LONDO.V , July 31. [ New York Herald
Cable [ Special to the BiE.JMany : difficul
ties have arisen In constructing the new
ministry , the adjustment of personal claims
being a woik of peculiar delicacy at this mo
ment. When Mr. Gladstone frames n cabi
net he consults his own wishes exclusively ,
but Loid Salisbury does not exerci.se the
same degice of freedom. Lord Randolph
Chuichlll must bo conslcleied. lie Is the sort
of man wlio will have his own way. Clearly
this cabinet is largely of his making , for nls
personal friends are all in good positions.
TIIIV ; Ann ciiunciiii.i..s KIIIKNDS.
The astonishing preferment of Henry
Matthews Is entirely dun to Lord Itandolph.
No one else , outside of leg.il circles , knows
Matthews , who takes n foremost position In
the cabinet nnd nn olllce worth 5,000 n ycar
nt a bound. Cecil ISalkcs , long and unjustly
neglected , receives recognition of his ser
vices. Italkes , an nblo man and n good de
bater , somehow got shunted. At last ho has
been put on thu track again by Churchill.
Loid Iddesleigh is doubtless Salisbury's
choice. Nearly nil the rest of the appoint
ments were evidently prompted by the youn
ger leaders.
HI.UCTEI : : > CANDIDATES MAD.
Necessarily there Is much bitterness and
heart burning among those left out in tlio
cold. Indications of this bri'ak ' out in letters
to the Times sncciing at Churchill and deure-
catlng his appointment as leader of the
house. Old conservatives generally look
upon him as an infant terrible , self-willed ,
hot-tempered and dangerous , and likely to
end bv splitting ui > the party as Gladstone
has his. They looic very miserable and pre
dict evil things. This Is by no means the
view of tlio younger members , who sec in
Churchill the only man who dared to tackle
Gladstone. They are tired of old hacks and
understand Churchill's popularity with the
masses. It is certain that Churchill is the
only man on the conservative side whom
Gladstone really fears. Ills pungent sar
casms and ( iiiick repartee seem ito have a
peculiarly exasperating effect on the old man.
SOMI ) WITH TUB X.I1IKIIAI.S.
On the other hand , Churchill Is on singu
larly friendly terms , personally , with Cham
berlain , so that there Is no chanca of his fall
ing out with the liberals. My opinion is
that his assumption of the leadership of tlio
house will strengthen his party nt first. Tlio
subsequent result must depend on his own
conduct. At present ho rules the roost.
Cross' carriage stops the way , but In the
course of a few hours It will go on again. It
Is no great secret that Churchill and Cross
are not entirely congenial spirits. If now
blood Is required In the cabinet some

Smith taken care of , Manners dealt gently
with , and Iddlcslclgh placed on velvet. It Is
perhaps thought that concessions enough
have been made to men of Disraeli's genera
tion. When the under secretaries are ap
pointed you will probably find several new
names on the list. The government Is being
constituted under the belief that it has a long
term of olllco belore It , and , barring acci
dents , 1 do not sco how this belief can
fall to turn out correct. In this respect I
cannot ngreo wltn thu opinions expressed by
f
your oilier correspondents. Look cnrefully
I- at the situation. Thu conservatives outnum
ber both divisions of the liberals. They only
need twenty votes , or abstentions from any
quarter , to possess a majority of tlio whole
house. It is
AN i DM : niiEAM
to suppose that both the liberal sections will
combine witli the Parnellilcs to produce
another general election In hopes of reinstate
ing Gladstone. Kccollcct that Gladstone has
given deep and lasting offense to many ot
his old supporters. Ho lias gone out of his
way to cast n deadly Insult upon Chamber
lain , Colllngs , Trovelyan , Courtonay and
others. They will neither forget nor forgive.
Last February they helped to put him In
olllce , but are now bitterly determined not to
fall again Into any of Ids traps. They hayo
have a severe task nnd they don't want a
similar dosu just yet. Itecollect also that
most of the Gladstonlaus who saved their
Boats have had
A Tinillllll.K SltAKINn UP.
Consequently they have lost their belief In
the magic power of their chief , Nobody an
persuade them now that Gladstone Is abso
lutely sure to carry the country with him In
.iiiy measure ho choses to propose. These
measures , therefore , will light shy of any at
tempt , however dexterously concealed , to
upset the conservatives. Lastly , recollect tlm
important fact that the myth of Iho Parnolllto
chip of foity or fifty F.ngllsh boroughs Is
quite exploded. When O'Connor made that
boast In the house 1 felt bound to report II
would Inevitably do his party great Injury ,
nnd tnnt the Kngllsh worklngmon In these
constituencies would bo sure to resent the
bold assertion that Parnell carried them lu

"What was the result' ? Nearly all of them

"First catch your hate and Hum cook U. "
Looking nt these clicumstanccs , what con
clusion Is possible except that tlm conserva
tives will remain in power at least until
Gladstone disappears from the scene. His
own followers would dread another election
more than any other section ot the house ,
mid the country would heavily punish am
party which forced It on. My experience-
pretty extensive In recent elections con
vinces me that the people are exceedingly

for throwing business Into confusion by dls
solving parliament. Anybody who icpnat-
the exiHirlment will rue tlio day. Whllt

oeal government , but all concessions short of

M'CAHTHY ON MATTHEWS.
V llacy Sketch of the Now Homo
Seuretary.
LONDON , July 31 [ New York Herald Cable
Special to the Up.E.J Your readersmay be
> erhans some what astonished when 1 say that
ho appointment of the home secretary In
Salisbury's new government Is the political
'act which at present has the most Interest
fur me. It has , Indeed , quite a curious inter
est for Irishmen living In London. The new
lomo secretary Is Henry Matthews , the dis
tinguished advocate and queen's
counsel , who was leader In thu
case against Dllko , and who was
iltlless in hh cross-examination and remorse ,
ess in Ids denunciation of the great radical
whom falo had put at his mercy. Whllo
Mallhews was denouncing Dllkc , the minds
of some of his listeners went back to another
case in tlio nature of divorce , which was
icardniaiiy years ago , and In wlilch Mr.
Matthews had a different part. That , how
ever , Is not the subject to which 1 wish to df-
rcct attention.
COXCEIININO MATTHEWS.
Henry Matthews is an English Catholic
and a strong conservative , but ho was not al
ways a conservative , as far as Irish politics
are concerned. Many years ago he sat In the
liouse of commons as member for Dungarvan ,
Ireland. How did an English conservative
: et in for DungarvanV Marry I How but by
talking most ardent nationalism ; something ,
indeed , very like fenlanism. The fenlan re
bellion was just over and the country still
seething with Its emotion when Matthews
rushed across from the Temple , presented
iiimsclf as an Englishman devoted In his
sympathies to the Irish people , talked In
Blowing phrases of some of the Imprisoned
i'enlan leaders , quite outshone the Irish lib
eral who was supposed to bo the favorite.and ,
In uolnt of fact , succeeded in becoming mem
ber for Dnngarvan.
HOW HE WAS ELECTED.
There was certainly a novel written some
time after in which , 1 am much inclined to
think , Henry Matliews was described , nnaer
the name Hainllicar Halbart , ns n mlddlc-nzed
English barrister who , despairing of n scat
for nn English constituency , nnd hearing
that some Irish member was not very popu
lar with his constituents , sent for n bundle
of Irish nationalist papers nnd read himself
well up In fen Ian. went to the tem
ple library and studied several books
: ibout Ireland , nnd then rushed over to Ire-
Innd jind presented himself ns a candidate.
tie vaguely hinted at a plebiscite , nnd darkly
suggested that the wrongs of Ireland would
have bcon set right long ago , if it had not
been for certain Irishmen who , although
natural representatives of the great cause ,
had chosen to make it subservient to social
position in London , nud the patriotic Emilo
of a minister.HE
HE WAS QUITE ItKlHT.
Here , let mo remark in passing , Hamillear
Hnlbert was quitu right , Mr. Ilnlbort justl-
lled fenlanism by all the rights of national
freedom and swept half tlio population of the
county along with him by the emphatic dec
laration : "Wero I not an Englishman I do
not blush to say I shonldba afenian. " Well ,
In these days the people of Ireland were
rather sick and ashamed of Irish patriots who
only went into the house of
commons for the sake of Retting a
place or being welcomed In London society.
Haluort , very likely , appeared an attractive
change. Anyhow , Henry Matthews suc
ceeded In being elected to the house of com
mons , and Ironi that moment nothing more
was heard of ids sympathy with tlio national
sentiment of the Irish people. Therefore
Matthews was not ro-elccted for Dungarvan
when that constituency next got n clmnco of
expressing its opinion , and from that time
until the late elections little or nothing was
known in politics of him. In tlio late elec
tions
HE TIUED HIS T.UCIC AOAIN ,
got In for one of the divisions of Birming
ham , and now Is suddenly lifted Into one of
the most Important positions in the govern
ment and becomes a cab'.nct minister. A
more sudden , unexpected and extraordinary
elevation has not been known In my time.
A man of undoubtedly great ability , elo
quence , encrgy'niid force ot character , whoso
career yet must , up to the last election , have ,
lor one reason or another , been pronounced
a failure , becomes at once a member of par
liament , member of the cabinet , and homo
secretary ,
CHUUCIIITJ , nu > IT.
Lord Itandolph Churchill , ppoplo say
made tlm acquaintance of Matthews during
the Birmingham election and was much Im
pressed by his ability and audacity. So far
as capacity goes , I should think Matthews
will justify the appointment. Hut his has
been a curious career. The poor and tolling
man of''In Memorlam" asks : "Does my
old friend remumbor moV" Perhaps some
fenlan exile from Dungarvati may even
now bo asking : "Does my old friend Mat
thews remember moV"
THE I.OIIU I.IEUTEXAST.
Of the now lord lieutenant , Lord London
derry , I know next to nothing personally. I
met him lately at a dinner , but have no par
ticular recollection of anything ho said , 1
know ho once counted the votes of the homo
rulers , wFien standing for an Ulster constitu
ency , before ho succeeded to his title , but I
do not lay much stress on that fact except toi
the ill-omen of Ids descent from Cnstlereagh
of the Union CaMlercagh whom liyron
biandod with such derision , There Is noth
Ing to bo said against him If there Is nothing
lobe said for him.
AN Ol'lVIOK ON HICKS-BEACH ,
Sir Michael Hicks-Heach was Irish score
ary once before and trot through the routine
work respectably , lie IE n man still young
tall , handsome , niLiblo , cold and unimpres
sive. He has not on.o ray of Imagination
one gleam of genial sympathy , but may be
trusted to bo always polite , always attentive
to business , always willing to oblige. In
short , ho Is merely a respectable mediocrity
Ho was a failure- the conservative leade
in thu homo of commons. Lord Itandolpl
would not suhuilt to him any more , so he 1
sent lo try Ids hand n second Omci In Ireland
It does not mailer at all. Hlcks-Bcach wil
bo 0.1 well as another. The Irish people dt
not pare three straws who Is Irish tccrctarj
or who is uot unless , In tlio cnso ot u man
vho comes M John Morley did , to represent

Men of Hcfljtectahle Mediocrity Lord
'
Ohtirchil'i Not a Heavy-Weight.
LONDON , July 31. ( New York Herald
Cable-Special lo llio DEE. ] The work of
cabinet-making Is almost done , Lord Sails-
mry's choice of lieutenants must bo n dlsap-
lolnlment to the rabid Orange section , bo
ar no representatives of the grand lodges
lave been given places , so thai the brothor-
lood has reason to feel angry with tlio llrl-
Ish allies. Salisbury Is evidently aiming to
easiuro the country by selecting men of
uodcrato views nnd wltli some business capa
city. The ciunni of the tory party has al
ready been nominated , but the strictest eclec-
.Iclsm has failed to produce a really strong
covcriimcnt. The now cabinet Is rich In titles
jut somewhat weak In intellect. The refusal
of Ihe unionists to take olllce with Salisbury
compelled the tory chief to 1111 his govern-
iient with respectable mediocrities. With the
exception of Salisbury and Churchill there
nro no men In the new cabinet whoso names
carry any serious weight In the country.
Whether Churchill's elevation to the leader
ship of the commons will bring strength to
: ho tory government depends totally on the
policy the lories arc prepared to adopt. If
: he old line of conservative bo followed the
days of the government are already mini-
jcied. Hartington dislikes and distrusts
Churchill's tory-radlcallsin oven more
than ho docs Chamberlain's Hansom-
radicalism , nnd It Is not likely
lo pull In the same boat for any length of
lime the young gentleman , who by turns is
nn orange man or homo ruler , as best suits
Ids purpose. In all probability Hartlngton
and his unionist friend will sutler a startling
surprise ono of Oieso days. Churchill notori
ously molds himself on Disra'liand means to
liold power by rapid political evolutions.
Ho means to dish the liberals
bv becoming on occasions more
radical than tlio radicals themselves.
It was ho ciilelly who organized the alliance
with the homo rulers last year in the hope
that with their aid ho might climb Into power
and
OUST THE OM ) FOGIES
of his own party whom nt heart he despises.
Now that the unionists have placed him in
power on n somewhat shaky pedestal , ho will
not be slow to discover that his old allies
hnvo votes enough to keep him in power on
n solid basis. Alieady this fact seems to bo
working Its way into the dull noddles of the
London tory editors and as a consequence
their ferocity , like Hob Acres' courage , be
gins to ooze out of their lingers' ends. Homo
rule they still anathematize , but a broad ,
comprehensive local government for Ireland
replaces their twenty years of coercion in
their editorial suggestions. The fact is , nil
men begin to see that unless Ireland Is con
ciliated and contented no stable government
Is possible In England for years. To this
feeling is joined the belief that Churchill will
once again "jump Jim Crow , " and abandonIng -
Ing his Orange friends make a bold bid for
Irish support In a large measure ot home rule
disguised under the name of local govern
ment. Lord Salisbury , notwithstanding his
tall talk , is a
TIMID CIIEATUIIE IN ACTION
and almost wholly dependent on Churchill
who is a greater fovorito than his leader , botli
in the commons and in the country. The
tory leader must therefore consent to bo lead
by his lieutlinant or go to the wall himself.
Churchill is likely to bo encouraged to at
tempt a bold settlement of the Irish question
by the fact that ho will bo supported in carry
ing out a satisfactory settlement both by
Gladstone and Parnell. This support would
make him absolutely Independent of the
orange and old fogy sections of the conserva
tive party and secure him
A SHAKE WITH DLADSTOXK
In the glory of having ellcctcd a settlement
of the long standing dlsnuto between Ire
land and Great Britlan. Wo have already
known that the torlcs have made
up their minds to deal with the
Irish question in tlio lirst Icgl&lativo session.
They want , however , the enjoyment of six
months' olllco' to enable them to docldo on
what lines to attempt It. Tills is tlielr lirst
stumbling block , because the liberal opposi
tion may consider that the torles should
make up their minds by October and even
should now bo In a position to map out the
main lines of their policy. The Irish party
will probably take the same view unless a
very clear assurance of the conduct of the
government towards Ireland Is publicly
given.
BIO FAT.I.IN IMHCES.
The rent question in Ireland this winter Is
likely to prove troublesome owing to the ex
traordinary fall of the prices of produce.
Fanners who nro selling butter at 4 ponce
and 5 ponce n pound which last year brought
12 and 15 pence are asking how they are to
pay rents based on higher prices. The same
conditions apply to the cattle industry ,
graziers finding they have to Bell Oieir fatted
stock at prices considerably lower than what
they paid for the young beasts thrco or four
months ago. This economics difficulty no
"higli-falutcr" talk about law and order can
settle , and should the government attempt to
enforce the
I'AYMENT OF ISU'OSSIIILE HUNTS ,
thu'ro will ben stormy winter in Ireland.
For this grave reason there Is probably a
strong disinclination to leave the tory gov
eminent entirely unchecked 'all tlio winter ,
unless very serious pledges are given by
Lord Salisbury that a moderate conciliatory
policy will bo pursued. This consideration ,
pointed with the threatening aspect of the
eastern question , will make the liberals very
loth to ngrco to a prorogation of the com
mons In February. Gladstone , J believe ,
Is strongly opposed to leaving the tory
govcrnuieut so long free from parliamentary
control , and it Is not likely that any largo
nuinbor of unionists liberals would van-
ture to vote in favor of giving tlio torles nn
absolutely free hand Jir nearly seven months.
1 am pretty certain that Gladstone and his
followers will not postpone the meeting of
parliament bnyond October. If the torles
llko to make a trial of thelf strcnath on tht.
question they may come to earlier grief.

connected with tlio Vatican touching the
pope's habits In July. It seems ho celebrates
mass in his private chapel at 0 a. m. At 7
a. m. he takes breakfast , consisting of choco
late and milk , with sometimes raw eirgs
beaten up In It. Immediately after breakfast
he receives visits from members of his court.
Cardinal Jacoblnl reports to film what has
occurred in the world.and gives him an ac
count of the letters received on papal busi
ness. Besides these official letters , others ar
rive in great numbers from all parts of the
world Irom priests , missionaries , monks and
nuns. Some contain money from penitents.
Many are petitions for , blessings , pecuniary
aid or advice. After these letters , written in
all languages , bavcbscn translated and their
contents briefly reported to the pope , they are
placed In the popal archives. Hundreds of
telegrams arrive .each day , the greater part
asking for a benediction in arllcnlo Morti's ,
which benediction naturally often reaches Hsv
destination after tftape.tliloncr'i'dcath' ' For
telegraphic correspondence the Vatican
makes use of a" numerical cipher. At 1 o'clock

his private room until the heat of the day is

garden whf re his carriage awaits him. In
the prettiest spot of the garden there has
lately been crrcctcd a kiosque in the eastern

time , taking coffee and other refreshments ,
surrounded by his Intimate friends. The con

on articles concerning the popo' or papal
politics that appear in Italian or foreign
journals. At sunset the party breaks up and
the pope returns to the palace , his physician
having abjured him never to remain out of

were also two colored iuencooUs ; Captain
E. A.Itnland.C. Ferguson , mate : L. Bowumn ,
sloward ; with Sam Jones and W. Paris , sea
men. The schooner was hired by thu party
torn pleasure Irip to Now lorn by sea , slop
ping on thu wny nt Capo May
nmt Atlantic City. Mrs. llaskln expected
to meet her husband in this city to-day.
The party Idft Sprnco slreet wharf , Phila
delphia , on Tuesday mornlnir in Iho schooner.
At Atlantic City M'lss JesbkfMcUluroleft the
schooner on account of sea-sickness.
Tlio vessel was just outside of Sandy Hook
on Friday evening when the storm broke.
Tlio captain took In his foresail at once
and furled it. Mr. Clark was suffering
fioiu soa-slckness , and had gone down to the
cabin. The ladies went below when the
storm b.'gan , nnd were much frightened. The
captain endeavored to beat up into the bay.
The schooner was working along slowly with
mainsail and jib set. About 0o : :
. m. , when about C03 vnrds below
Sandy Hook buoy , outside , nnd
thu saino distance from the bench ,
a terrible squall struck the vessel , and sue
was forced completely over on her beam
ends , throwing those on deck into the water.
The schooner filled Evcryi rapidly , but was
kept nllont by her sails and air pumps. The
passengers ami crew reached the boat and
clung to the planks. The occup
ants of tiiu cabin wcro still nlivu
and the Imprisoned Indies , in
heartrending tones , screamed and pitcously
begged for lielp. Tholr anguished Iriends
were helpless and could do nothing to save
them. One of the young ladles reached up
to the window , which was under water , and
one of the men caught her hand , but it
slipped , leaving one of her rinirs in
his hands. She fell back nnd was not seen
again. The others wcro In the nart where
the air kept tlio wntor down. Their agoniz
ing cries continued for awhile , then nil was
still. Some perished by suffocation , for their
faces when found wcro black as from chok-
tnp ; others held on to the sides of the cabin
as long as they could nnd then let go to
drown.
A pilot in a skiff came out and saved the
oUifcr passengers and crow. Three tugs came
out to the wreck but nothing could bo done
to save the the unfortunates in the cabin. .
One of the tugs tried to tow the
wreck to the government wharf
at Sandy liook , but the force of the storm
caused a high sea and the tide was too strong
to do much , but they persevered in the teeth
of the storm. All night long they worked
until 5 n. in. , when they reached the wharf.
The work of raising was then
bosun. While it was proceeding
the bodv of Mrs. Stevens flouted out of the
the cabin anrt was secured. After the
wrecked schooner was partially raised Can-
tain Sully began diving for the bodies. He
was three hours in the water and recov
ered all of the bodies but that of
Miss ISctlwett , which could not
bo found. It is supposed that it has
floated under the end of tlio berths nmier
water. Captain Gully is thoroughly ex
hausted with his heroic exertions. About
noon to-day the seaich was discontinued.
Tlio bodies wcro lying on tlio deck of the tut :
covered with canvas.and CoronorVanwert.of
Long iSranch , then took charge of tlio bodies
nnd with an undertaker went to hong
Branch. An Inquest was to bo held to
night , The grief of the saved passengers
was terrible. None of the party could
speak of the terrible calamity without
breaking clown. Tlio remains of the drowned
ladles and Mr. Clark will bo g nt to Phila

qiiHiit events , resulting in this morning's out

tory named , as compared with the yield of
wheat for the two previous years ; also the
present condition of the corn crop ns com
pared with the 1st of August last year. The
estimated Increase of about 'iO.OOO.OOO bushels
of winter wheat over the short ciop of last
year is partially olTsrt by the estimated de
crease of about 23,000,000 bushels In Iho yield
of spring wheat , and whllo the aggregate
wheat cmp of this district promises about
53,003,030 bushels more than the short crop of
last year , It Is worthy of note that It will
probably fall about 00,000,000 bushels below
Iho crop of 1SSI. Tlio condition of the corn
crop has bcon seriously reduced by Iho pro
longed drought , but In considering the out
look It must not be forgotten that this dis
trict hns an Incieaso of upwards of 'J,000,000
acres planted this year , including about 'M
percent Increase In Kansas. Our estimates

The StutB Hosts Its Case.
CiucAoo , July 31. At the anarchist trial
to-day , when llio state had finished Its readIng -
Ing from the Arbolter Xeltung , Detective
James Uonllcld was placed on the stand , and
Identified some rod Hags and banners , which
were brought'Into court , ns those found In
the A rbcltor Xeltung olllce. They bear such
Inscriptions as "Evyry government Is n con
spiracy against the people , " "Dick Oglosby ,
who murdered three paor worklngmen nt
Lamnnt , Is not In this procession ; you can ,
see him later , " "Boys stick together , " etc.
Mayor Ilairlson being In contt , the follow
ing inscription on another banner created
considerable amusement nnd caused the
mayor to smile. It read : ' 'Carler Harrison ,
who clubbedourcltizens during theenr moil's
strike , Is not In this procession. You can
see him.later. "
"Hero the state rosts"sald Slate's Attorney
Grlnnell. and the court ordered the defense
to proceed wllh Its case. Before opening Its
rase the defense entered n motion to dismiss
the case against Necbo on the ground there
was no evidence connecting htm with the of
senses charged. This was overruled , and At
torney Solomon proceeded to oddiess the
jury for the defense. First , ho complimented
the jury on its patient endurance of Its trying"
position , nud asked Hint each member glvu
the same close attention to tlio evidence pro
duced by the defense ns ( hey had to all that
had been presented by the state. Ho
nskcd the jury to decide whether the stale's
attorney had fullilley his promises mndo in
tlm opening of tlio cise tor thu state , whnn
he stated that he would produce in court les-
tlmony proving who throw the bomb. Una
this boon doneV Solomon claimed It had
not. Proceeding to the charge * against thft
prisoners , Solomon said they were
not charged wlto anarchy or social
ism , but. ns shown by the Indictment ,
the cchargo was the murder of MnthiasJ.
Dcgan. The law. ho said , did not iirovldo
anyclauso which declared , or could be cun-
btrned to declare , that the defendants had f
committed murder. Mr. Solomon read from ,
the statutes to show that the evidence brought
against the defendants did not prove that
they were accessories to murder. He then
lend from several authorities to show what
constituted the olTeusc of conspiracy. Ho
said If tlio state hada case nt nil it was on
tlio chnigo of murder or conspiracy , and
upon no other.
"These defendants. " ho said , are not mur
derers , or thieves , or burglars. They ate not
criminals , but mo possessed of n feelinirol1
broad humanity , we expect to prove that
these men assembled at the llaymnrkct on
the night ot the 4th of May , to exercise the
rialit of free speech ; to hold a peaceable meet
ing held for the purpose of discussing the In
terests of the laboringiuan. But wo
sec In the action or the police an
incredible animus. Wo see in
in them a devilish dcslirn , a fiendish design ,
an intention to destroy every lite on Hint
market. We expect to show you that Ficlden
lircd no shot nt thntmcctini ? , nnd ho did not
then nnd never hail a revolver. Wo oxnect
to show you that tho.-witness , Gllmer. is n
constitutional nnd professional liar. Wo ex
pect to prove that on tlio night of the Hay-
market meeting .Schwab did not sneak to
Spies , as has been testified to , but that he Iftft
the meeting some time before the explosion
occtiriOil. AVe expect to show that Parsons
and Fischer Iclt the meeting eailV and were
seated in Xepf's hall , peihaps drinking n
glass of beer , when tlio bomb exploded , wo
shall prove that Ncobo was at home , and ox-
pcct to show that lie had no knowledge of tl-o
meeting. You are familiar with the movements
of Llngg. The evidence In no way connects
him with the throwing of the bomb , and if
lie made bombs he did no more than lie had a
perfect right to do. We expect to show you.
that none of thcso defendants lircd the shots
at tlii. Hayiuarkct meeting , and the first shots
wcro fired by the police.
At the conclusion of Mr. Solomon's address
the court adjourned.
