court was held to try them.
LITTLE Rock, October 9.-The case of the
men who robbed a passenger train on the
Iron Mountain Railroad on September I'd,
and who were captured on September 2Sth,
one in Texas and two in the Indian Nation,
and brought to Washington, assumed a new
and sensational phase in the special term Of
the court held on Friday, when each of the
robbers pleaded guilty to fourteen indict-
ments, making the term of punishment sew
entv years for each man.
The pursuing party that captured two Of
the robbers, Stephens and Delaney, consist
ed OF four men named Huddlestone, Bel
venes, Moore and DRllahode. When ar
rested the robbers had about SO, 900 In their
possession. Huddlestone proposed to his
comrades to divide the money among
tuOnSClfN5s ODIoCJcuy Sd1luS bhC
money ought to be returned to the railroad
company, but he finally agreed to it's being
equally divided among the four officers in
the presence of Stephens and Delaney. In
consideration of the latter two keeping the
matter secret, each of the four officers took
an oath that he would annually pay to the
family of the train robbers one hun dred
dollars aud leave no means untried to secure
their release from the penitentiary after
conviction.
The party reached Hope, turned over the
prisoners to the authorities and came to
this city, where they received one thousand
dollars, the reward offered by the
State for the capture. All the cap
tors appeared at the trial, when
BeIvenes divulged the whole matter
to Superintendent Buchanan, of the Iron
Mountain Road. Huddlestone, Moore and
Dallahode were examined separately. Each
made affidavit that he knew nothing of the
whereabouts of the money, but subsequently
Moore approached Mr.. Buchanan and stated
that the money could be procured.
