A GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY.
The New York "Tribun-" Celebrates tn
Comp elton Of Half n Century.

The New York "Tribun-n Celebrates the
Comp elton Of Half n Century.
NFw York, April l0.-This is the fiftieth
anniversary of the birth of the New York
Tribune, and the event was celebrated to-
night by jubilee at the Metropolitan
opera house. The vast edifce was well
filed and program worthy of the occa-
sion was rendered.
Addresses were made by William Nc
Kinley, jr.. Chauncey NJ. Depew, Charles
A. Dana, Roswell G. Horr and George
William Curtis. An original poem was
read by Edmund Clarence Stedman, and an
orchestra fifty pieces, under the direction
OF Walter Damrsoch, rendered six Sc
lections by American composers. These
composers whose talent was thus brought
forward to help in the gold" celebration
were II. II. Huss, j. K. Paine, T. Evander
Stucksen, Arthur Foote. d. w. Chadwick
and Dudley Buck. Men eminent in the
walks of public life occupied boxes and
seats on the stage, and the fair sex was
well represented in the audience. One
box in the lower tier was occupied by a
party of colored ministers and their fami-
lies.
Among others present were: Vice
President Levi p. Morton, Senators J. d.
Morrill, of Vermont, Joseph r. Hawley of
Connecticut, Frank Hiscock OF New York,
Preston b. Plumb of Kansas, Secretary
Tracy, Governor Bulkeley, Murat Hals,ead,
Gen. William H. Seward, Stephen B.
Elkins, ex-Judge Noah ii. Davis and Miss
Gabrielle Greeley.
The exercises were opened by the chair
man of the evening, William McElroy
of the Tribune, who spoke briefly before
introducing the speakers. In referring to
the founding of the Tribune, Mr. McElroy
made slip by naming Whitelaw Reid as
the first editor of the paper. The error
caused little laughter, but Mr.. McElroy
recovered himself by stating quickly that
the mistake was certainly pardonable, as
q man on the Tribune naturally regards
Whitelaw Reid and Horace Greeley as con-
vertible terms.
Mr.. McElroy said that he had only one
sad duty to perform during the evening
and that was TO announce the forced alb
sence of Secretary Blaine. The secretary,
he said, had important business in WASH
ington that would not permit of his leav-
ing that city. Mr.. Blaine sent letter
which Mr.. McElroy read. In it he said
that he deeply le yretted not being able to
be present and expressed in pathetic
terms the esteem he had always had OF the
great newspaper in whose honor the ex-
ercises were being held.
Mr.. Blaine's name was received with
rounds of applause. Then the chairman
introduced Mai. Mckinley.

IS PARNELL MARRIED?
Latest Developments in the
O'Shea Case.
The Affair Takes on Addi-
tional Mystery.
The Lady Said to Be Mrs.
O'Shea's Daughter.
A Possible Scheme to Secure a
Vindica ton.
O'Shea's Friends Treat the Story as a
Stupid Canard.

LONDON, April THE relations of Mr..
Parnell TO Mrs. 0'Shea have been rendered
more mysterious than ever by recent re-
ports. No declaration has yet been made
by Mr.. Parnell himself nor by any person
authorized to speak for either of the per-
sons concerned that they are to be mar
ried when the divorce is made absolute.
The period is now near at hand and the
friends of both are anxious that the am
biguous situation should be cleared up.
This state of affairs has led to the
springing up OF crop of rumors damag-
ing to the reputation of both. These va
rious stories, with more or less foundation,
eliminated in the report that the mar
riage with Mrs. O'Shea would not take
place, as Mr.. Parnell had already been
married to another lady.
Astonishment was increased today by
the rumor that the lady in question is a
daughter of Mrs. O'Shea, and that the
marriage took place in secret because
among other reasons the young lady was
ward in chancery. The latter story
rapidly spread in the Hobbies OF the house
of commons today and is eagerly and vari-
ously discussed, but it finds few believers.
The lady to whom Mr.. Parnell is said
TO have been privately married since the
0'Shea divorce suit. is the eldest daughter
of Mrs. O'Shea. The extreme privacy
with which the ceremony was performed
is attributed to the fact that the young
lady is a ward in chancery, although she
is twenty-one years OF age, and the mar
rage could not be lawfully solemnized
without the assent of the court, and by
his action Mr.. Parnel lays himself open
| to prosecution.
Several Parnellte members of the house
OF commons affect to believe, although
they deny any knowledge of the facts,
that Mr.. Psrnell never had unlawful CON-
merce with Mrs. O'Shea and that his Sc
cret visits to the home of the O'Sheas
were made for the purposes OF meeting
the daughter. whom he married with the
consent OF her mother, but unknown to
her father.
Other Parnellitcs, who are supposed to
know the truth of the matter, when ques-
toned in regard to the marriage declared
their ignorance of the whole affair.
Capt. O'Shea's friends treat the story as
a stupid canard. ,s..-.s. ....-

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Judge Johnston So Holds the Natural Gas
Pumping Act


FoRT WAYNE, April Especial. AT
Valparaiso, today, Judge William john
ston of the Porter circuit court, after an
extended argument by w. d. Holt of
Chicago, Ferd Winter OF Indianapolis,
and ex-senator Bell of Fort Wayne, held
the law passed by the last legislature of
Indiana prohibiting the use OF pumps or
other artificial devices for increasing the
flow of natural gas was unconstitutional
and void.
The ruling was based upon two prin-
cipal grounds: ~ That the law
was an interference under the guise of tbs
exercise of the police power with inter-
state commerce, which subject is COM
mitted by the federal constitution exclu-
sively to congress. (2l That the law vio-
lated vested rights in that it undertook to
prevent the disposition of property by the
owner thereof without any sufficient rea-
son therefor on the part of the public.
The case was a suit to en- oin the Indiana
natural gas and oil company from the use
of pumps and the application of greater
pressure than that permitted by the sta
tute on its lines. The case will probably
be appealed to the supreme court. Judge
Johnston is the judge who held the meat
inspection law passed two years ago I'M
constitutional and void, which ruling was
afterward sustained by the supreme court
of the United States.

William Bales, n Murderer, Swung into
Eternity by Mob.
KENToN, o., April 10.-A mob, contain
ing from seventy-fve to 100 men, hung q
William Bales this morning at 2 o'clock.
The mob was perfectly organized and
drilled. 1t assembled at about l o'clock
and stationed armed guards, who allowed
no one to pass their lines. The side door
of the county Jail was battered in and about
seventy-tive men entered. The sheriff
was overpowered and the keys, after some
search, were found. Bales cell door was
opened and he was ordered TO put on his
pants. He was then hurried across the
road, the moose was adjusted, the rope
thrown over limb, and Bales was pulled
from his feet and left hanging. He begged
piteously while the moose was being adj
justed, but the men were resolute.
The mob was an orderly one and did no
further damage. They wore black hoods
concealing their faces, long overcoats and
rubber boots. They had leader and were
trained to signals and commanded entire
ly in whispers. About o'clock the body
was cut down, by order of Justice Rum
nell, and taken to the city hall.
Bales and two accomplices on Tuesday
night, March 81, murdered Edward Har-
per, policeman, who was attempting to
arrest Bales. The accomplices, Lake and
Noel, were not molested. Bales was not
considered very strong mentally. Tho
lynching was not unexpected, put had
been threatened for some time. 1t had
been set for Wednesday night, but owing
to the fact becoming known it was post
poned. Everything is quiet and no fur

DIR. Wetherill produces a copy OF the
medical certificate and statement on which
anna Il. Dickinson (indigent) was adj
mitted, Feb. %, 1891, to the Dan
vile hospital" This is signed by
G. Underwood, Nj. D., of Pittston,
Pa, and James Oglesby, NJ. d.,
of Danville, Pa, each of whom state that
he has examined her separately. They
certify that they believe her insane, and
that her disease is of character that she
be placed in a hospital for the insane.
The order or request for her reception
in the hospital is signed by ]. S. Court
wright and by ]. s. Hileman, NJ. D.,
and is dated March 2. The accom-
panying statement, which is signed by
DR.. Hileman gives her age as forty-eight
years, says that her insanity has existed
since Feb. 10, and that she has decisions
and refuses food and medicines.
When questioned regarding her exam
ination DR.. Wetherill said he did not know
whether she was examined before leaving
home or not, but that it was not neces-
sary. The law allows patient
to be examined within fortv-eight
hours after being taken to a hospital for
the insane. Asked ii this might not tend
to provoke the patient, and increase the
symptoms of insanity, the doctor said he
thought not to any extent.
Miss Dickinson's discharge from the
hospital is as follows:
