PARNELL'S SPEECH AT KILKENNY
Heaiy Attacks Parnell for Using Mob ViO-
lence to Prevent the People Hearing
Arguments Against Him.

Especial TO THE HERALD-Examiner Cable. |
PARIS, Dec. 13.-Parnell recently wrote
to the French bankers of the Irish parlia-
mentary fund requesting them to remit to
to him whatever cash balances there might
be standing to the Irish parliamentary
credit. The letter was written and sent
without the knowledge of the co-trustee,
Justin Mccarthy, who, as soon as he
learned of it, took steps to prevent the
withdrawal of finds by Parnell. Legal
proceedings have been instituted, the erect
of which is that Parnen cannot withdraw
the funds from Paris. The McCarthyites
have only about 81 600 and they have with
them all the paid members excepting eight
Parnell, therefore, Eas the bulk of money
and very few of the paid mem bers TO take
care Of. This indicates the immense ad
vantage OF his position.

The Cruiser Newark.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 13.-The new cruiser
Newark started out again yesterday morn
ing for a trial. During the first trial We'd
ensday there was a break in the machinery
which necessitated repairs. When she
headed to sea Friday morning there was
stiff north wind on and the official trial had
been in progress three hours when the Two
bolts which had been repaired broke again
and for a second time the trial was stopped
greatly to the disappointment of all on
board, as the cruiser was doing mag
nifcently.
One of the officers on board says she had
logged an average speed OF ninteen knots or
ABOUT twenty three miles an hour and the
indications were her horse power would be
about ninety i've hundred. The officer also
SAID she was one of the steadiest ships in
heavy sea he had ever been in. The run
up to the ship yards this morning from the
breakwater, 103 miles, was made in hours
and minutes with only one engine work
ing Another trial will be made soon.

Symons, the results of preliminary ex-
animation for a ship channel between Fort
Townsend bay, Puget sound and Oak bay,
Captain Symons reports ship channel
TO connect the two bays might be OF con-
siderable Importance in time OF war, but
the commerce which might be benefited
by the proposed canal is and will be fol-
some time not at all commensurate with
the cost of opening and maintaining the
same. II the proposed iron and stee
works at a near date are established, the
benefits to be derived from the canal II
future may justify its being built, but he
cannot at present believe they will.

HAUNTING THE WHITE HOUSE.
Man Who Has an Insane Idea That He

Must XII the President, Arrested.
special TO TEE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch.T
New YORK, Dec. I3.-A World special
from Washington says: At 10 o'clock last
night, Edward S. Miller, who ever since
the assassination tof President Garfield,
has given the commissioners, chief of
police, district attorney and many others,
considerable annoyance, was arrested at
his home by Detective Mahan and United
States Marshal Joyce.
Miller has been under the constant
watch OF the police department ever since
last May, and for the past six weeks
special man has been detailed al the White
House to see that he did not attempt to in
lure the President. While apparently ra-
tional in every other respect, Miller
labOred under the hallucinatiOn that it de-
vol red upon him to 2ssassinate the Presi-
dent, and Secretary Blaine, Colonel
Moore, chief Of police, and the district
attorney concluded that il was no longer
safe to allow him TO remain at liberty.
There IS probably no one with whom the
/ government has mad to deal, except Guiteau
4 that has given more cause for worry than
I has Miller After the assassination Of
! Garfield lie suddenly developed the idea
that it was his duty to kill President
Arthur and place Secretary Frealing hUsen
7 in the presidential chair. He hunted the
/ White House for some weeks and during
that time he was carefully watched.
I A number Of doctors were consulted and
under their advice Miller vas detailed
. from the guaEserTG as GER generals tffice for
duty in Vancouver, British Columbia. He
remained there some years and performed
his duties very satisfactorily. He wrote
the department here that he was going
into the interior of British Columbia but
instead of doing so returned to Washing
ton and began 70 make threats against the
! President, saying that two men had sent
| him here TO kill him.

Parneu sneaks at Kilkenny.

KILKENNY, Dec. 13.-The mass meeting
in the interest of Scully, Parnellite pariia
mentary candidate, was addressed by Par
nell today. He warned electors not TO
trust Sir John Pope Hennessy, the candi-
date OF the Mccarthy faction. Hennessy,
he said, was well qualified to be leader in
q party of renegades, there being no party
to which he had not belonged, save the
Irish party. Parnell spoke but briefly,
showing signs of great fatigue, and his
voice being so hoarse as to be at times al
most iDaudible.
Reporters are intensely annoyed by the
mysterious changes he makes in mis- plans.
He has now abandoned his proposed visit
to Limerick and will remain in Kilkenny
until after the election, Notwithstanding
everything has been arranged for his visit.

THE HORROR AT CASTLE GATE.
Work Will Probably be Suspended for at
Least Month.

Shortly before o'clock Friday evening
a terrible explosion occurred in the d. 81
II. G. coal mine at castle Gate, and in few
moments clouds of smoke poured from the
mouth of the coal mine. Several miners
were in the mine at the time, and party
was speedily organized to rescue them.
They found that John Dickson, chief
blaster, and Joseph Berry and j. McGar-
dell, miners, had been killed while several
others whose names have not been learned
were severely injured. Dickson was mar
ried and had a family, but the
other two were unmarried. 1he explosion
knocked out all the props and destroyed
the ventilating fan. This will render it
necessary TO shut the mine down for a
month, and will cut down the coal supply
of this city materially. In order to pre-
vent famine, the company will send the
miners from the Castle Gate mine to SEQ
field and increase the output there as much
as possible.

ton of ire damp and inflammable coal
