PAIKERspURG, W. VA, July 2.|Stand-
ing Stone, rural locality about seven or
eight miles from Elizabeth, Writ county,
is all torn up over sensation of unusual
character. Some time since daughter OF
Mr.. Edward Guthrie, farmer of that To-
cality, went 70 live with the family Of L.
X. Farce, neighbOr. Some time later
Farce and man named Gray, it Is SAID,
circulated reports derogatOry to the char
acter of the girl, and she and young fei-
low. whose name l cannot get, were indict-
ed. The girl was confined and had
child, but seemed to be in deadly fear OF
some one who is its father, and will not
disclose his name. Guthrie for some reason
suspected L. r. Farce as being the seducer
of his daughter, and so stated at times.
He was attacked BY j. w. Farce and 9th
ers on the highway and badly beaten.
This started the ball, and the indignant
neighbors and friends of Guthrie went to
work to ferret the matter out. In the pro
cess of investigation man named Ed.
Baekus was found, who, it is said, init
mated that Z. r. Farce was guilty, and the
affair of the other fellow was conspiracy
Backus was threatened, and becoming
badly frightened would not sleep i'll his
house, but at night would 20 to
A CLIFF
or cave in the rocks and remain all night.
On last Thursday Backus said he saw the
two Farrees and crowd of men pass the
house and act in suspicious manner.
That evening he left home more in deadly
fear than ever. When he got into his re-
treat he discovered that he had been fol-
lowed and was being surrounded by body
of men. He beat hasty retreat toward
his home, but was cut OIL, and returned IN
the direction of the hill, after firing, as he
said, two shots at his pursuers. This was
the last seen of BackuS until saturday,
when, after long search by his friends and
neiphbors, his body WAS found ut the foot
of a cliff, bruised, broken and bleeding.
He was unconscious when found and taken
home, and is still in an unconscious or
comatose condition, having revived Stili-
ciently to talk but u few minutes, when he
stated that he was attacked and thrown
over the cliff.
This time another Vigilance Committee
was formed of the neighbors and friends OF
/ - D,u1-rt- IL ~ SnII thpV de
clared their intention to hang or kill the
Farrees, and would have done SO but for
the arrival of Capt. Werk and old man
Guthrie, who had been SO deeply injured.
These gentlemep prevailed upon them to
| let the law take its course, and after con-
siderable difficulty dissuaded them from
putting their threats into execution. Should
BacLus, die, however, there is no telling
what may be done, rs the neighborh0od Is
much excited and very indignant, and
threats are openly made to punish the per.
petrutorS of the outrage.

BoYCoTTERS SENTENCED.
The Full Penalty not ImPOsed-Judge
Rnrrett'a Remarks.

NEW YORK, Juty 22-The convicted
boycotters of Thesis, the proprietor of
concert garden, were arraigned in court tc-
day for sentence. Judge Barrett made
some strong remarks to them on the law
lessness of the crime of which they wero
convicted. He said that this was viola
ton of peace to q country that welcomed
foreign born citizens, to country that Of
fered freedom and the privilege of right
They had violated public rights and Opin-
ions, and their offcnso was not short of
blackmail. The distribution of cir
culars before places of busi-
ness was conspiracy and punishable II
such. Their conduct if unpunished,
would lead to sayagery. They may have
been misled by bad advice, but their
counsel should have rebuked them. They
did not use the money for their own ad-
vantage, and this palliated their ofense.
We are told that it had been the custom to
rob in that manner. He would not impose
the full penalty of the law as they were
wOrkingmen.
The Judge then sentenced Paul Wiltzig
and Henry IIoldOrf To two years and ten
months at hard labor; Michael Stron, and
Julius Rosenberg to one year and SIX
months Imprisonment. Daniel Danen-
hauser, the most violent of any of the boy
cottrrs, gOt three years and eight months
in State prison.

MONTREAL, July 2.-In the Young
Mems Liberal Convention resolutions have
been adopted eondemning the Government
for employing the public funds for the pur-
pose of assisting emigrants from the old
country to settle in Canada; declaring that
all restrictions on the trade and commerce
of the Dominion are detrimental TO the best
interests OF the people, ana that it is an
absolute necessary step toward the more
equitable government of Canada that the
earliest possible moment the tax ON coal,
flour and other necesSaries OF Lie
and on raw materials for
manufacture should be abOl-
ished; 'that this meeting expresses its
sympathy with the gallant efforts now be-
ing made by Mr.. Gladstone, Mr.. Parnel
and their followers to grant to the people
of Ireland Parliament to manage their
local atfairs;" that Manitoba lands be
handed over 10 the provinces ON such con-
ditiOns rs are Just and equitable; that tins
convention Is convinced that no settle
ment of the respective fishing rights OF
Canada and the United States Will prove
satisfactory unless the policy OF England
in the negotiations is based on the recon-
incubation of the Canadian Government;
protesting against the encrOaehments OF the
Federal Government upon the rights of the
Provinces; declaring that the right OF the
Province of Manitoba under the British
North American Act to charter nlilways
within its boundaries should not be inter
fered with; that no member, solicitor or
emplOye of corporation, seeking or reeely-
Ing land or money subsidies or other pecu-
MARY advantages from the Government
should be permitted to SIT or vote in Par
lament, and that this convention Is strong
ly in favor OF a treaty Of reciprocity with

Switching Going ON As Usual ana
All Quiet Yesterday.

CHICAGO, July 2.-The usual quiet pro
vailed in the Lake Shore yards tins morn
ing. and nothing but the presence oil tne
Pinkerton force would indicate that .
strike was in progress. The company lost
no time in following up the advantage tney
gained in the operations at the Stock \ ards
Yesterday. Before 8 o'clO K an engine ana
caboose, guarded with Pinkerton men ana
police, was dispatched to Pac&ingtown- AN
hour was spent in switching on Forty-seV-
enth street with no more serious opposition
than the hooting and yelling of the women
and children who gathered from blocks
around to watch the unusual sight OF tram
hands working under guard oil armed
men. Switching was going on as usual IN
the yards at South Chicago, Englewood'
Forty-third and Twelfth streets. There
was no opposition of any kind, and from
the indications it wo1ld seem that the
strike was at an end. g

LoxDox, July 2.-To-day the opening
guns in the great battle between the sd-.
berents Of Gl .dstone, the followers Of Salis-
bury, and the element which styles itself
the ''Unionist party" are being drefl
The arena of the struggle for justice to
Ireland has been transferred from Vest
minister 10 tho country at large, and the
voters Of the large towns Of Bristol in tho
west, Liverpool, Leeds and Manchester in
the north, Aberdeen in Scotland, and some
thhty-liy other election districts, are excr-
cising tine right Of freemen at the polla.
Never since the time when Fox and Burke
quarreled over the French Revolution has
the Liberal party gone to the polls with
such disruption in its ranks as exists to-day,
but the followers Of the statesman II the
House Of Midlothian are confident that the
results Of to-lay's voting will show such
preponderancc of feeling in support Of the
Government as will materially affect the
borough and county elections Of the next
two weeks. The interest In the contcsts Of
to-day is unparalleled. and throughout the
country millions Of people arc anxiously
watching the bulletin boards TO learn the
result of the contests.
Mr.. Harrington says the parnellites are
certain Of S5 seats. They are alo sure "
West Belfast, and have fair prospect In
Derry. In Tyrone they ARE pretty SURF TO
oust Hamilton, while for Mr.. William
O'Brien's seat there will be close light,
though his opponent, Mr.. Russell, Is NOS
strong enough to evoke tho enthusiasm a.
either the Orangemen or Unionisis Or.
ders signed by President 0'Connor and
Secretary Brady have bcen sent 10 tho
branches of the National League In Great
Britain, urging lrishnieu 10 vote for Min
istcrialist candidates The issue, " they
say, lis Of momcntous Importance ta Ire
land and we fer,entty hope that every
Irish vote will he polled."
In regard 10 the voting in Colchester,
Yesterday, the Standard of to-day says.
''rho result in Colchester yesterday cannot
be pronounced wholly satisfactory. Each
side polled fewer votes than at the Inst
election, but maniftstly there was No
marked transfer Of support. The iilcrals
who oppose Mr.. Gladstone have shown
their dissatisfaction rather by ahstaining
than bcstOwing their votes ON the Con.
servative candidate. At the same time u
bodies i'll for Gladstonians that In what,
according to their own prediction, Was >

nearly doubled since Mr.. Gladstone o.
