out of his coat pocket a roll Of nlnli,'-
script, addressed the court In the app:,r-
cnt belief and with the air IF the princ-
pal counsel in the case: ''If the court

The Working of the Irish Land Act.

The Working of the Irish Land Act.
 LON DON, Feb. 27.-Upon the return of the
 Cabinet from Windsor this afternoon the
 Liberal members of Parliament assembled at
 Gladstone's house in great force, some three
 hundred members of both houses being pres ent, majority of them, however, being members of the lower house. Gladstone, in
 addressing the meeting, said the. policy which
 the government had marked out for itself, and which it had thus far pursued, was abso-
 lutely necessary for the good government of Ireland For himself, and after full consul
 tation with his colleagues, he had determin-
 edly resolved to attempt to carry the motion
 of which he had given notice to be moved to-
 night deprecating the proposed inquiry into the workings of the land act. The reso- lution was then adopted and most unanimously approved by those present at the meeting declaring their approval of Gladstone's course and pledging themselves to support it. In the House of Commons this evening Mir Gladstone said that wishing to prevent the evils arising out of differences between the two houses of Parliament he was willing to abstain from moving the resolution if an arrangement could be made excluding inquiry into the judicial working of the Irish land act. From the action of the committee of in q3fry appointed by the House of Lords Sir Stafford Northcote said he could give ap- proval to no such undertaking Application to that effect should be made to the commit tee Gladstone then made 0 motion that the regular order Sof the day be postponed in favor of the Irish land act business and it was carried by 300 against 167.

run away to this city, taking with them a quantity of silks and silver belonging to their parents. The girls are nineteen and seven teen years of age Their name is withheld by the police. According to the mothers story, the motive for their leaving home was desire to be independent and earn living for themselves Tie elder of the girls had lived for some time in this city Recently she persuaded her younger sister to join her, and, going to Providence, took her away in the absence of her mother. The latter charges that it was the older daughter who also took the silver A detective detailed to look up the girls sought them at friends house in Twenty-frst street, and learned that they had taken room together in Twentieth street. They were out when the officer called, but from directions obtained he found them in a store in West Fourteenth street, applying for situations as saleswomen. They went with him to police headquarters, where scene ensued when they were confronted by their mother They refused to return home, and their parent, far from manifesting de- sire to have them do so, made formal charge of theft against the oldest of the two. The younger sister, however, unexpectedly came to the rescue, declaring that she herself had taken the silver away. Superintendent Wal ling wisely decided to send the three women before magistrate, in order to let them fight their battle in court.

 of All Previous Records-Good Work by
 the Other Men.
 NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-Much excitement prevails over the six-days walking contest. At 1:28 p. m. Rowell passed his 100 miles, hay ing accomplished it in 13 hours, 2S minutes, 56 seconds, which is 32 minutes better than he did it in November, 1SSO which is the best previous record, when he covered 100 miles and 439 yards in precisely fourteen hours in Agricultural Hall, Islington, at the time Dobler, Pegram and Hart were taken to England to'compete for the Astley belt. Sul- Ivan followed close at Rowelrs heels this afternoon bound that Rowell should not gain any more lead on him. The race be- tween Fanchot and Noremac, who kept close ly together this afternoon, excited interest and bet was made that Panchot would beat Noremac. Several Englishmen were accom- modated with odds against Hazael, whom the bookmakers hold will collapse before the sixth day. At 3 p. m. the crowd in the gar Hazael was on dead run. At this hour Rowell had covered 1OS miles 7 laps, the best time on record at p. m., heretofore, made by Rowell, 1O6 miles laps During the afternoon the betting for place was as follows, the bookmakers being afraid of re- spectacle odds even on ''sure things: ;" Nor. emac or Panchot to 1, Sullivan to 1. Ha. gael to l, Hughes to l, Fitzgerald to 2, Scott 12 to 1, Hart to 1. Vint withdrew at 3 o'clock this morning after covering nine teen miles.
 There was large attendance at the garden during the evening and the wonderful records made by the leading men were loudly ap pIauded Rowell kept up steady trot until 10:30, @when after scoring 15O miles, being nearly four miles ahead Of the best record, he retired to rest.

The high corsage, with the Msdici collar wns composed of white bugles and pearls and full ruches of fine point Duchesse lace fell softly round the throat and sleeves. A longS plain. battlemented train, with lace balayeuse and small paniers beneath the corsage, the whole enveloped in full veil of tulle, were notice able. The only ornament worn WAS a mag nifcent diamond brooch, the gift of the bridegroom. The bride was supported by her sister, Miss Marie L. washburne, who wore lovely costume of cream surah satin, exquisitely fashioned, and trimmed with the Irish point embroidery, and short veil fast ened with star ahd bouquet of bonseline roses.
 ''At the completion of the ceremony the newly welded couple and their assistants ar ranged themselves, forming half circle. un- der the emblem of Good Luck and re- ceived the congratulations of their friends. In the magnificent dining room, furnished with ebony and gold, with appropriate orna- mentation, was spread bountiful breakfast, with charming centre piece of lovely flow CTS and luscious fruit. Though the presents were not displayed, they were numerous and very elegant. Among them may be men, toned Mir. Washburne's generous gift of a charming house and lot situated very near his own home.

A Memorial Service mt Chicago.

CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-Garfield memorial ser vices were held tonight at Central Music Hall, fully two thousand persons being pres- ent. The stage was very beautifully draped with flags and caught up and trimmed with bands of deep mourning The flowers which were so much admired on the catrfalque at Cleveland occupied position on the stage.
 It was expected that Hon. E. B. Washburne would preside, but letter of regret was read from him. A touching letter re- gretting that she could not be present was also read from Mrs. Garfield It was address ed to the Women's Christian association un. der whose auspices the services were held. District Attorney Leake was the first speaker of the evening After appropriately explain
 ing the object of the Services he introduced Rev. Arthur Little, who offered the prayer ot the evening. 'T know that my Redeeme1 liveth' was then sung by Miss Jennie Dutton MT. Eugene J. Hall then recited an origina poem written for the occasion. This was followed by the singing of Garfeld's favorite hymn, "Ho, reapers of life's harvest" by

LOCAL N E " B. Oyster Ground Hearing.
Disputed Boundaries in New Haven
 

Disputed Boundaries in New Haven
 Harbor.
 Yesterday morning further arguments were heard by the Shell Fish Commissioners upon the application of George Belcher for a des- ignation of 16O acres of oyster ground in New Haven harbor, which ground or portion of it H. c. Rowe claims to own under the old town law, and opposes the application.
 John w. filling, counsel for Mr. Rowe, maintained that the title of the latter to the ground in dispute was entirely good and valid. Even if it was defective in some technical point, which it was not, the fact of his being in possession of the property should give him preference as against all outsiders.
 W. K. Townsend argued that Mir. Rowe's title was void because of uncertainty in desig- hating on the map the 162 acres that were all MT. Rowe could claim by law, and it was also void because the Selectmen who had made the grant to Mir. Rowe had exceeded their powers in granting 2S2 acres when they could only designate 162. Again Mir. Rowe had blundered in not stating in his applica- ton for the 2S2 acres of ground that some of it had rocky and muddy bottom, so that not more than 162 acres of it were suitable for oyster growing.
 In the matter of the difficulty between MT. Rowe and Caleb Luddingtot about oyster ground, William o. Case, who appeared for Mir. Luddington. asked that the hearing go over until next Monday, he had to go to Hartford yesterday. It was so ordered There are quite number of disputes between oys- ter growers to shortly come before the Com missioners

the St. Cecilia quartette. MT. Emory A. Storrs was then introduced and spoke substantially as follows f'It seems SC fitting, appropriate and worthy of this occasion that song and flowers, so sweet and tender that they touch every human heart, should be prelude to these memorial services. It is fitting, too, that this great the services are held" The speaker said that more was expected of him than to echo his own feelings of love and admiration for the man and his memory. Garfield belonged not to to-day or tomorrow His fame belonged to centuries He was the property of the people he represented, and was part of the grandest party in this or any other country James A. Garfield succeeded because he was right, always right Mir. Storrs then traced Garfeld's course through the war, paying glowing tribute to his honor, bravery and courage Though disaster followed thick upon disaster, the heart of Garfield never failed him. During the fearful and trying times of slavery Garfield was ever with the martyred President Lincoln, and was always on the side of right. In legislation and in- dustry of all kinds Garfeld's hand was seen, and for the good of the people. As country we are better, more prosperous, more honorable for the wise things that Gar field did. For twenty-fiv years Garfield was a contributor to grander history than the pen of the historian has ever told. He was 8 politician, but not partisan He knew that the machine was the foulest of all des- potisms. He was reformer. He believed in civil service. The fact that the govern ment was the best on the face of the earth was not enough for Garfield. His govern ment would have been as good and pure as any human being could have made it. Moth ing less would suit this man. He only stood upon the threshold of his great office, but how splendidly he stood there
 Manly, brave, the wars of factions waged around him. Political not personal differences beset him. but he never dreamed of prescribing airy man who only differed with him in matters of opinion
 How bravely he went down to his death. There hovered around his couch the spirit of fifty millions of people each uttering the words: ''How fares it with the beloved President to-day?" We caught in our breath the same choke as we caught the last words, ''Oh, Swaim'' His breath went out with the tide, but we know the spirit of James A. Garfield watches tenderly now and ever will over the country he loved so well. Universal love of God is joined wish the uni versal brotherhood of man. Immense but subdued applause greeted the eulogy.
