LATEST DISPATCHES.

CONVICTED ANARCHISTS. Parsons' Appeal, and What Is Said of It-HIs Companions Refuse to Talk. Pabsoxs" letter "to the American people" v : lie main topic of discussion in la. m steles yesterday, says a Chicago special of Friday. Its sentiments met with general approval from the radical element arid from many who are classed as conservatives. The anarchists, however, regard it as a bid for sympathy, and are displeased that Parsons should write and circulate any letter through the "capitalistic pres. The Socialist Publishing Company is about to print toe Supreme Court decision in pamphlet form, with comments upon what it considers the weak points. I he proceeds will be turned over to the Defense Committee. Spies was asked what lie thought of Parsons' manifesto to the public. "You must excuse me," he re plied, "but I made up my mind long ago not to have anything to say to the news papers. I meant it. I don't wish to be discourteous, but it is useless to ask me anything about the case." Parsons was as&ed what ha had to say about the way the newspapers had treated his appeal to the people. "I've nothing to complain of," he repiied. Suppose your friends succeed in obtaining a commutation, will you " "Stop! don't ask me that I know what yon are going to say and I really can't let you go on. I don't want to talk on the subject." Parsons is ery quiet and subdued nowadays, and a remarkable change has come over his wife's demeanor. The Amnesty Association is endeavoring to secure the passage of resolutions asking executive clemency by labor organizations here and elsewhere, A number of these bodies have adopted such resolutions. Governor Ogleaby is deluged with correspondence relating to the anarchists. RAILROAD CONSOLIDATION. The Cleveland and State Line and the NickelPlate Wedded. A spkciaii meeting of the stockholders of the Cleveland and State Line Kailroad Company was held at Cleveland on Friday. The object of the meeting was fulfilled by the adoption of an agreement to consolidate the company with the New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad Company, which represents the Nickel-Plate lioad in New York and Pennsylvania, and the Fort Wayne and Illinois Railroad Company,

President and Mrs. Cleveland were heartily received, and the President, Justice Miller, and Mr. Kasson delivered addresses. A reception was given subsequently to Mrs. Cleveland, and Mr. Childs drove the Presidential party cut to his residence, where Mrs. Cleveland planted a tree, and was given the choice of eight thoroughbred Jerseys as a present. A banquet was given by the Hibernian Society, which was attended by President Cleveland, and in the evening a grand banquet was given by the literary societies of Philadelphia to President Cleveland. There was a brilliant gathering at the Academy of Music on the occasion, and it is proposed to erect a memorial monument to commemorate the celebration. The stringency in the money market ot New York is discussed from various points of view by leading bankers and merchants

I warn them not to take the lives of our martyrs in Chicago. I demand that they bo set free. Let there'be a social revolution. " The Constitutional celebration was continued at Philadelphia, on Friday, the iota, when about half a million Btiangers are said to have been in the city. The President, attended by Secretary Bayard, exPresident Hayes and other notabilities, reviewed the employes of the Custom House, and was afterward tendered a reception at the Commercial Exchange, where he made a brief address, urging the importance of a more active interest and participation in public Affairs by the business classes. From the Exchange the Presidential party proceeded to Broad and W alnut streets, where they reviewed the great military parade, whioh was led by Lieutenant General Sheridan. About 30, 000 men were in line. A Philadelphia dispatch says: Tlit military parade was uuder command of Geii. Stierldan. It included nearly tiu.OJ unifcrmed soldiers, and, taken as a whole, was perhaps never equaled by any similar do nr. xietration of modern times. Tne sounds of fife and drum early told that preparations were bing made for the grand street demonstration of the cation's protectors. Even during the time of the war of the rebellion there were not as it any soldiers in Philadelphia. The arrival of the Presidential party was the signal for repeated cheering, and when the Chief Magistrate made his way to the rostrum at the lower end of the hall cheering b rcke out again, and the names of Secretary Bayard, Governor Beaver, George W. Chi Id a, Mavor Fitter, and A. J. Drexel were also cheered. President Colby introduced the President The cheering broke out again, aud it was some time before Mr. Cleveland could be heard. He said: "I am glad I have an opportunity to meet so large a representation of the business men of Philadelphia. It is well that we should not entirely forget in the midst of onr centennial jubilee that the aim aud purposa of good government tend, after all, to the advancement of the material interests of the people and the increase of their trade and commerce. The thought has sometimes occurred to me that in the hurry and crush of business there might well be infused a little more patriotism than we are wont to sea, and a little more recognition of the fact that a wholesale political sentiment is closely related not only to the general good but to the general success of business. Of eourie our citizens engaged in business are quick to see the bearing of any policy which the Government may adopt, as it affects their personal success and their accumulation. But I would like to see that broad and patriotic sentiment imong them which can see beyond their peculiar personal interests, and which can recognise that the advancement of the satire eeuntry is an object for which they may well strive, even sometimes to the diminution of the constantly increasing profits. Must we always look for the political opinions of onr business men precisely where they suppose their immediate peouniax y advantage is found? I know how vain it is to hope for the eradication of a selfish motive in ail the affairs of life, but I am reminded that we celebrate to-day the triumphs of patriotism over selfishness. Will any one say that the eon cessions of the Constitution were not well made, or that we are not to-day in the full enjoyment of the blessings resulting from a due regard for all the conflicting interests represented by the different titates which were united a hundred years ago? I believe the complete benefits promised to the people by our form of government can only be secured by an exercise of the same spirit of toleration for each other's rights and interests in which it had its birth. This spirit will prevail when the business men of the country cultivate political thought, when they cease to act for their purely selfish and exclusive benefit. I am of the opinion that there is no place in the country where such a condition can be so

EAST. Coopeb Fxion was packed Monday night, says a New York di3pateh, with anarchists and socialists. The aut&nce numbered fully 3,500, and assembled to protest against the hanging of the condemned Chicago anarchists. The pictures of the doomed bomb-throwers looked down from the front of the platform. They were draped with red and black and wreathed with smilax, A black and a red banner stood in the rear of the stage. A number of incendiary speeches were made. But the hero of the night was Johann Most. "Frjenda and anarchists,1' said he, "isitun-

until the treasury of the Defense Committee has received subs tan ial contributions. The plan, as revised and approved by Captain Black, comprehends three departments of work: 1. That directly under the management of the Defense Committee of raising funds and carrying the ease to the United States Supreme Court. 2. That under the management of the Amnesty Association of securing a mammoth petition for Executive clrmoncy and laying the same before Governor Ogleshv. 3. That of the Woman's Belief Society of collecting moans for

tne support of tne f aminos of tho condemned anarchists. All these departments are now iu full blast. The Defense Committee, with Dr. Ernest Schmidt at its head, has sent out an appeal as far as the maiJs -will carry it to labor organizations and socialistic societies all over the world, lt has already sent out one delegate to further this work, and Will wsnd others in a short lime.

The announcement of the verd ct did not appear to have any visible effect on him, and when his father left the courtroom tbe defendant remained in hii? chair. Counsel for the defense gave the customary notice of a motion for a new trial, A frionx City special 6ays: "The verdict is considerable of a surprise here, where the facts nro all known. The failure of securing a conviction in the Arensdorf case, and th.- apEarent lack of interest in the present trial, as led ail to believe that the jury would not do more than disagree. It is now hinted that Munohrath may be induced to talk." The publication of the schedule of assets and liabilities of "William Dresbach, the leader of tho recent wheat ring, has cieated a sensation in commercial circles in San Francisco- According to tLis statement Drenbach's liabilities will reach the neighborhood of $7,500,00(1, and Kosenfeld's liabilities are given at $1J37,'jrj. Airainst these liabilities tho assets foot up to something over $3,000,000. In the Supremo Court at Ottawa, 111,, on Tuesday, Captain Black, counsel for Spies et aL, made a motion to withdrav the record in tho case for thirty days. The motion was denied. Justice Sheldon said that though frequently made it had never been granted in that court, that an ex-Judsre of the Court once by similar motion asked to take the records of a caso from the Court House to the hotel, and it was denied. Captain Black was very much excited at tho result of this motion and decision of the Court. He consulted Clerk Taylor as to the size of tho record and cost. Ha said

that his clients were noor: that ther3 was

little if any money in the pav for tho record, which

will cost about 4,000. A. I!. Parsons, one of the sever, condemned anarchists publishes in tho Chicago papers on address to the American people. Parsons reviews the decision of the Illinois Supreme Court at some length, asserts his innocence of any participation in or responsibility for the H&ynarket massacre, and declares that he doos not desire a commutation of his sentence to imprisonment. Captain Black has gone to New York to conter with Gen. Rojer A. Pryor regarding the anarchist cases. Gen. Butler declares that he has not been asked to take rmrt in the case, but that he would not hesitate to do so if solicited, and he could see his w ay clear to be of any real service. A circular printed in Engliuh and German has been extensively circulated among Chicago workingmen of tl.a anarchist type. Several of these chculars came into tho hands of the police, md as the contents were deemed innanima :ory in their character instructions were sent to the various stations to arrest any person found distributing them. The George Weber Brewing Company

of Cincinnati has failed. Liabilities, $012,000; assets, $228,000.

Fire swept away seven of the best business blocks of Iron wood, Mich., much in the same manner as three months ago its twin sister Wisconsin town, Hurley, just across the Montreal River., was devastated. The loss is estimated at about $150,000, with practically no insurance. At one time the entire town was threatened, Arkansas City (Kan.) dispatch: WA disastrous wreck occurred on the Gulf Division of the Southern Kansas Railroad at Guthrie, Indian Territory. A light engine and oonstruction train collided while both were moving at a high rate of speed. The two engines and twelve freight cars were

piled in a heap, and the list of killed . and

wounded is large. Engineer Charles Pearson, of the light engine, was fatally crushed, and his fireman, Charles Stewart, seriously hurt It is rumored that a large number of the workmen were killed, but details are meager. Most reports nay that eight to ten were killed or wounded. " Prejudice against mixed schools, it seems, is not wholly confined to the South. The last Ohio Legislature repealed the statute authorizing the establishment of separate schools for colored pupils. The attempts of the colored children to secure admission to the white schools ha ve created great commotion in various parts of the State, and in some places the schools have been closed. SCH7TH. David Knioht, a Baptist minister of Caldwell County, North Carolina, iaas deserted his wife and twelve children and eloped with his mother-in-law. A Fort Worth (Tex.) special gays the Texas and Pacific east-bound through express from San Francisco was robbed near Benbrook, where the robbery of June 3 occurred. Two men mounted the cab as the train pulled out oi Benbrook and covered the engineer with revolvers. When the train was on a high trestle the engineer was ordered to stop. After pulling up so the express was off the trestle the engineer and fireman were marched back to the express car under guard of two men who were on the grounds when the engine stopped. The leader of the robbers ordered the Pacific express messenger to open his car. Mnsenger Moloney paid no attention to the order. After a dozen shots were fired into the car the door was opened. One of the robbers entered the car, emptied the safe, and at once started for the mail-car, wfcich was entered without any resistance. Every registered letter in the car was secure 3. There were guards on the train, but they made no show of fight further than to prepare to defend the passengers. The robbers made no effort to enter the passenger coaches. The amount of booty is placed as high as $30,000. WASHINGTON. A revenue measure i promised in Congress this w inter, on the statement of a Kentucky Democrat, that will give little satisfaction to Mr. Randall's friends.

POLITICS. The new political combination known an the American party convened at Philadelphia and adopted an elaborate platform. It denounces the presout eyHlem of immigration aud naturalization, and ciargca that ), unlet ot foreign immigrants are tue refuse of European countries and are mint to become American citizens, "banding together iu tiucietios for the destruction of private property and poinona! liberty, becoming the political and social agitators of every cause lookiug to tho dCHtructlon of privata rights, beading and encouraging all disturbance of labor, seeking to arruv labor against capita), sotting tbom -elves up " as tbe judges of the riglus of tho American people, committing murder, arson, and othor crimes by means of secret organizations, thrusting aside tbe American citizen and wage. worker to mate plaoe for themselves, preventing 1) throats Uie children of American citizens from apprenticeship to trades the enemies of ireo government by tho people," It charges both tho old parties with dodging this question and with pandeiiug to tho worst foreign element in ordor to secure votes, and demands that a Department of Immigration, whose head shall be a i'ablnot oflieer, bo established by Congress to restrict and regulate foreign immigration. It calls lor a revision of tho naturalization laws, miking fourteen yearn' residence requisite for citizenship, and excluding all communists, 6ooialists, nihilist:, anarchists, paupers, and criminals from naturati-ation. It favors tho limiting of roal-est vie holdings i;a area arm value; opposes tho holding of laud by nonresident aliens, and condemns tho ratitinu' of public lands to private and public corporations. In conclusion, the party declares that it "recognizes no North, no bouth, no Kat, and no Wevt in thoso V'uitod States, but one people pledged to our liberty and in Ivpondcnc The Massachusetts Democrats, at Worcester, nominated a full State ticket, with Henry B. Lovering for Governor. A platform was adopted congratulatin g the country upon "the excellence of the administration," declaring that "all the- important offices in the civil service should be filled by persons in sympathy with tbe administration," demanding a "revision of the present unjust and burdensome tariff laws, " and that tho proceeds of the internal revenue tax should be applied to discharge the burdens arising on:; of the late war; extending "sympathy" to Ireland, and favoring tho restriction of immigration. "genehalT Last week's changes in the visible supply of grain in this country show a decrease of 159,309 bushels in wheat, and an increase of 472,952 bushels in corn, 370,440 bushels in oats, 32,042 bushels in rye, and 2t)U,2y bushels in barley. Tho stock of wheat at the present time amounts to 31,071,487 bushels, against 47,540,ti6G bushels a year ago. The trial trip of the Boston, the companion of the Atlanta, appears to have been a success. She not only comes up to the condition of 3,500 horse-power contained in the contract, but she actually obtained a maximum of 4,200 in the trial that is, she is 700 horses better than was called for. Terra, pel Fcego has been explored more thoroughly than at any previouP time, and, contrary to common belief, It has been ascertained ' hat tho archipelago contains valuable farming lands, forests, and mineral deposits. Dispatches from St. John's, N. F.., give particulars of a disastrous gale that destroyed shipping, fishing-gear, wharfing, and caused loss of lifo. Gov. Ross, of New Mexico, in his annual report, says the population of the Territory is rapidly increasing. Only thirtyeight miles of railroad have been constructed during the year. The mining interests are reviiiug. Agriculture is ei:tending, and the great cattle ranches are destined soon to become things of the past. The Governor recommends the repeat of all laws under which iiands can be secured without actual settlement and bona fide improvements; also the establishment of a system of storage basins along the upper liio Grande. The fall of a meteor in New Brunswick, near the Maine border, recently reported, is said to have been a fabrication

FOREIGN.

A son of M. Schnaebels, the French Commissary whose atrest last April caused such a stir, has been imprisoned by the German authorities for crossing the frontier near Chemnot and afiixing a Treasonable placard, bearing the tricolor of Fran ce, upon a tree by the roadside. A Dublin newspaper states taat the British Government has decided to put into force the "suppression" clauses of the coercion act, and that over 200 branches of. the League will be immediately prohibited from holding meeting. There are some iiurprises in the vital statistics of Paris jfor 1886. The births exceeded the deaths ky only 52,520, whereas the excess in 1885 was about 85,000. There were 2,l49 divorces lust year, agfcinst 4,277 the previous year. MARKET REPORTS!, NEW YORK.

Antidotes for Poison. "More than two-thirds of the deaths from poison couLd be avoided if men and women would only acquaint themselves with the simple remedies always at hand in every well-regulated household. " The speaker was a house surgeon at a city hospital. "I see the names of six persons on this record of mine whom I know iniht have been saved had their friends and police known what to do," he continued. "All six persons died bocauso too much time was lost in notify ing th police, calling an ambulance, and in getting the sufferers to the hospital Paris green, rough on rats, and Lui Janum seem to bo the favorite poisomi for suicide. For each of these poisons an antidote can be found in almost every household. The chief points in cases of poisoning are to encourage vomiting, and thus get rid of the iiubstaace; to counteract the poisons by antidotes and to check death by the use of stimulants and artificial respiration. "Bough on rats is simply arsenic. Hardly a day passes but some one suicides by its uee. If on discovering that this poison has boen taken the sutferer is given one or two raw eggs, and the egga are followed up with large draughts of tepid water :.nto which a tablespoonful of salt or mustard has been thrown, the stomach will usually throw the poison off. Theue, supplemented by a dose of castor oil, sweet oil or milk to offset the action of the poison, will usually save the life of the patient. The sumo treatment is the one to be followed when parts green, opium, morphine, paregoric, or laudanum is the poison used. When opium, morphine, pairegcric, or laudanum is swallowed, it is well to give a cup of strong black coffee after the emetic, to apply cold water to the head and neck, and to prevent sleep. These poisons represent Ihe majority of those taken by accident, or by persons intent on suicide, Wheij tartar emetic is taken, after encouraging vomiting, it is well to give milk and strong tea to drink. When poisons like mineral acids are used such as aqua fortis and oil of vitriol after an emetic solutionjj of soda, magnesia, md even of plaster scraped from the vail can be used with good effect, Oxalic and carbolic acid calls for the same treatment af ter using a little Hour and water, the white of an egg, or castor oil in order to protect ho gullet and walls of the stomach. When poison like caustic potash, soda, or lime is u;ed, administer vinegar, lemon, or orange j nice in water, emetics and oiL If pkospaorus is taken, like the end of matches, for instance, keep up the vomiti jg and administer big doses of magnesia in water. Oils in such cases must not be used. For corrosive sublimate administer the white of an egg, flour and water, or milk, and then the emetic. In poisoning from chloroform or illuminating gas, let the patient have fresh air, loosen the clothing and dash cold water about the face and neck. "AH of these antidotes are, as a rule, always at hand, and if used will almost every time save the life of the patient greatly facilitate tbe work of the physician when the oaso comes under his care. Evening Sun, New York. Titles. We do not wonder that Horace Greeley declined having the "Honorable" tacked to his name, for titles are nowadays a perfect drug. Most of those who can, use tbe genuine article, while many oi;heni content themselves with counterfeit dignity, behind which their name basks, in grandeur, like a hog on the sunny side of his sty. We saw a handbill some time since which announced that "Jabez Willoughby, Esq., more universally known as the Necromancer of the East," would perform some sleight of hand tricks in some country" village, tickets 12 J cents; and the supernumeraries of our theaters (who are now called "auxiliary ladies and gentlemen") will soon be announced on the posters as "the Hon. Messrs." and "the Ladies." "Men" and "women" are much rarer than Fejee mermaids.

A contemporary publishes the following wholesome comment on "Titles," addressed by Gen. Charles Leo to Patrick Henry, when the latter was Governor of Virginia: "There is a barbarism crept in amongst us that shocks me extremely. I mean those tinsel epithets with which we are so bespattered; his excellency and 'his honor'; ''the honorable" president of some 'honorable convention. This fulsome, nauseating cant may be well enough adapted to barbarous monarchies, or to gratify the unadulterated pride of the magnifici in pompous aristocracies; but in a great, free, manly commonwealth, it is quite abominable; for my own part, I would as lief chew bitter aloes, as be cram aed with 'your excellency,1 with which 1 am daily pestered.
