A. K. Convention, Kte. Special to Enquirer-Sun. Atlanta, Ga., August 25.—A serious cutting affray occurred at a house of ill fame about midnight last night which mnv cost Bart Wall his life. He is a young man who runs on the Central railroad and who Is well known here. The affair is shrouded in mystery, at least so far as the liamns of the parties who did the cutting are Con cerned. There were several difficulties, in which a number of young men were ■engaged, all occurring at the same place within an hour and a half. This morning Recorder Anderson held quite a levee, but nobody was connected with the cutting. The case was postponed until to-morrow morning to enable the prosecution to furtfier investigate the affair, and also to see what will be the re sult of young Wall’s wounds. He is lying in a critical condition at Joy street hospi tal. and will probably not live through the day. He has several bad cuts, but the one which imperils his life is a horrid gash in ills right breast which penetrates the lung Alf. Crater, of pedestrian fame, U. W. Brooks and a man named Ellison are held in connection with the affair, and the re sult of the hearing to-morrow is awaited with interest. Later.—Bart Wall died from his wounds *nd a jury was empanelled at the Joy street hospital this afternoon. Several witnesses were examined and the hearing was adjourned till 10 o’clock to-morrow. The only important testimony adduced was that of Joe Bugg, a negro hackman, who was in the hack in front of the bagnio where the difficulty occurred. He testified to a difficulty between several par ties in the house, which was resumed on the sidewalk in front of the house. One man was struck down by the fence, and a scuffle ensued upon the ground. The man on top said, as he got up to run away : “Damn you : I’ve fixed you now.” This man he recognized as Ellison. The man who was underneath he did not recognize when he ran off, but says he ran into the street in which Bart Wall was found afterwards. There were a number of young men in the party when the diffi culty occurred, but they have not been identified, and all the suspected parties are reticent., When the jury adjourned this afternoon a detective was detailed to work up the case, and have all the wit-* nesses present to-morrow morning. An autopsy will also be-had then. Tlio ('uphill ComiiiInnIoii. Atlanta, August 25.—The capital com mission held the usual monthly session to day and inspected the building and audited the accounts.

A Bitter Attiirk on Sum Jones mid Sum Small, j Cincinnati, August 23.—One of the fea tures of the forthcoming exposition will be a big street parade, its purpose being to attract visitors from the interior. 'I lie marshalis a man of energy and has ap- j pointed a numerous staff, comprised oi prominent citizens of all classes. Among those whom he lias selected are the evan gelists, Ham Jones and 8am Small, who iiave proved good advertising cards ai numerous camp meetings. It appears that the assignment of these gen’lemon to a place in the procession was a mistake, the Volks Freund, the leading German daily, | of this morning says: “The grand marshal of the exposition parade (Capt. A. H. Mattox) lias in ins otherwise commendable zeal for the good cause had the misfortune to invite tiiose crazy pulpit clowns, the ‘Rev.’ Sam Jones and the ‘Iiev.’ -Sam Small, who are just now infesting the vicinity oi Cincinnati and recruiting for the Longview insane asylum, to serve as special adjutants, cotli have signified their acceptance, and they will, it is said, ride at the head oi the pro cession on either side of the grand mar shal. Whether the project will really be carried out of whether Capt. Mattox,when he finds out what we communicate below, will make a change in the .programme we . cannot predict; but we will say in all se riousness to every German-Amerlcan ivbo has been allotted to the staff of the grand .marshal that he will degrade himsell and .his family if he trots behind the above named individuals in the parade. One of these, namely, the ‘Rev.’ Sam Jones, m a recent so-called sermon in Urbana, Ohio, gave utterance to the following low and V *“^r5mQermaiis are trying to take this country, and the question fur you people to settle is, Shall we turn this uountry oyer to the devil, the Dutch, and the dun cow ? 1 hope the day will come when we preach ers will take hold of these things and thunder them from the pulpit like hell fire.’ “The above was uttered with a full seuse oi his responsibility by Sam Jones, and the utterances and opinions of Sam Small are entirely of the same stripe, and honorable Germaii-Amerlciins are expected to march behind such shameless iellows in the pa rade. Bah! The Germans, therefore, belong between the devil and the dirtv cow? This is the opinion publicly ex pressed of the designated leaders of the procession, the‘Rev.’Sam Jones and the ‘Kev.’lSam Small. “In the list of persons named on the grand marshal’s staff published yesterday there are dozens of names of our most dis tinguished German citizens. Will these gentlemen lower themselves to serve as the followers ot these men In the proces sion? We doubt it, or rather we regard it as impossible, and the German public may expect that they will Immediately otter the alternative to Capt. Mattox either to desist from the project of having these miserable circus preachers participate in the procession or to give up the idea of co operation on the part of the Germans.” Capt, Mattox said to-day that upon in quiry he had found that the utterance of the Volks Freund expressed the opinion of Germans generally. He said he had forwarded the invitations to Sam Jones and Sam Small to serve on his stall', and he was at a loss how to remedy the matter. THE ENEMY AT HER GATES. Irrliinil Kri'ji, Kiiirlaml from Tnkiiu a Li-aJinir Part In European Affairs. New York Herald. The landlords in many places feel exas perated against the nationalist tenantry, and at the same time are inspired with new courage by the advent of a conservative ministry. I have no doubt they will en deavor to enforce with all the rigor of an unpitying law what they have been taught so long to regard ns their rights. Under such conditions it is utterly impossible to repress all outrage in Ireland. Parnell may do his best, Davitt may do his best, the land league may do its best to maintain order over the country. General order will be maintained. The voice of Parnell and the league will be listened to, but here and there disosder will be inevitable and irrepressible, born as it is of men’s natural passions, of men’s unnatural sufferings. The result is, the government will next season try to bring m a coercion bill. What then? Then, if the secession liberals stand by their promises to resist coercion with out remedial measures, the tories will go out or will have to apply their minds be forehand to the task of devising remedial measures. Duly one remedial measure is worthy of considering, and that is home rule. Will the tories take that jump? Ou the whole, I am inclined to think they will. There is no way of keeping long in office without settling the Irish question. I am disposed to think the tories are de termined to keep long in office if they pos sibly can. Some men, whose judgment I highly respect, are of the opinion that the con servatives will divert the attention of the country from home politics by finding an excuse for engaging in a foreign war. Well, if they want such an excuse they have it ready in their hands in the papers about Batoum and Russia just laid before parliament. Russia simply snubs our late foreign secretary, and tells him the Rus sian government is alone to judge whether Russia has kept or broken her engage ments; so if it is the tory cue to fight they have got their cue now. But I do not be lieve the wildest tory is inclined to bring on a war with Russia while the Irish ques tion is still unsettled. Several years ago Bismarck said to an American statesman, who told me the story: “England is counted out of Euro pean politics while Ireland remains as an enemy at her gates.” Gladstone saw this. Among other things he would have turned the enemy at the gate into a friend. It he had had his way that grand result would have been accomplished. But even the tories must see the danger of that enemy at the gate. They must turn him into a friend or must take good care not to get into a quarrel with an enemy outside the gate. ^ Inapretor of Public Works. New York, August 25.—Mayor Grace to-day appointed Gen. Joint Newton, chief of engineers, U. S. A., as commissioner of public works, vice Squire, removed. Tin- mayor arrived at his office in the city hall shortly before 4 p. m. and met Gen. New- j ton, who said he would accept. The gen- I eral then hurried away in time to take the i 4:30 p. m. train for Washington, where he > will make arrangements to be placed upon ; the retired list of the army. His term oi' j office as commissioner of public works will expire May 1, 1889. He would go on | the army retired list by reason of age in | 1887. | VinitilKll Stepper*. Saratoga, N.

An llltclliei'lit Juror. There is an American story of a juror in a trial for murder in one of the backwoods settlements of the far west. Great diffi culty had been experienced in getting a jury; eleven jurors had at last been sworn in, and there remained only one man of ! the panel. He was a small, lean, lank fei- 1 low with a shrewd face and an uncouth demeanor, and bis apparel seemed to sho w | that never before had he been within i sight or sound ot civilization. He was | asked the usual questions as to whether he | had formed anv opinions about the case, whether he had any prejudice against the prisoner,or whether he was conscientiously opposed to capital punishment. To ail these questions he returned a decided negative. The judge and the counsel for i the prosecution and for the defence did 1 not any of them specially like the mail’s | manner, but it was late and jurors were j scarce, and so he was accepted. In accord ance with au old form surviving strangely 1 in out-of-the-way places, he was set before [ the alleged murderer and the judge said: ! “Juror, look upon the prisoner; prisoner, | look on the juror." When this command | was given, the little man leaned forward and scanned the culprit carefully from head to foot for some moments; then he raised his head and turned to the judge and said, in a firm and solemn voice: “Yes, iudge, I think he is guilty!”—Saturday Review. quit HU Finking. Albany Argur. ADropos of a short visit that tfcepreai- qeui will uiukc la Albany, the story-teller of the Argus narrates this Incident of one , of his fishing trips in one of the creeks of ' Canada, opposite Grand Island, In Niagara | river: “It was when he was governor, and ' the writer was an eye-witness to his con scientious discharge of a public duty. A messenger had been sent up from Albany with two important requisitions for him • sign immediately. The messenger arrived , in Buffalo in the early morn, but found that Mr. Cleveland had gone fishing -just I where, nobody knew definitely, but he wus j in some of the Canada creeks opposite Grand Island. There was nothing else to do but hunt him up, and with a steam launch and searching friends the hunt began, which lasted nearly the whole day. Finally he was found, complacently sitting in the stern of a boat, intently fishing for bass in Black creek. The steam launch ran up to his boat, and he was informed by the messenger that his perusal and sig nature were demanded upon the requi sitions, in order that the heaver of them could catch the evening train for Albany, where sheriffs were waiting for them, j He took the papers, and, after carefully reading them, said they I met nil approval, hut lie could not sign ! them as ne was in Canada. ‘Oh! sign them here. Grover!’ exclaimed his friend: ‘nobody will know any different.’ But i the law prohibits me signing such papers | outside the state, and tlint settles it,’ was i iiis firm answer. So he picked up liis fish ing tackle, g ive his fish away to the boat- man, jumped Into the steam launch, was taken to Buffalo, and in liis own law office ; he signed the requisitions. The sheriffs | received the papers in Albany the next morning, and before night they had the criminals they were after ou their way to the places wqere the crimes were com mitted.” Tm> Vi'lulilioi'i; Opinion,. St. St. Louts Globe-Democrat. Chicago Managing Editor to City Editor •—How was the thermometer to-day ? City Editor—The highest was about 100 in tlie shade. Managing Editor—Any sunstrokes? Ctty Editor—Yes, a great many. Managing Editor—Well, don’t do like those St. Louis papers. They puldish the exact facts and scare people. You see, Chicago is a summer resort, and we must keep up its Ireputation for that. It will never no to talk about 100 or people dying of sunstroke. City Editor—What shall I say? Managing Editor—Just say that the weather was a tritie warm, but that there was a fine breeze blowing from the lake, which moderated the intensity of the sun’s rays to a very enjoyable degree, and thut light summer overcoats wore in great de mand. City Editor—How about the sunstroke eases from t he coroner’s office. Managing Editor—Well, you had better divide them up between apoplexy, heart disease and “cause unknown.” It will never do to lose sight of the “summer, re sort” idea. Chicago Tribune: The temperature in St. Louis day before yesterday was 107 de grees in the shade. By a coincidence, at a seance held in that town on Monday night, the spirit of a recently deceased St. Louisan began talking with the medium. “Where are you?” said the medium. “In sheol, where I expect to remain for a time,” was the response. “Have you met many friends?” asked the medium.' “Yes,” replied the spirit; “it seems like home again.” “How is the thermometer?” “High, but comfortable—nothing like St. Louis.” And the medium closed the seance, vis ited the nearest drug store, partook of a lethal dose of morphine, and went that night, wicked as she was, to where it was cooler. This would be a comparatively happy world if everybody knew the virtues of SMITH’S BILE BEANS as a family med icine, and acted upon that knowledge. One-half the misery of the world comes from ailments which arise from a bad ! stomach or a bad liver. Chiefest among I these are dyspepsia, biliousness, sick head ache and neuralgia. BILE BEANS will cure all of these, lie- sides all miasmatic diseases. Dose: One in MARKETS BY TE LEGItAIMf. j Fintincinl. Lottnow. August 25. —4 p. m.— Consols— money 10113-16, account 101 13-16.
