FENIANs TO INVADE CANADA. A Projected Raid Leaks Out By
 Accident.

BOSTON, May 15.-A Troy, N. Y., special to the Globe says that rumors of prospec- tive Fenian raid into Canada have for some time been current there, which rumors could not be traced to their source. The Times tonight prints the details of the pro jected invasion. It states that startling re- ports of the intended raid having reached Washington and been brought to the atten- tion of Secretary Bayard by the British minister the United States government off cers on the frontier are instructed to be on the alert to discover and report any warlike measures that may be taken. The Times ex- plains that the suspected plot leaked out in this way: Lester Fadden, farmer in Sutton, P. O., was awakened one night by noise in his barn. Fastening thtiher he surprised number of men who had effected an entrance apparently to steal his horses and fled at his approach. leav- ing in their haste several papers show ing complete plans of Canadian bar racks, the force and disposition of British troops, maps of adjoining States, To- cations of places where horses, arms and pro visions could be obtained together with other matters which might be useful to an invading force. Mr. Fadden at once transmitted these documents to the Canadian authorities with the result as stated.

 Roofs 60 Escape the Flames.


 Roofs 60 Escape the Flames.
 CLEVELAND, May 15.-At 10:45 tonight an alarm of fire was sounded from the corner of Prospect and Ontario streets and all the engines within the district promptly respond ed. The fire was first discovered in the store of the Cleveland Provision company, 142 and IA Ontario street, and spread so rapidly that in five minutes after the first alarm second and third were rung, which summoned the entire department. In an al most incredibly short time the flames had enveloped the whole block containing the retail department of the provision company and had reach ed the northern portion of the Prospect Hotel On the north side of the provision company's building was another containing the dry goods store of H. M Brown and other smaller establishments In spite of the efforts of the department this building was soon burning fercely. So and occupants that the loss could not be as ries of the provision company's building fled by every avenue of escape, some jumping from the windows on to sheds in the rear. One man whose name could not be aseertained jumped from high story upon an awning and went through, striking the sidewalk with a. terrific thud. He was picked up and taken away in an ambulance. probably fa- tally injured. The fire was still raging at i a. m. It is thought the firemen will be able to collfine the fire within the limits de- scribed. The Cleveland Provision company s building will be total loss.

LoGAN,s MEN HOWLRD DOWN.


 A Wild Scene i'm the Illinois Leg1s-
 1ature Which Ends i'm a Compro-
 mise. -
 SPRINGFIELD, Ill.,, May 15.-The first two hours of the morning session witnessed one of the most tumultuous scenes ever enacted in the legislature. Speaker Harris took the chair precisely at s:30, but it was some minutes later when theI proceedings were opened. Ruger and Sittig were absent. As soon as the gavel had fallen Senator Mason demand ed that Weaver, the newly elected rep resentative, be admitted to seat in the joint assembly. This was received with tornado of stNoes." Chairman Haines, amidst roars of applause ironi- cally asked, "Who is this Weav er?" and further suggested that it would be well if the joint assembly would see that all it's legitimate members were present be- fore discussing the admission of outsiders, and Senator Mason again demanded the ad- mission of Weaver, and Haines as promptly declared the motion out of order. The de- cision was appealed from, the nays and yeas called, and the decision sustained, the Re publieans declining to vote. All this time the uproar was indescribable. When the vote had been announced Haines de- clared that ballot for Senator was in order. Again Mason, reinforced by Fuller, objected. ''It was," he said, "past 10 o'clock, the regular hour for the meeting of the Senate and House, and therefore a matter of fact the joint assembly was dissolved until noon" !" Copious extracts from the proceedings of the United States Senate were quoted in support of his position. But the occupants of the seats on the Democratic side shouted louder than ever for the roll call. In the midst of the uproar Lieutenant Governor Smith mounted seat and in stentorian tones requested the Republican sen ators to withdraw. As one man they rose to their feet and filed out, the Republican Representatives forming a double line of honor and cheering frantieal- ly as the Senators passed between. The Democrats then talked against time until a compromise was affected. When the Senators returned to the hall of the House of Representatives the excitement was intense. Representative Fuller, the Republican leader, arose and moved that Representative Weaver be admitted to his seat Twenty seconds were given at once from the Republican side of the House, and Fuller declared the motion carried The tumult was terrible. The Democrats shouted themselves hoarse and re- fused to recognize Fuller or his motion. Speaker Harris ordered the roll called for Senator, but the Republicans made such a deafening uproar that nothing whatever could be done. Passion ran high, and it was feared the members would come. to blows. Finally compromise was effected by which it agreed that none but in formal ballots shall be taken until Tuesday next, and the joint session adjourned. On motion of MT. Crofts, Weaver was sworn in amid wild cheers.
 The result is considered a signal victory for the Republicans.

A Great Victory A Terrible Case of ScrofuIa
 Cured by
 Hoods SarsapariIIa

"In the winter of 1879 was attacked with Scrofula in one of the most aggravating forms. At one time had no less than thirteen large abscesses over and around my neck and throat, continually exuding an offensive mass of bloody matter disgusting to behold, and almost intolerable to endure. It is impossible to fully describe my sufferings, as the case was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After three years of misery, having been treated by three physicians, I was worse than ever. Finally, on the recommendation of W. J. Huntley, druggist, of Lockport, was induced to try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after having taken twelve bottles, within the last entirely ceased, and the abscesses have all disappeared, except the unsightly scars, which are daily becoming smaller by degrees, and beautifully less.' I do not know what it may have done for others, but ] do know that in my case, Hood Q @Sarsaparilla has proved an effective specific indeed. As an evidence of my gratitude send these facts unsolicited, and am ready to verify the authenticity of this cure, by personal correspondence with any one who doubts it.'' CHARLES A. ROB- ERTs, East Wilson, N. Y.

RUSSIA IN NO HURRY.

England Still Kept Waiting For Her
 Rep1y-A Rumor That More Conces-
 siOns Are Demanded.
 LONDON, May 15.-Mr. Gladstone said in the House of Commons to-day that Russia's s reply to England's frontier proposal was still awaited. Part of the papers touching recent negotiations would be published tomorrow, but as the negotiations were still incomplete the papers would terminate with the Penideh incident.
 The Globe this afternoon publishes the startling announcement that England has demanded from Russia a definite pledge that she will respect the new Afghan frontier and that in any circumstances she shall renew her assurances concerning the integrity of Afghanistan outside of the at present con ceded Russian sphere The Globe also as serts that Russia has refused to accede to England's request and that she goes to the length of demanding further concessions.
 ST. PETERSBURG, May 15.-General Roma rolf sends word that the Sariks are bitterly opposed to the new frontier line now under discussion, because it gives the best of the disputed lands to the Afghans Immediate ly on receipt of this dispatch a council was held and it was decided to support the Sariks The musslman inhabitants of Kashgar, a city in the Chinese Turkestan, have revolted and asked Russian protection. Desperate fighting is now going on.
 SUAKIM, May 15.-General Lord Wolseley reviewed the colored contingent to day. He praised them beyond measure and predicted that the indication furnished by them of England's widespread power would cause foreign nations to think twice before pro- .voking hostilities with Great Britain.

DARING OUTRAGE IN TEXAS.

A Mob Swoops Down On a Work
 Ing Gang of Convfcts and Sets
 Them Free.
 AUSTIN, Tex, May 15.-This forenoon Governor Ireland received telegram from Major Cove, superintendent of the Texas penitentiary, giving information of the most daring and successful outrage ever committed in Texas. Forty State convicts were en- ployed on Clay's farm in Brazos county. Last evening when work was stopped great mob of armed men surrounded the guards and prisoners and demanded the re- lease of the latter. The guards refused, whereupon fight ensued in which the convicts joined with the mob. The conflict resulted in victory for the attacking party who disappeared with the convicts. There is no definite information as to whether there were any killed or wounded. The outrage is due to the hue and cry against the employment of convict labor outside the penitentiaries. The Gov ernor has offered reward for the conviction of any of the leaders in the outrage

Donovan.s Score Left Way In The
 Shade.

Shade.
 NEW YORK, May 15.-Though there are eight names on the blackboard at Madison Square Garden there are but six skaters re- ally in the race which closes Saturday night. O'Melia and Walton are SO far behind that there really is no necessity for their staying on the track excepting that both being rapid and graceful skaters are held as attractive features of the contest, which will bring little or nothing to victor or vanquished. The apathy shown by the public does not af- feet the skaters and they go on in their tire some rounds. The most important thing chronicled during the past twenty four hours was Snowden's one thousandth mile, which was passed shortly before 2 o'clock. He was then over ten hours ahead of Donovan's record. Boyst turned his thousandth mile at 8 o'clock and he too was many hours in advance of the dead cham pion's record. The midnight score was: Snowden 1 ,043, W. Boyst 1,033, Maddocks 1000, Schock 942, Francis sos, Hartman 709, O'Melia 520, Walton 486.
 At 1 a. m. the score was: Snowden ,046, w Boyst 1,037, Maddocks 1000, Schock 943, Francis S09, Hartman 710, O'Melia 521, Walton 4S6.
