PHOENIX PARK MURDER TRIALS.
Delaney and Caffrev Plead Guilty ana
are Sentenced.

DUBLIN, May 2.
Patric Delaney and Thomas Caffrey, two
more men charged with participation in the
murders of Cavandish and Burke. were ar
raigned for trial before Judge O'Brien this
morning. They created q sensation by plead
ing guilty of the charge against them. They
were both sentenced by Judge O'Brien to be
hanged June I'd.
Before Caffrey pleaded guilty he was IN
formed that the crown gave no hopes OF mitl-
CATION of the sentance of death which would
be passed upon him.
When Delaney was called upon to plead,
he said: II am guilty of being in the park at
the time of the murder, but did not commit
the murder. plead guilty"
The Judge explained that this really
amounted to plea of innocence.
Delaney then formerly pleaded guilty. He
said: Il was brought into this at first fool
ishly, not know ing what it was. was forced
from my work to go to the park. We had to
obey the orders of the secretary or take the
consequence. When l got into the park

Northwestern Crop POspects.
FAVORABLE REPoRrs FROM MISSFsorA
Iowa. AND DAKOTA.

Reports from all parts of the Northwest
Indicate backward season with ia
vorable prospects for an abundant harvest
In Rock County, Mimi, seeding is about fin-
ished. with a probable decrease of 80 per
cent. in the wheat acreage and an increase of
20 per cent. in oats. The acreage of corn
and rye is about the same as last year. with
a decided increase in fax. At Belle Plsine
heavy rains caused a weeks DELAY. but seed
ing is now finished. There will be an in
creased acreage of corn in the southern part
Of the State if the present weather continues.
Corn seeding, which is 20 per cent. larger
than last year, will be completed by the
Middle of May. There will be a small de-
crease of spring and winter wheat. In Iowa
seeding of wheat, oats, barley, and rye is
completed, with the corn crop we'll in. The
prospects for an abundant harvest were never
better. In the vicinity of Grand Forks, Da-
kota. the acreage is larger than ever before.
with flattering prospects. At Sioux Falls,
Dakota, seeding is all finished, and many
early sown pieces of wheat are up and look
ing finely. The acreage will exceed that of
last yesr by fully IS per cent. The good
crops last year gave the farmers confidence,
and every available farm is being used. At
jamestown the acreage is IS per cent larger
than last year, with seeding well under way
All reports from Northwestern points indi-
cate a large crop of everything.

THE STAR ROUTE.
The Third Day Of Bliss Argument.

WAsHISGToN, May ,.
Bliss began the third day of his address to
the jurv in the star route trial this morning
He dwelt upon the testimony relating to atfi-
davits, and exhibited number vi papers.
They were closely examined by the jury. and
Clarence Shields (colored) wished to know
who was responsible for the papers and who
had signed them. He said he made the in
auiry because there were so many handwrit-
ings upon the papers.
Bliss furnished the information and pro-
ceeded with his address. Up to that point
he had confined his argument entirely to the
union contract aud recorded evidence. and
he asked the jury to consider well the case
as given upon that evidence, and 10 note
the many violations Of the law by the defend
ants.
In the roped summary of the evidence,
many of these acts were brought to the atten-
ton of the jury. Some of the defendants
said that Bliss would have the jury assume
that while Brady was the boy that climbed
the tree and shook down the apples, they who
caught them were innocent; that while the
boy should be punished, nothing should be
done to them.
1t was not possible that these things should
have been done without collision, said Bliss.
and he turned again to the affidavits as con-
frmatory to that declaration. He remarked
that the defence had striyen to convey the
impression that Rerdell was the great and
only rascal of the combination, but their OVID
testimony showed the utter Inconsistency of
this view.
When the court adjourned, Bliss had not
concluded his address.

Peach PROSPECTS Coon BUT BAD WEATHER
FOR POTATOES AND MELONS.
A correspondent of the New York Times in
Accomac county, Virginia writes that paper :;
| have been all over this peninsula during the
past three weeks from Wilmington, Del, to
Eastville, Va, and in every quarter the fruit
growers are anticipating an abundant fruit
crop The great fruit crop of the peninsula,
of course. is the peach. But very little at
tention is paid the cultivation of this fruit in
the two Virginia counties of the peninsula,
but the few orch rds there were not in full
bloom before April 20, or fully one month
later than last season. and that has been the
case all over the peninsula. They appeared to
be extremely healthy, and as the season has
been exceptionally favorable for the develop
ment of the germ of the peach only the most
unfavorabe kind of May weather can destroy
the crop. The cultivation of Irish and sweet
potatoes for the Northern market Is one of
the great industries of Virginia, and thous-
ands of acres are annually planted The
prospects for crop of sound potatoes from
the Eastern Shore of Virginia, this season
appears very poor, and that. if correct, will
prove serious matter for New York, because
very great part of the early potatoes sold
in that market comes from this part of
the State. The potatoes planted for the
early crop should have been growing very
finely now, but much of the seed
rotted in the ground. OF the sweet
potato crop little can be said with
safety, as it is too early to make any calcula-
tions. At this time last season hundreds of
acres OF them were planted and growing fine
ly, and very large crop was harvested last
season, and fine large sweet potatoes for table
use are now selling for so cents per bushel
But the growers here are Respondent over the
prospect. The watermelon crop of the East
ern Shores of Virginia is also very impor
tsnt one to the people of New York, and the
season is now so cold and so backward that
there is little hope of their being even an
average supply from here. Still, there will
be as many acres planted in melons and sweet
potatoes as usual

Gov. Butler WAITS All the Books Of the
Institution.
RnsroN. May 2.

BosTON, May 2.
Charles b. Marsh was recalled at the
Tewksbury examination, and the governor
asked him for a certain book which he claimed
was his private property, but would turn IT
over if necessary. The governor said he
wanted it, and in the broadcast possible way
he wanted to again demand every book Of
the institution. The witness said certain
appraisal books had not been delivered, when
the governor said these were the very books
he wanted on the question of the stealings OF
the institution.
After further sharp questions concerning
the books and action of the trustees in set
Ting the bills of the institution, State Treas
urer Gleason stated the method in which
Superintendent Marsh accounted for articles
sold from the almshouse which the governor
criticised as insufficient.
W. ID. Hawley of the auditors office said
the sales from the almshouse have had no
auditing or examination except as part of the
treasurers books. In former years General
Briggs had disallowed several bills.
did not Briggs fail of reelection the year
after?" inquired the governor.
Attorney Brown said Butler was in the re-
publican party then and ought to know all
about it.
This was followed BY a colloquy between
Butler and Brown.

BosToN, May 2.
The proposed lease of the Eastern to the
Boston and Maine Railroad met with decid-
ed obstacle in Boston today. The trustees
of the first mortgage bonds of the Eastern are
not satisfied that their trust will be properly
protected as the lease is understood by them.
They have taken measures to secure an in
junction against the lease being carried out.
An application to the supreme court has been
made by them and the necessary papers pre-
liminary to hearing upon the injunction
have been granted and were served upon the
officials of the Eastern road this morning.
The terms of the lease as far as it effects the
rights of the debtors of the Eastern have
been the subject of considerable discussion
The legislative act establishing the mortgage
requires that after paying per cent interest
all the net earnings shall be paid into the
sinking fund. 1t also provides that when
ever the debt is reduced to ten million dol
lars the sum of 100000 shall be paid into
same fund.

A VIGOROUS DEBATE
As TO Whether Butler is the State of
Massachusetts
BosroN, Nav 2.

BosroN, May 2.
In the House today there was warm de-
babate on appropriaring $4,000 for the sup
port of Tewksbury almshouse. Several
members contended that to appropriate less
than the amount estimated as necessary would
be to acknowledge that the governors charges
were well founded. Mr.. Cushing considered
the governors proposition to furnish money
to run the almshouse as an insult to every
member of the House. and Mr.. Means Of
Boston denounced it in vigorous terms. The
board of health was fully competent to sup
ervise the expenditure of money without
wastefulness, and it would be undignifed to
allow private persons to furnish money for
the expenses of the State institutions. Sew
eral members expressed the opinion that the
charges against the management were largely
exaggerated and overdrawn. Several mem
bers defended Butler.
Lively debate on the bill appropriating
$50. 900 for the expenses of the Tewksbury
almshouse vas continued today until five
O'Clock, the question being upon Buffers
proposition to cut the APPROPRIATION to S7O,-
600. After the debate the democrats flus.
tered until Ills to prevent the coming to
vote and the House finally adjourned without
a ballot.

A possibility Of trouble looms up in
California over the choice of the next Leg
islature and Presidential electors in that
State. The Legislature of 1881 failed to
divide the State into legislative districts.
though the constitution required it to
perform the work. So the new apportion-
ment for Senators will not take effect
until 1886, two years later than was
intended. This will not affect the cleo
ton for members of the lower House,
but it may cloud the title of the Senator to
be elected next year. The possibility of
a difficulty over the electoral ticket arises
from the Illegal method in which the bill
tor the Congressional apportionment
which controls that of electors was passed
by the democratic Legislature. This bill
was read once only, while the cOnstitu-
ton requires that all bills must be read
three times.

Cabinet Meeting.

A special meeting of the cabinet was held
today to consider the civil service regulations
now awaiting the presidents action. All
tine members were present except the attor-
ney general, who is temporarily confined to
his home by bad cold. The session lasted
about two hours and half. The regulations
as prepared by the civil service commission
was agreed upon without substantial change,
although it was decided advisable to change
the mode of expression OF certain rules. The
commission had conference with the presi-
dent before the cabinet met. The president
will approve the regulations as soon as they
shall have been altered to meet the above in
dictated views of the cabinet.
There was one question in connection with
the rules which the cabinet found it difficult
to decide and which in fact is still undeter-
| mined. The custom which is now observed
in making appointments in several of the ex-
ecutive departments, and which in the treas
ury has the force of law, is to distribute them
among States and Territories upon the basis
of population. 1t is questioned whether a
strict adherence to this rule would not in
many cases hamper the administration of the
civil service. and a majority of the members
| of the cabinet incline to the view that ap-
pointments under the new civil service rules
| should be made strictly upon merit as deter
mined by competitive examinations regard
less of the residence of the successful can
| didates. decision, however, has not yet
been reached by the cabinet upon this point.
| Dorman c. Eaton said that one of the
clauses of the new civil service law provides
| that appointment shall be distributed among
States and Territories in proportion TO the
population as far as practicable, but that as
| this clause comes with several others under
a common head of provisions. which are to
carried out only as far as good administra-
ton of the law will permit. He did not
think it would prove SQUIRE OF much diff
Guilty. He had not been advised OF the
action of the cabinet in this regard, but the
term of law, he thought, would be complied
with by making appointments during a given
period of year or two years approximate to
the quota as allowed to the States and Ter
ritories according to population.
