IRISH NATIONAL LEAGUE.
A SERIOUS BREAK BET wEEN THE
NEW YORK
Council and President Egan-The
Cause of the TrOuble-Much
Indignation.

NEw YORK, August 3,-A regular
meeting of the Municipal COUNCIL OF
the Iri, h National League was held to-
night at the district courthouse,
Fourth avenue aud Eighteenth street,
President Egan's letter of July 9th
was read. This letter stated that the
arrangements for receiving the Irish
delegates would be solely under the
charge of the Chicago committee,
of which ex President Alexander
Sullivan and other citizens
are member. Toe letter continues:
eve particularly warn you against
the unauthorized and unwarrautable
interference in the affairs of the league
by few meddlesome and malicious
outsiders in Chicago who, under the
guise OF bogus committee, are trying
to create the appearance OF OLSEN.
sions in the national ranks"
This was received with hiss;s.
EADelegate Doody then introduced a
resolution to the effect that all socie-
ties that had furnished financial aid to
the Irish cause should be recognized
at the National convention in ChiCa. o,
making the C1nvenionsone OF Irish
societies ard not one of National
League delegates.
Gleason seconded the resolution,
In doing so he referred to the uu-
plessantness between the Leagues
president and the Council. He said
even if we cid stir out OF the line
could not Mr.. Egan have cautiously
reminded us OF that? We don't
want any important quauels here,
and we understand Mr.. Egan's
action. We want attention to
league business, not to clique
methods. Let all who have worked
for the cause be recognized at the
convention. l believe in the senh-
ment of the resolutions. There is no
doubt in my mind, however, that the
resolutions will be thrust back into
your faces by the national officers.
Mr.. Doody said that mis- reason for
Offering the resolution was that

A SANE WOMAN

CHICAGO, ILL, August 3.-Judge
Gary today received letter from DR..
Thos. A. Clarke, declaring that Mrs.
Mary O'Brion, OF 81 Thirteenth Place,
who was declared insane by juIv in
DuPage county, last Thur y, of
perfectly sound mind, and that in the
opinion Of the writer the woma g
husband is trying to get rid of her fof
some purpose. DR.. Clarke has
known Mrs. O'Brien for fifteen
years. She il the wife OF John
O'Brieu, laborer. When seen to-
night, she spoke in a most rational
manner, and gave no evidence OF in
sanity. 1t is claimed by DR., Clarke
and by her nephew, Patrjc& Dalton,
that Mrs. O'Brien is one OF the Dalton
heirs for whom the MelbOurn and
Sidney banks several Years ego adj
vertised large fortune, and Mrs
O'Brien was committed on :evidence

PETERS OR HAYNES.

The contest for Attorney General is
between Peters and Haynes. The
idea OF drawing the negro vote IRON
Haynes, who has been VIGOROUSLY
popular with the negroes for fifteen
years, is an absurdity. Haynes will
have the support Of the party he has
led for many years, and which has
heretofore shown its admiration for
him. Peters Is the nominee OF the
Democratic party. He is backed by
the great Democratic party which has
triumphed in seven Of the eight
county elections held during the last
sixteen years. Every vote taken from
Peters is a vote for Haynes. II there
be Democrat in Shelby county who
contemplates throwing vote away on
a third candidate, he 81 ould pause
and ask himself what he will gain by
electipg Haynes. The contest is OBJ
viously between Peters and Haynes,
snnd as the latter will receive the ne
gro vote, the former should receive
solid Democratic vote.

Apropos OF the now daily crowded
attendance OF the trial OF anarchists, it is
stated this evening that some days ago
a well known socialist, now under
arrest, boldly declared to an official at
the Criminal Court building, that If
the Jury should bring in a verdict OF
guilty., the said Criminal Court build
ing would be then and there blown up
and that even a well guarded building
such as the Criminal Court building
now is, both on the inside and outside,
may be blown up by dynamite, not

exercised to prevent the admission or
even lettering around Of possible dyna-
miters, has been proven in the case OF
numerous we'll guarded buildings in
London in the course of the past few
yesrs, and more especially in the case
Of portion OF the govern
ment buildings, which for
years past have been constantly and
thoroughly guarded and doubly
guarded from the commencement OF
the dynamite riots In the case OF the
Criminal Court bui ding, the precau-
tons against anything OF this kind oc-
curing are being daily multiplied in
creasing care is being exercised to So
cure the jury in the case
from being approached and to
prevent even note being surrepti-

toned at intervals across the street

than five feet from him, and com

Turning around he took good aim and
fired, killing it. At the report of the
gun an awful rafting began. The

thing was left. and that was to jump,
and quickly, too. for the snakes were

tightly, he jumped. The fall stunned
him for an instant. He attempted to

On examination he found his left leg
was broken. After day AMI night of
the most horrible suffering he reached
