THE MARRIAGE CANARD.
Tho cauard involving Miss O'Shea and
Mr.. Parnell has ceased to be heard. Mr..
Parnen comes to the House of Commons di-
rect from Brighton. Capt. O'Shea con-
tinuss co reside at the east end OF Brighton.
Mrs. O'Shea is still at the west end, which
is now known to the people as Fire

with Mr.. Parnell in hooded
American buggy. There is no sign that the
queens proctor will interfere TO prevent
the O'Shea divorce from becoming abso-
lutte.
Archbishop Croke, in a letter denying
between Smith-Bsrry and his tenants
in Tipperary, urges the resumption
of unity Of action in behalf
Of the evicted tenants. He holds that keen
agrarian agitation is still necessary; that
combination ought to be conducted legally
and constitutionally, aud that there must
be no secret settlement with the landlords
as individuals or landlord syndicates.
GLADSTONE AND THE DYNAMITERs.
Mr.. Gladstone having been privately
asked for a statement In reply to Mr.. Par
nell's charge that Mr.. Gladstone gave an in
terview to American dynamiters at
Hawarden, says that his denial alone
ought to suffice The conservative papers
have exhumed the correspondence of 1885
in which Mr.. Gladstone tells Secretary Bal
four that he had authentic information, not
from MIR. Parnell, to the effect that some
power behind Mr.. Parnell would resort to
violence or outrage unless home rule
was granted. The conservatives con-
meet this information with Mr..
Gladstone's secret knowledge that
certain American extremists, who could
not be either Mr.. Atkinson or DIR. O'Reilly,
were visiting England in 1889. The cable
dispatches, however. enlightening the public
as to the character Of both Mr.. Atkinson
and DIR. O'Reilly sufficed to defeat the con-
out of the incident.

and democrats continue to charge each
other with fraud in more or less definite
holding back the returns for the purpose of
changing them so as to give Mr.. Cregier a
majority, while the democrats charge the
republicans with having juggled the returns
in certain precincts by counting votes cast for

democrats Of conspiracy to secure an ap-
parent majority for Mayor Cregier before
the election board with a view to precipi
tating contest in the courts, which can be
protracted, Mayor Cregier IN the meantime
holding the office until the two years pro-
vided as the term of the office shall have

pose, and that he knew prominent business

SCoTTDALE, PA, April lO.-It is now
absolutely certain that the coke strike will
be fought 20 the bitter end. This was the
unanimous decision Of to-day's conventions
of the strikers, and it is ringing throughout
the region tonight Seldom tefore has
such general interest been taken IN
a convention, and crowds Of
strikers and citizens surrounded
the knights of Labor hail all the afternoon
to learn the outcome. The convention was
OF a special character, and this morning
when business was commenced fully eighty
delegates answered the roll call, on account
Of its varied Importance every plant in the
region having representative.
ALL IN FAVOR OF HOLDING OUT.
It was evidenced early in the day by the
expression of the delegates that the feeling
OF the masses was for continuation Of the
struggle, and subsequent events only carried
IL out. The following resolutions were
unanimously passed;
Resolved, That we, tho delegates or the work.
men OF Connellsville coke region, In convention
assembled, stand firm until satisfactory set

HARRISON AND RECIPROCITY.
The President Hes Talk With Sec
retArY Blaine

WASHINGTON, April 10.-The President
sent for Secretary Blaine yesterday, and in
a talk of two hours length solved the
foreign affairs Of the nation, particularly
those with Canada. The Presidents most
important determination was that the Cam
adam reciprocity negotiations should not
begin until next fall. This conclusion was
due to several causes. Neither the Presi>
dent nor Secretary Blaine wants reciprocity
with Canada. The President wants
country, and Canada is the ex-
ception in all Secretary Blaine's
reciprocity planning. This did not, of
course, make the Presidents snub any
easier for Secretary Blaine to bear, but it
made him perfectly willing to let the reci-
procity negotiations go over until next fall =.
Then Mr.. Mckinley stepped in, not, as was
reported, to advise President Harrison to
snub Secretary Blaine by breaking his en-
gagement with the Canadians for him, but
to urge that, the matter having been post
poned by this action, it would not be taksn
up again until his campaign in Ohio should
be practically completed.
WHAT THE STAR SAYS.
The EUening Star prints the following:
ut now looks very much as though there
States and Canada on several topics about
the middle of next October. Oct. 10 is
said to have been agreed upon between
Secretary Blaine and Sir Julian Pauncefote
es the date for talk on trade relations,
and meanwhile Sir Charles Tup-
per will have ample opportunity to
arrange certain matters with the
British premier that are necessary
before there can be full and free conference.
Secretary Blaine, it is understood, has de-
termined to utilize the an xiety on the part
of the Canadian administration for a re-
clprocal arrangement to good advantage In
bringing the Ber1ng sea problem to an issue.
The offer Of Canada to open up freer trade
with the United States does not datter
Secretary BlGine. The question thus pre-
sented, 80 it is asserted, has little
weight with him when compared with
the more important one of sthe Bering sea
fisherie', which he regards as the absorbing
topic for diplomatic thought. The belief is
that the secretary is, therefore, going to
meet the Canadian commissioners in
October with a proposition that the discus
sion between them shall be upon three
topics: First, Bering sea
second, the NewFounland fish
cries; third, international EE trade.
His attitude will be that of g shopkeeper re-
fusing to open new credit with customer
until he has settled up his old account. By
this means, it is thought, the secretary may
be able to bring representatives of England
up to the dilemma of either abandoning the
question of reciprocity or of making some
sort of advance toward settlement of the
seal problem"

The Search of the Records by the
southern States.
WASHINGTON, April 10.--Assistant Sec
retary Nettleton has addressed letter to
the governor Of each of the southern states
in regard to the refuuding of the direct tax
collected in those states by the direct tax
commissioners from citizens. Copies of the
letter were to-day mailed to the governors
of Virginia, West Virginia aud North Car
DINA, who have filed applications for the
refunding of the tax. The following is the
the refund Of the public tax to certain
states provided for by the act Of congress
approved March 2, 1891, il is the wish OF the
treasury department to furnish TO duly
authorized representatives Of the governor
of each state access to the records of the
department under circumstances which will
occasion as little inconvenience as posi-
BILE. Inasmuch as these original records
cannot be removed from the custody of the
government, and as the available space in
the TREASURY building is limited you are re-
quested 10 name at least approximately the
date when you will wish your representa-
tive to make this search Of the records and
the number of persons who viii be thus
employed, for whom work room will need to
be provided. In this connection suggestion
| is made that the matter would be greatly
| facilitated If you would sead an agsnt to
| Washington TO look over the records, which
will need to be examined, and form some
estimate of the amount of work to be done.
All facilities within the control Of the de-
partnent will be furnished for the purpose
indicated"
