Believed to Have Had Murderous Inten-

tiOns.
One week ago last Sunday Barny
Tenner was poisoned, he believed at
the time by taking a drink of whisky
with Sam Houston, but was later
convinced that he was mistaken, and
suspicion rested on another negro
Bill Hill, with whom he had fuss
some time since. He said that he
wanted to find out for certain before
he done anything. He recovered
from his poison and has been restored
to his formea health, and was out
with a shotgun Thursday morn
ing taking his stand on a prom
inent street corner where he waited,
watching for some one,
some time. Policeman John Lockett
and Constable Boyd went to him
and tried to ascertain his intentions,
but he give no satisfactory reason
for being out with a shotgun, and
they told to him to put it up or they
would put him up. 1t was generally
believed that he was out cunning
for the man that he thought poison
ed him.

Of placing a Western association team in
Chicago. Their advisors agreed almost unan-
imously there was no opening for such an
enterprise. Should another professional
ball team play here next season it will rep
resent the American association, whose
managers are eager to place Chicago on
their circuit and who have prior claim on
Spaldings acquiescence. without which, no
other national agreement organization can
be established here. The visit of President
Thurman last week and his talk on the sub
ject led to the belief that he will make no
effort to divide the local base ball patron
age next year, and the same reasons that
may cause the American association to
abandon the Chicago idea will be more
than sufficient to subdue the Western asso-
citation enthusiasts.

A DELICATE SITUATION.

The Irish ENJOYS Still in New York
Holding Consultations.
New York, Dec. 1O.-The members of the
Irish parliamentary party, Messrs Dillon,
0 'Brien, Sullivan, Gill and O'Connor, were
in consultation all the morning on the ad-
visibility Of making another statement as
to their position on the Parnell question:
To reporter Mr.. O'Brien dictated the fol-
lowing:
''The situation is one of extreme deli
cacy, and may involve consequences affect
ing the whole course of Irish affairs during
our generation. Under these circu1n-
stances we must ask our friends to believe
that it is under a sense Of deep responsible
ity we continue to maintain an attitude of
complete reserve. Having still a strong
hope that the Irish people may be spared
the calamity Of internal discussions, and
being persuaded that we will best aid in
that direction by avoided ali unnecessary
publicity, we are all in complete accord as
to our action, and we must beg the public
to take no notice of ridiculous rumors to
the contrary"
The party has no plans formed as yet as
to their future movements.
William O'Brien has received the follow
ing cablegram to-day from the high sheriff
and chairman Of Cork: Influential COM
mittees in both the city and county are be-
ing formed to sustain the cause. Party fe-
yer is rapidly passing over and common
sense is asserting itself: The city and coun-
ty of Cork will do their whole duty.
