Dublin, August 26.—The Express, con
servative, says that serious trouble is brew
ing in the Parnellite camp. “The danger
rises,” the Express says, “from the threat
ening attitude of a man who once was deep
in the secret of the Parnellite conclave,
and his former associates are now consider
ing the question os to whether he can be
silenced. ’
ALL QUIET IN BELFAST.
Belfast, August 26.—Everything is
quiet here to-day. Loose paving stones
tliat have been used as missiles and broken
glass mark the scene of last night’s riot.
The Orangemen have called a meeting for
to-night to consider the best means of
helping to restore order. Rev. Hugh
Hannh, D. D., of Saint Enoch’s
church, has published a letter in
reference to the rioting yesterday evening
on Shank Hill road, lie advises all re
spectable residents of Belfast to remain at
their homes as closely as possible for some
days. He says he fears the Belfast dis
orders are to be revived in a worse form
than ever and that future loss of life
in the riots will be much more
dreadful than it has been hitherto. The
soldiers, the doctor says, will be obliged to
fire upon the citizens. Thirty men who
have been convicted of taking an active
§ art in the recent riots were sentenced to-
ay to various terms of imprisonment, one
of them to thirteen months. A number »f
other men arrested on the same charge
were committed for trial.
AN EVICTION PARTY.
Dublin, August 26.—Five hundred po
licemen and troops have left for Byrr to
assist at the evictions on the estate of
Marquis Clanricarde in Galway. The Byrr

evicting party with provisions or means of
conveyance.

THE PRINCE FREE AND SAFE.
London, August 26.—The British foreign
office has been informed that Prince Alex
ander is both safe and free, and is on bis
way to his home in Darmstadt. Dispatches
state that after being conveyed out of Bul
garia, the prince was set free at Reni. It
is believed here that when Prince Alexan
der learns of a counter revolution in his
favor, he will at once return- to (Sofia. His
presence there will, it is believed, quell all
disorder and restore peace to the country.
ALLOWED TO PROCEED TO GERMANY.
Vif.nna. August 26—The czar has per
mitted Prince Alexander to proceed to
Germany by way of Odessa.
THE PRINCE INVITED TO RETURN.
London, August 26.—Sir J. Ferguson,

house of commons this afternoon that
loyal troops had entered Sofia on Tuesday
with the consent of the powers, The ex

resume his rule in Bulgaria.

ander crossed the Austro-Russian frontier
at Wolotohiska to-day. The yacht which
conveyed Alexander to Reni has returned

military school.
NO KNOWLEDGE OF IT.
London, August 20.—The Russian
charge d’affairs has had an interview with
the foreign secretary. He protested against
the insulting language of the English press,
and reaffirms that the czar had no knowl
edge, of the Bulgarian conspiracy.
When l’rinee Alexander received the |
news of the success of bis friends in Bul
garia he was deeply moved. He tele- I
graphed to his father that he would visit .
Damasot anyhow before returning to Bul
garia. 'l’lu- Russians at Reni treated
Prince Alexander and bis brother with j
indignity. They refused to allow even a j
servant to accompany Alexander, saying, 1

motion, and Russell proceeded to contend
that the policy of the government was to
degrade Ireland to a level of a savage and
barbarous country.
WHY HE WAS FIRED.
Mr. Drought, the English clergyman
who was expelled from France, writes to
the papers as follows: “I did not meddle
in French politics, but simply forwarded a
letter expressing sympathy to Due D’Au-
male, who had subscribed largely to the
support of my church.”
A WORTHY TASK.
The Dally News says: To promate the
progress of the people which has come out
of the Zankofi 1 affair in such an admirable
manner, is a task to which England can
worthily apply herself diplomatically.
THE MAD STONE HUMBUG.

Chicago, August 26.—A a special dis
patch from Fort Worth, Texas, says: On
the farm of W. K. Gandy, near this city,
August 8th, a rabid dog bit Walter Gandy,
a four-year-old boy, in the face. Several
of the animal’s teeth entered his flesh in
the cheek above the eye. The little boy
did not suffer except from the laceration,
but the parents took him at once to Den
ton where a mad stone was applied and
would not adhere, and it was said
that the virous had not entered the
system. Not satisfied, the father took
the boy to Mansfield, where a
second mad stone was applied. It also re

Springfield, 111., August 26.—The
democratic state convention was called to
order at noon by Hon. Alfred Orendorff,
chairman of the state central committee.
Hon. James W. Duncan was named as
temporary chairman. Duncan, in his
speech, gave unqualified praise to the ad
ministration of President Cleveland. The
convention hall was liberally supplied
with circulars signed by the executive
committee of the state labor association
asking for a resolution abolishing prison
contract labor.
A. J. F. Ricker, of Quincy, was nomi
nated for stato treasurer, and Professor
F. T. Oldt for superintendent of public in

Resolved, That the democracy of Illinois

Last evening the sufferer became quiet
for awhile and slept for a few moments.
He awoke with a tremor, barked like a

teeth. Blood and foam gushed from his
mouth and he was dead. Mrs. Gandy,
mother of the boy, is prostrated with
grief. It is feared she will die from the
shock.

That the democratic party by its history
and traditions is pledged to the protection
of all American citizens, both native born
and naturalized, while sojourning in for
eign lands, and we heartily commend the
prompt anil successful demand of Presi
dent Cleveland’s administration for the re
lease of an American citizen from unjust
confinement in a Mexican prison.
That the taxation of the people for other
purposes than raising revenue for the ex
penses of the government economically
administered is robbery under the form of
law.
That we are in favor of a reduction of
the present unjust tariff to a revenue basis
and heartily endorse the action of tlioso
democratic representatives in congress
who were faithful to the cause of tariff re
form.
That the action of the democratic house
of representatives of the forty-eighth and
forty-ninth congresses in declaring forfeit
ed and reclaiming from railroad corpora
tions about 100,600,000 acres of land un-
i earned by such corporations is hereby
i heartilv endorsed and approved.
That tiie ownership of real estate in this
country by persons not citizens of the
United States, or who have not declared
their intention of such, is injurious to
American interests and may be attended
with evil consequence. We, therefore,
heartily approve of such legislation by
congress as will effectually protect the
public lands from such aliens’ entries and
ownership, so that the same, as far as pos
sible, may be reserved for our own citizens.
That we favor a financial policy in which
gold and silver coin and paper currency
convertible into coin on demand, shaft
constitute the circulating medium.
That the surplus in the national treasury,
should be applied to the payment of tiie
national public debt, to the end that large
accumulations in the treasury, beyond the
proper necessity of the public service,
shall not occur, thus assuring an honest
mid economical government, and relieving
the people from unnecessary and oppres
sive taxation.
That we are opposed to the importation
id aliens under contract to
lots without result. All efforts to effect a
compromise failed, as did also an attempt
to make Hon. J. 8. Barbour a candidate.
The candidates held conferences, but
could come to no agreement, and in de
spair an adjournment sine die was carried
by « close" vote, after the adoption of a
resolution endorsing the administration.

Special to Enquirer-Sun.
Atlanta, Ua., August26.—The coroner’s
inquest over the body of Bart Wall con
sumed all the morningj and after 2 o’clock
the jury rendered the following verdict;
We, the jury of Inquest, Impaneled and
sworn to inquire into the death of Bart
Wall, a Central railroad conductor, who
died on August 25, 1886, by knife
wounds inflicted about midnight, the
21th of August, 1886, And from the evidence
adduced and the statements of Dr.
Nicolson and Dr. Boring that a stub in
the breast caused the said Wall’s death,
and that the wounds wore inflicted by
Luther Ellison, and without provocation,
and we, the jury,recommend his detention.
[Signed.] E. U. Bruffey,
Foreman.
A number of witnesses were introduced,
and all of the testimony pointed to Elli
son ns the man who did the stabbing, but
the statement in the verdict that it was
without provocation was unwarranted by
the evidence before the jury. Indeed,
there was no testimony before them us to
tiie cause of the difficulty. 'Flic only evi
dence on that point at all was that Wall
called Ellison “a d—d lie” and that Elli
son struck him.

26. — Unexpected
hanges are about to take place with all
manufacturers and nailers. The lockout

| has ended in a compromise of 18 cents on
the £2.25 card. During the strike the man*
1 ufactnrers’ 17-cent card, which they made
I at Cincinnati, was accepted by some ofthe
men in the Wheeling district and the fac
tories were started. The Pittsburg nailers
refused to work the 17-cent card and did
, not start till a compromise was reached,
; which was for 18cents. The c "Hilaeturers
j started up,hut when they found the market
could be supplied with nails made for less
i than they were paying, and having to con
tend with the cutting of prices, they re-
i 1’used orders, and one by one shut down

laws, were debarred from participation in
the rights of citizenship, and could not
make entry of public lands. The half-
breeds, disappointed In their in
tentions in Dakota, and losing
their fear of the dominion gov
ernment, have been drifting back over the
border and are preparing to take upland
again in Manitoba and tiie north west ter
ritory. The dominion government, it ap
pears, does not desire the return of these
.urbulent spirits, and on June 29 last Min
ister West addressed Mr. B ayard a note
desiring, for the dominion government, in
formation as to whether these half
breeds were really taking up land
here, and whether they de
clared, as was a necessary preliminary
to entry, their intention of actually be
coming citizens ofthe United States. The
Canadian government desired this infor
mation to use it in opposition to the at
tempts of these half-breeds to settle on
Canadian lands. Secretary Bayard turned
Minister West’s letter over to the secretar
it of the Interior for reply, and, through
the Indian bureau, the information has
been obtained, and was sent to the English
minis'or to-day. It is substantially

A PROPOSED ALLIANCE WITH FRANCE

St. Petersburg, August 26.—Paul
Deronlede, the French advocate whose
presence here agitating a union of Russia
and Franqp in a war against their common
enemy, Germany, has created such a sen
sation, has given another banquet, this
time by the Russian authors, artists and
journalists. The banquet was private. It
is learned, however, that the tendency ot
all the toasts and speeches was to empha
size what a French lawyer described as the
inborn sympathy between France and
Russia and the beneficent influence which
French and Russian literature and art ex
ercise upon each other.
