the onrnoie of obtaining their views as to the

probable action of . the Governor in the Anarch let cases. Jadce W. C. Goudy said: "The law is per missive, not mandators, and the Governor can do jnst as he pleases." Gen. 1. N. Stiles said: "Petitions to the Governor will now follow for commutation of sen tence, bat what these petitions are going to do for men who scorn efforts for tneir pardon. X cannot say. , The Governor , will probably stay the execntion of sentence a reasonable time in order that their cases can be presented. Tne men have had a fair trial and have been prop erly convicted. . I do not think there was an ar TOmtent made before the United States Supreme Conrt that was worthy of serious consideration. I judge that the attorneys for the Anarchists bad no confidence in their position. " Hon. Leonard Swett said: "The question to come before the Governor I understand to be whether be will commute the sentence or whether be will let the law take its coarse. That brings the whole case before him, and he can consider any question which he pleases to consider in relation to it. I do not understand that the Governor considers the law points of the case. As to the probability of a reprieve. I can express no opinion. I was employed as a lawyer to take tne case to the Supreme Court and make such objections to the conviction as I could. I have dona my duty." Judge McAllister said: "A man may be technically guilty and lawfully guilty, and yet it may be a case for the exercise of clemency. The RnwrnAr fun connii)r the wholn riM and is in no way restricted in bis action by the decision 1 of the courts. As to the probability of a reprieve, I have no opinion to offer. It is an awful responsibility for tne Governor. - I do not hesitate to say, if he allows the law to take its course, it will make these men martyrs in the opinion of thousands of people. It will be to the monopolists what the hanging of John Brown was to slavery, and so you will find it." Ex-Governor John M; Palmer, who is in the city on business, said that the Supreme Cocrt . decision in the Anarchist case met his perfect approval. "Judee McGruders opinion in the Illinois Supreme Court," he said, "wsut right to the root of the whole argument in sustaining the constitution of the jury, and " the United States Supreme Court's approval should convince every fair-minded man thai justice has been done. As far as the idea of its being inhuman to hang these men, I can s-o no sense in that. They Rilled several policemen, didn't they? and wounded many more, was tbat humanityl They talk about Governor Cvlesty bing influenced by these appeals on . the ground of humanity and mercy. I don't believe it Governor Oglesby is a man of courage, and always upon the side of law and right, and he is not going to be persuaded from his duty by any personal considerations whatever. The biehest courts in the land have decreed this verdict a just one, and Governor Oglesby is not eoing to be swayed in his manifest duty by any trilling considerations. I do not say this by any authority from him, but simply from what 1 know of him as a man." Captain Black said this afternoon. "I am disappointed at the action of the Supreme Court. We will now bend our energies to the application for a pardon. We have got some work to do on that yet, which will occupy some time. The work on the petition will occupy several davs yet, and I do not think we shall be able to appear before the Governor before Wednesday. Our party will he considerable, and we shall have many men of prominence among us." tiling Known at Springfield. Springfield, I1L, Nov. 2. There is absolutely nothing to be said as to the probable action of the Governor in the condemned Anarchists' case, as his Excellency declines to say anything on the anbjeet. The decision of the United States Supreme Court was made known to him shortly before noon to-day. and his features at onee assumed an expression of real gravity. He received a number of letters and petitions on the subject to-day, and it is asserted that three Chicaeo ladies visited him in the interest of the condemned men. The leeliug is almost universal here that he will not interfere with the sentence of the conrt that the conditions are such that be cannot. There is a bare possibility that he may interpose clemency in the interest of Fielden and Schwab, though he has said nothing to indicate even this. " OBITUARY. Jenny L.lnd, the Famous Swedish Singer, Dies at tbe Age of Sixty-Six. London, Nov. 2. Jenny Lind (Mme. Goldcehmidt), the celebrated Swedish singer, is dead. S&e was sixty-six vears of age. She bad been seriously ill for some weeks. She retired from the stage after her marriage, in America, in 1852. but reappeared in Tarious concerts in aid of charities. She has not appeared in public since 1866. Jenny Lind was born at Stockholm, Oct. 6, 1821. Of hnmble parentage, her extraordinary musical gifts attracted attention early in life, and at nine years of age she was admitted to the Conservatory of Stockholm. At sixteen Ehe appeared successfully as Agatha in "Der Freischuetz." At twenty she went to Paris and received instruction from Garcia, but her appearance in opera there, two years later, was so mortifying a failure that she resolved to sing in France no more. She was received, however, with great enthusiasm on her return to Stockholm, and her subsequent professional life was a series of continued successes, prominent among which were her Berlin engagement in 1845, London in 1847. Stockholm in 1S48 and London in 1S49. In 1850 P. T. Barnum engaged her for a series of concerts in the United States, British Provinces, Mexico and tbe West Indies, and her tour in this country forms a prominent chapter in its musical history. Tbe profits of the tour were $610,000, of which she received $302,000. While here she married Otto Goldschmidt, a Hamburger, who accompanied her as pianist. Tbey returned to Europe in 1852, and have since lived in comparative private life. In 1374. M. and Mme. Goldschmidt were appointed leading professors of music at the Rhenish Academy of Weisbaden. Her gracious manners and extensive charities made her loved as her voice made her admired. Business Embarrassments. Wilmington, O. , Nov. 2. Messrs. Fulton & Petters, coal and grain dealers, have asaignedAssets, $53,000; liabilities, $50,000. New Yokk, Nov. 2. An attachment was issued to-day against the Ivanhoe Paper Company of this city and Paterson, N. J. Its plant was mortgaged a few days ago for $56,000. It is valued at $250,000, and bears a first mortgage of $71,000. Cincinnati. Nov. 2. Joseph Smith, capitalist, made an assignment to-day to W. F. Boyd. Assets, $250, 000; liabilities, $200,000. The assets consist of $75,000 in real estate and the remainder in securities, most of which are hypothecated. This failure is traceable to the Fidelity Bank failure and the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton trouble, both of which caused great shrinkage in securities held by Mr. Smith. St. Louis. Nov. 2. Two attachment suits were filed in the Circuit Court to-day by Joseph Speebtand Mareno A. Wolff against the wholesale millinery house of Isaac B. Rosenthal & Co. , of this city. Mr. Specht's claim is for $36,055, and that of Mr. Wolff $35,000. The sheriff took possession of the store and stock. These claims are in thSTnature of paper put out by the firm during the recent stringency in the money market, and purchased at a discount. The firm has a branch house in New York, and it was lately learned by Messrs. Specht and Wolff that it bad issued some $150,000 worth of accommodation paper in that city and that tbe firm holding it was liable to fail, hence they attached the firm here to protect themselves. The value of the stock of the St. Louis firm is said to be about $90,000. The Fifth National Bank here is a creditor of Rosenthal & Co., but is fully secured. A Rig Defalcation. New York. Nov. 2. David Scott, of the firm of Vernon Bros. & Co., paper dealers at No. 67 Duane street, and who is reputed to be worth several hundred thousand dollars, has been missing since a week ago Saturday. On the Monday folio wine, a letter written from Niaeara falls, was received from Mr. Scott, in which he stated be bad issued paper with tbe firm's name indorsed. Thomas Vernon, the head of the firm, says: "We find Mr. Scott issued the firm's in dorsement to the amount of about $60,000, and besides that he has out notes of his own, to what amouct we do not know. " The Election in Delaware. Wilmington, Del., Nov. 2. Complete returns of yesterday's election makes the total vote in the State in favor of a constitutional convention, 14,431; against convention, 393. Though falling 1,209 votes short of the strict letter of the act under which tbe election was held, (and which required that at least 15,640 votes be cast in favor of a convention), this vote shows that a dear majority of tbe qualified voters favor a convention, and is generally accepted as assuring tbe election of a Legislature pledged to call a convention.

GUABDING AGAINST KESCUE

Editor O'Brien and Mr. Man devil le Transferred to the Jail atTullamore, A Point at Which Large Numbers of British Troops Can Be Speedily Concentrated to , Eepela Possible Attempt at Rescue. EDITOR O'BRIEX. Tbe Authorities Transfer the Plucky Agi tate r to Tnliamore Jail. Special to tbe Indianapolis Jjurnau London, Nov. 2. The removal of Mr. O'Briea from CorK to Tnliamore, which was effected today, created a tremendous sensation throughout that large portion of Ireland firm in its demand for home rule, and many are the reasons ascribed to the government for the transfer. The reason alleged by the government officials is , that the authorities wished to remove tha prisoner from tbe influence of the Mayor of Cork, where visits to the jail and promises to report to the country the daily progress of events concerning Mr. O'Brien and Mr. Mandeville, their . treatment, utterances, etc., were thought to have an unfavorable . effect upon the prisoners and tha pnblic, but it is suspected that tha true reason is that Tnliamore is easily and speedily accessible from Dublin, Curragh, Kildare and other . places in that region, where troops are stationed in large numbers. The fact is that the government had' reason to fear that in the present temper of the people a reseue might be attempted, and took timely precautions against it. Another circumstance favorable to the government in transferring Mr. O'Brien to Tnliamore is the fact that both the visiting and resident magistrates, as well as the landlords at Tullamore, are stanch supporters of tbe Dublin executive's coerecion policy, and there is, perhaps, no other place in Ireland where the prisoner could be so far removed from home-rule influences and sympathies, and at the same time be so securely guarded against violent attempts to set him free. Mr. O'Brien, when taken on board the train at Cork, was somewhat pale and worn, but smiled and chatted affably with those who . were permitted to converse with him, and read the morning papers with apparent interest. The fact that Messrs. O'Brien and Mandeville wore their ordinary dress was perhaps due in a much greater degree to tbe desire of the officials to afford as little provocation as possible to the people to resort to violent acts, than to spare the feelings of the prisoners, thongh the convicted men were strongly guarded, and it is doubtful whether any attempt to resent indignities noon them could have been successfully carried out. The Liberals assert that the transfer of the prisoners was intended to brutalize them by throwing them into a jail notoriously foul and ill-conducted, and thereby dampen the enthusiasm of others ambitious to become martyrs to the Irish cause. If this is really the motive of the executive, they further declare its effect will be lost, for no Irish patriot or Liberal ally of the home-rule party stands in fear of jails or in awe of a law that must ultimately, through its enforcement, cause the downfall of tbe party that enacted it. Tenants Urged to Combine. Dublin, Nov. 2. Mr. Blake, an ex-minister of the Canadian Cabinet, in a speech at Glen Sharrold, the scene of the evictions from tbe estate of the Rev. John Delmege, a rich, landlord of County Limerick, said tbe evictions enforced by Delmege were shameful in every detail.' It was a burning shame, and humiliating, he said, to find a man living in luxury while his tenants were in a state of misery such as should invoke God's curse upon its author and abettor. He earnestly advised his hearers to combine against the landlords, declaring that they had everything to justify them in that course in the sight of God and man. GERMANY'S EMPEROR. He May Recover from His Present Attack, but Will Never Be Folly Restored. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. London, Nov. 2. It is asserted in competent financial circles, both here and in Berlin, that while the Emperor of Germany may possibly re cover from his present attack sufficiently to en able him to leave his bed for a few hours each day, bis condition is sufficient to warrant the assumption that he will never regain full health. This statement may, of course, be made to influence stock-jobliing operations, but wellinformed persons in other circles profess to have information inducing the belief that the Kaiser is suffering his last illness, and scout tbe suggestion that the stories in circulation have oo other foundation than the desire of their authors to influence prices. The Berlin bourse, though not excited, is still very sensitive, owing to the difficulty of obtaining palace information as to tbe Emperor's condition, and is likely at any time to assume panicky conditions. A Berlin dispatch reports that the Emperor is not yet able to rise, but the disturbing svmptoms are abating. The pain at the base of the spine continues especially acute with any movement THE BATTENBERGS. The Children of Princess Beatrice Are Mot Royal, and Never Can Be. Labouchere's Cable Special. It is all very fine for the Queen to annouace the accouchement of Princess Beatrice in the Gazette and for her to communicate tha interesting circumstance to the Lord Mayor, and to inform the publio that this infant is the first member of the royal family that has been born in Scotland for more than 200 years. The last was the ill-fated Charles L But the awkward fact remains that the children of Princess Beatrice are in reality no more royal personages than John Brown. Princess Beatrice's marriage was morganatic, as was that of Princess Louise, and her children are not born royal, and nothing that the Queen can do well ever make them so. Of course, so long as the Queen lives, things will go smoothly enough with tbe Battenbergs, but in a future reign their anomalous position at court would be exceedingly unpleasant, and, bad as things would be for them in England, it would be far worse at Berlin, Vienna, or St. Petersburg. These children of Princess Beatrice cannot marry into any of the royal families of Ecrope, and the Queen acts neither kindly nor judiciously in making so much elaborate fuss about tha youngest daughter and her family, as when they find tnemselves reduced to their nroper level the fall will be all more severely felt in contrast to their preent prosperous exaltation. Tbe christening of Princess Beatrice's infant daughter is to take place in the private chapel at Windsor Castle during the first week in next month, and Prince Alexander, of Hesse, is coming over for the ceremony. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Mr. Phelps Ventures the Opinion that England Has Too Much Speech-Making. London, Nov. 2. The fiftieth anniversary of the Mechanics' Institute at Nottingham was celebrated with a banquet this evening. The Duke of St. Albans presided. Mr. Phelps, the United States minister, was one of the guests. In a speech Mr. Phelps said the object of popular education was chiefly to give labor . strength and skill. The days of unskilled labor were fast passing away, and better work was demanded of all classes in accordance with the increasing knowledge of the age. The ultimate object of education must be to teach men to reason and think for themselves instead of gettingopinions from newspapers. He deprecated the flood of talk in England, where he said there was a kind of morbid craving for speeches, which, like the craving for other stimulants, was not wholesome. As American minister he made more speeches during his residence in England than he would be allowed to make during the remainder of his life in America, where intervals were allowed for reflection and where the orators were turned loose once in four years. Tbe effect of this was to compel the people to think for themselves. Mrs. Cralk's Famous Novel. Letter in London Daily News. By the decease of this gifted authoress, on the 12th inst, olden Cheltenham has lost its best historian. Her most popular novel, "John Halifax, Gentleman," was written after a sojourn at Charlton Kings, and Cheltenham was described as CcHham. (a lana of ths.t name

formed the boundary between tbe two places.) The graphic descriptions of Mrs. Siddons at tne theater at Coffee-house Yard (long since pulled down), aud tbe Tewkesbury coach taking up at the Fleece, have afforded delight to all Cheltoniaos. Her novel is one of the most popular and best-read books in the publio library, and on our last inquiring for "John Halifax, Gentleman," we learned that it had been taken out by 180 borrowers. Her description of Tewkesbury, tbe old abbey, the little alleys running down to tbe river, the tanner's yard, and the drowsy nature of the streets of the dear, sleepy old town, are most wonderful portraits of a town which Miss Moloch visited only for one day. The latter fact is brought out ro a note received by the writer of this notiee on Sept. 3. It was a reply to a notification that he had ventured to qucte her portraiture of the old houses as the best extant, and proffering her a photograph taken by a workingman connected with a Stroud journal, of the Rose Cottage at Amberley, made famous as the salubrious spot where John Halifax recovered his health. Mrs. Craik's reply ran thus: 8H03TLANDS, Kent, Sept. 2, 1887. Your letter pleasos and touches me extremely. Will you say to the foreman that I shall gratef ally accept a copy of his photo. I never -was at Tewkesbury more than one day, just before I began "John Halifax," about thirty-four years aeo; so that I myself could hardly identify the places. Bat I hope to be at Cheltenham before the end of this month, and mean to take a second look with all these years between. It is it range yet sweet to me in my old age to think I have done some little good in any quarter. Believe me very truly yours, D. M. Ckaik. The Czar Disobeyed In Safety. Berlin Dispatch in London Daily Telegraph. An amusing anecdote comes from Fredensborg, in Denmark, the temporary residence of tbe Russian imperial family. Two of the Czar's children,' who were laid up with measles, refused to take the physic prescribed for them. The attendants insisted in vain. The young people were not to be persuaded. At last the Czar was sent for, and, finding that kind words were of no avail, he began to scold. Even that did not succeed, so, turning to the nurse, the Czar said: "I can do no more; and yet just think that millions of subjects obey me, while these striplings set me at defiance!"

The Vakeel of Dongola, now in Cairo, has offered to reoceupy Dongola, with the help of friendly tribes, if the Egyptian government provide arms and a subsidy of 400,000. The offer was accepted. Bismarck's paper mill at Vat zin, which was burnt last year, has been rebuilt at a cost of 50,000, and is now one of the lareest and most complete establishments in Germany. It is lighted througr -vt with electricity. Its daily productions averages fifteen tons. Bismarck realizes enormous profits every year from this paper mill; also from his distillery and from sales of timber in the forests around Fried richsruhe.

A Girl's Passion for Tobacco. Norwich (H. T.) Telegraph. , A girl about twelve years of age is frequently seen on our streets, and is trnlv an object to ex cite pity. She is poorly clad, and sometimes wears an old blanket over her bead, but more frequently is bareheaded. Her passion is tobacco. She smokes continuously. She enters our groceries and asks for pipe and tobacco. If she obtains the weed that soothes but does not intoxicate, she is perfectly happy. Whatever intellect sbe ever had seems muddled bv her un controlled habit. Her face is pale, and her eyes beavv and dull. Our youthful cigarette smokers should take a good look at this unfortunate girL It might lead them to restrain their appetite for the deadly nicotine. Doesn't Deserve a Statue.

Pullman cars are now running on 81.000 miles of railway, the company having added to its mileage this year 8,000 miles. Deafness and Running Ears. Their Rational Treatment by DR. PARKER. Science is constantly making new discoveries. As our knowledge increases, our treatment of diseases becomes more rational. Perhaps no greater revolution has taken place in the science of Medicine than in Aural Surgery. It is not generally understood that the EAR is fully as delicate an organ as the Eye, for many will allow experiments upon this organ by an ignorant pretender who would recoil from anything much less serious proposed for the Eye. Deafness, within itself, is not a disease, but a symp tom of something producing it. The diseases gener ally met with in treating the ear are: Inflammation of the auricle, or of the canal leading to the tympanum (ear drum) or the drum itself, palopus, tumors, ulcers, inflammation of the eustachian tube, par alysis or atrophy of the auditory nerve, scrofula, catarrh, skin diseases, etc., etc. Deafness, like blind ness, usually commences in one organ. There are many who are deaf in one ear and not aware of it, while others try to conceal the fact, until from sym pathy, both organs become involved, which may im pair the health, besides making the patient gloomy, distrustful acd nervous. The majoiity of ear diseases are chronic; commencing insidiously, giving no warn ing of their approach, impairing the hearing o gradu ally that it is not detected until the seoond stage. The curability dees not depend so much upon the de gree of deafness, length of standing, or age of patient, as it does upon the source from which it emanates. OCR RATIONAL TREATMENT consists o the introduction of electricity, gases or vapors, accom panied by such medicinal agents as each particular case requires, together with constitutional treatment. It is not attended with any pain or inconvenience whatever; can be carried on at home after one inter view, as evidence or our success we ask those inter ested to investigate the references to be had at our office. RUNNING EARS. A discharge from the ear, however slight, is indica tive of a destructive inflammation going on within. The delicate parts of the ear are constantly bathed in the foul discharge, and before one is aware, the organ of hearing is totally destroyed. This frequently oc curs witn children, who otten bear pain without complaining. There is a prevailing opinion that the discharge ought not be stopped, that it will injure the child to do so. This is a grave error; the sooner it is stopped, the better chance the child will have to regain hearing. Let it continue and you take the chances of consigning the child to a deaf and dumb asylum, an idiotie institution, or the grave. This is not overdrawn; for the ear is separated from the brain by only a very thin shell of bone, which in flammation destroys, and the disease extends to the membranes of the brain, which causes death or makes the child an idiot. The remorse of many fond parents who allowed what they thought a harmless discharge from the ear to continue until it was too late, will more than justify this statement. When the discharge is once fully established, no spontaneous (or self) cure need be looked for, as the inflammation becomes chronic and deep-seated, sometimes extending to the bone, and even to the brain, causing fatal results. We can positively cure every case, if necessary, without seeing the patient, therefore if you cannot come, write for question blank. RETURN VISIT OP A. B. BARKER, M. D. SPECIALIST.
