sPEER AND WILSON.

The Outcome of the Efforts Making to
Prevent the Confirmation Still I'm
certain.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-On Monday the
Senate judiciary Committee will act, 80 say
Emory Speer's friends, upon the nomination
of Mr.. Speer to be District Judge of the
Southern district of Georgia. The members of
the Georgia delegation who are opposed to
his confirmation do not think that the Jud1ci-
airy Committee will act so quickly. Senator
Colquitt has filed with the committee the pro-
tests and objections against Mr.. Speer's con-
tirmatOn.
1t is believed that the majority Of the com
mittee. unless they shall be controlled by par
tisan feelings, will not disregard these pro
tests and objections, and that the nomination
VIII not be reported favOrablY. or that at the
least its consideration will be postponed.
Both Messrs. Brown and Speer count upon q
favorable report Even if it should be favor
ably reported, Mr.. COlquItt hopes to defeat
its confirmation in the Senate.
WILSON'S CHANCES.
The nomination of Mr.. Wilson for Post
master at Savannah is hung up IN Il Post
Office Committee pending an Investigation by
the committee as to the truth of charges filed
with it respecting his conduct as an officer in
the internal revenue service. If these charges
are proved his nomination viii be rejected.
II not it will be probably confirmed.

THE IRTsH NATIONALIsTs.
Mr.. Parpeu Delivers an Address on an
"Trish Parliament"

CORK, Jan 2l-Mr. Parnell delivered q lee
turr here last evening before q crowded
audience on an 'Trish Parliament" He
euIogized in glowing terms the AID given to
the Irish National cause by Irish men and
women beyond the seas, and especially in free
America, where the eXiles had an opportunity
to see the wonderful advance made by that
country since its emancipation from English
misrule He reviewed the history Of past
PaTliaments IN Ireland, ana sald ne hoped
soon to see established at Dublin another
Parliament as able as that body OF which
Henry Grafton was the most brilliant Crna-
ment, and IN which he introduced MS I'M
mortal bill Of rights
Mr.. Parnell sald he fully be ieyed the re-
storation to Ireland of her own Pariia
mentary power was imminent. England was
already beaten in the heart, and glorious
Trishmen remained true to the cause and
themselves. In reviewing the history OF ire
land, Mr.. Parneu cOntended that between
1872 and the union Ireiand's pr05Deritv &d-
vanced BY leaps and bounds. The eX-
tension of the franchise, he sad,
would give Ireland representative
members Of Parliament instead OF represen-
tatiOn OF the English ollgarchy, and would
elicit the real opinion of the Irish people. 1t
was impossible for even the intOlerant English
Parliament to refuse these demands. 1t only
| remained for Irishmen to be as determined as
their comrades elsewhere to gain that resu-
tuition which was their right. and less than
which would never content them.
THE CLERGY AND THE IRISH.
LONDON, Jan. PA dispatch from a Rome
correspondent says that Mr.. Errington, un-
official representative of England at the Va
.tican, is urging on the Pope the adoption of
certain measures intended to render the Situ-
alton Of the Catholic clergy in Ireland easier.
Mr.. Errington also desires to reconcile the
continual conflict between the priests midi
v;dual political faith and the obedience they
owe to Cardinal McCabes orders, forblddng
them to have anything to do with politics.
The Pope. however, does not seem much i'm
pressed with Mr.. ErringtOn's arguments, and
declines to make any promises.

A Man and Another Mans Wife Found Ly-

NEW ORLEANS, April PA dreadful trag-
edy was discovered to-day at No. Ii6 Orange
street, when the police broke into the
house on the information that
there was something wrong there. Upon
bed lay two liieless bodies. They were those
of Mrs. Amilis Evans, wife of William Ev.
ans, member OF TarrePs police, and Caspsr
Wtnger, a grocery clerk. In the right side
of the womans head Just above the eye, wss
an ugly wound, from which the brain pro-
tTuded. The bullet which caused the death OF
the man entered the left temple and passed
omplstely through the head. At the in
qrest this afternoon Evans was arrested.
He said in substance that he came home at
the usual hour in the morning from his
work Of watching all night and went to
his wife's bed. room. There he saw her aud
a man tying on the bed dead, Just as they
were found. he picked his child up, baby
nine months old. and walked out, locking
the door and leaving the key In the lock.
he called q servant. Mamie Miller, and
gave the child to her and went
ont. The servant girl gave such evasivs
answers that her arrest was ordered.
The theory about the killing is
that Evans had an inkling OF his
wife's infdelity, came home in the morning
earlier than usual, surprised them probably
asleep, and shot them both. The pillow where
each head4sy was powder burnt.
