The Cutting Case.


THE TALK ON THE BORDER-Gov IRELAND
SAYS HE MUST PROTECT HIS PEOPLE.
A special from the editor of the Binghamton
IN. " Republican, dated at Ell Paso, says that
Consul Brigham says that Cutting was unfairly
tried by star chamber proceedings, and that
neither he nor Cutting knows just what the
proceedings in the court were or what Cutting
was tried for. It is suspected that the court
records will be tampered with to cover some
his expectations to the American eagle. There
is some excited talk at Ell Paso, but the reports
about war preparations either here or across the
river are all nonsense.
GOV. IRELAND SAYS HE MUST PROTECT HIS
PEOPLE.
Gov. Ireland, In an interview with q Tribune
correspondent, Is quoted as criticising Secretary
Bayard for not settling the Cutting matter at
once. ''As soon as our demand for his release

JOHN DEvOY SAYS THAT Is THE MEANING OF
THE OGDEN GROVE DEMONSTRATIONS.
CHICAGO, August 16.-The Daily Neus pub
fishes u communication over n column in
length, signed by John Dewey, in which he says
the address read at the Ogden Grove Irish
demonstration Saturday "justifies the charges
that have been made against the present iid-
ministratiOn of the league" Dewey says: at
publicly denied, OF the set of nationalists of
which Alexander Sullivan is the controlling
spirit. That address Is q declaration OF war on
ParnelL." The address il construed by Dewey
as a condemnation of the peaceful policy OF the
league and denial OF '' Parnelfs authority or
that OF the organization of which he is the chief
to accept on behalf OF Ireland any scheme of
home rule that may be proposed by an English
ministry" Dewey concludes as follows: Every
man put forward by the Ogden Grove demon
league will represent the bogus physical-force
policy, and every resolution proposed by them
will contain the same poison disguised as pa
triotism. Therefore, they must be crushed, so
that the national movement may live. Their
triumph will mean war on Parnell, begun when
movement filled with brighter promise than
Ireland has seen for q century"

CHAPTER VII
MALTA.

And so it was the son of the Royigno
fisherman who had just told his name to
Doctor Antekirtt. BY providental
chance it was Luigi Ferrato whose cour-
age and ability had saved the yacht and
her passengers and crew from certain
destruction
The Doctor was going to seize Luigi
himself. 1t would have been Count
Sandorf who would have thus shown his
gratitude; and Count Sandorf was dead
to everybody, even to tho son Of Andrea
Ferrato.
But if Pierre Bathory was obliged to
keep the same reserve, and for tho same
reasons, he was about to forget it when
the Doctor stopped him by look. Tho
two went into the saloon, and Luigi was
asked to follow.
My friend, asked the Doctor "aro
you the son of an Istrian fisherman
whose name was Andrea Ferrato ?"
Eyes, sir :"
Have You not sister ~
Yes, and we live together Mt Valetta
Dub lic uuici WIFI ~ ccIluln amount
of hesitation did you know my
father"
Your father p answered the Doctor;
'your father, fifteen years ago, gave
shelter to two fugitives in his house at
Rovigno Those fugitives were friends
of mine which his devotion was unable
to save. But that devotion cost Andrea
Ferrato his liberty and his life, for on
account of it he was sent to Stein. where
he died.
Yes, died, but he did not regret
what he had done, " said Luigi.
The Doctor took the young mans
hand.
'Luigi." said he, cit was to me that
my friends gave the task of paying tho
debt of gratitude they owed your father.
For many years have been seeking to
find what had become of your sistor and
you, but all trace had been LOST when
you left Rovigno Thank Heaven, you
were sent to our assistance ! The shin

harbor? Apilot might perhaps attempt
the dangerous maneuvre but III this
dense atmosphere, III this night of RAIN
and fog, what fisherman would venture
out even to vessel in distress? There
was perhaps, n chance tina one might
come, and SO the steam whistle was set
going, and three cannon shots were fired
one after the other rs signal.
Suddenly from the landward side Il
black point appeared in the fog. \
boat was bearing down on the Ferrato
under close-reefed sail. Probably it
was some fisherman who had been
obliged by the storm TO take shelter in
the little creek of Melleah, where his
boat run i'll behind the rocks, had found
safety in that admirable grotto of
Calypso which bears favorable COM
parison with the grotto of Fin9al in the
Hebrides He had evidently heard the
whistle and the signal of distress, and Mt
the risk of his life had come to the help
of the half-disabled yacht. If the Fer
ratio was to be saved, it could only be by
him.
Slowly his boat came up. A rope was
got ready to be thrown to him as soon
as he came alongside \ few minutes
elapsed which seemed interminable.
The steamer was not above half a cables
length from the reefs. The rope was
thrown, but a huge wave caught tho
boat on its crest, and dashed it against
the side of the Ferrato. 1t was smashed
to pieces, and the fisherman would have
certainly persisted had not Matifou
snatched at him, lifted him at arms
length, and laid him on the deck rs if
he had been a child.
Then without q word-would there
have been time the man ran to the
bridge, seized the wheel. and as the
bows of the Ferrato fell off towards the
rocks, he sent the wheel-spokes spin
ming round, beaded her straight for tho
narrow channel of the North Comino,
took her down it with the wind dead aft
and in less than twenty minutes was off
the east shore of Malta in much calmer
sea. Then with sheets hauled III he ran
along about half mile from the coast,
and about four o'clock in the morning,
when the first streaks of dawn began to
tinge the horizon he ran down tho Val
eta channel and brought-up the steamer
off Senglea Point.
Doctor Antekirtt then mounted the
bridge, and said to the young sailor:
You saved us, my friend"
81 only did my duty.
'Are you pilot Z"
mo. am only fisherman"
"And your name ?"
