Notwithstanding the general welcome in
England to the Prince and Princess of Wales
there has been an undercurrent of fierce hos
tility by the Natienalists and 1t broke out in
Cork Wednesday with terrible results. An
unssvory onion was thrown at the Prince ct
one point In the procession and at another
stones. The arrest of the offender led to his
attempted recapture by the mob. A mass
meeting was held by the Nation alists in the
evening, the London newspapers burned and
infiammatory speeches made. After the
meeting, the Nationalist scattered out In
parties of so TO 300, tore down decorations
and burned them, smashed In doors and
windows and broke into gun stores, securing
arms. Policemen were attacked singly or
In squads and beaten numerically with
their own trunchions. The police fought
hard, finally resorting to their revolvers and
bayonets and receiving and inficting terrible
injuries. Every house-top and window was
. fortress from which the police we're At

the artillery would have to be called cut to
clear the streets, but at .. m, Thursday,

tered Honduras, routing the enemy, WHO re-

Telegram from Zaldavar to the authorities

trouble without another shot. Probably
both armies will march on Guatemala City.'
Mr.. Peralta, Costa Rican minister, to-day

RANKS AGAIN BROKEN.
The Illinois Legislature Third Time Invaded
by Death.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, April 13.-Death has
again intsrfered with the plans of the Sena-
torial managers. Representative John q.
Shaw, of Besrdsto wn ,Cass county was found
dead In his room at his hotel. He had been
suffering from heart disease, but had been
able to take part in the Legislative proceed
ings. 1t is believed that Governor Oglesby
will tomorrow issue writ for a new cleo.
ton. Dispa; ches we're sent to Republican
members tonight, urging them to meet in
joint assembly Tuesday. The Morrison
men, however, say no vote will be taken.
Speaker Haines says there will not be full
meeting during the remainder of the session,
and the impression gains ground that the
Legislature will adjourn without deciding
the Senatorial question. Every one seems
at sea. 1t will be at least three weeks be-
fore the vacancy caused by the death of
Shaw can be filled, and the Democrats do
not want to force the fighting. Logan's
friends are satisfied with the complexion Of
affairs, feeling confident that his election is
only question of time. Shaw's district is
Democratic by large majority.

AFTER AMERICAN SHIPS.
Negotiations of Agents of the Russian Govern
ment at Philadelphia.

NEW YORK, April 10.-The Sun says:
The rumors regarding Russian negotiations
for steamships in the American market,
which noated around the Exchange for 3
day or two, materialized yesterday. The
agents for the Russian government are Bar
ker Bros. Il Co., bankers of Philadelphia,
the firm who, q number of years ago, pur
chased for that government the Columbus
aud the new Pacific Mail ship State of Cali
fornia, which was then not completed. This
firm also contracted for the building Of an
unarmorsd cruiser which was built by
Cramps and named The Mischief. The
American ships which the Russian Govern
ment are now seeking &c purchase are the
San Pablo anG San Pedro. These steamers
are owned by Huntington and his associates,
and can be purchased at a reasonable adj
vance over the cost price, although they have
been very profitable In the Pacific trade.
of the Russians succeed in buying half
dozen of these small American steamers"
said q prominent Broad street steamship man
yesterday, "they will make British COM
merce sick" The British then will have no
resources save in fitting cut fast Liverpool
liners, like the Oregon, America, Aurania
and City of Rome. These ships could capa
ture the American. built ships In fight, but
the difficulty would be in finding them after
they were once at sea. The British navy is
neither speedy nor able to remain long at
sea. The Pail Mall Gazette recent ly assert
cd that no one of the ironclsds have suff-
eient coal endurance to carry her TO New
York, and 1t was true; but the Russian ship
Mischief can steam 16a knots an hour, and
at moderate speed has a coal endurance Of
sixty days. The British can guard the
channel, but Britannia does not rule the
waves so much as people think. The most
comfortable people at the Maritime Ex-
change were the agents of the German lines.
These and the French line to Havre and
Bordeaux expect to carry the transatlantic
passenger traffic, as we'll as freight, or as
much of It As their ships will hold. The
prospect of establishing an American line to
Liverpool of fast ships on the Luddburg
model, will be pushed, and merchants said
yesterday the stock would all be taken in "a
hours after the declaration Of war.
