Another Fire at Moreland

CHICAGO, May 9.-This morning a call for
fire engines was received from the outlying
town Of Moreland, which suffered SO dsas-
trously from fire yesterday 1t was said that
the flames had broken out again. An engine
was at once sent. but it was found to be I'M
necessary. as the inhabitants had succeeded in
subduing the flames before much damage had
been done: II appears that the fire this morn
ing was the work Of an incendiary, and the
exasperated inhabitants threatened to lynch
the Perpetrator if they succeed in catching
him

Curious Case of Mistaken Identify.

Ernest A. Nauck made wholesale denial in
the Police Court this morning when Police
man Helair charged him with using profane
language on 10th street northwest, but the
policeman was sure that the defendant was
the man, because" said the officer, ''he was
arrested few days ago for having some trouble
with his wife. Nauck denied that he had a
wife, and the policeman was equally certain
that he had.
Il am on my OATH" said Nauck. '!and so help
me God am not married, and never intend
to be-" He also denied that he was arrested
few days ago, and then told the Judge that it
was case of mistaken identity. His twin
brother, he said, was probably the cause of his
trouble.
The judge gave Mr.. Nauck the benefit Of the
doubt, and took his personal bonds The rec
ords show that it was not Ernest Nauck who
was arrested the other day.

THE VISITING INDIANS.
Astonished at the Stars Printing Presses
and a Passenger Elevator.

The band of Ogallala Sioux Indians belong
ing to Forepaugh's show spent the forenoon in
visiting the various points of interest about the
city, riding from place to place in and on the
old overland coach. They visited The STAR
Office, and were very much interested in the
complicated working of the wonderfully
equipped establishment. The lightning presses
filed them with astonishment and awe. They
afterward visited the Atlantic building to call
on Indian Commissioner Oberly, but that
official was in New York. The Indians were
taken up to the seventh floor of the building to
the assistant commissioners Office in the
elevators. 1t was their first experience in that
KIND OF locomotion, ana they were greatly
astonished. They at first refused to enter the
car, but after some persuasion consented, and
OF wonder and curiosity They were presented
TO Assistant Commissioner Belt by Major Frank
d. Yates and Capt. Geo. J. Jarchon, the agent
appointed by Commissioner Oberly to take
charge OF them. Later they visited the capitol
White House and Treasury department Lone

Sheets. Scarce Hawk, Eagle Head, Red Star,

Chief Of the Bureau Of Engraving, Etc.
The cabinet, at its last meeting, discussed the
advisability of appointing Capt. Meredith as
chief OF the bureau of engraving and printing,
1t having previously been decided to make MI.
Palmer public printer. Some of the members
held that 1T did not seem fair to give Chicago
such number Of frst-class appointments. II
was enough, the argument ran, to have lincoln
as minister to England, Enander as minister to
Denmark, and Palmer public printer without
giving another big prize to Capt Meredith
The discussion brought forth the fact that Mr..
Enander will not go to Denmark; that he will
resign at once, ill-health being the reason as
signed therefor. The announcement was made
Capt. Merediths appointment 60 through at
once. II Mr.. Enander's health improves the
administration will find some suitable place for
him, but Is things are at present his health
would not permit him to leave this country.

He Speaks of the Influence Of the
National League.

LONDON. May 9.-Archbishop Walsh resumed
his testimony to-day before the Parnell COM
mission. He said that facts which had come to
his knowledge proved that the influence of the
national league tended to diminish crime in
Ireland. The decadence of secret societies
had been gradual since 1866. The witness was
aware that the league had advised tenants not
TO enter their complaints in the land court after
the parliamentary act of 1881 was passed Sub
sequent events justified this advice. The wit
ness said he knew Of only one instance in
which the league was indiscreet-that was
when one of the branches of the league passed
resolution deciding to publish a list of all
persons in that district who were not members
OF the league. The witness protested against
such an action and
THE PLAN WAS ABANDONED.
AS the league spread" related the arch
bishop, secret societies vanished and the
people learned to prefer open action and dis
liked and distrusted secret bodies and move
ments."
Throughout the witness diocese cases of boy
cotting were few. and anything like intimida-
ton was considered reprehensible. The mem
beers OF the league held that boycotting kept
the country free from outrages. The witness
did not approve the refusal to sell the neces-
sarles OF life to a man un1er boycott He I'M
derstood the plan of campaign 10 be purely
voluntary combining on the part of tenants.
1t nd not imply boycotting. Reference being
made to Archbishop Walsh's pastoral published
In 1882, in which he denounced the non-pay-
ment of debts and forcible resistance to law
the archbishop explained that the issuance of
the pastoral was owing to the increase of secret
societies which temporarily hourished because
the league was partly disorganized. owing to
the Imprisonment of its leaders. and while the
people were driven to despair by cruel evic-
tlOns.

HER TEARS SAVED HER HUSBAND.
A Scene of Lamentation In Justice Still
sings Court.

A Scene of ~LamentatiOn In Justice Still
sings Court.
On Thursday a woe begone looking
m came to Justice Stilsing, and say
ing that she was Mary Egan, of Sixteenth
street, told her tale Of woe, which en-
braced a detailed account of q beating she
had received at the hands of her husband,
Michael Egan.
The Justice was so moved by her story
that he directed Clerk Norton to prepare
a warrant, which the efficient clerk did as
quickly as possible and the document was
speedily executed by Policeman Clark.
When the prisoner was arraigned before
Justice Stilsing this morning the woman
refused to make a complaint.
Under all the circumstances this
seemed a little strange, and the Justice
AS he disappeared into the pen Mrs.
Eagan collapsed into O dead faint and
slid out of the chair.
Court Officer Bob Pierson and Clerk
Norton, the former with a large fan and
the latter with q glass of water, fastened
to the rescue. After a few minutes hard
work they revived her and placed her in a
chair. She was nc ms seated than she
vent OFF into an hysterical fit OF weep
ing.
This was more than the Justice could
stand, and, as a experiment, he ordered
Eagan to be taken from the pen and
seated beside his wife. This caused the
woman to cease her lamentations in q
small degree, and as a last resort the JUS
tice told her to go home and take her hus-
band with her. Immediately she bright
ened up, and with wonderful a~lacrity
conducted her husband from the room.
