The Albany Deadlock

ALBANY, Jan. 4.-The legislative dead
lock is likely to remain until Wednesday
next, when, it is said tonight, it will be
broken in the senate; that the senate pro-
gramme of the Democrats is to have a
Democratic member offer resolution ap-
pointing committees upon which the Re-
publicans are to have fair representa-
ton, and number of them will vote for
the resolution. The Tammany leaders
scout the idea of such combination, and
say that Senator Jacobs called upon them
this evening and proposed to accede to
their demands in every instance, which
proposition they say they declined unless
he withdraws as candidate for the presi-
pencY pro tenn. The New York county
Democratic leaders left this evening feel
ing confident that no organization can be
perfected before next week.

Iexpended over a hundred dollars in doctors
and medicines. Twas so far gone at one
time report went around that was

told me of DR.. William Halls

friends, thinking that my case was incurable,
but got bottle to satisfy them, when, to my
surprise and qualification, commenced TO feel
better. My hope, once dead, began to revive,

IRELAND.

LONDON, Jan. "A copy of the Dublin
corporation resolution comforting the free
dom Of the city upon Parnell 6 Dillon
will be sent to the Lord Lieutenant of
of Ireland, accompanied by request
that Parnell g. Dillon be allowed to attend
the city hall to receive the certificate of
freedom.
SPEECHES OF LEADING LIBERALS.
Right Hon. John Bright, chancellor of
the Duchy of Lancaster, and Right Hon.
Joseph Chamberlain, president of the
board Of trade, spoke at Birmingham
yesterday. The former traced the cause
of Irish disaffection to long course of
tory misrule, and justified the coercion
measures on the ground of their absolute
necessity. He pointed out that much Of
the Irish discomfort now arose from the
misconception or ignorance of English
liberality, while Irish poverty resulted
from the driving away of English capt
tai.
Bright added: 81 do not pretend to be
Democrat. What favor is such degree
of freedom as will give security to free
dom, but not such degree as should de-
stroy 1t. Some who blame the govern
ment are ignorant of the principles on
which alone Democracy can be made toll
cradle The principles they profess IN
regard to coercion might lead them, if at
sea, to object to mutiny being sup
pressed by putting the mutineers in
irons. Irish-Americans haye organized
conspiracy committees with the miserable
idea that they could influence the policy
and safety of Great Britain by such
means. Doubtless many of this class who
were at the Chicago convention were,
though mistaken, honest and patriotic,
but they took their ideas of Ireland from
tales of bygone times"
Chamberlain said the government
would suppress open or covert rebellion,
and would find means to enable the land
courts to deal with cases coming before
them. He had no sympathy with absen-
tee agltators, who, from safe distance,
caused others to commit crime while
they administer funds from America from
safe retreat in Paris. Chamberlain rid
iculed the land lords demand for COM
pensatlon. He thought the tenants rath-
er ought to be compensated for excessive
rents extracted from them for many
years.
DUBLIN. Jan. 4-Whelan and Ryan, COM
mitted for trial last week, on the charge of
reasonable felony, were released to-day on

PATIENCE, UTTERLY-UT-
First Presentation in st. Paul of the Es-
thetic Burlesque.

First Presentation in st. Paul of the Es-
thetic Burlesque.
1t was a happy thought when the man.
ager of the Emma Abbott opera company
conceived the idea of presenting for the
first time to st. Paul audience the high
ly absurd and intensely ridiculous agony
of "Patience" The immense reputation
acquired throughout the country for this
consummate achievement of vapid, al
though none the less amusing nonsense,
preceded its presentation to this city, and
a spirit of curiosity would have alone
sufficed to fill the opera house to repletion.
Additional interest was felt from the
fact of its representation by the Abbott
English Opera company, and judging
from the immense audience that greeted
the entertainment last night and the en-
thusiasm aroused, it was the browning
triumph of the engagement
AS previously announced, the pro-
gramme of ''Patience" was preceded by
the famous mad scene from sLucia,
Bride of Lammermoor,' with Miss Abb
bolt as Lucia and MIR. Comfy, the basso,
as Raymond. Although visibly suffering
from her unfortunate indisposition, Miss
Abbott's singing of the great scene was
worked by the usual power and sympathy
of feeling, her action and voice combin-
ing to timidly realize the Inflated hero
inc of the opera.
Mr.. Comfy had short part to enact, but
he did it with the usual manifestation of
power and artistic excellence,
The audience were on the qui vive for
"Patience," and it proved the hit of the
engagement. The scene is in Sullivan's
best vein, and abounds in sparkling
music, the ibretto being the production
of his colleague, W. S. Gilbert. AS a
parody or satire on the aesthetic craze, a
disease or malady peculiar to certain
phases of life in upper tendon, and sup
posed to be due 70 chronic disarrange-
ment of the gasti: regions, it is q sue
cess.
AS the ultra oetical, super. asthetical
bard, although not strictly in his line Of
business, Mr.. VIM. Castle made a most
ridiculous and consequently very success
full character of Reginald Bunthorne, the
fleshey poet of the play. AS the Idylic
poet Mr.. Olmi's makeup was great and
he was too utterly all but for anything
but just what the ridiculous role re-
quired. Miss Rosewald sang and acted
the role of Patience in fervent manner,
and her impersonatien was very well
liked. The singing generally was good.
Miss Annandale did credit to the love-
lorn character of Lady Jane, her acting
being quite intense. The Dragons made
fine showing and the chorus numbers
were the most enjoyable of the evening.
Mr.. Stoddard made handsome Colonel
and Appelby and Tams were both very
utter. The rapturous maidens could, in
short, not have been more perceptibly in
tense and silly, and the performance was
highly enjoyed.

INSURING GRAIN.
Suit Brought to Enforce a Blanket Ell
vatOr Policy.

Suit Brought to Enforce a Blanket Ele-
vator Policy.
Judge Nelson decided on yesterday the suit
of Geo. 8. Barnes, brought in the United
States Circuit Court against the Hartford
Insurance company. The suit was
brought to enforce payment on blanket
policy covering grain in a large number of
elevators. While the policy was in force the
elevator at Mapleton, Mimi, burned. involving
a loss of $12,96S1S. The total
grain insurance carried by the plain
tiff was $330,000, and the court
held that there was no question as to the liza.
bility of the company. The question was one
of computation purely the company being
liable for the pro rata share according to the
ratio the loss bore to the whole insurance.
The court found this to be S1,207.75 and Or
dered Judgment in that sum.

cash payments about 81, 900. There were
also cash payments made upon coupons
amounting to $4,000. During the day,
also, claims awarded by the commission
deducted from the old bonds issued to

THE WEEKLY CLARION.
Patent Sharks.

One of the just demands of the
Grangers in the passage of law to pro-
teet the public from patent sharks. \
contemporary describing the abuse that
needs correction says, for instance, a
farmer goes into a hardware store and
buys barbed fence or patent hay fork or
some similar article These he uses in i'm
proving his farm. Along comes the agent
of the patentee and claims the use of the
articles infringement of a patent, and
threatens to bring suit for such infring-
ment unless the farmer is willing to pay
back s25, which is the usual price ex-
acted. The farmer is compelled to pay
or take the alternative of suit.
Should the suit be brought the farmer
would be compelled toappear in United
States Court, probably many miles
away, and the cost of travel to attend
would probably be equal to the money
demanded. Hence, as rule, he sub
mits to the extortion. A law is wanted
to protect an innocent purchaser in open
market of any patent. While it may
in some cases work unjustIy to paten-
tee, it will protect an innocent purchaser
from prowling wolves. tits significant
that the only opponents of the measure
are the "down-East Yankees" whose
have been in the habit of
the extortion.
