POINTED CRITICISM.
Tory Opposition to Balfour's Land Pur-
chase Bill.

DUBLIN, April 3d.-Balfour's Irish land
purchase bill meets with very pointed crit
icism from the Irish Tory organ of this
city, the Dublin Express This journal de-
clares that the chief Secretary's measure
will benefit only tenants, and will not
work at all for the easement of proprietors,
who will rather suffer, il the provisions
in the bill are carried through unchanged
1t regards it as an unwise and ill-consid-
cred measure. in which the aim of the
Tories to conciliate the people has been
considerably oyershot. The powers of the
Land Department, it declares over the
guaranty Sund, as defined by the measure,
are very arbitrary.
This protest may be regarded as cry of
fear from the Tory landowners in Ireland,
who desire to keep the tenants under, and
are scared by any sort of concession to
them, even when proposed by their own
representatives. in the Government.
1t looks as if the obstinacy oil these peo-
pie would balk the Government in its
efforts to make a pretense of legislating for
the good of Ireland, and would thereby
confirm and hasten the progress of the
Liberals toward return to power.

HENRY GEORGE EXPECTED
TO STUMP FOR THE DEMOCRATS IN
PENNSYLVANIA.

Tammany Leaders, However, Are Afraid He
Will Do More Harm Than Good, and May
Give Him n Seat In Congress to Keep
Awny-A Talk With Louis r. Post.
ESPECIAL TELEeRAM TO THE DrsPAroH.i
NEW YORK, August 9.-Politicians are
startled to-day by the announcement that
Henry George is to 60 to Pennsylvania to
stump the State for the Democrats. He is q
warm friend and admirer of Chauncey F.
Black, and George will arrive from Europe
August 81.
Louis F. Post, President of the Manhat-
tan Single Tax Club, said to-day: "Yes,
there is talk of George going to Pennsyl-
vanIa. Should he 60 he will talk straight
free trade. He never has talked tariff re-
form, and will not in Pennsylvania. He
would do his heaviest work in the mining
and manufacturing districts"
Democrats here are much agitated by the
report. They say that if George goes to
Pennsylvania under Democratic auspices it
will commit the party to free trade fight.
To keep him out of Pennsylvania there is
talk of running him for Congress from this
city. Tammany is said to be ready to back
him and thus gain single tax
support for the other seats. A prom
inent Tammany man said to-day: "We
would thus kill two birds with one
stone; keep George out of Pennsylvania
and win his following to our side. Better
have one district free trade than endanger q
whole State"
The National Single Tax Convention to
meet here September will be used for q
boom. The convention will represent Is
States, with 400 delegates.

Seventy. Five Million Dollar Scheme to
Get Railroads Iuto New York.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE pIsPArcH.!
NEW YORK, August "a scheme of be-
wildering scope, in 50 far as it touches the
solution of the rapid transit question, seems,
according to Mr.. Lawson N. Fuller, to be
involved in the bill incorporating the New
York and New Jersey Bridge Company.
The apparent purpose of this company is to
bridge the North river at some point in this
city between Tenth and One Hundred and
Eighty-frst streets. The bridge company
has headquarters at 214 Broadway.
The phrases in the act of incorporation
seem to confer upon the commissioners and
the bridge company full power to locate and
construct underground aud elevated railroad
connections. The company So regards
the matter and engineers employed
by them are preparing plans with these
effects in view. These plans, which will
soon be submitted, will provide for union
station in the city easily accessible by rail-
roads from the north, south, east and west.
Despite the fact that the bill allows the
company to bond itself for but S30 000. 900 to
complete its plans, Mr.. Fuller thinks it will
cost S75, 900, 900 for the entire scheme.

Ihe greatest number of vessels that congre-

fully made up, is go. The lock was inn
passable for just SO hours. The total cargo
OF the 265 delayed vessels amounted to 24S, :
4S4 tons, and the number of passengers de-
layed is 1852, of which 1902 were tourists
and go local.
The greatest number of vessels locked
through during any "a hours is 90. The
average time for which the total of 265 yes
sells were delayed is one day 16 hours and 81
minutes. The delay has resulted in the Sault
canal becoming household world for the
time and will, no doubt. exert a powerful
influence in the direction of beneficial
national legislation. The loss to vessel
owners alone will be 10000 per day. OF
course when the loss to the country in gen.
eral is figured it amounts to something over

A ROMANTIC TRAGEDY.

Evidence TO Show That Mrs. Townsend

Herself-A Letter on the Way to vir-
ginia Explaining the Matter.
tBY pUNLAr's CABLE COL
LONDON, August 9.-In connection with
the sensational Newcross tragedy which in
volved the death of Mrs. Townsend and De
La Motto, evidence of a most startling
description will be forthcoming at the ad-
journed inquest on Monday. The theory OF
the double suicide will then most probably
be upset, as it will be shown that De La
Motto had not the least expectation OF
meeting his death; that Mrs. Townsend
obtained the poison and administered it,
having firmly resolved that she and De La
Motto should die together. All the theories
of the daily papers will be exploded, and
the case will resolve itself into one of the
most startling and romantic tragedies that
have come before the public for many years.
A reporter has been informed on the highest
authority that Mrs. Townsend short time
before her death visited more than one
chemists shop with the object of purchasing
poison.

LONDON, August 9.-Advices from the
Azores state that the prospect of famine
there is causing great uneasiness among the
inhabitants. A protest was presented to-
day against the increased taxation of the
people for the purpose Of paying for the
telegraph cable.
Copies of Azores newspapers containing
demands for the independence of the
islands, accompanied by appeals to the
Republic of the United States, were pre-
sented to the Portuguese Cortez. The Gov

a CENSUS OF CHEESE.

Thickiy Populated.
The Dietetic Gazette.1
Mr.. Adamitz has recently made some
researches upon the microscopic organisms
that inhabit cheese. From an examination
of Emmenthal, the best variety OF .Gruyere
cheese, he has obtained the following
results: In each gramme of the cheese, when
fresh. from $4,000 to 140, 900 microbes are
found. With time, this number increases.
A cheese II days old contains 800, 900
bacteria per gramme. The population of q
soft cheese 25 days old, and much denser
than the preceding, is /, 200, 900 per gramme;
and Of q cheese - days old the population
is 1000, 900 microbes per gramme.

THE PHoN0GRAPH IN MEXICO.

The phonograph is an instrument much
more often talked about than into. In all
England it is said that there are only four
of them, though, years ago. we were led to
suppose that every "articulate speaking"
man would be supplied with one. In Mex

phonograph is to be placed in every post
Office there for the use OF those citizens who
cannot read or write. The effect OF this
scientific advance will probably be 10 retard
education.
On the other hand, if Mexicans can be
shy, they will probably feel some embar-
rassment at the publicity that will thus be
given to their biIlets-doux. Even tele-
gram brought by commissionsire to q
postoffice sometimes affords a good deal of
amusement to the employees during the pro-
cess of elucidation, and a telegram is never
so fraught with tenderness as letter. In
a phonograph they would get every sigh.

LONDON, August 9.-Captain John Rob
erts, vaguely described as of America, and
Mr.. Bernard Tamplin, who claims to be an
United States Senator, have been staying at
the Inns Court Hotel in Holborne. But
the tame delights of that high respectable
hostelry began to pail upon the restless
Americans, and last night they set out
together with the avowed intention OF having
good time. Neither being unduly fastidi-
GUS in his tastes, they wended their way to
the shady district of Tottenham court road,
and in low tavern thereabouts made the
acquaintance of Mr.. Maurice Hogan, gen.
tleman of Irish extraction, who follows at
very rare and uncertain intervals the hum
BILE occupation of a bricklayer.
Mr.. Hogan was accompanied by his
daughter Lillian, young person who sells
flowers in the streets. Mr.. and Miss Hogan
deigned to partake of refreshments at the
expense of Captain Roberts and Senator
Tamplin. In truth there was so much
deigning and drinking that the entire party,
including the fair Lillian, got dreadfully
drunk, and went together in cab to Mr..
Hogan's home in Colville Place. Lillian
opened the door with her own latchkey, and
with her fathers kindly help directed the
wandering footsteps of Captain Roberts
along the dark passage. while Senator lamp
lin took up a strategical position outside.
Ere long sounds of strife were heard. and
Sentry Tamplin took the liberty of breaking
open the door. He was grIeved to find that
Mr.. Hogan, Lillian and some stalwart male
friends had so forgotten the sacred laws of
hospitality as to knock down Captain Rob
erts and to jump upon him. The truculent
Tamplin managed to rescue his friend and to
convey him alive from the enemy's country,
but minus watch and chain, pocketbook and
other trifes. Neither gentleman could give
the police magistrate at Marlborough street
court this afternoon judicIally clear &C.
count of the nights proceedings, but suf-
fcent evidence was forthcoming to justify
his honor in remanding Mr.. and Miss
Hogan for one week.
