IRISH QUESTION.
Meeting of the Factions i'm Ireland
Sunday, March 4.

Meeting of the Factions i'm Ireland
Sunday, March 4.
Replying to a deputation at Drog-
heda, Mr.. Parnell said he rejoiced at
the proof of support everywhere ac-
corded him. On arriving at Navon
Mr.. Parnell addressed meeting in
the square. He said perhaps some
day in the distant future somebody
would arise privileged to address them
mot as men of royal Meath, but as men
of republican Meath. 1t was Meath
which first gave him the opportunity,
sixteen years ago, to serve Ireland in
public life. They had won a hundred
skirmishes together, and now he
wanted to be allowed to win "A battle
with them. Already they had put q
snaffle in the mouth OF the landlord,
BY and by, with a parliament in Col
lege Green, they would fit these same
mouths with bit and birdoon.
TCheers and laughter. In conclusion,
Mr.. Parnell expressed hope that
his opponents would take warning of
the portents. A popular storm was
likely to sweep them away. Instead
OF opposing, they should rally to his
side. Let them free themselves from
the engagements and English party
alliance woven around them by "the
grand old spider"
The McCarthyite faction OF the r.
ish party held quiet meeting at
Rathkeale, County Limerick. There
were no priests at either the Mccarthy
tie or Parnelllte meeting. This is
due to the fact that Bishop O'Dwver
had advised the priests to abstain al.
together from attending political
meetings.

DECISION IN THE DUNN CASE.
Judge Ladd, of lie Mars, Untangles
Net of Fraud and Forgery.

Judge Ladd, at lie Mars, has decided
a number of suits known as the Dunn
cases. j. M. Dunn acted as an agent
for eastern capitalists in loaning
money. He collected various amounts,
but allied to remit to the eastern men
or TO return notes and mortgages when
they were paid of. Fraud aud forgery
characterized his operations, which
extended into Iowa, Nebraska, and
South Dakota. Tho cases decided
by Judge Ladd involved the question OF
payment OF these notes and mortgages
Il second time. Owing TO legal techni-
calities-some Of the cases were decided
in favor Of the plaintiffs. thus involv.
ing double payment. In the cases de-
cided in favor of the defendants the
notes were drawn payable to |. Nj.
Dunn. Nj. Dunn's wife-and were
transferred under a forged indorse-
ment and were paiG before the defend
ants learned of the transfer. The
court holds that in such cases the pur-
chaser of the note took it subject TO all
defenses the maker might have up to
the time of receiving notice OF the
change of ownership. About $4,000
is involved in these cases and In the
neigh borhood OF 800, 900 in the cases
in the three states Dunn had been
guaranteeing interest on Dakota loans
in the drouth district, and also con-
structed the lie Mars water works,
losing about $25, 900 in that specula-
ton. 1t was on this account, and to
carry on his business that he appropri-
ated the farmers money when they
paid mortgages to him. j. M. Dunn
is the last Of three brothers who have
gone to the penitentiary for similar
defalcation.

A strange fatality seems to be pur.
suing the family OF William McIntrye

two weeks has death claimed different
members of the family, the immediate
cause being different in each case.
Two weeks ago Mrs. Mcintyre died,
after short illness. with la grippe. A

in the best OF health, followed her.
Mr.. McIntryes brother, Amos, was
the next victim. After he had returned

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE.
How the Entombcd Miners We're
Kept Alive.

How the Entombcd Miners Were
Kept Alive.
The four Hungarlans rescued from
the caved In mine near Hazleton, Pa,
were broughtto the surface on the oath
OF February, and the men given a
small amount OF lime juice, milk, etc. &,
and allowed to eat. They will plob-
ably recover from the effects OF their
confinement. 1t is impossible TO try
to get statement from any of the
men, as their weakened condition pre-
vents. All the men are so weak that
simple movements of the head are i'm
possible. How they lived for more
than nineteen days is a question. The
dinner in their pals would have been
sufficient to sustain life for eight days,
perhaps, ifdealt out sparingly. What
they lived on the remainder OF the
time is variOusly conjectured. Their
pals bear unmIstakable evidences of
having been used for urinals, and it
was the use of the contents together
with the eXecrements from their
bodies that kept them alive. Some of
the kettles when found contained
urine, and from the terrible smell
from all OF them it is certain they used
them for repositories as above men
toned. The clear portion where the
men were found was cushioned" by
fresh air. After the terrible rush OF
water on that day the good air came
into this breast, where it was driven
to the point by the water. The men
sought that locality and there they
were found. Tweuty-three men were
in the mine when the disaster occurred.
Six of these escaped, leaving seven
teen, all now recovered, the last of the
dead being found near where the four
live miners were discovered. The
rescued men are resting quietly at last
accounts. The pulses of all but Mas
tuskowitch have improved. He ap-
pears 10 be growing weaker.

EIGHTY YEARS OLD.
The Pope Passes His Eightieth Mile
Stone.

The Pope, March End, received con-
gratulations upon the eightieth ami
versary Of his birthday. Upon receiv-
ing the visit OF the college ofcardinals,
his holiness compared the position
and difficulties of the church In the
present times with the position in the
days OF pope Gregory. The pope
said he was gratiied at the progress
of the faith in England He also said
if God spared him until his Episcopal
jubilee he would devote part OF the
Offering he might receive to the sup
preston of slavery.
Cardinal Lavalletta presented an
address from the sacred college. The
pope in the course of his response
said he had passed another year OF
anxieties and vexations due to attacks
on the church. The position was
similar to that in Gregory's pontiicate
when the church combated the Lom-
bards. Though the bsrbarians tried
his patience, Gregory's greatest trials
were with internal enemies, who were
less ferocious but more evil than the
barbarians, so now the malice of the
church's. enemies was subtle, hut their
snares would not prevail.

ROYALTY On THE RAMPAGE.
The Queen and Prince of Wales
Quarrel at Portsmouth.

The Queen and Prince of Wales
Quarrel at Portsmouth.
Quite a sensation was caused by the
report of a.quarrel between the Queen
and the prince of Wales at Portsmouth.
1t seems the prince heard, through
the foreign Office, alarming accounts
of the position OF ex-Empress Fred
erick in Paris. He decided to go and
bring her away and wired his sister to
leave Immediately IL she could not
wait for him. He also telegraphed
The queen. When he joined the
queen at Portsmouth, her majesty
was greatly excited and was heard to
say to BIN: What do you say; turn
my daughter out OF Parisp" The
prince replied, in a low tone, but the
queen, visibly enraged, repeated that
it was impossible that any insult
could be offered her daughterin Paris.
She blamed the prince for his in
judicious course and threatened to
countermand his telegram. He pro-
tested earnestly, and finally the queen,
giving in, sent another cipher tele-
gram to ex.Empress Frederick, press
ing his own and the queens wishes.

Eight Hour Riot in Omaha.

OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 1.-THE trouble at the
Omaha and Grant Smelling works over
the eight hour day took a more serious
aspect to day. The men have been work
ing eleven and twelve hour shifts and have
many times agitated the question of shifts
of eight hours each. When the eight hour
law went into effect Saturday the company
demanded the men sign contracts bind :
ing them to work the same hours for the
same pay as before. The men who wers
not willing to do this were asked 10
report at the main Office of the company.
Several did so report and were promptly
discharged. This created much dissatis-
faction, and all last night mutterings of
discomfort were heard. A heavy force OF
police were put on guard at the works. and
trouble was averted at the time. at Z
O'Clock tonight the day shift of men as

men from the furnaces and other parts of
the buildings. The police there could do
nothing with the mob.
By ! o'clock this morning everything
was quiet. All the men had quit work and
left the place; NO one was injured, though
the mob at one time threatened reporters
with violence. The fires in the furnace.

Democratic heetings in Davis County.

KAYsvILLE, Utah, Aug. 2.-[Special tele-
gram TO THE HERALD. During the week
just past Democratic ratification meetings
have been held in nearly every precinct in
Davis county. All of these meetings have
been largely attended and unbounded en-
thusiasm has prevailed. The plain and
simple truths of democracy have been
ably and eloquently expounded by some of
the best men in the Democratic ranks
The meeting at Layton last evening
was a great success and the enthusiasm
manifested was something wonderful.
Judge L. R. Rhodes, of Ogden, delivered
one OF the ablest speeches that has been
heard in Davis during the campaign. The
pernicious effect of high protective tariff
on the prosperity of the laboring classes
was clearly demonstrated, and the fallacy
eff the idea of strong centralized govern
ment was shown very forcibly. Davis
county will prove herself tomorrow to be
overwhelmingly Democratic and the Re
publican and Liberal parties will be
buried beneath sweeping avalanche of
Democratic votes.
