The Enameled and Patent-Leather Trade of America to Be Controlled by Foreigners. New Tons:. July SI. A local paper says: The latest developement iu trusts is tho English syndicate that is trying to corner the enameled and patent-leather trade of all America. It would, perhaps, be better to say syndicates, for tbere are at least three aggregations of KnglisU capital trying to capture this lucrative industry. Thus far nono of them has succeeded to any notable extent, but the schemes have been in progress only a short time. They are going on well enough now, and the only rock ahead is the price at which the firms and corporations owning factories and tanneries are willing to sell out. The details of the transactions havo been kept secret with religious care. For the past three years there has been a ruinous competition in the patent-leather trade, and profits have been small. Uefore that time the makers had a cast-iron combination and kept np prices, and all who manufactured and handled tho article grew rich. The Englishman who are trying to buy out tho lactones and their goodwill regard not so xnnch their cost and actual present worth rathe protits of the past three years. If this diii'erence is ouce adjusted and it probably soon will be tho patent leather and enamtled leather trade of America will presently b owned and manaeed bv Englishmen. There are in the United States twenty-six factories that put enameled and patent leather on tho market. Twenty-three of these are in Newark, nnd their output is 05 per cent, of tho total production. Tueir total capital is about, $5.000.000. They employ about 4,000 men. Made No Public Request. Philadelphia, July Si. The will of the late Charlemagne Tower, who died on Wednesday, at Waterville, X.

Birmingham, Ala., July SI. The excitement over the Lamar county trouble has subsided considerably. Old man Burrows, Allen Burrows and Jim Cash, relatives of the desperate Rcub. were tried to-day, charged with being accessory to the murder of Postmaster Graves. The outlaw father and brother were released, but Cash was put under $1,000 bonds. The militia lias asked to relieved, and will probably get instructions to that effect before morning. The trouble is quieted for tho present, but it is thought the vigilance committee will brinpr about more trouble. A dispatch from Little Rock, ATk., 6ays: "Dr. C. M. D. Cantrell, physician of the Arkansas penitentiary, asserts that Jim Burrows, the Genoa train-robber, died iu the prison hospital Oet, 5, 1SSS. of typhoid malaria. Ho was admitted to tho hospital kept. 'JO. Hospital htoward Davis says the same, and also that he put Burrows's body in the cofliu, and that life was certainly extinct, so thi:t it is pretty certain Jim is not aistin? hi brother, Keub Burrows, in defvinir the officers in Alabama, as reported this morning from Birmingham. Jim Burrows was iu tho penitentiary for safe keep ing until his trial lor the Oenoa (Ark.) tram robbery, which was to have taken place at Texarkana, last December. During his continement Jim had confessed to the crime." BALLET GIRLS TRUST. America's Amazonian Beauties to Be Controlled by a Lot of Blarsted Britishers. Chicago, July 31. All the ballet girls in tho West will soon be under the control of a wealthy English syndicate, which has headquarters and relident partners in Chicago. English capitalists are now looking at the theatrical business of America as well as the beer business, with the view of investing their sovereigns nnd controlling players and play-houses. The intellieeuco that a New York manager had been offered $500,000 for a two-thirds interest in bis house was hardly received from the wires when a novel and extensive trust was discovered within the walls of Chicago itself. W. H. Morton, of the Columbia Theater, is the agent of the British company. Associated with him and interested with Mr. Morton in tho venture are David Henderson, of tho Chicago Opera-house, and. Horace McVicker. It has oecome so diiiicult to secure a good ballet that such a scheme was absolutely necessary, to say nothing of the profits as a business enterprise. Mr. Morton has already secured 8,000 girls for his trust. Somo of them will receive a regular salary. others half pay, but all will bo at Mr. Morton's beck and call. These gentlemen wcro seen and frankly admitted tho existence of such a scheme. 'Tho idea of forming a balletgirls trust," said Mr. Morton, "first occurred to me last month. I enlisted Henderson and McVicker in my cause, and last week au English syndicato purchased a three-fourths interest in our enterprise." Manager Henderson, of tho Chicago Opera-house, said: "Yes, we are interested in tho ballet trust. Mr. McVicker and I are silent partners. Will Morton is the prime mover. We intend to control all the ballet corps in the West, and hereafter all managers will havo to hire their Amazonian beauties from us." llurko'a Extradition Papers Signed. Winnipeg, July 31. A dispatch from Ottawa says: bir John Thompson, Minister of Justice, this afternoon signed a warrant for the extradition of Burke. Tho warrant was sent to Winnincc to-nicht. George W. Hubbard, chief of police, and A. J. Koss, lieutenant, of the Chicago police force, arrived m tho city at noon, to-day. for tho purpose of conducting Martin Burke to tne unicago jail, unlet iiunuarti , says that Burke's friends may make an attempt to rescue tho prisoner, but that ho will take all necessary precautious to prevent tho euccesstui accomplishment ot any such nndertakiiigr. Burke cannot be moved until the warrant for his extradition reaches here from Ottawa. It cannot arrive until Saturday, and the probability is that it will be somo days later.

ENGLAND'S FOREIGN TOLICY. Lord Sallftbary Says It la Always "Feae, with Honor" The War ClontL Lonton, July 31, Lord Salisbury, speaking at the annual ministerial banquet at the Mansion House, this evening, said that England's aim in foreign affairs was always "peace, with honor." Thunder clouds of war still overcast Europe. Concerning the immediate danger of a conflict, he regarded tho vast preparations that had been' made as a great security for peace. The issues involved in war would be so fnghtful that nations shrank from challenging one another. The Egyptian war did not menace the permanent prosperity of that country. The disorder on the frontier would be suppressed. England had entered into engagements not to abandon Egypt until the latter was capable of maintaining her own government in the face of foes, and those engagements England would assuredly fultill. Inferring to Crete, he did not consider that there was any need to fear that the present movement- would lead to an European disturbance. He repudiated tho remotest desiro of seeing England in possession of Crete. Tho reports curretitto that effect throughout the continent were without foundation. Kef erring briefly to Ireland, beheld that the result of tho government's action was the bringing of order and prosperity throughout the country, and that if ever any section of the peasantry believed that their interests lay rather in defying than in obeying the law, that illusion was rapidly disappearing. Mr. Chamberlain, in a speech at Greenwich, to-night, said that tho new Radical party had become the leading section of the Uonie-mlers. They were bent npon making important constitutional changes. Mr. Gladstone did not effectively resist them, while Sir Wm. Veruon-IIarcourt's sword was at the service of tho strongest faction. The close of the fourth resolution of Parliament saw the Home-rulersdisunited and beyond the control of their leaders, while the government party were stronger than ever within aud without Parliament. Ho attacked tho new Radicals as destructive, but not constructive, politicians. He said they had not proposed a single measure that was calculated to add to the happiness of the people, and if the whole of their programme was carried out to-morrow no one would bo tho better for it.

The court-room was crowded w ith peoplo anxious to Lear all the details of the case. When called upon to plead to the indictment, tho prisoner replied, "Not guilty." Michael Mavbnck, a brother of tho de ceased, was called to the witness-stand. Ho admitted that certain bottles that he took from his brother's sick-room did not contain arsenic. The contents of a bottle which was said to contain meat extract had not been given to his brother. There had been quarrels between his brother and his wife. A woman's name had been mentioned during the quarrels, and airs. .May dhck naa tnreatened to secure a separation from her hus band. Dr. Honner testihed that the deceased had shown him prescriptions for sexual nervic tonics whicli he had received from a New York physician. Tho prescriptions called for no arsenic.

L The fast passenger train that left Hamilton at 7 o'clock to night going wost collided with a freight coming east, at a bend in the road at Ogleton, two miles east of Oxford. The "pusher" is an engine used with freight trains to assist their engine by pushing at the rear of the train. Thcso pushers follow as far as Connersvillo, and return to Hamilton with freight cars. It was a pusher running wild, returning from Conuersville, that collided with the passenger train, which was running at a very high speed. The place is remote from a telegraph station, and definite news is hard to obtain. It is known, however, that it was a bad smash-up. Fireman Lee was killed out right; a Mr. Dade is dying; baggage-master Shields was killed; engineer Dougherty was badly hurt, and Dan Brannan, a tireman, was severely hurt. Seven of the injured were brought to Hamilton by a relief train to-night. It 19 believed that the number of killed and injured will not be greater than twelve or fonrteen. This report was obtained by telephone from Hamilton, and the news there at this hour is not very definite. The Commercial-Gazetted Oxford special says that at Ogleton. two miles east of Oxford, the thunder-bolt West-bound passenger train collided with an eastbound freight engine. Cassins Caldwell, fireman of the freight engine, was killed. John Dougherty, engineer of the freight, was badly brnid. Ha taken Ml the blamo on himself, and says he forgot his orders.

THE BrniUXG-SEA SEIZURES. England ot Elfcely to Mk Trouble Orer the Capture of Illegal Sealing Vessels. Epcctul Ut lite ImUaijaitolts Joun:L "Washington, July SI. The State Department has not yet received any demand for the release of tho Canadian sealing vessel Black Diamond, hut such a demand is expected by somo as eoon a the British gor- , ernment learns officially of the seizure. Jfo serious trouble with Great Britain is apprehended by department officials, for the reason that it is to the interest of Great Britain, and all other great commercial countries, that these seals be preserved from the slaughter by piratical sealing crafts. The United States, they eay, protects them against our own and loreign poachers alike. Assistant Secretary Batcheller, talking, todr.y, to a reporter, said that tho Treasury Department had no part in tho political or diplomatic eido of the question. They found the law on tho statute books, he said, and it was their duty to enforce it. Moreover, they had the proclamation of the President, whichannouueed that it was the purpose of tbn administration that it should be enforced. 'I don't see how there can be much trouble about it." he said, "for no nation can ali'ord to throw these lisberiea opeu to destruction. Tho commercial iutere.ts ot the world aro too seriously involved. A groat commercial nation like England could not aflord to have this destruction go ' n. The protection w give is for the good of the whole world. The habits of the seal are well known. They make three visits to these islands. On the last visit, wlien they are not broeding. or with youuer, they aro taken. We limit tho number that may bo taken in any one year, and provide that tho female shall be preserved, only 5 per cent, of the catcli being allowed to be of that sex. At certain times of the year tbey disappear. No one knows wherethey co perhaps out in the dtep water. Again they are been, in the sea far from shore. There is where they are taken by these poachers. and the mothers with young are tho ones that suffer, because they are the only ones to be got at in Any numbers. By killing the females when with young, this way, th whole brood would soon be destroyed. England can't afford to have this done." What Secretary lllalne Sayi. Bangor. Me., July SI. As Secretary Blaine passed through this city this evening, en route to Bar Harbor, a reporter called bis attention to a declaration of a Boston paper to the effect that it would be impossible for the national government to "sustain tie pretension f Secretary Blalno that Behring sea is distinctly American water." The Secretary of State 6impl3' remarked that it might be well for the paper in question toindicate the occasion, official or unofficial, whero he had said anything at all on that point Mr. Blaine made the further statement that everything done on the fur-seal question since March last Hi 1 11 ill. J was in mrai compliance wnn iub directions contained in the act of Congress, which was approved by President Cleveland on the last day of his term. Tha Canadians Are Indignant. Ottawa, Ont., July Si. Tho latest account of piracy by the United States authorities in Behring sea continues to be much discussed in official circles. A dispatch has been received' at the fisheries department from Mr. Baker, M. P., giving additional particulars of the seizure of the Black Diamond. It appears that the vessel was seized when seventy miles from land. Mr. Baker says that a strong feeling of resentment and indignation has been engendered among the inhabitants of British Co lumbi) by this wanton outrage, and that a meeting of citizens of Victoria is to be held to express their indignation. This dispatch was under consideration by tbe council yesterday. Until tho official report is before the government no action can be taken, and theMinister of Customs accordingly telegraphed to the collector at Victoria to forward full particulars without loss of time. Collector llouilv'a reply was received by Hon. Mr. Bowell last evening, but it appeared that the information ho has to give is no fuller than that already published. A dispatch from Victoria, B. C, says: Indignation is felt here over the heirure of the schooner Black Diamond in Behring sea by the United States revenuo cutter Kichard Iinsh. A public meeting will probably be held and resolutions passed lor transmission to the imperial Parliament, asking that the imperial government interfere in behalf of British vessels engaged in the sealinz trade. It is believed here that if but one man has been placed aboard tho Black Diamond her captain will not obey tho Bush's orders, and will sail for Victoria instead of fcitka. NOVEL COLONIZATION SCIIE3IE. Proposition to Remove the Icelanders from Their Sterile Home to Alaska. Special to too IodiaiitDoUs Joor&ai . Washington, July SI. Among persons of a scientific turn of mind a certain project of international importance has been quietly discussed, and it only needs publicity to place the subject in the fore front of a class of topics always of interest to tho people of this country. It is nothing mora nor less than the transplantation of tho entiro population of Iceland (75,000 persons) to the most habitable part of Alaska. The historic island of Iceland, always a place of interest on account of the culture, honesty and high-mindedness of its people, is the embodiment, perhaps, more near than mother Norway herself, of the old Norse spirit. Cut off for a Urge portion of the year from all the world, living on a sterile soil, constantly becoming more so, on account of the increase of lava from volcanoes and of the sediment of the geysers; living in an atmosphere of extreme cold, with summer too short to produce sufficient crops of pram, these brave and cheery people have barely sustained themselves on a large island duringthe centnriei tbev have resided there. Many of t&em, it is said, are willing to move awa' to a mor genial climate, or at least to a more fruitful territory. Their idea is not to go to a region wholly different, where all the con ditionsof life will be reversed, but to a land in the latitude, or nearly in the latitude of Iceland. They would not be euiil5 acclimated in a country with a high ternperatnre. Tho movement looking to their settle ment in the United Mates is cue of prim interest, not only to the Scandinavian citizens of the Northwest, but also to the larger number of citirens who have in their veins tL blood of some of the conquerors of Britain in the fifth, and ninth and tenth cenutries. The proposition is one of vast importance in a cosmopolitan sense, us it involves tho
