regrets to record the retirement of the
genial Sam Fifield from the frater-

is constrained to admit that he has
earned the respite from newspaper toll
that he proposes to take, and is pleased
to know that he is one of the few
lucky publishers who is able to go out

Mrs. J. d. Whitney, of this city,
has brother living in the flood swept
district of Pennsylvania, though not in
the line of the Johnstown food. Mrs.
" hitney received letter from him a
few days ago, in which he says the
general flood, outside of the main
catastrophe, is without a parallel in
the history of the state. His place has
never been considered even at ali dan
gerous in past floods, yet on this Occas-
sion he loOses everything except his
house and family His barns, out
houses, horses cattle, fences and even
the plowed ground and its growing
crops, are all gone. Little streams
which even a little child could step
across ordinarily, became great roar
ing and destroying rivers, sweeping
away everything in its course. The
letter says that the country is in de
plorable condition, the JOhnstown dis
trict being 50 much greater that the
country is as yet lost sight of.

more justice in this demand than
there is usually found in strikes. 1t
costs a good deal of money to feed a

country, and $4.00 per day is probably
about fair compensation.

sented to Mr.. Psrnell an address congrat-
ulating him upon his success in disprov-
ing before the Commissioner the many
calumnies that had Deen htaped upon

Mr.. Psrnell replied that he was sure the

ting the authority Of the Queen. but for
obtaining the realization OF their legh-
mate aspirations. He had never
doubted that the falsity of the
forged letters would ultimately be-
shown. He would rather have gone to his
grave with the stigma Of the letters upon
him than to have submitted his country 10

Mrs. Harriet Hubbard Aver Sues Her BusI-
ness Manager.
NEW YORK, May 23.-Mrs Harriet
Hubbard Aver, whose mission seems to be
TO advertise herself as a beautifier Of
women, was in court to-day, and through
her attorney asked for an injunction to re-
strain James NJ. Seymour, OF the Wall
street banking house of Seymour, Baker x
Co., from exercising any rights in the own
ership of Recamier Company stock. Her
complaint is that she owned all the prep
srations few years ago, and she borrowed
$780, from Seymour to enlarge the bust
ness, and gave him as security 49S shares
of the stock, the total number of shares at
the time being 81, 900. She also complains
that she was taken i'll last year, went
abroad for her health, and on her return
in February Seymour, with Others, tried to
rob her of her stock, destroy her reason
and place her in an insane asylum, and
finishes by saying her health has been
wrecked and her business permanently In
jured.
Seymour, in his answer, makes a general
denial, and states that Mrs. Aver got a
salary of 81, 900 month from the compa-
nv as president, and the present prosper
GUS state of the company is due to bis per
sonal effort. SeymOur's son is also in
volved in this csse, and he is, likewise,
husband of Mrs. Ayers daughter.

BE Speaks Plain Words on The Witness Stand
Sham Loyalty Scathingy Exposed -Edl-
oriak From United Ireland That
Cut to the Quick.

LONDON, May 23.-Mr Gladstone WAS
present at the session Of the Parnell Com
mission to-day. The cross-eIamination Of
Mr.. William 0'Bfien WAS continued by
Attorney General Webster. Mr.. O'Buen
delared that United Ireland, his paper,
worked according to constitutional meth
DDS and advocated nothing but peaceful
means TO attain the end sought by the
Irish Parliamentary party. He admitted
writing an article which had been printed
in Uuited ireland, in which it was stated
that Queen Victoria was only known
in Ireland by her scarcely decently dis
guised hatred OF Ireland and by her inor-
dinate salary. He also admitted having
written another article declaring that Earl
Spencer would be the last strong English
man who would attempt 10 rule Ireland
by barbarism, paid perjury and the use of
the sacred rope. He admitted the author
ship, also of an article declaring that the
chairman Of the committee selected 10 re-
ceive the Prince Of Wales on the occasion
OF his visit to Ireland, would be hunted
from public life
At this point Mr. 0'Brien became eK
cited, and vehemently exclaimed: "He
has been, and rather than TO allow English
men to be deceived by a show of sham
loyalty, am resolved to tell them the
truth
Continuing, Mr.. 0'Brien said that he
personally had spoken disrespectfully
or extensively about the Prince OF Wales
No people, he declared, ever suffered more
for loyalty than Irishmen, and none profit
ed more by their protestations Of loyalty
than the people who oppressed them. II
it was clear that England wouldn't satisfy
the aspirations of Ireland and il there was
any rational chance Of success an attempt
should be made TO rebel.
