THE MIDNIGHT BELL.

Slowly and solen1ply the great bell tolls
The hour of midnight; now the sound hoatz
clear
Across the Stiffness falling on the ear
Like the sad knell that peals for passing souls;
Now, like the boom of distant guns it rolls
Far off INTO the night, and vague fear
Comes DER the listener, when sailors hear
The roar of breakers upon hidden shoals.
Then, caught upon the breeze before they Gle,
Above the slumbering city from the hill,
The last strokes chime out, iinging to the sky
Their deep toned music, whose vibrations fill
The whole wide air; then, fading to sigh,
The trembling sound is lost, and all is still.

BosToN, July 2s.-John L. Sullivan's
circus has come to an end, leaving, it
is said, large number of unpaid en-

guarded what was left of the prop

of the property, is here. He is quoted
as saying that he receivee letter from
his lawyer day or two ago, advising
him to come here if he wished to save
any of his goods. When he arrived he
found that the employees, twenty-six in
number, and all of the performers, had
received no pay in two weeks, and that
some of them had waited still longer.
They, of course, had no claim against
the property, and where Sullivan and

LONDON, July 2s.-The Liberals and
Parnellites had a consultation in the
house of commons yesterday evening
concerning the charges and counter
charges made by the Times and MIR.
Parnell. Many of those present eX-
pressed their belief that the bring
ing of an action for libel by
Mr.. Parnell against the Times would be
preferable to his investigation by a
commission authorized by the present
shape of the bill for that purpose and
declared that the action at law would
be the simplest way to solve the diff
Guilty. John Moreley, upon whose adj
vice
MIR. PARNELL IMPLICITLY RELIES,
urged the Irish leader to cast his lot
upon the outcome of a suit, unless the
government shall limit tole scope of the
commission of inquiry to specific
charges and instructS the investigating
body to make the letters the primary is

better off before a jury than he would

A Dangerous AspiPant for the
Presidency of Hayti Banished
From the Island.
Special Cable to the Globe.
SANTIAGO DE CUBA, July 2S.-Gen.
Francisco Manigal, who was recently
expelled from Hayti, spent several days
is this city on his way to Europe. He is
full-blooded negro and a man of
marked ability. He has held many i'm
portant offices under President Solo
mon. having been minister of war, of
forelgn affairs, and of the interior. By
many he is regarded as the coming man
OF Hayti. His expulsion from the coun-
try was due to his aspirations to the
presidency. President Solomon, it is
SAID, told the general that he. intended
to retain the presidency during the re-
mainder of his lifetime, and that he
was already past eighty, and he desire d
to be left in possession OF the office
the rest of his days. 1t, would
be uncomfortable for him to have so
powerful an aSpirant to the presidency
in the same country. He therefore re-
quests the general toleave Hayti for the
present. The request was accompanied
by gift of s., 1000, and was too pointed
to permit refusal. All accounts of the
political condition of Hayti agree in
saying that President Solomon has no
easy task in maintaining his power. His
enemies are numerous, and they are
not over-scrupulous in the choice of
means to accomplish their purpose.
Later reports of the fires at Port au
Prince increSe the horror of the Situa-
tion. Many murders were committed
by the drunken and infuriated blacks.
People have been leaving Hayti for

Hertz, members and most of them
officers of the George Washington
Lodge, United States Benevolent Fra
Iternity, were arrested last night on
charge of conspiring to defraud the order
out of So, 5,OOO. The main facts connected
with the affair were telegraphed
several months ago, but without
names aud details. A man
representing Charles Zeifie, then on the
point of death at the city hospital. was
initiated into the lodge, and upon his
death few weeks later his beard was
dyed and wig put ON him to give him
the appearance of the man initiated and
deceive the members of the order at the
funeral. Before the amount of the in
Surance, $1,000, was received from Balti-

sister became suspicious, and it was
through her exertions that an investiga-

Mr.. Campbell Again on the Stand

nation.
FoINEs, July 2s.-Again to-day
eer Campbell was on the
brow questioning him in
,..e-.->@ ~ examination of the
other day and it was largely
repetition of that. The witness
had advised coal miners at Rip
pey that he believed they could get
better rates than the companie S
were at first disposed to give. The
rates fixed by the commissioners are
maximum only, and no company is
obliged to charge them in full. He was
questioned concerning the rates estab-
liShed at the time of the Glenwood
controversy, before he became mem
Der of the board. He believed those
rates were incorrect. The board had
thought the rates previously charged by
the roads for short hauls of coal
were too low to permit the board
to compel all roads to do business under.
The May 10th railroad tariff had closed
up every mine which was so situated
that it must go on second road to reach
a market. He believes the interstate
law was right in compelling companies
to do business for everybody on like
terms. During the afternoon Commits
sioner Campbell said that he believed
that Judge Brewers injunction was
costing the people of Iowa $50, GOO day.
