Success of Co-operation.

LONDON, August 17th.-An exhibition of
cooperative products is thrown open at
the Crystal Palace. The high standard of
excellence attained in the work exhibited
ought not to be surprising, even if it is I'M
derstood that only the best artisans and
most intelligent can take part in these CO.
operative movements; but that no less than
sixteen hundred separate establishments
organized on this principle should be cred
itably represented must be startling to
those who have been speaking of co.opera-
ton as still an experiment. These estab-
llshments, some of them very extensive
and employing capital TO the amount of
many thousands of pounds, are engaged in
nearly two hundred individual enterprises.
4 festival of labor will be held in connec-
ton with the exhibition, ct which $500
will be distributed in prizes to workmen.
Another feature will be concert by 5000
voices.

PARIS, August 17th.-The Partisan popu-
lace worked itself up over the meeting of
William and Francis Joseph 10 such
pitch that everybody was ready to shoulder
arms when the rumor gained currency
that the two Emperors were about to visit
Alsace together. Spulier the French Min
lister of Foreign Affairs lost his head for a
moment and in hot haste drove TO the
German Embassy where his fears we're
soon quieted with the assurance that there
was no foundation for the story.

LOWELL (Mass.), August 17th.-General
Benjamin L. Butler, when questioned by a
reporter to-day, denied that he had been
retained as prosecuting attorney against
Justice Field and Deputy Marshal Nagle.
General Butler says he could not be re-
tanned in the case as he would not act as
prosecuting officer against Judge Field
II do not think the law of the case has
been clearly stated in the newspapers, D
said the General. IF a man is attacked
and is in danger of his life, he is obliged to
go to the wall before he can take the life of
his assailant. 1t is different in the case of
an officer sent to protect the Justice of a
Court. 1t is left in his judgment to strike
when be fears that the lie of the Judge is
in danger from his assailant.'

HELENA On. t., August 18th Word
has just been received from Phillipsburg
saying that a mounted messenger had ar.
rived there this morning from Georgetown
calling for aid to keep the forest fires from
burning the town. The fire has surrounded
the town and all the Georgetown flat is
burning. The strong wind OF oday has
also brought the fire to within six miles of
Phillipsburg, and some alarm is expert
enced as to the safety of the Bimetallic
Mill, as the fire is travelling toward it with
great rapidity. A large mounted force left
here LAST evening at o'clock for the scene,
and it is hoped that they will be able to
check the fire SO as to save Georgetown,
and such buildings as may lie in its track.

Grapes are very heavy crop, where the
vineyards are healthy and well cultivated,
but the low prices of wine and grapes, and
the difficulty of finding sale at all, have
caused many growers to neglect their vine

of the vineyards. The phylloxera is max

red wine grapes. Others have grated them
with raisin varieties, and all this will have
a great influence on the wine crop, making
it much lighter than last year.

NOT CONNECTED WITH CRIME.
Sir Charles Russell Defends the Irish
National League.

LONDON, April 10.-ln mis- speech before
the Parnell commission today Sir Charles
Russell recounted the story of enforced
Irish immigration to America, on the
growth of Fenianism in that country and
of its development into movement to
obtain justice for Ireland by means OF
legal agitation. He said it was the justi-
fable boast of Parnell and Davitt that
they had taught Irish Americans to COM
bine and assist them in their efforts within
the law. He traced the history of the
national league in America, and declared
that it proves conclusively that organize
ton was in no way implicated in crime.
The national league, he said,
had sbeen founded to maintain
the right of the Irish people
to make in their own national assembly
laws relating to Ireland. This was not a
novel claim. There wac no period in the
history of Ireland in which the people of
the Irish race in that greater Ireland be-
yond the sea were not willing to accept the
natural right of self government and live
In amity with the rest of the empire He
declared that Mr.. Parnell had never been
associated with a secret society, had never
seen Patrick Ford, and had never been
implicated, directly or indirectly, with any
conspiracy whatever. Mr.. Davitt, although
a friend Of Ford's. had repeatedly remon-
strated against the adoption of violence,
and had never failed to denounce outrages
and the melting of the people to commit
such crimes

RACE DISCRIMINATION.
Hearing of the Georgia Railway Case by
the Interstate Commission.

WASHINGTON, April 10.-The interstate
commerce commission today heard the
case of William II. Heard VS.. the Geo. gia
Railroad company. The petitioner COM
plains that in travelling over defendants
road from Augusta to Atlanta he was
compelled to accept second-class accomo-
dations in that he was obliged to occupy
a compartment car, although he had
ticket allowing him first-clasS accomo-
dations The complainant in his petition
prays that whole cars be furnished for the
use of colored people on defendants road,
the same as are furnished to white people,
or that the smokers car be located in some
portion of the train other than in the COM
partment car which cOlored travellers are
required to occupy.
Dispositions concerning disposition of
accommodations on the road were read by
counsel on both sides. Mr.. j. w. Crowell,
counsel for the complainant, then began
his argument. He did not desire to argue
the case at length, he said, inasmuch as
the facts in the case were practically the
same as those in previous complaint
lodged by complainant against defendant
and at which time the commission issued
an order requiring the company to cease
and desist from subjecting colored passen-
gers to unreasonable prejudice and disad-
vantage regarding accommodations.
Counsel, however, desired to say that the
sixteenth section of the interstate COM
mission act had not been understood or
had been disregarded by the
company. This section provides that
whenever any common carrier subject to
provision of the act shall violate or refuse
or neglect to obey or perform any lawful,
order or requirement of the interstate
commerce commission, it shall be lawful
for the commission or for any company or
person interested in such order or require
ment to apply by petition to the circuit
court alleging such violation and dlSobed-
fence and the court shall have power to
hear and determine the matter, etc.
Before proceeding to answer the argu-
ment, Mr.. S. 3. Cummin, as counsel for
the railroad company, called as witness
William Martin, who testified to the ample
Accommodations on the Georgia road for
white and colored passengers except be-
tween Augusta and local points on the
line where the cars were frequently
crowded, but where white and colored
passengers Jared alike.
Mr.. Cummin then took up in detail the
charges made by complainant and denied
that there was an attempt at discrimina-
ton. The use Of the compartment car
upon which complainant was obliged to
to ride was a question of economy with the
company. The half car is sufficient for the
amount of travel The books of the COM
pany showed the amount of space furn-
ished for colored people was in excess of
that furnished for white people. 1t was
not race question and there was no in
dignity or slight to the colored people in
furnishing them half cars.
After further argument the commission
took the case under advisement

STABBED BY BURGLARS.
Two Chicago Grocers Severely Injured
While Attacking Thieves.

CHICAGO, April 1O.-Theodore and Jacob
Huebler, brothers, engaged in business at
1S4S Maxwell street, were seriously stabbed
last night in a desperate encounter with
burglars. Looking across the street from
their store they saw three men trying to
pry open the money drawer in Mayors
bakery. No one was in the room but the
burglars. The grocers, who are courage
GUS and powerful men, rushed in and
grappled with two OF the intruders.
Grasping a chair, one of the burglars with
stunning blow foored Jacob Huebler.
His brother had knocked down his man
and grappled with the third one. The
PROSTATE brother recovered, and after a
fierce struggle, the three burglars were
knocked down Reaching their feet two
of the thieves whipped out knives, and
murderously slashed at the brothers. Ter
ribly cut on the arm and shoulder, the
older fell to the floor, and the three
robbers then turned their at
tention to Jacob. He parted their
thrusts, receiving severe cuts on the hands
and arms. He finally braced his back
against the wall and with blow straight
from the shoulder sent one OF his assail-
ants against the counter. Before Huebler
could recover his guard one of the men
slashed him on the thigh and arm and he
fell down nearly unconscious from the loss
of blood. Yelling like Indians the three
desperadoes, brandishing their bloody
knives, dashed through the crowd of peo-
pie attracted by the noise Of the ARRAY.
The crowd of fifty men and boys parted
and the ruffians ran down the street and
escaped. The wounded grocers were car
ried to their homes and their injuries at
tended to. They are weak from loss of
blood, but will recover. The burglars
have not been apprehended.

FIRED ON BY A STRANGER,
The American Schooner "Buckne" At
tackled in the West Indies,

NEW YORK, April 10-Captain Stubs,
of the schooner Carrie A. Buckner. which
arrived today from St. Domingo City, re-
ports that on March 81, when off Saoni
Island. at about noon he sighted vessel
steaming toward his vessel from the land,
then distant six or eight miles. The craft
proved to be Dominican war vessel. She
laid her course to intercept the Buckner,
but could not do so owing to the strong
breeze then prevailing and fell astern half
or three quarters of mile. When nearly
in the schooner's wake, much to the sur
prise of the crew, she fired shot which
struck the water only few yards from
the Buckners stern. She then gave chase,
but with good strong breeze the schooner
soon distanced her. After keeping up the
chase for about two hours she gave it up,
and putting about steamed for the land.
masted steamer of about 500 tons burthen,
apparently of French or Spanish build,
Her decks were crowded with men. What
her errand was can only be conjectured, as
TIM Buckner was far outside of Spanish
jurisdiction and on the high seas where
they could have no legitimate right to
overhaul her. The American flag was fly
ing at the schooner's peak all the time, it
having been hoisted as the steamer was
made out to be war vessel.
Captain Stubs says nothing was heard
by the Buckner's crew of this vessel or of
the rebellion at ST. Domingo City. The
better class of people there hesitate to
speak their minds even to foreigners.
They are no doubt afraid of compromising
themselves.
