Hw e in the Cortege Objected to Its / resence, But the Crowd on the Curbs 'Prevented Its Removal Tho Work of Fielden and Schwab at Joliet, t ‘fiii ago, Nov. 14. —The News says edito rftll v; “No true hearted American citizen > f.uld view the Anarchist procession which marched through the streets of Chicago ■yesterday w ithout emotions of a conflicting nature, it was a display at once pitiful and reassuring. That some ihing mere than 5,000 persons, men, si omen and children,should avail themselves < ! tihe funeral of five murderers to advertise l/:eir sympathy with lawlessness must be regretted. At the head of the procession marched a Grand Army veteran hearing a cl ean Fourth of July copy of the stars i. 1 stripes emblazoned with tho battles in wan h he bad fought. This was tho only flag displayed along the march. Its presence cv,w resented by the Anarchists and they appealed to the police to prevent the veteran from flaunting the stars and stripes before ihp corpses of their brethren. For once the pnli -e would fain have obliged the Anarch ic-. but they dared not. The old man -hook his Hug in the face of anarchy, and s3id he had braved death under its folds upon the field of battle, and he was prepared to die under it thore. The SioU'.e started to prevent the affront [m anarchy hi the presence of the dead, but tiro crowd upon the sidewalk surged forward s id. cheering for the old veteran and the rational emblem, forced the police back. Trout the Lake street viaduct to the depot Pie stare and stripes held its place at the 1. -ad of the procession and was cheered all along the route. This was significant of the lenip°r of the citizens of Chicago. In alt tiie procession, as far as tho eye of the spec tator could determine, there was not an American face. Thin was significant of the composition of the procession.' 1 l.inog rofri) A BOMB. It has been settled that Louis Lings killed himself with a dynamite bomb and not a l utminating cap as was at first supposed. IHiring the overhauling of his cell to-dav shattered pieces of gas pipe were found, Miowing conclusively that Liugg had ex ploded a dynamite bomb in his mouth. One piece is over an inch long. The condition Ini the wall of Lingg’s cell also bears out the ■tneory that a bomb was used by him. Large ■ leces of solid masonry are broken off by ■he force of the mi Miles of which the bomb lias made. How Ute bomb got into his pos- K'si-ion seems ns mtdh a mystery as ever. ■he suspicion that was at first directed to ■ae of the deputies on guard is now no longer entertained. It is generally Relieved that Lingg had it iii Ri- possession at the time the other four R'nv found, and had it secreted in his hair, 1 thing he could vefv easily do, as his hair Rus over six inches long and very thick. It R the opinion of the jail officials that all the lombs were pa.-seci.tto him by outside friends. 1 WORK OF FIF.J.DEN’ AND SCHWAB.

CARLISLE'S RETURN. He Expects to Be Re-Elected Speaker Without Democratic Opposition. Washington, Nov. 14. —Speaker Carlisle arrived this afternoon to remain through the winter. He expects to be re-elected Speaker without opposition from his own side of the House. He attaches very little importance to the contest of his seat, based as it, is on such scant and flimsy testimony. He has no doubt that it will be dismissed by the House on the recommendation of the Committee on Elections, whether the latter is appointed by Representative William D. Kelley os the oldest member on the Re publican side, oi' elected by a vote of the House. Mr. Carlisle will therefore pre pare his list of committees between now mid the time that Congress meets, in order that there may Lie no delay in getting to work. He will, of course, bestow most care on the Committee on Ways and Means, which will have the most important w ork to do this winter. He has not yet Anally determined who shall be chairman of this committee. Mr. Carlisle will talk with the President and Secretary Fairchild about their recommendations respecting the tariff and internal revenue. He is very hopeful of some satisfactory revenue legis lation this winter. He thinks the revenue reform movement greatly strengthened by the elections of last Tuesday. DISCRIMINATING RATES. Danville Business Men Complain Against a Railroad. Washington - , Nov. 14. —The Inter state Commerce Commission to-day gave a hearing upon complaint of B. K. Cows and other business men of Danville, Va., against the Richmond and Danville Railroad Company. Col. George C. Cabell appeared for the complain ants, and James T. Worthington for the railroad. The essence of the complaint is that the rates to Danville from various points are proportionately much greater than to towns with which it competes for trade, and that they are exorbitant and un reasonable. Tiie railroad, in its rejoinder, denies any violation of the interstate commerce law, and denies that it lias established rates purposely dis criminating against Danville. It an mils certain specific allegations, some of which it justifies, while in respect to o#i: rs it pleads that the overcharges were made by mistake, and that the amounts ovreharged have been refunded. The com plainants submitted a member of deposi tions in support of their complaint, and the respondents called general freight agent Drake to the witness stand in rebuttal. The hearing will be continued to-morrow. DRIVEN WELL PATENTS. The Supreme Court Decides in Favor of the Infringer. Washington, Nov. 1 4..—What Is known as the “Driven Well Patent,” which has been several times before the United States Supreme Court, aud which has alway s here tofore been sustained, was to-d v declared invalid in an opinion by Justice Blatehford, bused upon the record iu Case No. 10, An drews, Green and others against George Hovey, brought here by appeal from the United States Circuit Court for the Southern District of lowa. This Court holds that the fact now made to appear for the first, time in the driven well litigation that the invention was used in public at Cortlaudt, N. Y., by others than Green more than two years before the application for a patent was made is a fact which is fatal to the patent’s validity. The decree of the Circuit Court iu favor of the alleged infringer, Hovey, is affirmed. A BLAZE AT BROOKLYN. Coney Island Roads and a Street Car Line the Losers. New York, Nov. 14.—Fire in Brooklyn to-night destroyed a station of the Culver Prospect Park and Coney' Island railroad, the stables of the Vanderbilt avenue horse car line, a large quantity of feed and rolling stock, and 157 horses.

A Passenger Train t witched Into a Freig.it—Tho Freedman's Bank. Macon, Oa., Nov 14.—A special passen ger train on the East Tennessee road run ning from Hawkinsville to Atlanta, and due at Macon at 7 :'£> o’clock this morning, met with an accident this morning, owing to a, misplaced switch. The scene of the accident was near Stratton’s brick yard, a short distance from this city. The mishap was due to the neglect of the section boss who, it is understood, has since resigned his position. A train of flat cars loading with wood was ou the main track. The polo car of the section boss was also on the track. As the hour for the arrival of the special passenger train was near at hand, the wood train and pole car were switched from the main track to a siding, and the switchman forgot or failed to turn the switch hack to the main line, so when the special passenger train came thundering along it ran on to the siding and into the wood train. Fortunately no one was hurt, hut the engine was badly broken, a wood car smashed, and the pole car of the section boss was scattered in many directions. THE FKEKDMKX’S BANK.

Cone, the man arrested yesterday for incest, hail a hearing this afternoon, and was com mitted for trial. Public indignation ran high against him, and it is best that he is surrounded with good brick walls. Dr. Lorenzo D. Hustou, a native of Cin cinnati, died at Daytona, Friday, aged (37. Dr. Huston was educated at Woodward College, 0., and was a classmate of George 11. Pendleton. He was in the ministry sev eral years, and at one time edited the Chris tian Advocate at Nashville He has held a number of public offices, and was highly es teemed. It is asserted that R. C. Bisbee will suc ceed the late Gen. Hopkins as Collector of Customs of this port, and that his name has already been sent to the President, indorsed by Congressman Dougherty and other mem bers of the Florida delegation. ID - .

The grand jury has brought in three indictments, but there seems no way to transfer the cases from the Circuit Court to the C ourt of Criminal Record. This was discussed at length by State’s Attorney McDonel and ex-Chief Justice Randall lief ore Judge Baker. The act of the Legislature, Judge Randall thought, was in conflict with the constitu tion. No decision was reached. It seems that tho Legislature that established the Court of Record neglected this important part of the necessary law. What conclu sion w'ill be finally reached by the court is unknown, but it would seem a hardship upon those charged with crime to have to stand so charged or remain in prison for nearly two years, to await the convening of the next Legislature to enact a law to transfer then-cases front the Cir cuit court, which nowr has no jurisdiction over them iu this county, to tho Criminal court, which is alone authorized to give them trial. Iko drainer, an escaped Putnam county prisoner, was recaptured to-night by Sheriff Holland. Grainer was sentenced for as saulting a white woman D. F. McGuire. Oscar Higgins, Shaw Thompson, John Sharp and William Bled soe have been held lor indictment at Brook villa, charged with the murder and robbery of John Hollifleld in November, IBS4. The parties are said to have been illicit distillers at the time of the alleged murder. FLORIDA’S RAILROADS. The Commission Announces the Legal Passenger Rates.

FREE SPEECH IN LONDON THE TRAFALGAR SQUARE ISSUE TO BE TESTED. Home Secretary Mathews Holds that Public Acts In the Square are Only Allowed ou Sufferance of the Queen —Gladstone Urges the People to Wait Quietly. London, Nov. 14. —Seventy-five men,who wore arrested for taking part in the dis turbance here yesterday, Avere arraigned in the Bow Street Police Court this morning, charged with rioting. Many wero fined, w'hile ot hers were sentenced to from four to six months’ imprisonment at hard labor. In an iiftcrvieAv Saturday evening Mr. Mathews,Home Secretary, told Mr. Graham that the government would uot permit the prqixwed meeting in Trafalgar square. He said he believed the executive was acting within its strict legal rights, and that public acts were only alloAved in the square on suf ferance by the Queen. He further stated that lie AA-ished the question to be tried legally by the courts. Mr. Graham replied that he regretted the government’s decision, because the meeting would certainly be held, aud graA r e responsibility would rest with, the government. It is stated that Sirs. Annie Besant, AA’ho was Avith one of the sections desiring to enter Trafalgar square yestordav, made an earnest request to be arrested with Messrs. Burns and Graham. The Times this morning ex pressed a hope that the rioters in custody, especially the ringleaders, would receive exemplary punishment. “Kchhid these.” it continues, “stand the greater criminals Avho in the press and otherwise labor to convert the English Sunday into a carnival of blood for which the despicable brood ought to be shot.” GLADSTONE ON THE TROUBLE. Mr. Gladstone, replying to the Secretary of the London Radical Club, Avrote as fol loavs, to-day: “I think you will expect me to meet your request by an explicit answer expressing the best judgment, which, while absent from the spot, lain able to form on the deplorable disturbances of yesterday, A I understand the matter the Home Secretary statod on Saturday, for the information of the public that he intended to prevent yes terday’s meeting in Trafalgar square and believed that its prevention was within his legal poAver. The question is ono of groat moment to the inhabitantsof London, particularly to those who are at present unemployed aud in circumstances of distress. It will be generally felt that the state of the law in regard to it ought to be promptly tested and ascertained. Until a decision can be had it is the duty of every citizen to refrain from all resistance to the decision of the executive government, tvhich is dearly entitled to administer the laws according to what it mav be advised is their true con- ’ struotion. Such abstinence is, I think, due alike to the high character of Ixmdon for the maintenance of public order and to the respect we owe the lasv and mode in which it is usually applied thorough the medium of the admirable jxilice of the metropolis. But I must add that the appeal to Parliament and the nation on the grave aud solemn issue iioav raiser! by the proceed ings of the government in Ireland, would suffer disastrous prejudice were it to lie associated in any manner by those who make the appeal with metropolitan disturb ances.” There is little doubt that Mr. Glad stone’s advice will be followed. In a letter A\-ritten before yesterday’s dis turbance Mr. Gladstone said: “I am un able to pronounce upon the law of the ques tion. If it is on Sir Charles Warren's side (aud I am bound to assume that he has ex amined ii) I should be slow to question the exercise of his discretion.” CONDITION OF THE CROWN PRINCE Larvnxotomy the Only Hope to Save His Life. Berlin, Nov. 14. —Drs. Bergmann, Ger hardt and Tobold have adopted the report of Dr. Schmidt, in which extirpation of the Crown Prince’s larynx is urged. The Crown Prince has not. yet consented to accept the plan of treatment. Klein'n Journal says Drs. Schroter and Schmidt hold that larvnxotomy is inevita ble in the case of the Crown Prince. They maintain the opinion that it would have been better to perform the operation months ago and assert that the delay has lessened the chance of success, although they do not regard the Prince's recovery as impossible. After the Emperor reci\ed Dr. .Schmidt yesterday a medical conference was ordered at the Palace. There were present the phy sicians of the household with Drs. Wegener, Bergmann, Uerhardf. TolioM and Schmidt. Count Von Holherg, Min ister of the household, presided. A paper was unanimously signed declaring that the throat affection of the Crown Prince was cancerous, and that partial removal of the larynx is no longer advisable. Complete excision of the larynx is referred to as rec ommended by the physicians at .San I ten in, but in the meantime objected to by the Crown Prince. LOVE FOR IIIH FATHER. London, Nov. 14. — It. is reported that the Crown Prince speaking of l lie proposed operation on his throat said: “As long as the kasier lives, I shall not submit to the o|ieration. 1 prefer to let my old father have some hopes, and I will not risk the hastening catastrophe by undergoing dangerous operation.” HF.

Wilson. PARIS, Nov. 14. —The Primps.the Saliannl and Tm Lihrrtr announce that the prelimi nary examination in tho case of M. Wilson has resulted iu a demand for his prosecu tion. The statement has created a sensa tion, as it is considered to involve the resig oation of President Gravy. Three of the persons charged with connection with the Legion of Honor decoration scandals have been convicted. Gen. d’Andlnu was sen tenced to prison for fivn years, to pay a tine of 8,000f., and to bo deprived of all civil and political rights. He has never appeared for trial. Mute.

Rochefort testified that Mine. Sellierie complained to him that M. Wilson got. 3(lO,OOOC. from her husband for insuring him military contracts, and that 700,000f. was paid for a contract for Rugs, and also that Viscountess Feredine bribed M. Wil son with 600,000f. to obtain a judgment against her husband. M. Portal is testified t hat lie had the Kellie rie check for the Rugs’ contract, and that it ivas indorsed by M. Wilson, who had not questioned its authenticity. GKEA'Y WONT RESIGN. The .Journal des Dehats says: President Gravy declares that he will not resign, even if the Chamber of Deputies votes that M. Wilson must submit to trial. M. Rochefort avos before the commission appointed to in quire into M. Wilson’s action to-day, and produced evidence showing that M. Wilson had received large bribes from tho family of Baron de SeilTiero, whose committal to an insane asylum some time ago caused a sensation. It is reported that in the Chamber of Deputies to morrow leave will lie asked to prosecute M. Wilson. Im Seic'e publishes documents showing that 1 .eon Grcvy, nephew of the President, offered to procure a position on the credit foneicr for a retired notary, M. Grougeon, for 15,000f. The notary paid the money, but failed to obtain the position. He brought action against Leon Grevy to recover the money, but the matter was settled before it came into court. WIND-UP OF THE WILD WEST. A Talk With Col. Cody About His Wonderful Success. London, Nov. 2. —I had a talk with Col. Cody yesterday about his London season. He left London to-day for Birmingham, where he will be a short time, and then ho will go to Manchester for the winter. Man chester Is the centre of a vast poprrtntton. Within a radius of thirty-one miles from the centre of Manchester there are in tho neighborhood of 7,Ot)U,CKK) of people, as many ns are within a similar radius from the centre of London itself. There is much more money among the work ing people of Manchester than among those of London. Codv and Sals bury have a much more profitable arrange ment for tho winter season than they had with the American exhibition in London. Tho projectors of the Manchester building put it up at their own expense, and only ask 25 pel' cent, of the proceeds for their work. Col Cody leaves iu a day or two for Italy for a three weeks’ rest, as he does not intend to play himself until his people reach Man chester. He is to-day the most successful and widely advertised showman in the world. He lias surpassed Biu'uum so far as notoriety and success are concerned. He told me yester day that, just before 1 eaving New York for England Bornum came to him and offered him $250,000 for a quarter interest in the Europeau venture. Cody accepted this offer, until tie learned of the condition that was attached to it. That " as that Barnum’s name should go ahead of Cody’s iu the an nouncement of tbe combi nation. This Cody refused. He says that the name that ho has made as a successful showman is as much to him as the money. Cody says that several days ago lie received the largest offer known in tiie history of the show busi ness. He was offered #1.000,000 in cash for a contract for two years to play in different parte of Europe. This offer he refused for the reason that he is not certain that he wants to remain in Europe for two years, ami if he did lie would be able to make more money than that under his ow n man agement ami not lie t ied up with anyone. Both Cody and Salsbury were very much dissatisfied with their connection with the American Exhibition. Cody said yesterday that he had not spoken to Whitley, the Di rector General or the American Exhibition, since enrlv lust summer. Tho managers of i lie Wild ’West Hhow. he say a, were deceived bv Whitley, in bung given to understand that a number of prominenf and official representatives of the United (States were to be interested in the concern. Cody says that he found that every name that, had been given to him as interested in the enterprise when he first made the contract was used without any au thority. Instead of there living plenty of money back of tile concern the money nre.s sary waa only obtained after the Wild West (’ornpany had started from New York. To use Cody’s own language, “the last £25,000 necessary for the completion of the build ings (n London were obtained after a dis patch was received from New York an nouncing the embarkation and departure of my company. When the Wild West jxiople arrived they found tier they wore the prin cipal attraction and that they could have done much belter if (hey had started alone than by dividing profits with an enterprise which could never have opened without their assistance, and which, if it had been opened without them, could not havedrawn a crowd for over a fortnight. I asked Col, Cody something about their financial success. He said that they hud made a good deal of money in I/jnilon, but not as mu hns they should have mnde. He considered that lie was worth to-day t<*oo. 000, and that the Imlk of this is invested in good Western real ( State. Salsbury, he said, was worth about $500,000 that lie had put away since he bud gone in with the Wild West. Cody says that he is not certain afsait, (heir future. He has made money enough to retire. They will pluv the winter through, and then go to Belgium for three or four weeks for tho spring exhibition there. Then tliev will go to Paris for n few wks awl to Homo later. The manager of tho Paris Hippodrome has advised Col. Cody to go to Russia. Ho says that ho would make a greater auoree* In Russia than in any country of Europe. hut all this means hard work and the taking of risks which Cody and Saisbury are not at present cer tnin about running. They know that they can now go back to the Unif/xl States and play to a better business than before they came away, nod as the prices obtwined in the ITijltod States are higher than they get get, hero they may come home next year. Their original plan was to remain in Eu rope two yeans. THE DESPERATE BOY FIEND. Another Attempt by Jesse Pomeroy to Escape trom Prison. Boston, Nov. 13.—Jesse Pomeroy, the “boy fiend,” who is serving a life sentence in the .Stale prison in Charlestown, made a desperate attempt to escape or kill himself yesterday by blowing up the prison. He succeeded in causing an explosion that shat tered the plastering ami windows in the wing of the prison that coutaiued his cel!, and he was himself severely burned about the head and hands. His injuries are not dangerous. This lust is the most startling of his many attempts to gain freedom. He lias given the prison officials more trouble than all tho other prisoners combined, and iu his attempts to escape he lias shown ail inventive genius that would lie a credit to him if rightly used. He Ims many friends arming the prisoners, and they have materially aided bun in his work. In some way unknown to the olllcein he obtained |xie session of a cold steel chisel about eight inches long and a long-bladed knife. The knife blade was transformed into a saw, and with these tools he found no difficulty in cutting through brick and iron. In all his other operations he has given his atten tion to the bars of his cell door or window, but this time lie tried another method that was as ingenious as it, was desperate. It involved Die iHissilile destruction of one wing of the prison and its inmates, includ ing himself, or the making of a broach in the walls large enough to liberate many of the prisoners. After providing himself with the tools he severed the gas mpe that ran between the walls, aud allowed the gas to escape in the space that was left by the builders. Then he lighted the gas. and a tremendous ex plosion followra, shaking the building from top to bottom. The explosion occurred while the prisoners were in their ceils eat ing dinner, ami u terrible outcry was made by the men. The prison officials hastened to the wing with revolvers in hand, fearing that the prisoners had started a revolt. The odor of gas attracted them to Pome roy's cell, and the officials found him lying on the floor unconscious, mid with his hair and eyebrows burned off. Dr. Sawyer, the prison physician, dressed his wounds, and in a short time he was restored to conscious ness. He was locked up in a strong ceil, and the Warden made an examination of his quarters to see what damage had been done by the explosion. Then the ingenious work of the prisoner was revealed. By means of nu awl he had loosened two bricks in the wall of his cell at the place opposite tho ellxiw of gas pi|>e. Tho right sjiot could only have been located liy care ful mathematical calculation. Then with his saw, which was ingeniously set In a long wooden handle, he had severed the gas pipe diagonally on both sides of the elbow. The work must have taken several weeks to ac complish. But the prisoner's ingenuity was best shown by the instruments he had made to conceal his work until the time for action came. With patter and cotton cloth tie had reproduced the elliow of the gas pipe so that it fitted snugly over the iron ends and pre vented the escape of gas The iron that was out off he allowed to fall between the walls. The (taper pine was strongly rolled, ami was a wonderful piece of workman ship. When he was ready he removed the paper tube, and filled the s|ice between the walls with gas, aud then threw a lighted match through tiie hole. There was enough of an explosion to shatter the plastering of the cells in that wing aud to break some of the windows, hut the granite walls were un injured. A large sheet of (lame filled his cell and hurled him so violently against the bars as to render him unconscious. His in juries will confine him to bed for some days. The officers Imvo searched his cell every few days, but, lie hod effectually concealed every trace of his w ork, the place of the mortar around the bricks living supplied by soap. Warden Russell said to a reporter this afternoon: “Jesse Pomeroy’s study of chem istry and civil enginen mg for the past ten years has only served to keep his name lierore the public, aiul even such simple t hings as tin plates, cups, aud htioodn in his hands are a source of danger both to himself and to every one in the prison.” The Warden showed the instruments which lie had obtained or constructed to break through the wall and cut the gas pi Ik* The implement which he doubtless found most, useful in cutting (he stone and brick work was a cold chisl about 4x inches long. How lie gyt this and other things is u mystery. Another curious little instrument, which was doubtless of his own make, was of the size and shape of a shoemaker's awl handle, with a steel blade running through it and projecting at, inch end. This was used by him m scraping out the mortar. A little saw, made of a pocket-knife blade, on a rough wooden handle about a foot long, wan used to saw the gas pipe joint But the oddest thingof all was the subati tute for the gas pi|>e, which he made hv coiling and pasting linen endpaper. One was a pine about an inch in diameter arid a foot and a half long. The other corre sponded to the metal cap at the Joint of the gas pipe. The latter was used to cover up the hole which he had cut and permit th" gas to flow through until such time as it suited his purpose to let it escape. By placing this capon he was able to let the ga pass through without causing any odor in his cell. “It is odd,” said Warden Russell, “that lie should have risked hisown life by having the explosion occur while he was in his own c"II. He might possibly have made some slow match arrangement and then waited until some limo when he would betaken out for a bath.” Forced to Issue Certificates. Nkw Orleans, Nov. 14.
