Arrival of the German Emperor at the Isle of Wight. CHEERS GIVEN FOR COLUMBUS CONFESSED TO TWO MURDERS. A Man Who Was Implicated in Noted Agrarian Crimes in Ireland. Loxpox, Aug. 1.—A man confined in prison in Glasgow has confessed to the authorities that he was implicated in the murder of Lord Lei- trim, who was shot and killed on April, 2, 1878, while driving near his lordship’s residence in county Derry, Ireland, The prisoner also stated that he was concerned in the killing of Lord Mountmorres at Rusheen, County Mayo, Ireland, September 25, 1880. He further says he was hired to assist the man who killed the informer James Carey, who was shot and ene ees tet zal th Africa, bya O'Donnell. i The prison commiseoners are carefully in- vestigating the story of the man, whom they have subjected to a most searching examina- yn, and aro endeavoring to secure proof of ents, ‘They refuse to divulge the prisoner's name or to furnish any information regarding him. None of the persons concerned in the mur- ders of Lord Leitrim and Lord Mountmor- res were ever caught. LORD LEITRIM'S MURDER. The first of the crimes to which the prisoner confesses to have been a party was committed April 2, 1878. On that dey Lord Leitrim, while Griving near Milford | on | the shore of roy Bay, was shot by persons’ lying fn ambush. His car driver was also killed, being struck in the face with a bali and his chest and heart being riddled with shot, and his clerk, who was also with him and was Killed, received two wounds in the head. A ostmortem examination showed that Lord ‘itrim’s skull was fractured and that the left side of his head contained many shot and was much battered. His lordship's left arm was also fractured in two places. His revolver had been taken from him and it was believed had been used against him. It was empty when found. A servant of his lordship named Kincaid testified before the coroner at Milford that after the first shots were fired Lord Leitrim stepped down from the car. He (Kin- caid) saw his master struggle with his murderers from a distance of 251 yards. Two shots were fired on the road after Lord Leitrim left the car. “I could see,” the witness said, “his white hair as he stood on the road, I could not sce whether he had lost hold of the reins before getting off the car. After I heard the last shots fired I saw a man taking up @ weapon to his lordship. There were then two men on the road with him behind the car.” He added: “It might be ten minutes before I got up, during which the struggle Insted. Tho far diver was lying on the reed dead when got up to where Lord Leitrim was. When I reached Lord Leitrim he was lying partly on his side with bis head in the water. He was I saw two men rowing a boat across Mulroy bay.” These created the suspicion that there were four assailants. The jury found a verdict of willful murder against some persons unknown. TRE MOUNTMORRES MURDER. ‘The other murdeg in which, according to his confession, the prisoner was implicated was that of Lord Mountmorres. Thia occurred at Rusheen near Ballinro, County M: ber 25, 1880. Lord Mountmorres Clonbur to make some purchases and left that town to return to his residence, Ebor- hall, about o'clock in the evening. At 9 o'clock he was found lying in the road with six bullet wounds, any one of which would have proved fatal. ‘He was carried to the house of one Hugh Flannigan, which was two or three hundred yards from the spot; but Flannigan, ‘although he was told’ that it was possible the man might still be alive, re- fused to grant his admission. Lord Mount- morres was a poor man, living on and by his estate, which was by no means extensive, and had become unpopular owing to his unwilling- ness or inability to reduce rents, He was also supposed to be ubout to issue eject- ment processes. To these causes he undoubtedly owed his death. If any doubt on that head could have existed the behavior of the peasantry to Lord Mountmorres’ unoffending widow and children would effectually have set it at rest. So strictly were they “boycotted” that it was not long before they had to leave Eborhall and take refuge in England, her majesty the queen having placed apartments in Hampton court palace at Lady Mountmorres’ ai At tho inquest a verdict of wilifal murder was returned against some person or persons unknown. Notwithstanding the fact that some arrests were made and that the lord lieutenant of Ireland offered a reward of £1,000 to any person who should within six’ months give information leading to the conviction of the murderers or any of them and free pardon to any person concerned in the crime other than the actual murderer in case of his giving such informa- tion as would lead to conviction the perpe- trators of the murder remained undiscovered. Spee RETALIATION ON CANADA. Sir John Thompson Said to Have Left for Washington. Orrawa, Oxr., Aug. 1.—From the highest official cirqles it is learned that the dominion government fully expects that President Har- rison will carry the retaliatory threat against Canada into effect as regards the use of the St. Mary's canal. ‘An official in high authority said that it was o matter of surprise to the government up to the present time. He asserts that President Har- rison has totally ignored the proposal which the dominion government submitted in June, by which cause of | com- int against, Canada for alleged imination the United States in the use of the dominion canals would be removed. Ho said if it did not intend ac- cepting the offer as a basis of settlement of the canal question it was difficult to see what his motive could bo in withholding his rejection from publication. ‘The fact that tho President has remained silent, it is asserted, leada to thi 0 belief here that the’ offer of the Canadian gov- ernment practically disposes of the case. ithough {tis added, for political reasons, President has withheld his affirmative ee Oxr., Aug. 1.—A special from Ottawa tothe Globe says: The cabinet at its vussed the Tone the ministers themsel for mi upon whether Great Britain will either indorse course already taken by the Ottawa govern- | ¥ @ stated, wore black coats; but he | had previously seen two men in gray coats, | which AFTER FOUR HUNDRED YEARS.

He was received by royal salutes from the ships in the harbor and from the forts ashore, the Spithead forts being the first to sound the thunder of welcome. All the vessels in the har- bor and in the Solent were decked with bunting and the vast number of small yachts which at this time of year ure to found cruising in the Isle of Wight waters lent animation to the scene. Wil- helm could be seen standing cn the bridge in semi-naval uniform directly the vessel entered the Solent. To all appearances he was in com- mand of the yacht, but this may have been only @ matter of form, as he had a Trinityhouse pilot on board. Dirictly on his arrival at Cowos, the yacht cast anchor and the Emperor, embarking on board his gig, was rowed smartly ashore. Thence he drove in one of the queen's carriages to Or- borne House, where his royal grandmother was awaiting him. Tonight the emperor will dine with the queen, a dinner being served in the banquet hall, grand room, which has recently been sumptu- ously decorated in oriental fashion. ‘Tomor- row, Tuesday, the emperor will be present at the annual house dinner of the royal yacht squadron at Cowes Castle, and daring the k he is expected to sail his own ht, the Meteor, during some of the most Important races,’ particularly that for the queen's cup. His stay is to be more or less of a private charactor and on Saturday, accord- ing to presont arrangements, he will return to Wilhelmshafen, ene ee IN WALL STREET TODAY.

Mr. Vest made a personal statement in refer- | ence to anussertion made by him in the Senate | on the 6th of July that the Arlington woolen mills had paid a dividend of 50 per cent in 1801 and which amertion hed been positively | contradicted in a note from Mr.Wrm. Whitman’ treasurer of the Arlington mills, that had been put in the Record last week by Mr. Allison. Mr. Whitman in this note stated that it was “absolutely false” that the Arlington mills bad paid 50 per cent dividend in 1891, and only paid 6 per cent; also that it was “absolutely false” that the Arlington works were in any way connected with a trust or that there had been strikes or troubles among the workmen. He (Mr. Vest) would undertake to show be- yond the supposition of a doubt that Mr. Whit. man's statement was uggestio falei, and ths it yas known to be false at the time it was made, It wns true that the Arlington mills had not “declared” a dividend | of 50 r cent in 1891, but | ithad declared a dividend of 6 per cent and | had then put $900,000 into their surplus. He | (Mr. Vest) demonstrated that the profits for the year 1891 were $932,809—equal to 0 per cent. | MR. ALLISON 8 REPLY. | Mr, Allison said that he had no knowledge | respecting the assets, liabilities or profits of the | Arlington mills. He was sure, however, that there was some rational and reasonable expla- nation of those newspaper extracts. They | must refer, he thought, to some other manu- | facturing establishment. He could not believe that Mr. Whitman of would have deliberately stated a falsehood, and asked him to have it put in the Record. So | far from showing that in 1891 the Arlington | ade $900,000 profits the report showed Allison contended) that that sum was an | ion of profits from the foundation of Mr. accumula the corporation. | Mr. Vest read from Mr. Whitman's report of March, 1890, us follows: “I have been your treasurer for a consecutive period of twenty years. Daring the period the average earnings have been 20 8-10 per cent on the capital. | The earnings last year were nearly three | andahalf times that of the year before, and there is every indication that the current year will be the most profitable onein the company’s | history After some further discussion the matter was allowed to drop. THE HOUSE. That esteemed journal—the Congressional Record—although published before midnight Saterday, could not be delivered in the House | today owing to a lack of appropriation to pay the measengers and drivers of the government printing office and others whose duty it is to transport the publication from the office to the Capitol. ‘he public gallery was well filled this morn- ing, principally by employes of the printing ouice, who are enjoying or bewailing, as the case may be, an enforced vacation. But in the | House iteelf the law was not so rigorously com- | plied with. The appropriation for the lighting of the Capitol and other public buildings is carried in the sundry civil bill, and, althongh the appropriations be lopsed, the cloak rooms were illuminated as of yore. Xo QUORUM, Before the reading of the journal Mr. Hop- kins (IIL) suggested that there was no quorum present and the Speaker directed the clerk to call the roll. One hundred and forty-eix mem- bers responded to their names, this being | twenty-one short of a quorum. On motion of Mr. McMillin (Tenn.) a call of the House was ordered. Anexact quorum—167 members—; and further proceedings under the were dispensed with. ‘The journal was read and ap- proved. A POINT OF ORDER.

Chairman Edson was notified today at the War Department that the decision in this matter hud been revérsed. corps dur- The Secretary had decided to grant the use of the reservation for the purposes as re- quested by the citizens’ cdmmittee, Mr. On Sat- letter to the -y stating the case with a good deal of force, and explaining that as the appro- priation for the encampment was not made until the Mth of July it was impossible for the committee to make definite plans and therefore they were unable to apply for permission for the use of the grounds at an earlier date. Jir. Edson added that the committee would endeavor to repair any damage that the grase on hite Lot might suffer, and te the grounds in the condition they are when the committee as- * control. He urged the Secretary, for md other reafons, to allow the ase of oses named. eded to by the Secretary and he will have the thanks of all those inter- ested in the success of the coming encampment. COL. ELNST AGREES, urday Edson wrote a The reunion committee bas explained to Col. Ernst that they only wish to erect shelter tents and that sleeping quarters will not be put up, consequently no trenching will be necessary.” In view of this statement and the committee having represented thst very little damage will be done to the grounds Col, Ernst has withdrawn his opposition. THE SENATE ACCEPTS. There was nothing dubious or slow in the action of th con the invitation extended it to be represented ig the Grand Army festivities in September. Chairmen John Joy Edson forwarded the invitation this morning and it was placed before the Senate this after- mn. Immediately thereafter Senator Hawley offered the following resolution, which was agreed to: “Resolved, That the invitation addressed to the Senate by the citizens’ executive committee of Washington having in charge the reception of the national encampment of the Grand Army of the Kepublic, commencing on September 20 next, atking this body to be represented in said reception, is hereby accepted, and the Vice President is hereby authorized ‘to name a com- mitiee of five Senators for that purpose. Mention of the encampment brought Sens- tor Sherman to his feet, who eaid he understood t the executive committee had been informed t the White Lot was not available for the uses of the veterans who desired to hold reunions thereon. He was about to offer a resolution ing the authorities to recede from the position taken when Senator Proctor stepped up and informed the Ohioan that that trouble had béen satisfactorily adjusted. The old sol- diers might reunite on the White Lot just as much as they pleased, So Senator Sherman let the matter drop. COMMITTEE ON REUNIONS, The reunion committee of the Grand Army encampment held meeting in the National Tribune building Sat- urday night and considered details of their plans for holding the reunion. A subcom- mittee on tents reported that four tents from Baltimore have been ob- tained that will shelter nearly 1,000 people; | another immense tent from St. Louis will hold | | 4,000 people. Quartermaster General Batch- | | elder of the army has promised to furnish 1,000 tents, It is proposed to utilize the Sons of Veterans as guards, orderlies and escorts of honor at the reunion. The organization willl hold its reunion in Washington simultaneously with the encampment and will camp south of the State Department, ‘To Investigate District Corporations.
