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.

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, under foreign secretary, stated in the house of commons this afternoon that loyal troops had entered Sofia on Tuesday with the consent of the powers, The ex act whereabouts of Prince Alexander, the secretary said, was unknown to the British government, but telegrams had been for warded to him inviting him to return and resume his rule in Bulgaria. * HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

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 “Your brother will wait on you.” THE PRINCE AT DARMSTADT.

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. Two of T liem Fall to Save a l.lttle Boy From a Horrible Death. 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 fused to adhere. Saturday the little fellow said his throat was sore, and refused to eat.

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 struction. Following is the platform: Resolved, That the democracy of Illinois in convention assembled reaffirm the plat form of principles adopted by the national democratic party at the Chicago conven tion which nominated Grover Cleveland for president and Thomas A. Hendricks for vice-president, and congratulate the country upon their election and the restor ation of our party to power in the admin istration of the national government. yesterday snapped at him. biting him slightly in the face. Physicians fear this boy lias also been inoculated with the poison. Last evening the sufferer became quiet for awhile and slept for a few moments. He awoke with a tremor, barked like a dog, bent himself double, gnashed his 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. ON THE TRACK. rill- Ill-Mill III' YlSll'I'lllIV ({Hi ll 1 Siiriifmta. Saratoga, N.

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.

Parker, lieutenant governor; Charles L. Hawley, auditor general; John N. Em ery, secretary of internal affairs and Rev. J. M. Palmer, (colored), congressman at large. Palmer is an eloquent speaker and divided with Wolfe the honors of the con vention. At the conclusion of one of his speeches the convention joined in chanting the negro hymn, “Keep In do Middle of do Road,” while Palmer walked lip the aisle and shook the outstretched hands of scores of delegates. The platform is composed of fourteen resolutions, nearly every one of them long. Hulun Into Polltlrs. Chicago, August 28.—The Knights of Labor of assembly 1307 assembled in mass meeting at their ball last night. The meet ing was called for the purpose of taking steps towards organizing the working man’s party to take an active part In the approaching elections. About 200 men were in attendance, the little hull being crowded to the doors. Those who lind come expecting to hear speeches express ing sympathy for the condemned anar chists', because Parsons is a member of this l.*xlge were disappointed.

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.

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 their nail factories.

He (was informed that the half-breeds, being Indians within the meaning of our 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 i .... given above -that these half-breeds, oe...a -liilians, could acquire no rights on this side of the line.

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.
