 NEW YORK, July 21.-The advance guard of the Independent Republican delegation of Massachusetts reached the Fifth Avenue Ho- tel from Boston this morning. The gentle men registered as Phineas Pierce, George F. Williams, Winslow Warren, Moses Williams, William E. Stow and George Shell. All but the last two are delegates to the Independent conference to be held in the University Club Theater tomorrow morning. After break fasting the six gentlemen took possession of two settees in the hotel lobby and waited for the day to grow older. They were unani- nous in the belief that the Republicans would as a result of the Independent movement lose Massachusetts in November. "Our move ment daily gains new strength in the East, J said Mir Pierce, and is much more extensive and formidable than the Blaine leaders are willing to admit. The Independents are thoroughly in earnest and will without excep- tion vote for the candidate to be agreed upon by to-morrow's conference, who will in all probability be Governor Cleveland"

 LONDON, July 21.-The trades demonstra- tion to-day at Hyde park in favor of the franchise bill was a tremendous success. The procession, which was composed of eighteen sections representing the different trades, and twelve sections comprising various political clubs, was the largest ever seen in London. The weather was showery, but did not damp en the enthusiasm of the processionists, and the published programme was fully carried out About ten thousand agricultural la borers were in the procession, and each ot them held aloof ten-foot pole gayly deco rated with ribbons and showy devices. A printing press mounted on wheels was in line, from which were scattered among the crowds on the sidewalks, copies of the resolution denouncing the conduct of the Lords in re- iecting the franchise bill. The mounted farriers and members of the farriers' society, two hundred strong, made splendid show ing, as did also the numerous other trades societies, temperance and friendly societies and workingmen's organizations. The pro cession moved in the following order: Mounted farriers, agricultural laborerTTr erTTrsdas SinoAo. uo uopUDstie p.aeon1atives from the printing, oookbinding, paper, iron, metal, clothing, loesher, shipping, building, cabinet-making, fancy goods, and general trades, political clubs, Liberal associations, temper ance bodies, and friendly societies.
