CR0NIN'S KILLING.
A Theory That the Doctors Death is the
Result of a Political Plot.

A Theory That the Doctors Death is the
Result of a Political Plot.
CHICAGO, May s-A dispatch from New
York says the Irish nationalities there ap-
pear convinced that DIR. Cronin was assas-
sinated in Chicago. In geneneral way,
without giving the source of the informa-
ton, it Is said at meeting of Irish organ
izations in Chicago to vindicate Alexander
Sullivan against the charges by Cronin. a
resolution was offered practically sentenc-
ing Cronin and others to death, but it was
defeated. That fact became known and
a friend of Cronin advised q recourse 70
the courts, but found IL useless,
and none who knew the facts dared to tes-
tify. Stone goes on TO say that Cronin's
attacks on Sullivan in the Celtic Ameri-
into the membership OF the Clan-na-GaeI
widened the breach and may have prompt
ed some fOOlhardy friend of sullivan 20
commit the murder. John Devery, Michael
Brestin and others sent dispatch to
CTOnin in Chicago Offering 10 raise money
TO hunt down the assassins of Cronin. DIR.
VIM. Wallace, particular friend of Gro
min, believes him TO have been murdered
by individuals who anne him as a medical
practitioner for the death of some dear
one, whom be had treated, and says IL Is
not a political murder at all.
Nothing definite has been learned in the
DR.. Cronin mystery to-day. His friends
talk of Offering a reward for information
or the recovery of the body. 1t is proposed
to drag the north branch of the river to-
morrow. Mr.. Conklin, with whom the
doctor lived, still adheres TO his belief of
foul play. He will not tell to whom he
gave the private papers of CrOnin, men,
toned in these dispatches last night.

tional churches met st 1880 this morning

the principals and teachings Of Buddha,

inculcated strict morality, and forbade
killing, stealing, adultery, lying and
drunkenness, and declared charity TO be
the source of all virtue, yet reekoned ami

sad Fate of Married Woman Near sib-
ley. Iowa
SIBLEY, Ia, May S.-Mrs. Carrie Furrell
left her husband Monday morning for
visit TO her parents, two miles away. Leav-
ing there in the evening, she took shorter
course across field for the main road. BY

AGRICULTURAL COLLEGES.

The Boys for whom They Were Esab-
Iished Not the Ones Benefited.
WASHINGTON, May s.-W. o. AtwateT,
in charge of the work at the experiment
stations established by the agricultural de
partment, is preparing a bulletin, which
will be published this year, giving a sketch
of the progress of education in agricultural
colleges and schools. 1t is acknowledged
that the purpose for which agricultural col
leges were established in several states,
and to which the government contributed
by liberal grants OF land and money, has
not been realized. The colleges do not
educate men for the farms, but for the pro-
fessions, and the tendency of their teach
tngs has been TO draw young men from
farms instead of fitting for work on them.
The curriculum in most cases is too ex-
pensive for the average farmers son 10
meet The consequence is thar the class
for whom the colleges were designed have
received almost absolutely no benefit from
their existence. In connection with the
state university of Minnesota an agricul-
tural school was opened last fall, the
course of study comprising two
years of twenty-fOur weeks each. Gradu-
ates of the common district schools of the
state are qualified to enter and they are
taught the practical things of farm life in
addition TO the literary branches of learn
ing. The school had been opened but a
few weeks when its accommodations were
all taken, while the agricultural college
proper had been struggl ng along for years
with barely enough students TO form a sin
gle class At the Indian and colored
schools, at Hampton, Va. supported by
the government, a course of agricultural in
sIruction is pursued and nearly one hun
dred pupils are engaged in it. Experiment
stations of the department are located ut

ligiOn. In his speeches in New York wit

Organizing Rebellion in Ireland Through

sweTved hairsbreadth from that deelar-
alton.
The witness said he firmly believed that
none OF his colleagues since joining the
irish parliamentary party had had any
tnlng 70 do with the Fenians. Referring
20 some letters of his, Parnell said he had
copies made from his secretary's short hand
notes. At this point Attorney General
webster said: cit seems there exists a

like to see that book"
Sir Charles Russell-By all means

Attorney General Webster. recurring to
the examination of Parnelrs private bank
account, wanted 10 trace a number OF
cneckss and a warm diScuss.o1 ensued. Sir
Charles declaring such action would be
unfair. Justice Hannen suggested post
ponement Of the inquiry into this matter
until further documents were before the
court
Archbishop Walsh then took the stand
he testified he came to the conclusion be
fore 1879 that there was need Of a defensive

give his opinion for the necessity of such
an organization when Justice HanDen in
serpOsed, saying the inquiry must be lin
tied 10 whether or not the land league was
necessary Biggar urged that opinions as
evidence had been given over and over
again by "hirelings of the government"
Justice Hannen warned Biggar that he
must not make use of such expressions.
BiRgar then said that unless such evil
dence was admitted. the whole inquiry
would end in farce. The archbishop con
tlnUiDg said that in the course of his visits
through his diocese he had abundant
means Of knowing that the league de-
nounced Outrages. Many priests had

The Golden Gate special, between Omaha

road will run its FIRST trip on the 18th inst.
Speaking OF the abandonment of the special
Col. C. +. Croker, OF San Francisco, said ::
"We have given the Golden Gate special
fair trial. ] am well aware that the Penn
sylvanis limited trains had TO be- run six
months before their success could be de-
mOnstrated. Then il was found that these
fast trains were a success, but the rule will
not apply 10 California We have adver-
tised the Golden Gate special, both here and
ia the east There has always been enough
eastoOund travel TO sustain the special, but
the WestbOund has been too slack. 1 think
its existence is sufficiently well known In
the east People took the Golden Gate
special at this end OF the route because IL
was attractive and close at hand, but when
one started from New Yrrk he had to cal
cuiate how many days il would take him 70
get 70 the Golden Gate special terminus In
time. People could see the train at this
end, but AZ the other end they had TO go il
blind They did not know what 20 expect,
and were consequently lOath TO put out ex-
ira dollars for train conVeniences, which
they knew nothing about The train hay-
Ing proved itself financially premature for
California. it will he removed as soon as
arrangements can be made with the east

running one fast train a week in addition

run two overland trains daily"
