A U. 8. MINISTER WHO “por MIS FOOT IN Tr.” Lord Sackville is not the Grst indisoreet diplo- mat, and it is recorded that a minister from LORD SACKVILLE’S RESPONSE. The State Department Will Not Give it Out for Publication. No new developments in the Lord Sackville matter have been made public to-day. Lord Sackville’s response formally acknowledging the receipt of Secretary Bayard’s letter of ex- clusion has been received at the State Depart- ment. It is as brief and formal as possible, but the Department will not make known ite language. Nothing definite can be learned as to the date of Lord Sackville’s departure, and it is a matter of doubt whether the Department will receive any announcement of the fact when he leaves. . LORD SACKVILLE GOING HOME, The London Press Association announces that Lord Sackville comes to England imme- diately on leave of absence; that he has im- portant business to attend to in connection with the are estates, and that he will not return to"Washington. THE IRISH VOTE. The published interviews with British-Amer- icans or Englishmen who have been natural- ized, denouncing the President, are attracting attention here at the national capital. Not lon ago it was announced that in Massachusetts and other Eastern states the naturalized English- men were organizing to support Cleveland, and the fact that they are now condemning him seems to please the democrats. The general run of comment indicates very plainly that the Irish vote is the valuable stake at issue in this canvass, and a common ex] ion among democrats is that if they can hold their vote their success is Serared. They seem to feel that the more English opposition the President encounters the surer he is of the Irish vote. WHAT ENGLISHMEN BAY, A Stas reporter called upon Mr. C. F. Benja- min, prominent member and former presi- dent of the St. George (English) Society of this city, to obtain his views about the Sackville matter, “I think,” he said, “the action is pre- mature, The British government ought to have been given more time, more opportunity for action.” Mr. Sale remarked incidentally that Mr. Dawson, who prepares the republican campaign text books, also an Englishman, Pa oe the course of the President, as he thinks Minister West ought to have been dismissed. POSITION OF REPUBLICANS. The point in the controversy dwelt upon by republicans and which they contend is the real feature is that the desire of England for the success of the democratic party has been dem- onstrated; that England is known to be en- tirely selfish in all that pertains to other coun- tries, and her interest in Cleveland and the democracy is that their policy would eventually tugn our methods over to the English. The republicans declare that this point has been too well decided to be done away with, LORD SACKVILLE AT THE RACES, Lord Sackville was a noticeable figure at the races yesterday, and did not appear to be in the least ruffled at the summary dismissal from official position he had received from the Pres- ident the night before. He was the target for thousands of eyes, and bore the scrutiny and some of the remafks, which he must have heard, and some of which were not particu- larly complimentary, with the most perfect coolness. He walked up and down the quarter stretch, chatting with acquaintances, and ap- pearing to thoroughly enjoy the spo: There has been only one change at the lega- tion residence that can be observed. Lord Sackville was in the habit of sitting at a cer- tain window, looking out upon Connecticut avenue, and the passer-by could see his bald- head just rising above what appeared to be a small desk, or possibly a dispatch-box. Those who went by the house frequently had come to regard the minister as a familiar figure at the window. Since the publication of his unfortu- nate letter, public curiosity in regard to the late British minister has naturally been greatly excited, and the number of people who have (ce the legation just to catch a glimpse of ‘im has been very large. Some of these have stopped at the railing in front of the house and ‘stared rudely at the window, and some who de- sired a nearer view, have gone up the carriage- way and out the side gate. ord Sackville has evidently been annoyed by this-exhibition of curiosity, and so a curtain has been drawn down the window, which effec- tually shuts out everything from view. TO THE TOP OF THE MONUMENT. Nearly Ten Thousand People Went Up ain October—The Elevator Running. The Washington monument continues to draw good houses. During the time it was open in the month of October, beginning with the afternoon of Tuesday, the 9th, 7,482 per- sons were carried up in the elevator, and 2,354 walked up, making a total of 9,836, who as- cended the shaft. Some difficulty was experi- enced with the machinery on Monday, and the elevator was stopped on that day and on Tues- day. Yesterday morning, however, it was started again through the vigorous efforts of Colonel Wilson, and is now making its regular trips to the cap-stone. It was found, during the month, that the visitors who were allowed to walk up the shaft were committing OCCASIONAL ACTS OF VANDALISM, such as writing their names on the walls and in other ways defacing the interior of the shaft, and for a day or two the custodian prevented any persons from aseending the shaft by this means. Col. Wilson, however, gave orders to let any well-behaved and apparantly responsi- ble visitors walk up, and they are now ascend- ing the shaft by the stairways as before. Col. Wilson has received a large number of ANONYMOUS COMMUNICATIONS, criticising the management of affairs at the shaft and making various suggestions. He haa paid no attention to them for two reasons: First, because they are anonymous, and-ngain because he is already doing all in his power for the comfort and convenience of visitors. One of these letters suggested that a plank walk be laid from 14th street to the base 83 the 80 that pedestrians need not cover themselves with mud in getting tothe Monument. This cannot be done at present, since the work of babting the mound at the base of the Monument is under way and carts and wagons are passing in every direction continually, while the constant changing of the grade would necessitate an al- most endless work on such a walk. There are no funds on hand at present for such a purpose. The Attorney-General’s Estimates. VARIOUS ITEMS OF GENERAL AND LOCAL IN- TEREST.

The Democrats Very Hopeful of Gaining Three Next Week. Special Dispatch to the Evexixe Stan, Inpranapouis, Nov. 1.—In Indiana there are thirteen congressional districts, now repre- sented by seven republican and six democratic Congressmen. Previous to the last election the democrats had a majority, and it is possi- ble that in the coming one they will again ob- tain the lead. They hope to replace Represen- tatives Hovey, Johnston and White, of the first, eighth and twelfth districts, with democrats, and are making a hard fight in two other dis- tricts, the tenth and eleventh, in the latter of which particularly they are inclined to be hope- ful. The state was redistricted in ‘84, and comparisons by districts with the vote of that year are not possible, but the total yote of the counties now included in the first three districts named shows in each a demo- atic majority. The party claims it lost the presentatives of these districts in ’84 through local disaffections. The counties now compris- ing the first district gave the democrats a ma- jority of $89 in '84. In the eighth they had 753, and in the twelfth 2,829. The election of 86 reversed these figures, and Hovey was elected in the first district by 1,357. Johnston carried eee by 1,097, and White the twelfth by a This year the internal dissensions to these democratic losses do not ap] to ex- ist. Judge Parrott, of Evansville, in the first district, is making a strong fight, that ses to heal the breach of 86, when Major Menzies, Hovey’s son-in-law, lead off a strong demo- cratic faction that supported the republican nominee. In the Terre Haute district, the eighth, the democrats lost ay through the personal unpopularity of Johnston, against whom a democratic contingent, headed by the party organ, the Terre Haute Gazette, made a ight. The present democratic _candi- date, Brookshire, has the united sup- port of his party, with the possibility of reasserting the ‘84 majority of over 1,000. The democratic loss in the twelfth district, Fort Wayne, in ’86 is attributed to the exppect —— White, the Knight of Labor candidate, y many who were opposed to Judge Lowry, the re; democratic nominee, It is a united party each of these districts that makes the lemocrats sanguine of securing at least three new Congressmen. They claim, also, the elev- enth, Steele's, district as very close and doubt- ful. The hope of carrying the district appears to have no other foundation than the narrow republican majority, which is about 400. The Prediction of success in the tenth, or Logans- Port district, is made by only a few of the most enthusiastic democrats. The other districts promise to make the fight on the old lines along with the state and electoral tickets, ue amas aes O'SHEA LIVENS THINGS UP. | His Testimony in the Parnell Inquiry Causes a Sensation. Special Cable Dispatch to Tug EveNine Star. Lonpon, Nov. 1,—At last the proceedings of the Parnell commission took a lively turn yes- terday, owing to the determination of the Times 80 postpone the further reading of monotonous speeches by half-educated constabulary re- porters and to put Capt. O'Shea on the witness stand at once. O’Shea formerly was one of the smartest looking men in the house of com- mon, and was credited with a good deal of talent, but little capacity for work, being rather aman of pleasure than a politician. He is connected with several wealthy families and married one of three beautiful sisters. The other two were married, one to Gen. Sir Evelyn |. Wood and the other to Gen. Steel. O'SHEA NERVOUS AND ABASHED. O'Shea, yesterday, as he paced up and down the lobby of the court with all the appearance of nervous dread, was hardly recognizable as the former member for Clare. He was pale and thin, and had shaved off his mutton-chop whiskers which he formerly wore. He was fashionably dressed, with a frock coat, a pearl scarf A anda number of finger rings. He looked somewhat abashed as he stepped for- ward to give his evidence. Parnell watched him eagerly. O'Shea never once looked at Attorney-General Webster while the latter ex- amined , the apparent reason being that he wished to avoid facing Parnell, who sat at the solicitors’ table in the line of sight. HE SUDDENLY GROWS DEFIANT. When Sir Charles Russell began his cross-ex- amination O'Shea turned round and became almost defiant. Sir Chas, Russell was evidently disconcerted by having the witness spring upon him, and his unrivalled skill in cross-examina- tion was less apparent than usual. The man- ner in which he walked into a carefully ioe trap when he succeeded in elicit *Shea Harcourt’s suggesting the destruction of certain documenta caused for the first time hearty laughter in court.

A Fight Between McCabe and Fianni- gan that Disgusted Spectators. New Yorx, Nov. 1.—Tommy Flannigan, of Cincinnati, and Pete McCabe, of Albany, fought a desperate battle lasting ten rounds, for a urse of $300, in a dining-room of a hotel on Bity Island. The battle was witnessed by thirty club men, who paid $10 a head for the privi- lege. Flannagan was declared the victor at the close of the tenth round, after almost demolish- ing McCabe, who proved himself as game a man as ever toed the scratch. DRANK AMMONIA INSTEAD OF BRANDY. An accident occurred in the sixth round which might have terminated in the death of one of the —. McCabe, while — rubbed down, asked his seconds for a drink 0! brandy. One of his attendants banded him a bottle containing ammonia instead of the brandy bottle. McCabe raised the stuff to his mouth and took a swallow. He set upa yell, dropped to the floor and rolled around in in- tense agony. On the call of time for the seventh round McCabe was upon his feet, and continued to fight, although his face bore an agonizing look that told of the pain the fellow was enduring. McCabe is twenty-two years old, 5 feet 6 inches high and weighs 128 pounds. nna- gan is the same age, same height, and weighs 130 pounds, A SIGHT THAT SICKENED THE SPECTATORS. The fighting was of the hurricane order, and was bloody from start to finish. Flannagan showered blow after blow on the face and neck of his opponent, while in return he received terrible punishment about the chest and face. McCabe was awarded first blood and first knock down in the second round. The battle became 80 wicked toward the finish that many of the spectators turned their heads away to avoid the sickening sight. At the end of the battle McCabe's left eye was To, closed, and a cheek bone was lai archon a two- inch cut.

A German Paper Thinks it is not Great- ly to Our Credit. Beatty, Nov. 1.—The National Zeitung says: “The frivolity with which international diffi- culties are provoked by political factions in America is jially evident in the Sackville affair, After the republicans set a trap to catch a strikingly harmless English minister and discredit Mr. Cleveland as # candidate of the foreigner, Mr. Cleveland himself tries to cross this maneuver by exaggerated seve against Lord Sackville. This conduct appe comical from the fact that Mr. Cleveland docs not leave England in doubt as to his aim in so acting. This kind of thing is scarcely caleu- lated to raise the reputation of the American republic.” The Incident Considered Closed. AMERICANS IX LONDON WANT LORD DUFFERIN SENT HERE AS MINISTER. Lonpon, Nov. 1.—It is stated that in govern- ment circles it is considered that the Sackville incident is ended. Lord Sackville has not yet advised the government as to the date of hie return. It is possible that some time may elapse before a new minister is sent to Wash- ington. American circles here are anxious that Lord Dufferin should be appointed to the post, ANOTHER ENGLISH OPINION. Loxvon, Nov. 1.—The St. James’ Gazette, re- ferrimg to the action of the United States Gov- ernment in the case of Lord Sackville, sa: “It would be most creditable to English good sense if Secretary Bayard’s insolence is treated with contempt.

Respectable Americans, who stand in neither with Mr. Cleveland nor Mr. Harri- son, are nearly as much disgusted with the affair as _— men are,” The Pail Mali Gazette expresses the hope that the ire of the democratic wire-pullers is now assuaged. Mr. Cleveland could do no more without throwing Lord Sackville into jail. What silly business it is all jthrough. 6 British consolation is that the folly of ident Cleve- land eclipses Lord Sackville’s indiscretion. It is one thing to be tricked into making a slip in eae but it is quite a different thing to plunge eadlong into an abyss of folly and ill-temper, We owe Mr. Cleveland thanks for showing that the silliest man in Washington was not born im England. onetime Growing Out of the Late Strike.
