LONDON. Nov. 29.-In the House of Com

to the continued imprisonment OF Mr..
Moroney in Kilmainham Jail for conte npb

Mr.. Bradlaugh maintained that this re-
fusal, although illegal, was morally justi-
fed, and that Mr.. Maroney ought not to be
punished by indefinite imprisonment.
Mr.. Balfour, chief secretary for Ireland.
and Sir Richard Webster, attorney-gen-
eral, contended that the government had
no power to order the release of Mr.. Moro

COLD FLOODED MURDER.
Full Details of the Terrible Tragedy
Near Lake w cir.

GAMBLER, FLA, Nov. 27-News has just
reached here OF terrible affray near Ock-
lawaha station, at North Lake Weir. in
which J. NJ. Roach has in all probability
lost his life at the hands of Benjamin Rice,
OF the same place The parties have had an
old grudge between them for yea $, and the
bad feeling broke out to-day and resulted
In the shooting of Roach. They left North
Lake Weir to go to Ocklawaha depot for
freight. Rice was hauling for
H. C Wright e CO., of which
firm he is member, and Roach
was hauling for Aver 81 Scott. They left
the depot together, and when half milo
away and near the residence OF Dr. Myers
the shooting occurred. Rice was ahead
and Roach following. When they reached
the North Lake Weir grave yard, Rice
stopped and waited for Roach to come up,
and when he did so he made it appear that
he was looking for lost bolt from bis
wagon in the road. AS soon as Roach
stopped he walked up to him and told him
that he now meant to kill him right there,
and leave his body at the grave yard SO as
to be handy fer burial. Roach was un-
armed and taken by surprise. He pleaded
for his life, imploring the would be mur-
derer to spare him for the sake Of his wife
and children, aud not to kill an uu-
armed man. "By you have lived
long enough and mean to kill you right
here" exclaimed Rice, and drew hislpistol,
a No. A Smith & WeSson, and fired on the
helpless man. The ball took effect in the
groin, passed upward through the :stom-
ach and came out near the kidneys in the
ba k. lie fell from his seat in tho wagon
aad cried murder" Messrs. Armtield and
Steward, who were at work near by, ,rushe d
to the scene and got there just as Rice was
going to shoot the PROSTATE man again.
They lifted Roach up and carried him to
the residence Of DIR. Myers, where he now
lies at tho point of death. Rice
got in his wagon and drove
on to his store and told his brother
in-law Tom Wright tn t he had done up
Roach at last. At the news Wright tainted,
AID is now in bed completely Frustrated.
The sheriff at Ocala was at once telegraphed
for, and will be there on the $50 train TO
take Rice into custody. The dare devil
man has made no attempt to escape. AT
late hour tonight the attending physicians
said Roach cannot live until morning.
Both parties were highly respected citizens
and prominent men on the lake. The ex-
element runs high and trouble is feared
unless Rice is speedily secured and carried
to jail. as he is a desperate man when mad.
Roach was a well-to-dO man, who came
here a few years ago from Kentucky, and
was the contrac or for carrying the mail
from Ocklawaha depot to North Lake Weir.
Rice is from Murfreesboro, Tenn, and a
prominent wealthy man. Both have

SALISBURY IN SCOTLAND.
He Warns the People to Fight Shy {
Gladstone's Schemes.

He Warns the People to Fight Shy of
Gladstone's Schemes.
LONDON, Nov. 29--Lord Salisbury in a
speech to-day at Edinburgh, after return
ing thanks for the resolution of confidence
in the government, said he believed that
Scotland was beginning to realize the
dangers of Gladstoneism, and was becoming
unionisu. 1t was matter for regret that
Scoth affairs were so neglected, and that
Scotland was being treated by the
legislature in inverse proportion
to her patience. He trusted that
the governments scheme of local
government for Scotland would prove salts
factory. He urged the Scotch to put no
trust in Mr.. Gladstone's home rule promises
which, he said, were vague, bee use within
Mr. Gladstoues own mild his plan WAS un-
defined. The new home rule plann was
concealed because there was no plan to re-
veal.
The speech was enthusiastically received
by an audience numbering 5000 persons.
A MAJORITY CUT DOWN.
The election in the Holborn district of
London to-day resulted in the choice OF
Bruce Conservative 10y a vote of 4,30S
against 3,433 for Lord Compton Glad
stonian). In the election two years ago Col.
Duncan Conservative, whose death last
week left the seat in parliament vacant,
had a majority of | ZOO out of a total vote
of $500.
HURRAHED TOO QUICK.
During the evening report reached the
House of Commons that Lord Compton, the
Gladstonian candidate in the Holborn dis
trict of London, had been elected. When
the news was received the Gladstonian men,
bers stood on the benches and cheered them
selves hoarse. A subsequent report showed
that Mr.. Brice, the conservative candidate,
was successful, aud similar scene was en-
acted by the conservative members. So
prolonged was the cheering that the speaker
with difficulty restored order.

A Fugitive Relative Wrote Back,
Claiming to Have Committed the
Crime
LYNcHBURG, VA, Nov. pa special to
the AdrGnce from Wytheville, Va, says:
"a band of armed men wearing masks
broke open the Jail here at 2 o'clock this
morning. and rescued Wayman Sutton,
under sentence of death for the murder Of
Peter Harvell. 1t was rumored last even
ing that party was being formed near
Rural Retreat for the purpose of rescuing
Sutton, who was to have been hanged to-
morrow, and the sheriff summoned posse
to guard the Jail. The jailors statement is
that party Of men came there and de-
manded admittance, which be refused.
BROKE OPEN THE DOOR
"They thereupon broke the door open
with sledge hammer, and the nall was i'm
mediately filed with masked men armed
with guns and pistols. They covered him
with a dozen guns and demanded tho KEYS
to the cells which he refused to deliver,
whereupon they searched his private apart
ment and found them in his wife's sewing
machine. After securing Sutton, they
locked up some Of the guards in his cell aad
left for the west end of the county. T e
party is variously estimated by parties who
saw it at from so to 1000. The slelge ham,
mer that was used was found In the jail this
morning.
VERY LITTLE CLEw.
There is very little clew to who the par
ties were.
Peter Harvell was murdered in March,
1887 and the evidence, all of which was
circumstantial, pointed to Wayman Sutton
and his father-in-law, Morgan Pendleton,ss
the perpetrators of the deed. Harvell's
house had been previously destroyed
by an incendiary, and himself badly
wounded by a woud-be assassin, and he
was still suffering frcm the wound when
murdered.
Pendleton and Sutton were seen in the
neighborhood of the house previous to the
murder, and he general impression in the
neighborhood was that they had been hired
to kill him.
PENDLEToN IN KENTUCKY.
"Pendleton is said to be in kentucky, and
letter purporting to have been written by
him in which he declared that he, and not
Sutton was the murderer, was recently SUBJ
mitted to Gov. Lee. Sutton was arrested
in Indiana last June and brought back to
Wytheville, where his trial took place He
was convicted Of murder In the first degree
at the March term of Wythe county
court and the circuit court refused to rehear
the case. The matter was then tlken
before the state supreme court of appeals
and the Judgments of the lower tribunals
were sustained.
APPEALS TO THE GOVERNOR.
"In this extremity friends OF the con-
demned man appealed to Gov. Lee for
clemency, and he, after an exhaustive re-
view Of the testimony, declined to in-
terfere. 1t does not appear that he
placed any confidence in the alleged
letter from Pendleton, but laid down
the broad proposition that the executive
has no right to interfere with, or sat aside
the action Of a competent and Intelligent
jury.
'Since his confinement, Sutton has been
visited by many friends who do not believe
him guilty, as his conviction was obtained
solely upon circumstantial evidence"

with the Gale.
CHARLESTON, S. c. Nov. 20. - The
steamer Gulf Stream, reported overdue, ar
rived this morning. She was delayed by
the gales, and shifted and damaged her
cargo. Her cabin and other doors were
stove in.
The Gulf Stream left New York on Nov.
90 and experienced terrible gale on the
morning of Nov 25 off Body island. The
rudder chain parted and the vessel was
driven 500 miles southeast of Charleston.
She shipped quantities OF water,
the pumps became choked and
the officers and men were constantly
occupied in baling. On the afternoon of
Nov. 27 the engines, which had been rem
dered useless by the seas shipped, got to
work. and Charleston bar was reached at
midnight. The steamer will at once load
with cotton for New York.
OIL ON THE SEA.
The vessel was only saved from destruc-
tion by the free use Of oil poured from pipes
in her side into the sea. There was four
feet Of water at one time in her hold, and
the only means of bailing it out was by
buckets, which the sailors continuously used
for forty hours. During the highth of the
gale the engines were stopped for twenty
hours, and the sails of the steamer were
used to keep her before the wind. The
cargo, consisting of general merchandise,
has been very much damaged. No passen-
gers were on board, the Gulf Stream being
used entirely for freight.

CHICAGO, Nov. GA special from st.
Louis says the jute bagging trust is re-
ported to be going to pieces. The sales of
bagging by the combination have been far
below the usual fall average. In addition to
tne shrinkage in the sales, another obstacle
now confronts the bagging trust, which
causes 10 small uneasiness in its ranks.
mere are in all twenty-four bagging
factories in the United States, and Of these
sixteen are shut down, having been leased
Oy the combine" and closed.
LEASES ABOUT TO EXPIRE.
g. jan these leases expire, aud the sixteen
factories are ready TO start up again unless
once more leased by the trust and allowed
70 remain idle. So far there has been no
arrangement made toward releasing by the
oagglng combine" and il is probable that
seVeral factories will start up after the
opening Of the new year, which is calcu-
iated TO interfere considerably with the
pans OF the combine and naturally cause
d serious decline in the price of bagging.

LONDON, Nov. 29-Inspector Crane gave
evidence before the Parnell commission to-
day as to the progress of crime in
Ireland being coincident with tho
formation of branches of the league.
Wherever the league organization
was started, outrages followed. Not every
Lacquer was moonighter, but a majority
of the moonlighters were leaguers. On
cross-examination the witness admitted
that he had never been able to trace di-
rectly connection of persons convicted Of
OutrageS with the league Certainly no Of
fetal of the league had ever been convicted.
No crime had occurred in connection with
the home rule agitation or extension of the
franchise Every crime arose over land
disputes.
Inspector Rice deposed that he had always
understood that the mooulighters executed
the behests of the league. On being cross
examined by Mr.. Harrington the witness
said he could not point out single instance,
supported by proof, where the league had
directed a moonlight outrage
