Unimportant Meeting OF the Live

CHICAGO. Oct. Especial Telegram to the
BEE. What was expected to be an import
ant meeting of the Illinois live stock COM
mission resulted like most of the previous
meetings, in doing little that was new. Com
missoners McChcsney and Preason, with
the secretary of the board, FIRST held short
consultation, to which Governor Oglesby
was admitted, and fton which reporters were
excluded. 1t was decided at the preliminary
meeting that if the government experts were
to accomplish much in ferretng out the
pleuro-pneumonia cattle, that they would
have to be commissioned by the state. The
government officers, Drs. Herr and Rose of
New York, Trumbower of Washington, and
Rowland and Hawke OF New Jersey, were
then called before the commissioners, who
still kept the doors sealed to the press and
the public. The state board then issued com
missions to the government experts, making
them assistant Observation-Disclosures, with full
power to enter suspected premises and kill
cattle Two of these newly deput2ed assist
ants will go to Blackberry. Ills, this after
noon to examine a herd 0f cattle there sup

New YORK, Oct. 4.-fSpecial TELEGRAM to
the BEE. l. Marcus A. Wolf, of St. Louis,
who was delegated by the Knights of st.

rule in Ireland, and who was unape TO Sc
cure an audience from the Irish leader, as
told in the cable dispatches, arrived Sunday
on the Etruria. Wolf is very much incenjed
about his treatment by Mr., Parnefi, and says
Americans, as rule, find him inaccessible
and lind him indifferent to any expressions
of sympathy on their part. Speaking of his
failure to see Parnell, he says: IF had
been an ambassador from the society in his
own land he might have had some
justification Tor not receiving me, but being
a delegate of an American organization
by whom he had been dined and wined and
elected to an honorary membership, as well
as my being the bearer OF purse to help on
his cause L certainly regard Mr.. Parnelfs
treatment of me as very. very shabby. Com
mon courtesy, 1t strikes me, In the case OF
such Importance, required some recognition,
however small. Thatm letters reached him
] have no reason to doubt and that he should
have neglected to answer them | can't ex-
plain, especially as they were marked either
personal, personal or immediate" or ITO
be opened by Mr. Parnell in person." IL was
not only discOurtcous but il was II piece Of
very poor business not TO send a receipt.
As it is, wat have I to show
to st. Louis knights that the money
they subscribed and of which | was the res
, ponsible bearer, was delivered and received?
The cause of Ireland cannot be advanced
under such leadership AS that of the unap-
proachable larncil. Why, would you believe
ii, no one knows even where Palncll lives,
nor at what place he eats. He is the most in

Drowning Accident.

Saturday evening, as the island steamers
were making the 7.30 trip, Capt. Parsons, of
the Emita noticed small sail boat, between
House Island and the flagship Tennessee,
suddenly capsize. The Emita had full
head of steam on, but Capt. Parsons instant
ly reversed and put back, at the same time
clearing away small boat on deck. The
occupants Of the capsized boat consisted Of
a man and woman, the latter's name being
Belle Busby; the woman did not know the
mans name, but said he was called John.
Immediately upon capsizing the man was
seen to throw up his hands and go under,
never to appear alive, while the woman APP
parently swan away from the boat quite a
distance when she was picked up by boat
from schooner lying near by, and taken on
board the Emita, where everything was done
for her by the officers and passengers, until
she was placed under the kind care of Mrs.
Jones at the Union House, where she re-
manned Saturday night. Capt. Parsons and
crew of the Emita deserve commentator for
the rapidity with which they sent boat to
the rescue, cutting lashings and coverings,
and sending the boat overheard in marvel
ously quick time. Capt. Oliver of the
steamer Forest City, also launched boat
but seeing that the Emita was doing all that
was necessary, called it back. 1t was good
proof of the efficiency of officers and crews
of the two steamers.

Forepaugh's Menagerfe.

Forepaugh's menagerie, which is to exhibit
here next week, has three baby tigers, which
are the only ones ever born in this county.
Last April, while the menagerie was at Phil
adelphia, the keepers coming into the room
were astonished to find perfect pandemo-
MUM raging The tigers and lions were
roaring terribly. With some fear and great
caution the men approached the cages, and
there saw two little cubs close beside the
mother. But the tumult was caused by the
early wandering off of a third kittenish tiger,
which had slipped between the bars, and had
taken an early stroll in life. The keepers
dared not push the little animal back through
the bars, for fear of injury to themselves, so
they quickly opened yentilator at the top
and dropped the prodigal son down into its
mothers lap. Forepaugh considers the min
iature tigers worth $4,000 to him.
