ty consisting of the President and Mrs. Cleve-
land, Secretary Bayard, Secretary and Miss En-
aicott, Postmaster general and Mrs. Villas, and
Colonel Lamont will leave Washington for Rich

lxpect to reach Washington before midnight.
They will occupy a special train, and will go
straight through with as few stops as possible
The President has informed Governor Lee
that the ladies will not accompany the party.
This action of the President creates surprise, in
view of the fact that only this morning it was
announced that Mrs. Cleveland and other ladies
would certainly be in the presidential party.
Governor Lee had arranged for reception at
his house, and had issued invitations to promi-
nent citizens to meet them.

Murderers BE Sent to Fort Pickens.

WASHINGTON, Oct 20-The following COM
munication, touching the disposition Of Geron-
imo and his fellow captives, was this afternoon
addressed to acknowledgement Sheridan, by
the Secretary of War:

Molzos. Klthdigai, Sephonne and Lonah, be
sent, under proper guard, to Fort Pickens, Fla,
there to be kept in close custody until further
orders. These Indians have been guilty of the
worst crimes known to the law, committed under
circumstances OF great atrocity; and the public
safety requires that they should be removed far
from the scenes of their depredations and guard
ed with the strictest vigilance. The remainder
Of the band captured at the Same time, consist.
Ing of eleven women, six children and two en-
listed scouts, you are to send TO Fort Marion,

Pangements are made for the prompt and eff
cient execution of this order"
1t is stated that the above order meets with
the approval Of the Secretary of the Interior.

THE LONDON SOCIALISTS.

Preparations for Huge Demonstration
Imminent Danger of BlOodshed.
LONDON, Oct. 20.-Although the police Off
cials profess confidence in their ability to pre-
serve order, they are really disturbed by the
threatened procession of Social Democrats on
Lord Mayors Day, and betray vastly more
anxiety than is warranted by their words
Messrs. Hyndman and Champion, who origi-
mated the idea of calling out the Socialists to fol-
10 in the wake of the lord Mayors procession
did so with the object of repeating the superb
advertisement which last Februarys riots af
forded the Socialist cause. and are therefore not
likely to abandon the project, particularly if it
is true, as they have boasted that 100 900 men
will respond to the call.
Should anywhere near this number of men
obey the summons, the best police arrangements
in the world would not suffice to prevent blood
she'd and this the authorities we'll know Di-
vided authority in handling the constabulary is
another source Of danger The municipal police
officials are intensely jealous and ridiculousy
suspicious of the power of Gen. Sir Charles War
rem, which is supreme only outside of the small
area Of the so-called city proper, and are pre-
tending that the metropolitan commissioner of
police is endeavoring to obtain control Of the
municipal force by representing in certain quar-
ters that 1t is powerless even TO protect itself
against an organized mob, without the assist
ance of the constabulary of the metropolis.
Although nobody believes that Sir Charles
Warren has for a moment entertained such in
tenton, there is broad and stable foundation for
the charge of incapacity against the municipal
force. The route of the procession is chiefly
within the limits of the city. and experts have
not hesitated to declare that while the city police
is splendid body of men, it is lamentably mad
equate to cope with serious riot, which is likely
to be precipitated at any moment in event of the
Socialists turning out as they threaten to do
Sir Charles Warren is trying to arrange with the
municipal force for joint and concerted action on
Lord Mayors Day, and in this he has the ap-
proval Of the Home Secretary, Mr.. Henry Mat
thews Should such an arrangement prove to
be impossible, its failure can only be the result
of the jealousy and shortsightedness of the city
authorities.

A BISHOPS DENUNcIAT11oN.
A Strong Condemnation of the Outrages
Perpetrated by Irish Moonlighters.

A Strong Condemnation of the Outrages
Perpetrated by Irish Moonlighters.
LONDON, Oct 90 Rev. Thomas Nulty,
Roman Catholic Bishop of Meath. preached a
powerful sermon in Dublin, on Sunday, against
moonlighters. He denounced in the strongest
terms the acts perpetrated by the moonlighters,
and called them the greatest enemies Ireland
had to-day, and said the outrages they committed
served but to perpetuate landlordism, which
otherwise, he declared, was doomed He asked
the moonlighters to restore the arms and other
property they had stolen, to the rightful owners.
''You can do this quietly" he said; "You can
make this restitution through me, ifyou wish, or
you can make it through your parish priests who
will not betray your secrets" Continuing, Bishop
Nulty said: IF the moonlighters fail to desist
fromthelr outrages, / am determined to organ
iZe a committee to watch them and bring them
to justice. know many Of these men myself.
It Is impossible for them to escape.
Our country is trial. Her prosperity and
happiness for centuries depend on the good be-
havior OF her people the coming winter. AS
soon as Ireland shall have proved herself able to
govern herself we shall have the whole English
democracy on our side Then home rule will be
certain"
The Times, commenting on Bishop Nulty's
sermon, says: 1.-THE Bishops utterance was out
spoken and vigorous, but it comes too late. 1t
puts the whole matter on true basis, setting
morality and the repression of crime before all
political changes whatever"

Hazen In III Favor.

Washington Special.
General Hazen, Chief of the Signal Service, is
the subject of great deal of fault finding by the
Secretary of War and the General of the Army,
1t Is claimed at the department that there was
no occasion for the recent trip of the General to
the Pacific coast beyond desire to enjoy a three
months vacation at government expense. He is
still absent from the city. with no certainty on
the part OF the officers here when he will return.
Meanwhile the disbursing officer of the service
is acting as chief signal officer and auditing his
own accounts. General Hazen's annual report
ought to be nearly completed at this time. but
from present appearances it will not be started
before the LIST Of November.

They Blame Elaine.

Richmond, Va, Special.
Talking about the work of the general conven-
ton of the Knights of Labor now in session, one
of the most prominent leaders of the South said
to-day that of all the subjects considered by this
body, so far as the South was concerned, the
most important was the proposition to agitate
the question of wages of colored laborers MOT
said he ''that any one can object to any move
ment that may be made TO increase the wages Of
the laboring man in our section bnt the agita-
ton of this question will cause An unrest among
the colored people, The discussion Of the wage
or any other subject connected with them is suf-
icient to disturb the colored people. or rather,
the shifting sort of that race The proposed labor
STATISTICAL bureau contemplates research, not
only into the question of wages but the cost of
living. and whether the colored people have been
denied any of their political other legal rights.
Ihls whole Held OF inquiry many think, smacks
very much of Blaine. The speech made by that
defeated asprant for presidential honors in An
gusta, Me-, shortly after the result of the con-
test of 1883 it was ascertaned, mapped out some
OF the inquiries authorized by this labor statistic
bureau, Whether intended or not, these in
quires can be directed in such channels as will
do the most partisan good in future national
campaigns The leading members of the con-
ventiou, however, feel confident that the pro-
posed bureau will never allow itself or its labor
ers to be turned to partisan account"
Southern political leaders of both parties are
watching with eager interest the spreading of
the Knights OF Labor in the South. 1t cannot,
it is believed, ever gain a great many recruits
from the whites, except in the larger towns. like
Richmond, New Orleans, -etanta and some few
others Among the colored peoplo the organiza-
ton promises to spread like wildire. The great
trouble, the conservative labor leaders here say,
will be to keep the organization from increasing
too rapidly in the South. Much care is to be
takeD not only in accepting colered, but all
other applicants for membership, Many trodble-
some and undesirable recruits have already been
accepted. of whom the order would be glad to
rid itself

CHICAGO, Oct 20.-Everything is quiet at the
stockyards this morning Afew packing houses
have opened and are running in small way, but
there has been no general resumption of work.
The yards are filled with workmen, but there
has been no recurrence of the disturbances of
yesterday. A few more men were taken to work
in the various packing houses, and the rain kept
the unemployed crowds that all day yesterday
hung around inside. There was no excitement
during tho early hours of the morning The
beef butchers will accept the inevitable, and
will, it is thought, return to work on the ten
hour basis. Hogs are beginning to arrive, and
are in active demand. Armour will commence
to kill Immediately, and by the last of the week
will need full force of men. Fowler Brothers
and the Anelo-American Company's houses will
be day or two later, but it is safe to say that
by the first of next week the great majority OF
the men will once more be at work.

LONDON, Oct 20.-Gen. Lord Wolseley, adju
tantgeneral, has issued circular to the officers
OF the English army, ntimating that the Duke
of Cambridge, commander-n chief is dissatisfied
over the small progress made in their military
training. During the recent inspections the
circular states, the Duke observed that many
officers of all ranks evinced much want of
knowledge of the duties vitaly important to mil
tary efficiency, and he strongly insists that the
officers shall devote more time and attention to
the instruction of their troops.
The St James Gazette says that the Duke of
Cambridge. in the freedom Of private conversa-
ton, expresses the opinion that many of the
officers in the British army, are 'not worth their
salt" and he finds that he has been obliged TO
address them in circular which would scandal
ize the whole army and alarm the country.

the principal witnesses in the Haddcck murder

taken before Governor Larrabee on his arrival.
Up to this time he had made no disclosures, and
prior to doing so he exacted promise from the
Governor guaranteeing personal safety from vio-
lence in the event Of his transfer to Sioux City.
Following this guarantee, Bismarck" in the

shall Stanley and Chief Melon, made full and
complete confession of his connection with the
murder, to which he was an eyewitness. The
confession was taken down in short hand. and
has since been written out 1t covers ten sheets
of closely written foolscap paper, and is now in

reason assigned for non ublcaton of the con-

more men concerned in the Haddock murder at
Sioux City were made public. These are Albert

Change in Civil-service Methods:

WASHINGTON, Oct 2O-Civilservice Commits
sioners Oberly and Lyman have decided that
hereafter the examinations of applicants wheth-
er for appointment or promotion, shall be car
ried on under the supervision of the Civilservice
Commissioners at Washington, and not be left
to the discretion of the local board of examiners.
1t is generally fact that the members of the
local board and appointing officers, without a
special inquiry, know the politics of the appli-
cants, and for that reason 1t has been deemed
expedient that the examining papers should be
referred to Washington, where the grading will
be DONE
