AFTERNOON PARADE.

New YORK, Nov. l.
This afternoon Governor Cleveland stood
for over three hours on a review stand, next
to Worth's monument, under canopy of
purple velvet, fringed with gold, upon each
of whose corners was a golden eagle. When
he took his position, soon after four o'clock
Madison Square before him was packed with
people. The grand stand on the opposite
side on Fifth Avenue held at least 1000 ladies
with escorts. The grand stand was nearly
decorated with flags and banners. The roar
of murmurs announced the coming of the
procession. During the entire parade and
all along the line was extraordinary. At
times there were cheers for Blaine and
Logan among the spectators and several pic
lures of Blaine were exhibited on the side
walks and cheered, but was all taken in good
part and no serious trouble occurred, although
there we're blows exchanged in front of the
post office where several employees in the
federal building waved q large portrait of
Blaine. Where Cleveland went from the
stand to the hotel the crowd raised another
shout that lasted several minutes The gov
ernor had great trouble to get across the
street so dense was the crowd. careful
estimate of the men in line is 27 900.
TAMMASY's PARADE,
Tammany Hall parade took place this

delegation from the business mems clubs
made way TO the stand. Immediately after

BLAINE'S CALLERS.
A Delegation of Catholics Call on Mr..
Blaine.

New York, Nov. .
Blaine, being somewhat fatigued from his
continuous lsbors of the week did not leave
his room at the Fifth Avenue hotel. Late in
the evening a delegation OF Catholics, headed
by Patrick Ford, editor of the Irish World,
called to extend their congratulations TO Mr.
Blaine. on the manner in which he referred
to Rev, Mr.. Burchard's infelicitous remark
at the late meeting of ministers in this city
In reply to congratulations Blaine reaiiirmed
the position he had taken in his New Haven
speech. He said
Religious liberty is the absolute law of
our land. Freedom of conscience is the in
aliensble right of every American citizen,
native or uaturalized. Whoever violates that
freedom strikes at the foundation of the
republic. As a Protestant, | demand for the
Catholic precisely the same liberty, the same
respect for their conscientious belief that
claim for myself. Perfect religious liberty
is the highest attainment of our free consti-
tuition and that liberty implies mutual toler
ance, respect for each others rights of con-
science and the generous spirit of christian
charity"
The members of the Catholic delegation
expressed themselves entirely satisfied with
Blaine's frank expressions on the subject
from his standpoint as q Protestant. Mr..
Ford remarked that it was very gratifying
circumstances that in an excited campaign in
which five millions were taking
part This remark of Rev. DR..
Burchard's associating romanism with rum
and rebellion was the first and only word
spoken so far as he had heard tending to
wound the feelings of Catholics and from
this he argued the great popular advance in
the spirit of religious toleration, courtesy
and charity in the United States.

A POLITICAL AFFRAY.
An Attempt at Questioning a Speaker
Brought 10 an End With Blows.

Bosros, Nov. l.
Blaine sympathisers filled Faneuil Hall this
afternoon, being the third business mems
rally. While Thomal b. Reed of Maine,
was speaking, young man in the audience
asked him, did you or did you not offer an
objection to the propositions by Mr.. Hewitt.
asking TO investigate frauds in the Navy de-
partment" Judge Hoar, who presided, rose
to protest against such personal questioning
to an invited speaker, but the man upon the
floor continued. did you, or did you not,
Mr. Reed!" 81 did, promptly replied Con
gresham Reed. "And | want to say further
but he was not allowed to continue further
and the audience broke out into storm Put
him OUT" ''Don't answer the fellow -
Whats the question:" and like that and
then arose a scene of confusion. Judge IIoar
attempted TO introduce the next speaker
when the same man tried to make further
comment. Those near him hustled him, and
he suffered considerable violence from the
crowd. There was scene of great confusion
Judge Hoar and Henry Parkman called loudly
on the police to protect the gentleman, but it
was some time before the men around him
desisted and he succeeded in reaching the
door. Half a dozen policemen. upon the call
OF Judge lloar, jumped into the thick of the
confusion and surrounded the man. They
were Obliged to use clubs in quelling the dis
turbance. On reaching the door it appeared
that the man who made the disturbance was
not injured and the sufferers by the episode
were those in the crowd who came under the
officers club. Judge Hoar in emphatic lam
guage denounced any attempt at violence, in
public meeting. The gentleman had, he
believed, no intention to make disturbance
and it was unworthy of anv decent man to
offer violence to any man who asked an honest
question. The meeting quieted down, pres
emily, and then Judge Hoar introduced Gen
James A Hall, of Maine.
The questioner of Reed, in Faneul Hall
meeting, was J. W. Mahoney of south end.
formerly clerk in the United States Ropewalk,
at Clnrlestown Nary Yard. Mahoney saws
he asked in polite and gentlemanly way, if
he did not oppose Hewitt's resolution, asking
for an investigation of frauds in the Navy
department. He had taken his seat and at
first seemed disinclined to answer, but finally
said be had done so. BY that time many
persons in the hall had become so excited
that it was impossible for man to be heard
without shouting, and the attempt to ask a
few important questions was greeted with

connected with the attempted Naval investi-

THE CRY OF SIRE"
Creates a Panic m the Star Theatre al
GlasgOw-Sixteen Killed and Twelve
Others Seriously Injured.

GLASGOW. Nov. /.
The cry of fire at the Star Theatre
tonight created panic which resulted in the
death of I6 persons and serious injury to IL
others. When the cry was heard the audi.
ence made rush for the doors. A great
mass of people from the pit met the crowd
descending the stairs from the gallery and a
fearful block ensued. The crowd was urged
by the attaches of the theatre and the police
to hold back, but the appeals were unheeded.
The crazed crowd frantically rushed towards
the outlets, tramping and jumping over each
other until they reached the street When
the theatre was finally cleared l6 corpses
were found on the stairs leading from the
the gallery and IL persons were so badly
injured that they only gave evidence that life
was not extinct by their piteous moaning.
On the fret alarm being run through the
city the whole fire brigade quickly went TO
the rescue and with the police did their
utmost to allsy the panic and rescue the
victims, but they were too late to be of much
service. The police, aided by volunteers,
rushed into the building and endeavored to
keep the entry clear. Il was subsequently
learned that the author of the cry was q dis
charged emyloyee Of the theatre. The audi
ence numbered about 1000.
Another account says the cry Of "fire" was
raised by man in the audience who was
drunk. He has been arrested.

MORE HAZlNG.
The Dark Ages Re-Introduced at Bow

BRUNSWICK, Nov, |,

BRUNSWICK, Nov. |.
Last night, the Sophomore class of Bow
doin College Cor a considerable number
thereby deliberately decided that it was nee
essary to 'haze" members of the Freshmen
class in order to reduce them to subordination
The rooms of several Freshmen were forci-
bly, entered by considerable number of
Sophomores. The Freshmen were driven
from their beds in their night clothes, fore ed
to ride doors, forced to get on table and
agree they would stand at prayers Gas the
other classes do not.) In one case a Fresh
man was dropped from the table 20 the floor
because reluctant to surrender his freedom
of action, and another was considerably de-
prived of cuticle in the door riding feat to
which he was forcibly assisted. There was
great uproar and some of the Juniors looked
on, justly denounced the Sophomore barb
arism, | am glad to say. The names of l2
of the offenders are known. Among the
hazed was q son of Governor Robie, an ex-
cellent and gentlemanly young man.

Bloodshed at New IbeFia-Eighteen PER-
sons Killed.
Nrw ORrEANs. Nov. l.

N.w 0RLEANs, Nov. l.
A despatch from New iberia to Picsyune,
says; At the kellogg meeting, Lsreauville,
today, some negroes got INFO difficulty. Joe
Gilfoux attempted to quiet them. when he was
fired upon by negro. The ball penetrated
his hat, and he returned fire but without
effect. By this time there was general
resort to fire arms. Joe Gilfoux was the first
to fall, shot dead, Tie was one of the best
citizens and was democrat Sheriff Victor
has been brought in here wounded. but not
dangerously. The persons who brought him
say that X Bell, democrat, also was shot
dead and that Abner Boutte, q colored poll
tician and three other negroes were killed.
Jules WestSyer and Judge Fonlelieu are
reported among the wounded. The excite
ment is very great and the particulars are
difficult to be obtained. A squad of armed
men left for the scene of the conflict The
town is picketed and will be patrolled tonight.
A large number of prisoners were brought
in at 8 o'clock by armed men and lodged in
Jail. The most reliable and impartial reports
are to the effect that the republicans went to
Lareauville, expecting trouble, and that it
commenced among negroes. Judge Fontelieu
is not wounded as at first reported. F. Dugas
and st. Claire Dugas are reported wounded,
and many others were wounded but they got
away, Most of the reports agree in stating
that negroes were killed; but as the negroes
staInpeded after the first fire, IL is not possi-
BILE to know how many were wounded,
Information from republican sources give
quite different color to the affair which oc-
cured at Lareauville. A Blaine, Logan and
Kellogg meeting was being held there, which,
it is alleged, was broken up by armed demo-
Gratis who fred at the speakers and into the
assembled republicans. Eight men were
killed. All the republican speakers were
arrested by the local militia and committed
to Jail without authority of the law.
The prisoners are still in Jail and probably
will have preliminary hearing tomorrow.
Coroner Manhill reports l6 negroes and 2
whites killed Two men were killed from
the first voley. Pistols taken from the bod
les show that they had not fired a shot when
fred on.
