Gladstone Makes Speech In n Heavy
Downpour of Rain.
iBY CABLE TO THE pIsPATcH.I
LONDON, August 23.-If Mr.. Gladstone
were the ordinary old gentleman, he ought
at this moment to be tucked in bed with hot
water bottles at his feet and mustard
plaster on his chest. That he differs from
the average man of 80 odd years is proved
BY the fact that to-day he is in the best of
health, notwithstanding the fact that on
Thursday, which was an unseasonably
chilly day, he stood for As minutes in a
pouring rain. speaking words of wisdom to
q small audience of enthusiastic agricultur-
lists. The occasion was the annual flower,
fruit and vegetable show at Hawarden.
The Grand Old Man had promised to
make a speech in the open air in front Of his
castle, but the weather was SO atrocious that
it was generally supposed that he would not
keep his engagement Mr.. Gladstone, how
ever, is accustomed to keep his engagements,
and he would no doubt have delivered the
Grafton had the audience consisted solely Of
reporters. Mrs. Gladstone as usual was on
hand, but her attempts to insinuate a
macintosh on to the grand old shoulders
were fruitless, and the orator was wet
through before he had recognized the reason
ableness of her suggestion to put up his
umbrella. Ere long the weaker of the au-
dience took refuge under convenient trees
and Mr.. Gladstone for the first time realized
the situation and considerably, but some
what abruptly, closed his speech. He went
indoors and changed his drenched clothes.
An hour after, when the weather had
cleared, up he started out to select a tree
which he felled to-day.

DISS DEBAR AS A NUN.
THE sPooK PRIEsTEss SAILS THE SEA
UNDER FALSE coLoRS.

Back Again in New York After an Event.
full Ocean Voyage In the steerage of an
Inman Line stenmer-Sennces and Re-
Hgious Services on the Steamer.
NEW YORK, August 23.-The passengers
on board the Inman steamer City of Berlin,
which arrived from Liverpool yesterday
morning. had one incident at least more
than is usually counted on to beguile the
hours of the voyage. This, too, was eIclu-
sive of the four icebergs seen in one day.
The incident consisted in the presence on
board of Madam Diss Debar, of "spook"
picture fame.
On Sunday morning Captain Land told
some of the passengers on deck that there
was nun in the steerage; nun, too, who
hadapparently seen better days, for when she
went to Europe a short time ago she sailed
on the City of New York, occupying $500
apartments. Her name was Sister Ignatius.
and she had just witten a note to the cap
tain, reminding him that there were many
Roman Catholics in the steerage, and asking
that Roman Catholic service might be
held there. The captain readily gave his
permission, but for some reason the service
was not held.
England was held in the saloon and Sister
Ignatius attended it, and it was then that a
lady among the saloon passengers recognized
her as Madam Diss Debar. This lady had
good cause to remember the medium, as
she once paid her $50 Tor two "spook" pic
lures of dead friends and lost the little con-
fdence that she had in the medium when
she received a communication from one of
the friends asking for funds.
When it was reported on deck who Sister
Ignatius really was there was yet more in
terest in the $500 apartments on the New
York and the steerage passage on the Berlin,
and it was rumored among the passengers
that she had been in Rome, and that her
plans there, whatever they were, had not
succeeded so well as she had hoped they
might
Captain Land, who has an aversion to
people sailing under false colors, at once
wrote on the passenger list of the steamer:
Mime. Diss Debar, we know you" he
then drew line under the name of the lady
who had recognized the medium, put the
list in an envelope, addressed 1t to "Sister
Iguatius," apd sent it to the steerage by a
steward. The steward was not heard from
again in a long time, and when he was he
had no better story to tell than the needy
knife-grinder in the poem. For the rest of
the voyage there were frequent inquiries
about Sister Iguatius, but not a word could
be heard from her.
When the shin reached quarantine yes
terdsy morning Sister Ignatius objected to
passing in review before the Health Officer
with tine other steerage passengers, but she
was soon brought to see the utility of re-
sistance, and she submitted. But the best
of the whole story is that the agents of the
Inman Line in Liverpool were inspired with
such confidence in this traveller Of varying
means that they wrote a note to Captain
Land before he sailed asking him to see that
Sister Ignatius should be made exception
ally comfortable.

LONDON, August 23.-William Terring-
ton, brother of Henry c. Terrington, who is
reported by cable to have committed suicide
in New York by jumping from the High
bridge, is very anxious to know whether or
not the news is true. He says that he had
telegraphed to the police of New York and
to the Mayor and is unable to get any re-
sponse. He last heard from his brother, he
says, in April. and at that time he was in
the best of health and spirits. and every
thing indicated that suicide was farthest
from his thoughts.
Terrington is gentleman of wealth and
leisure, who lives in chambers in fashion
able street off Piccadilly. He says that
financial difficulties could not have had
anything to do with his brothers suicide,
and that he was in prosperous circum-
stances.

A COSTLY NAVY.
BRITISH TAXPAYERS GRuMBLiNc At THE
ENORMOUS EXPENSE.


The Naval Maneuvers Rather Discoura Cling
The vessels Cannot Carry Enough Coal
TO Make Them Efective-A Number of
Large Ironclads Out of Date.
rBY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH,
LONDON, August 23.-The British naval
maneuvers just concluded have cost about
9200, 900, and the taxpayers are complain
ing that the show was very dear at the
price The operations were designed to
elicit information as to the possibility of
an enemy obtaining and maintaining for
ten days control of trade routes, and thus
cutting off England's food supplies. The
enemy has won all along the line, and
pessimists have promptly prophesied the
downfall Of Britain in the first war in which
she may be engaged with q irst-class
power. But the prophecy is scarcely
justified by the facts of the case.
The enemy's feet was able to steam to the
furthest limits assigned by the rules of the
game, but to do SO an average of 100 tons
beyond the proper coal capacity of each
ship was taken aboard, room being found
for the extra fuel in the batteries, with the
result that the big war ships would have
been unable to use their most powerful guns
nents. The commander of the so-called
British feet conforming to ordinary pru-
dent rules, was content to fill up his bunk
ers and to keep his guns ready for action.
His ironclads and cruisers would have de-
molished the enemy's vessels could they
have come up with them, but they were
unable to steam far enough, and
humorous result was that the
main squadrons never got with 30 miles of
each other, while the hostile war ships
preyed unrestrained upon British COM
merce. For the rest, the torpedoes have
been lost. gunboats have collided with each
other, and the machinery in the larger ves-
sells has developed eccentricities which in
actual warfare would have cost hundreds of
lives. A number of vessels will have to be
placed in the dock for repairs, and by the
time complete bill has been settled the
total cost OF the maneuvers will probably
have reached a500, 900. To add to the dis.
gust of Britannia, who rules the waves, the
Admiral of the feet Sir Thomas Symonds,
has inopportunely discovered that AZ of her
" larger ironclads and 10 transports are
either dangerous or useless owing to made
quate bulkhead arrangements or obsolete
machinery and armaments.

IRISH CROPS RUINED.
Farmers Flowing Up the Potato Field and
Planting Cabbages.

IBY CABLE TO THE DIsPATCH.I
LONDON, August 23.-The correspondent
of the Pail Nall Gazette telegrsphs to that
journal to-day from Middleton, in county
Cork, that the farmers in that district toll
lowing the advice recently given by Michael
Davitt, are now plowing up the ground oc-
cupied by potatoes and are preparing the
land for crops, such as cabbage, in order to
provide some kind Of food for the coming
winter in place of the ruined potato CROP
The potato crop is so badly diseased that
they are not even food for pigs.
The Daily Ne,cs says that reports from all
parts of ireland leave hardly any doubt that
the country is in a measurable distance of
famine, not only in the south and west, but
in the eastern and most fertile parts of u
ster counties, Armagh and Down. The symp-
toms of the blight have appeared in county
Mayo. The crop is an absolute failure, such
tubers as exist at all being no larger than
marbles, while in other cases there is moth
ing at all at the roots. Already the price of
potatoes in county Cork is three times what
it was last year.
