BRIEF NEWS SUMMARY.

Fifteen thousand immigrants are reported
to have arrived in Manitoba this year.
John Axtell, a young man, was fatally
stabbed by hunter named Seaman, whom
he had provoked by repeated insults, in a
saloon at Bellefontaine, Ohio, few nights
ago.
The first fast train to the West by the
New York Central and Lake Shore route
made the run from New York to Albany,
one hundred and fifty miles, in three hours
and twenty minutes.
The British Board of Trade returns for
October show an increase in the value of ex-
ports of 92, ,539, ,02l and an Increase in the
value of imports of 93, ST. 253, as compared
with the same month last year
Douglass Hellberg, a young man, COM
mitted suicide in boarding house In Chi
cago, recently. He took dose of lauda-
mum which failed to affect him, after which
he took another dose, cut his throat and
severed an artery in his wrist.
A mob of several hundred strong gather
ed recently at the jail in Tffin, Ohio, where
Madden, who killed Phoebe Bernhard, is
confined. A demand was made for the
keys, but the Sheriff, who had gathered
posse to defend the jail, refused to give
them up. A fight ensued, in which the
rioters were defeated, but two of the posse
received severe injuries. Militia were
ordered out In anticipation OF another at
tack.
Irish land owners view the great reduc-
tion in rents with alarm, and apprehend If
the principle is carried out their properly
will be confscated to a large extent and
numbers of them ruined. They believe
that the principle of the Commission adopt
ed at Belfast 10 fixing rent will hold out a
premium to the indOlent and incompetent
farmers, and visit the indulgent landlords
with penalty.
Mr.. Parnell has been interviewed by two
prominent members of the Home Rule
League. He said the recent judgments at
Belfast agreed with his estimates that the
rents In Ulster should be reduced TO Grif-
tith's valuation, He believed the reductions
In the south of Ireland would not be as
large, and consequently would not satisfy
the tenants. Any general reduction OF rents
to Griffith's valuation would, because of the
extent to which land is mortgsged, deprive
landlords Of the means of living, and com-
pei the government to buy out Or comben-
safe.
