at the Departure of the Cadets-Yes-

gramme.
NASHVILLE, May 25.-Sunshine and
throngs continue to keep the management
OF the great drill in the most complacent
humOr imaginable. Prospects of a LOSING
game have given way to assurances OF
overlooking Golfers, and the only cause
for regret seems to be found in the ma
yoidable departure Of the Savannah
Cadets. Had their anticipations in the
drill not been made impossible if was q
iOregOne conclusion that tbev wouId
carry nome with them at least one of the
tempting prizes which now fall to the lot
OF Ihelr more fortunate rivals in arms.
As mas already been stated by the NEWS
correspondent, considerable money was
sIaked on the success of the Cadets. and
IN certain circles their discomfit is there
lore all the more regretfully received.
Today found the Crescent City Rifles
oil New Orleans, the faYOrites, and large
ODDS offered on their success went be9-
glng fOr takers. Such, it is safe to saw
however, would not have been the case
mad the Cadets remained, their hackers
III sporting circles being fully equal to
their friends in the social vortex.
Inc programme for to-day included an
artillery drill, experiments with GatIing
guns, dress parade and sham battle,
Ibe Washington Artillery drilled first
ana gave the finest drill ever witnessed.
IN IN tne opinion of many expert critics.
Inc Alabama State Artillery also showed
an efhcient drill. The contest lies be-
tween these two companies.
The sham battle and other events ofthe
day were watched by fully 1900 specta-
tors, and proved equally as entertaining
as the programme on the preceding dav.
IL Is expected that the awarding of the
prizes will be announced this afternoon
or evening, and preparations for departure
are evident on every hand.

To-day the Capcine is the universal IA

VIRGNIA'S VICTORY.
BOssism's Death KneIl Sounded in a
ROuSing Democratic Victorv.


RICHMOND, VA, May 2j.-The returns
received up to midnight were generally
satisfactory from Democratic stand
point, showing, as claimed, the effort
to reorganize the party on a winning basis
in July next to he practicable. On the
other hand, the Readjusters claim to have
received returns from a number of coun-
ties and towns showing gratifying gains.
The general returns, however, are meagre.
NORFOLK, May 25.-ElectiOn returns
from the neighboring counties indicate
considerable losses by the Malone Coali-
tiOn ticket. Norfolk county elects Les
ner, an anti-MahOne Republican, by
about $50 majority. Lyons, COalitiOnist,
has plurality of about 800 over DeZen-
dOrf, Republican, and Wilson, Democrat,
for Treasurer.
Portsmouth elects the Democratic ticket
by 260 majority.
Special dispatches from different sec
tiOns of the State, particularly the tide
water counties, show gains for the Demo-
Gratis although the returns do not gen.
orally announce whether a large or. small
vote was cast. The Readiusters, how
ever, claim that they have gained largely,
particularly in the white counties, while
in the counties with cOlOred maiOrities
they have had some losses through the
means of split tickets. With such con-
tlicting statements, and the fact that only
One-third of the State is heard from, it is
impossible to give satisfactory summary
of the result.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 25.-Gov. Hamil-
ton, of Illinois, has telegraphed President
Crandall that whenever the Sheriff OF
st. Clair county, Illinois, officially mott.
/ fies him that he is to afford protection to
/ the men who desire to work in the mines
/ he will call out the militia and maintain
order. 1t is not likely that any attempt
/ will be made by the mine owners to re-
sumo operations this week, but there will
probably be combined movement to re-
open the mines next week.
A special dispatch from Collins
vile, Illinois, says: 'The situa-
tion to-day is more strained than it was
yesterday. Not a single mine of the
Nandalia Railway, between East St.
Louis and Troy, is in operation, and they
are all closely watched by the strikers.
Mayor Stevens last night ordered the
saloons closed at O'Clock, and swOre in
a force of fifty deputies. AS the
drunkenness increased among the
miners eighteen or twenty shots
were fired about midnight in spirit of
deviltry. At o'clock this morning 800
striking miners assembled mesa the Abbey
mines, and when they ascertained that
the men driven off yesterday had not re-
turned they detailed 30 men to remain
and see that no attempt was
made to start up. About 200
started on the railroad track. A
picket was left at No. 3. When
Collinsville was reached they were told
that no attempt at work would be made
to-day. They then started for the Con-
hdence and Troy miners. A con-
splcuOuS feature of the process
sion was dozen men carving
kegs of beer upon their shoulders. No
work is beng done at the Confidence
mines, but the strikers are suspicious.
Upward of one hundred stopped there.
Beer was tapped and scenes of disorder
ensued. superintendent Weisenburg
telegraphed to DepRty Sheriff Lanbeim
that his property was surrounded
by bowling mob and in danger, and
called for assistance.
At Bellville and CareyYille the miners
were forced by strong delegation from
the mines on the Ohio and Mississippi
road. Those who did not remain at Con-
fidence pushed on to Troy, seven miles off,
and surrounded the BrOokside mine,
which is the last on the Vandalia road.
1t was in operation yesterday but on the
appearance of a mob this morning the
men struck work. The Brookside super
intendent also telegraphs invoking the
aid OF the law. The situation is critical
and the crisis will be reached tonight.
TROY, N. Y, May 25.-The striking

PariShfonarc

Pope LeO's Stand Explained to the
ParishiOners.
THURLEs, May 25.-Archbishop CrOke,
preaching from his pulpit in the Cathedral
to-day, said that the Pope had expressed
sorrow that Ireland was troubled owing
to the lawIess views of a certain class
and to secret societies. Archbishop Croke
eXhorted the people not to allow word
of condemnation to escape their lips
against the Pope, who, he said, was their
best friend. When the Archbishop was
in Rome, the Pope, in addressing him,
said, ''I am as good an Irishman as you
are.' The Archbishop expressed his in
tentiOn of Obeying the POpe's commands.
The Archbishop said that the Pope
spoke to him concerning the menacing
state of Europe, and said that he feared
that even in Ireland, which had been a
great consolation to him, the spirit of
lawlessness had seized upon large sec
tion of the people. The Archbishop said
he assured him that there was no lawless-
ness IN his diocese, and that no notable
crime had been committed there. He said
that all the Pope blamed the Irish people
for was crimes, which both he (the Arch
bishop and his flock had always done
their utmost to denounce. On parting
the Pope gave him his blessing, and
assured him of his good wishes. After
the Archbishop had concluded his speech
crowds of people with bands paraded
through the streets of the town. Frequent
cheers were gwen for Mr.. Parnel.
LONDON, May 25.-The Daily Ne1cs cor
respondent at Rome says that the Pope is
satisfied with the result of his circular to
the Irish Bishops, and that he expected it
would be received with more opposition
than has been shown to it.
DUBLIN, May 25.-JOhn Behan, CORE

A CRANKY" FRESHMAN.
He Forces His Way into the British
Legation at Washington.


4 "No"t"VSVH Cpectut.
There is a good deal of excitement in
/ police circles tonight over a mysterious
| arrest at the British Minister'S residence
early this morning.
An IrIshmen giving the name of LOOney
was taken into custody while attempting
TO gain an entrance to the British Min
ister's house at about o'clock this morn.
ing. When the story leaked out to-day
1t was stated that LOOney was a lunatic
and had been sent to the insane ASYLUM.
inquiry at the asylum, however, elicits
the information that no such man has
oeen sent there and that they never even
heard of him.
Further inquiry leads to the belief that
Looney is being secretly held by the police.
and that he is not a lunatic, as was
claimed.
1t is reported that he was attempting to
force his way into the Legation for the
purpose OF committing an act of violence,
though what act is not said.
Inquiries in this regard lead to the dis
cOvery that two or three policemen have
been constantly on duty at the British
Minister'S mansion for several nights
past, and that tonight Lieutenant of
police and whole squad of men are on
duty there.
The attaches of the Legation profess not
to be disturbed over the occurrence of this
hiOl hlhSs puO tlle presence OF Lne police
there shows that much more Significance
is attached to the matter than they are
willing to admit.
But little can be learned of the details
of Looney's examination to-day. 1t seems
to have been at once rigid and unsatisfac-
tory. 1t is not known that either docu
ments or dynamite were found upon his
person.
The police insist that he is a crank, and
that he has been so treated. Still. if is
known that he is in custody, and that to-
morrow he will be more carefully eX-
amined as to his cOnfederates, if he has
any, his antecedents and his purposes.
The attaches of the Legation laugh at
the report that they fear injury from
Irishmen, nevertheless the police are
guarding the Legation jealously, and the
troops at the arsenal are ready to suDpOrt
the police if the latter need them.
1t must be remembered that the British
Legation differs from every other in that
the title of the legations handsome home
on Connecticut avenue is vested in the
Crown. Any damage to it is damage to
an English house on English soil tenant
ed by a representative of the English
Queen.
In this connection the current report
that the eXtradition of President AleXan-
der Sullivan, of Chicago, has been de-
manded becomes exceedingly interesting.
Other prominent Irishmen are said to
be included in this demand
