New Evidence fn the Case.

BOSTON, May 6.-In connection with the Lillie Hoyle case it is stated that consider able new evidence has been discovered. It is asserted that the government has evidence to show that on the night of the girls dis appearance there was meeting of three or more persons in room over McQuade's liquor store in Webster, the parties being Lillie Hoyle, Dixon R. Cowis, Thomas B. McQuade and another, probably a stable- keeper of the town who has been missing since; also that the murdered girls sister, Alice, will probably testify that Lillie was chloroformed and that she died under its in- fuence. It is stated that on the night the girl disappeared the engineer of afreight train that passed through Webster saw a wagon containing two men and what appeared to be the unconscious form of woman being droven toward the place where the body WAS found. Other evidence has been ob- tained which the Governor claims will surely convict McQuade and Cowie. On the other nand Boston dry goodf salesman has been found who was an intimate acquaintance of McQuade and who claims that he can prove an alibi for him.

A LIVELY SCENE IN THE HOUSE.

Congressmen Throw the Lie and Their
 Fists in Each others Faces.
 WASHINGTON. May 6.-Representative woodburn. Republican member from Neva- da and an Irishman, stirred up the House of Representatives yesterday in his speech against the Mills tariff bill. The trouble all grew out of the fact that Woodburn, in touching on the Irish question, charged Abram s. Hewitt with having, while 8 mem- Der of the House, apologized to the British minister for the action of the House in pass ing resolution relative to the imprisonment of Irishmen in England. General Bryce rushed over to the Republican side and brandishing his fist, shouted that the charge was false. Brumm of Pennsylvania, the strong lunged labor and greenback agitator, jumped up within two feet of Bryce and, shaking his fist in his face, shouted that Woodburn was right; he himself had offered the resolution and knew all the circumstances connected with it. He yelled and Bryce yelled, and as they shook their fists within an inch of each others noses and repeatedly passed the lie tho members all yelled, and the chairman vAinly pounded the desk with the gavel and commanded order. In the midst of the excitement the musical voice of
 Tin Campbell was heard inquiring: "Mr. Chairman, is this the Senate of the United
 Statesl" This served to restore good humor,
 and the noise and excitement subsided. Soon
 afterward General Bryce went over to MT. Brumm's desk and a secret reconciliation took place.
 As an Irishman, MT. Woodburn in his speech called upon Patrick Collins to rise in the House and oppose the Mills bill as an English free trade measure. Collins must do it, he said, to be consistent, as he was recently president of an association that issued manifesto calling upon Irishmen to boycott every article of British manufacture. Collins was nos present In the House and so did not reply to brother Irishman's demand. Woodburn's speech was quite unexpected. and everyone was surprised at its strength. The Nevada member has never taken any part in the proceedings before, but he rat tied off his speech to-day as though he colld do it every day of his life. Several members did not even know his name when he arose, and yet this man was member ot
 the Forty ninth Congress, and was mem Der of the electoral commission and was in. strumental as one of the visiting statesmen | in returning the State of Florida for Hayes
 His speech yesterday pleased the Republicans l as much as anything that has been said or their side of the House during the present debate,

His sermon is commented upon as possibly heter- odox He strongly urged the view that men will not be punished for sin unless they sin against the light, that the innocent will not be punished for the guilty, that all who seek salvation shall obtain it and that the evil re- suits of sin though penalty are not pun ishment.

 DempseY's Signal.


 NDw YORK, May 6.-The worlds cham pionship six days walk opened at midnight at Madison Square Garden, a large crowd be- ing present. John L. Sullivan's non-appear- ance caused great discontent, large part of the assemblage having been attracted by the belief that he would start the race.

Bridegroom KiIIs Himself.
A WONDERFBL PREACHER Who Has Had Strange and Curious
 History.

LONDON, May GA celebrated event in the modern history of the Roman Catholic church is called to mind by the appearance in Madrid of Father Mortara, delicate looking man thirty seven years of age, who has created furore by his thoughtful, worn face, eloquent preaching and marvellous knowledge of lan- guages. He speaks and writes thoroughly twenty-two tongues. Madrid has gone wild over him and his sermons have so moved the Queen. princesses and ladies of the court that more funds than he can we'll dispose of have been subscribed for convent chapel which he is building at Onate, in the Basque high lands. This young priest is the same Edgar Mortara, a Jewish child born in the States of the church, whose education and alleged for cible abduction from his parents by the papal authorities caused such sensation thirty years ago. The French government attempt ed to obtain the custody of the child. The Archbishop of Canterbury and host of English clergy and laity signed protest against his removal from his parents, and Sir Moses Montefore went specially to Rome on his behalf, but all to no avail. His reappear- ance now as an eloquent man and profound theologian attracts great attention.

A Message From the Dead Monarch
Next '

PROVIDENCE, R. T., May 5.-There are re- ports from Boston and New York that the New. York, New Haven and Hartford rail- road company has leased or entered upon ne- gotiations looking toward leasing the Ston- ington line. Those who have been promi- nently identified with the interests of these corporations positively assert that a consoli- dation will soon be arranged, if it has not been already. Such a contract would make practically one corporation of the New Hav- en, the Stonington and the Worcester rail roads. There is also talk of the Stonington steamship company being ultimately leased to the New Haven road. About two-thirds of the steamship stock is owned by the Ston- ington line.
 President Clark of the Consolidated says in regard to the above that there is no immedi- ate prospect of any such new deal. The matter has been talked over more or less for two or three years. What President Clark had heard about the subject was exclusively thrav gh the newspapers.
