RAGING FOREST FIRES.
Devastation Of Property on Long Is
Innd-EHOrts OTthe Citizens.

PATcHoGrr, l.. l., May 4.-The forest fire
is sull raging. and j. heading easterly, but
the wind has moderated. 1t commenced
at r. NJ. yesterday. in the burning brush
east of MedfOrd station, and soon spread
to the woods The wind blew gale from
the northwest, and drove it in a sOutheriy
direction toward BroOkhavCn, where heavy
timber stood. Here it became furious
and beyond all human control. The Gil
dersleeve homestead. half mile north OF
the South Side Railroad was the first to be
enveloped in the flames. 1t was occupied
bv a man named Glover. 1t was destroyed
with its contents 1t was valued at $1,000.
The fire then followed a south country road
until il reached the South Side Railroad,
where Joshua Carman's house stood. In
few minutes the flames here caught the
building, which was speedily burned down.
Its estimated value was 5000. The con-
tents were fortunately saved. The house
is insured. \ few years previously house
standing in the same spot was burned down
from similar fire. About two hundred
citizens turned out, and their efforts have
saved much valuable property. The total
damage will exceed $4,000.

SDecial Dispatch 20 the Register.
WH~ulNGToN, May 4-SOmething OF
sensation has been made here in Waiting
ton by the charge OF Mr. AthertOn, in
Louisville, that the whisky men who have
been here seeking legislation at the hands
of Congress have been the subject of at
tempt to blaCkmail. Mr.. Atherton is very
vague in his charges, and until he furnishes
some more specific, his charges will notsre'
ceive the attention of Congress. Mr.. Ather-
ton, in the interview printed in Louisville,
SAYS that a certain lobbyist here, connected
with an alleged newspaper approached
him, saying that he could control
Senator Dan Voorhees,. Senator Voorhees,
is very much outraged at the use nude
OF his name in this connection, and yesterday
introduced resolution looking to thor
ough investigation Of the matter. The reso-
luton ELECTED considerable debate, this after
noon all the speakers without exception, as
>erting confidence in the aggrieved Senator
but holding an investigation unnecessary.
This whisky bond bill that has been urged
so persistently by tie distillers in the past
two or three weeks is still pending before
the Senate Finance Committee. and will
probably come up for final action in few
days. II is the custom of defeated capital.
lists to talk about the blackmail of the lobby.
II is story that answers itself very
quickly Ii Mr. Athe rtOn or any OF his
associates have permitted themselves to be
blaCkmaled by any irresponsible person at
Washington, they have only themselves to
blame. The lobby is always an oyeresti-
mated quantity. Much of it is a mere con-
tidence game; for it goes without sayingin
these modern times that the men in
either branch Of Congress who are
directly purchasable with money
have become so limited in late
years as to be hardly recognized as a def
mite quality. Congressman are often in
huenced in different improper ways, but
fer anyone to imagine that he could get
measure through Congress by the payment,
directly. of money to members or Senators
is to suppose an abSurdity. There are
few hanger,on about public men who have
the mselyes no recognized standing and
who have no influence. They are, per-
haps, tolerated by these public men, who
10 not recognize the uses made of their
names. These men often impose upon
crcdulous capitalists who come here seek
ing for legislation and it is not at all i'm
probable that Atherton may have fallen in
with some OF these gentry. 1t goes with
out saying that any Of these irresponsible
men who claim to influence public men,
and who seek money payments on account
of their alleged influence, are frauds of
such transparent character as to deceive no
one at all familiar with Washington. G.

BLAINE'S FOREIGN POLICY.
Americans Not Entitled TO Better Treat

LONDON, MAY THE correspondence be-

on the subject of the publication in the
United States of Indictment to outrage in
Ireland is printed. 1t consists OF Il dispatch
from Earl Granville to Sir Edward Thorn
ton, dated June 2i. 1881, relative to the
united Ireland; a dispatch from Sir Ed
ward Thornton to Earl Granville, dated
June p, detailing a conversation with
Blaine; dispatch from Earl Granville to
Drummond dated July -, expressing sat-
isfacton at the views expressed by Blaine,
and dispatch from Earl Granville to West,
dated April 9th. In the latter Earl Gran
vile says, Il think it well TO state Sir Ed.
ward Thornton reported to me last sum-
mer that he had been confidently in
formed, through trustworthy sources, the
government OF the United States was not
DISPOSED to take too warmly the cause Of
American citizens, native or naturalized,
who went to England and Ireland with the
express object of agitating and then appeal.

considered there was no reason why snch
Americans should be entitled to better
treatment than lrishmen for the same
offence.

HOOP IRON CASES.
Land Grants Forfeited by Railroads.
NIltclnl Disp1teh b The RegLssr.


washington, May THE Secretary of
the Treasury SAID this afternoon that the
newspapers were in error, as indicated in
numerous private dispatches he hal re
ceivel. in stating that the hearing in the
forged car-@xie and splayed. hoop cases had
been postponed. The hearing, he said, will
be held oH saturday.
The House Committee on the Railroad
Grant Bill, have decided to report in favor
Of fOriciting the grants upon which the
railroad grantees have failed to cause work
to be done by way OF construction, and will
ask permission of the House to make sepa'
rate supplemental reports with reference to
other land Grant roads The lands recon-
the grants to seven Southern roads. First
on the list is the Gulf and Ship Island road.
Six sections Of land per mile were granted
by act OF August IL, 1856, for a road from
Brandon, Miss. 10 the Gulf of Mexico at
Ship Island. The map of location was filed
November -. 1861. No lands have been ap.
proved TO the State for said road and no
portion OF the road has been constructed.
The reservation of lands for the road ceased
ON August IL, 1S66. The Tuscaloosa and
Mobile road is the second on the list. This
road and the other five were given grants
under acts similar TO that for the Gulf and
ship Island road and in no case has any
portion Of any of the roads been construct
cd The remaining roads are the Mobile
and New Orleans, CoOSa and TenneSSe,
Elyton and Boards Bluff in Alabama;
Savannah and Albany, in Alabama, and the
Iron Mountain road of Arkansas. The num-
Der of roads to which lands have been
granted is thirty-nine, OF which the seven
in the list are the only ones with regard to
which there are no legal complications:

New CUMBERLAND, W. Va, May THE
Fickes. .Hanly shooting affair is still the
absorbing topic for discussion in this
neighborhood, and remains as much of q
mystery as ever. The parties themselves
refuse TO talk much, and all efforts TO OBJ
tain the real facts have proven futile.
1t has been demonstrated, however, that
the shooting was done farther away from
town than at first stated, as farmer living
fully seven miles from town says the
wounded man, in company with the woman
walked him up ct midnight, requesting as
sistance, stating that he had been shot in
the neck, but would give none of the par
ticulars.
1t is also learned that the parties did not
come into town by the same road they
started on the night of the shooting, but
arrived by an entirely different route. The
object in making these false statements has
not transpired.
Efforts have been made TO communicate
with the husband of Mrs. Hanly at Pitts
burgh, but it seems that he cannot be
found there. This causes some to infer that
that Hanly is lurking somewhere in the
neighborhood, probably awaiting the result
of Ficke's injury. 1t is also stated on good
authority that Mrs. Hanly ig seriously
wounded in the hand, evidently caused by
a stray bullet, and that she carries it in a
sling.
The friends of young Fickes have notified
the woman to leave town or they will have
her arrested, but she is defiant, and refuses
to emigrate worth a cent.
The wound in the young mans neck is
doing well, and the doctor thinks he will
undoubtedly recover unless he suffers re-
lapse.
The unfortunate part of this affair is,
that tke two leading characters in this
bloody tragedy are cousins. Mrs. Hanly's
father is is brother of young Fickes
father. Consequently the two families
naturally are at sSOrds' points. II the fine
points in the drama are not played out en-.
trGly satisfactory to all concerned there
may be- blood on the moon soon, and fair
luna may he obliged to hide her bushing
face and weep, as battle will surely be
