amusing himself with theatrical troupe,
The troupe doing the playing and Haines
furnishing the money. At first the exhilar-
alton incidental to running a theatrical
troupe delighted Haines. For some unex
planned reason, however, the cash was short
no matter now full the house. Then the
license collectors, bill fiends, hotel men
and raiIroaders began to beset the path of
Haines and make his life a desirable thing
to quit Night before last he made last
grip at the financial straw. The honse was
light, and Butch, the drummer boy, came
al the way from Virginia City to collect
money dne him for humping sheepskin for
the band. Being unable to collect his
money he came before the curtain and made
the following speech, which was taken
down verbatim bya Chronicle short hand re-
porter:
'Now, lookahere, this here show is dead
blk from soda to hook. 1t is snide Billy
Farrell racket that's not worth listening to.
The proprietors are frauds eighteen carats
fine. I'm just giving you the true bust
ness, and don't you forget it. 1 want you
to leave and get your money back at the
door. The show is no good. The actors
are no good I want to put copper on
them as broad as Roman shield. Yon
hear me, I'm bowling. My name is Butch;
from Virginia City, and I mean every
word say.
The orator was then bounced off the
stage.

A YOUNG LADY's FIGHT WITH BURG
LARS 1t seems that this city is now the
attractive point for burglars and sneak
thieves, as robberies are of nightly oc-
currence. Last evening as Miss Nellie
Rodgers, who resides on West Maryland
street, was preparing supper, two men
walked in the back door of the kitchen
aud demanded her money, She took
her pocketbook out of her pocket, and
taking tight grasp on it, refused to sur
render it, at the same time backing into
an adjoining room. After getting into
the sitting room she went to dressing
case, took revolver therefrom, and
ordered the men to leave the house. As
quick as lightning, the burglars wrenched
the revolver from her grasp, threw her
upon the floor and took her pocketbook,
containing sixteen dollars. AS they
turned 10 leave the house they fired three
shots at her, all of which missed her,
This is undoubtedly one of the most dar-
ing burglaries that has taken place in this
city for long time, ,-AIlsOdukee Senti-
mel, October IA.

COnkling and the Treasury - The
Presidents Confidence in Mr..
James.
Washington Cor. Philadelphia Ledger.

Washington Cor. Philadelphia Ledger.
Since General Arthur succeeded TO
the Presidency it has been whispered
about Washington that Roscoe Conkling
was to be called to the head of the
Treasury about the first of January next,
and that any appointment made during
the present session of the Senate would
be made with the understanding that it
was to continue only until Mr. Conkling
could prepare himself to assume the
duties of the Office. The talk was re-
vived today, after the declinatiOn of Mr..
Morgan became known. The President
maintains his usual reticence about the
matter, but it is plain to be seen that
he is annoyed and disappointed with the
failure that has thus far attended his eff
forts to secure Finance Minister. One
thing, however, is certain, and that is,
that the President will not make another
nomination for Cabinet place until he
has received the assurance that the party
nominated will certainly accept the po-
sitiOn for which the nomination is made.
1t is generally believed that another
nomination for the Treasury will be sent
to the Senate tomorrow or Tuesday.
The President has intimated to Post
master General James that he intended
to accept his resignation, and to again
nominate him to be Postmaster General.
The President does not accept the
theory that the present commission of
the Postmaster General expired one
month after the death of President Gar
field, and he informed Mr.. James that in
accepting his resignation and appointing
him to be his own successor, ''he," the
President, intended to manifest his con-
f1dence in the ability and integrity ex-
hibited by Mr.. James in the administra-
tiOn of the Post Office Department.

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.
Guard McGIll's Son Shot In the Capt.
tOl Grounds.
Washin0tOn Post.

A tragic affair occurred at the south
east corner of the capitol few nights
since, William q McGill, Jr., the son of
the pail guard who had the fracas with
Guiteau in his cell, being the victim. He
had been to the National Theatre, and
was returning to his home, 900 East
Capitol street. Officers King and Marks
were on guard at President Arthur's resi-.
dence, about two hundred yards distant
and heard shot and cry OF murder. y
They fastened to the spot, and found
McGill lying on the ground. shot in the
side. His story was that he knew moth
ing until he heard the shot and felt the
wound. Tie officers removed him to
his home and DR.. w. E. G.. Hazen was
called in. He found that the ball had
struck the ninth rib on the left side, and.
glancing, had lodged, about three inches
away, in the muscles Of the back. He
promptly probod and cut for the ball.
which he succeeded in extracting. He
pronounced the wound very dangerous
but not necessarily fatal one. McGill is
about eighteen years of age

The Ninth Massachusetts Regiment
In Richmond.

A Washington letter says: Northern
men here, and especially those from New
England, are very much mortified by the
disgraceful conduct of a portion of the
Ninth Massachusetts Regiment while in
Richmond during the Centennial cele-
bration at Yorktown. They say the
regiment ought to be severely disciplined
when they return to Boston, but excuse
them by suggesting that they are Toughs
from the lower wards of the city, and
not true representatives of Boston 'cul-
chaw.' The Boston Cadets were eX-
pected to play that role, while the Ninth,
beng well drilled and supposed to be
we'll disciplined, was sent to Yorktown
to perform the real soldier duty for the
Bay State. The Ninth are fine soldierly
looking, muscular fellows, and in dress
aud appearance look more like real SOL
diers than any volunteer organization
that has visited Washington for a
long time. Too much whisky and
of Southern city are said to have
been responsible for the disgrace they
brought upon Boston by hugging women
on the streets, standing cOurtesans on
their heads upon the sidewalks, and
similar lawless pranks Their conduct
was skillfully pointed to by Democratic
orators in Virginia as illustrative of the
kind of civilization that Malone,
Dawes, Gorham and that class of re-
formers sought to introduce into the
Old Dominion. Until the end of the
campaign that closes in Virginia within
two or three weeks the Ninth Massa-
chusetts will furnish an argument to
fling at the heads of Democrats who
have been inclined to vote with the
Malone Republican coalition.
THE field officers of the regiment in.
dignantly deny the charges brought
against their men, but the testimony of
uninterested persons who returned from
Yorktown by way of Richmond, con.
firm the accounts given in some of the
newspapers of the affair, and the officers
are doubtless unable TO account for the
doings of their men at all times. The
men say they were unaccustomed to the
negro in his native element, and amused
themselves with them to an extent that
was distasteful to the people of Rich
mond. And that they so often heard
themselves denounced as damned Yam
KEGS, Boston bean-crackers' and similar
insulting remarks, that they are thor
Oughly disgusted with the little they
know of the South by actual experience.
This affair and the Yorktown business
are likely to be the subject of long
newspaper controversy"

LONDON, October 28.-Mr. Gladstone, in
the course Of his reply to an address pre-
sented to him at KnowsleY yesterday, said
the point was whether Ireland is to be gov
erned by laws made by Parliament or by
laws known to nobody and written nowhere,
except in the brains of a few persons,
and enforced by an illegal, arbitrary and
self appointed association, which sought to
override by an organized attempt the free
will of lrishmen. 1t was question between
law and chaos. No fewer than 30,000 ap-
plications have been issued under the land
act, he said, and this led him to anticipate
future peace and prosperity.

the Cork branch of the Land League, has
