The silver boatswain's whistle, with
which John Brown piped orders to his
men while they were at Harper's Ferry.
has been discovered in Washington by
the officers of the Kansas Historical su
ciety. An effort is making to secure the
instrument for the socistv's museum
says the Detroit Free Press. When Johr
Brown gathered his men around Harper
Ferry and began preparations for the
seizure OF the arsenal, he instructed
them, according to the story, to hide
themselves in the mountain forests and
TO refrain from being seen together,
Then he gave them instructions to listen
for their orders each day at sunrise and
sunset which would be piped to them
with the boatswain's whistle. These In.
structions were carried out to the letter
and for some days preceding the attack
on the arsenal the people of Harper's
Ferry heard the mysterious piping from
Browns headquarters. The notes would
be taken up by the nearest OF his fol-
lowers and sent on over the mountains
until the farthest distant of the band
had received the word of the commander
When Brown was captured. the whistle
was taken from him by Lieut. Stewart, Of
the regular army, who afterwards be-
came lieutenant general in the confed-
eracy. Stewart finally gave 1t TO Col

to John Cassin, then a we'll known lawyer

DEVLIh'S SPEECH.


Chicago. March 5.-"An Ireland to be
governed by Irishmen." was the theme
on which Joseph Devlin, member OF par
lament, spoke last night to several hun
dred persons at Music hall in the Fine
Arts building
The occasion was the 125th anniversary
OF the birth OF Robert Emmett and the
celebration was given under the auspices
OF the United Irish societies.
Mr.. Devlin believed that with the force
OF united Irishmen in this country behind

country. The present ministry OF Ireland.
which a year ago had declared that the
landlord and tenants would be permitted
to fight out their differences and then
had thrown the power of England on the

its position. as had ministers OF the past.
The result was bill that would give to
the tillers OF farms the right to own
them and would drive the robbers out"

but the purchasers were not sufficient to
stem the tide which set In against them.
Bravely they fought against the onrush
of orders, but II seemed TO be OF no
avail.
Short sales TO the bears means wind
and expectation. but to the bulls, who
have TO sustain the market prices these
sales mean hundreds or thousands OF doi-
lars. The Sully pool decided 10 stand
from under and allow the market to take
its course. This decision was reached
toward the close OF business yesterday,
and then the real excitement OF the day
began. Thousands OF bales Of cotton
were thrown on the market and panisky
conditions prevailed.
IL looked as II the bottom was about
to drop out OF the market when the chair

The net loss for yesterday I'm the March
option was 81. 30 a bale. for May the loss
was larger. amounting TO $40 and for
