CHARGES AGAINST PARNELL. Accused by a Tory Paper of Ll-treat- ing One of His Tenants. DvsuN, May 26.—The Express (conservative) accuses Mr. Parnell of cruelty to one of bis Avon- dale tenants named Kennedy. The paper says that, although Mr. Kennedy has been 8 tenant on ‘the Irish leader's estate for nine years, Mr. Parnell has coerced him into ex- changing the farm he hadoccupied and improved for a tract of inferior land. In addition to this arnell, the Express says, has refused to make eS per cent reduction in rent requested by Mr. Kennedy, and has sued him for a year’s rent, due only since April. ——— THE PLOT AGAINST THE SULTAN. ‘The Conspirators said to Have Contem- plated Assassination. BUcwaxest, May 26.—A plot to assassinate the Sultan of Turkey was discovered last Thursday. Extraordinary efforts have been made to conceal the discovery from the public. The effect of the lot on the Sultan 1s visible in the terror he ex- hibits. He made his usual weekly visit to the Mosque hurriedly instead of with the customary slow and pompous parade.

They bad sparred for position for & lew seconds when slugging began. Duffy gave ‘Smith a terrible undercut under the ear, knocking him fiat on his face. At the end of ten seconds ‘Smith failed to respond, and the referee declared Dufly the winner. Smith was carried out and did not revive for several minutes. Talk of Reducing Iron Worker's Wages. HEAVY IMPORTATIONS OF FOREIGN IRON SAID TO BE AFFECTING THE HOME TRADE. Prrrsscxé, May 26.—An important meeting of the Western'Iron Association was held yesterday; every important mill in the organization was represented. ‘The object was to discuss wages for hext year. It was dificult to obtain information on the deliberations of the iron masters, but it Was definitely learned that the scale will not be as quickly arranged as last year. A discussion on trade showed that unusually eye importations of foreign material have greatly affected the in- dustry in this country. If affairs continue as during the past few weeks it will be impossible to pay the present scale of wages, 1 wasurgued. The amalagamated association, as already stated, will demand the scale of 1883-’4, which 1s practi- cally an increase of 10 per cent. No conference committee was appointed, the matter being lett to members in the different di: ts, pied A Murder and Not a Suicide. Crcaco, May 26.—A special from Brazil, Ind.
