Sixty-taree prisoners answered roll call in the Police Court this morning, and the cells set apart for them were more than comfortably filled, The fact that they were in such yn- comfortable quarters did not appear to affect thetr happiness, for they indulged in song and pleasant chatting and were happier than many of those who were on the outside of the bars. | children appeared in the | Men, women an fire: procession and anewered charges of violat- ang the ipal ordmances.

Com espondence of The Evening Star. Hanrrr’s Ferry, W. Va., January 29, 1893, This morning there are no signs of « flood here. The weather is colder than it has been for several days and it is feared that the ice Will again become solid. During the past three days the warm weather has carried off nearly | all the snow from the mountains and the wind had cut the ice so much that a general breaking up was looked for not later than tomorrow had no change in the weather occurred. There has been comparatively little snow in this imme- diate vicinity, and, therefore, it took but a short spell of warm weather to clear it from the mountains. Here and there a small pile of drift mow is to be seen on the side of the mountains, but there is not enough of it left to help swell the rivers. NO SIONS OF A FLOOD YET. While there are no outward appearances of a flood those owning property along the low lands of the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers are get- ting ready to take away their portable goods should the crash come, and even those who are not so near the water's edge are for the worst. The large amount of ice in both rivers is looked upon as rons, and it is feared that a breakup, followed by the moving of the ice, might do some damage to the railroa: bridge as well as to other property. ‘The ice in the Potomac avove here is said to be as thick as thirty-six inches in places, while it will ave fully twenty-four inches. This bas been the heaviest freeze that has occurred here in many years, the oldest inhabitants saying they never before saw anything to equal it. A hannel has been kept open across the Shenan- doah river for the ferry running from the town across to Loudoun Heights. This has been used by the farmers down the other side who bring their products here and to the town above, but the ice bordering on the channel has been #0 thick that the wagons have been crossing and avoiding the payment of toll, The work of reconstructing the bridge which was carried away by the flood in 1889 was begun several weeks ago. but owing to the cold weather it had be abandoned, and today workmen are en- gaged in removing the scaffolding and taking it to the ground above until the flood danger is passed. A BIG CROP OF ICE GATHERED. ‘The large pulp mills above here shut down some time ago on account of the severe eather and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company has gathered several hundred tons of ice from Lake Quigley, which supplies the mill power. The i as clear as crystal and its thickness averaged nearly two feet. The canal water has been drawn off since before the cold weather, but there is a solid bed of ice in it now and a freshet, it is feared, would put the water- way beyond repsir. Most of the boats are in places of safety and it is thought there wouid not be so many of them destroyed as there were during the last flood. Below here, at Brunswick, early last week a six-horse team drawing « load of wheat crossed the river on the ice and reached the Maryland side without erashing through into the water. Up in the Shenandoah valley, in the vicinity of Strasburg and Winchester, the fall of snow has been heavier than im this neighborhood | and plenty of it remains on the mountain sides don the farm land, and when the melting begins in earnest it will help to rell the river. A WARM RAIN WOULD MAKE TROUBLE. Awarm rain continuing several days, it is thought, is the only thing that will cause a freshet. The warm weather during the past week not only carried away the snow from the mountains, but it also pat a supply of water on the ice and started the rotting process. The ice became so rotten that in several places breaks were noticeable, and it only ated a ewiftcurrent to break the ice from shore to shore. This, however, was imposmble because of the low water in both rivers. The water has been extremely low for this season of the year and up to this morning showed no signs of ris- ing. Mr. G. R. Marquette, the operator, in the empioy of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. is in communication with the signal office and keeping them advised of the condition of affai: along the river front. Dr. P. H. Cavalier, the druggist, on the main street, bas been in business here for a number of years and has ed occasion to take special notice of the condition of the river. le has heen watching the ice and suow and studying the matter carefully. and from his observations be thinks there will be no food unless there is a warm rain soon, and then he thinks ‘t will have to last some time to cause a flood. AN EXPERIENCE OF FOUR YEARS AGo. During the flood four years ago he said the Water was higher than it ever was before. Then there was a rise of thirty-six feet in the river and there was six feet of water in his store. When the water got in the street he had a scow tied to his house to use incase of an emergency. His chi'd-en had been sent up to Bolivar Heights and his wife remained in the house until the water covered the floors. Thén she was taken across the street on the seow. His brother-in-law was there with him until late Saturday night. when he, too, decitied to leave, as he could not swim. mained in the store until the water was up to his waist end then he had to go to the ‘upper stories of the house, where he had stored most e ou the Shenandoah river has weakened during the past three days that the teams can no longer cross on it and the ferry- boat is again doing business.

CONTEST IN THE LORDS. Unfortunately, Kimberly is not a match for Salisbury. The ex-premier is a powerful de- bater, a cunning wire puller and a fighter who never admits defeat until his antagonist has him literally by the throat. Kimberly is eloquent, but he is not a politician in the sense that Salisbury Present arrangements are that Mr. Gladstone will personally present the home rule bill to the commons, accompanied by, the usual explana- tory adiress. ‘The measure will grant an Irish parliament, conirol of the constabulary, control of taxation, under guarantees that Ireiand will supply about one-twentieth of the imperial budget, but not an autonomy similar to that enjoyed ‘by Can- ada.

With the aristocracy and landed in- terests, as well as royalty, secretly in opposi- tion, Mr. Gladstone has the greatest fight of his life before him. With Mr. alfour as tory leader in the com- mons, Mr. Gladstone is assured of the support of tl ellite wing of the Irish representa- tion, for they will never agree to anything that the ex-chief secretary wants. Balfour is the Dest hated man in public life at this moment. Balfour's thunder will be stolen to some ex- tent by the fact that Gladstone will insist on safeguarding the royal veto prerogative on im- portant questions passed by the parliament on College Green. Mr. William O'Brien is said to be opposed to this clause in the bill and wil seek to haxe it rejected. He is said to be the only member from Ireland who will object to it. Apropos of Mir. O'Brien, it may be said that his father-in-law, Banker Raffalovitch, has offered to pay the costs awarded to Lord Salis- bury in the Bolton libel suits in order to avert the bankruptcy of O'Brien, which will disqualify him for the commons. Raffalovitch has already paid Lord Salisbury’s original claim. WHAT THE BILL CONTAINS. jopsis of the act hus been given out, which declares that there shall be established a legislature consisting of the queen and an Irish legislative body, empowered to make, amend and repeal laws for the peace, order and good government of Ireland. ‘The power to enact laws on the following subjects is retained by the imperial parliament: ‘The status or dignity of the crown, or the succession tothe crown, or rezency ; the uiaking of war or Peace. ‘The army, navy, inilitia, volunteers or other val forces, or the defense of the reali. other relations with foreign states, or fhe lations between the various parts of fer nna: jomsins. cies oF “ties of honor, prize or booty of war, offenses against the law of nations, or offenses com uitted in violation of any treaty made or herealter to Ue made between lier mnaesty atid any forelzn stata, ‘Offenses committed on the high seas, treason, alien- age, oruaturallzation, trade, navigation or «uarai- tine. thie postal and telegraph service, except as bi afterin this actinentionga ith respect to the transiuis- Pla letters and celerams ta Trelands beacons jolie oF nea marks: e coinawe, the value of foreign money. legal ten- ror Welkhts and measures IRISH PARLIAMENT RESTRICTED. ‘The Irish legislature is restricted from pass- ing any law respecting the establishment of religion, ¢r prohibiting the free exercise theresf, or conferring any privliege or imposing an; Aisability on account of religious belie. = Itcannot impair, withouteither the leave of her majesty in council first obtained on an address presented by the legislative body of Ireland, or the consent of the corporation interested, the rights. property or privileges of any existing corporation incorporated by royal charter or local and general act of parliament, or from enacting any legislation changing the terms of the home rule act, except in so far as the act is declared to be alterable by the Irish legislature, ROYAL VETO CLAUSE. ‘The queen retains the same prerogatives with respect to summoning, proroguing and di solving the Iris legislative body as she has with respect to. the imperial parliament.

The bill of 1893 provides that the legislative body shall consist of # first and second order, but instead of providing that the orders shall deliberate together. ax in the bill of 1896, provides that they shall sit and vote separatel) thns constituting two distinct houses of 1 loginiature. if the resuit of the voting brings the two orders into collision then the question at issue is to be referred toa joint committee of both houses. If the question still remains unde- cided, through inebility to agree, then the estion at issue may be referred to the people. The new bill thus provides for a popular refer- endum. ‘The tenth clause substantially provides, as in 1886, that the upper house, or first order, shall include 103 members, 75 elective and 28 peerage members. The elective members are to be d of property; if real estate, or partly real and pertonal, bringing in an income of at. least £200 a year: or, if only personal, then bringing ‘the same income, or being of the capital value of £4,000 or upward, free of all charges.

The term of the elective members of the first order is ten years, thirty-seven or thirty-eight to retire every fifth year. The peers are to be the twenty-eight Irish representative peers. ‘The peerage re tation in the first order is to last for not longer than thirty years from the appointed day of organization, when the places of all members are to be vacated. ‘The second legislative body is to conmst of 204 members, to be chosen by existing constitu- encies in Ireland, two py each constituency with the exception of the city of Cork, which is to be divided in two divisions and two members chosen by each diviaion. a important new clause provides that 1 members of the im parliament shal be ing constituencies. ‘These members shail vote on sil questions reserved by such dealers is considered an advantage and | the imperial parliament from the Irish legis — ee ee wee never a menace to society.

The Dublin metropolitan police is tocontinue subject to the lord lieutenant for « period of five years, or until the Irish administration will guarantee that an adequate local police syste: | has been organized.

LOVELL D: IES, He Denounces the Charges Against Him as False and Malicious. John W. Lovell, who organized the United States Book Company, has been ousted from the vice presidency, and Lawrence and Warner, the lawyers of 120 Broadway, have been in- structed to bring action against him, Edward Lenge resigned his office as treasurer of the concern, and the state of affairs developed at the meeting on Saturday shows that there is much bad feeling among the publishers, whose “combine” in July, 1870, with a capital of $3,250,000, was regarded as a “cheap novel tors, whose claims aggregate over $300,000, have begun proceedings against the company. At the meeting Saturday the cided to declare the office of Vi Lovell vacant, because of bis non-attendance at the meetings end for other reasons. Mr. Forbes was elected in his place as vice presi- dent and general manager. Tn instructing the Inwyers to bring various actions against the ex- vice president, the directors charged mal feasance in office. and blamed the present con- dition of the corporation upon Mr. Lovell. Horace K. Thurber is the president of the com- pan “ lirectors de- President W. Gould has been appointed receiver. . Lovell, after reading the charges made against him, sent the following card to the newspapers: he malicious and unfounded statements h have appeared in the press in regard to connectiy with the United States Book absolute and prompt denial F part.

Crounze has cent a special message to the Nebraska legislature explaining the counection of the state banking board with the failure of the Capitol National Bank. After steting the fact that $265,000 in state funds were on de- posit, and how the bank’s bonds were approved, the governor saya: “It transpires that the bank's books have been manipulated so to deceive the most vi lant bank examiner, und would have defied detection even if the state had undertaken by experts to investigate its solvency for itself. I am credibly informed the further investigation and examination of the record will disclote the fact that the state treasurer, Bartley, has been imposed upon, and that the certificates of de- posit which were turned oggr to him by his pre- Aecessoein ofice were fratidulent evidence of money on deposit which bad no existence. “{t is impossible at this time to ascertain whether the feilure of the bank will involve the state in any loss, ‘The assets, however, ‘of over $900,000, as represented by the books, together with. the assessments, for which the stockholders are liable, furnish a reasonable guaranty that the stato’s loss should not be great ultimately. It remains for the lature to take such action to ascertain the exact condition of the bank and to fix the responsibilities of the’ parties involved in the transaction. It is an open question whether the bondsmen of ex-Treas- urer Hill were released whan he paid over to his successor the fraudulent certificates of de- posit and whether the new treasurer assumed any responsibility by reason of his assumption of ofice.” A Fortune for an Invention. It is reported that O. 8. Kelley of Spring- field, Ohio, bas sold his patent on the overhead electric trolley system to the General Electric Company of New York city. A friend of Mr. Kelley states that the rumor is true, and that Mr. Kelley has received a sum running up into the hundreds of thousands for his patent.
