Mrs. Parneu penniless.

Special to the Globe.
New York. May 3O.-The entire per-
sonal property of Mrs. Della F. Stewart
Parnell mother of the Irish land Lacquer,
has been seized at the suit of Joshua j.
Turner and others, and is advertised for
sale at Ironsides, June Is. The old and
historic county seat at lronsides overlooks
the Delaware river four miles above Borden
town, N. j., and there formerly dwelt
Admiral Stewart, Mrs. ParnelFs father.
Mr. Parnell endeavored in vain for two
years to make the place pay as a summer
boarding house 1t represents almost his
entire fortune, and if it should be sold she
will be left almost penniless. Her son,
John, invested heavily in Delaware peach
farms, and year after year has lost his
crops. until Mrs. Parne1l, who was backing
the enterprise, has sunk about $105, 900.
This was FIVE years ago. John gave up
and went to Ireland. Then Mrs. Parnell
started her summer boarding house and
failed. She gave freely to the Land league
cause, and bore all the expenses of her
famous trip throughout this country. organ
izing the Ladies' Land league. For several
months past she is said to have speculated
in Wall street, hoping to repair her fortune,
but she lost steadily. Although now EN-
gagged in writing novel, Mrs. Parnelfs
mind is said to be somewhat affected. Her
poverty only became known whan the sale
was announced.

PORT DEPOSIT, Nd, May 80. = At
Woodlawn this morning, Charles P. Barnes
met his brother-in-law, Thomas A. Brown,
and without the least provocation and
in cold blood shot and killed him.
Barnes then went into his house, calling hi
-year-old son, shot and killed HIM. See :
ing his second son a short distance away, the
inhuman father opened fire on him also, but
the lad escaped with slight wound. The
sheriff, knowing Barnes desperate charac-
ter summoned posse, captured him, and
hurried him to Elkton jail, fear
ing that he would be lynched by
the excited neighbors. A coroner's

him short time ago. He may have sup

this separation.

BATTLEFoRD, May 3O.-The steamer
Northwest, en- route to Pitt, came across
James Grant and Charles Rossiter in a
canoe sixty miles up the river. They left
Pitt Thursday night with dispatches for
Middleton, a fight between Strange's force
and Big Bears band having taken place
that day. Rossiter informed your CORE
spondent that Big Bears location had been
discovered on Wednesday and an advance
made the following morning. AS the whole
OF Strange's troops had not yet arrived at
Pitt he could only muster about three
hundred men. The force consisted of two
companies of Winnipeg light infantry. two
companies of the Sixty-fifth battalion at
Berta, mounted infantry, and Can't.
Steele's police scouts. A march of
ten miles down the river and three miles
inland brought the troops to the Indian
camp OF redskins, who were intrenched
just over the brow Of the hill, and, in order
to reach them, Strange was obliged to cross
marshy valley. While advancing the
Indians commenced firing, and
the troops were extended in
skirmishing order. For three hours
ciA.l q ldA d StcdSly llI0 WAS kept up from
both sides. Troops had good cover in the
shrubbery from the fire of the enemy. The
held gun did good service in driving the
Indians from their quarters, but
the number killed could not
be ascertained. Strange's loss is very slight,
only three men of the Sixth-ffth being
wounded. Narcotic of No. g company
was fatally wounded and two in
the Fifth company. The troops
retired in good order to Eitt.
The Sixty-fifth company came down the
river in scow, and joined the main body
on an inland march. Thirteen men were
left behind to guard the provisions on
board. After the fight the scow
could not be found, and the men
or the scow have not turned up since.
Rossiter also says that Steeles men had a
skirmish with the Indians Oh Wednes-
day and one Indian scouG was
killed and scalped. Strange wants
some reinforcements and ammunition.

lice we turned back, arriving here late to-

Gratis of this city and of this collection dis

known to-day that the president had re-
appointed Isaac j. Young collector of inter
nal revenue. Young was first appointed by
President Grant in 1869 and has held the
Office ever since. 1t is claimed that he is
! and has been an offensive PARTISAN in
every sense of the term. They say he has
used his office in the interest of himself and a
few of his friends. q man who claims to-
know whereof he speaks, said to day:
'sYoung has manipulated every Republican
state convention since 1872. He has
stumped the state in every campaign, and
