After tlie.coniniittee 'vas organized Mr.

the action of the committee in changing
the time and manner of electing dele-*
gates to 'the senatorial convention. Mr.

jtltlugs he said here in his speech a few

He Whips a Recroant Bridegroom, and
the Latter Then Marries the Girl.
Montrkai., August 1.—“So that is
your game,” cried the Rev. Mr. Bart
ley, the athletic chaplain of one of Mon
treal’s crack military coips, and pastor
of a swell’West End congregation. As
Iu* spoke the parson dolled his black
coat and ministerial white tie anil the
next instant he was giving a scientific
threshing to . one of Montreal’s best
known and richest sports.
The story that led to this result is as
follows: “Some few weeks ago the
youth in question was engaged to wed
one of Montreal’s fairest daughters.
The lady in question hup|K*ucd to he
a luenda r of Parson liartly’s church,
and also a particular friend of the . min
ister. In consequence he was called
upon to perform the marriage c« re
ninny, and on the appointed day was at
the residence of the intended bride, a
was a large party of friends to assist a*
the wedding. To the consternation of
the fair lieauty and the surprise of her
friends the groom failed to put in > p
pea ranee. 'Die wedding was declared
off, but the clergyman, it is understood
expressed himself in no indistinct war
about what he called the rascally con
duct of the gilded youth in question.
A few evenings ago the clergyman
was invited to call on tlie young man
and thinking ho waa to get an expla* a
tion of liis strange conduct he made the
visit. He just entered the door when
his first salute wa< a stinging left-han
der in the fticc. It was then that he di
vested himself of his garments and the
youth was taught a lesson he richly de
served. So badly was he done up by the
reverend pugilist that he spent a week
in a private hospital to recuperate from
the effects of the thrashing.
As the brother and father of the affi
anced lady promised similar proceed
ings the young man thought discretion
the better part of valor and to escape
further liehrings married the girl, and
this morning Mr. Bartley performed
the long postponed ceremony.
The affair only leaked this evening
and created a sensation of which the
pugilistic parson Is the hero.
Battling With a Stallion.
PmcsQi’K Island, Me., August 1.—
Harvey A. Smith had a desperate bat
tle with a stallion to-day. The stallion
is dead and .Smith still lives, but is in a
sadly crippled condition. During last
winter lie drove a team in the lumhcr
woods, of which one animal was a stal
lion that no one but Smith could han
dle. This summer lie has worked the
stallion uua his mate on the farm. To
day the stallion became vicious and
frantically attacked liis mate with teeth
and hoofs. Mr. Smith uncoupled the
horses, when the stallion attacked him.
He is a powerful and very resolute
man, and after a fierce struggle, hi
which he was severely wounded in the
hip by the animal’s feet, ho succeeded
in subduing the horse and leading him
to the barn. He liitc ; .od him on the
barn floor, removed the harness and
was proceeding to take him to a stall
when the vicious animal again attacked
him. The wind .blew tho barndoor
shut and M r. Smith foiiud himself im
prisoned with the frantic brute.
• For nearly half an hour be fought
liim with no weapon but his fists, but
being often knocked down and fearfully
bruised he foiiud his strength failing
and was just milking up his mind that
it was all up with him when the horse
disengaged a sled stake from the side of
the mow and Smith saw it rolling tow
ard him. Seizing the stake he swung
it with all the strength of dcs|ieration,
and ttriking the stallion behind the ear
he laid him dead at his feet.

Horrible Treatment of the Jews—Sub

Ixinoox, August 1.—The statement
made l»y the British charge de affairs,
St. Petersburg, and qnoted in the house
of commons last night, that- the Russian
government had altered its treatment
of the Jews, is v, holly at variance w ith
ail other advices on that subject. Let
ters received here from Moscow ami St.
Petersburg mention that the laws
against the Hefirews are being enforced
with renewed severity. The ignorant
peasantry, taking advantage of the prej
udices show n iiy the authorities, plun
der the Jews at will.
In one village hear Kertch a Jew was
put iindcrtorturo to compel him to sur
render his money, and other valuables.
The robbers pulled out tw o of bis toe
nail* before he would reveal the hiding
place of his treasure, which at last he
did. No steps have been taken to pun
ish the miscreants, guilty of this and
other outrages, and all apjieals to tbc
police are in vain.
It is said that England and France
have demanded indemnity from the
Argentine Republic for property of sub
jects of those countries to the value of
$10,000,000, deal roved by the recent
iMnnburdment of Buenos Ayes by the
rebellious navy. The combiued fleets
of England and France, it is stated, are
to assemble at Bnenos Ayres to support

tlieabseuceo: the cs-cupuntsof the place,
stole from $2.1 to $30 worth of clothing

The Governors and the Force Bill.
Special by New* Telegram Association.
IIaltimoim:, Aug. 1.—-The Sun this
morning publishes replies to a recently
»uldreused circular to the governors of
the various states requesting their opin
ions of the elections bill.
'The governor of Vermont says;
‘There'is no need of such legislation as
the Lodge hill contemplates in the state
of Vermont.”
Governor Davis, of Rhode Island says:
‘I think the proposed aict, is an ex
pression of the worst and most unwar
rantable partisanship ever contemplated
hy federal legislation within the histety
of the union.”
Governor Biggs, of Delaware, says:
“I condemn it, as it is a measure un
called for, atul not only unconstitutional
but unwise and injudicious.”
Governor Hill, of New York, replies
by sending a copy of his recent speech
at Indianapolis, which, he says, gives
his sentiments.
Governor Taylor, of Tennessee, says:
‘The bill is an envious stab at a pros
pering Sriuth. There is no need in my
state for legislation that is designed to
foment strife, murder and riot.”
Governor Fleming, of Florida, said:
’The passage of tlie bill would evidence
hostility, toward tlie South, at which it
is aimed, by the Northern republicans.”
Governor Jackson, of Maryland, said:
“It Is an unwise ami extremely par
tisan measure, fraught with much evil
to the country generally. It will have
a blighting effect, if passed, upon the
business interests of the South; will
hauler and obstruct their development
and revive, instead of allay, the un
friendly relations between the North
and South.

SMALLPOX ON THE FRONTIER.
The Mttd Visitation of a Mexican City
Causes Will Rumors.
Eaoi.k l*ass, Texas, July 30.—For
tenday8 past alarming rumors have
been rife of an epidemic cf smallpox ra
ging on the Mexican frontier. The
most circumstantial of the rumors stat
ed that half of the population ef Ciudad
Porftrio Diaz, formerly I’iedrns Negras,
was down with the disease, and the in
fected area extendcp one hundred miles
inward, not only along the line of the
Mexican International Railroad, but to
outlying cities; that all interchange of
traffic between the Southern Pacific and
Mexican International railroads would
stop and the aiithurii.es seemed to he
doing nothing to arrest the plague.
The fact which is bad enough without
exaggeration, is that smallpox undoubt
edly exists in sufficient foree to excite
apprehension in the city of Porftrio
Duut, immeuiutely opposite Kagli Pass,
on the bank of the Rio Grande 8a
day last thirty-two cases were officially
reported, six of which were critical and
twenty-six convalescent. Dr. Evans,
of this - itv, at the request of State
Health Officer Eriehson, made an inves-
l igatlon yesterday and reported twenty-
throe cases in all, only one of whit h
was anew ease. Tho authorities of

mild type, the percentage of deaths be
