Mr.. Balfour Arouses the Wrath OF the Par
neIIites and Is Accused Of Lying.
LONDON, June 16.-In the House of Com
mons tonight. Mr.. Balfour, replying to Mr..
Dillon, denied that the police had charged
upon and dubbed the people at New Tippe-
rary for lighting bonfires to celebrate the
marriage of VIM. O'Briep. The police, he
said, had put out the bonfires because they
formed an obstruction In the streets.
Messrs Gill and Clancy, Nationalists,
questioned Mr. Balfour regarding the gov
ernment's system of ''shadowing" persons
in Ireland. They wanted to know how
this "shadowing" could prevent boycott
ting.
Mr. Balfour replied that no one was
"shadowed" unless he was known to be en-
gagged in intimidation. The government
would promise to reduce the system only on
the condition that the Parnellites promised
to induce the persons shadowed 20 ab-
stain from intimidation. lCheers from the
government members
Mr.. Dillon-If, after this brutal. abom-
Unable outrage. there is blood shed, 1t will
be upon your head.
Mr.. Parnell asked Mr.. Balfour TO ADOPT
the English presumption that every per-
son accused is innocent until proved to be
guilty. [Cheers.
Mr. Balfour-Will Mr.. Parnell under-
take that these people shall not repeat

This question brought out loud Parnell-
ite cries of What crime" Amid tre-
mendous uproar on the part of the Parnell-
ties Mr.. Dillon began an excited speech.
He denounced Mr.. BalfOur, and demanded
an apology for the use of the word "Crime.n
A stormy scene ensued, in which Mr. Gill
accused Mr.. Balfour of lying. and Mr. Glad
stone challenged him to prove his assertion
that the Liberals resorted to the practice
of 'shadowing."
Mr.. Baltour substituted the words "In-
timidation and boycotting" for Crime"
Finally the Speaker appealed to the House,
and the matter was dropped.
Mr.. Balfour informed deputation to-
day that it would be impossible to pass the
land-purchase bill this session.

Ten.Round Draw,

LOUISVILLE, Ky.,June 16.-Charley Daily,
of st. Louis, and Billy Murray, of Los
Angeles fought ten-round draw at the
base ball park here this afternoon for $500.
They used four-ounce gloves, and there was
some lively slugging from start to finish.
Both men showed considerable science, but
Daily had the advantage in weight.
Murray landed heavily on Daily's mouth
in the first round and scored clean knock
down. The first blood was drawn by Daily
in the third round. At the close of the
ninth both were very tired. Daily had q
bad cut over the left eye, and Murray's lip
and right eye were cut and swollen. In
the tenth the men were so tired that their
blows counted for little.

to numberless letters he has received con-

fends the morality of the Kreutzer Sonata,
and declares that society rots through
wrong ideas of love, of which the physical
side and not the spiritual side is cultivated.
Loves various developments. he says, are
not a fitting object to consume the best en-
ergies of men. Poets and. romancers have
exalted love to undue Importance. He de-
clares further that service to God and hu-
manity. to science and art, and to ones
country, is far beyond personal enjoyment

All Cretans Are Bad.

LONDON. June 16.-The correspondent of
the Daily News at Vienna learns that since
the departure of Chaiklr Pasha, Governor
of Crete for Constantinople, whittier he
has been summoned to report upon the ex-
act state of affairs in that unhappy island.
the troubles between the Christian and
Mussulman Cretans have very much in
creased. The present condition of affairs
there is represented to be very alarming
and as requiring immediate remedy. The
weight of evidence goes to prove that
although the Christian Cretan is regarded
as a martyr outside of his own country,
and is generally believed to be most cruelty
prosecuted by the so-cailed Turks. who are
in the very small minority, as matter of
fact he is really the aggressor in nine cases
out of ten.- and the appropriation of the
widespread sympathy that should fall
upon his Mussulman countrymen. More
over, the Cretan Mussulman is no more
Turk than his Christian feIlow-country-
man. Both are Greeks, and the one is
equally intolerant, vindictive, brutal and
mendacions with the other.

The Cholera in Spain of the True Asiatic
Kind, and Rapidly Spreading.
MADRID, juno 16.-Much alarm is occa-
stoned by the continued spread of the
cholera at Puebla de Rugat. The authori-
ties are making q strong effort to stamp
out the disease. but so far they have been
unsuccessful. and new cases are reported
daily. Yesterday there were four deaths
from the disease and nine new cases were
reported. The doctors at Puebla de Rugat
are greatly oyerworked, and the authori-
ties have telegraphed to Valencia, asking
that physicians be sent from that city to
aid them. The supply of drugs is running g
short, and the town officials have also tele-
graphed for a fresh supply from Valencia.
The total number of cases thus far reported
is ninety-one. One of the persons who fed
from the town for safety has died from the
disease at Albaida. DR.. Candida, who is an
expert, declares that the disease at Puebla
de Rugat 10 true Asiatic cholera.
The government announced in the Senate
to-day that it had not been proved that
the disease now prevailing at Puebla de
Rugal is Asiatic cholera, and there was no
cause for alarm. 1t was further stated that
the board of health had sent deputation
to Valencia and had taken sanitary meas
ures to prevent the spread of the disease.

The ladies of Lathrop, Missouri, who partici-
pated in the raid upon the sblind tiger liquor
dens in that town, to the the number of seventy
or more, have been arrested and have given bond
for their appearance at court, to answer to
charge Of riot. 1t will be remembered that these
ladies did what tie local authorities had failed to
do, suppress the saloons that were running out
side of the law, and il it be possible that Judge
Lynch's court is ever ustfable in its verdcts, it
was certainly true in that case. 1t is now re-
ported that the saloon-keepers have also been ar
rested and will be prosecuted to the full extent of
the Law. The action of the ladies has at least had
the very sautary effect of strengthening the nerve
of the county officials, and bringing them up to
point where they begin to realize an obligation to
enforce the laws. No good cause is ever won
without its martyrs, and il the ladies Of Lathrop
had remembered this old tme-worn truth, had re-
fused to give bond, and gone to Jail, the question
of the law-breaking saloons and the non-law en-
forcing county officials would have been settled
forever in that community. The ladies would
doubtless have had dry time while in JAIL but it
would have fallen far short OF the spirituous
drouth pervading in Lathrop hereafter.

A BILL has been recently introduced in the New
York Legislature by Senator McNaughton, to
lower the age of protection for young girls, from
sixteen to fourteen years. The introduction. of
such bill is disgrace to any State, and ought
to be received by every individual legislator in the
assembly as a personal insult. But the greater
wonder u.s. how there could be found man SO
mean and contemplate, as to be willing to father
d measure so infamous. The Philanthropist says:
"On the vely day that Senator McNaughtons
bill was reported favorably in the Senate, case
was announced in the daily journals of this city of
an elderly Hoboken church trustee } and clerk
in Sixth avenue hardware store who was tried
and convicted in the Court of General Sessions for
abducting young schoolgirl aged IA. 1t was
shown on the trial he took her first to house Of
il-repute in Twelfth street, but they were refused
admission because the girl was so young Not
to be bafled in his evil purpose, he applied for
room at the West Side Hotel, leaving the young
girl downstairs in the vestibule. Again after
having engaged the room, he was refused admis-
sion to it by the porter because of her youth
Then he was promptly arrested by one OF the So
cety's detectives, by whom unconsciously he had
been watched Senator McNaughton's bill is to
give such men enlarged opportunities to prey with
impunity upon young schoolgirls and others be-
tween fourteen and sixteen, who are now legally
protected, and to remove the present wholesome
legal restraint from the keepers OF houses OF Ill
repute and of certain class OF doubtful hotels. T"
