    TWO FAMOUS FIGHTS
To bo Kecallcd To-Day by tho Loyal
OraDRcmon of tho Pillsuurg and

A COUPLE OP HISTORICAL EVENTS
That Live Erer Green in the Memories of
Korth of Ireland People, Though
Kot Now Celebrated
WITH TUB GOCB OF FOEJIEK TEAU8.
ComtlUa; r the Occasion Which ti ti b Ccmmems.
rated In a Flttltj- Way To-Diy.
To-day, the two hundredth anniversary oi
tbe Battle of Aughrim, the Loral Orange
znenof Keystone District No. G, composed
of lodges in Western Pennsylvania and
Eastern Ohio, Mill celebrate that decisive
victory, co-rclatively with that of the Battle
ot the Eoyno, where King "William of
Orange overthrew his father-in-law, James
II., and caused the Protestant settlers in the
North of Ireland to rejoice over a restoration
of their privileges and lands.
The details of to-day's proceedings have
clready appeared in The Dispatch. "With
n favorable day the turnout to Hulton
Grove will likely be large, and the com
memoration of the anniversary suitably
maintained. Among those who have prom
ised to attend are the. Revs. W. Thompson,
Mr. McCormick, 3Ir. Turner, -Mr. King
and -John Thresher, all of Pittsburg or Alle
gheny. "To tbc glorious, pious and immortal
memory of the creat and good King Will
iam, who saved us from Popery, slavery,
knavery, brass money and wooden shoes,"
'with variegated extensions, prompted by the
taste of the proposer, was the toast with
which the Ulster Orangemen customarily
emphasized their banquets alter the hazard
ous experiences of the 12th of July in the
good old times not many years ago.
AS IT ONCE WAS.
In the good old times necessarily good,
because old, though they may have been
notoriously bad the "glorious 12th" was
observed in the North of Ireland after a
fashion calculated to keep its celebration in
the memory of the participants tor many
a day to come. It was, literally,
a red letter day; and that
beads were broken, men, women and chil
dren shot down, and policemen killed was
as certain to be a result of the "celebration"
as that the day itself should dawn. The
people in the North of Ireland needed no
calendar to indicate that the fete day of
Orangeism was drawing near. The authori
ties, mindful of their dutv to the people at
large, Eome three or Jour days' previously,
drafted details of constabulary from all sec
tions of the country into Belfast. Enniskil--len,
Derry, Dungannon and other riotous
towns, and held them in readiness to sup
press the hostilities which were certain to
break out between the Catholics and Orange
men, when the latter set forth iu parade.
Belfast, the principal city in the North,
from its larger population, was the scene of
the most deadly und continued disturbances.
The city has still its well-defined Protestant
and Catholic quarters, and through the lat
ter the Orangemen were invariably prohib
ited from parading. But the prohlbl-
tlon usually went for naught. Each
delegation trom the neighboring towns, os
u arrivra aj roan or ran, rnnntng ttie
gantlet on its way, of stones and missies
from the opposition, advertised its advent
by makiric a tour of the town, with drums
beating, banners flying, and scarfs waving.
Every man in the ranks was out to assert
the principles ol Orangeism agaiust the doc
trines of Jacobltlstu, and it became a point
of honor to beat tho drams tbo louder and
shoot off ro vol vers tho more froquontly as
they entered or pitied by the Catholle quar
ter. Showers or stones from tho latter would
fall Into their midst but the maroh would
bo continued, 'nathless such repeated
greetings, until tho trystlng plnce was
reached. As the hour for the parade ap
Croachcd the authorities would begin to
estlr themselves. Details of police would
be drawn across the streets leading to the
Cathollo quarters, and bevond these neither
Oraucemen were supposed to enter or Cath
olics to pass. Then after some inspiring ora
tory irom a local magnate tne parado would
oegin.
ALL IN YICLLOW.
Every man wore a yellow scarf olid orange
iiiim, ana witn uauuers Dcnrlng such
legends as "Derry, Aughnm and the
Boync." ".No Surrender" and other devices.
and marching n the tuno of "Croppies Lie
uown or me "jioync aicr. tne proces
sion issued forth, and the tun began. For
fun It was, though of a rather serious
nature, to the hot-beaded and battle-seeking
North of Ireland men. Here was presented
the curious spectacle of men of the samo
race, oltentinics of the same family, working
aud living side bv side in perfect amity and
fellowship for Mi days in the year, throw
ing tuide all ties, and sinking every private
feeling to do battle against one another in
support of a politico-religious sentiment, nil
reason for the existence of which had long
sjnee been lost iu time. But the traditions
remained; on one side the victories
of Derry, Aughrim and the Borne and
the dclcat ol the Jacobites, and on the other
the memory of the penal laws and the ag
gressions of the Protestant ascendency, and
only half a protest was needed on either
side for as excuse to fight these memorable
battles over again. Aud so they were, in a
sense. As tbo Orangemen drew near their
quarters the Catholics, or Jacobites, re
turned .their gibes and jeers with Interest,
emphasizing their remarks by volleys ol
stones and an occasional crack from a pis
tol. Cries from the paraders of "No sur
render," "Croppies lie. down," and "To
h 1 with the Pope," as a. taunt to the
Jacobites imprisoned behind the cordons of
constabulary, only intensified the feeling on
both sides. Alter a few more passages a
rush would be made by the Jacobites, and
in a moment a scrimmage of the liveliest
kind would be in lull swing.
The police would use the butt end of
their rifles without mercy; revolvers
hitherto fired in the air would
be brought down to deadly execution;
women and children would join in the com
bat with stones and bats; the stout black
thorn would play to a lively tune over beads
of friend and foe, and by the time the
Mayor, backed up by a platoon ol police,
would arrive and read the riot act the boys
would be just about in the humor for a "bit
of fun." Sometimes hostilities were car
ried to such an extent that the police would
bo ordered to fire, with a deplorable result,
frequently inoffensive women and children
being killed. Tnen the paraders, rather en
livened than otherwise by such little epi
sodes, would continued on their way, and
finally bring up at a rondezous to listen to
more oratory.
CLOSED BY A BANQUET.
The day's proceedings were brought to a
close by a banquet, und the ontl-Catholie
feeling was scarcely alloyed by the extrava
gant sentiments given utterance to by
the
speaicers. yimong these, ministers
oi vuo kuijwi were as conspicuous
as the representatives of the ruling classes,
and went on record at times in sentiments
lchJVtf?ly cco,r'101 with their cloth.
King William would be toasted in the man
ner or wards which open this article, with
the addendum, frequently, of "a fig for the
Bishop of Cork," In allusion to Dr. Peter
Browne, who, about the year 1715. wrote in
a very strong tunnner against toasting tho
dead, as Uciug nearly as bud ui praying for
tbtm. The allusion in tin tosst to brat
nontr had reference to James II. unanetf,
nd the wooden shoes, to Ills French hIIIm.
JXbt old sorei between the factions onee
reopened, wcio not again readily allowed to
close, and very often'hostlllllcs wcro main
tained, despite the cflorts of tho police, lor
days at a time. But within the past threo
or four years, partly owing to tbo excited
condition of the country on the land ques
tiona niattor ou which.frlcnd and foo find
common interest, and partly due to tbo
growth of a more tolerant spirit in both
factions, the disturbauccsjhavo bceu less fre
quent, and the celebration ol the respective
tot days, namely tho 12th of July and tho
17th of March, given less promincmco than
formerly.
Tho cry of "No Surrendor" originated at
the famous siege ol Derry, and was tho
watchword of the Apprentice Boys, who
afterward became merged In tho Orange
body. Every student knows that this mem
orablo siege fatted 105 days, despite all tho
attempts of tho Jacobites with James in
person at tbclr head to Indueo tho gallant
defenders to yield. They sent up tho cry of
"No Burrcndor;" and neither did they, for
when reduced to the "last ounco of horse
flesh and last pinch of corn" succor reached
them through Klrd when he rode into tho
harbor with three shiploads of provisions,
aud the MutoovIteDe'llosen, who was in com
mand of the King's troops, raised theiiegcin
disgust.
riBST OF THE LOUOES.
The first Orango lodgo was founded in
Armagh about 1793, but tho name existed
for many years before. Tho Protestant set
tlers in the North ol Ireland looked to Will
iam of Orauge to restore tbem lands and
privileges which they had lost under James
II., and the organization effected shortly
after the defeat of the latter was called by
its name in honor of tbo conqueror. The
original object of Orangeism wai the main
tenance ot Protestant ascendancy, but it
subsequently became a political body. As
a result of a Parliamentary inquiry Orange
clubs were broken up about 1830, but were
renewed in 1845.
The Battle of tho Boyne was fought on
the 1st of Julv, 1C90. Tn the previous month
William of Orange landed in Ireland with
35,000 well trained solJiers. James' troops
were raw levies, insufficiently armed, and
as a result they could not stand against the
seasoned soldiers whom they met at Donore,
on the Boync, and were soon put to flight.
James himsell fled from the field before de
feat was assured and made a rapid flight to
Dublin. He was in one of his violent pas
sions when the historical passage of arms
between him and Lady TyrcohneJ occurred.
"Madam," said the King, "your country
men have run away." "If they have, sire,"
was her Ladyship's quick retort, "your
Majesty seems to have won."
Following up his victory of the Boyne,
William marched on Aughrim, and on the
12th of July again defeated the Jacobites
with mnch slaughter, though ably led by
the gallant Sarsfield, who afterward made
as stout resistance at Limerick as his oppo
nents had at Derry.
TWO CELEBKATIOKS.
Iwenty-one lodges, comprising fully 6,000
persons, will journey on to Hulton Grove,
the three Southside lodges, owing to some
dissatisfaction within the order, having
concluded to spend the day at Alliquippa.
About 1,500 people will probably spend the
dav there. A novel feature of the parade
will be the participation therein of the four
ladies' lodges, with a membership of250.
It is not thought that more than 1,200 per
sons will attend.the parade.
Among those who will speak at Hulton
are the Rev. Mr. McCormick, of the Central
Presbyterian Church, Allegheny; the Rev.
J. B, Koehne, of the Cumberland Presby
terian Church, this city; the Rev. Will
iam Thompson, of St. James Church, this
city, and Mr. John Thresher. Messrs. Mil
lig'en and Graham, of the Supreme Grand
Lodge; Robert P. Newman, o! Toronto,
Grand Master of the Canadian lodges, and
W. H. Travnor, of Detroit, editor of the
American Patriot, have been invited to at
tend. PHILADELPHIA'S BIO GUNS.
Ttvolvo Drlsbt New Caunon nod Carriage
Unloaded at Cramp, k
PiiiLASELruiA, July 11. A freight
train laden with ono massive gun and 12
gnu carriages for the cruiser Philadelphia
rolled along Beach street to Cramps' ship
yard yesterday. Abont nn hour later a largo
steamer, tho Rancoeas, steamed up the Dela
waro and was moored off ono of the wharves
near the new orulscr. On her deek wcro 11
now guns that glistened under tho noon sun,
A crowd gatherod about on Beach street to
seo tho powerful Implomonts of war, and
clambered on tho ears.
The big guns and tholr gigantic carriages
are sights that Phlladelphiani do not get to
see very often. They are wonders in tho
naval world and aro expected to do remark
able things. Tho guns and carriages were
finished at the Norlolk yards, from which
place the Rancoeas and tho freight cars
brought them here. All the guns aro nf
six-Inch bore and rifled. Eaoh weighs 5,000
pounds and Is -18 feet long. The gun car
riages are made almost entirely of iron, and
weigh over a ton apiece. They are about 5
feet high and 0 feet long.
Everything is being placed In readiness
on board the cruiser Philadelphia for tho re
ception of the engines of war. Gangs of
men are hard at work on the railways on
which tho gun carriage will "travel." It
is expected that two of the guns will bo
mouuted soon. In other particulars the
Philadelphia is being touched up so as to
put her to sea as soon as possible.

fll'SOUL TELVOnXM TO TUB DIBTATCIM
New Yoiirc, July 11. Special telegrams
to JJradttrcet't indlcato that tho goncral
trade throughout the oountry has still fur
ther felt the restraining Influcnco of the mid
summer season. Tho severity of hot weather
in Missouri and Nebraska has resulted in a
drouth. Early showers, it is thought, may
recover some of the loss to crops in Ne
braska. Ono effect of the extreme heat West
has been an advanco In prices of canned
goods.
The New York slock market is dull and
tends to rise on tbo silver bill and the pros
pective settlement of Western railroad dif
ficulties, though gold shipments and foreign
selling consequent on the South American
panic exert sonio disturbing Influence.
Bauk clearings at CI cities for the week
ending July 10 ore 5017,530,716, a decrease
from this week last year of 10 per cent.
New York City's clearings, which consti
tutes 35.6 per cent of the grand total, are
less than those for the like period last year
by over 28 per cent, while at 30 other cities
the loss is 3.3 per cent.
IKON AND STEEL MARKETS QUIET.
There is no improvement in iron or steel
prices or demand, contrary to expectations
and predictions. At some points, notably
West, prices of iron tend lower. Anthra
cite coal is firm and in fair demand. Pro
duction is heavy and exceeds the total for
the first half of '89. The outlook is for a
further advance in price. Copper is firm at
17c for lake, from first hands; elsewhere,
16iWJe. Casting brands are 14c.
Gross railway earnings of 134 companies
for June show total aggregate receipts cf
S32.502,761,"an increase over June last year
of 8.65 per cent. The month of May, it will
be remembered, showed a gain over May,
1889, of nearly 14 per cent Rate cntting,
water competition and reduced volume of
business oflering have reduced June earn
ings. For the six months 133 roads report
earnings of 5205,419,831, a gain over last
year or 11.8 per cent on a milage increase of
2.6 per cent.
Heavy receipts of hogs at Western pack
ing centers broke the back of the little boom
in lard started early in the week, and prices
close about where they did a week ago.
Hogs are 5 cents cbeaper. Mess pork is
steady at former quotations.
IMPKOVED CONDITION OP WHEAI.
Wheat has been stronger on a fair demand,
decreasing stocks, a small crop outlook at
home and reports of damage to wheat in
Europe. Prices are lo higher on the
week. European available stocks of wheat,
stocks afloat lor Europe and supplies avail
able in the United States, both coasts, ae
gregated 69.000,000 bnshels July 1, 1890,
against 66,000,000 bushels one year before.
On January 1, 1890, tho foregoing
stocks amounted to 115,000,000 bush
els, as enrnptred with 130,000,000 bushels
on Jan. 1, 1889. During June, 1890, Euro
pean, afloat and American wheat stocks de
creased fully 15.000.000 bushels, two-thirds
of which decline wus abroad. Exports of
wheat and flour ns wheat, both coasts, this
week caual 1.738.302 bushels, ncainit 1.215.-
428 bnshels last week and as compared with
1,558,053 bushels in the week t'dlug July
12, 1889. Indian corn exports, both coasts,
equal 1,792,864 bushels this week, against
1,520,592 bushels last week.
ACTIVITY IN DItYOOODS.
The July drygoods trado opened quietly,
but has improved this week both with
agents and Jobbers, owing to snlarged de
mand for fall dress goods at first and soeoud
hands. The lata hot wavo quiokoned tho re
nssortlng deniund for wash dress fabrics
from jobbers. Woo dress goods are in fairly
active demnnd, except lor oloaklugs, which
aro cheeked by tho clonkraakers' strike.
Mon's wear goods nre only moderately ac
tive. Prices aro generally steady and un
changed. Print oloth stocks aro accumulat
ing on slight demand. Raw wool Is very dull
on reduced demand from manufacturers and
proposed tariff changes. Cottuu was de
pressed, but closed steady aud but little be
low last week, uncertainty about August de
livery nearly offsetting early unfavorable
Liverpool cables. New orop is slightly
wcakor on good orop advices.
Business luilures reported to Oradttreet'i
number 131 in the United States this week:
against 102 last week aud 218 this week last
vear. Canada had 32 this week agulnst 13
Inst week. The total number of failures In
tbo United States January 1 to date is 5,702
against 0,255 in a like portion of 1889.
HICAVV SHIPMENTS OP GOLD.
R. G. Dun & Co.'s review of the trade for
the week savs that the Bank of England
lost 52,160,000 gold last week, tho Bank of
Germany 52,490,000. and the Bankol' France
51,245,000, in all 55,895,000 in a week, and
it has been decided to call over 55,000,000
gold from this oountry, the first shipments
being to-day. With scanty reserves here
on which to begin the fall movement, and
money tight at Boston and active at Phila
delphia and in shares demand in Chicago at
G per cent on call, the prospect is less clear
than it haB been, though rates here are com
paratively steady. ,
From manv Northwestern cities special
reports show distinct improvement in trade
because of crop prospects, which St. Paul
calls the best for years. Yet prices of wheat
have advanced ljc on sales of 15,000,000
bushels, corn i;c on sales of 17,000,000
bushels and oats o, while cotton is un
changed, with moderate dealings. Hogs
and latd are'higher, with potatoes and eggs,
but oil is 2o lower, and the absence of buy
ers causes disappointment in coffee, though
prices are held. Slow consumption of sugar
is also noticed. But the general average of
prices has advanced fully 1 per cent,
IROW EESIAINS WEAK.
In the iron business the buoyancy antici
pated at "Philadelphia does not appear there,
and here pressure to realize keeps the mar
ket weak. Pittsburg notes no loss in price,
but slower movement. Coal is dull and
weak, the recent advance being principally
on paper, and the half year's output being
within 1,000 tons of the output last year.
Copper, tin and lead continue strong.
Midsummer dullness prevails at Boston
increased by monetary stringency, and at
Philadelphia and Pittsburg by the tact that
higher wages have been conceded to iron
workers, though higher prices for products
do not seem obtainable. Chicago reports a
larger movement than last year's in all'
grains and meats, in wool and in drygoods,
with easy and prompt collections, a verv
good trade in clothing, and better than las't
year in boots and shoes.
DULLNESS PBEVAILS IS TIIE VEST.
St. Louis finds trade above the average,
extreme hot weather having passed, but nt
Kansas City trade is light and collections
nre poor because of drought Milwaukee
has u heavy local trade, Omaha a large
trade and bright prospects, and Minneapolis
a stronger market for flour, while tho lum
ber convention has advanced prices of low
grade lumber 51 per 1,000. At Detroit
travelers report good fall orders, and at'
Oloveland all trades aro better than a year
ago. Tho glass works ore closed at Pitts
burg, but stocks aro moving fairly, aud a
scarcity of miners is felt in tho business
there.
U Tic coal truffle of rondi is very largo for

Mlsslonttrr Elder Brlua Six Seoro Convert
an tho Wisconsin.
New Tome, July 11. The steamship
Wisconsin of the Galon Line, whloh reaohod
this port yesterday brought 120 Mormon
proselytes from Great Britain. Tho mission
ary olders of tho Salt Lako City Tabornaclo
havo been hard at work in the thiokly popu
lated manufacturing districts of England
during the past year, but their labors have
not resulted in a very largo numbor of con
verts to Latter Day Salntshlp. Tho con
signment of converts which passed through
tho Bargo offlco yesterday was chiefly com
posed of Englishmen und woraou of the
poorest and most Ignorant class. Two or
three of the Burge offlco attaches gathered
around a hopelul father with a wife and two
daughters and tried to persuado him that he
was doing a foolish thing in boliovlng tho
fairy tales told him by tho elder. The man.
listened good-naturedly to these warnings,
but seemed to have implicit faith in Mor
mon doctrines. His elder daughter over
heard some of the stories told to bar father
by the inspectors and was so effeoted by
them that she tearfully declared that sho
did not want to go to Salt Lake City. SUe
went, nevertheless, half an hour later.
Another of tho converts was a bright
faced, wholesome looking young woman
from the North of Ireland. She said that
she was 22 vears old and had mot the elders
in Birmingham. Missionary Lawrence
spoko to her in the Bargo office and at
tempted to persuado her that sho would be
better offin New York, or back in Binning;
ham, than among the Mormons in Salt Lake
Citv. Although every one of tho proselytes
was registered as from England, a number
of them were Scandinavians, who cannot
have remained in England very long,
for their knowledge of the lan
guage i confined to a few stock
phrases. Everybody in the whole motley
crowd firmly believed that he or she was
bound for a veritable Eden. The mission
ary ciders are not overscrupulous m aaucr
ing strictly to the truth when they under
take to describe Salt Lake City aud its en
virons, il the fabulous tales retailed at sec
ond hand bv the converts for the benefit of
the Barge office employes are to be taken as
a criterion. An hour after Ver nad b6
ushered into the United States according to
law the immigrants were packed aboard
rolling stock which would shock the sus
ceptibilities of selt-respecting cattle, and
started on their long ride across the Conti
nent It is expected that another install
ment of proselytes will reach here within a
month,
A WHITE UOlf.
Nature' Strange Freak Reported From the
Itoblnaou Circus.
Cincinnati, July 11. A remarkable
freak of nature is reported from the Robin
son circus, which is at present out West.
On Tuesday last the big lioness "Nellie"
threw a litter of cubs, and among them was
one as white as snow. The town of Missoula,
Mont., where the cnbs first saw the light of
day, was considerably excited over the curi
osity, and flocked to the tent by hundreds to
tee the Albino.
The oldest inhabitant bad never Been the
like before, and it is doubtful if suoh a
thing a a white lion had ever before been
beard of. Albino men, women and birds
ore very common, and there is a page In'his
tory devoted to a description of a white ele
phant and the reverence shown it by tho
natives, but there is no record of a white
lion ever having been whelped.
The Robinson boys are vcrwruuoh coated
over tho freak, and every possible effort will
be made to raise the cub. In ease It lives,
it will prove one of the greatest attractions
of the show.
ALASKAN MISSIONARIES.
lDtolllaODCO From Moravian Woricar la
lb Fur-Away Territory.
Bethlehem, Pa., July 11. Lettors
havo botn received in Bethlehem from the
Moravian mission stations at Bethel and
Oarmel, In Alaska. They contained briefly
the news that Rev. John il. Kllbuek, mis
sionary in ohargo at Bethel, and Mrs.Blshop
Dachman and son, and nil tho rest of the
llttlo band of workers excopt Mrs. Kllbuek
were In good health. It is probable that
Mrs. Kllbuek will roturn to tho State with
Mrs. Bacbman this summer to reouperato
her health.
Letters dated Oarmel. June 5, were also
received, stating that Missionary Wolf and
family and tho assistant missionaries were
well. Missionaries Kllbuek and Wolf have
been appointed census enumerators for
