The convention endorsed the Indepen dent ticket and the proper return was made to the county clerk to insure having the nnmoa printed on the tickets to bo used , The action of the convention in endorsing what Is termed a mongrel ticket was resented by the straight democrats. Last Saturday , under n call of a committee , nnothor democratic coavon Ion was hela and n full slmon pure democratic ticket nomi nated , which was also reported to the county clork. Tno strength and feeling mani fested in Saturday's convention rather surprised the oilier wing of the party which had gone , bog and baggage , into the Independent camp nr.d today notice was fllcd witb the county clerk to the effect that nn injunction would bo asked restraining that olllccr from having the names offltho candidates of Saturday's convention printed on the ticket , holding that the convention was not legally called and that Its actions were not in accordance with tbo law.

The porter of this car was badly injured. The train had between eighty and 100 passengers , many of whom weio scratched and bruised , but no fatalities are thus far reported. The cause of the accident was the loosening of a rail ou n curve , which is believed to bo the work of unknown parties. Investigation showed that an attempt had been made to wreck the train , Spikes had been drawn from seven of tbo outside rails on the outer edco of the embankment , Just nt u point where the track makes a curve. No spot bettor adapted to the plot could have boon selected , and It was evidently selected in the hope that the engineer , fireman and employes in the baggage and mail cars would bo killed ns soon us the forward part of the train struck the loosened rails. Then throe cars could bo looted , and ns they carried n great quantity of mail , the plunder would have been very prolltablo. It was also found that tbo angle plate used to strep tbo rails together had been pried on * and Jammed under the rail. The passengers in ono of the coaches caught u glimpse of one of the would-be-robbors as ho rushed off. Hail road Dcctoctivo True is already at work upon the caso.

They nro like so many straws blown by the wind , they talk like schoolgirls when you ask them to explain what their future political course will bo. At this hour , 7 In the evening , they are like n rudderless ship. John Ucdman , admittedly the best man nmong them , has nothing to say. Ho wants the leadership , but probaoly knows that ho Is not strong enough to quench the spirit of envy that his election as leader would create. Timothy Harrington , tbo next strongest man and head of the league , is in a lamentable condition of Indecision. Ho and his comrades had , n mooting this mornIng - Ing to docldo whether or not the Parnollito organ should continue to live. They arrived at no decision and all Harrlng- zen could say was that bo thought the publi cation of the paper would bo continued. Touching the future political course Harring ton could only say "that will bo decided nt tonight's mootiug nt the National club. " I said , "but surely your speakers know what they would say before the meeting will open ! " Harrington in a hesitating way said , "I will toll you our decision at 1 : UO tonight. " Governed by Sentiment. 'Todav the matter Is the Parncllltos , rather than take the bull by the horns , prefer to bo quieted by the conduct of tonight's meeting , hoping that it will show them n way out of their dlnlcultios. Cool headed and thoroughly informed , men hero describe the political prospect this way : A wcolc or mouth , per haps even thrco months , sentiment will play a strong part. Parnoll has Just. died. His virtues will bo remembered and his faults forgotten , then will como nn inning for practiclo politics. The Pnrnullltes , with out a lender , u creed or n farthing , will go to the wall. Their leader and creed were taken from them nt ono blow and their source of revenue disappeared nt the same timo. They are penniless. Most of them never had any money and nearly all of them were and nro paid servants and have made moro out of politics than they over did out of any thing else. None of them are men of striking ability. They wore never anvthing but fol lowers. The general belief is that they ncfer will bo anything else. They can do nothing , oven to the injury of Ireland's pros pects , without money. This they cannot got hero and they see llttlo prospect of gottinz it from America. The coolest of them see but one thing to dote join hands with their former colleagues. y uerly Hopelesa They nro divided , but were they as solid as a rock they could make little headway. Their ono hope now is In the memory of Paruell. They point to the size and charac ter of his funeral. It was n line funeral , but small In comparison with their hopes and their estimates. Parnoll and his old followers are not in the same boat. They are of llttlo consequence quence ; apparently ho still is. Thousands went to Glasnevln cemetery today to look at his grave. The weather was delightful. The space around the grave had been made secure by ropes and posts. A space lif teen feet square was covered with llowors. Many were under glass. Within a radius of 100 yards of the grave not a blade of grass Is to bo seen , the closely shorn turf has been ground to mud aud never grow again until It has bs < ; n seeded. The Pornellites In parliament point to this us an evidence of popular favor. It may bo for Parnell , hut not for them. They hold a mooting this afternoon to docldo upon tbo course to bo taken at Wright's mooting. They talked and talked and came to no con clusion. Are they animated by any personal motives ! The mooting nt the National club began at S o'clock , It was attended only by Parnellleos. Amounted to Nothing. The meeting amounted to nothing. There were no speakers of prominence , In fact it might bo entitled a sort of blind , for while it was in progress the Purnolllto parliamentary part wcro holding n meeting in the rooms of the National league. I called there by appointment with Timothy Harrington nt 10:30. : Ho said n number of Dublin pressmen were standing about the door. To thorn he had paid no attention. In an hour ho said ho would have something shortly before midnight. The Parncllltos gave mo the following manifesto : Iielund has lost her leader , hut the cause of Ireland's freedom remains.Vo h ivo a duty to the living and the dead. That duty Is to maintain , elect and unsullied , thu ttus of national Independence.

The religious newspapers should bo under the control of the church.

Ho was sovuro in Ins Criticisms upon tlio secular press for Its light treatment of serious topics , laughing at suicides and publishing detailed reports of scandalous divorce cases. Mr. John II. Lllo of London hold that on this question the luyincjn should bo heard. He bad gouo into many a store in New York , Boston and Washington and tried in vain to buy u religious napcr. The English religious press also ncodud improvement. As fur as tbo English dnilv press was concerned it was to bo deplored that all of the principle papers had the betting news ( hour , hear. ] Had the reports of cross-examinations in scandalous trials. Ho hoped that n religious dally paper would be hi ought forth. The London sporting papers bad a larger circula tion than all of the religious papers. The editors of the religious papers should discuss social questions and avoid politics. Mr. Atkinson , an English mcmbor of parliament , thought that ns all political parties had their organs the religious press .should take no account of political things. In his opinion religious papers had a higher mission than politics. A man should do tbo thing ho could do best. Ho was proud of Dr. Hughes ns a preacher , but ho was not and never should bo proud of him ns au editor.

Dr. Palmer of England was grateful to Dr. Hughes and said it might bo that con demnation by homo speakers was equivalent to the praise of others. This remark called forth manifestations of mingled applause and candcmnntion , and Mr. Atkinson , with soiro spirit , interrupted to ask , "If that sort of in sinuation is to bo brought forward on an other brother. " I'olillofi and Kolt ioii. The chairman restored order and Dr. P.il- mer withdrew his remark , but immediately nftorward aroused Mr. Atkinson by referring to a remark mudo by Mr.-Snape , to the effect that one of the English political parties had rlddon into power on a beer barrel , and add ing : "Wo have never learned that , tbolr party was divorced from the boor barrel. " Mr. Atkinson replied excitedly that the mirty was never married to it. Mr. Palmer rejoined that ho was 00 years of ago and as competent to form a judgement as others. If tbo gentleman was in tbo British parliament ho would ho ex pelled.
