BOGUS HIGIILAXD CHIEFTAIN'S MUST GO rET CABLE TO THK nlSrATCH.l Loxdon, Nov. 19. Copyright. Queen Victoria and her court went to Windsor Castle yesterday, aud will remain there until shortly before Christmas, which, in accordance with custom, will be spent at Osborn, in the Isle of "Wight During the journey from Scotland this time precautions lor the Queen's safety were taken upon such an elaborate and large scale as to suggest comparison with a traveling Czar. But they were sui;sested,not by tear of political plotters, but by the recollection of the terrible accident which occurred only the other day to the famous Scotch ex press, which traveled part of the way over the same route taken yesterdav by the royal special train. The managers of the various roads decided, therefore, to take no risks. The royal train, preceded by the usual pilot engine runuing 15 minutes ahead, was Jiand-signaled throughout its passage from llallater to "Windsor. Ordinary traffic was stopped everywhere for half an hour, and common people were rigidly excluded from all stations. All this naturally caused a good deal of public inconvenience, but, as far as can be ascertained from the news papers, nobody has thought fit to grumble. A Crusade Against Buckhounds. The Queen will find at "Windsor a large number ot petitions for ami against the abo lition of the royal buckhounds. One signed by the nobility and gentry of the neighborhood calls tor the retention of tame deer-huntine in the sacred name of sport, and one lrom the tra letmen of "Windsor urges that local business would suffer it the famous hunts should be aband oned. The petitions against the roval buckhounds lay stress upon the cruelty of hunting tame animals, and hint that the Queen is setting a bad example to the whole country. They have been organ ized mainly by the newly-formed "Humani tarian League," which proclaims ps its leading principle that "it is iniquitous to inflict suflering on any sentient being ex cept when sell-delense or absolute neces sity fin be insllv nlpndpt? " As a matter ot fact the Queen, as the i readers o: HIE DlsrATCH already know, has decided that the royal buckhounds shall cease to exist at the end of the present Bea ton, otherwise the fanatical pretensions of the Humanitarian League might induce her to change her mind. The League's argu ments tell against nearly all forms of sport, and the Liaiue's members wouid equally brand as cowardly scoundrels the working Man who courses rabbits, the Prince of "Wales who hunts faxes, stalks deer and shoots pheasants with impartial ardor and the German Emperor, lio has just com pleted the twentieth anniversary of his de but as a sportsman, and claims to have shot about 18,300 head of came since he was firs permitted to handle a shotgun. A Countess Flays in Hani Luck. Tiie Countess de la Torre is not a member oi the Humanitarian League, but she is a lady of fine feelings aud strong lancnage which qualify her lor membership. Both qualities have lrom time to time brought lier into collision with the magistrates in London who have had to adjudicate upon "omp!aints made by town neighbors as to the excessive number of cats and o?ier auinial pets kept by her ladyship in defi ance of the sanitary regulations. Just now, however, the Countess is re tilting in the center of a district hunted by the royal buckhounds, and she witnessed the other da a cruel chase oi one of the Queen's tame dcers, a sight that did not please her. and she promptly expressed her sentiments in this telegram, which she ten dered at the local postoffice for transmis sion: Editor S'ar, London: Another disgraceful deer hunt, same Idiotic bucks, dissipated women and snobs. The postmaster, in exercise of the dis cretion permitted to him by law, refused to accept the telegram on the ground that it contained abusive lausruage, and the Count ess had to mail it. She means to contest the postmaster's right to refuse to trans mit the true, if strongly worded, descrip tion of the hunt by the roval buckhounds, and as the Countess is rather fond of law, the oflemlins othcer is likely to have an anxious time for the next few months. It is understood that the Countess asserts that the dissipated women mentioned by her included a number of titled ladies, who lisd dined and wiued too generously the niht previously, necessitating morning "pick-me-ups." No More Bogus Highland Chieftains. Several American citizens who love to play the role of Highland chieftain will be much disturbed to learn that the Govern ment has decided to appoint a committee to inquire into the subject of the deer forests in Scotland. For many years past the Highland land owners, tempted bv high tporting rents uhich American millionaires and other wealthv men have been willing to pay, hate steadily pursued the policy of depopulating their estates in order to make rnutii for deer. Thousands of industrious farmers have been turned out of their hold ings and forced to settle in districts already congested, to migrate to town or to emigrate to the United States or Canada. The work of extermination has cone on unchecked and unnoticed except when, now and then, the poor people have resisted eviction with unaccustomed energy or have ventured in their desperation to kill the landlord's game to feed themselves. Tiie committee, when it shall have ascertained the facts, will have little diffi culty !n recommending remedies. These ujllinclude restriction of the size of deer forests w hich, it had been borne in mind, are not as a rule really forests, but pasture and land formerly under cultivation and the prevention of arbitrary eviction. The .immediate effect of the appointment of the committee will probably be the cessation of the crolter emigration to British Colombia, for it landlord tvranny and rapacity can be stopped there will be no need tor the people to sck a living in strange lands.

Itussia has tried an experiment with aluminum shoes for cav alry horses which will, no doubt, prove in teresting to the owner of Nancy Hanks and other flyers. A few horses in the Finaldn Dragoons were fhod with one aluminum Mine and three iron shoes each, the former being on the fore loot in some cases and on the hind foot in others. The experiment lasted six -weeks, and i-ho.ied that the aluminum shoes lasted longer and preserved the foot better than the iron ones. No aluminum shoes broke, and they were used over again for reihoe- ! inc. The horses, moreover, were worked over hard and verv stony ground. The most important fact of all is that aluminum horseshoes are onlv one-third to one-lourth the weight of ironfiTioes. A BIG CORRUPTION FU2JD. Little Donbt That Hair a Million Dollar "Was liaised by British Brewers for Tory Election Purposes TheCorrnpt Prac tices Act at Least in Danger. tBT CABLE TO THE DISPATCH. LON'DON-, Nov. 19. The petition against the election ot Mr. Balfour for Manchester has completely failed. The judicial in quiry showed pretty clearly that the Tories indulged in many illegal practices, but the Liberals, betrayed 'by some of their own itnesses who there is reason to believe were little better than disguised Tories, were unable to proye the complicity of Balfour or his agents, and their case broke down in a lamentable manner. The Tories, of course, were jubilant,buttheirjoy was short lived, for vesterdav the judges unseated the Tory member for Warsall upon the petition of the Liberals for offenses against the oor rupt practices act, with the result that for the moment, at any Tate, Mr. Gladstone' majoritv is again 40. 'Ihe evidence given at the Warsall in quiry shows the extensive prevalence of corrupt practice, but the judges took a benevolent view on the crucial point of agency, and the actual illegality on account ot whioh the election was declared void was to the lay mind comparatively trivial. The local brewers society and a Conserv ative association, whose members included all the Tory candidates and prominent sup porters, conducted the contest as though the corrupt practices act had no existence, but the judges held that they were not legally the candidates' agents and that therefore their illegalities could not be taken into consideration. It is doubtful' whether this curious ruling would be up held on appeal, but as the Liberals haye gained their end in another way they will not take the matter to the higher court. Upon the eve of the last general election it was asserted that the allied liquor trades had set aside 100,000 with which to help the Torv candidates. This statement was denied at the time, but inquiries atMan chester and Warsall have shown that it was substantially correct. LEFT "WITHOUt A JOB. Convict Aid Societies in England Have Little Nowadays to Do. TBT CABLE TO THE DISrATCH.1 Losdos-, Nov. 19. In these troublesome times of social agitation it is pleasant to note the fact that in England a steady fall ing off in the population of prisons, which began 12years ago, still continues. In 1880 the number committed to jail was-19,818. The number for the past year was only 12,663. It must be admitted that greater leniency on the part of the judges accounts for part of the decrease. A fact is brougnt to uotice that the tailing off has left many so-called Rescue and Convict Aid Societies with nothing to do. Indeed, one or two ja'l chaplains have drawn attention to a. most unseemly rivalry between these institu tions to get holdof discharged convicts, in order to bestow on them their bounty. The chaplain writes: Tliero is an overlapping of labor in the rescue elfbrt which is acting very pernic iously to the work cenerally and to the women indivi lually. With sucn contentions for her case, and with such notice as she is at present receiving, she is beginning to look upon heisclf not as a penitent, but as a pers'iu o a certain value for philanthropic ad ertisement," RUSSIANS AS EVER HEABTLEBS In Their Persecutions of Hebrews on the Slightest or Pretexts. rBV CABLE TO THE DISPATCH. LojfDOK, Nov. 19. The latest indignitf offered the Hebrews by the Bussian Gov ernment was at Moscow. A new syna gogue, built "under Government permission, was to be dedicated last week under the ap proval of the authorities. The He"brews proceeded with great ceremony to the new place ot worship, and to their amazement found the place guarded by the police and the crown seal put upon the door. No one in Russia, of course, dares to interfere with the cron seal, but the Hebrews procured a ladder, broke one of the windows, and then, one by one, men, women and children cot into the church. They conducted the ceremony of consecration, and.mide their exit the same way and went home. In the evenine an order was issued by the Governor of Moscow for the expulsion from the city of 12 chiefs of the Hebrews, and the order nas immediately put into force. One of the expelled was a man of 70, much respected in Moscow, e THE PRESS BILL PASSED. Loubet Accepts the Amended Measure, bat Minister Iticard Is Defeated. Paris, Nov. 19. The Chamber of Dep uties' Committee on the Press Bill to-day announced that they had expunged from that document all phrases which conld be made the pretext ibr arbitrary proceedings. M. Loubet accepted the amendments, as they guaranteed the liberty of the press without robbing it of its powers.

An amendment abolishing the power of de lay in the execution of sentences under the press laws by notice of appeal was adopted. The bill, as amended, was passed without a division.

A telegram from Porto Novo was received to-day which said that various rumors bad reachtd there from the seat of trouble.

He had also made other promises, but he would not consent to the condition that General Dodds imposed, namely, that Abomey, the capital of the countrv, should beoccupied by the French forces before negotiations were opened.

CORRALLED BY QUAY. r - Only One Philadelphia Member of the Next House of Representatives KICKS OVER THE SENATOR'S ROPE. AH the Best Hun Around the Ring at """" Borer's Beck and Call. 0THEE INTERESTING POLITICAL NEWS tmCIXL TELVGIUX TO TWH D1KPA.TCIT. Philadelphia, Nov. 19. While the Philadelphia members of the next House of 'Representatives were in ses sion in the big room at the headquarters of the Republican City Committee this after noon, quite an important gathering of the combine bosses was in consultatien in the little back room where so much important work has been done on the star chamber plan. Among those in the historic little room was David Martin, who keenly feels his loss of prestige that resulted from his New York fiasco. The representatives got together in good time and Harry F. Walton named for Chairman, William F. Stewart, of the Eighteenth district, who is credited with having openly chafed under the burden of the Quay collar, and was feared because of his well-known fighting abilities. Boyer Ieads the Quay Forces. After Chairman Stewart rapped for order the silence that is generally a notable feature of a Quaker meeting prevailed lor a few moments and everybody showed symp toms of embarrassment until ex-State Treasurer Boyer read the prepared resolu tions, which were as follows: Whereas, The duty of electing a United States Senator to repiesont the Common wealth oi Pennsylvania for the en'iiins six years will devolve upon the Legislature at the next session thereof; and Whereas, Hon. Matthew Stanley Qnay, in his devotion to the varied interests of the Commonwealth, and his valuable services to tbe part)-, has justly earned a continuance of the confidence reposed In him. as evi denced by the overwhelming expressions of opinion in his favor by his Republican fel low citizens: therefore. Resolved, That wo cordially tender him oni-support for re-election to the United Slates Senate. When Mr. Bover sat down, a dozen mem bers seconded his resolutions, and the cry of "Question" was raised. Chairman Stew art requested all those who favored the res olution to say "aye," and there was a lusty chorus of affirmative votes. One Man Wants to Be Independent. Then he called for the "nays," and a soli tary voice was raised. It was that ot Frank M. Riter, the handsome young member from the Tenth district, who had the mis fortune to run on the same ticket with ex Marshal and ex-Sheriff William R. Leeds. "I wish to state," he said, "that I vote for myself, and that my vote expresses my sen timents. I now wish to ask the Chairman, having made this explanation, whether I will be bound by this caucus?" "Certainly not," replied Chairman Stew art: "This is not a caucus. The gentleman is at liberty to vote as he sees fit" Frowns chased away the smiles that had become stereotyped on the faces ot the Quay people "when the Chairman an nounced that every man was at liberty to vote as he pleased. They wanted him to crack the whip and cause a unanimous vote, and his independence was annoying. Representative Stewart calmly ignored the frowns, however, and entertained a motion to adjourn, which was carried without a dissenting voice. After adjournment Representative Har rison strayed in, and frantically shouted: "I got here as soon as possible, and I want my' vote for Qnay recorded." He was ac commodated and retired happy.

THE NEXT CONGRESS. Democrats Will Rave a Clear Majority or 90 Some of the Contests That Are to Be Made The Populists Not at All Strong. Washington-, Nov. 19. A complete list of Representatives in Congress elected last week, made up from the returns re ceived by the Democratic! National Com mittee and, compared with those received by the Clerk of the House, agree substan tially with the estimate sent out by tbe Associated Press. It shows that the Demo crats have elected 222 members, the Repub licans 125, and the Populists 7, giving the Democrats a 'majority of 90. If the Demo crats carrv the election for Congressmen in Rhode Island they will have a majority of 92 over all opposition. True, the Democratic candidate in iaano, who was defeated by Willis Sweet, has filed his notice of contest, and so has John J. O'Neill, Democrat, in the Eleventh Mis souri district, who claims that illegal votes were cast tor Charles Joy, the Republican to whom the certificate was issued. Al though no notice has been yet filed, it is understood that Donald "McNaughton, Democrat, in the Thirty-first New York district, will contest the 'seat of John Van Voorhis, and that J. Maurice Finn will contest the seat of Samuel Stephenson, Re publican, a member of the present House. The Seventh South Carolina district, known as the Black district, also promises its regu lar contest " Tne Third party, or Populist vote, will not be strong in the Fifty-third Congress. It is given as a voting strength of seven, but this will not be manifested on all occa sions. Pence, the Populist elected from the First district of Colorado, :s a Republican, and so is Francis Howlands, of Nevada, and generally they may be counted upon as act ing wjth the members of that party. Mc Eeig'an and Hem, ot Nebraska, are Third party men in the present tHouse, and were elected to the Fifty-third Congress on a Fusion ticket They will go into the Dem ocratic caucus and act with that party. Davis, Baker and Simpson, of Kansas, will, as a rule, be .found in the Democratic col umn ot votes on all propositions which are divorced from their peculiar notions of finance.

DIED WHILE UNCONSCIOUS. Peter Spankier Passes Away at the Alle gheny General Hospital. Peter Spankier, the man who was found on the Evergreen road, near Millvale, Fri day night last with a bullet wound in his forehead, died at the Allegheny General Hospital last evening. When Spankier was brought to the hospital he was in an unconscious condition. YesterdajTmorning he recovered his senses long" enough to tell the attendants that he had shot himself. The physicians were greatly mystified over Spankler's condition, especially when after an examination they found the wound in his head was 'not of a serious nature. They suspected that the man bad been poisoned, and their suspicions were con firmed yesterday afternoon when a friend of the injured man railed at the hospital. The visitor gave his name as George Kastle meyer, ot East street extension, Allegheny. He told the physicians that he believed Spankier had poisoned himself and then mentioned something about a bottle. When Kastlemeyer left the institution he prom ised to return in a short time with a bottle belonging to Spankier which was supposed to contain poison. Before Kastlemeyer returned Spankier died. The dead man was 25 years old, sin gle and a native of Germany. Ever since he came to this country he has worked as a baker. No cause can be assigned for his suicide. FLED tO ESCAPE ARREST.

About an hour later Miss Wilmer appeared at Magistrate Donovan's office and swore out a warrant for her assailant's ar rest. Constable Connelly was given the paper to, serve, but on going to the Reilly residence, at No. 14 Linden street, Alle gheny, he found the occupant had sold all of her furniture and disappeared. None of the neighbors seemed able to tell where Mrs. Reilly bad gone until the con stable pretended he wanted, to buy some thing from the Missing uoman. Then he was told she had gone to the house ot Mrs. Rodgers uho lived in the vicin ity.

More Particulars of the Departure of the Force for Homestead. SHOULD HATE BEEN ST70EN IN HIRE SPECIAL TXLEOSAM TO THE DISPATCIT.1 Chicago, Nov. 19. Senators Peffer and Gallinger, of the Senatorial Committee, continued the investigations of private de tective acencies to-dav. Colonel W. P. Rend, the coal dealer and mine owner, told the Senators that they had a Titanic mis sion to discharge. He did not believe that hthe troubles between capital and labor could be easily patched up. Senator Gallinger asked Colonel Ttend what he thought of the laws looking toward arbitration. He replied that they tended toward communism and anarchy. Conciliation was the first thing, in his opinion, to be tried: it that failed, then re sort to voluntary arbitration, and he be lieved that there had been a great deal of pernicious legislation toward that end. Colonel Rend was asked his opinion as to the qdestion of employing detectives to go among labor organizations and keep tbe leaders under constant espionage. He said he had never employed detectives for such purpose, and that he regarded the practice with extreme ill favor. Plnkertons Fonnd Too Expensive. Roswell M. Miller, President of the Mil waukee and St Paul Railroad, testified that during the Burlington strikes a strike of Milwaukee men took place. He em ployed Pinkerton men for a short time, but discharged them as futile and expensive. T. J. Morgan, the labor -leader, said he had experienced but one day of strike lite. He knew nothing of the employment of dectives. He said the English language was inadequate to express the hatred which workmen felt for detectives. He coincided with Colonel Rend as to the futility of legal arbitration under existlne conditions. At the atternoon session Richard Powers Faid he was a vessel dispatcher and had ex perience with the famous strike of '77. The aid of the State militia was called in, and at time the name of the State militia Has as obnoxious to the men as is the name ol Pinkerton to-day. Workmen's Objections to Detectives. Powers reviewed the great strike at the stock yards in '79. Twenty thousand peo ple were out of employment. The Pinker tjn men were brought and 200 of them paraded the yard. The result was that the strike was prolonged. But lor the nnpnita nT tho Plnlrprtnnq the disnnte would have been settled in a very short time, by arbitration. "What is the objection to the Pinkertons on the part of the workers?" Powers was asked. "First," answered the witness, "95 per cent of them are aliens; second, they are of the criminal class; third, they are men who cannot be believed under oath." The witness admitted that he spoke with out personal knowledge, but he believed his statement was accurate. He was in favor of arbitration by the law or by volun tary effort. He expressed the opinion that there nas not a labor organization in the country in which Pinkerton men are not employed as spies. Their presence was detrimental to the welfare of both worker and employer. How the Men Left Chicago. Superintendent F. Murray, of the Pink erton Agency, was recalled. He supplied the committee with a list of tbe men sent to Homestead. The number was 124. They left on the night of July 4. The fact of their going by night was merely a matter of convenience. They did enter by the rear car, aud these cars were guarded by armed officers. They had been engaged two or three days before the d-ite of departure. He told the men that there was little if any danger. "Inasmuch as your men had arms sent ahead of them, on what hypothesis did you think there would be no danger?" ' "Our instructions were that there would be no danger." Asked -as to the men being sworn in as deputies, he said it was the intention to have them sworn in, but he supposed the swearing in would not take place "until they reached the works. The witness again reiterated the state ment that all men were chosen with great care and regard to character. Charles Wappenstein, against whom' an accusation was made by a witness, had never been con victed of crime, and was never under the shadow ot crime. Several names, includ ing John F. Dingall, David Lynch, Stephen Collins and B. F. Ward, were mentioned, and the witness questioned as to their char acter. He denied that he knew anylhiug against any of them. Edward J. Martin, who is employed bv Armour & Co., w as next called. His evi dence contained nothing of public interest. The committed then adjourned until 10 o'clock Monday morning. PICKED TJP BY THE POLICE.

The story ofamlsspent life and the dissipation of $200,000 is told in tbe bloated, almost un recognizable remains of "William Nettle, an Englishman, which were fonnd in the Niagara recently, and were buried la pauper's grave. Seventeen yfltrs ago, in smoky old Lon don, a bright-faced young man in his teerfs was enjoying; 'a lucrative clerkship in a large London banking house. He was a native ot Cornwall, England, and was pay ing court to Miss Marshall, a handsome En glish girl. Seated one morning at his desk in London he was handed a telegram. It announced the death ot a wealthy uncle,and disclosed that he was sole heir to 10,000, or f200,000. Sadijen Elches Tnrned His Head. These sudden riches coming on the youngster turned his head. In all the rounds of dissipation which followed be never forgot the sweet English girl to whom he plizhted his troth, and whom he loved and who loYed him. Finally he pulled himselt together, for he realized that he must reform. Soon after they were wedded, and life was happy for a time. Gay com panions, however, sought him out, aud soon wine, hunting parties, eta, had him in the toils. A good part of the J200.000 had disap peared, and tbe rest was melting away un der the baneful influence of the fast set and the leeches who were sucking his life's blood out. A Last Attempt to Xteform. To save his wife from want be deeded a valuable farm to her. He came to this coun try three vears a;o, yet a yonng man, and attempted one more effort to reform, but.it was a failure. His last spree was indulged in, as usual, among the boon companions ha had picked up in the village saloons. He left them'alte'r that and was never seen by them again in life. "William Nettle's body was found No vember 10, in an old raceway. The otly trace oi him was tbe word of a boarding housekeeper that the man stopped there and otted him money, and the inscription, "William Nettle," on the register on the hotel blotter on October 14. The Coroner and police went to work and cleared up the mystery. Edward Marshall, of Petrolia, Ont, a brother-in-law of Nettle, arrived here to day.
