Liberal members said to-day: I've eX-

seen since the discussion of the reform
bill in 1882" The Ministerials, however
continue to be confident OF weathering
the divisions on the address, and are even
hopeful of passing the home rule bill.
Another trouble before the Government
IS the renewed agitation of the Irish ten
ant farmers for an abatement OF the ju-
dlcial rents fixed four years ago. The
tenants declare that the fall in prices of
livestock and farm products generally
makes revision of the rents imperative.
4he temporary clause of the Act OF 1887
empowered the Land Commission to re-
duce the rents in a ratio to the decline in
agricultural products. The clause was
lor only three years, and expired at a
time when it would do the most good.
The Government will ask Parliament to
restore the clause exactly as it was.

CHEYENNE (Wyo.), Dec. "a bomb
shell was exploded to-day in the ranks of
the Republicans when Governor-elect
John Z. Osborne went to the Capitol
building, took the oath of office and took
possession of the Governors office. The
oath of Office was administered by a
Notary Public in the presence of A. L.
New, Chairman of the Democratic State
Committee, and half a dozen personal
friends.
Immediately after taking the Office
Governor Osborne issued a proclamation,
saying: Having been duly elected by
the qualified voters of the State of Wyom-
ing, and there being no Board of State
Canvassers authorized to canvass the re-
turns and declare the result of said cleo
ton for Governor, [ have legally quail
fed as Governor and I call on all good
citizens to aid me in enforcing the laws"
Governor Osborne notified the Secre-
tary of State, Auditor and Treasurer that
the canvass of the State vote would be
commenced on Monday next. These
officials, however, refuse to recognize his
authority and will not act with him on
the canvassing board. They claim the
action of Governor Osborne will compel
an immediate canvass of the vote of the
State and the result will be in their favor.

The Identity of the Young Woman

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 2.-The identity of
the young woman giving her name as
Lottie Anderson Barnard, who commit
ted suicide at the Hotel del Coronado on
Monday night, is still unsoived. Inquiry
has been received from Miss May Wyllie
of Detroit, Mich, for full description.
The lady having registered at the hotel
as coming from that city, an attempt is
being made through the Farmers and
Merchants Bank of Hamburg, Iowa, to
ascertain the connection existing between
the dead woman and G. L. Allen of that
place, who has not answered the teIe-
gram sent to him, though having pre-
vious to the death of Mrs. Barnard re-
sponded to her demands for money by
telegraphing that her draft would be hon
ored for S25. a key found among the
girls effects partially fits the lock of one
of the trunks which arrived at the local
Santa Fe depot from Omaha, via Denver,
about Thanksgiving Day, when she
made her appearance here, but permis-
sion to open it was withheld until the
proper authorization from the division
baggage agent could be secured. This
will be obtained tomorrow, when it is
hoped some means of identification will
be unearthed.

The Order Revnked.

PITTsBURG, Dec. 2.-After closing the
disorderly houses in this city the order
was revoked by Chief Brown of the De-
partment of Public Safety. The action
was the result of a conflict between
Mayor Gourley and Chief Brown. 1t
seems probable the women who inhabit
houses of fill-repute will continue without
further molestation. The announcement
that the time for closing indefinitely was
postponed caused Indignation, and will
be denounced at the usual Monday meet
ing OF the clergy. This afternoon num-
Der of ministers called upon the Mayor,
and decided TO appoint a committee to
provide shelter for those who were re-
pentant and desire to reform.

CRUEL TREATMENT

SAN Francisco, Dec. 2.-The Morning
Call will publish tomorrow sensational
story that charges of extreme cruelty
will be preferred before Admiral Ir-
win, Commandant of the Mare Island
Navy Yard, against Commander Thomas
Nelson of the United States steamship
Adams. Executive Officer Adams and
Master alarms Heating are also in
cluded in the charges.
1t is alleged that, acting under Com
mander Nelson's orders, they so cruelty
treated an apprentice boy named August
MotZick that he is dangerously i'll and
liable to die from the effects of his treat
ment at their hands. Motzick, who is a
small-sized German boy, II years old,
shipped as an apprentice on the Adams
prlor to her cruise to Behring Sea last
spring from the Boys and Girls Aid
Society of this city, where he had a good
reputation.
The cal says that after the ship had
been in Behring Sea some time the sail
ors were denied fresh water for washing
purposes, contrary to the articles they
signed when they shipped. Water was
allowed to the Chinese servants of the Of
uceIS, ana Ln6 OIucerS themselves re-
ceived a double allowance. The men
were afraid to use salt water to wash in,
for fear of scurvy and the general effect
on their health, so they did not wash at
all, and soon were in filthy condition
and covered with vermin
Finally Motzick was sent forward as
committee to ask the commander for
fresh water. The commander asked the
boy what he wanted water for, and the
boy said to clean himself with. There
upon Nelson ordered Executive Officer
Adams to take the boy out and scrub
him. Adams turned the apprentice over
to Master-at-Arms keatng, who, with
squad of men, tied the boy down and
scrubbed his back with canvas, sand and
salt water until it bIed. They then
dreDched him with salt water. As a re-
suit of this treatment the boys back was
in a terrible condition. Instead of getting
well, running sores formed on mis- back,
and his condition became critical.
The Adams is on her way to San Fran
| cisco from Behring Sea and is expected
here in a few days. The story was
| brought down by sailors of the United
States steamship Mohican, which arrived
short time ago. The Cdu says that at
first the story was not believed By it, and
1t was thought to be merely a sailors
yarn. Careful investigation, however,
confirms the story. The fact that charges
have been preferred against Nelson and
his officers have been kept secret, and il
! Is not known who preferred them.

Monthly Report From the Agricultural
Department.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-The monthly
weather crop bulletin shows November
slightly colder than usual in the greater
portion of the country east of the Rocky
Mountains, with deficiency in the tenn
perature generally throughout the North
ern States, and as far south as North Car
olina. More than the usual amount of
rain has fallen in the Middle Atlantic
States, Southern New England, the
northern portion of the Gulf States, Ten
nessee, Eastern Texas, Illinois, Indiana.
Michigan and California. Unusually
heavy rains in the North Pacific States
resulted in great loss to railroads and ag-
riculture. The weather has been favor
able throughout the winter wheat region,
and the recent rains doubtless benefited
greatly late-sown wheat, but the ground
continues very hard throughout the
spring wheat States. Contemplating is
about completed. Some slight damage
was done late cotton in the Central States
by heavy rains. The weather in Southern
California is favorable, and reports show
the orange crop ripening as well as could
be desired, the fruit coloring fast.

Father Corrlgan to Stand Trial for
Opposing Cahenslyism.
New YORK, Dec. Rev. Father Pat
rick Corrigan of Hoboken announces, in
an open letter to the editor Of the Free
Hsa1a's Journal, that he has been sum
moned by Bishop Wigger to stand trial
for letters written by Father Corrigan
''in opposition to the anti-American spirit
of the late German Catholic Congress
held in New York, and its attack upon
the public schools"
In the course Of his statement the father
continues; Il opposed two things: first,
the attempt to Germanize America by
means OF the church, and second, the de-
nunciation of the public schools as
denominations My criticism was sub
tantially that which appeared in the edi-
torials of some of the great dailies, one of
which concluded leading article in these
words: What we are justified in saying
is that they who took part in those pro-
ceedings are bad citizens, and dangerous
i'll proportion as they are powerful /
criticised the Congress as a body. The
Congress insulted American intelligence
by denouncing the public schools, the
most cherished institution of the land
as 'abominations.' 1t insulted the Amer
lean church by denouncjng some of our
distinguished prelates. do not speak of
Bishop Wigger in his capacity as Bishop
of the diocese, but simply as a member of
that German Congress, over which he
presides every year, outside of his own
English-speaking flock. My opposition
to Cahenslyism meets the appreciation of
Americans generally-judging from the
unanimity ofthe press, daily and weekly,
without distinction as to politics or re-
ligion."
Archbishop Corrigan and Bishop Wig
ger were not on speaking terms for years
ill Cahenslyism united them against
Bishop Ireland and Cardinal Gibbons.
Father Corrigan says in conclusion:

coming trial, and when ask ed reason
