England aud the Monetary

London, %. In view of the reassem-
bling of the monetary conference on
Thursday, the Times, while conceding
that it was an act of courtesy to France
and the United States 10 accept their in
vitation TO send delegates to the confer
ence, advises the Withdrawal of English
representatives. in that body, as there is
no expectation in any case of Englsnd's
agreeing to anything tina; will affect her
adhesion 70 q single gold standard. The
writer declares the basis of the confer
ence is fundamentally erroneous con-
ception of the functions Of government
in regard TO metallic currency, and Op-
posed to traditional principles of the
English currency system. 1t views the
presence of English delegates in the con-
gress as most unfortunate, and calculated
to injure the reputation of the English
government In dealing with metallic
currency, government should simply
guarantee It's weight and fneness, follow
ing the wishes of its subjects in the selec-
ton of metal, and in no way Offering to
regulate the supply OF metal itself

Cork, 27.-Col. Brooks, American

.OMahoney was made naturalizGd citi-

worthy of note that in his sweeping ia
dictment against government he made
no attack upon the land bill. Meetings
were also held in Cork, Waterford and
Mayo, but the speakers, like Sexton,
dealt almost exclusively with the coer-
cion act and asaaied Foster. The agrar-
ian agitation is nearly extinct. The hay
crop that has Just been harvested is the
best Ireland has had since before the
great famine, and the potato crop prom
ises to be extraordinarily abundant. The
fisheries were never more profitable.
In Kinsale district they are using fish by
the car loads for manure. Then again
landlords have Withdrawn eiectment
writs in hundreds of cases, and for
the sake of peace and harmony are
taking Griffiths' valuation. Under the
circumstances the agitators find it hard
work to fire the people. The priests, too,
are retiring from the movement. So
great has been the reaction created by
Archbishop McCsbe's pastoral in the
announcement that the prelste is coming

One day last March, while Major
Herbert was sitting IN his office at the
compress, he was trifc surprised to
see black dog jump through the win
dow, smashing glass and sash. The
dog remained about the Office, and a
day or two afterward gave birth to a
litter of outrageously ugly puppies.
The dog was sociable kind of animal
and made her home about the com
press, subsisting off the remnants of
hands dinners. No matter where she
was, when the u o'clock whistle blew
that black dog was on hand in few
minutes, for dinner. Some time during
the summer Wilson's force of men
went TO Louisiana TO work on the New
Orleans Pacific, and one of the men
took the dog with him. She was gone
for nearly two months, and no one ever
expected to hear of or see her again,
but one day about month ago Major
Herbert noticed II poor, lame and mis-
erable-looking dog, limping toward the
compress, and remarked that
the animal looked something like
the old compress dog. Sure
enough, such 1t proved to be, though in
Il terribly dilapidatcd condition, for
one of her hips had been broken and
she was SO nearly starved TO death as

days, but IL now III fat, sleek and

Yesterday morning az 3 o'clock the

city from its siumber. The fire was
finally located on North Fourth street,
or rather on "A parallel alley between
Fourth and Third streets, being the
two houses occupied by Stella Hart
ridge and Rosa Stewart for purposes
of prostitution. Both buildings and
contents were a total loss, Stella
saving but one trunk. The houses
were wooden structures and the fire
had such headway before the alarll
reached the city the fire department
could do nothing to save the property
though they responded promptly
Stella Hartridge was insured for Si,2N
with Downs " Fort, and Rosa Stewart
with j. O. Harrison for $500. The
owners say the property was set on fire
by some one not connected with
them, but by whom is not known
and 1t Is not known that any
one is even suspicioned. Some
eight or ten women are thus thrown
on the cold mercies of the world, but
have found shelter with others Of Their

which it was put, and it is naturally t.

| FORTRESS MONROE, Va, December
6.-Particulars received of the murder
of William Schatter, last Friday after
noon, four miles north of Newport
represent that the affair grew out of Il
| dispute between the deceased and a
colured man, VIM. Allen, who was EN-
plOyed by two brothers of the name of
| Kelly, occupying Schatter's house.
Schatter wanted to ride
IN a conveyance owned by the
i[eilys and drawn by Aliens mule.
There had been some previous trouble
between Schatter and Alien in regard TO
| an anchor which Schatter had lost and
which he found i'll a boat belonging to
Allen, when hard words passed be
tween the men, in which it is said Al
len threatened to let daylight through
Schatter the first chance he got. He
refused Schatter's request to let him
ride home with the Kelly brothers on
the evening of the ailray and when he
reached his house the quarrel was re-
newed. Mrs. Kelly heard the noise
and shortly afterward cav Allen strike
Schatter, who then called Allen black
thief. Allen then knocked INN down
and commenced choking him. 1t was
with difficulty he could be torn from
his victim. AS Schatter did not get
up it was thought he had tainted, and
he was carried into the house, when
blood was found on his clothes. An
examination was made, and three cuts
were discovered on the back of the
left shoulder, which seems to have
snarled upward and cut. cash
in the head behind the ear, and two
others, one of which went through a
lung and the other through the heart,
the latter killing him instantly,
Schatter was a delicate man and
always bore a good reputation The
Kelly brothers secured the negro Allen,
who seems to have made no effort to
escape He denied the cutting and
had evidently thrown away the knife,
as it could not be found. He was then
taken to Jail at Warwick courthouse,
where he is now confined. Schatter
