THE DUBLIN HORROR.
4 Brother of Secretary Burke
Charging the Crime to Ihe Spirit
of TOryism.

A Lafayette, Indiana, special dated May
s, says: "In a speech before the Lafayette
Land League, DIR. Burke, of this city, a
brother OF one of the victims OF the Pheuix
Park assassins, paid an eloquent tribute to
the worth of the Under Secretary. He said ::
'I know that his death will be speedily
avenged. l know that no Land League IN
Ireland and no Land League here had a
hand in this cowardly deed. Ireland and
England are on the verge of a true recon-
ciliation, and no true patriot, no true Irish
man, ever committed the fearful and das-
tardly deed. The spirit of ToTyism is alive
to the dangers of the situation. The
strength of the Land League is not only
Scotland, and soon will have one in
England. What then becomes OF land
lordism in these countries? =? What then of
the ill-gotten wealth. prestige, and honor
of that so called conservative power, great
only by the greatness of its accumulated
funds and crimesf Believe me 1t Is the
spirit of that TorYism that has armed the
men who murdered my brother. As for
you, my friends and fellow citizens, all l ask
Of you is that you raise your voice. against
this monstrous assassination, and enter
public protest against such foul and cow
ardly proceedings. 1t will be a consolation
to my sorrowing brother and my disconso-
late sister, and token of American respect
for brother and friend who is no more.'
"The Land League adopted resolutions
denouncing the assassination in strong
terms. The doctor was much affected at
times, so that he could hardly proceed.

ton, Of Georgia. The President announced
the committees.

operations among the Jews in this and
otner countries, and the appointment of
proper men for the prosecution of this spe-
cfal work. The resolution was referred to

A resolution by Joshua Levering, of

bining and cooperating for the production
OF a new translation Of the Bible, and giving

Church at Shanghai, China, containing the

trained for the active duties of the ministry.

Northern Beef on Southern Tables.
NetU York Herald

The pleasing news has come North
thSt on the bills of fare at some Southern
hotels Northern beef is specified. II
good beef reaches the hotels, there is no
reason why it should not also reach pri-
vate tables in the South. Should it find
It's way to these the average physical
and intellectual condition in the South
will improve. The Southerner is natu-
rally very good fellow, but he rarely
learns how to take care of himself, and
as fat pork does not kill him at short
notice, he is too frequently willing to
make it his only kind of meat, the re-
suits being greatly to his own detriment.
Tlere is no more hospitable fellow in
the world than the Southerner; any
wayfarer who does not look like a DO
litical tramp is welcome to partake of
his hog and hominy; but the trouble is
that while the wayfarer is likely to get
something better to eat in the course of
time the native is not, and as a conse-
quence he is sometimes very bilious,
suspicious and bellicose. Rational food
would do the South more good than her
entire store of political platitudes, and
the appearance of Northern beef on
Southern tables is pleasing promise of
better things to come. That she may
enjoy Northern beef, take it into her
true inwardness and be the better for it,
will be the earnest wish Of every man in
the North, although not one in hundred
thousand has any interest in the beef
business.

THE GUANO DEAL.
The subcommittee In New York.

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE sub-Commit-
tee Of the House Foreign Affairs Committee
to-day examined George T. Bliss, of the
firm of Morton, Bliss & Co., In relation to
the firms contract with the Credit Indus
triel Company. After giving the details of
the contract as testified to yesterday by MIR.
Randall, Mr.. Bliss said he had not, nor had
he any reason to believe that any member
of his firm had, brought any influence to
bear on the United States Government to-
wards securing mediation between Chilli,
Peru and Bolivia.
Mr. Morton, the senior member of the
Arm, was advised of the important under
taking of the house, but the contract with
the Credit Industriel Company was re-
garded as of small consequence, aud moth
ing was said to Mr.. Morton about It. The
contract was still in force, but no business
had arisen from 1t. Witness neither knew
nor heard of any foreign minister using his
official position towards securing mediation
by the United States. Mr.. Bliss said he did
not seek business with the Credit Industriel
Company, but was called upon By Mr. Ran
dali, counsel and Suarez, agent of the COM
pany.
The cable correspondence between Mr.. Ran
dali, in Paris, with the New York house of
Morton, Bliss & Co. was placed at the ser
vice of the committee. Witness firm had
never sought 70 secure mediation by the
United States Government between Chill
and Peru. Mr.. Morton was appointed Min
lister to France in March, and the negotiations
with Randall began in May. He did not
think that the fact of Mr.. MortOn's
being Minister had anything to do with
placing the contract in the hands of Morton,
Bliss & Co. Witness never spoke to the
President or the Secretary of State in rela-
tion to mediations by the government, and
the proposition of mediation did not in
fuence him in making the contract with the
Credit Industriel Company. He had no
reason to believe that Minister Morton ever
acted improperly in the matter, and did not
think be knew or had any correspondence
with Jacob r Shipherd.
Mr.. Randall was examined in the after
noon. He had called upon Secretary
Evarts to induce him to interfere In the
South American troubles. Mr.. Evarts said
he was interesting himself in behalf of
peace, but declined to have anything to do
with financial schemes.
Mr.. Blaine had regarded the scheme of
the company favorably, and at Mr.. Blaine's
suggestion Mr.. Randall suggested VIM. E.
Chandler as proper person for Minister TO
Peru. He also named Gen. Hurlbut. Mr..
Blaine had said to Mr.. Randall that the in
structions given to the latter were favorable
to the Credit Industriel Company. On No
vember 80 Mr.. Blaine told witness that he had
submitted mediation proposition to Presi-
dent Arthur, who entirely approved of it.
Mr.. Randall said emphatically that neither
be nor any representative of the Credit In
dustriel Company directly or indirectly ever
had any relations with General Hurlbut, and
that the company never spent dollar in an
improper way.
