The "Citizen' Announced that Parnen
 Would Die Within VaeIl.
 NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-'Boulanger is dead, Balmaceda is dead, and Parnell will be corpse within a week.
 This was said by George Francis Train last Thursday night during his speech at midnight supper given by Huber, the museum man, to a number of newspaper men and well known men about town. Psycho Train was in the mid st of one of his most impassiOnel harangues when he made that remark.
 A number of the party laughed and then Train thundered, "Ye are idiots who laugh. The revolution is on. The people will rise. I am the apostle of hypnotism. Death, devastation and dis ease are in the air. Two advemiurers are dead; the third, Parnell, has run his course, and will die within the week. The ansatlantic-hypnoti c-psychic cable brings me the news. The whole world is conductor, and I am the key" and, rapidly snapping his fingers, he wound up with: "Boulanger, boaster; Balmaceda, bandit, and Parnell, poltroon-all dead, atop of the smoking heaps of the ann bitions of the chivalry of three gallant tionalities-Chilians, Frenchnen and IriShmen.

were hastily summoned to his bedside They found him, later, in an obviouslJ hopeless condition. From 8 o'clock un' til the time of his death Mrs. Parnell Miss O'Shea and tho doctors watched by the Ledside of the sufferer, and allevi ated his dying struggles. His senses now and then would be recalled fof a short time, and then he would laps into unconsciousness.
 Mrs Parnell, who has been completely devoted to her husband, refusing to leave his bedside for even an hour rest, is utterly prostrated by her loss, and her physicians are apprehensive as to her condition. She and the physicians were the only ones present at his death. She believed up to the last moment that he would recover.
 It was at first reported that Parnell had committed suicide, but it was soon proved beyond doubt that the rumor had no foundation.
 It was also reported that he had fought duel with Sir John Pope-Hennessy :, whose death occurred at nearly the same time, but the rumor was speedily dis credited.
 No arrangements are yet known for the funeral

 LONDON, Oct. S.-Charles Stewart Par nell is dead at his home in Walsingham Terrace, Brighton.
 Death resulted from chill which at tackled him last week. On Friday he was compelled to take to his bed. In the evening of that day his condition became so alarming that Mrs. Parnell and the attending physician deemed it advisable to summon other medical aid, and two physicians were at once called in con sultation. Despite their efforts, how ever, MT. Parnell grew steadily worse, and it soon became evident that death was only matter of a short time.
 It is stated that Paruell had conges tion of the lungs, in addition to acute rheumatism. He became unconscious at o'clock in the evening. The doctors

larly prolific of active leading and suc- cessful men. He was born in County Armagh, North Ireland, on the 4th of July, 1909, the birthday, as it happened, of the nation in whose upbuilding he was to render such important service. His father was an Englishman, and his mother of Scoth descent. The family came to New York in 1911, and the boy was educated at the Wesleyan sem mary and fitted for a mercantile life. After three years of this experience, however, young Stephenson's turn for mechanics manifested itself so strongly, that at the age of nineteen he was ap- prenticed to a coach-mal1er in Broome street, and his father fitted up a room for him, with tools and appliances,i in the family home. His evenings were de- voted to the study of his trade, and es- pecially to drawing and designing. Two years later he made his first busi- ness venture, establishing his own shop in May, 1881, at No. 667 Broadway. In this shop he designed and built the first omnibus. strictly so-called, whic'' New York had ever seen.
 About 1881 the first street railroad company was organized, with John Mason of the Chemical bank as presi- dent; and the "Mason," tho first street car ever constructed in America, was built by John Stephenson and used when the road was opened in Novem- Der, 1932. The patent for this car is- sued to MT. Stephenson was signed by Andrew Jackson.
 We have spoken of MT. Stephenson as the father of car building, referring to that industry in it's general scope; but he is more distinctly identified with street car building, which has been his speciality for many years. Regular railroad cars of all styles were con- structed in great numbers at his shops, which were soon enlarged to accommo- date his increasing business; but street cars soon became so popular in all the cities that it taxed his facilities to sup ply the multiplying systems, and he built 0 new factory in Harlem. In the great panic of 1897, which was peculiar ly destructive of railroad values, MT. Stephenson was overwhelmed in the general disaster. But in course of time, with the indomitable courage of his race, he rallied his energies for a new and successful effort, and soon en- tered on career of prosperity which has suffered no interruption. And it is furthermore recorded, to his lasting honor, that he insisted on paying his bankruptcy debts to the last dollar, firmly refusing to avail himself of tho release afforded him by the law.

JOHN STEPHENSON.
The Man Who Built tho First
 Street Gar in America.
At Eighty-Two Years of Age He Retains the Vigor and Judgment Necessary to Run a Business Employing
 Thousands of Men.

The camel of the eastern caravan, the
 Roman chariot and the swift English
 stage coach of the Georgia era, are not more characteristic of their times than
 is the railroad car of the last sixty
 years of the nineteenth century. We arc informed with considerable ire quency what the age specifically is in which we live; it is the age of this, of that, and of the other, from steam, steel and electricity, down to friction matches and postage stamps. But with great reason it may be said to be dis tinctively the age of cars. They are,
 with slight exceptions, the one vehicle
 of public conveyance by land in civil ized nations in modern times. The number of them in use has attained a surprising figure, says the Mechanical News. If we include freight cars, there are in the United States 1,O9o,s13 cars, but of these only the comparatively modest number of 23, 465 are devoted to passenger traffic. This, however, is an array which would be imposing if it could be included in a single view. As suming the average length of passen- ger car to be sixty feet, the train thus made up would be about PCT miles in length, ana WOulQ redcn 1n an unDrOken line from New York to Concord, N. H. Night and day the vast network of 16O,- 900 miles of railroad which lnits the con. | tinent together is being traversed by the flying detachments of this great army of cars. If one can fancy their roof tc be made strongly luminous, and it were possible to take in at a single birds eye view the whole surface of the country from the seaboard to the western limit of the Mississippi valley, these fitting streaks as they run to and fro acros: the map would suggest not inapt com parison with an exaggerated fireworlz
 The subject is one which tempts the mind to imaginative flights, but it i
 nevertheless an intensely practical one and it is to the long-continued efforts O practical men that we owe the ines timablc convenience of the modern rail way car. Chief among these men, b, common consent, is John Stephenson who has been justly called the fathe
 of American car-building, and our DOT trait of whom will be regarded with in terest as representing one of the grea personal forces in national develop ,ment. John Stephenson is of Scotch Irish descent, belonging in that partic .ular to class which has been singu

 NEW YORK, Oct. S.-Michael Davitt makes the following statement on Mir. Parnell's death:
 My feeling about MT. Parnell nov is one of unmixed sorrow at his sudde Il death. The occasion demands the ex- pression of deep regret that he should have been cut of at a comparatively early ages.
 ''We should remember only the good work which he performed for Ireland, in a career of usefulness anI d st.nc.ion for his country.
 His recent unhappy conluct, will, l am sure, be forgotten by grateful reo- pie
 His death will put an end to the m happy dissensions by which the Iish movement has been torn during the last twelve months.
 "Now that his lips are sealed in the silence of death, 1 feel that our ranks will be closed up again in solil move ment for Irish National self-government.
 ''We have done with one-man power in the Irish National movement forever.
 'The leader of the future will be dem ocratic, not aristocratic. He must be the mouthpiece, and not the master of the movement for Home Rule.
 ''Mr. Justin Mccarthy did not des re the post which was forced upon him. He would gladly have given it up at any time since, if his doing so could have put an end to discussion. 'If Mccarthy consents to continue it will, in my opinion, be the most prudent | policy to pursue.
 ''He has never uttered word in the recent controversy which could give of | fence to one of MT. Parncll's followers.
 ''He is Q man of conciiiatory manners, and, as the fight for Home Rule is now nearing a scccessful close, such man will fulfill all the necessary qualilica tions of Parliamentary leadership. "But whether the future leader be Nc Carthy, Sexton or Dillon, it does not matter very much, now that the 1risl race are about to be reunitct. Ina unity will make even brighter and more hopeful still the already bright pros poets of Home Rule.''

PARNELL's MOTHER.
How She Received the News of Her Dis
 tinguish cd Sons Death.

BoRDENTowN, N. J., Oct B. When Mrs. Della T. s. Parnell was informed of the death of her son Charles Stewart Parnell, she fell from her chair to the floor shrieking and grooming.
 ''Oh, my son, my Charles, they have killed you," she moaned.
 She became hyste rical, and it was som time before she was sufficiently com posed to receive the particulars of her sons death.
 Mrs. ParneIl is 76 years old, and quite feeble. She declared that Charles had offered to aid her, but she had assured him she was comfortable.
 She spoke bitterly of her half brother, Edward Stewart, who, she said, had tried to deprive her of her homo and had kept her away from her son. She also excitedly declared that her son had been killed by the persecution of Davitt, the 'Irish World" and the politicians She mourned because these 'vipers" had prevented her from being with her son in his last years.

Action of the Irish National Iearuc.

NEW YORK, Oct 7.-The Municipal Council of the Irish National League met last night and adopted resolutions ex- pressing it's sense of the profound loss which the cause of Irish nationality has sustained in the sad and unexpected demise of Charles Stewart Parnell. It was further resolved to send messages of condolences to the mother and widow of the deceased statesman. A committee
 was also appointed to confer with organ ized bodies of Irishmen in this city and vicinity and arrange for a memorial
 mass meeting to be held in Cooper Union within three weeks.
