Tho street car mob in Viennu stoned the

Central Park reservoir in New York,
He spent the night at the Murray Hill hotel,
where he had written a number of notes to
relatives and friends, informing them OF his
intentions: I'M about the time the reservoir
employees were pulling his body out of the
water the police were sending out a general
alarm in the hope OF preventing the suicide.
Lewis was a clerk and had social ambitions
out of proportion to his salary, and it is sup

The Twin City Street Car Strike.

After O weeks tie-up, the street car COM

police on horseback, in the patrol wagons
and in the cars Thursday. In St. Paul, the
business was limited to three cars which went

six days, and were operated under O guard

PARNEIL'S RELIEF BILL.

1t Will Help Ireland Along, and Proba-
bly, Overthrow the Tories.
LONDON, March s, 1S89.-There is re-
newed talk in Liberal and Nationalist
circles about the proposed bill for the re-
lief of Ireland that Mr. Parnell is believed
to be holding ready to spring on Parlia-
ment. Very few claim to know anything
authentic about the measure, but it is
thought that it was this that
both Mr.. Gladstone and Mr.. Par
nell referred to in their recent
speeches in the House of Commons. The
more knowing of the Irish members as
sert that the bill is to be made the STUN
bling block for the Government. They
say If the Government had dared to intro
duce in the present session an Irish land
measure ParnelI would not formulate his,
but they claim that any Irish measure Will
defeat the Government
Parnell's bill is said to be built some
what on the lines of the London County
Council scheme, and insures to Ulster d
representation which serves practically as
q local home rule measure. The Oppo-
sition will vote solidly for it, and the
moderate conditions of the bill as fore
shadowed by ParnelPs moderate speech,
are expected to win enough wayering
Tories and Unionists who are disgusted
with the expose of the Times and the gov
ernment to insure its passage.
1t will thus accomplish two objects,
relief for Ireland, and the defeat of the
Tory Government. A general election
find in England q Liberal who did not be-
lieve, or Tory who did not fear that a
general election would place Gladstone

A Lively Fight With the Philadelphia
Game Lobby Is in Progress.
Especial to the Jersey CITY Nescs.l
TRENTON, March s, 18S9.-South Jersey
carried on a new war of independence in
the House today. The six counties, Cape
May, Atlantic, Gloucester, Cumberland,
Camden and Salem feel that they are
being tyrannized by Philadelphians, and
they want to be free Their oppressor is
the West Jersey Game Protection Society.
Assemblyman Cole says that of its LAO
members only twenty are residents of
Jersey; yet no one can go shooting even on
his own farm without permit from the
association.
The tyranny exercised by the associa-
ton has reused the farmers to a high pitch
of indignation. From time immemorial
the old English law allowed people to hunt
on their own land; but this cannot be
done in South Jersey without certiti-
cate from the association Assemblyman
Cole owns a large tract of land in South
Jersey; yet he cannot invite a friend to go
shooting with him without getting per-
nit from Philadelphia. South Jersey, in
fact, has been turned into a vast game
preserve for PhiladelDhians. Last year
Senator Leaning, who was then in the
Assembly. succeeded after hard work in
than fifteen years old to trap rabbits.
This year two bills to free South Jersey
from Philadelphia's grip was introduced
in the House. One revoked the charter
of the association, while the other provided
for the formation or county associations
which should protect game in the counties
concerned Although introduced early in
the session, these bills still linger, and it
is charged that the delay is due to the
manipulation of representatives of the as
sociation. Assemblyman Harris has been
on q hunt after these bills for some time,
and at last discovered them in the hands
of the engrossing clerk. Today in the
House he had adopted a resolution asking
the engrossing clerk why they had not
been engrossed.
In the afternoon he brought up the sub
iect again Tired of the delay in the
House, some South Jerseymen got Senator
Gardner, of Atlantic, to get through the
Senate bill similar to the second one de-
scribed. This passed the Senate, but has
since been becalmed in the Committee ON
Fisheries. Mr.. Harris declared that he
had been unable to get the committee to
consider the Senate bill, and he moved
that it be relieved from further action.
Mr. Schmelz, a member of the commit
tee, declared that they wanted more time
to examine it, whereupon Mr.. Cole made
a fiexy speech Mr.. Harris resolution was
adopted There will probably be u public
hearing on the bill.

to set aside the verdict. The insults Of

Mclaughlin was entirely unjustifiable.
The Court made some further remarks
condemning the action of Mclaughlin,
and then told Record that sentence would
be suspended upon payment of costs.
Turning to Mclaughlin, Judge Llppln-
