LONDON , Fob. 18. Crowds of curious per
sons swarmed In Greenwich park today ,
packed the terrace in front of the celebrated
observatory and filled all the elevated portions
tions of this popular resort for Londoners
from which Is obtainable so extensive nnd
Interesting a view over the river. The day
was fine und cold. Stakes dotted the ground
where portions of the dynamited body of
the anarchist Boudln had been found. All
of these slakes were in line with the spot
where the body was discovered. At the
post mortem examination a dozen metal
boxes , similar In their contents to the bombs
used by Boudin , were produced.
Tlio publicly unnounced'incetlng of the
'Autonomlc club , under the auspices of the
international workers group , was attended
by only fifteen persons. Fourteen of these
were foralgncrs. The speakers who had
been announced to address the meeting did
not appear. After watting two hours Gibbons
of tlio commonwealth group made a speech ,
in the course of which ho urged effort in
righting the wrongs they complained of.
Ho held up Valllant , Pallas and "other mar-
llyrs" as worthy ot his hearers' emulation ,
llundreds , he said , were ready to sacrifice
their lives in the great cause. He himself
was perfectly prepared to do so , as they had
nothing to live for , but were simply the
slaves of the capitalists. Speeches , he added ,
were useless and physical force was neces
sary. When the government and Mr.
Asqultli abandoned making Maxim guns for
use against the people the latter would re
linquish the manufacture of dynamite
bombs. Tlio speaker advised workers to read
books upon chemicals.
Other speeches , similar In tone , but in for
eign languages , were made to the audience ,
which made up In enthusiasm for the smallness -
ness ot the gathering , nnd wildly cheered at
every opportunity tho"scnllmcnts ot tholr
leaders.
Detectives in citizens' clothing were pros ,
ent and scattered in all parts of the bull.
This may have had Its good effect , for out

Fuller details are received hero of the

an early hour In the morning suspicious
movements In the long grass around the
camp , and [ after -watching these closely
finally gave the alarm. The British troops
quickly turncTl out , but had scarcely taken
their position when a sharp volley was flrcd
Into the camp. Thlc was promptly replied to
by Iho British , but from the way tbo attack
was made , tbo village being half surrounded ,
It was at llrst thought that ono part of tbo
British force was firing on tbo other , and
Colonel Ellis gave the order to cease firing.
However , when the British stopped firing the
Bliarp whizzing of the enemy's bullets
showed that the fusllado came from an at.
tacking party and firing was resumed by tlio
llrltlsli , whoso spirited reply ultimately
caused tbo enemy to cease. Captain Londy
commander ot the frontier police , wus shot
In the arm , but bo kept on encouraging hl&
men to maintain a steady flro until ho was
shot dead by a bullet through the spine ,
After the enemy bad been repulsed nnd day

it his mother's IIOJSQ wus searched last night.
Tha pollco found much 'chemical apparatus

Including a group of twenty anarchists. All
of these things will prove valuable to the

LONDON , Feb. 18. Four thousand per
sons assembled In Trafalgnr square today In
answer to an appeal for a manifestation
against the House of Lords for destroying
the clauses In the parish councils bill which
called for n reforming of tlio London
vestries. The meeting , with much show of
feeling , adopted resolutions condemning the
House ot Lords for Us action In this matter.
The speakers , who were vociferously cheered
tlmo and again In the course of their re
marks , were Joseph Arch , Dr. Charles L. D ,
Tanner , the Irish nationalist ; Dababhal
Naorojl , the well known merchant , and five
other members of the House of Commons.
Joncpli Arch said Lord Salisbury had done a
wonderful service when ho had made the
rope wherewith to hang the lords and put
this rope In their opponents' hands.
The meeting adopted resolutions declaring
the HOUBO of Lords to be a mischievous nnd
useless Institution and demanding It should
bo abolished forthwith.
The clause of the amendment , which came
In for the most vigorous condemnation was
that moved by Lord Ilalfour ot Durlclgh , to
prevent Iho application of the special pro
visions of the bill to the London vestry on
tlio ground that the vestry had been wholly
taken by surprise by the government.
Lord Kllborne on the part of the govern
ment In opposing llio amendments says lie
saw no reason why the House of Lords
should abstain from reforming the vestries.
All the government proposed to do was to
assimilate the franchise to that of 'the elec
tions of district councils In other localities ,
to abolish the qualification now required for
vestrymen und to apply the ballot act and
the corrupt practices act In those cases.
Lord Salisbury , In answer to Lord Kll-
bornc , declared It was only when the House
of Commons had become exhausted and re
duced In Its numbers that the government
suddenly conceived the desire to reform the
vestries without giving cither to those
bodies themselves or to the people of Lon
don generally any opportunity of examining
into the nature ot the particular changes
proposed or Into their necessity. Tlio
amendment was carried by 107 .votes to 2C.

WASHINGTON IUJRBAU OF THE DDE ,
513 Fourteenth Street ,
WASHINGTON , Feb. 18.
President Cleveland Is being urged to
nominate a capable republican or mugwump
to the supreme court vacancy to which ho
nominated Hornblowcr nnd Peckbam. The
vacancy was left by the death of a republi
can , Justice Dlatchford. There are on the
bench two democratic associate Justices ap
pointed-by republican presidents. Justice
Field of California was appointed by Presi
dent Lincoln and Justice Jackson of Ten
nessee by President Harrison. There arc
many republicans In New York fit for the
position who would not be objectionable to
Hill or Murphy and n number of other demo
cratic senators , und who would command the
nulled support of all the republican and
populist senators. Ex-Senator and now
Representative Henry W. Illulr , n republi
can of New Hampshire , believes President
Cleveland should appoint a republican to the
vacancy , nnd says the position rightfully
belongs to tlio republican party. Ho
adds :
"Mr. Cleveland could thus throw
upon Mr. Hill the onus of having
deprived the democrats of another repre
sentative upon the bench. When the nomi
nation cama before the senate the repub
licans would certainly support the nominee.
If ho was a fit man for the place , nnd the ad
ministration democrats would support him ,
as they support everything the president
does. I should like to see the president fol
low out this suggestion.
"As for Mr. Hill , It seems to me that ho
will bo the strongest eastern man Jn the
democratic party when the time comes to
make nominations In 1S9G , This certainly
will bo the case If ho continues to nvinlfnst
as much strength as he developed since ho
has entered the senate. American political
history affords few instances , and Indeed 1
do not now recall one , where a senator baa
successfully led two big fights against nn
administration. Sumner went down before
Grant and Conkllng before Garfleld , but Hill
has come out on top twice In succession. If
ho does not lose his hold on New York , ho
will bo a formidable candidate. "
COST OF CABLE MESSAGES.
If the proposition "for the United States
government to assist In the laying of , a
cable from some point In southern Call-
forn'n ' to thf Sandwich Islands bnd .suc
ceeded , the Hawaiian difficulty would bavo
long slnco terminated. The olllcluls at the
; _ * uv.iai cmviit , usiiic u Jin uuviiiK any
sympathy or prejudice In the affair , are Just
now congratulating themselves that there
was no cable communication between this
country and Hawaii. They 'say the tele
graph tolls during the past year would bavc
been enormous. As It was the telegraph
bills1 on account of the Hawaiian affair
bavo been confined to sending messages be
tween hero and San Francisco , where they
have been received from or taken away by
the malls.
The revolutions in the South and Central
American republics during the past year or
two have entailed considerable expense upon
the Department of State In the way of cable
messages. For instance , about $6,000 was
expended during tbe latter part of the little
Incident In Chill. The correspondence was
largely conducted by wire between this gov
ernment and Us minister. The Instructions
given American representatives through the
London legation alone during the past' year
exceeded by some thousands of dollars the
appropriations for that purpose , whllo the
legation In Brazil expended $4,150 last year ,
when only $1,800 was allowed by law. The
disturbances In foreign countries necessitat
ing cable communications averaged during
tbe past year over $2,000 each for tbe Ameri
can ministers. Where there was not money
In' tlio contingent expense account to meet
these expenses the ministers advanced them ,
and now the Department of State Is asking
for a deficiency appropriation of $10,000 , mak
ing a total of $105,000 , to .cover the extraor
dinary expense of our foreign missions last
year.
There Is a prevailing Impression that when
a minister In a foreign country receives a
"collect" cablegram or telegram , or package
of any kind , ho simply tells the person de
livering It to "churgo it up to the United
States. " On the contrary , the minister or
consul pays spot cash. If thcro Is no money
In the contingent fund allowed him by the
State department for such expenses , he
simply goes down Into his private pocket ,
makes the payment , and renders the bill to
the Department of State. * Under 'democratic
rule that department Is always hard up ,
and so tlio bill has to go to congress and
everything and everybody must watt until
an appropriation is made. It hi Just so In
every branch of the government. Uncle Sam
has come to bo a very closo-fisted and hard-
tip sort of n person. Ho stands off his
creditors until he Is about to bo sued , and his
credit Is bad , when ho goes to congress and
begs for a llttlo money.
HAD YEAH FOR PROMOTERS.
If would seem that this Is a very unsuc
cessful and unpropltlous year for the lobby
and the corruptlonlsts in Washington.
Everything the lobby has put Its hands upon
has failed to succeed. The scheme to sub
sidize certain fast through malls on railroads
and steamships was advocated In tlio house
at the e'urly part of tlio special se&slon by
well known lobbyists , and It failed before it
oven materialized In a bill. Then the lobby
attempted to get rights of way through In
dian reservations for certain railroads , but
u blunder or two exposed the schema and
It failed. When the lobby for the Whisky
and Sugar trusts had completed Its prelim
inary work nnd the Wilson tariff bill went
to the house , the newspapers pointed the fin
ger of scorn at the work , and It failed ig-
nomlnlously.
The headquarters for the Whisky trust
1ms been at ono of the best known private
hotels , nnd n sulto of roomx has been engaged -
gaged by the Sugar trust for some weeks
at a hotel Just across the street from the
other lobby. The managers have been to
brazen as to openly send for prominent
men In congress and take them right Into
their rooms. Thcro they have attempted
to Influence these men , but public indigna
tion has been worked up to such a point
that It lias come to bo a scandal for any
decent person to even visit these rooms.
The cappers for the Whisky und Sugar trusts
have lounged around the corridors of the
capltol and stood outsldo of the hotels
where the headquarters are located , with all
ot the effrontery and openness of ticket
Boilers for a aldo show at the circus. The
exposure of the operations of these men
through these and oilier dispatches bus
already defeated the alms of the corrup-
tlanlntB. It Is stated that before the Wil
son * tariff bill Is finally disposed of the
methods of the lobby will bo ventilated on
tlio floor of the senate or the house , and
that things will become very uncomfortable
for Eomo public men who have given en
couragement to these parasites on the po
litical body at Washington.
POPS UP AND COMING.
Tbo popullntH have opened their political
campaign committee headquarters here , and
have begun to flood tbo country with ( lot
money , free silver , free trade und kindred
literature , mostly In the form of copies of.
speeches delivered In congress. Nebraska
will bo deluged , Representative Jerry Simp
son of Kansas says ; "Tho battle cry of our
campaign will bo the free coinage of silver.
This Is to bo tbo one Isbuo that wo Will hold
up above all others , and we are working In
harmony with the silver leagues that are
being formed In the fcouth and west. Wo
require of all Iba caudldat to wbopj
we glvo our support that they shall agree to
our financial principles , nnd wo want them
before they are eli-cteiV to agree not to enter

this congress was elbctcd thcro were thirty
or forty men who had 'been ' elected with the
aid of populist voles , but when they came to
Washington all but a dozen of them fell Into
the ranks of the old organizations and lost
Ihelr Individuality. "

WASHINGTON , Feb , 18. Senators Daniel ,
Caftery nnd Whlto of California have given
notice of speeches on the Hawaiian resolu
tion for this week , and It is probable that
other senators will .speak upon the subject
before next Saturday.- There will bo an ef
fort to have the resolution disposed of dur
ing the week , as there will also bo to get
Senator Stewart's bond resolution off the
calendar. Thero. will probably bo some
speeches on this question also. Indeed , the
senate will make the week , us far as pos
sible , a cleaning up week , so as to make way
for tbo tariff debate , which will necessarily
prevent the consideration of less Important
subjects when It shall once bo begun. The
special orders for the week Include the con.
slderatlon of the printing ofllco site , Russian
thistle and McGurralmn. bills.
The fight over the silver seigniorage bill
will be resumed In the bouse tomorrow ,
and Mr. Bland is confident that there will
bo a quorum on hand to order the previous
question either tomorrow or Tuesday. Once
the necessary quorum Is obtained , and that
Is only a question'Of time nn the opponents
of the measure have practically abandoned
hope of defeating tlio bill , It will be brought
to a vote , If need be , by a special order
from the committee on rules , the speaker
having promised a special rule If the cmcr-
ccncy demands It ,
On Wednesday the Joy-O'Neill contested
election will come up and If disposed of
the Cobb-Whltlcy and Engliah-Hllborne
cases may follow. If not the remainder of
the week will probably be devoted to ap
propriation bills , th,6 fortifications bill being

Alleged llcnellts.
GERING , Neb. , Feb. 13. ( Special to the
Bee. ) A startling proposition , which has
been quietly discussed In the western section
ot the state , found Its first public expression
at the Irrigation convention ot Scott's Bluff
and Cheycnno counties , hold In this city
yesterday. It Is no less a scheme than the
annexation of the territory lying west of the
east line of Colorado , now what Is termed
the "panhandle" of Nebraska , to the state of
Wyoming. The counties which would bo nf.
fected by this proposed segregation are1.
Deticl , Cheyenne , Banner , Kimball , Scott's
Dluff , Dawea , Sioux , Box Butte-nnd Sheridan.
The reasons assigned for advocating such n
novel plan are almost entirely conflncd to
the Irrigation phase In Its bearing upon
the future prosperity of the largo area In
volved. The claim Is made that the greater
portion of the state of Nebraska Is oblivious
of the great necessities of the pcml-arld
portion of the state , that as u whole tin-re
Is no sympathy with the Irrigation Idea In
the populous sections of the state , nnd that
the western end of the state Is left entirely
to Us own resources to work out Its salva
tion as best it can. It Is n fact that Wyo
ming Is as a state fostering and encouraging
Irrigation , nnd granting to the producers
under that system of agriculture the most
favorable legislative conditions. There are
many protective features to the Wyoming
statutes , and the advocates of this plan urge
It on the ground that the Interests of this
section of Nebraska are Identical with
these of Wyoming , whllo In many ways op
posed to the accepted conception of the In-
terc'sts of Nebraska as a whole. They claim
that from tlio situation of western Nebraska
with relation to the great mineral fields of
Wyoming , there will bo found the future
markets for Irrigated produce , and that It
will bo simply a step toward getting Into
touch ns between producer nnd consumer.
The Idea has found many warm advocates
who are actively engaged In missionary work
along this line , and no doubt exists that ,
whether eventually successful or not , the
movement will assume tangible proportions
before long. A number of speeches were
made In favor of tbo annexation theory ,
and It Is even understood that steps looking
toward tbo necessary legislation are being
taken.

SIDNEY , Neb. , Feb. 18. ( Special to The
P.CO. ) With all the bard times that have pre
vailed In the eastern cities , western Ne
braska , and more especially Sidney , has en
joyed Its full quota of prosperity. Whllo It
Is quite true that the farmers bud a par.tlal .
fuliuro of crops the past season , and that
_ uioney has been in many cases stringent ;
they have weathered the storni and , are now
looking fgnvard with brightest hopes to the
coming'Boason , und anticipate ono of the
biggest crops that lias over been harvested
In the west , The ground Is now In splendid
condition owing to recent heavy snow storms ,
and there Is adequate moisture. This is
also a natural stock country , its wln
ter grazing being better than a gold
mine. More than three-fourths of the horses
nnd cattle have not had un ounce ot grain or
hay and no shelter , except the protection of
the hills nnd valleys , nnd , notwithstanding
these conditions , are hog fat.
The problem of Irrigation Is yet In Its In
fancy , but experiments looking to n rapid
solution of the mooted questions Is finding
many advocates. Time , means nnd money
will bo employed , artesian wells will bo
undertaken In various communities and
everything done to place the farmers on a
plane with his eastern cousins. Glvo us
plenty of water In the months of Juno and
July and no happier or more contented people
plo will bo found on earth than the sturdy
heroes who occupy Uncle Sam's broad
domain In Cheyenne county , nnd truly nan It
be said that every farm will blossom like the
rose.
In 1S)2 ! ) wheat averaged twenty-five bushels
to ( he acre , rye twenty-four , oats forty ,
barley thirty , corn forty , all other small
grains proportionately.
The very best of building stone Is found
In Immense quantities In this vicinity. It
Is ot a dolomite nature. It Is hard , giving
a spark when struck by a steel hammer ,
and has been freely used in the construction
of all the largo buildings here.
The Union Pacific railway contemplates
the hulMIng of a new depot In the spring ,
two stories In height , 40x110 feet.
No better schools can bo found anywhere ,
and a nine months term Is taught. Most
all of the Christian denominations have
erected elegant churches and are well sup
ported. All of the secret societies are rep
resented In Sidney , bavo nmplo treasuries
and largo membership. The Masons ,
Pythlans nnd Odd Fellows will erect three
magnificent temples shortly.
Fort Sidney Is ono of the attractive
features of the city. Four companies of
the Twenty-first Infantry are stutlonod hereunder
under command of Colonel W. J. Lyster.
Hundreds of .people from the east seek
this place as a health resort , finding Its at
mosphere luxuriant ozone for all pulmonary
diseases. The water Is absolutely pure , It
having been tested by un analytical chemist
connected with tbo I'nlon Pacific railway ,

flro broke on yils at.lcrnopn In .tho east-wing
or flio Illinois state building. It was undoubtedly -
doubtedly of.-.lneemliury origin , but p'rompt
response on the part of the lire department
prevented damage to any great extent. The
chief danger from the ilro was In tbo prob
ability that It might extend to tlio art gallery -
lory , which Is now used as the storehouse for
the Columbian museum. Fears for the safety
of the art gallery were well grounded , for
early In the progress of the Ilro flying brands
alighted on its northeast dome and In a few
moments that portion of the building was
ablaze. Around the base of the bmall dome
at that corner of the art building Is n tarred
roof and some canvas , and upon this the
flames made rapid progress. Some guards ,
however , climbed to the roof , and , clearing
away the blazing canvas , throw It to the
ground. The flro on the roof was then
easily extinguished.
Joseph Ilallak , a fireman , fell from thereof
roof of iho Illinois building , but was not
seriously hurt. The Illinois building wan
sold recently for $1,050 , and as only the
staff was burned from about forty-five feet
on the cast wing the damage Is Inconuldcr-
