ENGLAND AND CHINA,

Hereafter British officers Can not
Serve in the Chinese Navy.
LONDON, Aug. 21.-The British govern
ment has notified the government of China
that from this time forth no British Off
GERS will be allowed to serve in the Chinese
navy. The British government has taken
this step on account of the refusal of the
Chinese authorities to furnish an explana-
tion Of the insult of a Chinese officer in
hauling down the flag OF Admiral Lang
while that British officer was in command
of the Chinese north coast squadron at
Hong Kcng in 1890.
Admiral Lang resigned his commission in
the Chinese navy in June In 1896, giving as
bis reason for resigning that the Chinese
officers OF the squadron were insubordinate
Later, as result of Admiral Lang's rcsigna~
tion, the Chinese government declared that
1t would never again intrust real authority
in the navy to any foreigners.

in which he was an officer in the confeder-
ate army, and TO this wound aud the great
exposure TO which he was subjected was
attributed his constant ailments during

His death, however. was entirely unex-
pected by his associates. by whom be was

He Valves an Examination and is
Committed Wit hout Bail.
HANOVER, n H., Aug. 21.-Judge Cobb
of the police court, with Attorney General
Barnard and Solicitor Mitchell, accompa-
MED by citizens. went to Almy's room in
the Wheelock house this morning to
conduct the preliminary examination
of the murderer. Almy, In reply to
Attorney General Barnard's questions as
to how he felt, said he had not had any sleep
and had been in pain all night.
The complaint of murder, which was in
the customary form, was signed by N. A.
Frost; aud was read to AlmY as he lay on
his cot. When asked to plead, he hesitated
and said: II don't know what to do"
Turning to Sheriff Foster, near neigh
Dor of the Warden family, with whom he
was we'll acquainted, he inquired: "What
would you do, Henryp
Foster replied; II don't know, Frank"
ADVISED BY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
Attorney General Barnard then suggested
that it was always best to plead mot
guilty" and IN that way his plea stands res
corded. He waived an examination and
was committed without bail.
It was learned from the physicians that
the pain of which Almy complained was
more from apples, Of which he had SO
ravenously eaten. and which tempted him
from bis hiding place in Warden's barn
Wednesday night, than from his wounds.
Though he did not sleep. he was apparently
much rested and he looks brighter.

THE PORTSMOUTH REVIEW.

Nothing Lacking, However, IN Honor
and GraIificstion of France.
Copyright, 1891, By the NJ Y. Associated Pressl
LONDON, Aug. 21.--The adverse weather
to-day partially marred the Portsmouth
review, but as far as the queen was able to
ensure it, nothing was lacking to honor
and crafty France. The queen sacrificed
a portion Of her Highland holiday pur-
posely TO witness the review, and, further,
compelled the attendance of the lords Of the
admiralty, who wanted to spend the recess
abroad. The Portsmouth authorities IN
Cured tho anger Of the lingo" press by
inviting the French officers to inspect our
latest inventions in naval warfare under
the guidance of officers competent to ex-
plain their uses The only possible cause
for dissatisfaction that the French govern
mont could entertain is the absence
of Lord Salisbury, which deprives the
function of the foreign Office approval.
The radicals declare that Lord Salisbury
declined thus openly to display a friend
ship which might be interpreted as q disre-
gard of the dreibund.
THE FRENCH CREWS ARE DISAPPOINTED

VIII Suffer Loss.
MONTGOMERY, ALA. Aug. 21.-A few
minutes after 10 O'Clock noon to-day Presi-
dent Hail of the Farley National Bank
posted q notice on its doors that the bank,
by vote OF the directors, had agreed to sus-
pend payment temporarily. The cause was
stated TO be the inability to raise money TO
make good the paper drawn by others, and
discounted by the bank and protested IN
New York.
1t is understood on the streets that tha
paper is lot Of drafts, amounting to about
100000, on New York parties, held by
President Voolfolk OF the Alabama Ter
minal and Improvement Company OF this
place. The bank has been handling these
drafts for some time, aud they were always
honored before. The banks deposits are
about $65, 900.
The president of another bank is quoted
as saying that none of the Farley Bank
paper is held here by the other banks, and
that the suspension is temporary and that
the matter will be soon arranged, no one
suffering a money loss
EVERYTHING SECURED.
The Farley National Bank, which tenn
porarily suspended to-day has ample
security for the papers that were protested
in New York this week. The papers were
cashed here by the bank, aud the parties
making the papers gave good collateral for
double the amount. A large part OF the
collateral is in mortgages on real
estate. There is enough in the bank
IN cash and securities to pay
the depositors dollar for dollar,
and no one apprehends the loss of cent.
This is in addition to the collaterals cover
ing protested notes. The suspension caused
no other trouble here, and everything is
moving smoothly with confident belief
that the bank will be In position TO re-
sumo at an early day. A bank examiner ia
expected tomorrow TO take charge Of the

PARNELL AND THE FUND.
TIE DESIRE OF THE TWO FAC
TIONs TO CONTROL 1T.

Parnell Netting Out the Same Treat
ment He Received to Dillon and
O'Brien-He Is Fighting an Imoosei-
BILE Battle, However-Ths Tory Press
IN High Glee.
Copyright, 1891, By the N Y. Associated Press }
LONDON, Aug. 21.-Mr. Parnell's letter
admitting the inaccuracy Of the amount
attributed to Mr. Dillon drawing from the
evicted tenants Efund has brought to q
pause the wretched controversy in the Irish
commoner's ranks, which really centers in
o desire Of each side to obtain control of the
Paris fund. Mr.. Parnell. brought to BAY,
is melting out the same treatment to Messrs.
Dillon and O'Brien which he has already
meted out to the Healyites and liberal
leaders, but he is
FIGHTING AN IMPOSSIBLE BATTLE.
Nobody doubts the scrupulous integrity
of Mr.. Morley, and on the question of ve-
racity, Mr.. Parnell, with his record of the
widest statements, stands no chance of
credence. However, he still knows the
weak points in his enemies armor aud COM
pels them to vince and take refuge in ans
biguities. This unedifying spectacle.
which gains undeserved attention, occurr-
ing as it does at the deadest part of the DO
liticsl season, can have but one result, the
destruction of Ireland's chances of home
rule.
THE TORY PRESS IN GLEE.
The tory press and party are delighted
that Mr.. Pnrnell has succeeded in drawing
from Mr.. Gladstone and MIR. Morley an ad-
mission Of anxiety to reach Mr. Parnell
through secret channels. Long leaders in
the tory papers dwell upon the discontinue
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 adhering to the plan Of campaign in
defiance of Rome.
Altogether the position Of the Irish prob-
lem, from whichever side it is viewed, is ex-
trenlely perplexing.
PARNELLIsM DEAD.
The only patent fact is that Parnelism is
dead. The apathy Of the Parnellite organi-
zntion and constant accession of Parnellites

latter organization to instruct its registra-
ton agents for election lists TO make no dis
tlnction between ParEellites and Nc
