cut a wide swath in the population of Chi
cago last week, and yesterday it had its
victims in every grade of society and left
them in every part of the city. The wel

COOLED BY A STORM.
Baltimore, July IS.—A severe thunder
storm, accompanied by rain and nai 1 ., visited
this city and vicinity late this at, rnoon.
Within a few minutes the streets were
flooded in every direction, and the hail was
so severe that pedestrians sought the nearest
shelter. The day had been oppressively
warm and tho hail had the effect to cool the
temperature. During the storm signs and
awnings were blown away, but no personal
damage was done.
At the Emory Grove camp meeting
ground, about twenty miles west of the
city, where about fifty families spend the
summer in tents, Miss Ida Andrews, of Bai
imore, was killed instantly by the falling
of a large tree, which struck her square in

There has been quite a number
of prostrations from heat in the past two
days, six resulting fatally. Several indus

TANNER TAKEN TO TASK.
LONG OBJECTS TO BEING CALLED
A SNOB.
Government Leader Smith Moves the
Suspension of tho Fiery-Tong-ued
Celt—Mr. Sexton Obtains a Postpone
ment of the Debate Until the Doctor
is Present—A Verbatim Report of the
Objectionable Outburst.
London, July 18. —Walter Hume Long,
Conservative member of Parliament for
the Devizes division of Wiltshire, called the
attention of the House of Commons this
afternoon to a breach of privilege committed
on Friday last in the lobby by Dr. Tanner,
Parnellite member for Middle Cork,in calling
him (Mr. Long) a “<J— snob.” Continuing,
Mr. Long said he had by letter warned Dr.
Tanner of his determination to bring the
matter before tho House. Notwithstanding
this Dr. Tanner was now absent, although
he had full knowledge that his presence was
required to defend himself. Tho facts of
the case were that Mr. Long having heard
that Dr. Tanner had complained that his
vote had not been recorded in several divis
ions, and meeting him in the lobby asked
him what was the matter and if anything
was going wrong in the record of the divis
ion.
tanner’s outbreak.
Dr. Tanner replied: “You’re a Tory,
aren’t you? I wish to God that you
wouldn’t speak to me. I have told you
and Tories never to speak to me. [lrish
cheers.] Talk to your own and lot.”
Mr. Long answered: “I wasn’t aware you
didn’t wish to be spoken to.”
Dr. Tanner then went on: “Keep your
and tongue in your mouth. Don’t make
a blasted fool of yourself.” [Laughter by
the Parnellites.] As Mr. Long was hurry
ing away Dr. Tanner called out: “There
goes ad snob.” Mr. Long, after giv
ing the history of the incident, said he
would rather have passed over the affair
with contempt, but as it occurred within tho
precincts of the House, and in the presence
of several members, he felt it to be his duty
to bring the whole matter before the House.
suspension moved.
W. H. Smith, the government leader, said
that in view of the necessity to maintain
decorum, he would move that in conse
quence of his disorderly words Dr. Tanner
be suspended for one mouth.
Mr. Sexton said he considered such pro
ceedings scarcely less disgraceful than tho
language complained of. Dr. Tanner had
frequently requested Conservative members
not to address him. Mr. Ixing would have
acted wisely if he had not spoken to Dr.
Tanner. At the time the doctor was excited
over his exclusion from the division. The
incident did not deserve the treatment it was
accorded, and Dr. Tanner did not deserve
the severe penalty proposed. As to his ab
sence be was in Ireland keeping a public en
gagement.
POSTPONEMENT ASKED.
He would meet the accusation any day
appointed for him to do so. Mr. Sexton
moved to adjourn the debate until Dr. Tan
ner should lie present.
Mr. Smith reminded the House that no
request for delay, nor any apology had been
offered by Dr. Tanner. He had had ample
notice that his conduct was to be brought
before the House.
Mr. Parnell submitted that there was no
precedent for suspending a member for a
month without giving him a chance to be
heard to repel charges against him.
Mr. Gladstone said he thought that the
proposed punishment for the offense, sup
ported by ex parte evidence only, was dis
proportioned to what was usually adminis
tered.
Mr. Smith after hearing Mr. Gladstone
said he would not press his motion, and in
stead would propose that Dr. Tanner should
attend on Thursday next. This was agreed
to.
FERDINAND PERPLEXED.
The Replies of the Powers to Bulga
ria’s Note Evasive.
London, July 18.—Replies of the powers
to Bulgaria’s note asking their approval of
the election of Prince Ferdinand, of Saxe-
Coburg-Gotlia as Prince of Bulgaria, are
evasive.
A correspondent at Vienna has had an In
terview with Prince Ferdinand, of Saxe-Co
burg-Gotha. The Prince said he had not
decided whether he would go to St. Peters
burg to personally request Russian recogni
tion of his election to the Bulgarian throne.
He would not allow himself to be enticed
into taking any course that would
be likely to further estrange Russia and Bul
faria. He said he was disappointed that
rince Alexander had omitted to congratu
late him, on his election to the vacant
throne.
King Milan of Bervia, in an interview
with the same correspondent, expressed the
belief tliat Russia would never sanction oc
cupancy of the Bulgarian throne by Prince
Ferdinand. Alluding to the idea of a feder
ation of Bervia and Bulgaria under himself,
King Milan said he was willing to enter into
such a project, but only under Turkey’s pro
tection.

ENGLAND AND EGYPT.
A Blue Book Issued Detailing the Ne
gotiations.
London, July 18.—Kiamil Pasha, the
Grand Vizier, lias resigned. His resig
nation was in consequence of a violent
article published in the Mizam attacking tho
Grand Vizier, Cabinet and the whole ad
ministration, which was inspired by the Sul
tan in order to excite public indignation
against them, and thus cover his own re
sponsibility hi connection with the Egyptian
convention.

the German Ambassador, and by direct
messenger, tried to persuade Sir 11. D.
Wolff, tho British Commissioner, to post
pone his departure from Constantinople.
In his latest dispatch. Lord Salisbury re
fused to modify the Egyptian convention.
There are rumors of coming change® in tho
Ministry.
A Bluebook has just been published giving
the particulars of the Egyptian mission or
Sir H. D. Wolffs and the tenet of the
Egyptian convention. Dispatches show
that the Italian ami Austrian representa
tives at Constantinople cordially assisted
the British Commissioner ibroughout,
and that Lord Salisbury thanked both
governments for their friendly
services. The Freuoh Ambassador, it ap
pears, protested that France could in no
way take part, in the negotiations. M. Neli
doff, the Russian Ambassador, informed the
representative of Great Britain at an early
stage of the negotiations that Russia’s policy
as regarded Egypt was to maintain the
Sultan’s sovereign rights and prevent their
being infringed. He further said that Rus
sia regarded status quo with less disfavor
than the convention scheme. Lord Salis
bury, in his dispatches to tho Sultan, effu
sively thanked nim for approving tho con
vention, which he said would powerfully
uphold the integrity of tho Turkish
Empire. The text of the convention agrees
with the forecasts that havo been made.
Lord Rosebery, speaking at a Liberal
banquet to-night, declared that Sir H.
D. Wolff had made England's name and
honor a laughing stock in the back quarters
of Constantinople.

the sjxH-ial train was run at n moderate rate
of speed. Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland looked
quite well. The night and morning were

rather than comfort.

child sat on the left side >f the car, near the
I>aok window, and looked considerably worn

the train passed out of sight, bearing its
illustrious passengers on their westward
journey to the home of the President’s
youth.
CHEERED AT ONEIDA.

make the affair one of great prominence.
Nearly every newspaper office in the city
and throughout the country will send

column rules to-day and published long ar
ticle* eulogistic of the dead patriot. The

mies of President Juarez, protesting ener
getically against the assertion of the Clerical
press that to-morrow's manifestation is an
anti-Catholic demonstration. It says that

liberty of the press. It is intimatotl that
the action of the Judge was taken to pre
vent n popular outburst against El 1 tempo.

the United States, stating that its mission
in this country is one of pacific conquest.
These attacks on the American people liavc
given much nnnoyanco to the adininistra
turn, ns they were reproduced promptly in
American papers.
SUING A UNION.
The Right to Prevent a Man Getting
Work to be Tested.
CIIICAOO, July 18.—Michael Reirko, a
practical maltster, has brought suit in the
Circuit Court against the International Beer
Brewers’ and Maltster Union No. 1, of this
city, and Peter Jung, an official of tin; union,
chummy SIO,OOO. The allegation is that
through the agency of the union and the ef
forts of Jung, Maltster Reirke has suffered
deprivation of employment and been pre
vented from securing any work in this city
at his trade. It is represented that Reirke
is an expert in his business. He learned his
trade in Germany and is proficient in all the
processes of beer making. He came to this
country some years ago, and until J line 3 last
was a valued employe of the brewing com
pany. Prior to that time he was also a
member of the Browersand Matltaer* Union,
but fell behind in iiis dues a few payments.
He was notified of this and, it is alleged,
made a tender to the union of his dues, but
it is said the officials refused to accept the
money and dismissed him from the union.
Then Jung, it is alleged, in the cajmoity of
“walking delegate,” visited the brewery
where Reirke was employed and demanded
his discharge on |Miin of causing a general
strike. It Is alleged that Jung told the
foreman of the brewery that, unless Reirke
ivas discharged he would call off all mem
liers of the union employed at the brewery
and stop work. Roirke was given liis walk
ing pupers, and has been unable to obtain
employment since. He sues to recover the
full amount of wages he would have earned
during his period of enforced idleness.
COKE WORKERS TO CONVENE.
The Advisability of General Shut
Down to be Considered.

workers have called a convention at Ever
son to-morrow to consider the advisability
of causing a total susjiension of tho working
regions by calling upon those working at
the advance to come out uutil the strike is
settled. They think that a gen
eral shut down would soon compel
the operators, who want coke, to bring a
strong pressure to iiear on the others. An
attempt will probably also lie made to stop
the importation of new men by sending a
committee to New York to explain tho situa
tion to any whom tho agents may propose
to send. There is no change in the situation
to-dgy.

} 5 CENTS A COPY, f
LAM) BILL CONCESSIONS.
THE TORIES YIELD A POINT OR
TWO TO THE UNIONISTS.
Messrs. Redmond and Davitt Have a
Little Tilt Over the Recent Speech of
the Latter-The Crimes Bill Read the
Third Time in the House of Lords.
London, July 18.—In the House of Lords
to-day the crimes bill was read the third
time.
Mr. Gladstone on receiving a copy of the
Political Revie w writes that it, like all other
such reviews, shows that the Liberals have
carried nine-tenths of the lieneflcial laws oil
all great subjects. This, he contends, pow
erfully accredits tho Liberal claim to popu
lar support. The Liberals, he says, have
suffered mainly from their own successes.
Many electors are moved more by a sense of
grievance than by a cordial love of improve
ment. When this grievance is removed
they lapse anil again become Conservatives.
Hence the Liberals have recruited for the
Tories. If the Tories hail had their way",
there would have been revolution in Eng
land long ago. The Unionists are laboring,!
Mr. Gladstone says, in conclusion, however 1
honestly and unconsciously, to disunite th
English and Irish peoples.
CONCESSIONS TO THE UNIONISTS.
Lord Hartington had an interview to-day
with Mr. Smith on the amendments to the
land bill. The meeting resulted in Mr.,
Smith’s acceptance of the mum proposals ofi
the Liberal unionist*. Lord Salisbury, at al
reunion of the Conservatives
will announce the extent, of the concessions.
.Sir William Vernon Harcourt, speaking
at a meeting of the National Liberal Fedcra*
tion to-day, congratulated the party upon,
preserving admirable spirits, though in ai
minority, while the government was dis
mayed and discomfited. The recent elec
tions, he said, had shown that there were
only two parties in the State—Lilieral and
Tory. The Unionist masqueraders
either rejoin tho Liberals, as Mr. Trevelyan
ha<! done, or follow Mr. Goschen into the
Tory ranks.
TRYING TO STOP EVICTIONS.
Dum.iN, July 18.—Archbishop Walsh, of
Dublin, is endeavoring to induce the gov
ernment to susfiend further evictions in
Ireland until the land bill has been passed
by Parliament. He suggests that a con
ference on the subject behold by the leaders
of tho vurious parties.
REMONI) AND DAVITT HAVE A TILT.
Mr. Redmond, Nationalist member o|
Parliament, speaking at Coolgraney, saidi
he deeply respected Mr. Davitt* ser
vices, but regretted his latest speech
which amounted to a charge that wad
little short of folly against the advica
given by the Irish leaders and a charge of
cowardice against the people. The tenants*
Mr. Redmond said, ought not to engage ia
un unequal struggle against the bayonets of
t heir enemies. Mr. Davitt, replying to Mr.
Redmond, said ho would act in accordance
witli Mr. Parnell’s advice, but would not ba
dictated to by any sub-leader of the Irisbj
people.
Air. Dillon, speaking at Arklow, thanked
tho people of Coolgraney for their admira
ble adherence to the plan of canqiaign. Ha
was unable to refrain from expressing r©<
gret at Air. Davitt’s speech finding fault
with the advice of the Dublin executive,
He desired to defend Air. Harrington, whose
official position precluded him from replying
liersomilly. He hoped tliul, in future them
petty differences would be settled in council
chamber.

meeting was held, at which Mr. Dillon con*
gratulated the tenants upon the fact thn<
they liad tho backing of the whole na
tional organization and the support of al]
civilized people. Mr. Brennan urged unity
among Irishmen, and obedience to Mrj
Parnell and tho Irish Parliamentary party*
