Roughly Handled.


CHICAGO, November 23d.-The memory
of the Manchester Martyrs was honored in
appropriate Irish style at Battery d to-
night. Just before the meeting began two
constables attempted, by writ of replevin,
to take from the platform the flag which
had been presented to Captain O'Connor.
Matthew Conoran, white with passion,
declared the flag could be taken only over
his dead body. The constables retired and
did not return.
Father Tweemy made a speech full of
fire. After lsuding Allen, Larken and
O'Brien, he shouted, 81 charge Patrick
Egan, charge Alexander Sullivan with
betraying Parnell in his confidence. The
men betrayed their trusts, sold their coun-
try for money and politics. charge that
if it had not been for the betrayal of Par
nell by Egan and Alexander Sullivan, and
the robbery of the Irish funds by these
persons, there would have been no Cronin
murder in Chicago" He repeated the ac-
cusations, and declared himself always
ready to answer for what he said.
The widest excitement reigned, and the
vast audience was electrified. He referred
to the conversation he had with Cronin
when the latter gave detailed account of
the robbery of the Irish funds, which the
speaker was willing to give to the world if
necessary.
Frank Sullivan, the Chairman. in his
speech declared that Cronin was murdered
by the fratricidal hand of those protesting
to be Irishmen.
Lengthy resolutions were adopted charg-
ing the triangle specifically with the
shame, ruin and disaster which the muir
der of DIR. Cronin has entailed upon the
Irish race and cause, with treachery, baser
and blacker still, to their wretched dupes
who blanch and tremble before the awful
majesty of justice in the Criminal Court of
Cook comfy, who are charged with the
murder of DR.. Cronin.
They charge the triangle with betraying
those wretched men into the belief that
Cronin, the noble Irishman. was British
spy, and with persuading them that it was
a duty they owed to Ireland to stain their
hands in his blood.

SEVERN and His ChiIdren-A Bid for
Sullivan and jackson.
SEATTLE (Wssh.), November 23d.-The
sequel to the story of August Severins ten
years search for his children is sad one.
He found his son Gussie in Seattle after q
long search.
The Probate Court awarded the custody
of the boy to SEVERN. As the boy seemed
loath to 90 Judge Osborn told him it was
his duty to go, and that it was the best
thing for him. SEVERN started for the
train, but the boy chung to post in front
of the Courthouse, drew a knife and de-
clared he would kill himself rather than
leave Wallace. The boy soon after ran
away from his father, who is broken down
over the action of his son.
Mr.. SEVERN said he would 60 to San
Francisco and secure his daughter Virginia,
who is with Edward Fontenau and wife,
variety people there. He would take the
daughter East to his sister in Philadelphia,
and as the boy, Gussie, thinks good deal
of mis- sister, he thinks he can induce him
to come SEVERN says the boy must be
educated at all hazards. The father left for
San Francisco to-day. Gussie was seen by
reporter, and says the reason he did not
go with his father was that when his
mother was alive she told him to have
nothing to do with him, and that he was a
bad man. Mrs. Wallace, with whom he
now lives, told him his father wanted to
get him SO he could beat and abuse him.
Senator Squire and wife left for the East
to-day. They accepted an invitation of
President Mcdonald, of the Seattle and
Lake Shore Eastern Railroad, to travel in
his private car as far as Chicago.
Several capitalists talk of raising purse
of $25, 600 for Sullivan and Jackson to fight
for in this city. If the measure is success
full building capable of holding 5000 peo-
pie will be erected specially for the fight.

The Head of the Mormon Church Thinks
His Prosecuted Sect.
CHICAGO, November 23d-In response to
a telegram from the Associated Press ask
ing a statement concerning the present
investigation in Salt Lake City, President
Woodruff of the Mormon Church sends q
dispatch, in which he says:
This is the periodical Mormon sensa-
ton which we are accustomed 10 expecting
in November. Congress meets in Decem-
Der, and il is presumed the usual efforts
will be made TO secure legislation against
the Mormons. In addition we are on the
eve of an important municipal election
here, which the anti Mormons hope to
carry by preventing the naturalization OF
Mormons.
"There is absolutely nothing in the Nor
mon religion that interferes with patriotic
devotion to the Government OF the United
States.
"The revelations and commandments OF
the church require the Constitution and the
laws of the land to be upheld, and 1t also is
a part of our belief that the time will come
when the country will be distracted and
general lawless prevail. Then the Mormon
people will step forward and take an active
part in rescuing the nation from ruin. In
regard to the claim that the priesthood Of
the chief authorities of the church assert
the right to control the Mormon people in
all temporal matters, including political
affairs, | would say that l am the head OF
the church and l do not make any such
claim. 1t would be impossible to exercise
it if did.
The charge of undue interference in
elections is absurd. The balloting is
strictly secret, and all the management Of
elections in the smallest details is in the
hands of United States Government ap.
pointees.
THAT the Mormons are united politically
is largely due to their being constantly and
yindictiveiy assailed by small minorities
who seek to control the majority.
ga good deal is being made OF the form OF
the party, based upon TWO verses in the 9Th
chapter of Revelations of St. John in the
New Testament. 1t relates TO the praying
that God might avenge the blood of the
prophet, and an attempt has been made to
connect this with the avenging of the
death of Joseph and Hiram Smith. 1t can
have no such application. The endow-
ment was given long before the death of
Joseph and Hiram Smith, and has not
been changed. These men were murdered
by local mob in disguise.
Concerning the cry about blood atone
ment there is this foundation: Our re-
ligious faith is a belief 10 the atoning blood
of Christ. We believe in the Scripture
doctrine, Whose sheds mans blood, by
man shall his blood be she'd But we
also believe that all executions for murder
shall be under the laws of the land and by
its officers only.
THE statement of the apostate wit
nesses, that the endowment ceremonies in
volve the death penalty upon those who
leave the church and disobey the priest
hood, are simply untrue. The Mormons
on the stand have right to decline to dis
close the innocent formula of the endow
ment, Just as Masons have right to refuse
to disclose the Masonic rituals"

CONTRACTORS RESPONSIBILITY.
On the night of the Goth of January, 1887,
asRobert Barton was walking along East
street he fell into hole left unguarded by
Contractor Mcdonald, who was engaged in
renlanking the street. Barton brought

The decision was rendered by Commits
