THE TROUBLE In BOHEMIA.
Count Taafe Said to Have Favored the
Czech Faction Against the Germans.

In Bohemia there are 100000 Germans and
100000 Czechs. The former charge that
Count Taafe has ignored them and given rein
to the Czechs. The Germans demand that in
the German-speaking districts of Bohemia the
German language shall be the official tongue
and that in the districts where there is a mixed
population the language of the majority shall
prevail. TheGermans accuse Count Taafe of try
ing to make all Bohemia Czech country, and in
consequence of the success OF his efforts in that
direction they say German imperial patriot
ism is disappearing. They assert that the Ger
man element, which is the largest and strong
est national mass in the empire. has been kept
down for ten years by the combinations of the
other elements made against it. In the coali-
tiOns of the nationalist elements there is none
they So, which could govern Austria alone or
agree long with any other nationality except in
opposition to the Germans. The German party
point out that the Czechs, who at heart are in
sympathy with Russia, therefore hate the Poles
yet. despite this, the Poles unite with them
against the Germans, who form the backbone
OF the country, and upon whom alone the mon
archy could rely IN a crisis.
On the other hand the Czechs do not con-
template the Germans such innocent and
helpless victims of persecution, and intimate
that tins is not the first they have heard of the
exclusive virtue of that race. They accuse the
Germans of endeavoring to eradicate from the
country the Czech language and institutions
and whatever else may stand in the way OF Ger
nsn, domilation, and assert that they them
solves lhaya had fair play in the conflict only
snee co a;tt Taafe has been In office. They do
not dispute the full right of the Germans to
use their ewn language il districts occupied by
them; but they hold that Bohemia should be
independent, as Hungary is, and CLAIM, that the
emperor should recognize their national rights
and privileges by being crowned king of Bo-
! were.

A Witness Wanted Against Parnell.

In an interview published in the Denver
(Col) Nelcs Thomas Brennan, who was first
secretary Of the land league in Ireland, fur
nishes a statement going to show that man
giving the name of J. F. Kirby, and who
elaImed to be an agent Of the London Times,
visited P. J. Sheridan ut the latter's rancho in
Rio Grande county, Col, and offered Sheridan
$l00. 900 IL he would go to London and testify
against Charles Stewart Parnell in his cult
against the Times. Sheridan pretended he was
willing to give evidence and led Kirby to dis
close the whole of his plans, which information
Sheridan forwarded to Mr.. Michael Davitt in
Ireland Sheridan kept Kirby waiting for him
until SO late a date that Sir Henry James
speech was prolonged in the hope that Kirby
would be able to keep his promise and deliver
Sheridan at the last moment as o witness for

Arrested After Eighteen Years.

Eighteen years ago George Woodson, a ferry
man on New river, in southwest Virginia, was
murdered by four men John French, Pole
French, David French and James Dunford all
Of Pulaski county. The reason was a refusal to
ferry them across the river, which was greatly
swollen. The guilty quartet fed the country
leaving no clue whatever, and all hope OF pun
ishing them was given up for many years. Ten
years afterward David French captured
and imprisoned. Saturday John and Pole
French passed through Knoxville in charge Of
Virginia officers. After thirteen years of free
dom they had been found in the backwoods Of
Harlan county Ky. Pole French is lawyer of
some standing and an intelligent. educated
man. They have been living in the country
made notorious by the French-Ebersoll tragedy,
but it is not known if they had amy connection

Against Political Rights for Negroes

A special to the New York World from Men,
phis says that a memorial to Congress praying
for the abrogaton Of the fifteenth amendment
to the Constitution will be submitted to the
Mississippi legislature today. Gen. A. NJ. West
of Holly Springs prepared the petition. but he
has been advised by other leading men of the
state. They argue that it can do 20 harm. even
if it does no good, and the legislature will
doubtless give its sanction. The memorial sets
forth that all the trouble with the negro and
his presence as an issue is due to his political
rights-rights which his general lnferiority as a
citizen protests against. 1t also relates that
the whites of the state can better afford and
would prefer republican rule without the negro
than democratic rule with him.

No Fear Yet of an Ice Famine.

There is not much apprehension of the fail
ure of the ice crop up the Hudson. 1t has been
cold for few days and all the ice companies
are in readiness with thousands of men to
house the crop when it comes. 1t was on Feb
ruary last year when the first one hundred
men were set to work cutting ice off Staatsburg,
and it was a week later when ice boating COM
meDced. February 20 was the coolest day of
the winter and week later the ice in the river
WAS nearly all gone. This record has often been
duplicated, and the old ice men of that section
have as yet no fears of scarcity Of ice.

BLOOD SHED IN BARNWELL.
Two More Negroes Butchered in That
County.

telegram to the New York Herald from
Charleston. S. c., January IL, says: The outburst
OF Indignation that arose from every corner
Of this state over the recent lynching of eight
defenceless negroes in Barnwell has had no
effect upon the people of that county. Another
outrage Of similar character has just been
perpetrated there. A negro was arrested last
Tuesday at Robbins, country post Office re-
mote from the court house. He was charged
with burglary and was placed in charge of a
white deputy to be placed in Jail to await trial.
The deputy had not proceeded very far with
his prisoner before he was met by large crowd
of masked men. He was halted and his prisoner
was taken out of the buggy in which he was
riding. He was carried over to one side of the
road where there was heavy growth of pines
and was there tied to a tree and shot to death
The negro cried most piteously and begged for
his life, but all in vain. His body was shot
through and through. the bullets burying them
selves in the tree after passing through his
body. The weapons used were pistols of large
Gambler and from the appearance OF the body
and the tree it would be safe to say that fifty
shots were fired. After the mob had completed
their murderous work they rode off as uncon-
cernedly as if they had shot a deer. The
deputy soon followed their example and rode
back to Robbins, where he told of what had
taken place.
READY's BLOODY WORK.
few days ago William Black, a colored boy
about twenty years old, was tied to a tree by
the neck and waist and his brains shot out by
David Ready, q white man, for having stolen
some clothing from Jim Bennett last summer.
For his offense Black plead guilty at the fall
term of Barnwell court and served a three
months term in the penitentiary. He had
been home only one week and had given no
Offense to anybody. Ready before he shot
Black, knelt beside him and prayed for the safe
deIiverance Of the negro's soul and that the
act which he was about to commit might be for
given. Then he slowly arose and deliberately
shot the boys brains out. Jim Bennett and
his son Willie. and one Walker, with II negro
constable, Henry Sweat, were all standing by
witnessing the butcbery. Trial Justice Dunbar,
acting coroner has not committed these Access
series to Jail, although they were placed under
arrest and the above facts adduced from the
testimony at the inquest. Ready was permitted
to escape and has, it is reported, gone to Au-
gusta, Ga.
