THE OMAHA DalLy BEE SEVENTEENTH YEAR. OMAHA. FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 15. 1887, NUMBER 27 POINTING OUT ITS DEFECTS® Lord Randolph Churehill Disseots the Land Bill in the Commons. GOSCHEN DEFENDS THE BILL. Passed Second Reading Without Di- vision—The Fall of the Bastile Celebrated Without Dis- turbance. The Irish Land Bill Loxnoy, July 14.—In the commons this evening Lord Randolph Churchill, resuming the debate on the land bill, objected to Can- nerman’s amendment that the bill be re. Jjected only as raising a false issue, The government had been forced to offer a tem- porary land measura before the session closed. Proceeding to examine the clause of the bill, he supported Dillon’s eriticisms on the restrictions ot lease holders, a clause of which he lioped the government would at- tend. He did not see that the tenantry would deriva any beneiit from the clause deaiing with evictions. |Parnellite Cheers.| He would fear to Intrust Irish agents and advisers of the landlords with the powers confered upon them under that clause. It was not within the limit of physl- eal possibilities to deal with the clause this session. The bill must be lichtened by throwing it over. ‘I'he bankruptcy clause was equally objectionable. If the govern- ment, with the Irish members, would agree to deal with arrears by the division of judi- cinl rents instead of bankrupicy clauses, the bill would be deprived of Its worst features and become aceeptable to the country. Sir William Vernon Harcourt congratu- lated Lord Randolph on his clear opposition of the defocts of the bill. If Lord Rand- olpl’s specch led to a new development of the bill the houss would have no difficulty in passing it. (Goschen, chancellor of the exchequer, speaking In behalt of the government, said that wirdle they would not attempt to dis- guise the difficulty of tueir task, they would refuse but a single vote by making any con- cossions against their convictions. Dwell- ing on the temporary character of the bill, he sald tihe wovernment would do their best to meet the views of the zentlemen on the other side in recard to the leaseholders’ clauso, but he coldly defended the eviction claus Parnell upon rising was loudly cheered. said he thou:ht Goschen was looking rather to the enhanced value of peoperty under his future land purchase bill than to~ the inter- ests of Irish tenants. The government pro- poses to abolish evictions by executing them under another name, ~with the ob- ject of getting rid of tha record of such transactions as evictions. He warned the government that the land scheme would not affect the national feeling in Ire- land, He suggested that if the government was not disposed to aceept the advice of the Cowper commission it might atleast meet the Irish members nalf way. Gladstone thought the debate had been conducted with ability, Presuming that the gove nt maintained - an open mind - regarding the suggestions made, he thought it needless to press the amendment to a division. ut that the house should be left at liberty to amend and substantially improve the bill. W. H. Smith said the” government consid- sidered the bankruptey clauses advantageous 1o the tenants, and, it the house insisted upon eliminating those clauses, on the house would rest the responsibility of the amend- ment negative. ‘The bill was read a second time without division. It was decided to consider the bill in committee Thursday next. The Fall of the Bastile. Panis, July 14.—Thus far the fall of the bastle has been commemorated with quiet and deorum. A demonstration was wmade at the statue of Strasburg this morning, but it was of an entirely peaceful nature. Mem- bers of the Patriotic league and other asso- ciations, witb banners and trumpets, marched past the statue and deposited upon it colossal memorial crowns. As this was done there were a few cries from the sion of “Vive la France!” “Vive In lique!” and Vive Boulanger!” were no attemots at disorder. President Grevy, accompanied by all mem- bers of the ministry, left the palace of Kl e 3:30 o'clock this™ afternoon to attend the review of troops. An escort of cuirassiers vreceded and followed the president’s - riage. People along the route greeted the vresident with cries of “Vive Grevy,” In the evening President Grevy "and his minlstry re greeted with some fsolated crles of *“Vive Boulanger” and “Resign.’ and aofew hisses on their arrival at Long Champs to witness the review, but cries of #Vive la Rapublique” dominated and the })rmple seemed generally disposed to be riendly. ‘The review of troops passed off vithout {ncident. It was witnessed by an mmense but orderly crowd, which cheered the troops heartily. The march bexan at 110 o’clock and’ was finished at 5:50. The president and eabinet then returned to Paris. The populace thls evening is calm and all fears of disorder have vanished., Henr Rochefort, Deputies Lalsant ana Laguerre and a number of other irreconciii- ables attempted to excite a hostile demon- stration during the review at Long Champs to-day, but the people around quickly n‘iimwno:l out their voices with cries ot *'Vive revy. . P’résident Grevy has addressed a letter to General Ferron, ininister of war, In which he ays: “The review was wagunitcent. Iwnd- ulx the wartlal bearing and perfect pre- olslon of tho troops. Convey tothem my hearty congratulations,” roces- tepub- but there Ashbourne Denounces the Leaguo. LonvoN, July 14.—In the house of lords this afternoon Baron Ashbourne, lord chan- cellor of Ireland, moved the second reuding of the crime bill. 1u making the motion, he described the bill us a measure intended to counteract the criminal, demoralizing system of intimidation now reigning in Ire- land, a system that coerced loyal people. terfered with every relation of lite. sex nor age was spared from this odiou ferocions tyranny. 1t was a slander uj s unions to compare them with ‘the onal league. It was absolutely startling ar Gladstone cloak the abomiuable sys- tem of boyeotting under the euphemism of “exclusive dealing.” Earl Granville said he would not deny that X ernment finding itselt uu-glo 10 maintain law and order by existing measures, had a right to apply to parliament for fur- ther measures, but when the restrietions pro- posed suspending common personal rights, the clearest proof of it was required to justify the exceptional law. The state of Ireland WAS 1S peacecble now as in 1 when the or- dinary law was found sufficient. Everybody knew the aim of the bill was to suppress combinations that interfered with the polic of the government and brand them as illegal, ‘The opposition, having done its utmost to re- Tist the passage of the bill, must leave npon the government the responsibility for 1ts re- sults. The Duke of Argvle, Lord Carnar- von and others spoke and the bill was then read a second time. Tne measure will discussed u comumittee to-morrow. VANDERBILT'S OCEAN TRIP, It Was Pleasant and the Yacht Be- haved Beautitully, (Copuriaht 1887 by James Gordn Bennett.) lavekroor, July 14.—[New York Her- ald Cable—-Special to the B ander- bilt's steam yaeht Alva only arrived here early this morning, baving been delayed In the lower Mersey. She luid off the landing stage astern the Arizonw and attracted the attention of a large number of spectators who favorably commented on her lines and type: As already stated, not- withstanding the pounding the Alva got in the gale, she looked clean and trim, avd her deck, in its elegant arrangements, Jooked as If she was starting instead of lying after trip. 1 tirst sccosted Mr. Vanderbilt, giviug him Herald congratulations, of his party and was accompanied by Win- field Seott Hoyt. Laughingly he said: “I am like George Cumming’s needy knife grinder— ‘there is no story to tell’ We had the ordinary voyage of ocean lines and its usual sea incldents, nolhing more. When we left New York my intention was to come here via Azores, but as we found such pleasant weather I concluded to come right on, al though we had already ot about 200 miles out of our course on the way to the Azores.

Germany's Hand on the Sword. BenrLIN, July 14—A German resident of udry, In the department of Nord, France, writes to the Mannneim Journal that the anti-German feeling in Cauary is terri- ble, and that he and other Germnans had nar- rowly escaped being kliled, He and his countrymen were insulted in the streets daily and it was hardly sate to venture out. The Kreuz Zeitung, referring to this letter, says it Is intolerable that Germans should endure such treatment. ‘“‘France,” it says, “must be made to understand that there is a thus far and no further in the matter.” The Deutsches Tageblatt publishes a number of verses reminding France that the German hand rests upon the sword.

NEW YoRrg, July 14.— At 1:06 Jacob Sharp was sentenced to four years’ nnprisonment and to pay a fine of $5 Sharp slept bet- ter last night than for some nights pre- vious, but it seemed to be the sleep of utter exhaustion, and he appeared to be but little refreshed by it _when he arose this morning at9 o'clock. The clock was in- dicating almost noon when Sharp was al- most carried into the court room, — His and son-in-law were close behind him, and deep lines of weari- ness and sorrow overspread their faces as they seated themselves beside the convicted man and fanned his livid face without brini- ing anything like a semblauce of color back to it "'lle excitement was hecoming feverish when a sudden hush came over the room, as the three raps on the door announced the entrance of Judge Barrett. After calling the court, Martine got up and stated that he heard the defense had some remarks to make, Hewished to hear them. Mitchell responded saying that he had o application to put in for a delay, but would move tor a new trial. The motion was denied by Judge Barrett. District Attorney Martine then stood up to 1wove the court to sentence the prisoner. He stated he considerad it his duty to ask the court to appoint physicians to look into the prisoner’s condition of health. Martinestated in conclusion that there was nothing left for him to do but to move for the sentence of the prisoner. Mitchell then stood up to make a last appeal for defense. Tie said he did not wish to' delay the court, but would ask the judge to temper justice with '“"‘K' Judge Barrott then proceeded to deliver the sentence. He said that he had never per- formed so delicate a task in his whole vro- fessional career, He had received many let- ters from many people pieading for mercy for Sharp, but the court’ was not appointed to be merciful any more than was dictated by Le laws of justice. “What 18 there to excite pity and mercy except the age and i1l health of the prisoner and the mou Ix%condu‘.nn of his family? With over ,000 in his pocket, he clamors for mércy without offer- ng to pay duck a penny of the money stolen, s that should he die tn prison his family has a vast fortune to fall back upon.” At this Mrs. Sharp buried her face in her handker- chief and wept silently, while the prisoner himself did not litt his face from the table. “The judgement of this court is that the prisonier be confined four years at hard labor and that he pay a tine of §5,000,” An attempt at applause was made in one corner of the court as the sentence was pro- nounced, but 1t was suppressed quickly, Sharp received his sentence with stocial, re- signed despair. He was borne almost faint- fug out of the court room, Mrs. Sharp was terribly affected aud gave way to uncontrol- able emotion. Judze Potter, of the supreme court, this afternoon eranfed a stay in the Sharp' case until Monday next and granted an order re- quirlng the district attorney to show cause on that day why it should not be made per- manent. ‘The stay was granted on aflidavits by Sharp's counse! that they need more time 10 prepare a bill of exceptions, - —~——— Prominent K. of P.

New York, July 13.—|Special Telegram to the BEg. |—A Honolulu speclal to the He: ald, dated July 5, gives the report of an in- terview which the Herald eorrespondent had with King Kalakaua, 'The king is reported assaying: “The history of the presenttrouble would be too long to enter into now. My po- sition to-day is largely one ot ignorance as to what is exactly going on. As [ understand it. however, the new constitution is being drawn up by a committee of revision, com- posed of my present ministry, the supreme court and a numper of citizens. What that constitution contains I do not know, but 1 am informed it has provisions that will radically alter the political condition of affairs,” He continued: “For instance, Lam told that it will confer a franchise upon all residents, whether citizens or not, provided they are property holders holders, Now un- less class legislation is practiced that will extend the franchise to the Chinese, Jap- anese and Portuguess, and cut off the voting power of some three er four thousand natives whose present qualifica- tion is that of education, and under that there ar between eleven and twelve thous- and voters, of whom not more than five or 8ix hundred are white. Now, it is a serious l,uenllnu whether 1 have any right to sign a document working such injustice to my ‘countrymen as thie new constitution would do at the instigation of the meeting, more than three-fourths of whose members have no say in this country's affairs.” “Will you sign the document?” was asked. “I shall not,”” he repeated, “‘unless ad- vised to by my privy council to whom L shall submit unless 1 am com- pelled to do it instantly under duress, But no matter, whether sizned by duress or advice, I shall consider the docu- ment illegal. The only way the existing constitution can be changed Is by a vote of the legisiature at two suce aud wiien people attempt to cl stitution 1n any other way they si me an unwilling party to an 1llegal act. “What are the relations between yourself and the new ministry,” was the next ques- tion. “I oannot tell,” answered the king spread- ing open his hands, “I have not seen them since they took the oath of office.” “But that,” it was suggested, “‘was nearly Why do not you summon thern to be informed astothe true ring.” "?l is,” said the king firmly, *That will show me their hand, or, atall events they snall bear the responsibility of keepiniz me in ignorance as to what is going on. I'll do it,” and, summoning Antolne Rosa, his chamberinah, he gave orders for the immedi- ate convening of his ministry. “Do you fear any personal violence ! “It you mean dreading 1t, L say no, If you mean anticipating it, L canhot say. 1do not fear dying, and I do not believe that the end of the'trouble has been reached.” “\WWhat means have you of self defense?” “I have my bodyguard of sixty men, who are passavly well armed and drilled, an Aus- trian l’mlwra' of six field pieces, two grape cannon with asweeping fire, good bolts to outside doors and good hearts within. Then, too, there are two companies of native vol- unteers ealled the Queens and King’s own, composed mainly or old retainers.” “But outside there are 300 men, over a thousand rifles, and ammunition enough for asiege.” “Yes,” replied the king, nervously wetting his lips, “but they have not got in- side yet.” “Will you call on the Unit Adams for assistance? “Not exactly for alakaua. “But [ have determined upon the sailing of the Australia this afternoon either to request the minister ot foreign affairs to ask the foreizn representative to consider the advisability of adopting certain plans for assuring me of my personal safety or else to makean appeal over my own signature.” “My proposition,” he added, “will be that a detachment of marines shall be landed from the Adams and be quartered at the ace, and my argument will be that their vresence may stop bloodshed which might otherwise occur.” THE F ATORS, Another Interesting Day at the Chi- cago Convention, CiicAGo, July 14. e fourth session of the National Educautional association opened with an org:.n voluntary, after which reports of committees were made, and other business was transacted, The topic under consideration this morning was, “The rela- tion of university, colleze and higher tech- nologieal schools to the public system of in- struction.” Papers were read by James B.

Burdette, at- torney for the St. Paut, Minneapolis & Man- itoba road, appeared before the interstate commission to-day and submitted motions to have certain complaints from Dakota farm- ers dismissed on the ground that the acts complained of antedated the passage of the inter-state law, and that the testimony taken was without notice to defendant and with- out glving an opportunity to cross-examine witnesses, The commission, after consulta- tion, stated to Burdette that there seemed no reason for his further attendance and that its decision would be a matter of record, The action is equivalent to dis- missal A. T. Britton, representing the Chicago, . Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha railway, ap- peared and addressed the commission brietly n respect to the complaints of Fulton & Co. and F. D. Harding, of Hudson. Wis., of unreasonable charges. Britton stated that the rates used by the complainants as a com- were quoted when a violent rate war progress, and present rates were a restoration to normal conditions. Action was reserved, Hard On American Konds, WASHINGTON, July 18.—|Special Telozram to the Beg.|—It1s feared that under a re- cent cecision of the secretary of the treasury the Canadian Pacitic railway will secure the greater portion of the freights from the Pacitic slope to the eastern seaboard to the great injury of the American trans- continental roads. This decision is that the Pacific Coast Steamshlp company, which runs a line of vessels from San_Francisco to the terminus of the Canadian Pacitic railroad, may carry freights in bond from Aerican ports on the Pacitic coast througn Canadian territory via rail routes, to the eastern parts of the United States. The Canadian Pacitic road is not hampered by the long and shert haul clause of the inter-state commerce law, and it will doubtless secure thousands of tons of freight through this order.
