A Political Conflict at Laredo,

GALVESTON, April IA Neys' Laredo

cloth and ashes. The intense excitement
and lawlessness that has prevailed here
for the past fortnight eliminated this
evening in bloody riot. The immedi'

nouncing that the Democrats would hold
funeral services over the party known
here as the sHuarches." Directly after
the appearance Of the circuler it was an

armed with Winchesters and revolvers

one hundred armed men became engaged
in deadly conflict and for half an hour a

Preparations for n Fight ON
Home Rule.


LONDON, April THE various whips
have arranged with the members Of their
parties for postponement until Friday
Of all questions which were to have been
brought up in the House Of Commons to-
morrow except those Of the most press
sing Importance. In thus curtailiHg the
business Of the House. Mr.. Gladstone
will be enabled to begin his speech in
explanation Of his Irish Home Rule
scheme at about half-past A in the after
noon. The usual body of policemen
stationed about the Parliament buildings
will be strongly reinforced to suppress
any demonstration that may be attempt
ed outside Of the buildings. The Irish
men living in London have been request
ed TO assemble tomorrow to cheer Mr..
Gladstone as he enters Parliament. A
similar Liberal manifestation Is expected.
Urgent whips have been issued request
ing the presence of all members OF the
Commons tomorrow.
The House will be opened at 9 A. M.
to enable members to secure seats. The
opening of the House at so early an hour
is commented upon adversely on the
ground that il places premium on phys
ical endurance and handicaps invalid
members. The Parnellites at meeting
to-day decided to enter the House at
the earliest possible hour to secure seats.
The Scotch members OF the House Of
Commons, held meeting this afternoon
to receive deputation of Presbyterians
from Ulster, who came to enter their
protest against granting Home Rule to
Ireland. Sir Donald Currie, Liberal
member from West Perthside, presided
over the meeting. The Moderator Of
the General Assembly OF the Presbyte.
rian Church OF Ulster, who led the dep
utation, explained the reasons for the
visit. He said that the Presbyteriaps Of
Ulster were in deep anxiety lest Parlia-
ment should shape legislation which
would place the Protestant Ministry Of
ireland at great disadvantage by hand
ing over the control Of the affairs OF the
country to a party distinctly anti-Prot-
estant. The deputatioa spoke in the
kindliest terms Of their Catholic breth-
rem in Ireland, but said that they feared

Hnder the new order of things which it
was understood the leaders OF the gov
eminent intended to inaugurate.
ALI of the Parnellite members OF Par
lament have already arrived in London,
IN order to secure seats in the House.
To-day ii is reported that Mr.. Gladstone
has informed Lord Harrington and Mr..
Parnell OF the leading features of his
Irish scheme. Mr.. Parnell. it is said,
approves the plan. His approval, how
ever, IS subject to modification of the
details. Lord Harrington is averse to a
division on the first reading Of the bill.
The Standard admits that the Con-
servatives are powerless without the as
sistance Of Lord Harrington, and that
an attempt at Conservative action would
result in victory for Mr.. Gladstone.
The Queen invited Mr.. Gladstone last
Wednesday and again on Saturday to
dine at Windsor, but the Premier was
too busy and was compelled to decline
both invitations.

The HERALD was the first journal 70
advocate the construction of branch
railroad from Pasadena to Cana da,
Crescenta Canada and Monte Vista.
Some persons who had no idea OF the
supreme value Of the warm brushland
on the high mesas next to the mountains
laughed at the idea, but when it ia
known and shown that these rare lands
possess such attributes and properties as
to attract dense population OF persons
OF wealth so that traffic becomes large
and constant, the reasons for q railroad
are evident and availing.
The proposed new railway will leave
the Pasadena road near the present depot
and extend north to Monks Hill, through
Ball q Painters tract, past Woodbury.
Bros, Banbury's, Giddings, crossing the
Arroyo Seco at DEVILS Gate, thence
through Canada and Crescenta II miles.
Probably the line would be prolonged
to Monte Vista and San Fernando. The
track will be standard gauge and ops-
rated by dummy.
Mr.. A. ]. Sanborn, wealthy gentle
man of San Francisco. proposes to take
half the stock. Thus far S23, 500 have
been taken in La Canada and Crescenta,
while Mr.. Painter and other wealthy
gentlemen in North Pasadena are put
ting their shoulders to the wheel in a
vigorous manner.
BY the conditions of the subscription,
work is to be begun by the LIST of July
next. The people along the line are en-
Enthusiastically in favor Of the road, and
are determined to carry it through.

ever necessity existed at the time Of its
PRONUNCIATION has ceased to be sufficient
TO longer continue an order sus-

urge the exercise Of the strictest vigil

when the vigilance OF all Of these

of fraud or wrong, honest claims should
not be delayed or their consideration

therefore revoked, and you will proceed
