London, June 25. The great sensation of the day has been the wedding of Mr. Par nell and Mrs. O'Shea. Mr. Parnell took the most extraordinary precautions to conceal as long as possible the fact of the marriage. He bribed or cajoled all the officials at Steyning who were likely to be interrogated on the subject, so that it was impossible to obtain by telegraph from the registrars, the postmaster, the stationmaster or the clerks anything but denials or evasive answers. The scores of messages which poured in upon these officials remained unnoticed, or were responded to unsatisfactorily. Mr. Pamell took special pains to prevent either one of the large news agencies from obtain ing any information. He notified their lobbymen to meet him at 4 o'clock this after no...', when he would giy there some im portant information. Very Difficult to Secure Information. One of the associations 'did not find out the trick until too late to send a man to Steyning. The correspondent of The Dispatch went down on an afternoon train, and with the greatest difficulty learned the details of the wedding. The Chief Eegistrar, Mr. Cripps, refused to al low the Uegister to be seen until lie was threatened with legal proceeding's, the law requiring the book to be kept open to the public. The record showed that the marriage had taken place under a special license empow ering the union within three months from the issuance thereof of Charles Stewart Parnell, Bachelor, M. P., aged 44, of Avon dale, Ireland, now in England, and Kath arine O'Shea, formerly "Wood, the divorced wife of William Henry O'Shea, of lull age, residence Walsingham Terrace, Aldington. It was learned that Sirs. O'Shea had ear nestly desired a religious ceremony, but the conscientious scruples of the Church of Eng landclergymeu against marrying a divorce, and Mr. Parnell's strong antipathy for dis senting parsons, conspired to render a civil marriage necessary. A Religious Ceremony Preferred. All Catholics and many Protestants con sider such a marriage without religious sanc tion, and therefore void, and this fact is sure to harm Mr. Parnell among his Irish con stituencies and in the estimation of the Eng lish masses. Kev. Dr. Pridgeon, the Steyn ing curate, was at first inclined to perform 4he ceremony, but backed out at the last mo ment. This doubtless accounts for the se lection of Stejning as the place for the ceremony. The parson knew of the marriage, bnt re plied to telegrams of inquiry that the report of the affair having occurred as untrue. Registrar Cripp lied witli equal audacity.

Mr. Parnell went to Brighton on leaving the liouf-e yesterday and dined with Mrs. O'Sliea, whose residence is next door to his ow n. The couple spent the evening listen ing to music and chatting together. The watchers noticed that tho lights were ont earlier than usual and they did not see Mr. Parnell leave the houso until 6 o'clock in the morning. The Ceremony Before Breakfast. Ho then took a short walk, omitting his nsual ride. The departure-was before break fast. Mr. Parnell -wore a flower In his coat, and was clad in a suit of unusual elegance for him. Mrs. O'Shea seemed in high spirits, and hummed a lively tune as she was es corted to the phaeton and gallantly assisted to enter by Mr. Parnell. She ore a black The Bride. silk and brocade sown, with a black lace mantle and a black hat adorned with pink rosea. The morning was a gloomy one, and it soon began to rain in torrents. The carriage hood was drawn forward and the occupants made themselves as little uncomfortable at possible under the rathordoprcsslng circum stances. A zig zag route was taken, in the hope of throwing followers off the scent, and the traversing of byways made the journey twice It ordinary length. Mrs. O'Shea was handling the reins when the phaeton arrived at Stcyning. The offi cial hours of the Registrar are 10 a. m. to 4 r. x., bnt the couple were readily admitted at 9jlm. Tiro servants from the Brighton il 9W The Groom. establishment arrived half an hour later, keeping the couple waiting, and during this period they betrayed considerable nervous ness. The principals, the servants, as witnesses, and the two Registrars com pleted the audience. The formalities, or ceremony, occupied 40 minutes. A Clergyman to Officiate Later. Mr. Parnell remarked to Registrar Cripps that he Intended to have a religious cere mony performed later, in London, as soon as a minister agreeable thereto was found. The newly-married pair returned to Brighton at their leisure, and at 10 o'clock this even ing your correspondent, on calling for the purpose of obtaining some information, found; them snuglv ensconced in Mrs. O'Shea's domicile, with every evidence that the beginning of their domestic-life was not to bo postponed until the blessing of the Church had been pronounced upon the union. A press dispatch says: "With reference to certain testimony in the libel suit brought by Henrv Campbell, M. P., and Parnell's ?irivate secretary, against the proprietors of he Cork Herald. Air. Parnell writes to the newspapers as follows: "As to the denial of Campbell that he had given any one the right to use his name I recall the fact that he did give me such authority five years ago, for the purpose of renting a house at East bourne. Mrs. O'Shea conducted the corre spondence at my request. My object in con cealing her identity was through fear of fail ure in securing a house or being made a victim of extortion." The defendants in the case of Campbell against the Cork Herald, applied to-day for a stay of elocution to enable them to apply for a new trial based upon Mr. Parnell's let ter announcing that Mrs. O'Shea had Mr. Campbell's authority to use his signature. The Judge granted the stay until Saturday, but ho declined to express an opinion whether the letter would Justify a special re-trial. THE POPE AND THE CARDINAL.

Juno 25. Reports have again been circulated regarding the Pope's attitude toward Cardinal Manning in respect to tho labor questions which have occupied public attention so much lately. It has been as sorted that tho Pope, disapproving of the advanced ideas of Cardinal Manning, has tentcliim Instructions intimating to him that, in the Pope's opinion, he was going too far in his treatment of social questions. It is authoritatively learned that these reports are entirely without foundation. On the contrary, a very intimate correspon dence has parsed between the Pope and Cardinal Manning onlyjnst lately on the oc casion of the publication of the social ency clical. On the 10th of June the Pope re ceived a detailed report from His Eminence of tho impression produced by the encvcll cal in England. In his report the Cardinal declares that the Pontifical document has not met with the slightest opposition, neither in tho h.gher nor in the low erspheres of life; that it ha;iiada sympathetic roceptionin the English press; that tne plutocracy itself has not taken often e,and that the National prej udice against Rome has become considera bly modified in the face of this enlightened and pacific declaration. "My expectations," wrote Cardinal Manning, "have been sur passed " Efforts have been made to Indnco Cardinal Simeonito retire from his office of Prefeot of the Propaganda, but he has refused to do so. No change, therefore, is probable for some time at any rate. Arrangements are being completed for the publication of a new weekly theological re view. It will be conducted by Rev. Mr. Fasanante, who will be assisted by both American and Roman prelates. The review will be printod in English, and will make a special feature of American ecclesiastical questions..

A GBEAT PABIS T00D 6TSIBE. Bakers, Butchers and Grocers Threaten to Starve the City. Paws, June 25. As if It was not putting the public to a sufficient degree of pros pective annoyanoe to have the bakers of this city striking and rioting, the butchers of Paris have just announced that they, also, have determined to strike for the settle ment of several real or fancied wrongs. And now in comes the decidedly startling piece of news that the grocers have joined the bakers and the butchers in the strike movement. The situation of affairs is'pecu liarly interesting and alarming. Thus far thewhole affair is lautrbedat, and Is regarded as a hugejoke, but "there is no disguising the fact that a wholesale and pro longed strike of the bakers, butchers and grocers of this city, or of any other city, would cause considerable inconvenience, to say tne least. That there is a serious side to the strike maybe set down as a fact, for this afternoon a meeting of the Ministers was held at the Klysce Palace, and the whole question of the present labor disturbance was fully discussed. The result was that it was decided that on the event of the strike extending, other suppliers of food must tako measures to provide Paris, at least, with tho quantity of bread required. ENGLI8H LITEBATECBS Are Impatient at the President's Delay., of the Copyright. Proclamation. LoitDoir, Juno 85. Among literary workers considerable solicitude is expressed at President Harrison's delay In making his proclamation that England is entitled to the benefits of the new American copyright law. The feeling here is that the present British copyright law affords such protection to American authors so clearly as to justify immediate action on the part of the Presi dent. Prof. Bryce has procured from the law officers of the Crown an opinion, to the effect that the British law, as It now stands, is quite sufficient to afford ample protection to American citizens who pnbfish their works simultaneously in the United States and the British Empire.

In response to the .request of the grand jury made on Wednes day t Judge Wilson for information regaru ing the new liquor law, the Judge to-day gave the following decision: "Gentlexes Your inquiry, communi cated to the District Attorney, in regard to the operation of the bill whioh is commonly called the wholesale license bill, has been considered by me, and I will give you in, brief all that I consider necessary to say to. you on the subject. As Isold when the Jn quiry was presented, it is one which is very proper for you to make, and one which is for the interest of all who are engaged in tho business in soiling at wholesale and who i receive licenses under the wholesale law They should know the effect of it and the . onpmtlnn nf it T talrA It for eranted that the greater proportion of those who received 'licenses desire to know what the law is, and to abide by its provisions. I have no ques-1 uun at an in my own minu, uuu a. Byvn- en tirely for myself. Becently Paid Fees Unaffected. "I have no doubt that the law passed by- ' the recent Legislature and approved by the Governor referred to and applies, so far as the regulations contained in it are con cerned, to those who have recently obtained their licenses. So far, of course, as the amount of the fee to bo paid is concerned, that was all settled and determined when the fee was paid. That was under the law that existed at that time, and it Is not in the slightest degree affected by tho law as it now stands. "But so far nsj any regulations of the method of conducting thebuslness are con cerned so far as such regulations are con tained in the present law they apply-'to those persons who received their licenses, though under different regulations. Those are in tho nature of police regulations, and the licenses were obtained subject to them, and a man who has a license to sell is bound by the law as it now stands and not by the law as it existed nrevious to tho nassaeo and approval of the present law. Those regulations determine the manner in which spirituous and brewed liquors can be de livered. The Lettering of the Wagons. "Tho law states that the wagons used for the purpose of delivering any spirituous, malt or brewed liquors or any admixture thereof shall have marked on the sides thereof the name of tho licensee and the number of his license in letters and figures of not less than four inches in length. That means that tho wagons must show by what is put upon them the names and figures intended to represent that a license was issued to parties to make such sale and delivery. . "The law also provides that it shall not be lawful for any rectifier, compounder, distil ler or manufacturer to sell spirituous liquor in less quantities than one gallon, nor any wholesale dealer or storekeeper to sell any spirituous or vinous liquors in less quanta ties than one quart, and browed or malt liquors in less quantities than 12 pint bottles; nor shall any brewer or bottler sell less than, 12 pint bottles of brewed or malt liquors. He or she or thoy shall not allow any liquor sold by him, her or them to be drunk upon the premises where sold; nor any place pro vided by such seller for that purpose. ' All Doubt Claarly Removed. "If there was any doubt before as to the right of a person holding a wholesale license to sell liquor to be drunk on tha "premises, hntjdonbt is removed by tho-express pK ' visions' of'the act. I" have gono somewhat into the details of the provisions of the act regulating the manner of sale, not so much because such details were elicited by the inquiry, but because I believed that it is onlyjnstfor those whoare in the business to be made familiar with the terms of the act, so that they may not make any mistake or run any tinnocessary risk in the conduct of their business, Whereby tlioy migni prooauiy, wimouc any evil intent, subject themselves to the penalties of the law. "The terms of the law containing those regulations are clear, and they do not leave, in my judgment, any room for serious ques tion as to what the provisions, as stated in that language, mean." ,"i HIS DIPLOMA GAE5ISHEED.

Mrs. Bostion was rather surprised that tho honey moon wax to be snent in tho rather unnru- tentious St. Clairhotol in Brooklyn, instead of in one or tho big hotels in this city, the gor geousness of which her husband had pictured to heron their way hither. Matters drifted along rather cheerlessly for the bride until Sunday last, when sho perceived that she had been duped. Tuesday Mr. Bostion dis appeared. A SAEAT0GA ELOPEMENT.

TRADE OF THE LAKES To Be Soon Inquired Into by a Float ing Committee of Congress. THE PENNSYLVANIA SHIP CANAL Is Suggested as a Good Thing for the Com mittee to look Into. A "VERY ELABORATE TRIP MAPPED OUT SPECIAL TILEGEAM TO THE DISPATCH!. WASHixaTOjr, June 25-On July 10 a party 'composed of Senators and Bepresentatives who are, or expect to be, members of the Commerce Committee of the Senate and the River and Harbor Committee of the House will leave Cleveland for a tour of the great lakes. The gentlemen in most cases will be accompanied by their wives, and for the en tire trip the party will ba the guests of Sen ator McMillan and Representative Stephen son, of Michigan. Members of committees of both Houses have often expressed a de sire to be personally acquainted with the commerce and localities for the benefit of which public money is annually asked and given, and some of them have at times inti mated that Congress should in some way provide opportunities for personal inspec tions oi tnis kind. ions oi tnis Kind.

The Route of the Trip. The company will leave Cleveland on the revenue steamer Fessenden and cross Lake I Erie and ascend the Detroit river byday- light. After 12 hours in Detroit, where they will be elaborately entertained by the city, the party will go by regular boat northward to Mackinaw, Sault Ste. Marie, Duluth and the various cities on the south shore of Lake Superior. visits will be made to the copper and iron mines of the upper peninsula region and among the Government works that will be inspected, both going and returning, are the Lime Kiln channol in the Detroit river, the Government canal connecting the river and Lake St. Clair; the Harbor of Refuge at Sand Beach, and the Hay lake channel of tho St. Mary's river and the famous locks and ship canal at Saul t St. Marie, the largest in the world, and through which passes each year, according to the official report of the Chief of Engineers, a greater amount of tonnage than enters the port of Liverpool in tho same length of time. Enormous as are the present locks of thi3 great canal, they are already inadequate to the demands of the commerce, and prepara tions are being made to enlarge them and con struct a new one. The Secretary of War will recommend liberal appropriations next year for this system of waterways, and the visiting committeemen will, after a personal inspection, be better able to act advisedly on his recommendations. The Government's Free Canal. Congress last year provided for the pur chase of the canal across Keemenawa Point in Lake.Suporior and making it free to com merce, and the Floating Investigating Com mittee will probably take time to look over the new purchase and determine for them selves what legislation is necessary to make the short cut through Lake Superior of the utmost practical advantage to vesselmen. Senators Fry and Gorman are among the Eastern men who are expected to make, the lake trip. They have been members of the Commerce Committee for years, but have never personally visited tho localities for which they annually appropriate money; in deed have seldom traveled in tho Northwest for any purpose. Extensive preparations are being mado by the citizens of the towns to be visited to extend a cordial welcome to the statesmen. Tho entire trip wilt be devoid of political significance. The party will return to Cleveland about July. 23.. , It has been suggested' that this would be an eminently proper occasion for tho persons interested In the Pennsylvania ship canal to bring that work to the attention of those who could advance the project. AGENT-THOMPSON BOUNCED. ' He Was Altogether Too Industrious Col lector of Statistics on Manufactures. SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. Washington, ifcuo 25. The Census Ofllce has at last, after Affering long and patiently, got rid of Davn S. Thompson, the special agent who has been making a most remark able record as a collector of industrial sta tistics for the city of Philadelphia. As soon as the work of collecting statistics bearing upon the subject or Philadelphia's manufacturers was placed in the hands of mr. xnompson no conceivea tne taea tnat his mission on earth was to prove that this city had a larger number of manufacturing establishments and more money invested in industrial enterprise than any other city In the world. Rag-picking is an industrial pur suit, according to Special Agent Thompson's way of thinking. In furtherance of his booming plans, he actually entered upon his schedule as one of the Industries of Philadelphia, the Govern ment Mint, and reported as the output of the institution the number of dollars coined each year. Another important industrial en terprise that claimed the ardent special agent's attention Is a popular crematory, at which during the few years since the burn ing of bodies became somewhat fashionable, the value of the ashes from a sentimental as well as a purely commercial standpoint were carefully estimated by Mr. Thompson.

SPECIAL TXLEORAMjTO TOE DISPATCH. New York, June 25. When George Frank, or Ameer Ben AH, or "Frenchy No. 1" stepped from the prisoners' box in the Genoral Sessions to-day, to go through the second day of his trial for. the killing of Carrie Brown, he walked erect. Frank uniformly protests his innocence. A sailor, who gave tho name of Charles Jansen, and said that he was a Norwegian, approached Lawyer Friend to-day and said that he could give important information about the killing of Carrie Brown. He said that ho had J ust returned from Jamaica. He was sitting in the Sailors' Home there, he said, when tho news of Frank's arrest for the murder of Carrie Brown reached Kingston. The sailors were discussing tho murder and Frank's arrest, when ono of tha sailors said: "That man never killed that woman. I will bet a guinea to a shilling that he did not. I camo here ontheshlp Minerva, and all my messmates said that they had heard in the sailors' quarters in New York that the murder was committed by a French sailor, who sailed on a ship manned by coolies on the day after tho mnrder. Mr. Friend asked Jansen for the name of the sailor who had given him this information, but Jansen said that he had forgotten it. He said, however, that if Mr. Friend would write or telegraph to Superintendent Hart, of the Sailors' Home, at Kingston, or to the American Vice Consul there, Mr. Morris, tho man's name could bo ascertained. DEPEW IS NOT VINDICTIVE. He Says District Attorney Nicoll Did His Duty in the Tunnel Accident Case. SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. New York, Juno 23. Mr. Depew has had his attention engaged with legal matters of late, and as a result he ivas unusually busy this morning. He, however, found time to speak about the criminal crisis that he passed to-day. In reply to the inquiry as to what he thinks about Mr." Nlcoll's recent legal attempt, ho said: "I don't euro to crit icise Mr. Nicoll's action. He is tho District Attorney of this county and tried this caso according to his own ideas. His offort was an able one, and he lost his case, only De- cause he nau none to oegm witu.

Thus we havo this state of affairs: Five hundred and seventy-live miles of road in States that favor Its method of heating cars, and 25 miles in a Stato that has a law against it." "Thero is a humorous side to this affair," Mr, Dopew continued. "As far as this Is con cerned, though. I am charged with having made fun of the tunnel accident. It is not true.

His Anti-Monopoly Resolutions Not Allowed a Hearing. A FULL TICKET IS NOMINATED, And the Usual Sweeping Condemnation of Old Parties Occurs. GOYEENOR PATTISOX IfOT UNSCATHED Tho Prohibition County Convention, at Lafayette Hall yesterday began in a most orderly manner. There were not over 23 men and women present at 10 o'clock, when. Chairman Yoder called the meeting to order, but the attendance was better later on. The quiet opening exercises were not suggestive of tho volcano which was slumbering, but; nevertheless sent forth its shower of 3parks in tho afternoon. C. L.Rose was elected Temporary Chairman, but only accepted it on condition that he be released from tha afternoon session. On taking the chair he said he was pleased to see so many present; it showed the cause was not lost, hut a grow ing one. At tho conclusion of his address Mrs. A F. Brice was elected Secretary by ac clamation. A committee of three was ap pointed, Messrs. Martin, Swogerand Cole, to enroll all present as delegates to the convention. Messrs. Husberger and Mc Connell were appointed to conduct State Chairman H. D. Fatton and Natiocal Secre tary JobnLloycVto the hall. Mr. Bryce moved, that all resolutions ba published, as ,he was tired of having their sentiments pigeon-holed, and wanted tho world to know what they were doing. Mr. Swoger offered a resolution to the effect that a central committee be formed, consisting of two members from each ward, borough and township in the count, for the purpose of conducting the campaign of the party. This was objected to by Mr. Bryce, but the motion prevailed. A committee of five was appointed to select the central committee. Messrs. Watt, Ray, Martin, Price and Mrs. Mannings were appointed on resolutions. Affected by the Baker Ballot. H. D. Patton, State Chairman, on being in troduced said: "We are trying to do things In an organized way. The party of God, as we are, has a backing that heats anything from Quay down o Town Councilman. The Baker ballot bill does not affect us this year, but it will next. Its object Is to perpetuate the Republican and Democratic parties. In order to have our tickets printed by the State we must poll 27,000 votes at tho next election." Mr. McConnell offered a resolution to the effect that Prohibitionists ignore the election of delegates to the Constitutional Conven tion. Action on it was postponed until a later hour. The convention then adjourned for dinner. The afternoon session was devoted to rou tine business, bnt it was marked by several interesting occurrences. The Committee on Nominations reported the following ticket; Prothonotary H. E. Cole. Director of the Poor E. A. O'Brien Ben net, i Jury Commissioner William Altsback. The latter is from Sprlngdale, the-former- two from Pittsburg. "The report was adopted. Tho resolution introduced In the morning by J. A. McConnell, that the con vention Is opposed to the holding of a, State convention to change the Con- j stitution, was brought up for dls- I cussion. H. E. Cole said he was not f In favor of the convention; that the politics ! of Pennsylvania are controlled by whisky, and that Prohibitionists should guard against any emasculation of the Constitution because it would not be done in the interest of temperance. The resolution wa adopted. Andrew Bryce then said he had some reso lutions that he wished to introduce; that they could be supplementary to tho report of the committee on a "platform" or con sidered merely as a resolution. The Chairman, Mr- Hershberger, stated that the matter of Mr. Bryce should have been given to tho "Platform Committee" in u the morning, and that now It was too late. " Mr. Bryce said he had the right, as a mem ber of the convention, to offer a resolution and that he would do so. The Chairman paid no attention to the re mark and said the committee would now rev port the platform. W. M. Price read the re port. Planks of the Platform. The platform is long and in most particu- ,- lars the reaffirmation of the principles of the previous platform. The manufacture of and traffic in intoxicating beverages was de clared a nuisance, a producer of crime, pov erty and political corruption and a traffic: that cannot be legalized without commit ting crime against the Church and the State. The Sunday laws of 1794 are Indorsed and their strict enforcement demanded. Tho y naturalization laws it declares, should bo so amended as to Increase tho number of years residence required before foreigners should bo invested with elective franchise and that they should have acquired a sufficient knowledge of the English language to read and write It. In regard to the tariff the platform de clared: "The enormous expenditure of money in this country for intoxicating liquors which impoverishes the masses and makes labor less profitable and any rate of wages insufficient to meet tho increasing appetite for strong drink which earnings would otherwise largely be ex pended for such articles as would benefit legitimate trade seems to make some tariff necessary to secure any prosper ity to our manufacturers. Bnt when our country abolishes the drink traffic with all Its criminal accompaniments, and becomes a sober and domestic people, voting forable honest and progressive, instead of ignorant, corrupt and wasteful public servants who are selected by the saloons of the country at , tho recruiting stations and headquarters of the old Tiarties. and shall adODt a financial policy, it will not be kept on the defensive anu require a protective tana to auvance prices.butwill lead tho world in manufac tures and largly supply its markets." " In regard to voting it declared that no cit izen should be denied the right to vote on account of se The "Australian system" of voting was indorsed. The Baker Ballot Law Denounced. Another section of tho platform reads: i "We charge tho late Legislature, aided and 5 assisted by a so-called reform Govern'or.wlth x the passage of the Infamous Baker ballot bill politically in the interest of the Repub lican and Democratic parties; that said law is a disgrace to our Stato and the age in which we live and should be repealed at .the first opportunity. We arraign tho Repub lican party of Pennsylvania for its neglect and refusal to enact proper laws for tho en:.. forccment or article 17 of the CSS stitution, known as tho anti-dls-crimation section, and charge said party with being false to its pledges and the interests of the people." The other features of tho platform were similar to those previously adopted. After a short discussion the platform was adopted ns read. The nomination of (3 dele-rates to the State Convention was then begun bnt not com pleted because in many districts there was no record of names of Prohibitionists. The list will be completed, however, by the Ex ecutive Committee. Rev. Mr. Hoyden, of Bellefonte, Pa., waa present and made a short address, express ing his pleasure at being in "a good prohibi tion fold." Tho most interesting feature of the day occurred shortly after. Mr. Bryce came to the front and demanded tho right to present some resolutions. He was re fused on the ground that there had been a , committee appointed in tho morning to re ceive resolutions bearing on the platform, and standards of the convention and that Mr. Bryce had he opportunity to submit bia resolutions then.
