Will Stop Boycotting,

DUBLIN. Dec. 16.-In an interview to-
day, Mr.. Harrington said that 1000 Ma
tional league branches, averaging 800
members, had donated e12, 900 sterling to
the executive committee during the present
year. He said that some Of the National
lists members of parliament would receive
salaries from the league. The extinction
of the Liberals, he thought, would i'm
mensely benefit the Irish cause. He
considered that this defeat was due to the
appeals to the religious bigotry made by
Lord Harrington in his speeches at Belfast.
Mr.. Harrington also said that boycotting
was outside of the leagues program, and
that the practice was confined to few
branches. The executive committee, he
said, would not meddle with local affairs
generally, but would stop boycotting, when-
ever such power was misused.

floor on the rules, with an argument in
favor of the general feature of the revision,
but in opposition to the plan OF distributing
the work of the appropriations committee.
| Mr. Hiscock, a member OF the committee
on rules, presented the reasons which had
impelled him to agree to the report of the
majority. He said the distribution of APP
preparation bills did not Unnecessarily mean in
creased appropriations. The river and har-
Dor bill, instanced by Nh. Randall. had
practically never been under the jurisdic-
ton of the appropriations committee and
had been prepared by the commerce COM
mittee. The bills could be reported in
thirty days under the distribution plan.
Any bill could be reported in week after
the receipt of the estimates.
Mr.. Randall put against your remarks
your record us chairman of that committee.
Mr.. HiScock-I am entirely willing that my
record as chairman of that committee shall
be paraded before the house. Certainly, so
Tar as the presentment of the bills is con-
cerned. The record of that committee VIII
compare favorably with that of any commit
tee before or since.
Mr.. Randall think not.
Mr.. Hiscock-The gentleman had better
content himself with remaining in the fields
of speculation and thought on that subject.
Mr.. Randall go to the record
Mr.. Hiscock-I grant did not bring in the
bills early, but could if 1 had desired. l
held back the legislative and sundry civil
bills until way into January to force this
house TO vote on the internal revenue bill and
the little tariff bill.

pose to the country. 1t was done boldly. l
don't think that l should have had the power,
but, having mad it, l exercised it, and be-
lieve in this particular case it was wise leg1s-
lation.
Mr. Hiscock,,spoke with much earnestneSS
and at the conclusion of his speech he was
applauded and congratulated by his party
colleagues. He was followed by Mr.. Hol-
man of Indiana with an argument in oppo-
sition to the abolition of the clause Of the
rule known as the Holman amendment.
which enables legislation to be engrafted
on an appropropriation bill if it is in the
interest OF economy. Mr.. Wellborn OF
Texas confines his remarks to discussion
of the distribution feature of the report and
made strong argument in its support, dis
claiming, however. any purpose to criticize
the committee on appropriations. which
was composed of men of ability and hon
esty. Mr.. Blount did not believe the rem
edy for the trouble lay in either of the pro-
positions before the house. The proper
remedy was to take away from the COM
mittee on appropriations the power to put
single legislation proposition upon an ap-
preparation bill and then give to the other
committees a right to secure action on the
important business reported by them.
Without concluding the general debate the
house adjourned until tomorrow.

The Wife of DiaZ Said to be at the
Bottom of MexicO's Troubles.
LAREDO, Mex, Dec. 16.-The brother
of Gov. Sepulveda, who is now here, says
the entire difficulty in Nuevo Leon origin
ated in the personal rupture between Diaz
and Gonzales. Every one in Mexico says
that Sepulveda knows that while Diaz
was serving his first term as president he
entered into solemn compact to so shape
matters that Gonzales should succeed him.
Diaz faithfully fulfilled that compact and
so arranged matters in the seven great
Northern states that they all went for Con
Zales when the election occurred. When
Gonzales assumed the presidency he in turn
made similar compact with Diaz that the
latter should be again president. This
compact also was faithfully observed and
the two Caesars thus divide Mexico. Shortly
after Diaz was inaugurated last year Con
zales approached him for a revival of their
FORMER CONTACTS.
The promise was given $50 Gonzales

compact Diaz had but to leave the Northern

lies the hidden secret. Rubio is now cab
met officer. and with the powerful influence
of his daughter he has succeeded in causing
Diaz to violate his last compact with Con-
zales and the unmistakable signal of their
success is the accomplished fact that Goa
hula and Nuevo Leon, two powerful Con
zales states have been overturned and seized
by Diaz since his Inauguration. The heir
apparent is now Rubio and not Gonsales.

Special to the GIObe-
WASHINGTON. Dec. 16.-The discussion
of the house rules continues to be the chief
subject of interest here. The general i'm
preston is that while there is growing
sentiment among Democrats against Nor
rison's plan it will not be strong enough to
defeat the measure. Republicans are in
clined to believe that the change will result
in serious complications and greatly in
creased expenditures. and will in the end
result nnfavorablv for the party now in con-
troll of the house. They are, therefore
quite willing to see them passed, putting
the responsibility on the Democrats. Mr..
Randalrs followers are careful but not con-
fident. and it seems probable that since the
Republicans are inclined to help pass them
they will be adopted.

DETROIT, Dec. 16-An an early hour
this morning the village of Woodmere, a
suburb of this city, was the scene of a
horrible fire. Some men returning home
at $50 discovered the small frame
summoned, but before it arrived the
house was totally consumed. After day
light this morning search was began for
the bodies of the family. Knox was
found on the floor in the front room
with his wife in his arms, both bodies being
burned to crisp. A few feet away was
an unrecOgnizable mass, supposed to be the
remains of the oldest child, boy years
old. Of the nine months old baby there is
no trace. and it is supposed the body was
completely consumed. From the positions
of the bodies it is that Mr.. Knox, who was
an invalid. had overturned lamp and all
were overcome by the flames before help
could reach them. The family were: Frank
Knox aged 2S; Susan Whitman Knox,
aged %; George, aged 3, and Frank Albert,
aged 9 months.
PROBABLY MURDER.
Frank Knox was known to have money
in the house, which he had been saving to
make some payments. The searchers
in the ruins found a revolver, and it is
known that Knox never owned one. These
two facts lead to the suspicion that murder
was committed for the sake of robbery, and
the building then fired to cover up
the crime. The position in which
the ashes of the family were lying would
seem to oppose this suspicion. However
nothing definitely is known, everything
about the house having been completely con-
sumed. The body of the baby was not at
first found, and it was thought the flames
had entirely deyoured it. Later the search
ers found the crumbling ashes of what had
once been the youngest child. The coro-
ner's jury met and adjourned till later in
the week

Conservative Defeat Predicted.

LONDON, Dec. 16.-In an interview to-
day Mr.. Cowan, NJ. P, said that the Lib
erals would resume Office before March.
This was pity in view of Lord Salisbury's
foreign success. County boards would not
satisfy Ireland. If the Orangemen did not
fetter the Tories, the latter would speedily
devise satisfactory system of home rule.
1t was not likely that the Orangemen
would allow the Wings to prevent the Lib
erals carrying home rule measure
in the new parliament. There would
be a deadlock. and certain dissolution
within eighteen months. The parliament
would be uncertain and unsatisfactory. Mr..
Cowen himself was in favor of any scheme
of Home rule, allowing the Irish to manage
their own affairs, while upholding the in
tegrity of the empire. The first act of an
Irish parliament would be to establish pro-
lection. which England would not allow.
LONDON, Dec. 16.-Baron De Wormay,
