TN M,nAUGHLIN,s FAVOR.
Although Sentenced to Prison He Has Been
 Granted Stay.

1 New York, June 19.-DistTict Attor- ney Fellows announced in the court of oyer and terminer this morning, where l Inspector William Mclaughlin was brought for sentence before Judge Bar rett, that the police commissioners at a meeting last evening had reinstated the inspector It was considered very material by the defense as to whether Mclaughlin should be sentenced as a police inspector or as a private citizen.
 Police Inspector Mclaughlin was sen tenced to two years and six months in Sing Sing prison. A stay of a week was allowed him in which to arrange his af- fairs.
 Colonel James F. Mclaughlin made a strong appeal for clemencyp and asked that the penitentiary be made the place of confinement. Judge Barrett said that he had taken everything into con sideration and thought that as far as the place of confinement went 1t would make no difference. On hearing the sentence Mclaughlin turned very pale
 After sentence was passed and judg- ment entered Edward E. Mccall, one of counsel for defendant, applied to Jus tice William J. Gaynor of the supreme court, who was holding a circuit court at Newburg, and in the midst of trlat of case, for an order requiring the district attorney to show cause on Sat- urday why Mclaughlin should not be granted a certificate of reasonable doubt as to whether Judgment should stand. Such a certificate operates as a stay, pending an appeal. Judge Gaynor grant ed the order to show cause and granted an intermediate stay until the applica- tion should be heard and decided.
 The order was applied for upon an affidavit alleging that numerous errors were committed during the trial

A radical deputy spoke in favor of amnesty to political offenders, whereupon Premier Crispi de- clared that the government would pro- pose the kings mercy should extend to peasants and others who had been misled, but certainly not to the leaders of the revolt. The utterance was yocif- erously applauded by the majority. x
 When the applause had subsided Sig- nor Crispi attempted to continue his re- marks, but was interrupted by cries of all sorts from the radicals. Soma members of the majority reproached the radicals for their conduct and for a time there was a violent exchange of invective. A number of deputies de- scended to the center. which soon be- came packed. A struggle followed, in which many blows were struck and the sitting had to be suspended. The president ordered the galleries cleared and everybody to be excluded from the chamber who were called there.
 A deafening uproar followed, which continued fifteen minutes. Finally orr der was restored, and the sitting was resumed. The president severely re- buked the, disorderly deputies. and an- nounced that he should enforce rigorous measures if such unseemly conduct was again indulged in.

A representative of large interests in St. Louis and San Francis co bonds said this afternoon:
 This encouragement by the Atchison evidently meant that they intended to acquire the Frisco road as the bonds of which the Atchlson has by this trans action obtained the possession were ille- galy issued to it and the resumption of the possession of these bonds lays the Atchison committee open to serious att tack by the bona fide four per cent.

CUPID BREAKS LOOSE AGAIN.

Open air weddings are the style
now, and one was celebrated IN
hlngwood last week. The happy
groom was the one we spoke of in
our last issue as having trouble to
raise the fee to procure the neces-
sary writ of attachment. lie finally
raised it and got the death warrant,
and the next formality was to ne.
gotiate with minister TO execute
the sentence and "wait till Satur-
day for his fee." The preacher
Or. Elliott) said he had quit that
kind of business long ago, as he
had found out that if they didn't
pay when the ceremony took place,
they forgot all about it. The pros
pective victim went away and re-
turned that evening with the
"blushing BRIDE" who has been a
grass widow" long ago to get
pretty well cured of any verdancy
on the subject. They approached
the back door and called the Doctor
out and stated their desire to be
hitched up in double harness to the
matrimonial merry-go- round. :"
They were invited in the house, but
said they "hadn't time, and it
wasn't worth WHILE" and to go
ahead with the splicing, which the
preacher did, standing in the back
door and the happy couple out in
the yard, with the blue sky above
and the green sward below, holding
each others hands, "two souls with
but single thought Ito get dou-
bled) and two hearts that palpitated
as one." The birds sang in the
trees and the fragrance of the early
flowers floated on the evening breeze,
while the words that made her him
and him her and both of them them
fell upon the balmy air of spring.
Sentence being passed the happy
groom and prospective "boss of the
ranch handed the minister two
half dollars, one for his wife and
one for himself, and they departed
so full of bliss and untried domes-
tic felicity that the trees refused to
leave, while their limbs danced in
delight, and even the "johnny.
lump-ups' increased their jumps
in their glee.
