the p. G. q. Il st. L., Railway Com.
pany. The suit was test case and was
brought for the purpose of deciding
whether the Columbus Car Service Assu-
citation, acting as the agent of the L. @.
G. & st. i. Railway Company had the
legal right to charge ear service or
demurruge on cars hold over a specified
time, and whether a railroad company
could legally hold such cars from
delivery until the charge was paid.
The court, after reviewing the case,
decided that the Car Service Association
could legally make the charge and
could enforce the payment by holding
the cars on which the charge accrued.
The Columbus Association allows
consigners AZ hours for loading or I'M
loading cars, and charges 81 a day for
all time over that In the case in ques-
ton, Mr.. Powell refused to recognize
the right on the association to make the
charge, and hence the suit. The AZ

CHEERS FOR SEXTON.

Parnelps Amendment to the Irish Land Bill
Defeated in the Commons.
LONDON, April lin the Commons to-
day Thomas Sexton, one of the members
for Belfast who was loudly cheered by the
McCarthyites and by the Liberals durin &
the course of the debate on the Irish Land
Bill, strongly condemned Parnelps attitude
last night, when the latter made an attack
upon the Liberals policy. Sexton said the
Liberal position was not changed, but that
Parnel's attitude had undergone change.
ParnelPs proposed amendment to Moriey's
motion, making 1t operative whenever the
Local Government Bill was passed, would
prevent Mr.. Morley'S object from being at
tained which object was to compel the
Conservatives TO give Ireland local self
government. Morley's amendment was to
the effect that an advance of money should
not be granted. M0rley's and ParnelPs
amendments were rejected.
Chamberlain RUSSELL Major Saunderson
and Colonel Nolan continued lively de-
bate. Tim Healy made bitter attack on
Parnell and his followers for their incon-
sisten cy, piced with references to the
fox that had lost its tail. Parnell, before
the full House, again turned on Healy and
Sexton. They were, he said, trying in an
underhand way to destroy the bill. He Of
fered to withdraw his amendment, if
Morley would withdraw his and allow the
House to divide on Sexton's amendment,
which wouldfulfll the dual object. Morley as
septed, but the Government insisted upon
division.
The House rejected, by a majority of
seventy. the proposal for a committee to in
Quire into the workings of the Postofice.
This is practically a vote of censure, on
Postmaster General Raikes, who made
spirited defense of the proposal.

DISCUSSING BLAINE'S NOTE.
d.
The All-ImpOrtant Subject in Italy-Ma-
CheCa'S Record.

ROME, April 1.-THE reply of Secretary
of State Blaine to Rudinrs last note on the
subject of the New Orleans affair is the
only important subject of conversation and
newspaper comment throughout Italy. The
text of the reply reached Italy to-day.
The Message says: Blaine'S reply to
Rudinfs last note evinces a great desire to
elude the demands Of the Italian Govern
ment, to escape from indemnifying the
families of the men lynched at New Orleans
and to refrain from acceding to the Italian
Governments right to intervene in the
New Orleans affair.
The Popolo Romano, also discussing
Blaine's reply, says: In view of the tenor
of Blaine'S answer it is difficult to form any
idea as to how or where the matter will end.
1t is officially denied that there is any
truth in the report sent from Rome to the
Daily Chronicle of London that Porter,
United States Minister TO Italy, is on the
point of departing from Rome on three
months leave OF absence.
New YORK, April 17.-Jose p. Macheca,
a wealthy merchant, became the accredited
Consul of Bolivia at New Orleans on July
10, 1880. Concerning report from Wash
ingtOn that he was the Macheca who led
the Italian Malta there and was lyncEed,
Melchior Obarrio, the Consul General of
Bolivia had as her accredited agent in New
Orleans one Mscheca, brother of the one
who was killed by the mob. For three or
four years we have had no Consul, ac-
cording to official reports. Nevertheless.
/ am informed that when Macheca several
years ago left New Orleans he turned over
the Office to his brother, but without author
ity OF the Bolivian Government. You know
that sometimes country is deceived about
its representatives. Some man in some
city is recommended as proper Consul,
and the home Government thinks 1t would
be good thing to have a man
there, SO they send him his ere
dentials, without looking into his his
tory. That was probably the way in this
case. We have been having trouble in San
Francisco with the Consul who got such an
appointment Whatever Macheca, the Con-
sui, may have been to the Bolivian Govern
ment l am certain that the Macheca who
was accused Of the murder OF Chief Hem
nessey had no recognized standing. He may
have represented us without authority.
Bolivia will not take any action in any event.
Neither he nor any OF the rest of them will
trouble US or stir up any ill-feeling between
Bolivia and the United States"

LONDON, April IA lobby report associ-
ates others besides Captain Verney and
De CONAN with scandals that will require
their retirement fir ON the Commons. The
Social Purity" Vigilantes, to whose private
shadowing are due the charges against
have been hunting down other members
who are suspected of being unfaithful to
their wives. The evidence so obtained has
been sent in several instances to their
wives. Some of these resented the action of
the vigilantes and joined in the demand
for an apology, while in other cases the re-
suit has been an inquiry leading to the
divorce court. Regarding Captain Verney,
Intimate friends hold that he is guiltless of
knowingly abetting the woman Florent.
The police have lost track of Florent.
NO CHANCE FOR PARNELL.
Since Healy, across the floor of the House,
renewed his challenge to Parnell to contest
Cork the Unionist leaders have sent Parnell
assurance that they will leave him clear
field to fight out the battle and that no
Unionist candidate nor Unionist support
will obscure the issue. This deprives Par
nell of the last excuse for not facing Healy,
but he will not fight. The decision of the
Cork Board of Guardians yesterday calling
upon Parnell to resign shows that every
chance he had of success has vanished.

RIOTING AT BEN ARES.
Natives Resent the Demolition Of Their Tenn.
pIes BY Attacking the Police.

Natives Resent the Demolition Of Their Tenn
pies by Attacking the Police.
BENAREs, April 1.-THE excitement In
this city originating from the demolition of
the temple increases every hour. All the
shops are closed. and all the natives of the
city and district have suddenly stopped
work and are gathering in large crowds in
and about the large thoroughfares. The
result Is that serious riots have
occurred between the natives and the local
authorities of Benares. British troops are
guarding all the banks and public buildings
and also occupy many points Of vantage
throughout the city and district. The bane-
full effect of this spirit of resentment and
indignation existing amopg the Hindus is
already felt far and wide in India and can
not Mt present be correctly estimated.
At 2 o'clock this afternoon there was a
turn for the better in the aspect of affairs
in and about this city. The change was pre-
coded by furious riot, and In spite Of the
efforts of the local officials, the police and
military, the natives cut the telegraph
wires, looted the railway station and plum
dered the railway treasury chest of about
5000 rupees. The local authorities sum-
moned large number of volunteers to their
assistance and have succeeded in arresting
100 of the most violent rioters. The arrests
resulted in quieting the disturbance, at least
for the present.

Special to THE MORNING CALL

SPOKANE FALLS, April IA startling
disclosure was made to-day that the wife
of F. A. Belts, a prominent citizen and ex-
city official, had been plotting to bring about
his murder For long while he and his wife
have been separated, and Mrs. Belts recent
IL began divorce proceedings, but afterward
withdrew them. A bitter fight has been
waging over the community property, as
Belts is wealthy man. Not long ago po
lice officers learned that Mrs. Belts WAS in
consultation with a suspected crook from
the East. They continued to secrete them
selves In the presence of the conspirators
and learned their plans. The man agreed
to murder Mr.. Belts and was to be paid
$1,000, $3.50 cash, $3.50 in ten days and the
remainder to be sent him on the Isthmus of
Panama.
The agreement between the parties was
that the man who was hired to do the deed
was to come TO the woman's home bringing
the victims diamonds and necktie to show
that the work had been done. and the
signal was to be when be went to her house,
to give three raps on the door, at which
she would ask who's there" He was to
answer "ninety-fve."
Last night was the time appointed to
commit the deed. but the would-be assassin
played false. He nevertheless called at her
home and gave the required signal, at which
the woman became so nervous that she
could not light the lamp. and told him to 60
away. and she would see him tomorrow,
and he should have S1OOO. The officers,
knowing of the plot, were on the scene,
and the man was arrested, and has made
full confession of the whole affair.
a reporter called upon Mr.. Belts to-day
In company with Officer Volk. "At first"
said he, al could not believe what the
officers and others told me about the plot of
that woman against my life, but 1 now
have indubitable evidence to that
effect and I am fully convinced
of the fact, but 1 wish you would
say that I shall not under any circum-
stances enter into a prosecution against her,
for it is a matter that l wish settled, If
possible, quietly"
Mrs. Belts was placed under arrest and
is now under guard at her home. 1t is sus-
pected by many that Mr.. Belts laid a trap
to catch his wife and that ne succeeded.
