Harrington said, ssthat majority of the
leaders of the movement openly declared
that all means. including violence, blood
shed and destruction of property, were
justifiable and admissible to attain their
ends"
To these assertions Mr.. Parnen has re-
piled by letter as follows:
"The statements of Lord Harrington
that the Irish party and National League
are in union with American Eenians is
untrue. / know nothing whatever of any
Fenian organization in Ireland or
America beyond what I have learned
from the newspapers. have never had
any communications with the leaders OF
such organizations or accepted any alli-
ance with them. / do not even know who
the leaders are. No union of the National
League and Fenians has ever been pro-
posed IL auth a proposal had ever been
made should never haze consented. i

keep the National League within the

mer and Mrs. Hinchey would be roughly

THE STRIKING TELEeRAPHERs.
They are Acting without the Consent
of the Knights of Labor.


New YORK, July 14.--The only one OF
the Western Union officials who pretends
to know anything about the strike of the
operators in Omaha and other Western
places is Press Agent SummeryIlle and he
pretends to know very little.
1.-The trouble is all in Clowry's division.
He was superintendent of the division.
and was made Vice-President simply be-
cause he could run it cheaply. but there Is
always some trouble there, which the
company never sets right, but merely
stamps out.
ION the face of it, it does not seem to be
very important" he said. "Col. Clowry,
manager of the Central division, tele-
craps that fortyfour ont of the forty.
seven operators at Omaha repudiate the
demands made by the others. ] have not
seen the mems demand, but believe they
ask for extra allowance for extra work.
1t is the policy Of the COMPANY to keep
enough men at place to prevent the nec-
essity of any extra work, but sometimes,
generally because some of the operators
fail us, we have to put extra work on
them. That extra work is generally the
taking care of an extra circuit
Mr.. Summerville said he knew nothing
of the operators being obliged to work
from twelve to fifteen hours day. Oper-
ators of any value, he thought, got about
$95 month. He placed the number of
operators at % in Ogden, 81 in Omaha,
and at smaller numbers in Demond, N.
M, and Cheyenne.
Mr.. j. B, Taitavall, editor of the Elec.
trio Age, said that about SO men were out
at Omaha, Is at Demond. % at Ogden,
and about dozen at Cheyenne. They
received $95 month, which enabled them
barely to live in that land OF high prices.
and worked from three to four hours over
time day.
extra work was restored two years
ago. said Mr.. Taltavail, sand the men
may be stopped as they are leaving the
office and held for hours. In the East
this extra work is paid for. The strike
will not spread the operators in this city
are all satisfied. The strike has been
made without the consent of the Execu-
tive Board of the Knights of Labor, to
which order the telegraphers belong, and
the strikers may be expelled. They don't
care about that, though; nor should in
their place-wages are SO low that being
discharged won't hurt them, and being ex-
pelled from the order won't matter to
them"

NEWBURGH, July 1.-Two months ago
D buck belonging to Banker Plock of New
York, who has fine cattle farm at Guy
mard, in this county, broke its leg. DIR.
Sutclif set the leg, and the bone knitted
together all right, but the ligament of the
knee, which was injured, failed to heal,
and Mr.. Plock, who valued the buck
highly, decided to try amputation TO save
its life. A day or two ago DR.. Sutcliff
performed the operation. The deer was
chloroformed and the leg taken off two
inches above the knee. The animal will
probably be seen around soon on three
legs.
