[ Special Telegram to THE BnE. ] The plan of reorganization , of the \Vaba3h Western purchasing committee , does not meet with unanimous favor nmong the stockholders. Snld ono of thorn to-day : "Tho whoto thing looks to mo like n very smooth confidence game. In the first place , Joy and Ashley Induced , all the security holders except n few bondholders , to pool their securities nnd elect n purchasing com mittee to buy the Wnbush railway. Wo elected Joy nnd Ashley as the purchasing committee , with the undorsuuullng that their duties were to consist only In buying the road. Then wo , the stockholders , and the dobcnturo bondholder. , were to elect the board of directors. Instead of this plan being carried out , Joy and Ashley give nolico that they will themselves vote all the stock nnd elect the directors , and consequently dictate the management. After nil this is done wo are to receive stock in the new com pany In exchange for our old stock. "I understand the plan of Joy and Ashley to bo to olcct the latter as president of thu consolidated road , nnd Edgar T , Wells , of Mexican International fame , ns vice-presi dent. That simply moan * another wreck for the Wabash. I know the majority of the stockholders are against the plan , and would far sooner see Receiver McNulta made presi dent , but the whole lot of us can't produce a share of stock. Perhaps the stockholders , or thobo who were stockholders , can enjoin the purchasing committee and compel them to give up thnir stock prior to the election , July 27. 1 would willingly Join in such a move ment.

Two Lowly Lovers Take Enough Mor- pliiiif to Kill a Dozen. CHICAGO , May 31. In a ramshackle two- story housa on the South side live two fam ilies by thonamo of Sullivan and Bell. Lost night Nellie Sullivan , aged nineteen , and John Bell , aged twenty-one , together took enough morpnme to kill u dozen men. The other members of the families discovered this fact some hours later , but failed to send for a physician until they saw the girl was dying. When the physician finally arrived and administered emetics the girl was be yond recovery , but it is supposed Bell will recover , The causa of the sulcido is a com plete mystery. The young couple were lovers , and there was no opposition to their marriage. Tbo police are investigating. The neglect of the other occupants of tbo house to summon a physician ut once is attributed to stupor or indifference superinduced by drink. Hon. Li. A. Kmiisbury Dead. YASKTON . Dak. May 31.

ERIN , ISLE OF SORROWS. A Son of Ireland Ottntoa , n Typlca Cnso of Landlord Despotism. A "Son of Erin , " writing the editor of the Doston Olobo , siiya : Tliu ruthless tyrmit still pursues hta hltloous work In Ireland. Hero Is n sample of. the lutcst net of barbnrlam In that misgoverned country : A correspondent of the Kilkenny Moderator writes : "I have just re turned from the smouldering ruins of n fnrmor's dwelling nbout n mlle nnd a quarter from whore I write , on the main road to Kilkenny City. I must say the barbarous occurrence can have no ether clToct t'mn to intensify the unfriendly feelings which for some time past ex isted between Major Holy of Foulks- courtund his tenants , who nro numer ous in this locality. The facts of the case , which has thrown the town and country all uround into the wildest ox- oltomont and Uidifrtwtion , are , as far ns I could ascertain them , us fol lows : .Tames Kavanagh. of Sevan Sisters - tors , the evicted toiuint , is ever seventy years of IIRO , and since his eviction about seven weeks ago has boon living with adollcato wlfo , with a man named iDholan. of Donoughmoro. In March , 1883 , Kavamigh wns served with an ejectment for jCCj , 17s , .Id ono yoar'- rent and nrrcara , ending SHHh of Sops tembor , 1887. Ho farmed about six teen or so von teen acres , the yearly rent having been raised fromXlU to JC20. Kuvanagh endeavored to make up a year's rent , which ho offered to Major Huly and his ngont , Mr. Hanly , of Thurles. It was refused , and Kiivannch having boon evicted an omereoncy man of Haly's took possession of the placo. On Tuesday about 10 o'clock , a. m. , two mon arrived on u sido-car from Thurles , provided with crowbars , and nt once sot to work on the front wall of the house which soon gave way , showing within a kitchen in the centre , with parlor and bedroom at either end. When the front had been battered down to the level of the windowa-sills the roof gave way , and the thatch was then sot on fire , aud all the timbers , doors aud windows shared the general conllagration. When 1 reached the the place about 5:80 : p. m. the black walls und gables were still enveloped in smoke and I noticed a window , with frame , shutters and linings placed ever a strong little lire which the emergency tnon had purposely lit for their con sumption before leaving. I have never seen a man so self-possessed as Kiivu- naufjh was at the pitiful sight of his burned homo fronting the Seven Sister Hills , which rise behind towards the east Here ho had spent his years from his childhood , and here it was that hia grandfathers had strug- glodoutanhonoBtlivolihood for upwards of two hundred years. Even if such conduct aa has boon nractised on Kavii- naugh should have the olTcct of squeo/- ing impossible rents out of the unfortu nate tenants in miserable tillage land , u burned house should have a sorrowful reminiscence for Major Holy , for it was within the present charred walls of Violet Hill mansion close by that a no table member of his family once per ished. Well , the poor man who has witnessed the burning of tho.old hoineatead whore his forefathers dwelt some two hundred years must have felt the iron of oppres sion , outer his soul. But when will this cruel war bo over ? Not until home rule is granted. Then despotism must cease. WOMAN AGAINST SERPENT. Mrs. Strait Vanquishes a Hoa Constrictor stricter In a Dark Cellar. Ono of the most perilous battles be tween a. woman and a largo boa constrictor stricter occurred at Grand View last evening , says the Kansas City Traveler : About 7 o'clock as Mrs. H. N. Strait , the handsome and accomplished young wife of H. H. Strait , of the Wyandotte Plumbing company , descended , into the collar of their residence on Sixteenth street , Grand View , she was starDlcd by a loud hiss and two ( lory ret } eyes looking directly at her. Returning with ! i lump the lady discovered a largo snake hud dled around a piece of wood. Taking a coal shovel in her nand , Mrs. Strait prepared to do battle with thu monster. The first blow seemed to infuriate the reptile , and with a louud hiss it sprang at the now thoroughly alarmed but brave woman. A blow from the bhovol knocked the thrust aside , and with the rapidity of lightning the snake again prepared to strike. Five consecu- live tinia did the huge monster retreat and then plunge through the dimly lighted air ut the woman who was so nobly defending herself. At last a well directed stroke knocked the reptile to the floor , und boomed to stun it for u moment. The glittering eyes had now become two fascinating balls of lliimo and the great fangs worked with awful velocity. Following up the blow Mrs. Strait succeed in killing the boa , and with fast failing strength she reached the lloorubovo , where help soon reached hor. hor.Mr. Mr. Strait is in Wyoming territory , where ho is largely interested in a newly discovered mica mine , and his wife was alone with the borvmiln. A party of neighbors wore summoned and the snake carried into the woodshed- It proved to bo a boa constrictor and measured 11 foot nnd eight inches from the head to the tip of the tail. It in supposed to have escaped from some menagorio. presumably the London circus , which is now at Armourdalo. Shu l-'cU It.
