LORD SACKVILLE'S LETTER.
MINISTER PHELPS AND LORD SALISBURY
IN CONFERENCE AT HATFIELD HOUSE.

Mr. PHELPS's ARGUMENT FOR THE RECALL o.
LORD sAcKvILLE-LoRD SALISBURY sERL
0UsLY IMPREssED-DIPLoMATIc CIR
Giles IN LONDON STIRRED UP.
London, Oct 27-The Sackville letter incident
has caused q considerable stir in diplomatic cir
cles
Lord Salisbury remained at Hatfield House, his
country seat to-day. He received several cabs
dispatches from Lord Sackvile, the British Min
lister at Washington admitting the facts In con-
ncction with the Murchison letter and saying that
he regretted them. A number OF dispatches from
Secretary Of State Bayard were forwarded TO Lord
Salisbury, in which the Secretary of State urged
that in view Of the coming National election in the
United States 1t was impcratively necessary thas
tive at Washington in order to calm the popular
excitement. Mr.. Phelps the American Ministes.
and Mrs. Phelps visited Hatfield House this after
noon and will be the guests of Lord Salisbury until
Monday. Mr. Phelps and Lord Salisbury held
long consultation in the library. Mr. Phelps en-
larged upon the necessity Of prompt action
on the part of the British Government in order
to repair the evil Mr.. Phelps made special
point that by treating Murchison as a British
subject entitled to advice, despite the fact that
he stated in his letter that he was naturalized
citizen of the United States, Lord Saclsvile had
disregarded and violated the understanding Of
September, 1871, when Mr.. Fish, then Secretary
of State, obtained from the English Government
recognition of the American doctrine Of naturali-
zation.
Lord Salisbury admitted that this was a most
serious point of view of Lord Sackvillcs conduct.
The matter is more annoying to Lord Sails
bury, inasmuch Lord Sackville's appointments
originally was attributed to the influence Of his
sister, who was the second wife of the late Mar
quis of Salisbury, and who has since been mar
ried to the present Earl Of Derby
1t is said that Lord Salisbury fayors the retire
ment of Lord Sac1vlle.
The officials at the United States Legation are
extremely reticent the subject Of the Sack
vile affair. Mr.. White, First Secretary of the
Legation, when asked about the matter declined
to talk.

The great fact Of the moment in the history
of the Parnell Commission is the fact that the
Attorney General yesterday finished his five days
opening speech The Commission forthwith ad-
journed to Tuesday This speech must, however,
be Judged from an English point Of view. A
coupsers opening statement in an English court
is always far more elaborate than in an American.
Sir Richard Webster is thought to have done
his work well though tediously lie
was bound to traverse again oft-fr0dden ground,
20 rccite the history of the Land League and the
National League, and to repeat the grim story OF
outrage and crime which, in Mr.. Gladstonc's
words, doeged the footsteps of the League with
fatal precision 1t was his duty as an advocate
10 epdeavor to establish connection between CON
spiracy in Ireland and conspiracy in America.
II was his duty TO allege, and it will be his duty
10 try to prove that Mr.. Parnell and others were
accomplices in conspiracy and crime
SIR James Hannen remarked carly in the week
that the Attorney-G General entered upon the
as he thought fit, and was responsible II he made
a mistake and he declined to check him. But
as soon as evidence is offered with reference to
the proceedings Of the League the Court Will be
callcd on to rule definitely whether II Is or is not
admissible II will be scen therefore, almost at
once whether the Judges intend TO narrow the
inquiry to the acts and words Of the defendants
themselves, or whether they will allow the At
torney- General to prove his whole case.
There has been during the week certain num-
Der of other speeches and incidents relating to
Home Rule, but none Of much real significance.
Nor is anything expected TO happen beyond the

Sheridan al NonuuitL.

NEW BEDFORD, MASS, July s.-General
Sheridan, whose expected coming has been
leading theme Of conversation here for a
week past, arrived day. Colonel Michael
Sheridan, of the Generals staff, accom-
panied the party from the ship to the
shore, and was in constant attendance on bis
brother. The cottage is most tastefully
decorated. Its front windows look out
over Buzzard Bay, and it is in proximity
to several other fine summer resi-
dences. The General was placed in the
front parlor, as it is the pleasantest and
most convenient room. The cottage, al
though spacious, has Its capacity well
tested. The entire party go TO the hotel, a
short distance away, for their meals. Mrs.
Sheridan came from the cottage late in the
afternoon, evidently very happy at the
successful termination of what was re-
garded as a very hazardous experiment.
All conditions now seem to favor the Cen
erals recovery, and at no place ON the
New England coast could he be assured
greater quiet.

Houses Crushed In and Car Cut in TIVE
by Flying sections--sIx Persons In
Jured, Three Of Whom VIII Die--
Miraculous Escape Of Num-
ber of Employees.


PITTSBURGH, Pa, July GA battery Of
boilers at the tannery Of A. & J. Groet-
singer, Allegheny City, exploded this af-
ternoon, wrecking several buildings and
seriously injuring six persons, three Of
whom will probably die. The following
are the names Of the injured and their con-
dition: VIM. wetzel, engineer, leg blown
of and terribly burned; will die. Christ
Neidt, bruised and scalded; injuries be-
lieyed 10 be fatal. L. L. Farbic,
burned, bruised and scalded; death prob
able. Otto Berghnendler, bruised and
scalded; will recover. John Staab, arms,
face and body badly burned; not fatally
hurt. Annie Meyers, crushed and bruised;
very serious. The cause Of the ex-
plosion Is believed to have been
high pressure. A few minutes
after four O'Clock William Q. Wetzel, the
engineer, noticed the pressure higher than
usual, and he started for the furnace to
turn down the natural gas, Before he had
time to do so, however, there was ter
rible explosion, and Wetzel was blown up
through the roof Of the tannery and landed
in the yard outside. The conclusion was
terrific. One side Of the main building,
feet long, was blown out, and portion Of
the front wns badly wrecked. The boiler
house, fifty feet long by ~ feet wide, built
Of brick, was totally demolished, and tho
office, which was situated across the way,
was completely shattered. A heavy
double wagon was blown against
Wetzel's residence, sixty feet
away, and the side Of the house
crushed in. Pieces OF the boiler flew in
every direction. One section was carried
across the Allegheny river, distance Of
over thousand feet. Another piece struck
the Third Ward school house, twelve hum
dred feet away, and tore outon end Of the
building. A third piece struck horse and
killed IL, and fourth piece almost cut a
Grand Rapids and Indiana railroad freight
car in two that was standing ON side
track near the scene OF the accident. A
scene of the widest excitement immedi-
ately followed the explosion. Fully sixty
men were at work in the tannery, and all
who were able to do SO rushed panic -strick-
en- from the building. To add to
the horror of the situation the
building caught fire, but before tho
flames got much headway they wero
extinguished. The injured were then
taken from the wrecked structures and re-
moved to their homes. They are still liv-
ing, but very slight hopes are entertained
for the recovery of at least three Of them.
The boilers that exploded were twenty
eight feet long by forty-two inches in di-
ameter. They were made Of steel, and
have been in use six years. The damage
by the explosion will not exceed $4,000.
Engineer wetzel died at eleven o'clock to-
night and Annie Myers is not expected to
live until morning. The others are resting
easy, Mr.. Groctzinger, one of the owners Of
the tannery, says that the boilers were in
spected last year and found to be in good
II condition

Lightning and an Express Train overtaks
n Man Who Would Not Heed a Warming.


n Man Who Would Not Heed Warning.
BIRMNGHAM, Ala, July s.-Wm. Tuck
er, aged fifty-nine years, farmer, living
near Riverside, on the Georgia Pacific
railway, forty miles east Of this city, was
struck and instantly killed by lightning
yesterday afternoon about four O'Clock.
The circumstances surrounding his death,
as related by his companion, Tom Walker,
are peculiar. Tucker and Walker were
walking up the railroad toward the village
when severe thunderstorm arose. The
rain came down in torrents and lightning
flashed in terrible frequency along the rails
and wires. There was no house near at
hand where the men could seek shell
ter. Walker suggested to Tuck
er that they get off the
track and take to the woods. Tucker re-
piled no; that II the lightning was going to
strike him it would be just as apt to do so
away from the track as upon 1t. Walker
then left the track, but had hardly gone
ten steps when a fash Of lightning came.
Tucker was struck and instantly killed.
Walker was knocked unconscious, and just
as he recovered he saw the Georgia Pacific
west-bound express run over his friend,
completely severing the head from the
body. A party went out to the spotwhere
the accident occurred, examined fuckers
body, and it was found that every bone in
his body was broken.
