SCORES OF DIVORCES. ;-/ Five Chicago Judges Engaged in Separating Unhappy Married People. Their Entire Time Yesterday Put in in Hearing Sorrow- ful Tales. At Least 100 People Secure Freedom Through the Court's Action. The Whipping Post in Dele- ware~The Anarchists Or- dered Executed. Special to the Globe. Chicago, Sept. There must be a marked absence of coleric in the at- mosphere of Chicago when the divorce industry is not up to the notch, com- mercially speaking. The demand for this modern essential to true happiness was twice as strong as was the supply. A number of lawyers who make divorce their specialty, it is said, owing to the tendency to bull the mar- ket, have pooled their issues and di- vorces can be obtained upon the install- ment plan; that is to say, the divorces proper are not obtained in this manner, but the lawyers' fees are paid thusly. A statute recently passed, having the protection of Chicago's leading indus- try well in view, makes all unpaid fees thus incurred a charge upon the prop- erty of the husbands which follow. To- day there were 100 applications for di- vorces before the court and it was not a good day for divorces either. The five judges. Shepard, Garnett, Jamison, Col- lins and Horton took the matter well in hand but their heroic efforts succeeded in granting only fifty divorces. Here- after the clerks and bailiffs of these di- vorce mills will be called in requisition and each man there WILL HAVE FULL TOWER to jprant divorces which will have the word "Chicago*' stamped upon them as a test of their absolute genuineness. , Mrs. Adelia Kelly made her appearance before Judge Horton. She is an attract- ive blonde and she charged her husband John with everything excepting arson. They were married in 18S1 and have two adolescent Kellys. Decree. Lawson Lamb was not all his name implied. He was a horse dealer, drank tangle- foot and clubbed his wife Lizzie. An- other decree. Chauncy Cochran claimed that his wife Maggie had forgotten the seventh commandment- They had been married only since May, but Chauncy was satisfied. Each can marry again. Frank W. Doud had a wife and three children when he married Sophia. He had overlooked this little circumstance, but Judge Horton promptly divorced the couple. Benjamin 11. Lanpher, a Wagner sleeping car employe, married Annie Barton in Cincinnati, in 1885. He took her to St. Louis and this, together with his other acts of cruelty was enough to give Annie what she wanted. The most in- teresting case before Judge Collins was that ofLena Struevy against John, her- husband, who was arrested for attempt- ing to shoot George Kuhl because he was playing assistant husband to his wife. John had filed a suit before the usilade of Kuhl took place and let the matter drop. Mrs. Struevy. however, yesterday obtained a divorce on her cross bill. Because Mr. Jones . . HAD KILLED A MAN and only obtained two years for it his wife, Cassie, was granted a divorce. Herman Sass was charged with deser- tion by his wife, Berthina, and a decree was promptly dealt out to her. For the" same reason Nannie Poole obtained a decree against John L. Cruelty and together with a love for whisky on the part of Albert Rupert gave his wife, Katie, a divorce. They were mar- ried at Joliet in 1882, and both may be Joliet. Decrees were also granted to Martha E from Charles E. Johnson, and Lizzie Garrett from Alex- ander Garrett for cruelty and desertion. Anna Benton told Judge Garnett that she had been married to Charles Benton for ten years, and during that whole Eeriod Cholly had been Benton making er life miserable. A decree followed. Plain drunkenness was given as the grounds for a divorce by Salvator Conieri against Julia. Nathaniel Ham- mond married Charlotte, his wife, at North Reading, Mass.," away back in 1856. He deserted her in ISB2. Decree. Jennie Woolley stated that Joseph Woolley was a common drunkard, and this entitled her to a divorce. Mary Francis Rosch deserted her Joseph six years ago. He has been patiently await- ing her return, but "she cometh not,"_ he said to Judge Garnett, who Rosched his case to a desired conclusion. Judge Jameson took all the cases tried by him under advisement. Desertion was charged by John Ohl against his wife Honora. The honeymoon of Louis P. and Sofie Knoo LASTED ONE IVRIEF DAY. Louis then left Denmark for America and she hasn't seen him since. James Clowrey placed his faith in Jennie Grey in 1884. , The couple resided in Ansonia, Conn. Two years ago he was basely abondoned. A chronic course of cruelty, inaugurated, by James Mer- wick, gave his wife, Delia, a divorce suit and the custody of one child. Among the cases tried by Judge Shep- ard was the one of Mrs. Eleanor Lith- gow, the wife of an insurance agent. They were married in November, 1885, and they removed to Clinton, 10. Act- ing on the advice of her husband, she returned to her folks, and when she wished to return he firmly, though re- spectfully, told her that she needn't mind, and that he would attempt to stagger through life without her. She has not seen him since. ' Decree." A divorce was granted Helen S. Schmidt from Jacob Schmidt, who was too fond of the wine cup. When inebriated he would inaugurate a pugilistic divertis- ment, in which Helen was always bested. - Criminals Whipped. Wilmington, Del., Sept. 24.—Eleven criminals were publicly whipped in the New Castle jail yard to-day, as follows; John Blackstoue, George Douglass, Robert Shallwood and Bayard Douglass, colored, were whipped. with one hun- dred lashes each for petty thieving, and Alfred Tally, John Stidham and Harry Harper, whites, ten -lashes, and two others with five lashes each. Charles Blake,- the notorious- burglar, was se- verely punished with twenty lashes and an hour in the pillory. THIS CHICAGO. ANARCHISTS.

Chicago, Sept. 24.— Parsons, the dusky wife of the condemned anarchist, was arraigned before Justice Lyon this morning for refusing to comply with a police officer's warning to desist from violating the city ordinance against dis- tributing circulars on the streets. The policeman testified that even on the way to the stat on, she continued the ob- noxious work. In court . Mrs. Parsons assumed the air of a martyr. She claimed the ordinance was a dead letter. '"I hope," she said pleadingly -to the justice, "I hope that you will remember where my husband is, and do with me as you would wish your own wife to be dealt with under similar circum- stances." The justice said he would continue the case until Tuesday, allow- ing Mrs. Parsons to depart on her own recognizance. A large number of the woman's friends were in court. Affray With Smugglers. San Antonio, Tex., Sept. 24.—A posse was sent from the United States marshal's office to Rio Grande City a few days ago to capture a gang of smug- glers who were encamped about fifty miles from Laredo. They found the camp in the brush near the river, and a demand for surrender was answered by a volley from Winchesters. A battle ensued; resulting in the death offour of the smugglers and the capture of the camp and a number of horses. The liv- ing smugglers escaped by stampeding the horses and following through the gap in the line, taking refuge on the Mexi- can side. None of the officers were hurt. A Bloody Feud. Prescott, Ariz., Sept. Under Sheriff Waddell has received word from the Tonto Basin that a feud fight * oc- curred there on the 18th, in which Thomas Graham, Joseph Ellingwood and a man named Middleton were killed on the Graham side and George Newton and James Tewkesbury on the Tewkes- bury side. The Graham party ambushed themselves near John Tewkesbury's house, and found Tewkesbury on guard. When the Graham party was discovered the battle commenced, with the above result. Declared a Fraud. New York, Sept. 24. -In December, 1886, the firm of C.-M. Foster & Co., for a number of years dealers in imported plushes, furniture covers, etc., made an assignment to Frank P. Burnap. The liabilities of the firm were about 51,000,- --000, and the schedules showed assets amounting to £775,000. The court to- day gave a decision setting the assign- ment aside as fraudulent and void, and ordered that a receiver be appointed with reference to be had to state the accounts or the assignee. Killed the Wrong Man. Columbus, 0., Sept. While re- turning from a Sunday school concert at Calvary church, Edgefield county last night, Will Bluford was shot and instantly killed by Paul Griffin. Griffin declared that the killing was accidental; that he shot at Eldred Oliphant, with whom he had quarrelled about escort- ing a girl home from the church and that the pistol ball missed Oliphant and struck Bluford. : . Let Out of Jail. Alfred, Me., Sept. 24.—Dr. Eldridge G. Stevens, who has been in jail since July last on a charge of malpractice, was discharged to-day. .-.'.- . \u25a0E989 —m*. * HER USUAL STYLE. England Engaged in Trying to Bulldoze a Weak Country. New York, Sept. 24.— sailing of the English man-of-war Pylades from Trinidad to Laguayra to demand indem- nity from the government of Venezuela for the detention of the schooners Jo- sephine and Henriette, would seem to point to an active policy on the part of Great Beitain ;: in... her 'dispute with the South American, republic. Lenior de Silva. the consul-general of Venezuela in this city, said: The two schooners mentioned.have been detained for non-compliance with the cus- tom regulations, and they were seized just as a vessel which did not comply with the regu- lations of this government might have been taken. Ivmy opinion it Is merely at attempt of the Tory ministry in England to imitate Mr. Gladstone's Egyptian war. They have got themselvee into so much trouble in Ire- land that they hope to cover it by a vigorous policy in Venezuela. But what we look for is the interference of the United States. The question has been before your state depart- ment for some time now, and it is really a serious one. The territory over w,hich Eng- land has assumed control is larger than British Guinea, and it is a territory which Lord Granville has acknowledged belonged to Venezuela. They havetaken the Island of Barima, which is at "the mouth of . the Ori- noco, and they permit the entrance of goods from English colonies free of duty. They levy taxes upon the people and act in all matters as the rulers .of the couutry. The real gist of this matter is the control of the Orinoco river. Its control means|an . enor- mous influence upon the South American re- public, and an influence such as the United states should have cause to dislike exceed- ingly. As far as war goes,* the English could, of course, blockade the Venezuelan ports if the United States would allow them to do. If they attempted to invade the country, it is probable that their troops Would die off like sheep, in the fevers of the coast line, the terra caliente. However, before matters got to that point, I suppose the United States would interfere. .- The Cholera. .- London Sept. 24.—Reports from the cholera afflicted cities of Sicily. show that {luring- the past - thirty-four hours there, '.were 219 new cases, and isixty ; deaths at Missina, and ten .cases:.and nine deaths at Catonia, and .. six cases and two deaths at Palermo.. A QUEER BIGAMY CASE A Man Charged With Wedding the Mother of His Law- ful Wife. His Arrest Caused by His Combined Brother-in- Law and Step Son. A Wedding Winds Up the At- tractions at the Grand Forks Fair. Settlers Given a Reasonable Show By the Fergus Falls Land Office. Special to the Globe, Mankato, Minn., Sept. Asher A. Morgan and - Hester A. Simmonds were assigned for preliminary hearing before Judge Porter in the municipal court this afternoon. They were ar- rested at Lake Crystal on the 21st, upon complaint of William M. Simmonds, "Charged with bigamy. In default of bail they were committed to the county iail ' to await the action of the grand jury. There is quite a family history in con- nection with this affair, all of which is more or less confused. Morgan, in March, ISB6, married the daughter of the defendant, Hester A. Simmonds, and early in the present month, while this daughter was still living, and his lawful wife, he was married to the above woman, whose husband is living here. The complaining witness is a son of the defendant," Hester A. Simmonds, and a brother of Morgan's first wife, who is a daughter of the second wife and law- fully married to Morgan. The second wife is the mother of the first wife and of the complaining witness, and mother- in-law of Morgan, as well* as his appar- ent wife. She -has another husband living here who is a father of her" chil- dren ami of course father-in-law of his wife's second -son. The complaining witness is a son of the second wifeand brother of the first wife. That would evidently make him ; a brother-in-law of Morgan's, as well as a stepson. Just what relationship the old man may bear to all of these and what other line dis- tinctions of relationship may exist must be left somewhat to the imagination. These people have lived out in the woods several miles south of this city for some time past, and Morgan and his second wife, or mother-in-law, were at- tempting to get away from this vicinity when they were captured at Lake Crys- tal. The case is indeed a sad example of profligacy. 77; ..' ."r . GRAND FORKS FAIR. It Winds Up With a Wedding and Some Races. Specials to the Globe. Grand Forks, Sept. 22.—The final day of the North Dakota exposition was lovely and many thousands attended, the Manitoba railway running free cars every half hour from the city proper to the fair grounds. The events were the wedding and five-mile . equestrian race. At 1:50 p. m. a carriage drove up to the judge's stand with May Holmes, Secre- tary Pronty and the bride, Mrs. Francis A. Ashton, late of Chicago, and D. C. Vernon, an aitist of Minto. The groom was applauded by the vast audience. They took the judge's stand and Mayor Holmes performed the ceremony in the most laconic form of the law after which Secretary Pronty and all present saluted the bride, while Artist Black- burn in the back ground photographed the scene. A large number of useful and ornamental presents were given the couple on the stand. The band played the wedding march as they drove off and a colored quartette sang wedding hyms. The bride wore cinnamon brown satin and a hat match, with a crimson feather. She stood the ordeal like a veteran. The groom wore a plain black suit and orange blossom boutton- nire. The ladies' five-mile race for £250 was won by Miss Pool in 11:47. The winner was much better handled in the changes than; on Thursday, but the first horse was lame and gave Miss Ecrles about- an eighth of a mile lead. Miss Pool made this up in the third and fourth rounds and came in. 100 yards ahead. She maintained her lead and increased it to an eighth of a mile which she maintained to the end, winning by thirteen seconds. Prizes amounting to 81,000 were awarded, many for fine stock going to Minnesota, lowa and Wisconsin. The fair has been a great success, in attendance and financially. RACES. '\u25a0'.'

Special to the Globe. Fergus Falls, Minn., Sept. 24.— response to an order received from the general land office to-day, authorizing him to open to settlement under the general land laws all lands in your dis- trict within the indemnity limits of the grant to the Northern Pacific Railway company heretofore withdrawn for the benefit of said company. Register Cow- ing, of the Fergus Falls land office, an- nounces that no applications, no entries or filings will be allowed on any of this land uutil Dee. 1. The object of this is to give the land office time; to get through its . busy month of November before the rush of _ would-be settlers be- gins; also, to give those who have al- ready settled on the land time to learn of the order, and thus take advantage of it on even terms with others who might desire to file on the tracts already set- tled on. The time given before entries will be received will evidently prevent various speculating schemes to the det- riment of actual settlers from being car- ried out, for by Dec. 1 even the remote county districts will*have heard of the opening of the land to settlement. In the district covered by the Fergus Falls land office, from 25,000 to 30,000 acres will be opened to settlement. This en- tire acreage is in Otter Tail and Doug- lass counties. The s larger part of it is in Otter Tail county. = Lac Qui Parle Happy. Montevideo,.Minn.j. Sept. 24.—The people of Lac Qui Parle held a great jubilee yesterday. -About"' "700".were present. The cause of their jubilation: was the decision requiring the ."county, seat to remain at Lac gui Parle. An ox and /several sheep and * cal yes were roasted; placed upon a -platform whole, - sliced up and served to the multitude. The Montevideo Silver Helican and: Dawson bands furnished the music. The SAINT PAUL, MINN., SUNDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 25, TWENTY-FOUR PAGES. editor of the Madison Press was paraded (in efiigy) on a pole, viz., "a monkey chained with barb wire, .with a bottle of whisky tied to him." A thirsty farmer.' started up , the pole to get the whisky, the pole broke and.efiigy farm- er and bottle air came down together.- After the speaking and music a -resolu- tion was passed by- a unanimous vote that another jubilee be held at Dawson nSxt year, the last two days of the Mad- : ison fair. There is a great strife over" the county seat in Lac Qui Parle county, and the question will probably remain unsettled for years. Open for Traffic. Special to the Globe. * Huron, Dak., Sept. 24.—The exten- sion of the Chicago & Northwestern . from Faulkton to Gettysberg, in Potter county,will be open for trafficto-morrow.

After being out eleven hours, they brought in a verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree, and fixed the penalty at death.' Ken- nedy was brought into court to hear the verdict. Each juror - was . polled as to' his verdict, all answering "Yes." He turned ghastly pale and was remanded to his cell. His attorneys made a mo- tion for a * new trial arid an arrest of judgment, which will have to be heard. next week. In case no new trial is granted, the criminal law allows him a year's lease of life before the sentence can be executed. Ordered to Leave. 7; I*. Oscaloosa, 10., Sept. 24.— city is intensely excited over the discovery yesterday morning of a large dynamite cartridge at the . door of _ the clothing house of I. Frankel & Co. The cartridge was wrapped closely in paper, and at- tached to the wrapper was another pa- per with the following, written upon it: "Settle up your business and leave in thirty days, or you will be blown to hell —yourself, your fine stock, building and all." About three weeks ago a similar : cartridge was found in the same place containing sufficient nitro-glycerine to destroy the entire block. The one found this morning proves to be of greater force than the first one. Frankel & Co. are one of the*wealthiest firms in this section, conducting a banking busi- ness in addition to the clothing house. Fell From the Cars. Kenton, Sept. 24.—As -freight train.

ON CHURCHILL DOWNS.. -->:* :. :; 7 Louisville, Sept. 24.—1t has been seldom that better, sport has been wit- nessed here than that during the past week upon the Louisville Jockey club track. There have been greater horses here and better time made, but for large and evenly matched fields, with the con- sequent uncertainty, the present meet- ing certainly takes a very eminent posi- tion. The interest manifested has been such that three extra days will be added, beginning Monday, and, with the large number horses at the track, continued good racing is assured. There was a good crowd present to-day despite the chilly weather, and the programme was an excellent one. It was a day for the "dark ones," and the ' bookmakers . reaped a harvest. Insolence;- was the only favorite that passed under the wire a winner, beating Procrastinator, Tom Hood and Bixby in the great American stallion stake, one and three-fourth*©f a mile. Libretto being scratched, Ben- edict, als to 1 opportunity of which few availed themselves, beat Tudor, the favorite, in the first race, and Pat Don- xivan; Monocrat and White i Nose, the odds against each being about the same as against Donovan, won- the * third, fourth and fifth events, respectively. The track was about as fast as it gets to be, it no longer being up to the standard of Ten Broeck's days. * Notwithstand- ing the "dumps," the racing was excit- ing, the finishes -being, very close, es- pecially in the last | three races, where ihey ran neck and neck.

Special to the Globe. ;.' \u25a0" New York, Sept. 24.— interna- tional prize fight between Jem Corney, the English champion light-weight, and Jack McAuliffe, who has . had the title of light-weight champion of America, is off. It was to have taken place Oct. 9, and was for $5,000, and to take place within 100 miles ofBoston. It is thought that fully 8100,000 had been bet on the result. Monday next $1,000 was to be put up, but McAuliffe's backer will pay the forfeit. There is now in the hands of the stakeholder. W. D. Sullivan, of Boston, 83,000, each side having put up $1,500. McAuliffe went into training at Lake Hoptanong, N. J., but turned up at the race tracks near here soon after- ward and borrowed $500 of a jockey to meet his . stake payment. McAuliffe's backer is Jimmy Colville, of Boston, and McAuliffe went there and began training again at Mystic Park. He then moved to a place near Providence, R. 1., and returned to Brooklyn recently saying he was sick. He has gained so much flesh, now that he cannot possibly train down to 133 by Oct. 4, when they were to weigh. The Thistle. New York, Sept. 24.— Bell, the owner of the yacht "Thistle,-stated to- day that there was nothing more to say about the excess in the Thistle's water- line measurement. 7"Why," said he, "the ballast could have been thrown out before she was measured and she could have been reballasted. Then we could have called for another measurement after the race, but we desire to deal fair in every respect. We have her as nearly as possible in the condition in' which she sailed on the other side. She has more ballast than on the way over, because .we ; displaced some to make room for the extra . stores required for the voyage. There is really no trouble about the matter whatever."

War Declared Between the National League and Brit- . « ish Government. Editor O'Brien Convicted on Two Charges and Sen- tenced to Jail. Lord Hartington Placed in a Peculiar Dilemma About Politics. Ayoub Kahn Still a Free Man —General Foreign Intel- ligence. By cable to the Globe.: London, Sept. 24.—War is now de- clared between the National league and the government, and bitter strife will continue until one is proclaimed victor. Both combatants proceed in their re- spective courses, and neither shows any signs of weakening. Indeed the battle is but begun: Mr. Balfour has under- taken the mighty work of suppressing 200 branches of the league but he finds when the details of his plans are put into operation, the league simply eludes the suppression. The native wit of the Irishman is called into play, and means unknown to the chief secretary are found of continuing the Nationalist meetings. When the league was pro- claimed it was suggested that the law might be evaded by the league as- similating with the Home Rule union or the English Liberal league, and contin- uing to work as nominal branches of these societies, but the whole country is now so thoroughly wrought up that any evasion is scouted, and open defiance is the order of the day. The Irish leaders and people are determined to fight the battle out solely under the banner of the league, and refuse to avail them- selves of any subterfuge by which they might escape' the consequences which the contempt of the law will imme- diately bring upon them. The opinion was concurred in by Mr.. O'Brien, Mayor _ Timothy Sullivan,.of Dublin, and Mr. Dillon, and this trio, in con junction with other Nationalist lead- ers, have decided to SEEK NO TEMPORARY SHELTER under the protection of outside asso- ciates, however sympathetic, but to manfully struggle to uphold the league until the victory of which they are confident comes to their re- lief. That this struggle will be a severe one is now plainly evident; the events of the past week have convinced the Irish leaders that the fight will be bitter and hard, and even more so than they had foreseen. There is not the slightest trace of the government flinch- ing in its present endeavor. They have found Mr. Balfour'a* resolute minister of England's coercion" policy, on the alert to take advantage of the merest | chance in the government's favor; | vig- orous, active and - ABSOLUTELY FEARLESS of his personal safety. Moreover, they find him ready to use the most extreme measures in his power for their repres- sion. The Nationalist press has heaped every epithet its extensive .vocabulary contains upon the Irish secretary, and lately revels in the bestowal of the euphonious title of --bloody Bal- four," and characterizes his policy as worthy that of a fiend incarnate. They hold him up to execration, and, with allusion to the fatal affray at Mitchels- town,speak of him as ''dabbling his sleek young hands in Erin's blood." They: stigmatize him as "callous of bloodshed as Cromwell," and with burning words depict him "butchering feeble peasants in cold blood,' with a languid sardonic smile upon - his cowardly, {effeminate face." Much more in the same vein is hurled at the devoted head of the min- ister by 7 the press, and the Irish leaders are warned what to pre- pare for; that Balfour will strain ' the .: coercion act to its utmost in order to extinguish the hateful league.- "Unless," continue they,."sud- den death stops him in his career, or the ministry became afraid to follow him to such extremes as he will go, he will prove THE MOST FORMIRABLEFOE -•:. i _. that the national cause has met with since its resurgence." There *is great indignation among the Liberal ranks in. England. The anti-coercion meetings. which were held in London by the Lib- eral league were subjected to police in- trusion under government orders. The police - were ordered \to be present for the purpose of ascertaining the object of the meetings. The Liberal league is severely blamed for assenting to this action by the government, and they have determined to refuse infor- mation concerning their j meetings, and to resist the entrance of * the police to their deliberations unless the latter are armed with a special warrant. This, if granted, will be made the basis of legal Sroceedings, and it is improbable that Ir. Matthews, the home secretary, will assume the risk of an action which no government can sustain. EDITOR O'BRIEN. He Is Convicted Two Times in One . Day. Cork, Sept. 24.— trial of William O'Brien under the . crimes act, which was commenced at Mitchelstown yester- day, was concluded-to-day. The ac- cused was found guilty and sentenced to three months' imprisonment. Notice of appeal from the judgment of the. court was given. Mr. O'Brien, in his speech of -defense," said the crown was. guilty of having suppressed evidence favorable to him. The crown had with- held, for instance, the notes . made by the head constable ;of the defendant's speech. In these notes, he said, was. recorded his statement that the Irish party would give the land bill fair play. Continuing, Mr. . O'Brien justified*, his defense of the Kingstown tenants on the ground 7 that the evictions against them were . commenced just on the eve of the passage of the land bill, and thus an attempt was made to defraud the poor, wretched tenants of the benefits of the measure. He ad- mitted that he even advised the tenants not to give up without resistance, and that he had declared that, before God and man, they .were justified in defend- ing their homes. '". Immediately after sentence had 'been pronouncee against Mr. O'Brien on the first charge, he was placed on trial on : the" ; second charge. This was of > the . same nature as the other." Upon this' he was also" found guilty, and was .' sentenced; to . three months' imprisonment, the term . to Ibe concurrent with the other. Mr. O'Brien; appealed from both judgments and was liberated on bail. Mr. John Mandeville,' chairman .of ,the: board_ of poor law . guardians '• of Mitchelltown, who '*was. -jointly,indicted with Mr. O'Brien 7; for :using seditious' language.; in C a speech' j ; made on .the/, same occasion Jas > Mr. O'Brien's, was also convicted and. sent- enced to two.' months' .. imprisonment.' Mr. Mandeville appealed from the judgment and was permitted to remain at liberty on bail pending the decision of the appeal. Mr. O'Brien, when he emerged from the court-room after the trial, was received with an ovation by a large crowd which had assembled to testify their approval of his course. O'Brien gpoke briefly, notwithstand- ing the interruptions by the court, and was frequently applauded. He asserted that his advice nrevented evictions, that a hundred tenant? in Mitchelstown now Eossessed homes who would have been oraelessif his advice had not been adopted. ' Personally he felt very proud of being one of a long line of men who made the prison cell a glorious and holy place. Possibly he himself would be the last of that long line for the Eng- lish nation, to which his last appeal must be made, would reverse the decis- ion pronounced to-day, and declare it no longer a crime to defend the homes, and assert the liberty of the IrhA peor pie. LiORD HARTINGTON. He is Placed in an Awkward' Po- sition Toward All Political Parr ties. ;. *;-"."•". By Cable to the Globe. London, Sept. 24.—1t is more certain now than it has ever been that Lord Harrington must choose between join- ing the present government during the recess or seeing its break-up. This has become inevitable, apparently, less from political than from personal causes. Agreat deal has been said from time to time of Lord Salisbury's self-sacrifice in offering to make way for the Union* ist leaders, but the fact is, if no other considerations had to be taken into ac- count, Lord Salisbury's health makes it absolutely certain that he cannot face another laborious session while holding the two important and responsible offi- ces he now fills. The prolongation of the recent session entailed constant anxiety and mental strain on the head of the government, and Lord Salisbury was as much worn out as Mr. Smith, without having Mr. Smith's powers of recuperation. The premier is a. most conscientious worker and the steady toil at his desk during the closing days of the session has resulted in a somewhat serious physical derangement, which his stay at Royat has not greatly, benefited. Hence his departure to-day forDieppe. If Lord Harrington does not make up his mind to assume the leadership of the present government. Lord Salisbury may be forced to resign without settling who is to succeed him, and it is this contingency which is being anxiously discussed in ministerial quart- ers. Tlie -Conservative leader -would gladly retain the . secretaryship of the foreign office, but there is no one among his own colleagues, of course, who could be placed over his head. Mr. Goschen s, perhaps, the ablest of the men, but Mr. Goschen's leadership WOULD BE VERY UNPOPULAR with a large portion of the Conservative party. It is impossible to believe for a moment that Lord Harrington will stand by and see the present govern- ment go to wreck. There is only one alternative.** Lord Harrington will ac- cept the situation, and he will do so earlier than most people have expected. Two . cabinet: ministers, one a man of great . family, steeped in all ;of, . - the traditions of _ the ' -high Tory aristocracy, the other an energetic man of business and a prominent poli- tician, who sets for a populous urban, .constituency, in »interviews ' . to-day, uttered the same- sentiments and in al- most the same words of the \ subject | of the indispensability of Lord Harring- ton. There could not be. found better representatives of the old and new Com- servatism than these . two men. They frankly said that they regarded; Lord Harrington's entrance into the govern- ment as a most desirable move, although they of course professed official ig- norance as to its likelihood. Joseph Chamberlain's departure for America is so palpable a sign of disaffection and evidences so plainly a desire . to. with* draw from present complications iq. order to return to orthodox Liberalism that Lord Harrington is bound to do what lies in his powers to supply THE NECESSARY COUNTERPOISE. : All that loyal and hearty co-opeiation from outside could do has been done and has failed. There remains nothing for Lord Harrington except to cast his lot officially with those whom he unofficially supports. The difficulty about the \ seat is not great. If Rosendale rejects a member of the Tory government there are plenty ofplaces which would wel- come him and ifhe shrinks from calling himself a Tory there is," at any rate, one constituency which might be trusted to return him as a Liberal or Unionist and that is ' the university., of * Cambridge. That excellent and accomplished imper- sonation of high churchmanship and high Toryism, Mr. Beresford-Hdpe, though greatly improved in health, will never again be equal to the labors, anx- ieties ; and excitement of the house of commons. There could be nothing more suitable than that he should be succeeded by the eldest son of the chan- cellor of the university, a graduate of Trinity college, and a man who, as Lord Cavendish, won the credit among his fellow students of an intellectual capac- ity, principally in the direction of math- ematics, which would have assured him; a distinguished position :if circum- stances had obliged him to work. AYOUB KHAN. His Escape Is Causing the English a Good Deal of Worry. By Cable to the Globe. . London, Sept. 24.—The Indian office is greatly disappointed at not having re- ceived a confirmation of the reported capture of Ayoub Khan. On the con- trary, a report received from Afghanis- tan this afternoon states that the inde- fatigable Afghan pretender is actively re paring for a descent on Herat, louring more is known at present, and it:need scarcely be said that further, particulars will be j anxiously - awaited. So long, indeed, as Ayoub is at liberty, so long may Great Britain consider the Afghan question, with Its attendant is- sues, reopened.* The present rule in that country has ] never been. received by the people with favor, and there have : always \u25a0 been disaffected tribes, ready to rise up on the least encourage- ment. ' With the Ghilzai rebellion still unsuppressed, this is a particularly in- convenient time for* the reappearance of Ayoub on Afghan soil. Herat, too.is an embarrassing spot for, while it af- fects a considerable area of country, the constituted authority is but weakly rep- resented, and the rebellious spirits have a strong following thereabouts. Once at the head of"a native . army, Ayoub Khan would give his cousin, the ameer, who is just now troubled with gout, serious work, and if- successful" would reinvolve England in difficulties such as Englishmen have seen enoueh of in the past. Why Davitt is Com . *, London, Sept. 24.—The : Cork corre* spun .tent of the Times : says that owing to the ,' blunders:'_'. made ; by . William O'Brien during his recent American trip the donations to the National league from America: have dwindled, and .that Mr. Davitt has gone to America to endeavor to ''. repair the ". damage ••\u25a0 done by Mr, O'Brien. He kept his departure a secrefc until the last moment as he feared that he would be "arrested; and that his pro* ject would be thus nipped in the bud.'

Special to the Globe.Chicago, Sept. There must be a

marked absence of coleric in the at-mosphere of Chicago when the divorceindustry is not up to the notch, com-

mercially speaking. The demand forthis modern essential to true happinesswas twice as strong as was thesupply. A number of lawyers whomake divorce their specialty, it is said,owing to the tendency to bull the mar-ket, have pooled their issues and di-vorces can be obtained upon the install-ment plan; that is to say, the divorcesproper are not obtained in this manner,but the lawyers' fees are paid thusly.Astatute recently passed, having theprotection of Chicago's leading indus-try well in view, makes all unpaid feesthus incurred a charge upon the prop-erty of the husbands which follow. To-day there were 100 applications for di-vorces before the court and it was not agood day for divorces either. The fivejudges. Shepard, Garnett, Jamison, Col-lins and Horton took the matter well inhand but their heroic efforts succeededin granting only fifty divorces. Here-after the clerks and bailiffs of these di-vorcemills will be called in requisitionand each man there

The most in-teresting case before Judge Collins wasthat ofLena Struevy against John, her-husband, who was arrested for attempt-ing to shoot George Kuhl because hewas playing assistant husband to hiswife. John had filed a suit before the

England Engaged in Trying toBulldoze a Weak Country.

New York, Sept. 24.— sailing ofthe English man-of-war Pylades fromTrinidad to Laguayra to demand indem-nity from the government ofVenezuelafor the detention of • the schooners Jo-sephine and Henriette, would seem topoint to an active policy on the part ofGreat Beitain ;: in... her 'dispute with theSouth American, republic. Lenior deSilva. the consul-general of Venezuelain this city, said:

The two schooners mentioned.have beendetained for non-compliance with the cus-tom regulations, and they were seized just asa vessel which did not comply with the regu-lations of this government might have beentaken. Ivmy opinion itIs merely at attemptof the Tory ministry in England to imitateMr. Gladstone's Egyptian war. They havegot themselvee into so much trouble in Ire-land that they hope to cover it by a vigorouspolicy in Venezuela. But what we look foris the interference of the United States. Thequestion has been before your state depart-ment for some time now, and it is really aserious one. The territory over w,hich Eng-land has assumed control is larger thanBritish Guinea, and it is a territory whichLord Granville has acknowledged belongedto Venezuela. They havetaken the Island ofBarima, which is at "the mouth of . the Ori-noco, and they permit the entrance of goodsfrom English colonies free of duty. Theylevy taxes upon the people and act in allmatters as the rulers .of the couutry. Thereal gist of this matter is the control of theOrinoco river. Its control means|an . enor-mous influence upon the South American re-public, and an influence such as the Unitedstates should have cause to dislike exceed-ingly. As far as war goes,* the English could,of course, blockade the Venezuelan ports ifthe United States would allow them to do.Ifthey attempted to invade the country, itisprobable that their troops Would die off likesheep, in the fevers of the coast line, theterra caliente. However, before matters gotto that point, I suppose the United Stateswould interfere. .-

They were ar-rested at Lake Crystal on the 21st, uponcomplaint of William M. Simmonds,"Charged with bigamy. In default of bailthey were committed to the county iail 'to await the action of the grand jury.There is quite a family history in con-nection with this affair, all of which ismore or less confused. Morgan, inMarch, ISB6, married the daughter of thedefendant, Hester A. Simmonds, andearly in the present month, while thisdaughter was still living, and his lawfulwife, he was married to the abovewoman, whose husband is living here.The complaining witness is a son of thedefendant," Hester A. Simmonds, and abrother of Morgan's first wife, who is adaughter of the second wife and law-fully married to Morgan. The secondwife is the mother of the first wife andof the complaining witness, and mother-in-law of Morgan, as well* as his appar-ent wife. She -has another husbandliving here who is a father of her" chil-dren ami ofcourse father-in-law of hiswife's second -son. The complainingwitness is a son of the second wifeandbrother ofthe first wife. That wouldevidently make him

a brother-in-law ofMorgan's, as well as a stepson. Justwhat relationship the old man may bearto all of these and what other line dis-tinctions ofrelationship may exist mustbe left somewhat to the imagination.These people have lived out in thewoods several miles south of this cityforsome time past, and Morgan and hissecond wife, or mother-in-law, were at-tempting to get away from this vicinitywhen they were captured at Lake Crys-tal.

FIERCE STRIFE AHEAD.War Declared Between the

National League and Brit- .« ish Government.

Editor O'Brien Convicted onTwo Charges and Sen-

tenced to Jail.

Lord Hartington Placed ina Peculiar Dilemma

About Politics.

Ayoub Kahn Still a Free Man—General Foreign Intel-

ligence.

By cable to the Globe.:London, Sept. 24.—War is now de-

clared between the National league andthe government, and bitter strife willcontinue until one is proclaimed victor.Both combatants proceed in their re-spective courses, and neither shows anysigns of weakening. Indeed the battleis but begun: Mr. Balfour has under-taken the mighty work of suppressing200 branches of the league but he findswhen the details of his plans are putinto operation, the league simply eludesthe suppression. The native wit of theIrishman is called into play, andmeans unknown to the chief secretaryare found of continuing the Nationalistmeetings. When the league was pro-claimed it was suggested • that thelaw might be evaded by the league as-similating with the Home Rule union orthe English Liberal league, and contin-uing to work as nominal branches ofthese societies, but the whole country isnow so thoroughly wrought up that anyevasion is scouted, and open defiance is

•the order of the day. The Irish leadersand people are determined to fight thebattle out solely under the banner ofthe league, and refuse to avail them-selves ofany subterfuge by which theymight escape' the consequences whichthe contempt of the law will imme-diately bring upon them.

The opinion was concurred in by Mr..O'Brien, Mayor _ Timothy Sullivan,.ofDublin, and Mr. Dillon, and this trio, incon junction with other Nationalist lead-ers, have decided to

SEEK NO TEMPORARY SHELTERunder the protection of outside asso-ciates, however sympathetic, but tomanfully struggle to uphold the leagueuntil the victory of which theyare confident comes to their re-lief. That this struggle will bea severe one is now plainly evident; theevents of the past week have convincedthe Irish leaders that the fight will bebitter and hard, and even more so thanthey had foreseen. There is not theslightest trace of the government flinch-ing in its present endeavor. They havefound Mr.Balfour'a*resolute ministerof England's coercion" policy, on thealert to take advantage of the merest

| chance in the government's favor; | vig-orous, active and -

ABSOLUTELY FEARLESSof his personal safety. Moreover, theyfind him ready to use the most extrememeasures in his power for their repres-sion. The Nationalist press has heapedevery epithet its extensive .vocabularycontains upon the Irish secretary, andlately revels in the bestowal of theeuphonious title of --bloody Bal-four," and characterizes his policy asworthy that of a fiend incarnate. Theyhold him up to execration, and, withallusion to the fatal affray at Mitchels-town,speak ofhim as ''dabbling his sleekyoung hands in Erin's blood." They:stigmatize him as "callous of bloodshedas Cromwell," and with burning wordsdepict him "butchering feeble peasantsin cold blood,' with a languid sardonicsmile upon -his cowardly, {effeminateface." Much more in the same vein ishurled at the devoted head of the min-ister by7 the press, and the Irishleaders are warned what to pre-pare for; that Balfour will strain'the .: coercion act to its utmostin order to extinguish the hatefulleague.- "Unless," continue they,."sud-den death stops him in his career, orthe ministry became afraid to followhim to such extremes as he will go, hewillprove

THE MOST FORMIRABLEFOE -•:.i _.that the national cause has met withsince its resurgence." There *is greatindignation among the Liberal ranks in.England. The anti-coercion meetings.which were held inLondon by the Lib-eral league were subjected topolice in-trusion under government orders.The police - were ordered \to bepresent for the purpose of ascertainingthe object of the meetings. The Liberalleague is severely blamed for assentingto this action by the government, andthey have determined to refuse infor-mation concerning their jmeetings, andto resist the entrance of *the police totheir deliberations unless the latter arearmed with a special warrant. This, ifgranted, willbe made the basis oflegal

Sroceedings, and it is improbable thatIr.Matthews, the home secretary, will

assume the risk of an action which nogovernment can sustain.

EDITOR O'BRIEN.

He Is Convicted Two Times in One. Day.Cork, Sept. 24.— trial of William

O'Brien under the . crimes act, whichwas commenced at Mitchelstown yester-day, was concluded-to-day. The ac-cused was found guilty and sentencedto three months' imprisonment. Noticeof appeal from the judgment of the.court was given. Mr. O'Brien, in hisspeech of-defense," said the crown was.guiltyof having suppressed evidencefavorable to him. The crown had with-held, for instance, the notes . made bythe head constable ;of the defendant'sspeech. In these notes, he said, was.recorded his statement that the Irishparty would give the land bill fair play.Continuing, Mr. . O'Brien justified*,hisdefense of the Kingstown tenantson the ground 7 that the evictionsagainst them were . commenced juston the eve of the passage of the landbill, and thus an attempt was made todefraud the poor, wretched tenants ofthe benefits of the measure. He ad-mitted that he even advised the tenantsnot to give up without resistance, andthat he had declared that, before Godand man, they .were justified in defend-ing their homes. '". Immediately aftersentence had 'been pronouncee againstMr. O'Brien on the firstcharge, he wasplaced on trial on : the"; second charge.This was of > the . same nature as theother." Upon this' he was also" foundguilty, and was .' sentenced; to . threemonths' imprisonment, the term . to Ibeconcurrent with the other. Mr.O'Brien;appealed from both judgments and wasliberated on bail. Mr. John Mandeville,'chairman .of ,the: board_ of poor law

.guardians '• of Mitchelltown, who '*was.-jointly,indicted with Mr. O'Brien 7; for:using seditious' language.; in C a speech' j; made on .the/, same occasion Jas > Mr.O'Brien's, was also convicted and. sent-enced to two.'months' .. imprisonment.'

Mr. Mandeville appealed from thejudgment and was permitted to remainat liberty on bail pending the decisionof the appeal. Mr. O'Brien, when heemerged from the court-room after thetrial, was received with an ovation by alarge crowd which had assembled totestify their approval ofhis course.

O'Brien gpoke briefly, notwithstand-ing the interruptions by the court, andwas frequently applauded. He assertedthat his advice nrevented evictions, thata hundred tenant? in Mitchelstown nowEossessed homes who would have been

oraelessif his advice had not beenadopted. 'Personally he felt very proudof being one of a long line of men whomade the prison cell a glorious and holyplace. Possibly he himself would bethe last of that long line for the Eng-lish nation, to which his last appealmust be made, would reverse the decis-ion pronounced to-day, and declare itno longer a crime to defend the homes,and assert the liberty of the IrhA peorpie.

LiORD HARTINGTON.

He is Placed in an Awkward' Po-sition Toward AllPolitical Parrties. ;. *;-"."•".

By Cable to the Globe.London, Sept. 24.—1t is more certain

now than ithas ever been that LordHarrington must choose between join-ing the present government during therecess or seeing its break-up. This hasbecome inevitable, apparently, lessfrom political than from personal causes.Agreat deal has been said from time totime of Lord Salisbury's self-sacrificein offering to make wayforthe Union*ist leaders, but the fact is, if no otherconsiderations had to be taken into ac-count, Lord Salisbury's health makes itabsolutely certain that he cannot faceanother laborious session while holdingthe two important and responsible offi-ces he now fills. The prolongation ofthe recent session entailed constantanxiety and mental strain on the headof the government, and Lord Salisburywas as much worn out as Mr. Smith,without having Mr. Smith's powers ofrecuperation. The premier is a. mostconscientious worker and the steadytoil at his desk during the closing daysofthe session has resulted in a somewhatserious physical derangement, whichhis stay at Royat has not greatly,benefited. Hence his departure to-dayforDieppe. If Lord Harrington doesnot make up his mind to assume theleadership ofthe present government.Lord Salisbury may be forced to resignwithout settling who is to succeed him,and it is this contingency which is beinganxiously discussed in ministerial quart-ers. Tlie -Conservative leader -wouldgladly retain the . secretaryship of theforeign office, but there is no one amonghis own colleagues, ofcourse, who couldbe placed over his head. Mr. Goschens, perhaps, the ablest of the men, butMr. Goschen's leadership

WOULD BE VERY UNPOPULARwith a large portion ofthe Conservativeparty. It is impossible to believe fora moment that Lord Harrington willstand by and see the present govern-ment go to wreck. There is only onealternative.** Lord Harrington will ac-cept the „situation, and he will do soearlier than most people have expected.Two . cabinet: ministers, one a manof great . family, steeped in all;of, . - the traditions of _ the '-highTory aristocracy, the other an energeticman of business and a prominent poli-tician, who sets for a populous urban,.constituency, in »interviews ' . to-day,uttered the same- sentiments and in al-most the same words of the \ subject | ofthe indispensability of Lord Harring-ton. There could not be. found betterrepresentatives ofthe old and new Com-servatism than these . two men. Theyfrankly said that they regarded; LordHarrington's entrance into the govern-ment as a most desirable move, althoughthey of course professed official ig-norance as to its likelihood. JosephChamberlain's departure for Americais so palpable a sign of disaffection andevidences so plainly a desire . to. with*draw from present complications iq.order to return to orthodox Liberalismthat Lord Harrington is bound to dowhat lies in his powers to supply

THE NECESSARY COUNTERPOISE. :All that loyal and hearty co-opeiation

from outside could do has been done andhas failed. There remains nothing forLord Harrington except to cast his lotofficially with those whom he unofficiallysupports. The difficulty about the \ seatis not great. If Rosendale rejects amember ofthe Tory government thereare plenty ofplaces which would wel-come him and ifhe shrinks from callinghimself a Tory there is," at any rate, oneconstituency which might be trusted toreturn him as a Liberal or Unionist andthat is ' the university., of* Cambridge.That excellent and accomplished imper-sonation of high churchmanship andhigh Toryism, Mr. Beresford-Hdpe,though greatly improved in health, willnever again be equal to the labors, anx-ieties ; and excitement of the house ofcommons. There could be nothingmore suitable than that he should besucceeded by the eldest son of the chan-cellor of the university, a graduate ofTrinity college, and a man who, as LordCavendish, won the credit among hisfellow students ofan intellectual capac-ity, principally in the direction ofmath-ematics, which would have assured him;a distinguished position :if circum-stances had obliged him to work.

AYOUB KHAN.

His Escape Is Causing the Englisha Good Deal ofWorry.

By Cable to the Globe.. London, Sept. 24.—The Indian office

is greatly disappointed at not having re-ceived a confirmation of the reportedcapture of Ayoub Khan. On the con-trary, a report received from Afghanis-tan this afternoon states that the inde-fatigable Afghan pretender is activelyre paring for a descent on Herat,louring more is known at present, and

it:need scarcely be said that further,particulars will be janxiously - awaited.So long, indeed, as Ayoub is at liberty,so long may Great Britain consider theAfghan question, with Its attendant is-sues, reopened.* The present rule inthat country has ]never been. receivedby the people with favor, and therehave : always \u25a0 been disaffected tribes,ready to rise up on the least encourage-ment. 'With the Ghilzai rebellion stillunsuppressed, this is a particularly in-convenient time for* the reappearanceofAyoub on Afghan soil. Herat, too.isan embarrassing spot for, while it af-fects a considerable area of country, theconstituted authority is but weakly rep-resented, and the rebellious spirits havea strong following thereabouts. Onceat the head of"a native . army, AyoubKhan would give his cousin, the ameer,who is just now troubled with gout,serious work, and if-successful" wouldreinvolve England in difficulties such asEnglishmen have seen enoueh of in thepast.

Why Davitt is Com .*,London, Sept. 24.—The : Cork corre*spun .tent of the Times : says that owingto the ,'blunders:'_'. made ; by . WilliamO'Brien during his recent American tripthe donations tothe National league fromAmerica: have dwindled, and .that Mr.Davitt has gone to America to endeavorto ''.repair the ". damage ••\u25a0 done by Mr,O'Brien. He kept his departure a secrefcuntil the last moment as he feared thathe would be "arrested; and that his pro*ject would be thus nipped in the bud.'
