LONDON, November 15.-Lord Randolph
Churchill has gone to Monte Carlo and the
Tory whips are beginning to fear that their
political pack will not turn up in sufficient
force for the work of the Parliamentary
session, which comes a week from next
Tuesday. Tory spirit is depressed, and the
press monitors can give the Government no
more cheering advice than TO avoid an
ambitious programme in the coming session.
A final attempt to influence enthusiasm into
the rank and file will be made next week,
when the annual Tory caucus will be held
at Liverpool.
A regiment of policemen has been en-
gagged this week in Donegal helping the
Sheriff to evIct so wretched families on Mr..
Olphant's estates. Since the plan of cam
paign has been in force on his property,
Olphant has been helped by the associated
landlords of Ireland and he has enjoyed an
income almost equal to his entire rent roll.
He could therefore have postponed the
evictions until spring without subjecting
himself to personal discomfort.
But such humane course would not suit
the designs of the landlords in general, and
so the evictions have proceeded brisklv,
despite the fact that all the week tempest
of wind and rain has ragged in the afflicted
district. No mercy has been shown by
the landlords agents. Old men, sick
women and babies have been ruthlessly
turned out of the houses which their
own hands built upon the land, which they
themselves reclaimed from the wilderness,
and they would have remained on the wild
roadside had it not been for the care OF the
league and the kindness of English sympa.
thizers, vino made their way to the remote
district in response to the pitiful appeals
referred to here last week.
> Thanks to the presence of the English
men and women, tine brutal work was car
ried out with q comparative absence of
violence. But there was enough brutality
in the mere process of evictions to move the
women to tears and to make the men, iu the
strength of their indignant protest, almost
forget the presence of ladies.
Mr.. John Swinburne, NJ. P, a wealthy
English land owner and good home ruler
and Liberal, found evicted Widow Her
raghty, her son and daughter-in. law and
eight little children vainly seeking shelter
from the pouring rain near house from
which they had been evicted, and the sight
moved him to declare that if he had per-
petrated on his own estates in England but
one-tenth OF the cruelty which he had wit
messed that day, his tenants would have
strung him up at his own doors and the
country would nave said: "Seryed him
right"

could do anything to prevent him, he had
poured some of the water on the sleeping

TRIBUTE TO TWO GOOD MEN.
MEMORIAL ON THE DEATH OF cHANcEL
LoR GOFF AND r. 3. CARNAHAN.

Action of the Board of Trustees of the
Western acknowledgements hicalSketch
of Prominent Educator-Rare Attain
ments of Public Man.
The Board of Trustees OF the Western
University met Yesterday to take action on
the deaths of Chancellor Milton B. Goff
and Robert B. Carnahan, the latter a men,
ber of the board. James B. Scott presided.
A memorial to the deceased gentlemen was
prepared and adopted. In referring to
Chancellor Gof, the memorial SAYS:
Wilton B. Goff was native OF this county,
having been born In SewIckley December II,
1881, where received his education as boy and
youth. He commenced life as printer, but
soon became a student at Allegheny College,
Meadville from which institution he graduated
in 1855. He was a good student. and, having
extraordinary abilities and capacity for learn
ing, he was also erniuently fitted to become
teacher. to which profession he de-
voted his life. No sooner had he gradu--
sated than he was elected professor of
Madison College. Uniontown. After serving
that institution for two years he became sue
cessiyely principal of the North Illinois Uni
versity, of the Academy at Sharpsburg, and of
Third ward public school, of Allegheny. His
favorite study was mathematics. for which pur-
suit he had . natural taste, and in 1860 he was
elected to the chair OF mathematics In the
Western University of Pennsylvania, which
position he filled with great ability and accept
ance during II years.
H was then called by bis alma mater to the
chair of mathematics and astronomy, where he
remained until he accepted the position of
Chancellor. rendered to him in 1854 by the
Western University of Pennsylvania, which
position he held until his death. which resulted
from an accident while visiting the great iron
plant at Homestead, IN company with the en-
gineers from England and otEer European
countries who recently visited our city. A
broken leg was followed by pneumonia, which
terminated fatally November 8. Chancellor
Golf was prominent and consistent member
of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He was
a man of strong purpose, active, energetic and
faithful, and greatly beloved by the students
and admired by all who knew him.
After giving brief biographical sketch
of Mr.. Carnahan, the memorial concludes:
Mr. Carnahan was man of very considerable
attainmen;s outside of the science of law;
constant reader, possessed of an excellent
memory and a clear and sound Judgment, he
had acquired fund of valuable information,
which is unusual in man whose time was so
fully occupied with professional studies and
engagements, and with the no less e2acting
civic duties of his public career.

explained to the Diet the principle of the
Zone tariff for goods, which is to come into
force on January 1 next throughout the
Hungarian State railway system. This is
sliding scale, and the freights are charged
for units of distance of ten kilometers, so
that goods carried POI kilometers would pay
exactly as much as goods conveyed 21o kilo-
meters.
The rates are nearly so per cent lower
than the present cost of handling, and the
differential rates, which benefited only few
customers, have been abolished, while the
number of special rates have done away

LONDON, November 15.-The loss of the
British cruiser Serpent has aroused heated
controversy on the build of the modern
warship, the argument so far being con-
demnatory of cruisers of the Serpent design.
She had thin shell, while her heavy arma-
ment above the water line made her so
cranky" that old salts refused to sail in
her. Her engines gave four and a half
horse power to every registered ton, and
when under full steam the ship shook and
groaned as though she were falling to
pieces.
Her bows, which were only lightly pro-
tected, bulged three or four inches each time
she struck heavy sea. The wrath of the
cold -blooded Briton is rising, and next week
he will want the scalp of her designer. No
full account has vet reached England of this

comments upon newspapers printing scan

retraction is followed by the additional
statement that every dollar that had been
confided to his care was expended in accord
ance with his trust, and that in all instances
he had done his duty.
Furthermore, the same paper SAYS that it
has trustworthy proof that any report that
has been published against him rejecting

gentleman are the work of some malicious
person. The charges were made in connec-
ton with the church building fund.

IN discussing the question of sewerage for Phenix, the usual and accepted idea is that the waste will be into the river, two miles south of the city. To the ob- jection put forward that the settlers on the lower river might object to having the waters of the stream polluted, the answer is that the flow could be di- rected to one of the sand beds, through which the liquid could filter, the re- siduum being swept away by the semi- annual floods. This might be accept able to the dwellers upon the Gila, but, then, does not the scheme involve a waste of water that is almost criminal, in this arid region? For miles below Phenix are farms. Could not the stream of sewage be turned in that di- rection and be used for irrigating and fertilising these lands? The volume would, at present, be no more than could be easily disposed of upon a sec tion of land.

THE report of the Construction Bureau of the Navy Department is interesting in the extreme, showing remarkable change from few years ago, when the American navy was laughing stock, even among the citizens of the Republic. Within a few years, when the vessels designed and under construction are completed, the navy of the United States will be equal to that of any other nation upon the globe. The old wooden frigates that passed the forts of the Mississippi and captured Mobile are fast being relegated to the navy yard anchorages and there will soon be not a single ship in commission that belonged to the great fleet so suddenly brought into existence by the necessities oi the civil war,
