GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAI
An honest, and -what appears to be a con
stitutional effort, is being made in this city
to have a law enacted to legalize poolsell
ing in cities throughout the State. To put
the matter short, a movement has com
menced to have the poolrooms re-established.
A number of Pittsburgers, whose object is
to make poolselling or betting on horse races
as honest and honorable as possible, have
had a bill prepared on the subject This
bill has been submitted to some well-known
lawyers who claim that it provides for
nothing unconstitutional. The bill will be
introduced to the Legislature within a few
days by a local member, and the promoters of
the measure rely on its fairness as a means
or success. Following are the provisions of the
bill:
MERITS OF THE SIEASUBE.
It declares itself to be an act to legalize and
regulate the selling of pools in the State of
Pennsylvania on trials of speed conducted by
racing associations incorporated under :he
laws of any Commonwealth, and to provide for
the granting of a license for the .same and the
imposing of a penalty for a violation of tbe
provisions of the said act. The preamme lur
ther sets forth that the object is to protect
pooUelling on trials of speed of horses con
nected with any association organized for the
purpose of improving the breeding of thor
oughbred or trotting horses.
Section one of the bill sets forth that it shall
become the duty of the treasurer of any city,
town, borough cr township to issue licenses to
persons to sell pools on horse races conducted
tinder the auspices and control of any legally
chartered assoc lation. the license to be issued
for one year.
Section two deals with the amount to be paid
for the licenses,and provides: "In all cities of the
first class the amount to be paid to the treasurer
of such city or cities for the above-mentioned
license shall be the sum of 52,000. In all second
class cities the sum of $1,500 shall be paid for
each license."
In third-class cities the license fee proposed
Is S2S, and in all other cities, towns or boroughs
the fee is to be 10. The section concludes by
demanding that the selling of pools under the
license granted shall be conducted in a manner
so as tola "nowise interfere with the peace and
good order of this Commonwealth."
WHEBE THE MOXET GOES.
Section three provides that all revenues ac
cruing from the sale of licenses shall De handed
in .with the general taxation of the respective
cities, towns, boroughs or townships in which
tbe licensed poolsellers are doing business.
The treasurer who issues such licenses is to re
cieye the fee of $1 for each license.
Section four provides that all persons selling
pools without first taking out a license shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction
shall be punished by imprisonment in the
county jail or workhouse for a period of not
less than six months nor more than two years.
The above bill is, doubtless, a step in a new
direction, and one of its greatest and best
features is the attempt to make poolselling or
betting as much of a fair dealing business as
possible. Should the bill become a law it
would seem impossible for other than the most
responsible people to become identified with
ths-management of poolrooms. In this respect
the general public is
THE PEOTECTED PABTY.
, A host of moral philosophers claim that as
long as there are contests and tbe public has a
desire to bet on results, there will be betting.
If there is any truth in this, it would seem ad
visable to protect the public against impostors.
li tne dui oecomes a law it will no longer do
easy for itinerant poolsellers to have control of
the leading tracks, because any firm or firms
that may be organized in this city will be in a
position to prevent any unlicensed stranger
from coming. True, a race track association
may apply and obtain a license, but it Is not
likely that any track here would pay
1,500 for the privilege. But according to the
bill a license can be obtained for, say. Home
wood track, for S10, and the track directors
could easily make arrangements with any pool
seller they choose to sell for them. Allegheny
will be permitted to obtain a license for 20; in
short. Philadelphia is tbe only hrst class city
and Pittsburg the only one in the second class
at present. But tbe Philadelphia tracks are
outside city limits, just as Homewood is.
The great object of the bill in this respect,
however, is to legalize poolselling in cities
away from the tracks. It is stated that the
bill has excellent support" both here and in
Philadelphia.
BALI. PLAYERS' CONDUCT.
Ulanacer Phillips Points Oat tbe Benefit of
Good Behavior.
Manager Phillips talked frankly about the
effects of good conduct among ball players
yesterday. During a conversation on the sub
ject be said:
"Depend upon it, rigid discipline will be en
forced among our players next season. If
players really knew the wortn of good be
havior there would be little need of rigid rules.
As an illustration I will tell of a circumstance
that took place at Washington in which our
club was concerned. When we first went there
we put up at tbe Arlington House. I
knew tbe manager, and during our
next two visits we stopped there. On
the third occasion Mr. Bennett, the proprietor,
was at the hotel aDd I was introduced to him.
After we had conversed a little ho turned
around and asked tbe manager who all the
young men reading tbe papers were. He was
told that they were the Pittsburg ball players.
I thought I told you to allow no more ball
players to stop here,' was Mr. Bennett's reply.
The manager went on to say that the club bad
been thrice there that season. Mr.. Bennett
made inquiries and found that our boys had
conducted themselves like gentlemen, and he
said to me 'Mr. Phillips, we have had some
awful times here with ball players, and I re
solved to keep them clear of this house. How
ever, your people are welcome after what I
have heard.' Mr. Bennett presented us with a
box of excellent cigars and said, Call
again.'"
PRESIDENT NIMICK'S OPINION.
Gossip Abont the Reserve Role and tbe In.
dinnnpolis Case.
During a conversation on the Indianapolis
ease yesterday President Nimick 6tated that
the League directors will probably have to deal
Np'th tbe matter. He repeated his opinion that
jfadianapolis will be in line when the season
opens. He is a League director, and so far has
received no intimation from President Young
of a meeting.
Mr. Nimick also mentioned the new rules re
lating to reservation. It is thought that after
n days elapse the Indianapolis players will be
free to go where they choose, as the Indianap
olis clnb has disbanded. However, it is likely
that the League will take charge of the entire
team, and that will keep matters all right.
Against Sunday Gnmcs.
Chicago, January 23. Tbe City Baseball
League is in great distress for fear the bill
Senator Garrity proposes to introduce in the
State Senate, prohibiting ball playing inside
the city limits on Sunday, will pass.
The making of this bill into a State law would
effectually put an end to the business of the
City League, as all its games are played on
Sundays, neither the players nor those attend
ing the games having time for such business on
other days. The majority of the players in the
City League are young men who are employed
during the week.
During the last Legislature a similar bill was
Introduced In the House by Representative
Vickers, but was killed in the Senate.
He Wants a Rnce.
Samuel Simcox, owner of Dnnborn Wilkes,
the 2-year-old trotting nag he desires to track
against any 2-year-old in Pittsburg or McKees-
purt for 250 or $500 a corner, will end the ani
mal to Chicago next week for the races at that
1
piace.
A BUSINESS MOVE.
Why the Indlnnapolis Clnb Director
Called a Halt.
ISFECXAL TELIGI-.AM TO THE DISPATCH. 1
Indianapolis, January 23. It seems that
there is a string to the League franchise that
was surrendered by the directors of the In
dianapolis Baseball Club on Monday, and
although it is not positively known to be a
fact, it is now suspected tbac the move was
made to rid the management of troublsome
stockholders, and was, as it has been question
ably stated, merely a matter of business. How
ever, Brush declares that the franchise was
surrendered in good faith, and that the club
is entirely under the control of the League.
Efforts to get satisfactory information from
President Young as to what disposition may be
made of the franchise have been unsuccessful.
Mr. Young says that there is nothing that can
be done now except to place a formal applica
tion on file with him. The disposition of the
franchise must be determined by Spalding,
Mr. Day and himself. Mr. Spalding is on the
other side of the world and Mr. Day is sick, so
that the filling of the vacancy must remain In
statu quo.
It is regarded as certain that the club will re
main here another year at least. Mr. Young
has intimated that tbe League may decide to
play the club here itself, and if it is not willing
to do so there are two different firms and a
local syndicate that are ready to take the
franchise upon tbe same terms that it was
given the bankrupt association. The firms are
Dickson & Talbott, the theatrical managers,
and Charles Mayer & Co., wholesale dealers in
toys and sporting goods, while the syndicate is
headed by Lcuis Newberger, who was the first
President of the association that has just
failed.
Before surrendering the franchise the di
rectors of the club gave J. C. McCntcheon. a
local capitalist, a bill of sale for the grand
stand and seats on the grounds in consideration
of a claim for JLOOO. He refuses to accept the
amount of bis claim with interest from any of
the parties anxious to get control of the club,
and it is believed, therefore, that the directors
have had no Intention of allowing tbe club to
leave this city, and that they surrendered the
franchise with the understanding that they can
buy it back when they want it
ANOTHER VERSION.
President Brush Makes a Definite State
ment About the Boosters.
Indianapolis, January 21 President
Brush, of the Indianapolis Clnb, makes the fol
lowing definite statement:
"Mr. Young simply represents the League,
but he can do nothing about the franchise un
til its disposition has been fully passed upon
by all the representatives of the League com
pact. So far as Inaianapolis is concerned, the
surrender is absolute and unconditional, and
Dickson and Talbott, or whoever else may wish
to continue the club, will have to go through
the same procedure which we did in 1ES7. The
franchise is now back in the League's possess
ion absolutely, and there is no string to It. I
cannot make it more explicit. The surrender
was made by telegram yesterday, and an of
ficial letter has also been forwarded. I want
to seo the club continued. It is a good thing
for the citv, and I am wining to suoscnoe to a
fund of $25,000 for its maintenance if other
gentlemen will join."
Mr. Brush said, as illustrating the disadvan
tages under which the organization labored, that
uih.n ?,a Tlotrtitc nlt t1,Air ii,1H Trv hail
rtheir choice of three or fourof the best players,
Dut lack ot money prevented, ine rresiaent
cf the club, however, gave them an option on
Getzein, holding it until yesterday, when It
was surrendered. It is now thought Getzein
will go to Washington.
EATING UP THE SHEEP.
Loenl Rifle Shooters Invited to Kill a
Desperate Panther.
Messrs. Huggins, Brehmand Jones and other
local rifle shooters have been invited to visit
Tiger Hollow, in the vicinity of Chartiers, to
kill a panther. According to a Mr. Bradley,
who resides at Tiger Hollow, his panthership
is gobbling np almost all the sheep in the
neighborhood.
Mr. Bradley visited Mr. Huggins yesterday
and implored him and his friends to visit the
Hollow at once with their rifles. It is stated
that the panther has been roving round for
several weeks and has escaped all the gun and
rifle shots and death traps of the farmers.
Where be has come from is not known. Mr.
Huggins says that he and his friends will make
it their business to try and capture the pan
ther. No TJse for White.
Boston, January 23. The Boston club this
afternoon gave Homung his release. No
League club has bid for his purchase.
The signature of Charley Bennett to a con
tract for 1889, which was obtained in Detroit
yesterday, was not a surprise, as it was known
to be fully arranged for. "Deacon" White may
now "gang bis ain gait." The directors have
come to no decision regarding Wise and Mor
rill. President Soden says that the Indian
apolis club will surely remain in the League
with the same officers as at present. They are
simply getting rid of unsatisfactory stock
holders, as the Boston club did.
Will Stop the Fun.
Minneapolis, Minn., January 23. The in
dications are that there will be no more prize
fighting in this city for the present. After the
Cardiff-Fell contest last night there was an in
cipient row in the rink, which has led authori
ties to consider seriously the policy of
stopping all fistic exhibitions, and to-day a bill
making prize-fighting or the making or ac
cepting of challenges a penal offense was intro
duced in the State Legislature, and will
probably become a law.
Pool PInying nt FIndlav.
rSrXCIAL TELrGBAK TO THE DISFATCH.1
Ftndlay, O., January 23. There wasa match
game of pool played here last evening between
Jack Carroll and G. S. Williams for 100 aside
and tbe championship of Northwestern Ohio.
Tbey were to play the best 13 out of 25. Carroll
won. having won 13 to Williams' 5. A good
deal of money changed bands.
Sporting Notes.
It now looks almost certain that the Hoosiers
will hold on.
Medical authorities state that Sullivan is
still a sick man.
Manager Mutrie laughs at the idea that
Indianapolis has retired from the League.
The Giants and the Athletics will play two
games before tbe championship season opens.
Harry Bethcne writes a New York friend
that he is doing about two yards better than
even time in 100 yards. This will hardly beat
Wharton.
If any clnb that has already agreed to play
in an association during next season breaks its
agreement to play with the League there will
be more trouble.
President Davidson says there is no truth
in the report that Hecker and Cook have been
traded to Baltimore for First Baseman Tucker,
though negotiations are pending for a transfer
of these players.
It is reported that after Jack Fogarty gets
through tiaining Harry Walton for the latterV
go with Cal McCarthy he will take into consid
eration a proposition to spar Le Blanche, tbe
Marine, 10 or 15 rounds.
Mb. William Easton yesterday sold an im
ported thoroughbred stallion and fonr thor
oughbred brood mares at private sale to Mrs.
Langtrv. The stock will be sent to Mrs. Lang
try's ranch in California.
Twelve female bicyclists have entered for a
six-day's race at Madison Square Garden, be
ginning Monday, February 11, and ending on
the following Saturday. Only three more can
be accepted, as the limit is 15.
When the American Association schedule is
made public it will show that tbe season will
open on April 17 and close on October 14. The
Eastern clubs will open in tho East, and the
Western clubs in the West. The Eastern cl obs
will then go West It is not known just what
clubs will play together at the start off.
The final game in the bookmakers' cushion
carrom handicap tournament was to have been
played Tuesday night between Davy Johnson
and Charles Heineman, but the TremontClub
gathering were disappointed, Heineman for
feiting. This gives Johnson tbe first prize.
$500, with Heineman and Reeves a tie for sec
ond place. The second prize monev will prob
ably oe divided if it is not played off in private.
There is talk of another series of games be
tween tbe pencillers of odds at the races, tbe
idea being to have it played in a larger hall.
UNLIMITED WEALTH
Said to be Possessed by Wyoming Asking
for Admission.
"Washington, January 23. Delegate
Carey, of Wyoming, to-day addressed the
House Committee on Territories in behalf of
the passage by Congress of an enabling act
for the admission of the Territory of
"Wyoming into the Union as a State. He
came at the invitation of the committee,
and spoke at length upon its area and the
resources and intelligence of its people.
The coal lands in the Territory, he said,
covered an area of not less than 5,000,000
acres; her oil lands were more than equal
to all the oil lands in .Pennsylvania, Ohio
and West Virginia combined, and she had
as fine iron deposits as are found in the
United States.

London, January 23. Copyright
Dennis Tobin, of Kerry, a moonlighter and
a paid perpetrator of outrages, according to
his somewhat halting story, enlivened the
proceedings of the Commission Court to
day. Unfortunately for his employers
Tobin overdid his part. In addition to ac
cusing the league of paying for outrages,
he gave an elaborate account of a moonlight
organization, with its sections, leader, pass
words and all the usual machinery of secret
societies.
Tobin deposed that he was a member of
the Kilconoly band of moonlighters. He
said that when the members of the band
were sworn the leader told them that, by
order of the League, tenants who paid their
rents were to be raided. The moonlighters
were ranged in divisions, each division re
ceiving orders from a captain, who also fur
nished the men with arms. The arms were
hidden away when not in use. The moon
lighters were paid for committing outrages.
Witness' set received 5 for making a raid
on the' cattle of an obnoxious farmer, and
another time they got 7s 6d each for slaugh
tering the cattle on a Miss Thompson's
farm.
Mr. Russell smiled while he listened, and
with reason, for Tobin's evidence on these
points smashed and pulverized the mass of
the testimony previously given by a score
of policemen.landlords and laud agents who
scouted the idea of there beta? any secret
societies in Ireland except theJFenians, and
who placed all outrages to the credit of the
unorganized lawlessness of members of the
League. Tobin fell to pieces in cross-examination
and left the box with the bewildered
air of a man conscious that he had made an
ass of himself, but uncertain how and why
he had done so.
CHAJIBEELAIN GOOD UATURED.
Ho Says the Rejection of tbe Fish Treaty
Is No Sign of American III Will.
London, January 23. Mr. Chamberlain
addressed a ' meeting at Birmingham to
night, and met with an enthusiastic recep
tion. Mrs. Chamberlain occupied a seat on
the platform. A letter was read from Mr.
Bright's son, who wrote that his father's
health was steadily improving and that his
general condition was much better than it
was a month ago.
Mr. Chamberlain, in the course of his re
marks, referred to the rejected fisheries
treaty. He said that his mission to Amer
ica bad been one of peace and good will,
and had resulted in the treaty being ac
cepted by both Governments as an honor
able solution of the question at issue. The
treaty had been rejected in the Senate by a
strict party vote, and he was not disposed
to overestimate the prominence of that vote.
He was convinced that the feeling of cor
dial friendship between the two peoples was
so great and firm that nothing would be
permitted long to interfere with it,
Cheers.
During bis absence on bis second fortun
ate visit to the United States. Cries of
"Hear, bear," be had followed closely
events' in Parliament. What struck him
most was the remarkable prominence of the
Irish question. It was evident that the
country felt the importance of other ques
tion? Doubtless tbe improved condition of
Ireland, which was largely due to the wise
and firm administration of Mr. Balfour.had
contributed to keep down the clamor of the
Parnellites. He (Chamberlain) believed
that the Gladstonians were" finding out that
home rule by itself was not a name to con
jure with, and that, henceforth the Glad
stonian platform would give prominence to
other questions questions upon which the
Liberals as formerly, might agree.
O'BRIEN STILL THERE.
On the Eve of His Trial Ho Fays His Re
spects to His Fcrsecntprs.
Dublin, January 23. Mr. Wm. O'Brien,
whose trial begins to-morrow, arrived at
Clonmel to-night. An enormous crowd had
gathered at the railway station to greet him,
and he was accorded a splendid ovation.
One thousand torch-bearers, accompanied
by six bands of music, paraded the streets
in his honor. Mr. O'Brien addressed the
crowd from the steps of the town hall. In
the course of an eloquent speech he said
that the results of the Covan contest and
the county council elections in London
show that at the next general election the
evil brood of coercionists would vanish like
unclean spirits at the dawn of day.
A GAELIC SPLIT.

Dublin, Jannary 23. The Gaelic Con
gress met at Thurles to-day for the purpose
of electing an executive. During the pro
ceedings a tumult arose, and President
Daven, unable to obtain a hearing for the
financial statement, left the meeting, fol
lowed by a number of priests and delegates.
The remaining delegates elected a Central
Council, but repudiated the responsibility
for debts amounting to 500. Mr. Daven
and the other seceders will start another
association. There were 40 detectives on
duty in the vicinity of the meeting place
during the proceedings. $)
ROSEBERRI'S PREDICTION.
He Believes tbe British Elector Will Event
ually Give Erin Home Rule.
London, January 23. Lord Eoseberry,
in a,speech at Scarborough this evening,
said that the British elector liked to chew
the cud of politics, and it seemed likely
that at, the end of his rumination he would
be in favor of home rule. The speaker con
firmed from his own personal knowledge the
extracts quoted in Pierrepont's diary of
conversations with Disraeli, in which the
latter favored giving Ireland something like
an American State Legislature.

Berlin, January 23. The remains of
Mme. Di Mnrska and her daugbter were

Murska's Austrian husband and a dozen
members of the Gotha Opera Company

"These ashes are all that remain of a

The Hague, January 23. A sensation

PBOGEESSIYE POTTEES .
Will Encourage American An and Compete
With the Famous Foreign Potteries
Prizes for Designers An In-
terestlng Convention.
SPECIAL TBLIQBAM TO TIIE DISFATCB.l
Washington, January 23. At the
forenoon session of the thiiteentb. annual
convention of the Potters' Association of
the -United States to-day new officers were
elected for the ensuing year as follows:
President, Thomas Haddock, of Trenton;
First Vice President, William Brunt, 6f
East Liverpool; Second Vice President,
George W. Oliver, of Syracuse; Third Vice
President, S. J. Scott, Cincinnati; Treasu
rer, J. H. Goodwin, East Liverpool; Secre
tary, Alfred Day, Steubenville. These are
the old officers, with the exception of Brunt
and Oliver.
The sessions were short and of very
little interest to the general public,
with the exception of the report of
he Committee on Art and Design, made
by the Chairman, Mr. 1). F. Haynes,
of Baltimore. This contained a rec
ommendation that a liberal prize or scries
of prizes be offered for artistic designs in the
matter of form and decoration, to be given
to the successful competitors amongthe
pupils of the schools oi design in the various
cities of the country, for the purpose of en
couraging the production of original and
artistic designs and decorations Try purely
American talent. This report and recom
mendation were received with great favor
by the members of the convention, and were
unanimously adopted. A resolution was
also adopted offering a prize for the coming
year of 5300 for the invention of improved
machinery for the use of the trade.
It is generally agreed among members
that this has been one of the most interest
ing and profitable Conventions ever held, as
it has given evidence of the rapid drift of
opinion in the direction of the production
of the finer and more artistic classes of
ceramic ware. The vast bulk of tbe im
portation from foreign countries is of this
product, while the American manufacturer
has been confining himself almost entirely
to the cheaper grades of earthenware, and
the tendency now is to attack the famous
foreign potteries on their own ground, and,
if possible, to give to the world a fine and
artistio porcelain which will make for the
United States a reputation in this field along
with France, Italy, China and Japan,
This evening the members of the conven
tion and their families are enjoying an ele
gant banquet at Willard's Hotel. One hun
dred covers are laid, and a number of Con
gressmen and newspaper correspondents are
the honored guests of the potters. The con
vention will again meet next January in
this city.
A DEFIANT PARSON.
An Opponent of Secret Societies Who Pays
No Regard to Threats.
Chicago, January 23. Kev. Mr. Milton,
of Elgin, who has received notice to prepare
to die because of his attacks on secret socie
ties, is more bitter on the latter than ever,
and says he will never let up on them. He
is especially severe on the Fjjee Masons.
Said he: "It is an evil worship, and it
charms and draws a man on as a snake
draws on its victims to sudden death.
Those who join do not go into
the lodge from any motive of good.
I realize that in speaking as I have done of
Masonry I have virtually taken my -life in
my own hands. A friend of mine, who was
a member of the lodge, was present when
the murder of Morgan was planned, and was
hit in the head with a large stone and near
ly killed.
"Masonry and other societies have grown
terribly since the war, and to-day we are
honeycombed by secret societies. It is an
evil work and devil worship. It is the
same as the worship of Baal in the days oi
old."
Mr. Milton gives the name ot the member
of the Order of Woodmen who, he says, is
dogging his footsteps, and there is great ex
citement in Elgin in consequence.

A WEST VIRGINIA CAUCUS.
Democrats Gather In Conference and Re
solve to Support tho Nominee.
Chakleston, W. Va., January 23. The
Democrats are in caucus to-night with all
members present. The election of the United
States Senator will be delayed until next
Tuesday, and the Democratic vote will
scatter until that day. There seems to be
no doubt that at that time the issue will
be squarely drawn between the Republican
and Democratic candidates, each supported
by the nominee of his party. There are no
kickers on either side.
The Democrats were in session until mid
night, but did not nominate. It is said by a
Democratic member of the caucus that they
will make a nomination in caucus tomorrow
night, and that the nominee will be J. E.
Kenna. It was decided by the caucus to
night to support the nominee.
ENGLAND MAKING TROUBLE
For the German Colonizers in Zanzibar X
Fruitless Blockade.
Berlin, January 23. The Deutsche
Wochenblatt pripts a Zanzibar letter which
says that the blockade on the east coast of
Africa has only fomented disorder and has
failed to check the slave traffic. The writer
complains of a lack of energy on the part
of the German Consul, and says that if Sir
John Kirk returns to Zanzibar as the Brit
ish Consul, as reported, it will mean the
restoration of absolute English supremacy.
The writer accuses England of stirring up
the feeling against tbe Germans.

6PECIAL TELEGRAM TO TBS DISPATCH.!
New Yobk, January 23. Selina Dolaro,
a singer, who has been popular in opera
bouffe for 20 years in England and America,
died suddenly to-night at her home, 365
West Thirty-third street, next door to Mrs.
Langtry's -house.
For three years Mme. Dolaro has been
too ill to appear on the stage, and has sup
ported herself by writing. A book called
"Mes Amours," published by her two years
ago, has had a considerable circulation. It
purported to be a collection of letters writ
ten to her. In her last days Mme. Dolaro
wrote a novel, "Bella Demonia," which will
shortly be published.
Mme. Dolaro was an inveterate first
nighter, even in her sickness, and she had
procured tickets for Mrs. Langtry's "Mac
beth" on Monday last, but was unable to
witness the performance. On Saturday
night last Mme. Dolaro went to her pub
lisher's house, and returning to her home
was seized with hemhorages. She grew
constantly weaker until she died.
Mme. -Dolaro was born in England. She
married when she was 14 years of age, and
went on tho, stage in London when she was
.17, in one of Offenbach's operas. She
brought out in London, under her own
management, "Trial by Jury," the first of
Gilbert & Sullivan's operas. Under Colonel
Mapleson's engagement Mme. Dolaro came
to this country in 1881 to sing in "Car
men" in Italian. Afterward she sang in
"La Grande Dnchesse," "La Perichole"
and "La Fille de Mme. Angot," and in
other light operas under the management of
M. B. Leavitt and Colonel McCaull. In
her prime she was very popular with New
York theater-goers. Mnie. Dolaro wrote a
play called "Justine," which was
brought out at the Park Theater by
John A. Stevens. It was not a success.
A play called "In the Fashion," written
by Mme. Dolaro, was sold to Shook &
Collier, and was afterward returned to Mme.
Dolaro. The play was sold to Henry E.
Abbey and produced by him in the Lyceum
Theater under the name of "Fashion."
Mme. Dolaro last appeared in the Lyceum
Theater with Helen Dauvray in the play of
"One of Our Girls."
She has a son and a daughter, Genevieve,
both of whom are cast in Mrs. Langtry's
"Macbeth," atthe Fifth Avenue Theater.
Another son is in Europe, and a second
daughter lived at home with her mother.
Her last request was that she should not be
buried in the actors' plot.
CONGRESSMAN BURNES DEAD.
He Dies a Few Hoars After Having Been
Stricken With Paralysis.
The following late dispatch from Wash
ington announces the death of Congresman
Burnes, who was seized with paralysis
while in his seat in Congress yesterday, an
account of which will be found in another
column:
Washington, January 21 At 12:46 a.
M. Mr. Burnes passed quietly and peace
fully away. He was unconscious from 7
o'clock until his death. His son, D. D.
Burnes, and his brother, Fielding Burnes,
were at his bedside when he'died, as were
also Congressmen McCreary, of Kentucky;
Dockery, of Missouri; Gallinger, of New
Hampshire; Henderson, of Iowa, and Barry,
of Mississippi; Colonel Morrison, of Illinois;
Dr. Sowers, his physician, and one or two
others.
Nelson Burnes of St; Joseph, Mo., was
born in Indiana in 1832, His father was a
native of Culpepper county, Va., and emi
grated to Indiana and thence to Missouri,
where he was one of the pioneers in what
was known as the Platte district. Mr.
Burnes graduated from the Harvard Law
School in 1853. He returned to his native
place and practiced law for 20 years,
finally leaving it to attend to his
large business interests. In 1856 he
was a Presidental elector and voted for
Buchanan and Breckenridge. From 18G8
to 1872 he was Judge of the Court of Com
mon Pleas. This was his third successive
term in Congress, he having been first
elected to Forty-eighth Congress. He was
considered a man of ability by his fellow
members and served on important commit
tees. During Mr. Randall's absence he
frequently acted as Chairman of the Com-''
mittee on Appropriations.
Mr. Burnes was a man of large wealth,
and it is estimated that the family, who
hold all their property in common, are
worth from 81,000,000 to $2,000,000, largely
invested in bankinginstitutions. He leaves
a wife and two sons and s?ven adopted chil
dren of a deceased brother.
The House to-morrow will adjourn imme
diately after assembling in respect to the
memory of the deceased. No arrangements
have yet been made for the funeral, but
they will probably be under the general
direction of a joint Congressional committee,
PROHIBITION LOSING GROUND.
Chance of Popular Sontiment In tho State
of Massachusetts.
Boston, January 23. gome interesting
figures showing the tendency of Massachu
setts on the question of licensing the sale of
intoxicating liquor were submitted to the
Legislature to-day by the Secretary of
State. In 1886 out of 349 cities and
towns only 74, or 21 per cent, voted to
grant license. The popular majority
against license showed 50.9 per cent of
the people of the State to be in favor of
the policy of prohibition. In 1887, with
the same number of cities and towns, 63
voted yea. The majority against license
had become 51.58 per cent of the total. The
total vote was 16.6 per cent greater than in
1886.
In 1887, when the number of cities and
towns was 351, 85, or 22 per cent, voted yes.
The total vote increased 2.5 per cent in this
year, and 53.45 per cent was in favor of li
cense. This is quite a set-back for the pro
hibitionists. A MIDNIGHT EXPLOSION.
Three Men Killed nnd Others Injured In a

Wilkesbabre, January 23. About
12:30 to-night an explosion occurred in
slope No. 24 at Nanticoke, where a
gang of engineers were at work
making surveys. P. S. Scharsus, one
of the engineers, was blown to pieces, and
Chet Owens, another engineer, was instantly
killed, and John Williams, a third, was

Sirs. Parsons Talks Mildly and the Police Do
Not Interfere.
Chicago, January 23. The second
speech in public by Mrs. Parsons, the
Anarchist, since the execution of her hus
band, was made to-night before a small
meeting in Waverly Hall. In accord
ance with Judge Tuley's decision
she was not interfered with by the police.
The speech was bright and bitter, but broke
'Mrs. Parson's recrd in that it contained
nothing which could, be called incendiary.
HIS YIALSOF WBATH.
Continued from First Page.
pfovisions of the act should receive its State
appropriation, Mr. Brown, to head off a
constitutional objection Mr. Fow, of Phila
delphia, was trying to raise, moved a sub
stitute which provided for the removal of
school directors refusing to comply with the
act. The amendment was rejected, and Mr.
Fow raised the point that the Legislature
could not attach conditions to an appropria
tion provided by the Constitution. The
Speaker, after a dialogue between Messrs.
Hall and Hassett, decided that Mr. Fow's
point was not in order.
The temper of the Hduse was, shown in
votes on various minor amendments, one for
instance, providing for affirmation as well
as oath that directors have complied with
the law, being so close that a division was
called for, the vote standing 107 to 62 for
the affirmative when the members were com
pelled to answer to their names and go on
record.
Mr. Marland got through an amendment
that only the American flag be displayed
from the school flagstaff, and the bill finally
passed second reading by a vote of 98 to 71.
There was a great deal of excitement during
the debate, and many on the floor seemed
disposed to treat the question as a huee joke
which they ought to help along.
FOW'S FUNNY MISTAKE.
The gentleman improved on Mr. Wherry's
idea by asking that the American flag be
displayed in school, and that it be inter
twined with the arms of the Commonwealth.
An amusing feature of the debate was the
mistake of Mr. Fow, who imagined it was
Mr. Brown's intent to have the flagstaff
erected inside the building, and there was a
general laugh when the member from Phila
delphia excitedly arose and inquired how it
was to be done.
After the bill had passed second reading,
Captain Dravo, whose bill was introduced
before Captain Brown's, but reported from
the committee later, made a personal state
ment in which he said his position on the
subject had been persistently misrepresented,
and deprecating the position in which he
had been placed. He did not complain,
however, he said, but complained at the
same time of the false position in which he
had been placed. Captain Dravo feels
strongly on the subject.
The drift of talk to-night is that the bill
will pass third reading, if at all, by a close
vote. Attention is called to the fact that,
according to the bill, the flag must be dis
played in all kinds of weather, which will
make the display a very costly one. Ex
Speaker Graham estimates the expense un
der these circumstances at nearly $1,000,000
a year. This afternoon two small Ameri
can flags graced the desks of Captain Brown
and Mr. Fow, who sat together. The mem
bers took off their hats to the national colors
as they passed by. Simpson.
MURDER WILL OUT.
Mrs. ClnfT Alleges That Her Daughter Was
Poisoned by Her Husband and Physician.
rSFSCIAI. TELEQBAAI TO THE DISFATCH.1
New Yobk, January 23. The body of
Mrs. Sarah Jane Weeks was disinterred in
Calvary Cemetery yesterday. She was
buried April 20, 1888. She lived at 706
Bedford avenue, Brooklyn. Dr. Blackman
certified that death was caused by heart
disease. Mrs. Mary Jane Clnff, her mother,
who lives at 14 Cannon street, New York,
now says that her daughter was poisoned.
In her affidavit, made before Coroner John
Homeyer, of Newtown, she says it is her
belief that Dr. Blackman and the dead
woman's husband conspired to poison her
daughter. She says that, on April 18, Mrs.
Shaughnessy and Mrs. Daly, both neigh
bors, were in her garden with her daughter.
Dr. Blackman approached her and asked
her how she felt. Upon her replying that
she felt about as usual, he said: "No, you
are going to have a spasm, but it won't
amount to much. I will give you a powder
that will keep you all right."
Then he did eive her a powder, which she
took, and in less than ten minutes afterward
she was taken with spasms, and shortly
afterward became unconscious. She died in
a little over an hour.

Itlasked Men Attempt to Rob a Train, bnt
Are Thrown Down no Embankment.
rEFECIAI. TELEOEAM TO THE DISPATCH.!
Cincinnati, January 23. The south
bound express on the Cincinnati Southern
road was boarded by robbers just beyond
Ludlow last night. The train had scarcely
got beyond the lights of Ludlow
when a man, heavily masked,
knocked at the rear door of the express
car, and one of the messengers, thinking it
was the conductor or brakeman, opened the
door. The fellow at once made for the front
door, where a vigorous pounding announced
the presence of another person. The mes
senger, Harry Carroll, and his assistant
made a desperate fight and succeeded in
dumping the would-be robber off, and he
rolled down an embankment and disap
peared. The other robber seemed to realize
that something was wrong and his knocking
ceased.
At the top of the grade the messenger
pulled the bell-rope and stopped the train,
but the robber on the front "platform disap
peared before he could be captured. It is
not known whether the man thrown off was
hurt or not. There wasa large sum of money
on the train.
MRS. BLAINE ON THE STAGE.
She
Will Star Under tho Management of
Dnnlel Frohman.
rSFECIAT. TELEOnAM TO THE DISFATCH.1
New York, January 23. It was reported
in theatrical circles this evening that Sirs.
James G. Blaine, Jr., had signed a two
years' contract to star under the manage
ment of Daniel Frohman. The report
stated that the actress was to
receive a fixed salary, and in addition
was to receive a fair percentage of the re
ceipts and be supplied with a wardrobe, a
maid and traveling companion at her man
ager's expense. Mr. Frohman, when found
at the Lyceum, said:
"The report is somewhat premature.
Negotiations are now pending and the con
tract will no doubt be signed this week.
The compensation and terms of the contract
will be the same as reported. If the contract is
signed Mrs. Blaine will continue her studies
during this year and will make her debut
on the stage with the opening of next
season. She will star in such pieces as
she herself may select. This is all of my
plan which has as yet been formulated, and
of course nothing more can be decided on
until the contract has been signed."

Newt Yobk, January 23. William Sil
ler, who takes care ot the horses belonging
to the Astoria Silk Mills; Long Island City,
until recently was coachman for tbe Super
intendent of the mills, Paul Van Den Esch,
of 438 Ditmars avenue. Miss Mary Van
Den Esch, the Superintendent's 20-year-old
daughter, is a comely brunette below the
medium height. Siller fell in love with
her, and his handsome face won her heart.
The suspicions of the Superintendent and
his wife were at last aroused, and Siller was
relieved of his duties as coachman. He was
still retained at the silk mill, and he con
trived to find excuses for visiting the
cottage.
Last Saturday evening Mary informed her
mother that she was going to call on a
friend and would not be borne until late.
She took a horse car to the Thirtv-fourth
street ferry, where Siller met her. They
went to New York together and were mar
ried. Coming back the father met them
and was induced to relent, with the proviso
that they must hear what Mrs. Van Den
Esch would say.
Mary led her husband into the dimly
lighted parlor, and then her father brought
her mother in and explained the situation
to her. Although she was about as much
surprised as her husband, it didn't take her
long to make up her mind. She didn't
deign to notice Siller, but was very angry
at Mary. She opened the parlor and the
street doors and ordered the couple out of
the house. Tears and prayers failed to move
her. The young couple left tbe house,
Mary weemng. Siller defiant- He took his
bride to his furnished room where they are
at present living. Siller has been promoted
by his father-in-law.

Chattanooga, Tests., Jannary 23.
This morning a terrific explosion occurred
at the residence of G. E. Broyles, on Mont
gomery avenue, which resulted in tearing
down the walls of the kitchen, the blowing
out of two windows and serious injuries to a
servant girl named Lydia Hunt. A
rat had appeared in the kitchen, which
Miss Hunt tried to kill. It es
caped into a box, which proved to have
a lot of gunpowder in it, but the girl was
no aware of that fact. In order to get the
rat out of the, box she lighted a taper and
put it into the box, which caused the pow
der to explode with terrific force. The girl
was blown a distance of at least 20 feet and
her clothing set on fire, bnt the flames were
extinguished before she was fatally burned.
Several members of the family made nar
row escapes.
A NOVEL BDKIAL SOCIETI.
The Organization Formed by a Chicago
Priest la His Parish.
Chicago, January 23. Rev. Father
Dorney, pastor of St. Gabriel's Roman
Catholic Church, near the Union Stock
yards, is organizing a novel association
among his parishioners. It is a burial so
ciety. The plan is for each family in the
parish to pay a small sum monthly, and
when a death occurs in the family of any
member of the association the funeral ex
penses will be paid from this fund.
"It is our first move in this direction,"
said Father Dorney to-day, "and I am sure
it will be a success. The poor people
among us find it hard to give their dead a
respectable burial. Many of them pay a
certain sum monthly to undertakers in
whose debt they have been placed by death.
I think this organization will remedy in a
great degree this hardship. I do not want
to see any of my parishioners buried at the
expense of the town."

THE WOMAN SUFFEAGE COUNCIL.
It Closes Its Labors After Listening to a.
Number of Speeches.
Washington', January 23. In the con-i
vention of the Woman Suffragists this morn-!
ing a paper on the law of federal suffrage;
was read by Mrs. Virginia Minor, of Mis--souri,
who several years ago was denied tha
right to vote by the Supreme Court. Miss'
Mary Clay, of -Kentucky, said that the con-,-dition
of women was no better than slavery.'.
An equality of right in the married rela
tion, she thought, would do much good.
Fred Douglass, in response to numerous;
calls, came upon the platform and saia that
he was convinced of the justness, wisdom
and expediency of conferring suffrage upon
women. He remembered with gratitude
that womeA were largely instrumental in
bringing about the freedom of his own
race.
At the evening session Mrs. Rebecca,
Wright Bonsai, Tirho was introduced as the
woman who sent Sheridan the information
on which the battle of Winchester was
fought and won, gave a graphic description
of now she communicated with General
Sheridan. Mrs. Helen IT. Gougar, of In
diana, made a speech in which she arraigned
public men of both political parties, but as
she made no reference to woman suffrage
Miss Anthony finally interrupted her. Mrs.
Flora S. Colby, of Nebraska, read a paper
upon "Woman in Marriage," and the con
vention adjourned sine die.
