Tho Ex-Chief Meets with Some Un.
pleasant Receptions.
DUBLIN, Dec. lS.-It coming to the
knowledge Of Mr.. Leamy, who was ap-
pointed editor Of the United Ireland by
Mr.. Parnell and other Parnellites, that
an anti-Parneli edition of that paper
would be issued from tho Office of the Ma.
tion (T. u. Sullivan's paper) steps were
taken to secure an injunction against
the Nations publisher. The court
granted the writ prayed for restraining
the publisher Of the Nation from issu-
ing the edition in question. Notwith-
standing the issuance OF the writ the
forbidden edition made its appearance.
A wagon loaded with copies OF the
ti-Parnell edition of United ireland
was driven to the Kings Bridge railway
station, 1t being the intention to
load them on train for distribu-
tion in the south OF Ireland. As
the wagon drew up at the station,
two men. ono OF whom had his face
covered with a mask, and the other
with drawn revolver. sprang upon the
Vehicle and compelled the driver to,
proceed with his load to the island
bridge. When they arrived upon the
brilge the two men flung all the papers
into tho Litfey river.
On the arrival Of Mr.. Parrell's United
Ireland at Castle Island Friday crowd
seized the papers and burned them.
Parnells journey to Kilkenny was
without incident till the train reached
Athay. Here crowd had gathered
which hooted and groaned at Parnell.
They shouted: ''To -w with Parnell!"
and gave three cheers for the bishops
and priests and cried: ''Long live Dillon
and OBrien!' At the other stations
pass"d there we're gathered knots of
people who cheered Mr.. Parnell.
At Forl Arlington the crowd was
divided. Half cheered and half groaned.
Some one said to Parnell: May the
curse Of God melt you and your ad-
heronts!" An almost equally violent
crowd was at Kilkenny station.
Sixty police made passage. The
Workingmen's club received him and
there was great cheering. A torch
light procession, headed by the corpo-
ration officials, was in waiting, aud
upon the arrival of the train escorted
Mr.. Parnell to his hotel, where he ad-
dressed the crowd briefly.

MILWAUKEE, WIS. July 22.-Bay View was
shaken shortly after o'clock this morning by
an explosion of such terrific force that the
good people of that suburb jumped from their
beds, believing their houses to be rocked by an
earthquake. The conclusion was due to an
explosion resulting from leakage of molten
iron from blast furnace No. 4. There were a
large number of men working around the fur
mace at the time, but only one-Jos. Lewis
was hurt He was caught by the food OF molten
iron and burned until the flesh dropped from
his bones. He is still alive, but there is little
hope Of his recovery. He resides in Bay View
and has large family. The damage to the
furnace is considerable and it will probably be
necessary to empty and refine it. report
was current Immediately after the explosion
that several men were buried under the debris
but investigation developed that the report was

Railway Company, said last night in relation to
the press dispatch which announced that the
Canadian Pacific Railway Company had OBJ
tanned a Legal decision confning their rights to
obtain entrance into Chicago tina. the legal
proceedings referred to were between the Wa
bash and Chicago and Western Indiana compa-
MES, the latter being the company that
supplies terminal accommodation to
the Wabash, Grand Trunk and four
or five other companies entering Chicago.
The point at issue was whether the Wa
bash had right to bring traffic exchanged with
the Canadian Pacific without paying additional
rental. As q matter of fact tho Canadian Pa
cifc does not run its trains into Chicago. They
merely exchange traffic with the Wabash com
pany 1T Detroit. and the Grand Trunk was moi
