DUBLIN, Dec. 30.-Parnell has written
a letter to the Freeman's Jounalin which
he says he received no notice of having
been made correspondent in the suit
brought by Captain O'Shea against his
wife tor divorce. Parnell also says that

there when O'Shea was absent, but the
latter was cognizant of his being there.
he declares Houston, secretary OF the
Loyal and Patriotic Union. instigated
O'Shea to institute proceedings for d.
vorce in order to diminish the damages
which may be awarded Parnell in his
libel suit against the Times.

here this morning from Pierre state that
half breeds did not shoot to kill in the
affair at Bad River with the settlers. The
ownership of 200 acres south of the bar
In the river over which trouble was re-
ported had been in controversy for some
time. The citizens of Pierre and new
corners have insisted that they had as
much right to the reservation opposite
Pierre as had the half breeds and real es-
tate dealers The matter eliminated by
about fifty men crossing the river with
twenty loads of lumber and taking pos
session of the unplatted portion of the
of the land. Shots were fired by the
hall breeds in the air for the purpose of
Intimating the settlers, but not a person
was hurt.

Obiect to the New RnIos.

JERSEY Cry. Dec. 3O.-Ths grand
grievance convention of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers held a confer.
ence. to-day in this city with the COM
mittees from the Brotherhoods of Loco
connective Firemen and Brakeman. The
object Of the conference was to try and
convince the Erie officials hat they were
wrong In susDending four engineers who
had refused to subscribe to the new laws
established by the Erie. The new law
requires all trainmen to waive
tor from the company in case of ACCT
dent and require freight engineers and
brakemen to become responsible for
damage to freight and railway property
In case OF accident and requires engineers
to go through a civil service examination.
The committee will recommend to the
general committee that the engineers be
reinstated and the new rules be abolished.
1T these recommendations are not adopted
a strike on the whole Erie system will
probably occur.

SNOW AND RAIN.
Queer Electrical Disturbances
Witnessed in Dakota.
Duluth Revealing in Six Feet
of Snow.
Jackson Ready to Fight Bos-
tons Big Bruiser.
A Dakota Blizzard.

ST. PAUL. Dec. 30.-Advices here
seem to indicate that the great snow
storm of Saturday extended over,a large
area. Rumors were rife in the newspaper
offices that many wires west of here were
down n travel delayed. The center of
the disturbance appears to be at Huron
where the wind veered to the north and
the storm increased until it became a YER
liable blizzard, blowing fifty miles an
hour. The memorable experiences of
two years ago prevented the people from
unduly exposing themselves on the pra-
RES and no bad results are anticipated.
The storm has been marked in places By
a singular phenomenon. At Winona
rain descended in great sheets and the
whole city is flooded.
When the rain stopped the mercury
fell rapidly to 30o in three hours. The
people can skate to business this morning.
AT other points electrical disturbances
preceded the fall of snow. Duluth was
visited with a severe blizzard ushering in
the heaviest snow fall of the season.
Much damage has been done in the city
and the street cars are ~blockaded. Trains
are delayed by drifts six feet deep in
many places.

COLUMBIA. s. c.. Dec. 30.-The coro
nd ; inquest into the death of the eight
negroes lynched at Bsrnwell was held
Saturday night at the scene Of the tragedy.
1t was a terrible sight which the iurymen
looked upon. On the left side of the
road were the bodies of Ripley johnson
and Mitchell Adams. charged with the
murder Of Heffernan. On the opposite
side were the SIX bodies of the negroes
charged with implication in the murder of
young Robert Martin. They were tied to
trees to the roadside backs to the sap
hps). a rope was passed around the tree
and around the body of the men. When
shot, the weight Of their bodies had
swung down on the ropes and they occu-
pied all sorts of grotesque and revolving
positions. The frightful character OF the
wounds shown by the testimony of the
physicians at the inquest is in brief as
follows: Henry Bury, ten balls in body,
age "a; Peter Bell, one ball in back
of neck at base of skull, aged 60;
Harrison johnson, four balls in his body,
age 35; Rafe Morrall, six balls in head
and body, either of which would have
been fatal. aged 60; Judge Jones. eight
paiios Ouo III UTAH., aKeu 70, IlODert L noe
nix, four balls in body. aged %; Ripley
Johnson, eight balls in body. aged 80;
Mitchell Adams, five balls, one through
brain. aged 35. On this testimony the
jury returned a verdict that the eight men
CANT to their deaths from gunshot wounds
inflicted by some party or parties I'M
known. After the inquest negroes we're
notified that they might remove the bodies
if they desired. The families Of Ripley
johnson and Mitchell Davis removed
their bodies to their homes, but the other
Blk remained treated as murderers and
outcasts and there were none to mourr
for them. Neither the whites nor negroes
wanted to remove the bodies. The town
declines to bury them because they were
killed outside of las limits. but offers to
furnish collins if the negroes will bury
them. The remaining negroes declare
they propose to pull up aud leave the
country. They assert there will be no
retaliation.
