Because of Il woman John and David

Ii seems that the girl had been en-.
gagged to marry John Warris, but with
ont giving reason she Tilted him a
week later urd wedded David War

REVISED DIPLOMATIC REGULATIONS.
A Paragraph Inserted Prohibiting the
Making ct Speeches on Political Mat
ters-It is Tacitly Indorsed
by the President.

New YORK, Jan, l1,-A Herald Wash.
ington special says: Secretary Olney,
in an indirect manner has rebuPed
Ambassador Bayatd for the political
speeches that the diplomat made in
Great Britain.
The state department recently re-
vised the diplomatic regulations, and
Secretary Olney took advantage to
write Il provision and insert in
the regulations prohibiting speeches
upon political matters by dip
lomatic epresentatiYes OF the
United States Secretary Olney
was moved to this action, it is
said as a result of Ambassador Bay
ards speeches in England. The secre-
tary of state has always deplored Mr.,
Blyard's manner of so freely discuss
ing political matters, aud it is even
said that if he had been given author
! ity in the premises he would have
specially instructed the Uuited States
| representatives in London not to speak
in public in regard to politics.
President Cleveland, however has
always been friendly to Ambassador
Bayard, and he did not care to wound
that officials feelings by directly rep
rimanding him. lie therefore declined
to take any action whatever. Secre-
tary Olney still had chance to show
his displeasure and he showed it when
the diplomatic regulations were re-
vised.
The old regulations contained a para
graph politely intmating to members
of the diplomatic corps of the United
States that it was not desirable for
them to publicly refer TO political mat
ters, and with the exception of Am
bassador Bayard, they have obeyed
the intimation. The new regulations
prohibits speaking on political sub
jects.
The revised regulations were laid
before the president and his attention
was specifically drawn to this para
graph He declined to change it, how.
ever, and it is not believed Am bassador
Bayard or any other official will in the
future dare to violate so rigid an in
struction of tho department,

EDWARD j. IVORY.


| LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE case of Ed
ward j. Ivory, alias Bell, the alleged
! Irish American dynamite conspirator,
who was arrested in Glasgow on Sep
tember 13, and subsequently brought
! here, was heard in the Central Grim
inal court (Old Bailey for the first
time, the previous hearings having
taken place in the Bow street police
court.
After Ivory was formally arraigned
the recorder, Sir Charles Hall, charged
the grand jury, asking that that body
give their most careful attention to
the case, which was one of the highest
| Importance. The charge against Ivory,
he said, was that of having conspited
with lyman, Kearney and Haines to
destroy life and property with dynaa
mite. The jury, in following the
movements of the conspirators,
would find remarkable chain of
evidence linking Ivory with his
alleged associates. The recorder
then described the evidence which con-
nectcd Ivory with the other conspira-
tors up to the time he was arrested.
| The letters and documents found in
his possession when he was taken into
custody clearly showed the character
of the plot in which he and his associ-
ates were engaged. Having due re-
gard for all the circumstances of the
case, he said in conclusion, the grand
| jury would doubtless feel it to be their
duty to find a true bill against the
