his reported talk on the flag order was In a

phvslclnn came up. A watchman seized
Dally , who stood looking on , npp.i'ently ' the
most unconcerned , self-poised man In the
ctowd. Kennedy expired In five minutes.
Dally paid little attention and refused to say
why iio committed thu crime. He Is a man
about fifty yeara ot luo nnd apparently n

In reviewing the occurrence of Juno 30 ,
seems the king was at first strongly Incline
to losist the demands of the people , bt
changed his mind when ho found his palac
deserted by all his soldiers and retainer
Even after acquiescing in all the domain
he appeared to think his life In danger. Th
caused him to ask the American and otln
forelcn representatives to assume control <
affairs temporarily. The Dally Bullctl
declares that the new ministry hi
found that in addition to I
regular revenue nil postal savings and bar
deposits have disappeared and loan fum
have been used to fill the gap In tlie revenue

the that criminal trials yesterday under tlio
eviction resistance with scalding water
have just reached hero from Limerick. Jus
tice Johnson presided at the assizes. It
seems that on the estate of the Karl of Devon
the sheriff , thirty constables nnd eight bail
iffs , with no soldiers , have u\lcted a tenant
named liallinan. There had been the
usual barricade of trees , timber and rocks.
Six men and three women , part thu family of
the tenant and part neighbors , were the re
sist tints aud were Indicted. Evidence was
ulvon by the bailiffs perfectly flxlne the
identities as to whom of the accused had
thrown boiling water , scalding porridge and
used pitchforks through orllices made by the
besieging bailiffs. It was distinctly shown
that one of the prisoners had thrust with a
red hot Iron bar , burning an emergency man.
Local solicitors appeared for the accused ,
watching the case , but no barrister. Not a
bit ot evidence for the defense was adduced
and no address was made for It
Justice Johnson summed up pointedly
against the accused , but alter soinu hours'
deliberation , a majority of the Jurors favorIng -
Ing acquittal , he discharged the jury on dis
agreement , roundly scolding the unknown
dissentients.
Next ho tried five men for riotous conduct
at another eviction on the same estate. "Hero
some witness did testify against the police ,
charging Darbarlty. In a short time the
jury acquitted the men amid the cheers of the
spectators.
The Irish members this morning were ar
raigned by the Dally News , liberal pnpar , for
temporarily defeating last night's bill , akin
to the Now York measure permitting , but
not compelling , the accused to testify In his
own behalf. But one Irish member assured

wherever the members of the association saw

applying the principle of arbitration , they
should unceasingly work for the cause.

UTICA , N. V. , July 13. President Cleve
land with tilslfe , sister and niece , Colonel
Lament and Prentiss Bailey , of Uttca , came
down from Holland Patent on a special
coach at U this morning. They were met by
Prof , iloyt and a number ot ladles and gen
tlemen of the centennial committee from
Clinton. Prof. Iloyt made a line ! address , to
which the president responded In a few
words. An Immense crowd was at the sta
tion and cheered the president as the train
pulled out for Clinton.
President Cleveland and party reached
Clinton about 10 a. m. An Immense , crowd
was at the station to greet them. They wore
escorted to the residence of Mrs. O. S. Wil
liams , where they wore greeted bv prominent
members of the centennial committee and
many venerable cltl/cns , while the parade ot
six divisions was In progress. In the parade
were the chiefs , descendants of Indians who
cave the site ot the vlllnire to Its founders.
Skenandoa and Uottater. and over 100
Oneldas with an Indian bam ) from Ououdava
reservation. Nearly all available space with
in the village Is crowded with spectators.and
'hoy are still comln In. After the parade
tie president received 3,000 people.
Only one Grand Army of the Republic post
ook part In the piocesslon , and that was tlio
"Union post.
The exercises In the park did not com
mence until nearly 2 o'clock. Itev. Henry
'Jarllng , present ot Hamilton college , of-
ored the openlnc pra > er. Rev. E. P. Vowell
lien made the address of welcome , to which
lie president responded an follows :
" 1 am by no means certain of mv standing
ere amonc these who celebrate the centen-
jlal of Clinton's existence as a village. My
ecolleotlons of the place reach backwaid
lit about thirty-six years ; my lesldcnce here
levered a very brief period , but those rucol-
ectlons are fresh and distinct to-day , aud
ileasant , too , although not entirely tree from
ombre colorings. It as hero In school at
he foot of College hill that I
egan my preparations for college life and
njoyed the anticipation of a collegiate edu-
: ation. 1 read a little Latin with two other
oys In the class. I think I floundered
hrough the four books of the . /Kneid. Mv
trugcle with ten lines ot Vircll which at
irst made up my daily task
ro amusing as remembered now.
am also forced to remember that Instead of
lemg the beginning of higher education , for
.vliicli I honestly longed , they occurred near
he end of my school advantages. This sug
gests disappointment which no lapse of time
: an alleviate and a deprivation 1 have sadly
felt with every passing year. "
The president then recalled faces still ta-
uiillar to his memory and continued : "I
know you will bear with me , my friends. If 1
ield to an Impulse which mention of Home
reatcs , and speaking of my own homo here
and how through the memories 'which cluster
bout it , I may claim tender relationship to
.our village. Here It was that
our family circle entire parents and chil
dren lived day afur day In loving and affos-
tlonate converse , and here , for the last time ,
\\einetnfouud the family altar and thanked
God that our household was unbroken by
death or separation.Ve never met together
n any other home after this and death fol-
, nwed _ closely our departure. And
hus It U that with advancing
rears I survey the Imvoo death has made , the
. lioughtK of iny early home become more and
moro sacred , and the icmembranco of this
> loasant spot so related Is revived and clias-
onect. I can only add my thanks lor tlie
iirlvlloge ot being with you to-oay , and wish
for tlie village of Clinton in the luturo a con
tinuation and increase of the blessings of
the past.
At the banquet this evening , In response
0 the toast , The President of the United
States , " Cleveland spoke as followst
" 1 am Inclined to content myself on this
occasion with an acknowledgment on behalf
of the people of the United States of the
compliment which jon have paid to the of-
tico which represents their sovereignty. But
such an acknrlediment : suggests an Idea
kstilchl cannot refrain from dwelling upon
or a moment. That theoltieoof president
of the United States does represent tlio
sovereignty of 00,000,000 ot people Id to my
mind a statement lull ot solemnity , tor this
so\erelguty 1 conceive to be the working
act , or enforcement of the divine gift or
man to govern himself and a unnifostatlon
of God's plan concerning the human
race. Though tne struggle of political par
ties to secure the Incumbency of this otliuo
and the questionable methods sometimes re
sorted to tor Its possession may not bo in
keeping witli this idea , and though the deceit
practiced to mislead people In their choice ,
and its too frequent influence on their sutt-
rage , may surprise us , these tilings should
never lead us astray In our estimate of this
exalted position and Its value and dignity.
Though your fellow-cltuens who may bo
chosen to perform lor a time the duties ot
this highest place should be badly selected ,
and though tlio beat attainable results may
not be reached by his administration ,
yet the exact watchfulness of tlie
people. freed from the disturbing
turmoil of political excitement , ought to pre
vent mischance to an otllce which represents
their sovereignty and should reduce to a
minimum the danger of harm to the state. 1
by no means underestimate the importance
of the utmost care and circumspection in the
selection of an incumbent On the contrary ,
1 believe there Is no obligation of citizenship
that demands more thought and considerate
deliberation than tills. But 1 am speaking
of the cltUcns dutv to the oflice nnd Us be-
lected Incumbent. This duty Is only pet-
torincd when In thu interest of the entire
people the full exercise of the powers
of the chief magistrate Is insisted
on , and when for the people's safety ,
due legard for tlio limitations placed
upon tbe ollice Is exacted. These tlilnu't
should bo enforced bv the manifestation ot a
calm and enlightened public opinion. But
this should not bo simulated by the mad
clamor ot disappointed inteiest , which , with
out regard for tlie general good or allowance
foi the exercise ot ofliclal judgment , would
degrade the office by forcing compliance U
seltish demands. If your president Miouhl
not be of the people and one of j our fellow
citizens , ho would be utterly unlit tor the po
sition , incapable of understanding thu pee
ple's wants , careless of their desires. That he
Is one of the people implies that ho is subject
to human frailty and error , but he shouU
bo permitted to claim but lltilo toleration for
mistakes. The generosity of his fellow
citizens hliould decree how for good inten
tions bhould excuse his shortcomings
Watch well , then , this high ollice , the mos
precious possession of American citizenship
demand for It the most complete devotion 01
the part of him to whoHO custody it may bi
entiustcd. Thus will you perform IheHacrei
duty to yourselves and to those who ma ;
follow you in tlie enjoyment of the frees
Institutions which licavcn has ever vouch
safed to man. "

Its nature was similar to the case ot Senator
Payne , he could not bring It before the sen

knowledge that the money was used. Ho
thought Hill shoald bo requited by the com

that they were without foundation , He also
thought the commission should summon tlio
