Onial company, at a meeting to-day
resolved to appeal to Prince Bismarck,

Some Striking Pageants.

LONDON, Aug. 17.-W. G. Willis
play, "Josephine," to be brought out by
Agnes Hawthorne in the autumn, will
contain some striking pageants. One of
the most effective scenes will be that of
a battle, in which a memorable charge
of cavalry will be represented. The mill
tary career of Bonaparte is generally to
provide illustration. The dramatist has
also finished his work on a play for Miss
Isabella Bateman, founded on the ro-
nance of "ClariSSa HarlOwe."

Mrs. Yapp Is Inclined to Lie
Without Provocation.
NEW YORK, Aug. 17.-Mr. Macklin,
of Roe & Macklin, the American law
vers acting in the interest of Mrs. May
brick, the condemned woman in Eng
land, have received the following let
ter:
Providence. r. l., Aug. 16, 1889. 9.-Messrs.
Roe & Macklin-Gentlemen: Noticing from
the morning papers that Mrs. Yapp was
one of the principal witnesses against Mrs.
Maybrick on her trial, 1 deem it my duty to
suggest that ii she is the same person who
testified in the case of Melvin vs.. Kate Wheel
er in June, 1885, that she is a person un-
worthy of belief. She was then thirtyzfve
years of age, The wife of Thomas Yapp, then
in the employ of the Grand Trunk railroad in
Montreal Her maiden name was Margaret
Elenor Wainwright. She undertook the part
of a female detective, and made a most mis-
cradle failure of it. If Mrs. Maybrick was
convicted by the evidence of witnesses such
as Mrs. Yapp, 1t is a Fmonstrous outrage upon
the principles of justice, and she ought to be
entitled to new trial. I was one of the
counsel for Mrs. Smith. and prepared her de-
tense. Youwin pardon the liberty / take in
;writing you. Yours truly,
FRANK S. ARNOLD.
Mr.. Maeklin cabled the contents of
the above letter to Mrs. Maybriek's
English LAWYERS

and speaking in loud, clear and steady

voice, SAID:
Your honor, desire to make a few re-
marks. l can only ask for your clemency i'll
this matter. No doubt l have done some
thing wrong, but, as my counsel told you,
was ignorant of the law ! am not as orator
ical as the distinguished district attorney on
my right, or my counsel, who have addressed
you, and therefore beg to remark that am
your humble servant, John L. Sullivan.
Sullivan sat down and looked at the
court, waiting his doom. There was
another pause. The silence was so
deep that an occasional whisper was
heard as distinctly as an uproar in the
dead of night. Judge Terrell, after a
moment or two, asked for the petition
printed by Gen. Ford. 1t was an ap-
peal for mercy, and the fact that the
court asked for it was construed as
good omen. After few minutes in
Spection he folded the paper carefully,
laid it on the table, and shaded his eyes
with his hands, and his brow wrinkled
as if meditating deeply. Every eye
was fixed upon him; even Sullivan
leaned forward and watched the judge
anxiously. He broke the silence by
saying in his quiet way, ''Stand up,
Sullivan" The court did not say 'Mr.
Sullivan" this time. Sullivan stood up
quickly. He threw out his chest.
looked the court 1ull III Cne lace, anu
had evidently determined upon perfect
self control. Judge Terrell spoke
slowly.
Gentlemen, passing sentence has always
been of considerable trouble and concern to
me, even in small cases, except where the
law has one absolute punishment. It seems
to me that this prize fight at Richburg, OF
which you stand convicted. was a gross af-
front to the laws of the state, where the au-
thorities personally forbade it. 1t seems to
have been accomplished with systematic ar,
rangement and in the presence of invited
thousands 1t seems on the part of all con-
nected in it to have been studied disregard
and contempt for the law. They came, from
and through many states whose authority
and civilization deferred them from any at
tempt at such public lawless conduct within
their limits, and they chose the state of Mis-
sissippi as the only hit ground for such com
bat indicating their utter copemPt for bee fne
statutes,

The North Dakota Convention
Adjourns Sine Die.

BISMARCK, N. D.. Aug. 1.-THE
North Dakota constitutional convention

BISMARCK, N. D., Aug. 17.-Much to
the surprise of many, johnson, of Da-
kota, attempted to have the report of
the committee to which was referred
the kilograms of protest on the public
institution question read in the cOnyen-
tion to-day. As the article was adopted
yesterday, and as the report could have
no effect, his report was laid on the
table. The first nail in the coffin of
the defeated cause from Grand Forks
was driven this morning in the shape
of a telegram signed by George b.
WinShip announcing that the young
Republican club of that city had passed
resolutions of censure on the convention
for passing the public Institution article,
and had decided to do all in its power to
afternoon was passed in considering the
section providing system of railroad
taxation. The convention previously
adopted the section providing that all
property shall be taxed alike. To-day
the advocates of the gross earn
ings system, which is favored
by the railroads, carried a
motion to reconsider the section, and
after one of the bitterest fights of the
session they succeeded in SO amending
that the legislature may provide for
gross earnings tax on all property used
exclusively in the operation of the road.
Wallace of Steele, who was opposed to
the amendment, endeavored to talk
against time, but weakened after hold
ing the floor for an hour. Inasmuch as
the signers of the report opposing the
location of the public institutions in
sisted on having their report considered
to-day, the
So-CALLED MINORITY REPORT
of the committee favOrin & such action
as was taken yesterday was read and
adopted by large majority. This re-
port advocated the location of the capl-
tai and other public institutions, on the
ground that it removed jobbery and
corruption from the legislature, saved
great expense to the people who have
already a capital property valued at
over 100000 at Bismarck, and by divert
ing the question from the politics of the
state, aided in bringing about tranquil
ity and good will among the citizens Of
the state. Tonight the members of the
convention are being banqueted by

CANNOT BE CORNERED.
The Diamond Market Is Too Big
to Be Handled.

New YORK, Aug. 17'-The rumOr of
corner in diamonds, reported from
London, was generally discredited
among the leading jewelers. to-day.
One of the most prominent merchants
said that it was impossible to make a
corner, as the capitalists owned only
the big diamond mines, while the small
er mines, producing equally as good
stones, would sell at a fair price and
force the big concerns onto the market.
The slight increase is attributed to the
fact that nearly all the fine gems have
been sent to the Paris exposition.
