BURNED AT SEA.
Schooner rarOlinti Destroyed by Fire on
the Voyage from Philadelphia for
Bangor.

BosToN, July 27.
The steamer Norman which arrived Sun
d ay night from Philadelphia, reported having
passed at 2. A. M. the day previous schoon-
er on fire. 1t was learned today that the
burning vessel was the Boston schooner
Tarolinti, Philadelphia to Bangor, ip ballast
Capt. Nelson Bartlett, the captain of the
schooner, now in this city, states that the
Tarolinti left Boston for Bangor about three
weeks ago, where she loaded laths for Phila-
delphia. The outward voyage was devoid of
interest. On the return voyage Friday night,
about ll.30, off Barnegat, while
lying in his berth, he was
suddenly summoned on deck by cry of fire.
Reaching the deck he saw the flames shoot
ing up through the glass of the forward skv-
light and before anything could be done it
was running up the mast and out on the bow
spirit, all the forward sails being on fire. The
heat was intense ard in spite of the work of
six men the flames gained rapidly and it was
decided to abandon the vessel. The crew
took to boats and in about an hour were
picked up by the schooner Sarah Cutten of
Philadelphia, from Norfolk for Warren. r.
l., and landed at the latter port, The Taro-
Init was well known in New York and Bos-
ton waters and was owned by Il. J. Bartlett
of east Boston. The vessel was partly in
sured The Tsrolnti, formerly enrolled in
both the New York and Eastern yacht clubs
was bought by J. Montgomery Sears of this
city, WAS afterward sold to Capt John Cum
mings and by him sold to Bartlett.

ARGUMENT HEARD
For Preliminary Injunction Made BY
National Banks to Restrain Election
of Taxes Upon Bank Shares.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, July 81.
An argument vas heard here today by
Judge Wallace, of the L. S. Circuit Court Oh
a motion for preliminary injunction made
by thirty-fve national banks of the city of
New York 10 restrain the collie of taxes
upon bank shares for the year 1885, pending
the issue of suits for permanent iDjunctions.
The suits involve the constitutionality of the
entire system of State taxation of the shares
Of national banks, and are considered the
most important ever presented to the court
upon the subject. The main point urged by
the banks is that the State law violates the
provision of section 52l9 of the Revised
Statutes of the United States, which forbids
the taxation of shares of national banks BY
several states at a greater rate than other
forms of monied capital in the hands of ind-
vidual citizens thereof If the point is sus-
tanned it will affect the taxation of the shares
of national banks in nearly e, cry State of the
union, ard in many states the taxation OF
state bank shares as we'll. Decision is re-
served.

A vILLANOUS ATTEMPT
To Murder Prince Leopold and His Suite
BY Placing a Bomb on Board Steamer
The Bomb Noticed in Time TO Save
Loss of Life.
New YORK, July 2T,

New YORK, July 27.
Officers of the Sea Beach route from New
York city to Coney Island, which is by boat
from the Battery to Bay Ridge, and thence
by rail to the island, arranged to entertain
Prince Leopold of Brazil, and his suite at
Coney Island last evening. The guests, some
twenty in all, included, besides the young
prince, Commodore Ds CANA and other off,
GERS of the Brazilian frigate Bsrros, to which
the prince is attached, DR.. De Mendowcs, the
Brazilian consul. his son and three daughters
Mayor Grace, District Attorney MARITIME and
Assistant Fellows were invited TO be of the
party, but were unable to go. The party left
the Battery early in the evening, were shown
everything of interest at Coney Island and
were entertained at dinner.
President Mann of the Sea Beach route had
received during the dav villanous letter
signed "Social Rev. Conn.," warning them
that in case the Brazilian prince was feted by
the company, all the lives of the principals
should 'be forfeited" and taken at the ear
liest opportunity. "Be warned and counter
mand the fete. Your lives are now in ouf
hands and the responsibility shall be with
you" was the way the letter ended. 1t was
written in German hand. Although Mr.. Mann
apparently treated this missive lightly, he
had nevertheless taken extraordinary precau-
tions in the way of detective surveillance
over the party.
Nothing suspicious occurred until the party
were on the steamer Sylvan Stream, on the
return from Bay Ridge to the Battery, and
the boat was well on her way. This was a
regular trip, and there were many passengers
in addition to the prince and his party on
board. Suddenly Kissing noise proceeded
from under cabin seat, and those nearest

A GREAT FIRE.
Many Acres of Valuable Land Burned
Over.

PALNYRA, Wis, July 81.
On Friday last spark from a ST. Paul
company's engine set fire to some hay on
what Is known as Big Marsh. Several thou
sand acres near here are burning. The i'm
mense crop of hay owned by Mr.. P. Altnier,
is also burning into the ground foot and
half deep. The fire is running over forty
acres of valuable land belonging to him, so that
IT will be of no use for twenty years to come.
The fire spread rapidly On account of the
drouth and light fuel until it passed control.
Hundreds of acres and tons of good hay are
being entirely destroyed. Nothing but a
heavy rain at once will save the whole marsh
from being swept by fire. The loss is heavy
as the hay crop was the only good crop this
year and this big marsh was almost the only
source of supply for miles around.

A More Hopeful Outlook Despite the
Drought.
CEDAR RAPIDS. Ia. July

CEDAR RAPIDS, Ia, July 27.
Reports from so stations along the lines of
the Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Northern
road show that most of the small grain has
been harvested with better results than had
been anticipated. Wheat is better in quality
than it has been before for ten years, and the
yielc is equal to last years crop. Hay in
many places is destroyed, but in others is of
superior quality, but only about 80 per cent
of last years yield. Oats yield well and none
is poorer than the best grade No. 2. Barley
and rye are also good. There had been no
rain fall in many places for eleven weeks
until last night, when q light rain fell west
and north, doing corn much good. Corn has
stood the drought remarkably well, but this
week will spoil the prospects of good crop
unless we have heavy rain.

BRITISH POLITICS.
A Large Meeting of Lord
Harrington Refuses to form the New
Government.
LONDON, July 26.

LONDON, July &c.
A large meeting of the conservative men,
bers of Parliament, called by Marquis Sails
bury, was held at the Carlton Club House this
evening. Salisbury was heartily cheered by
the immense throng in the vicinity as he
entered the Club House. In an address on
the political situation Salisbury said, among
other things, that it was necessary for the
conservatives to act in the new Parliament in
accord with the liberal unionists in dealing
with Irish affairs. He announced that Rt.
Hon. w. ii. Smith had been agreed upon as
chief secretary for Ireland, and that he had,
himself, accepted the office of prime minister.
The marquis stated that he had, on behalf
of the conservative party, offered the pre-
miership to Lord Harrington, and the Queen
had approved the offer. Lord Harrington,
saw fit, however, to decline the task of form
ing the government, but promised for him
self and his colleagues that they would 10y
ally support the government formed by
the conservatives on every question
concerning the maintenance and integrity of
the empire as far as the Irish policy of tie
government was concerned.
In conclusion Lord Salisbury said in refer
ence to Irish affairs, that he would do all in
his power to obtain the cooperation of Lord
Harrington. The liberal unionists, he said,
could be depended upon to support the con-
sergatives. The ministry would forthwith
prepare bill to grapple with the Irish diff
Guilty in the direction of an extended local
self government. In the meantime, for the
protection of the loyal people of Ireland, the
government would enforce the existing laws
and apply additional powers if necessary.
Parliament would be at once summoned,
Lord Salisbury announced, and would sit
continuously during August for the purpose
of passing estimates. The action taken by
the Premier and his colleagues, respecting
the line of the proposed mutual action be-
tween the conservatives and liberal unionists
was heartily approved by the meeting.

ARRESTED IN CHICAGO.
A Noted New England Burglar Caught
A Long List of Crimes Charged up
Against Him.
CUICACo .July o7

CHICAGO, July 27.
A man who is charged with the most sue
cessful series of burglaries ever perpetrated
in New England was arrested in Chicago
last night by Pinkerton's detectives. His
name is Chas. Ingle, alias Grover Ingle,
alias Chas. Warren, and he has the reputa-
ton of being one of the most expert thieves
in the country. His detection and arrest in
the present instance came about through the
efforts of Mayor Powell of Newport, X. L.,
and Pinkerton's detectives Ingle belongs
in Chicago and his alleged operations in New
England began rather more than two wears
ago. One of his most successful jobs in the
vicinity of Boston was the robbery of ex-Gov.
Clafiin's house at Newport, where almost two
thousand dollars of jewelry was secured. In
Newport summer residents suffered very se-
verely. The cottage of Robert Lennox Ken
nedv of New York was entered one evening
and $1,000 worth of jewelry belonging to his
daughter was carried off. Pinkerton's Off
GERS ascertained that the jewels had been
shipped to a well known firm in Chicago and
after considerable hard work recovered the
entire property. There were three more big
robberies at Newport that season. John G.
Hecxsher of New York lost $4,000 from his
cottage and others suffered severely. In
September of last year the cottage of Admiral
Baldwin was entered and Jewelry valued at
$4,000 was carried away. These valuables
we're subsequently discovered buried in the
vicinity. On July lst Admiral Baldwin was
again the victim of a burglarous raid, and
this time he lost S35 worth of silver. There
upon Mayor Powell at his own expense en-
ployed Pinkerton's men to keep the city clear
and to solve the mystery of the previous
crimes. Pictures of noted craftsmen were
shown to the people who had been the sup
posed robber. From about twenty others
they all picked that of Ingle as the thief. He
has been arrested for the New England rob-
berries.
