The One-Time Irish Leader Now Fight

The One-Time Irish Leader Now Fight
ing His Former Friends.
LONDON, Aug. 24.-Parnells letter ad-
mitting the inaccuracy Of the amount
attributed drawn by Mr.. Dillon from
the evicted tenants fund, has brought
to a pause the wretched controversy in
the Irish commoners' ranks, which
really centers in the desire of each side
to obtain control of the Paris fund Mr..
Parnell, brought to bay, is melting out
the same treatment to Dillon and
O'Brien which he has already meted out
to the Healyites and the Liberal leaders,
but he is fighting an impossible battle.
Nobody doubts the scrupulous integ-
rity of Mr. Morley, and, on question Of
veracity, Mr.. Parnell, with his record of
of credence. However, he still knows
the weak points in his enemies armor,
and compels them to vince and take
refuge in ambiguity. This modifying
spectacle, which gains undeserved at
deadest part of the political season. can
Ireland's chances of home rule.
IIO LOly lt65 anu par W hIb uellBub-
ed that Mr.. Parnell has succeeded in
drawing from Gladstone and Morley an
admission of anxiety to reach Mr.. Par
nell through secret channels. Long
leaders in the Tory papers dwell upon
the dircomfture and humiliation of the
Liberal leaders, while the Liberal press
vainly appeals to the party to leave Mr.
Parnell alone. The clericals are incensed
at Messrs. O'Brien and Dillon for adher-
ing to the plan of campaign in defiance
of Rome.
Altogether the position of the Irish
problem, from whichever side it is
viewed, is extremely perplexing. The
only patent fact is that Parnell is dead.
The apathy of the Parnellite organiza-
ton and the constant accession Of Par
nellites of the national federation have
induced the latter organization to in
struct its registration agents for election
lists to make no distinction between
Parnellites and McCarthyites.

cause the people are actually in need OF
the grain demanded.
"At the time the farmers sold their
surplus rye it was expected that Russia
would furnish enough to make up the
deficiency, and that when the supply
! from that country commenced to come
In the grain could be purchased at a
much lower figure than was paid in the
: German markets for the rye that was
sold. This expectation has moi been
realized. The Russians have concluded
that their rye supply is not more than
sufficient to meet their own wants, and
have forbidden its expectation. This
forces the Germans to look to the
United States to make up the deficiency
in this cereal. These conditions have
given healthy tone to the German
market, and look for larger export
trade in grain with that country this
year than ever before.
Russian Rye Better Than Ours.
"The Russian rye is superior to ours,
and is preferred by the Germans when
they can get it. The grain is larger,
more finty, and has rich golden color
doubt, however, if the quality of bread
made of Russian and American rye
up better when offered for sale, and this
causes it to be purchased more readily
than American rye. The dealers are
My grandfather, who is one of the
largest grain merchants of Berlin, had
bought Russian rye to the value of $780,
900 prior to the issuing of the ukase by
the czar. He had resold the bulk of this
large supply to other dealers for future
delivery, and if the czar's edict will pre-
vent him from getting rye in Russia he
will have to look elsewhere to meet his
contracts. All these things tend to
strengthen the American market.
"Rye advanced forty-five marks from
the time | left Germany until landed
in Baltimore. This is almost unprece-
dented and only shows that the existing
conditions are now being felt. OF course,
with the advance of rye and its limited
supply wheat must also go up. The
causes that affect the one also affect the
other. The Germans, as a rule, are not
consumers of wheat bread, but if the
supply Of rye is not equal to the demand
they will be compelled to substitute
wheat i'll its place.
"Our largest exports of rye within the
last ten years were in 1884. In that
year we sent out nearly 100000 bushels.
Last year the exports were about AZ, 900
bushels. This year look for an export
trade of at least z, 900, 900 bushels, or five
times more than in 1874, and this, too,
at more remunerative figures. The
Germans, think will commence to buy
largely in October and November, and
our markets will be pushed to meet all
the demands that will be made upon
them.
Il am not prepared to speak of the
grain markets in other European coun-
tries, as my personal investigations did
not extend to them, and the information
l have is only derived from tho reports
that came to the markets of Berlin and
other German centers that visited"

THE HOLY COATS ANTIQUITY.
The Garment Woven of Byssus of the
First Century.

The Garment Woven of Byssus of the
First Century.
BERLIN, Aug. PA textile manufac-
turer who was summoned to examine
the garment known as the holy coat,
now on exhibition in the cathedral at
Treves, says that when the wrappers
were removed the vesture was found to
be in such a tattered condition that it
could not be placed on exhibition. Bish-
op Korum, he adds, then consulted some
experts, and finally the coat was given
to an aged and experienced man, who
gummed the fragments of the garment
together, as the material was too much
worn to stand the strain of needle and
thread
The holy coat is now partially over
laid with layers Of materials with which
It has been wrapped up, and these wrap
pers having become decayed, can not be
separated from the coat
DIR. Beck, of Aix-la- Chapelle, declares
that he has examined the reverse side of
the holy coat, and that he found that it
was mounted on byssus silk, which was
used in the first century, which was
never manufactured after tho sixth
century, and which was always ex-
tremely costly. Catholic circles con-
slider this to be proof that the holy coat
is genuine garment worn by our Lord.
1t is explained that byssus is a name
given from ancient Greek and Roman
times to the bundle of silky filaments by
which many bivalve shells attach them
selves to rocks or other fixed substances.
In the pima of the Mediterranean these
fllaments are remarkably long, delicate
and strong, have silky lustre and are
capable of being woven into cloth upon
which very high value was placed.
But the animal which produces valuable
filaments is now so rare that it is almost
exclusively an article of curiosity.

BUCYRUs, Aug. 24.-The man who did
the Columbus Grove bank robbery two
weeks ago, is supposed to be behind the
bars at New Washington, small town

suspicion to the marshal of the town,
