numbering the 9-montbs-old son of his
girl wife, TO whom be WAS married in

nisbed. McIain has three young daugh-
tiers 10y former wifel, who told in school
yesterday that their father had taken the
baby by the heels and pouL ded il against
the door. The story WAS spread by the
school children, aud this morning the
police were notified. They arrived at the
house just in time TO find McLain making
preparations 10 bury the child himself
A pust-mortem examination was held
proving hey ond doubt that the child had
been reat eel Ia toe most brutal manner
imaginable The face WAS covered with
scars, the lett ear deeply gashed on the
inner side, and the body bruised in several
places. \ leg had been broken above tbs.
knee (thr leg might have been broken
two OF three weeks, and the other injuries
were numerous. Coroner Bailey held an
inquest and the jury decided that the
child had come to its death as the result
OF wllliul and malicious inhumau treat
ment at the hands of Frank Mcl.ain.
IL was only by the foresight OF the sber-
III that Mclsaln escaped the vengeance of a
mob tonight. As soon a the result of the
coroners inquest became generally known
mob began 10 collect around the CITY iail
BY 4 o clock 5000 people clamorinC for the
murderer's life, surrounded the place
The officers assured the leaders of the mob
that McLaln WAS not confined there. but
they needed more substantial assurance

bent on saving the prisoners life. They
threatened 10 break into the iAil unless

souality is not lacking. 1t is found in G.
w. Williams, the master of Rush park,
where the meeting was held. His history,
In its way, is as remarkable as the record
of the track which he owns. He is one of
the young men who has made fame and
fortune in the west. 1t was but thirty
four years ago that he was born in New
York state. When eleven years old his
family moved to Iowa, settling near indie
pendence.
In 1875 he was running milk wagon in
Chicago. In 1876 he learned telegraphy
and was an operator for a time. Two
years later he started a creamery in Inde-
pendence and shortly afterward estab-
lished the Charles Creamery company in
Chicago. He made some money, but hs
felt that he had not hit his calling Sub
sequent events show that his feeling was
right In some way his attention was led
to the turf. He bought some land near In
dependence and made the beginning of
Rush park. This was but five years ago.
BY a stroke of good luck, or as a result
OF good judgment in breeding, the first two
colts foaled on his farm were Axtell and
Allerton. In the long history of the turf
these are the only two horses that, as
3-year-olds, could beat 2:20. They made
Williams fortune. Two years ago he sold
Axtell, who held the worlds stallion rec
ord for 3-year-olds-2:12-for $105, 900, the
largest sum ever paid for single horse
With the proceeds of this sale Williams
was enabled to realize his fond ambition
to have great stock farm and a great
race track. This dual ambition is en-
bodied in Rush park. 1t has come to be,
with jump. one of the first of American
breeding farms for trotters, and it's kite
shape track, original with Williams, is the
fastest in either hemisphere The first
great trotting meeting was held on it in
August, 1890 In the annals OF harness
speed it stood unrivaled until the meeting
of this year. II the history Of the track is
TO be one of progression, of which its own
er is sanguine, the most speculative Amer
lean will hardly venture a prediction as 70
trotting records of the future.
Williams is man Of pluck and nerve.
He is planner and thinker OF the most
practical sort. He brings things to pass
In view of his achievements IL is not hard
to agree with him IN the belief that the
things which he has done are but a fore
cast of the things which be will do. He
proposes 20 make Of the prairie town OF
Independence the most conspicuous point
in the trotting world. and there are many I
who think that he will succeed

DR.. BRIGGS VICTORY.

NEW YORK, Nov 4.-Tbe New York
presbytery met today to try DR.. Briggs for
heresy.
DR.. John J. Stevenson of the prosecution
committee said that the COMMITTEES would,
IN due time, reply to DR.. Briggs answer.
DR.. Van Dyke moved todismiss the case
against DR.. Briggs and to dismiss the
commtte. The motion was received with
laughter. DR.. Van Dyke made dignifed
and earnest plea in support of his motion.
Colonel McCook urged that the trial
proceed. To dismiss the case would imply
that the board of discipline was super
fluffy.
Rev. J. H. McIlvain supported the mo-
ton.
Rev. J. Ford Sutton moved to amend by
adding to DR.. Van Dykes motion the
words, I'm consideration of DR.. Briggs
answer"
The discussion on the amendment and
motion continued at some length, and the
motion, as amended, carried by "a yeas
and'39 nays. Seventy-one ministers and
twenty-three elders voted yea, and twenty
six ministers and thirteen elders voted
nay
The case will probably be taken to the
New York synod.

The MAVERICK BANK.

Boston, Nov. 5-The Journal says:
1.-THE facts concerning the loans of the
Maverick National bank have been in the
possession of the comptroller of the cur
rency since January last, and it is now in
timated that another comptroller is likely
to be appointed before long. The clearing
house committee of the Boston banks has
been fully advised of the condition of the
affairs of the Maverick bank all along.
The committee guarded every point well.
The Boston banks have been fortifying
their reserves and are in a stronger finan-
cial position than for long time. Speech
lation explains the crash. The first specu-
lation was in New York and New England
stock, and guarding that speculation
necessitssed going in deeper and deeper
untilta bank was ruined"

THE BLACKTHORN CAMPAIGN.

DUBLIN, Nov 4-Dispatches from
Waterford. where the convention of the
National Federation is being held say that
great excitement prevails there. Many
conflicts between the Parnellites and
Federation delegates have occurred, and
many heads were broken and number oil
skulls cracked. Thirty delegates in q
group were attacked, thrown to the grund
tramped upont and badly hurt. Many OF
the injured are being cared for at the
hospital Several thousand Parnellites
held the approaches to the convention
hall, and everywhere struck down their
opponents. The police interfered and
used their batons freely. Mr.. Dillon, on
arriving at Waterford, was greeted
with mingled cheers and Kisses. Three
hundred police guarded him on his way to
he convention hall and repealed the
attacks of the mob.
Timothy Healy, who was horsewhipped
yesterday by James McDermott, ParnelPs
nephew, was one of the speakers in the
convention He repeated the statements
concerning Mrs. Parneil for which he was
hOrsewhipped.
Mr. Dillon confirmed O'Brien's Boulogne
revolutions, and said that the very men
now calling him traitor Harrington, Red
mond and other Parnellites-were the
very men who telegraphed him while he
was in New York to accept the leadership
in succession to Parnell. They were just
rs anxious to GUST Parnell as were the ma
jority of the Irishmen in parliament.
After the convention the mob attacked
Dillon, aud it was necessary to guard him
with u hundred police aud hundred
priests.
1t is estimated that $50 persons were
seriously and many others dangerously in
jured during the fighting today.
DUBLIN, Nov. A number of ladies of
Longford have decided to present McDer-
mott, who horsewhipped Healy, a silver
mounted whip
DUBLIN, Nov John Redmond and
Timothy Harrington have issued state
ment in reply to William O'Brien'S recent
revelations in connection with the Bou-
logne negotiations. They characterize
O'Brien's statements as artful and dishon-
est misrepresentation, a shameless breach
of confidence, and wanton outrage on
the memory of the dead leader. The sign
ers of the statement say that O'Brien sup
pressed his own copy of the proceedings,
which would show that he and his friends
proposed TO obtain a withdrawal of the
dennnciation of Parnen by the Catholic
bishops, and to give Parnell the right to
veto any home rule bill proposed by the
Liberals.
They challenge O'Brien to publish Par
nell's letter renouncing these conditions.
They also accuse Messrs. Dillon and
O'Brien with suppressing various letters
which passed between the Parnellites and
Gladstone and Morley, the Liberal leaders.
They also allege that O'Brien was not sat
isfied with the promises of the Liberals,
and, in support of their statement, chal-
lenge him TO publish letter which, they
say, he wrote to Mr. Morley, begging him
10 amend his assurances, and Morley's
reply, in which he refused to alter single

Those feet kings of the turf, Axtell and

It, have made the town one of the most

ing to its great trotting meets thousands
of speed lovers from all over the country.
At the recent meeting $4,000 in purses
were offered and paid. This exceeded by
IS, 900 the total amount ever offered
