THE PARNELL LIBEL.
Opening Proceedings in the Suit
Against the "Times.'
The Newspaper Claims IL Can sus-
tain Its Charges Even With
out the Letters.

EDINBURGH, Oct. 27.-ln the court
of sessions to-day the case of Parnell
against the London Times was again
called. Stachan and Balfour, Parnell's
counsel, moved that closure Of the
record of proof be allowed. Murray,
counsel for the Times, moved that the
question Of jurisdiction in this case be
set for determination to the procedure
roll. The prosecution had made
alterations in their complaint. They
had devoted all the reference 10 the
statement that Parnell supplied Byrne
with money to enable him to escape
justice, and it was no longer allowed
that the statement was false. untrue
and malicious.
The Judge said this left the record
with only one question.
Murray said be wanted the question
Of jurisdiction to 60 to the procedure
roll because no relevant averment as
to jurisdiction had beer made, he said.
The defendants statement had not
been met The plaintiffs made simple
denial. The prosecution had taken
no notice Of ayerments concerning
English law.
Sfachan replied that the only ques-
ton Of English law involved referred
to a summons taken out of England.
Attorney General Webster, continued
Stachan, spoke in the O'Donnell trial
OF instructions which the Times had
given him, but the Times had edi-
tonally adopted the attorney generals
alleged stand.
The court granted the motion that
the record be closed.
Murray said the only publication
averred in the complaint was that
copies of the Times were mailed 10
persons in Scotland. This avermcnt.
he continued, was Irrelevant.
The Times record maintains the
whole Of its charges. IL alleges that
the action Is an attempt on Parneli's
part TO avoid full inquiry by the
Parnell commission and limit the is
sue OF the commissions work to the
sole question OF the genuineness OF
three letters. Defendants don't RELY
upen the letters for the proof OF their
statements. which are equally true
even IL the letters were not signed as
purported. On the day before the
summons In this case was issued the
prosecution secured the issuance be-
fore the court OF queens bench Of a
writ in action for libel for f50o0. As
that action Is pending, other proceed
ings with respect to the same matter
are by English law barred. The pub

statement In the O'Dounell case and a
fair rt Of the proceedings are priv

no action can lie. The Times' articles

to-day under the escort of President

The parade of railroad men tonight

composed of railroad employees from
Terre Haute. Richmond, Loganspor,
and New Albany, together with local
organizations, composed the parade
and made fine display. Several
transparencies referred to Lork Sack
yille's letter and elected considerable
applause and laughter.
fomlirfson's hall was crowded to its
utmost capacity, and when Gen. Har-
rison appeared he was greeted with a
prolonged outburst of enthusiastic
cheering. The vast audience arose
and set up an indescribable uproar
with drums and horns, while nearly
1000 lanterns were swaying in the air.
The demonstration was the most no.
table one of the campaign and lasted Is
minutes. To-night's speech was the
10Th that Gen. Harrison has made dur

ZANZIBAR, December 2l.-Letters dated

Henry M. Stanley on August 18th.
Stanley was then at Bonyala, on the

plenty OF food. Emin was in possession
of vast stores Of ivory and many oxen.
Stanley had returned to Bonyala for
loads of stores in charge of his rear

later to rejoin Emin. He reported ali
the whites in the expedition healthy and
said the expedition wanted nothing.

LONDON, December 21.-In the Com
mons this afternoon the news from
Stanley and Emin Bey was received with
enthusiasm.
In the Committee on the Appropria-
tion bill, Gorst being in the chair, DR..
Tanner, DIR. Clark and Mr.. Caldwell pro-
posed amendments to various parts of the
bill, and Goschen ruled them all out of
order. DR.. Tanner excitedly protested
against the chairman's ruling. He said ::
when we are here in the Committee of
Supply, appropriating money to swim
dler, thief and servant of the Irish Sec
retary, Balfour ought to be here, and not
be such coward as he is"
Goschen ordered DR.. Tanner to resume
his seat and to withdraw the word
Coward"
DIR. Tanner retorted, II call him both
coward and liar"
Goschen moved that Tanner be sus-
pended. To this the House agreed with
out division, and Tanner left the Cham

AN AFFIDAVIT appears elsewhere from
a young Los Angeles man whose wife got
divorce from him in San Francisco a
few months ago under very singular
state of facts, as he declares under oath.
1t would appear from the affidavit that
the youthful Benedict was the victim of a
plot as deep and diabolical as ever the
beautiful Stefanie and her roue consor,
planned. Whilst we have no doubt that
the betrayed youth tells "a plain, unvar.
nished tale" about the whole course ol
his wooing and his wrongs, yet when he
couples the name Of gentleman like
DR.. A. F. Sawyer with a conspiracy o.
30 black character, we beg to emphati
cally place our doubt OIL record. The
lawyers of the divorced wife may have
put up the job" but that man o.
honor and the most unblemished fame
such as we know DIR. Sawyer to be
could have anything to do with trans
action of the kind is beyond belief.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-12-22

JUST as all the world was beginning
to give up Stanley for lost, news OF 9
credible character comes from the in.
terror OF Africa that he and Emin Bey
had arrived safe at Arum wini, in the
neighborhood of Lake Albert Nyanza.
A letter is said to have been received
from him, through Tippoo Tib's men, at
Stanley Falls on the Congo on the 2Sth
of August, which states that he was then
at Bonyala, on the Arumwini. If this
report can be accepted as true, then
Stanley is still alive. and will yet be
restored to civilization.

what ought to be Done.

Whilst the northern part of California
is putting forth strenuous efforts to at
tract the attention of the transmontane
States, we should not relax in the good
work of advertising the matchless ad-
vantage of Southern California to all
classes Of intending immigrants
But this cannot be done well
and effectually without money. The
newspapers of this city are really doing
the lions share of the missionary work
Of converting the Eastern mind to re-
alizing sense of our unapproachable at
fractions. Such a showing as the
HERALD made in last Sundays
issue is of more value in Civ
ing the denizens of the bliz-
zard regions of the West and those of the
hyperborean realms of the East, clear
conception of the beauties of our climate,
the matchless fertility of our soil and the
wonderful profits possible to agricultur-
lists in this favored section, than
all the pamphlets and broad
sides that could be scattered over
the land. The elaborated facts
carefully set forth in the columns of a
newspaper of recognized standing carry
Ia conviction with them that is not
accorded to special and desultory adver-
tising in unaccredited pamphlets. The
Chamber Of Commerce, the Board
of Trade and other organizations
should come to the aid Of the news
papers in their valuable work.
Money should be raised, not in meagre
and attenuated sums, but in large and
liberal measure, to enable the press Of
this city to carry out on larger and
broader scale the work they have been
doing so we'll. Heretofore there has
been a disposition to contribute
largely to ephemeral publications, got
up by Tom, Dick and Harry upon specu-
lation. That is mere waste, and should
be stopped. Lst the organizations having
the work of advertising our section in
hand gather all the valuable data they
can obtain. The papers will work
this data up in readable
and attractive shape so that it
will strike the Eastern reader favorably.
Then have the editions widely distributed
all over the country, and the good effect
will soon be felt here. 1t is not exactly
the fair thing to expect the newspapers
to do all this work without compensa-
ton. They cannot afford it. The whole
community is benefited by it. and the
community ought to contribute literally
to keeping it up. If the Chamber of
Commerce will set about the task Of
raising the necessary funds in svste-
matte way, there will be no difficulty in
securing the amount required.
