The parties tell different stories, but the
facts seem to be about as stated.
CHICAGO, Aug. IA row at Rebecca to-
night originated in quarrel between Tom
Cahill, 20 years of age, who fired shot at
boy named Dixon, who had tormented
him. Dixon complained to policeman Ray,
who was prevented by Toms mother and
brothers from arresting young Cahill.
Several officers than attempted to enter the
house which had been barTicaded; the door
was forced open, when Tom Cahil fred a
ball into officer O'Brien's breast, inflicting
probably mortal wound. He also shot
officer Ray in the head, not fatally Dur

were then made.

light tomorrow.

| Bold and S. Reiter will no doubt die, lcav-
! ing but four of eighteen who have any
! prospect of recovery The dead were bur
! led yesterday, and to-day the funerals are
large and services impressive. The most
touching incident in connection with the
affair has been the death and burial of
Willie and Fritz Fehl, aged 9 and II, who
were consigned to one grave, yesterday
afternoon Nearly all the victims inhaled es-
Gaping steam and their suffering have been
intense The verdict of the coroner's jury
is, that explosion was caused by unneces-
sary pressure Of steam; still one theory is,
that the engineer undertook to turn the
steam off, but instead tured it ON in full
force, thus producing the explosion.
KEOKUK, Iowa, Aug. IA horrible ac-
cident occurred here last evening. Miss
Bell Runy from Cincinnati, Ohio, who has
been visiting in this city, was fatally 1nJur-
ed by the falling of the carriage on an en-
bankment along the canal last evening.
Miss Runy fell distance OF eighty feet
and expired four hours after the accident.
She frequently called for her father and
mother; two friends in the carriage were
unini ured.
Frank Gill, fireman on the water works
was drowned last evening while bathing in
the river; he was found thirty feet from
the shore in 10 feet of water at two o clock
| this morning The coroner's jury returned
a verdict in accordance.
LANCASTER, Aug. IA collision be-
tween freight trains on the Pennsylvania
r. r., resulted in the wrecking of two To-
connective, eight cars and a caboose The
engineer, James Hanckly, was probably fa-
tally injured. A storm was raging at the
time and the fireman says he could not see
a cars length ahead.
| NEW YORK, Aug IA dispatch from
Mazatlan, Mexico, gives an account of an
explosion in government magazine there
on Thursday morning caused by the guard

atoms and many houses in the vicinity des
troyed and a large number OF persons
killed Immediately after the explosion
soldiers and citizens went to work to re
cover the bodies. The number OF the Kill
ed and wounded is not yet known.
A later dispatch says the whole square
was blown up and many families buried IL
ruins.

LONDON, Aug. There was large at
tendance in the House of Lords to-day for
the second reading of the land bill. All
the leaders were present except Granville,
who is indisposed. Carlingford moved the
second reading of the bill in long speech.
In the Commons Parnen was named
for offensive language and for disregarding
the authority of the Chair and Gladstone
moved his suspension for the remainder of
the sitting Parnell interrupted Gladstone
and said he would not go through the
farce of awaiting the vote as the Speaker
interfered with the freedom of discussion.
He then Quilted the House. The motion
for suspension was carried by 1872 to 40.
Parnell was named for persisting, in
spite of the Speakers ruling, in raising the
question of Irish political prisoners and de-
claring that one hundred and thirty Of the
Commons was always on the side OF power.

On the land bill in the House of Lords,
Lord Salisbury followed Lord Carlingford,
and was received with loud cheers by the
Conservatives. He agreed to the bill under
the circumstances, but will stand by the
amendment for the insertion of clear, def
mite and fair rent, for exemption of estates
managed on the English system, and ten
ancies of over f100 yearly from operation
of the bill, and for maintenance of the in
volatility of leases.
The Sergeant-at-ar arms of the House. has
given instructions for the suspension of the
privilege of admission order into the lob

Parnell on leaving said, 81 call the pub
lie to witness that you, Mr.. Speaker, have
refused US freedom of discussion" Glad
stone said he had never before heard such
words used in the House.
TRADE OPINION.
The Mark Lane Express SAYS the tenn
perature for the past week has been on an
average thirty degrees lower than during
the late spell of heat, general rains and 10
cal thunder storms, but wheat was not
thick enough to take serious damage. The
nights have been cold in England, severe
night frosts in Scotland will retard the
harvest. There is mildew reported in wheat
temperature will not be of advantage to
wheat except in North England; the barley
crop viii be very good in some locations
but in remainder of irregular growth and
ripened prematureIy. Oats are good in
Ireland and parts of Scotland; but variable
and indifferent in England. The grain
trade is unchanged and sales are made
with greater difficulty than last week, but
when they were made prices were main
tained although on spot Prices for for
eign grain were nominally unchanged; it
was difficult to make sales on Friday with
out some concessions. Business is very
restricted, but supply not excessive. The
belief growing that the European sharvest
will not equal the estimates, makes holders
disinclined to force sales onward. Trade
is completely sus spended, owing to the diff
ferent ideas Of buyers and sellers. The
market is fairly supplied, but only about a
dozen out of twenty-five car loads were
sold during the week. Buyers have done
nothing since Wednesday. The quantity
of wheat and flour in passage to the United
Kingdom shows a reduction of $4,000
quarters from that of the preyiou week.
ROME, Aug. 1.-The first sitting of the

her bed with such complication of all
ments that no doctor could tell what was
the matter or cure her, and I used up a
small fortune in humbug stuff Six months
ago I saw .. S. flag with Hop Bitters on
it, and thought would be a fool once
