Esopus, N. Y, Aug. 22.-It was
made plain at Rcsemount today that
there is no certainty of Judge Parker
making any speeches in the West, in
connection with his st. Louis trip.
or at any other time or place. The
principle on which Judge Parker will
act in the matter was learned from
an intimate associate of the Judge,
who said:
Judge Parker has no faith in the
utility of speech making for its own
sake, and Will make no speeches any
where for the mere purpose of aD-
pearing in any given locality. He be-
lieved stumping tour by Presiden-
tial candidate to be improper and he
will undertake no such tour. The only
condition upon which he will make
any speech anywhere will be that he
has some definite thing to say and
that he is convinced by his own reason
that some given time and place best
suits the saying of it there and then.
You may say With the utmost conf
dence that under no other conditions
will Judge Parker make any speech
anywhere"
Except for a casual visitor, who in
troduced himself to Judge Parker as
no one at Rosemount yesterday to dis
turb the Sunday quiet. The usual
stream of Sunday sightseers, rather
larger than usual. passed Rosemount
in carriages and on foot, but did not
disturb the Parker family. Judge Par
ker has caused = 10 be understood
that he does not desire excursions or
large parties of visitors to come to
RoSemount on Sundays.
John q. Carlisle Ready to Work.
Former Secretary of the Treasury
John G.. Carlisle is passing the night
at Rosemount. Judge Parker met him
at the station. The judge said tonight
that Mr.. Carlisle had come at his re-
quest to talk over various things per-
tanning to the campaign. Mr.. Carlisle
said he did not know whether he
would take an active part in the cam
paign, but was the disposal of Judge
Parker
With former representative r. w.
Taylor, of Ohio, who was in charge of
the prosecution of Brigham II. Rob-
erts, of Utah, Mr.. Carlisle is associated

Tortured Bull Caused a Panic.

A thrilling and terrible scene took
place at great bull6ght at Marseilles,
France, a day or two ago. Six bulls
had been dispatched, and the immense
audience OF over $4,000 persons were
aroused to a tremendous pitch OF en-
thusiasm. A seventh animal was then
let into the ring. Goaded TO fury, the
bull made clean sweep OF the plcador',
dashed mady across the ring, cleared the
barrier at a single bound and plunged its
horns into the body Of one Of the spec
tators, mulilating him terribly and kill
ing him on the spot. Three picadors
pursued the animal, and pierced il with
their lance-. Mad with pain the bull
suddenly turned and gored one of them
to death Shrieks Of horror rang through
the arena and panic seized the terrified
audience. Hundreds rushed wildly foi
the exits, and scores OF those who fell
by the way were trampled underfoot.
More than a score sustained dangerous
injuries. BY this time three of the
matadors had succeeded with great
difficulty, aud at no small risk, in kill
ing the tortured bull, The stampede
among the audience ceased, though the
excitement was still intense, and the
mayor rose in his place and ordered the
performance to go on. The rest of the pre-.
ceedings, however, was mere orgy OF
butchery, 70 fewer than seven horses
being practically torn to pieces by the
remaining bulls. Luis Artiego, the
Seville toreador, was finally declared the
victor. He had despatched FIVE bulls.
Ringing cheers greeted him as he bowed
his acknowledgements to an audience
which included n - IS 'N" LADDERS nj
society in the city.
