Loxpox, Oct. 25.—~Chamberlain, speaking to-night at a meeting to bid him farewell on his American trib, said they had all seen tho telegram stating that Irish-Americans would do all in their power to mar his mission. The sources of the statement might be tainted, yet represented undoubt- edly the fact that the Irish-Americans were ready to use every effort to prevent a settlement. - There never has been a time in the Jast thirty years when the Irish in America has not been willing to use the privileges conceded them by their adopted country in order to sow disension and pro- mote ill-feeling between Great Brit#inand America. He was encouraged, however, by the belief that & vast majority of native Americans and eovery Englishman and Scotchman in the United Kingdom would ré- gard conflict between these two countries as a crime of the deepest dye. They were ° earnestly desirous ‘of an amicable, honorable-settlement, and ‘would not allow it to be jeopardized by party rancor or personal feclings. Referting o the remarks of & Toronto paper construing one of his Ulster specches into an insult to Canagdlians, Chamberlnin sajd it was a great misapprehension of meaning. What he said was that part of Ganada was secking com- mercial union with the United States, which would practically mean free trade between Canada for.Canada and the United States, while at the same timg Canada was to con- tinue to impose protective duties on Im;-om from the mother county. He had said if the people of Canada desire an arrangement of that kind he did not doubt they would be able to socure it. He did not think any one in England would attempt to pre- vent such an arrangement by force, but he had- remarked that in that case all the advantages of the slender tio which still bound Canada to England would disap- ar as far as Enlflnnd was concerned, and t was not likely the people of Great Britain would continue much longer to sustain the obligations and responsibilities of relation- ship, all the reciprocal benefits of which had been withdrawan, Commercial union of this kind, if it ever came about, would be the arn step towards signal and practical scpara- on. LoxnoN, Oct. 25.—~The foreign offico has issued a circular announcing that Chamber- lain will depart fer Washington early in November and will be accompanied by Mr. Bergne, superintendent of the treaty depart- ment, and Mr. Maycock, another attache of the foreign. office. N GARRETT'S CONDITION. Dr. Barnard Says the Reports Have Been Greatly Exaggerated. Sr. Paui, Oct. 35.—Dr. Barnard, who was Mr. Garrett's confidentfal assistant in the Baltimore & Ohio, and who has charge of the details of the present trip, said to an Associated Press reporter to-night that Mr. Mr. Garrett for a number of years has been very desirous of visiting the Pacific const and Mexico. The recent severance of his executive relations with the Baltimore & Ohio now enables him to carry out this long entertained project without jeopardizing any important corporate or private interest, and this is all there is in the many sensational stories that have been published of late. Mr. Garrett and party will leisurely visit all points of interest between here and the Pa- cific coast, spend considerable time on the coust and then visit ‘Mexico. In re- ply to an inquiry as to Mr. Garrett's mental condition, Dr. Barnard said, in substance, that for more than two years Garrett has recklessly abused him- mental ‘overwork, while neglecting physical exe Inheriting from his father the characteristic of large blood vessels in the head, in moments of _undue mental excitement as a result of prolonged mental application, there is inevi- tably an undue running of blood to the head, which has long been a_subject of grave con- cern to the family. They have felt it necessary of late to closely ob- serve his moyements, and = keep him from great excitement. A portion of the press has been very incon- siderate in persistently misinterpreting these precautions, the facts being thot Me. Gan rett's family and Ag have only beci 30- licitous to protect him from an attack of cengestion of the brain or brain_fever, of :vhich he has been in imminent peril for some ime, IS TRAIN COMING ? A Dispatch Which Would Indicate That He Is Not. George Francis Train was expected to ar- rive in Omaha this morning from Kansas City, where ‘he has been lecturing for the past three days to crowded houses, Yester- day the BEE received telegraphic assurances from the eccentric lecturer, in his own pecu- liar style, that he was to take a Turkish bath here to-day and invited the reporters to meet him. But it would seem that Mr- Train is going to disappoint all who have been expecting to see and hear him. At least that is the way the BrE trans- lates the following dispatch which was re- ceived at an early hour this morning: Kaxsas Crry, Mo,, Oct. 25.—BEE, Omaha. — Kansas y - captul Western engage- 1 led.

HasTiNGs, Neb,, Oct. 25.—This morning about 7 o'clock a German farmer named Schooke, was found burned to death along side of the public highway, “about one mile east of the city. From what can be learned he was pretty well under the influence of liquor and his clothing caught fire from a spark from a cigar or pipe and, being chilled and helpless, he was slowly burned to death. The wagon striking a rut in the road, threw him out, where he lay until found. He was a horrible sight, his head and face being burned beyond recognition, while nearly his entire body was in the same condition. A coroner’s jury was empaneled, but the in- quest has been postponed until to-morrow morning. Schooke leaves an aged mother and six children in destitute circumstances who will have to be looked after by the county.

PariLioN, Neb,,Oct. 25.~[Special Telegram to the Ber.]—District ddurt convened here yesterday morning, Judge Neville on the bench, and adjourned untit Wednesday. The docket is very light, containing a small num- ber of cases, and none of. special interest, e Censw on of Coffee. Good Cheer: Thd Hollanders are the greatest coffee drinkers in the world, their annual ('onsum‘)tion being about eighteen pounds per head of the whole population. Amsterdam has long been one of the great coffee marts of the world, and, being admitted free of duty, coffee is very cheap. Next comes Belgium and Denmark, in which the consumption per capita is about half of that of Holland. Next comes the United States, in which the consumption r capita in 1880 was eight and eight- tenths pounds. The present consump- tion of coffee in the United States may be stated at a little over one pound per week for each family in the na- tion. In the use of tex and coifes the people of England and the United States present a most remarkable contrast. The annual consumption of the people of England is just about a pound of cof- fee per head, or about one-eighth of that of the people of the United States. Comparing the consumption of tea with that of coffee, it will found that, while the people of the United States use about five liounds of coffee to one of tea, the people of England use five pounds of tea to one of coffee. There are fashions in coffee, as in almost everything, At Aden and Alex- andria the Mocha coffee is carefully picked over and assorted, in compliance with the singular fashion in trade which creates o demand in Europe for the larger beans, while the United States will have none but the smaller ones. In point of fact, the larger beans are the best, being fully developed, more perfect in appearance and flavor. —— New Invention Cotton Factory Times: The severe competition in recent years in every branch of industry has set innumerable keen wits to work, with the result of many startling improvements in various trades; but thereare few which compare in importance with the ‘‘simultancous” process of color printing, which prom- 1ses to entively revolutionize some classes of calico and velvet and velve- teen printing, and also the printing of advertisements solor The novel character of the ‘s neous” process will be at once under- stood when we mentign that by it, if re- quired, 1,000 shades could be printed off at one impression. Instead of using en- graved rollers, as tn) ordinar printing, or stones,’ay in the case of tolored advertisemefits, the designs or pictures are “built up”/in a case in solid colors, sp«ciulli' prepared, somewhat after the style of Mosaie work; a portion is then cut or sliced off about an inch in thickness, and this i$ waapped round a cylinder, and the composition has only to be kept moist and agy number of im- pressions can be printéd off on calico, velvet or velveteen, the colors being thoroughly *‘fast.” ¢ The California Wine District. Gath letter: “Do’ you raise in that northern country mostof your wine?” “Yes; north of Sa¢ramento the grer est vineyards are to be found., My own vineyard there has some 3,800 acres in it, The world has no more lovely region than the Sacramento valley and its affluents. They have had no excite- ment in land speculation thereabout compared to southern California, partly Dbecause the eastern people have not seen that country and partly because the tracts of land have been held in large bodies; whereas in tha south, wheve grain not so much raised, thoy could the land in small par- cels and accommodate strangers, You soe, if a man.weut up iuto the Sacra- mento regions and took 160 acres of land it would compel those who raiss wheat to put up afence and keep hLjs stoek out of their grain, Therefore the vegion north of San Francisco has barely duwned, and still its productions are marvelous, BEE: >'w.EDNESDAi.’.

After Death ne. How He Proposes to and Make a For San Francisco Chronic J, 8, Hunter, who is better known as the “man without legs,” and who formerly sold papers at the ferry landings, died a horrible death yesterday after- noon at 4:15 o'clock in the city receiv- ing hospital. Hunter had gone there about one week ago, saying that on the night previous he had eaten by mis- take, or rather while he was asleep at the Commercial hotel, a piece of bread, on which before vetiving he had spread rough on rats. He was immediately made to take severe emetics, after which he went intg épiieptic fits, Sinco his admission to the hospital he has had six of them, during the lust of which he ied, The hospital steward believed yester- day morning thut Hunter had entirely recovered uand intended discharging him at noontime. Prior to that, how- ever, he cut off the handle of a broom to replace Hunter’slostcane and Landed it to him to f it wzs snort enough, tely used the stick to iing to the steward, in which he was fairly successful for a while, until a misdirected blow brought the cudgel up against the hospital wall, when it broke, The steward then mas- tered his assailant and put him in a strait-jacket. He promised Hunter his release in an hour provided he behaved himself, but the man, by that time fairly frenzied, yelled and cursed hor- ribly. F0 & veporter of the Chronicle, who spoke to hiza during the afterngon, he OCTOBER 26, 1887, said he had been put in the' jacket be- cause he spoke to thestewart about God, ‘s being the —— rascal has never heard of before.” He further stated that if he were not given his liberty he would “soon peg out.” True enough, a fow minutes later, when he was alone, he was taken with a fit and when found he was dead Hunter was a_typical character. He was a shrewd, discerning New Hamp- shire Yankee, who lived by his wits. He always hnd some scheme on_foot to mulet people out of money, and when he was in funds he took his ense until poverty stared him in the face again and then he would start out for new victims. He preyed on men in all walks of life, and sometimes soared high for game. Recently he tried to cateh Senator Leland Stanford in his net, but the latter wouldn’t bite, and left Hunter's letter requesting an interview unanswered. What he thought of the senator’s slight is freely expressed in a note which was found by the coroner among Hunter's letters. 1t had evidently been written just before he took the poison, and he did not find time to mail Here it is: Mr. Stanford: 1 sent you a note on the 30th of September, thinking you was a gen- tioman. 1 propos to have a gentlemanly talk with you, but ns you was hog enough to even keep the 2-cent stamp I sent you I ad- vise you to look out for the Future if you imagine there is no Death. Yours with con- tempt, ONE WHO ASKED A FAvoRr. Another letter, original both in its style and idea, was addressed to Dr. C. C. O'Donnell, to whom Hunter ‘“dodi- cates” his body in the following lan- guage: Dr, C. C. O’'Donnell—-Dear Sir: Having a natural presentment that my existence will terminate very abruptly on account of the numerous trances I have fallen into lately, and on account of our old doctor at home avoiding any intervention in my sy all occasions as being some thing be comprehension of human skill, therefore, as Dr. O'Donnell kindly ofited mo one day in sickness by furnishing medicine for noth- ing, 1, in return dedicate this frame of mine to him in event of what is called death, for the doctor to experiment for the advance- ment of the human race to which Icheerfully dedicate myself. Doctor, please give this your close atten- tion and you will not only advance the human race, but very materially advance your and my fortune in the event of my death. You observe my legs are cut oft. Take galvanized wire, after first having pumped all the blood out of my veins and the marrow out of my bones, and connect with the arteries the gal- vanized wire; then connect the different veins with the galvanized w and the bones ‘with the galvanized iron tube, and make arti- ficial legs: cover the whole with some kind of flesh, Sceing all the connections form a complete circuit with the body, pnmp elec- tricity into the whole body through t’u' nos- trils and I am a new man again for another generation. But the actual process of eternal Tife I hold that secret myself and will impart it to none until after my proper restoration as directed by me, and if that is not done I shall have the pleasure of restoring myself when 1 please in another form. Then those failing to comply with my request must suffer ac- cordingly. Yours, . HUNTER, San Fraxcisco, October 9. Dr. O'Donnell could not be found last night to tell what he thought of Hun- ter's novel partnership proposition. As deceased has no rvelatives here he will probably be consigned to a pauper’s grave, — ——— STYLES IN WAL NG STICKS. Dudedom Will Be Relieved of a Bur- n That Has Long Overtaxed It. New York Mail: *“The fashionable walking sticks for this fall and winter will not be as large as they were last year,” said a salosman in o Broadwsy shep, “The swell youths who carrvied thoso telegraph poles last winter found themselves pulled down in flesh when spring came. The result is that the medium weight sticks will be most in demand this season. The plain styles are selling best now. The English hazel and the French crab sticks, with medium-sized silver caps, are popular, and ash, olive, orange, and snakewood, with crooks or knobs all in one piece, are correct for all but dress occasions. Crooks and crutches of buckhorn are still very popular, and some new sticks are made of American laurel, which, by the way, comes from Mexico. Old English oak is also in use this season, and is_as stylish for canes as it is for house decorations. “Silver-deposit canes came out this year, and are in great demand. They are made by covering the wood with graphite to make it a conductor of elec- tricity and then electro-plating the top. *‘A’great many gentlemen this year have cut articles for themselves where they have been summering and brought them to us to_have the silver deposit put on them. We have to keep a large variety of fantastic styles, such as demons, dragons, harlequins and clowns, These are all in silver, und some are very effective, as, for instance, this one of a skull with a lizard crawling on'it. Another skull cane has emeralds for eyes and the lower jaw pivoted so that it opens and shuts as youmove the stick. We get the London and Paris designs as soon as they come out, and we import some of the classes of sticks that we think we sell. There are more home designs sold than imported ones.” Carefor the L'h;'ld;en Children fecl the debility of the changing seasons, even moro than adults, and they be- como cross, pecvish, and uncontrollable.
