Orange and Gfesn-A Deadly Conflict
 Between the Two Factions of Irishmen
 several Towns i'm q State of Siege.
 ST. JoHNs, N. B., Dec. s7.-The four men who were instantly killed in the riot at Har Dor Grace yesterday were Jeans, Mercer, Callahan and Darmody. Some eight or nine others were seriously, perhaps fatally wound ed, and about twenty received slight flesh wound, among the latter being Inspector of Police Doyle. The procession of Orange men were filing through one of tho principal streets and the opposition mob which fired into them numbered several hundred and had formed at the river-head of the city and en- trenched themselves behind large mound of snow at place called Ships Head and fired as the procession passed. The town is at the white heat of settlements, also the neighboEtng town. Of Carbonear which has caught the contaaion. All business is sus- pended, shops are closed, private dwellings are barred and bolted and there are from one thousand to twelve hundred men armed to the teeth parading the streets. From the north shore of Conception Bay, twenty miles distant, gangs of men are hurrying in the direction of Gerboneer and Harbor Grace. The disturbance threatens to devel- op into appalling proportions unless the good sense of the law abiding element of those communities will come to the rescue. It is stated that the executive has cabled to Halifax for detachment of military.

Speaker CarlisIe's Committees Chair
 men Who Are Hot Satisfied With Their
 APpOintmen9s-BTr. Eaton of Our State
 Among the Number.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Some new cases of radical discontent with Speaker Carlisle's committees have been discovered. Mr. Eaton, of Connecticut, for instance, is re- ported to be very much dissatisfied with his assignment as chairman of the Committee on the Election of President. This commit tee ought to be one of the most important in the House. It was created immediately after the presidential complication of 1876. and it was hoped that before another presi- dential election it would have devised soma plan which would prevent the recurrence Of the dangers of that period. But the commit tee has not been able to accomplish anything and it is now regarded as @ minor one. Mr Eaton, having been a United States Senator, expected much more important position, but he was 8 very earnest advocate of Mr. Randall and declared that MT. Carlisle's tariff policy would ruin the prospects of the Dem ocratic party. It is to Eaton that the state- ment is attributed: I've have elected a Speaker, and lost the Presidency" This assignment of Eaton is regarded as punish ment.
 Speaker Carlisle says he has heard nothing from Mir. Cox since Monday, when he tele-
