A NUNCIO FOR AMERICA.

The Conference of Archbishops Deliber-
ated Upon the Advisability of the Pope's
Sending Diplomatic Representative to
Washington After the Inauguration of
Cleveland.
NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-Profound secrecy
again reigned in the vicinity of Archbishop
Corrigan's house to-day. The Catholic con-
ference met at 10 A. NJ. and adjourned for
lunch at 1 P. NJ. Promptly at o'clock in
the afternoon 13 of the prelates convened in
a session which lasted until $50. 1t is now
stated that preliminary address will be
given to the public at the conclusion of
these ecclesiastical deliberations, but Father
Lavelle is not prepared to say when it would
be ready The parochial school question is
under consideration. A leading clerical said
to-day to reporter:
l notice that the newspapers have neg
lected to state one of the principal topics to
be discussed by the conference, viz: The
advisab bility OF placing at Washington duly
For many years American statesmen have
disagreed upon the question of this Govern
ment recognizing the authority of a Papal
Nuncio 1t has been held that If the Presf-
dent should receive as one OF his diplomatic
family representative of the Pope, such
action might be construed as a recognition
of the Pope's claim of temporal sovereignty.
There is a likelihood that, following the
Mgr. Sareln may be induced to bring it to
crisis by reporting to the Vatican that af-
ter the Inauguration OF Grover Cleveland,
steps should be taken looking to the ap-
believe thatn international complications
can possibly grow out OF such action.

RED BUD, ILL. Nov. .17.-At $3.50 o'clock
this morning tornado swept over this viii
lage, destroying 30 houses, killing a boy,
Jacob Cabe, and injuring some Is other per-
sons. Two churches, the Town Hall, jail
and newspaper Office were among the build
ings leveled. The wind wave came in the
midst of a driving rain storm from the
south, and cleared a path 200 yards wide
through the town.
Where last night stood beautiful little
city there is to-day a scene of desolation.
Houses, barns, fences and orchards are
leveled. As soon as the more fortunate
people of the city recovered from the first
shock, efforts were at once directed to car
ing for the injured They were taken to
homes of those who had escaped the storm
and cared for One house was literally
lifted from the ground, and scarce a vestige
of it left, while a neighboring residence
seemed to have escaped with comparatively
little injury.
A dispatch from ST. Louis says: To-day
was the hottest, coldest, driest and wettest
day this community has had since Jerry
Rusk began rain-making The temperature
rose steadily from o'clock, being at that
time 46O, until 1890, when it reached $40.
The humidity was great. At II o'clock it
began to fall, and reached $50 at $780, 1t
was a typical cyclonic day. Wind blew at
the rate of 43 miles an hour. Before dark
it was moving along fast enough to keep
cool.

ENGLAND's FARM QUESTIONS,
Gladstone Compelled to Adopt Some
Scheme of Land Legislation

Gladstone Compelled to Adopt Some
Scheme of Land Legislation
LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE rapid growth of
The agitation among the farming classes,
and their demands for legislation which
may palliate the depression in q agricul-
ture, have precipitated Government action
in this direction. Among the Cabinet COM
mittees preparing measures for the next
session of Parliament, the latest appointed
is that on agrarian bills 1t is not likely
that the Government will take definite ac-
tion until after the National Conference on
Agriculture has shown what the majority
of the farmers delegates are inclined to
consider the best legislative course to take.
Nothing can be expected from this COM
mittee which will in the least SAVIOR of pro-
lection. Nevertheless, the desperate con-
dition of the British farmers, combined
with the exceeding readiness of the Con-
servative opposition to offer whatever in
ducements will bring the farmer and agri-
cultural laborer to their side, will compel
Mr.. Gladstone into proposing, not merely
makeshift, but some really crucial RENE
dies Mr.. Morley is understood to favor
the creation of land courts in Great Britain,
the abolition of titles and such extension
of the small holdings act as will make the
acquisition of land easier.

LOOKS LIKE SUICIDE

F. j. Dhorhauar Supposed to Have Taken
His Life With Poison.
F. J. Dhorhauar died yesterday after
noon at his home, 100 Climax street, and
the evidence seems to point to a case of
suicide. The facts so, far as they could be
learned by Coroner's Clerk Brush, are that
the deceased had spent IL years out of the
last % in the workhouse. On
Monday last Dhorha uar was re-
leased from that institution after
serving 80 days sentence, and going to
the home of his wife demanded some under
clothes. These were refused him, as his
wife wanted nothing to do with him. Yes
terday morning he was brought to his wife's
home in the patrol wagon, and as Mrs.
Dhorhauer thought her husband was drunk
she refused to admit him to the house. He
then sat down on the steps, and after time
wandered back into the yard and into an
outbuilding.
Two hours later his wife went out and
found him in a dying condition. DR.. G. B.
Sweeney was summoned, and as the man
had been seen to have small phial in his
hand and had purged green substance the
case was diagnosed as poisoning Dior
hauar fingered about two hours and then
died. The Coroner will investigate to-day.

osition for international Agreement.
LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE Indian Currency
Committee, which, it was supposed, was
expediting its decisions with a view to in
fuencing the International Monetary Con-
ference, adjourned to-day until the confer
ence is over. This unexpected step is at
tributed to design of the committee to as
sist the British delegates in eyading dis
cussion on the position of the currency in
India
Concerning the instructions of the Amer
ican delegates it is learned that no hard
and fast proposals will be presented by
them. A general statement advocating an
international agreement will be laid before
the conference and this will lead to debate.
The delegates anticipate that the result
herring to the proposition for an lnterna
tionai agreement. Doubtless dissentient
reports will be prepared.

'It is the use of the Carlsbad
Waters that has improved me, more
than my trip abroad. I have gained

TILLNAN DRAWS A GUN

To Annihilste q Brother Member Of the
Alliance Who Was Opposed to Him
Blood Nearly Shed at Yesterdays Meet
ing-The Sessions Growing Hotter and
Hotter.
MEMPHIS, Nov. 1Z-[Special THE ex-
ecutive sessions of the National Alliance
grow hotter and hotter, and 9 free fight
seemed imminent this morning. The Till
man imbroglio bobbsd up first thing again
this morning Dr. McCune arose to ques-
tion of privilege. He said it had bee n
charged that he was q party to Tillman's
distribution of Democratic literature, and
he wanted to clear himself
Mr.. Scott, of Kansas, got up and inter-
rupted McCune to remark that he hoped no
man would be made mark of by any act of
the convention because of party fealty. Mr.
Scott went on to say it was rumored that
Tillman would be substantially rewarded
by the incoming administration for his
martyrdom here Mann Page then stirred
tried and convicted, and that the insinua-
tions of the brother from Kansas were in
bad taste and wholly out Of order.
DR.. McCune managed to finish finally and
then Tillman got the floor and absolved Nc
Cune from all completely in the distribution
of campaign literature. Looking squarely
at Scott, and pointing at him, he denounced
him as a coward and a,scoundrel. Scott
said that TIllman was WRONG, for he (Scott)
had called no names.
"Did you not mean me, sir?" demanded
Tillman, angrily, and making for Scott,
who defantly replied that he would let the
convention decide whom he meant. Till
man bestowed a few more epithets
on Scott, and finally attempts were
made to draw guns, and it
looked as though blood would flow.
Tillman's brother and father-in-law were
there to back him up, but after a stormy
scene matters quieted and business pro-
ceeded. Tillman. however, is legislated
out of Office, the director generalship of the
literary bureau being abolished.

ONLY TWO CASES A DAY.
The Triennial Assessm ent Hearings VIII
Run Six Months at the Present Rate.

The Triennial Assessm lent Hearings VIII
Run Six Months at the Present Rate.
The appeal on the valuation of the Nc
Ginnis property on Fifth avenue, in the
Fourteenth ward, was the first matter taken
up at the hearing before Commissioner Beal
at City Hall yesterday. A number of wit
nesses testified to the value Of the property,
one placing it somewhat under the assess
sor's figures. Agent Kelly admitted he
had expressed his belief that the assessor s
valuation was fair. Attorney Shields testl-
flied to being agent for the property with
full authority to act He had received no
notice of such rehearing in the case as
claimed by the assessors and did not appear
to get a reduction on the assessment. Con-
siderable other testimony was taken on the
case, after which the appeal on valuation
and classification of property on Lawn
street and Fifth avenue owned by the Nc
Ginnis heirs was taken up. 1t consists OF
N acres, assessed as worth S34, $40, part of
it rural. An acre is good level ground, and
the balance deep hole. The heirs think
the valuation 81, 500 too high. and want 1t
all assessed as rural
The efforts of bothlsdes were to show the
truth of their claims, but the honors were
about evenly divided. The appeal of Lydia
McCutcheon, on Neville street, consumed
the balance of the day. The property was
originally assessed at S13,O 900, was then re-
duced to S11, ,725 and then to 5000 1t is
assessed as full taxable. The appellant
wants the valuation reduced and the classi-
fcation made rural.

LABOR WINS a VICTORY.

The London Building Trades Bring Their
Employers to Terms.
LONDON, Nov. 17.-All the London
building trades, including carpenters, ma
sons, bricklayers, plasterers, painters and
builders laborers, have won a substantial
trades union victory. For no less than six
months last year they contended by strike
and lockout with the Master Builders Asso-
citation, the different unions taking the men
out in sections.
Under final arrangement with the Mas
ters' Association they have now obtained
48-hour week, which comes into operation
during November. The reduction in the
working day does not affect raise in wages
obtained during the big lockout, so that,
practically, an immense number of men are
getting better wages and fewer hours.

THE QUEEN AND GLADSTONE.
Further Proof That Her Majesty Likes
Lord Salisbury Better.

Further Proof That Her Majesty Likes
Lord Salisbury Better.
LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE present series of
Cabinet Councils, which the Ministerialists
hope will conclude early next week, have
been unexpectedly prolonged, owing to un-
looked for complexities that arose in con-
nection with the home rule and other bills.
The Cabinet, upon the conclusion OF the
present series of meetings, will not again
assemble until after Christmas Mr.. Glad
stone will visit the Queen at Windsor Cas-
tie. This will be the first visit the Prime
Minister has paid to Her Majesty since he
went to Osborne House to kiss her hands
upon his appointment to office.
Lord Salisbury has been invited to visit
Windsor Castle after Mr. Gladstone. This
shows a marked difference in the treat
ment accorded the leaders of the Liberal
and Conservative parties. During the
period that Lord Salisbury was In Office,
Mr. Gladstone was never invited to meet,
the Queen. A movement is on foot in the
Tory party to further the union between
Conservatives and Liberal Unionists BY
admitting the latter to the Carlton and
other heretofore exclusively Tory clubs.

marked: "Of course. we as laboring men
sympa;hize with the men locked out at
Homestead. The assembly will take what
ever action it sees fit in the matter"
1t is probable that before the end of the
session the Homestead locked out men will
receive what may be termed an official
recognition by the Knights of Labor. Tho
only thing that would be apt to prevent
such action is the fact that the men at
Homestead belong to what is practically
rival organization-the American Fedora
tion of Labor-but the sympathy of man
for man will probably overcome it in that
regard

His Lawyers Tardy Claims Cause a Re-
vuIsion of Feeling in His Favor.
WHEELING, Nov. III Special Pitts
burg carpenters have put up the scaffold
and gallows on which William Maier will
be executed tomorrow. During the past
two DAYS there has been strange revulslon
of public sentiment in the mans favor,
caused, no doubt, by the statement of his
counsel that new evidence has been dis
covered which, if it had been available at
the trial, would have acquitted the prisoner.
But this statement comes too late to delay
the murderer's execution. Governor Fleming
stoutly refusing to reconsider his announced
decision not to interfere.
Maier's counsel say they have been hamp-
cred by lack of funds for absolutely neces-
sary expenses connected with the trial of
the case, and that if there had been money
enough to pay the expenses of so doing, the
Austrian Minister would have been ap-
pealed to in his behalf. Preparations for
the execution are complete. The prisoner
has lost his appearance of stolid Indifference,
and is dying many deaths of anticipation.

TRENTON, N. j., Nov 17.-Judge Wood
ruff, of the Mercer County Court, to-day
censured the grand jury for failing to re-
turn indictments against the politicians
charged with bribery at the polls on cleo
tion day. The jury made its final return,
and Judge Woodruff said he was aware that
no indictments of this character had been
found. He reminded the jurors of the
solemnity of their oath and of the duty
that had been expected of them. The pros
ecutor of the pleas had informed him that
the evidence against certain persons was
strong enough to warrant their Indictment
In view of this state Of things the Court
sent the jury back for half an hour. At the
expiration of that period it came into court
again and announced that it had no new
bills to present John H. Scudder. of the
Democratic State Committee, was foreman
