TWO ANGRY CANADIAN LEGISLATORS A Question of Veracity Between Parnell and Davitt. LEAVING THE BAD LANDS. SINKING OF THE NEPAUL. A Big East India Steamer Wrecked Off the British Coast. Loxpox,Dec.11.—The Peninsular and Oriental Steamship Company's mail steamer Nepaul last night stranded at the Plym@nth breakwater during the prevalence of a dense fog. Some of the passengers were immediately landed by a tug which went out to the vessel's relief. Others elected to remain on board the steamer in the | hope that she would speedily be floated into deep water. a Government and private’ tugs were hurried to the assistance of the big Indiaman. The t lines were attached and ata given signal simultaneous effort was made to drag the Ne- paul ont into high water. The effort proved abortive and a few moments later the ship was found to be rapidly taking in water through a eat rent in her bottom and further efforts to loat her were abandoned as hopeless. The tugs then took off those passengers who bad at first declined to abandon the ship. During the entire time from the stranding of the Nepanl up to the moment of their being taken off by the relief boats the conduct of the Lascar sailors was diegraceful and cowardly in the extreme. They seemed to be seized with a wild, unreasoning panic. Time after time the officers and white milors of the Nepanl were obliged to beat the Laecars back from the boats, and when the decixion had been tinally reached to abandon the steamer the European officers, seamen and passengers wore obliged to unite in driving the Lascarsaway to make it possible for the women and children to reach the boats. Not a life was lost. The specie, baggage and government and private dispatches “were also saved. The cargo, which consists of 1.800 chests of tea, 1,500 bags of wheat, 1,000 bags of rice, indigo, jute, &c., is doomed, the rapid inrush- ing of the’ water having made any attempt to save it impossible. qo ite cargo was insured in Lloyds for £100,- The Xepaul was bound from Calcutta for Lon- don and had stopped at Marseilles, FORBIDDEN TO OWN LAND. A Prohibition on Aliens That Exercises the Bermudans, Hauirax, N.S., Dec. 11.—Advices from the Bermudas report that the people of those islands are greatly exercised over the recent refusal of the imperial government in defiance of colonial laws which have existed for a third of a century to allow aliens even when natural- ized to own real estate on the islands. The Bermuda legislature hax just adopted a memo- rial to the queen protesting against this action and pointing out that as all the privileges of citizenship in Bermuda rest upon the owner- ship of real estate, there is no other induce- ment to become naturalized. ‘The legislature says itis impossible to exaggerate the disas- trous results of the continuation of such a policy. ——— THE HEBREW PERSECUTIONS, Last Night's London Meeting Expected to Prove Effective. Loxpox, Dec. 11.—Last night's great meet- ing at the Guild Hall—great in point of num- bers and no less so in point of influential repre- sentativeness—could hardly fail to have some effect in modifying Russian persecution of the Hebrews if any expression of foreign feeling were capable of making an impression upow the czar and his advisors. The proceedings were of an interesting nature, and facts were lnid before the meeting showing intolerable abuses perpetrated by Russian officials and the utter misery to which the present system has reduced millions of the Hebrews. Adler stated the case of his coreli ‘The action of the meeting will be presented to the czar by the British ambassador at St. Petersburg. It was stated that a large num- ber of Hebrews had recently sought to acquire the same rghts as Christians by pretending to be converted to the Christian religion, which course would ordinarily have enabled them to carry on business without restriction, employ- ing other members of their families to assist them, the others adhering to the Hebrew re- ligion. But by a recent decree even this outlet has been practically closed, it being provided that no Hebrew shall be accepted us 4 convert unless his wife and children, brothers, sisters and parents become Christians with bim. Neither cana Hebrew become either Catholic or Protestant. He must join the Greek or or- thodox church, thereby enabling the authori- ties to keep an eye on him. : a TWO ANGRY STATESMEN, A Disgracefal Scene in Canada’s Legislative Halls, Quenec, Dec. 11.—A disgraceful scene was enacted in the legislature yesterday before the doors were opened. Mr. Mercier, the premier, made some remarks about a private document which had been presented to him by the oppo- sition. His remarks were so evidently personal that Mr. Leblane rose and asked whether he was referred to. The premier acknowl that he referred to Mr. Leblanc and the quar- rel between the two became hot. Mr. Leblanc in reply referred toa recent publication when the premier was charged by @ certain news ‘per with being under the influence of liquor. Fitts maddened Sir. Mercier, who sprang tb his feet and offered to go onteide and settle the matter. Mr. Leblanc stepped forward as if to meet the premier in the middle of the floor, but some one of his friends interfered and re- strained him. When the doors were finally opened the members were so excited that no business could be done. patceteo Tae DAVITT CONTRADICTS PARNELL, He Claims the Latter Authorized Him to Pro- claim His Innocence. ‘Dunlap's Cable Di spatch to The Evening Star, Lonpon, Dec. 11.—Michael Davitt was found this morning busily engaged in preparing a reply to the interview with Mr. Parnell pub- lished on Wednesday in New York ahd cabled here.

He sent @ very intelli- gent negro to Hayti as minister. “The negroes understand the Farmers’ Al- liance movement. They appreciate the ad- vantage it offers them.
