Brown 15 a man with a singu- arly large eye and great mesmeric force, He detormined to try to hynotize Ed- wards vecause he feared the prisoner would become insame from cravings for the drug. He obtained such com- plete control over Edwards that the tiend enjoyed the first refreshing sleep ho has known for years. He gained flesh and lost all desire for “dope,” which had been neces- sary to his existence for sixteon years., A fellow-prisoner who did not believe'in his re- form offered him some gum opium, but it made Edwards sick, although before being byphotized he would have enjoyed it.

IN THE COMMONS, The Irish Question is Argued in lts Various Phases. Loxnox, Nov. %.—In the commons today Spencer asked the government, in view of the recent, financial crisis, to introdnce a bill to amend the bank act by providing for the issue of £ notes, Balfour introduced the trish land bill. He said the government's policy was the same as in 1389 but for sim- plicity the bill had been cut in half. Both portions, however, are practically the same as in the bill of 1589, One variation of the present bill from that of last year was that it met in some degree Parnell's views in re- gard to the pr p se. It ox- cluded all prvely grazing farmsand farms whose tenauws did not reside on them. A | limit of twenty years purchase, objected to | last session, has been removed. Tn regard to increasing the power of the local authorities Bolfour said it would be absurd to leave thy pmmunit ider the incite- ment of agitators to_determine whether they should adopt a remedy going to the root | of the agavian discontent. * If they were to give loeal control in any form it oght to be by the plebescite of the rate payers, enabling them, under safeguards of the ballot, to vote upon the question of grauting a contingent portion of the guarantee fund for each county.

PHILADELPATA, Pa., Nov. 21— [Special Tel- epram to Tue Bre.]—The steamship Penn- sylvania arrived at her dock today and re- ports t the British steamer Falcon, from New York to Glasgow with a cargo of stoves, was abandoned on the 16th inst. in a sinking condition, with her bow stove and bulwarks and sails gone, having encoun- tered very heavy gales. The captain and crew of fourteen were taken off with difti- cuity by the Penusylvania and landed here. Captain McMillan of the Falcon told the fol- lowing stoy “We sailed from New Sunday, November 2 From the the “start we had bad weather, which gradually incrensed to heavy gales. We stood the blow until the morning’of No- vember 15, when we sprang a serious lealk, Heay, continually washed over the ‘vessel, smashing = the forecastle, carrying away the _ventilators and crushing the decks. One enormous sea struck the engine room and skylight, smash- ing it. ‘Phrough this tons of water poured, putting out the fires. A fresh fire was started by burning loose boards and wood, but the water soon extinguished this also, We were now in serious danger from th water rapidly gaining in the hold, and wit the donkey-pump our ves- sel was liable to fill and sink at any moment, AL ourlife boats had either been washed over d or damaged to such an ex- tent that 1o hope was left us in that quarter, The only resource left us was to keep the vessel ‘afloat until we could be taicen off by some passing ship. Accordingly, the hand-pumps were manned and an attempt made to keep the water down, At mid- night, after hours of hard work, the discour- aging discovery was wmade that the water had gained on us. The fact that the steering gear was useless left the vessel un- manageable and she lay in the trough of the sea, where she wallowed and dove into each succeeding wave at such a furious rate that it was almost impossible for the men to keep their feet. In the face of this perilous state of affairs the men continued their work at the pumps. The vessel rolied and plunged in a way that threatened to send her to the bottom. Sea upon sea swept over her~ decks, one monster wave seeming to literally bury her under water." be crew of the Falcon had almost given up hope of beiug rescued when the lights of the Pennsylwania attracted their attention. s SAGE REBUKES ADAMS," York on He Characterizes the Latter's Address as Very Unhandsome. New Yonrk, Nov. 27.—[Special Telegram to Tne Bee.|—It is quite evident that the Gould-Sage party which yesterday went into power in Union Pacific affairs did not enjoy the farewell address of Charles Francis Adams. Mr. Sage was seen last night after his return from Boston and said : “The tenor of Mr. Adams’ address was al- most uncalled for, There had been no public criticism ot his mal ment made by any of the directors, notwithstanding the fact that he was running the road to ruin. A change in the management was simply a necessity to save the property, and Mr. Adams' speech was a piece of spite work, 1 did not hear it myself, as I was not then a member of the board, but some of those who had been his own directors denounced it as a most unhandsome thing and were disgusted at the display Mr. Adams made of himself. One of them said to me: ‘It is a shameful fact that Mr. Adams has been try- ing to run this great property by means of & lot of women typewriters and a dozen or so of Harvard graduates who knew no more about railroads than a backwoodsman, ‘The new members of the board were 4 necessity to save the road from a ruin that | must have come within o year.’ “Mr. Adams says in ‘his address,” con- tinued Mr. Sage, “that he has been of the voad for seven and that during that time actions of the board of directors have been in every case unanimous, That is simply saying that Mr. Adams has been the Union Pacific and is respousible for its condition. It that case he should just explain how it comes that the pay- roll was increased by 4,000 namos in nine months; at’ personal interest he had in the Kansas smelting works, in favor of which a discrimination was made in the rates for shipping bullion, and a half-dozen other matters that might be inquired into. We are uot taking hold of the Union Pacific for the fun of tho thing. I am in it, not for pleasure or financial profit, but to help to save the property. The condition of affairs was such that we had to take hold. Now all the directors are in sympathy with the plaus laid down by Mr, Gould.”” “‘What does Mr. Adams mean by hif fre- quent reference to the political connections of the Union Pacific?” That was another piece of spite work, A Adams saw that he could not maintain the system and he does not seem to want any- body else to. That is the only construction I can put upon the several passages of his ad- dress that relate to the political aspects of the rights and relations of the Uuion Pacific system. Gould on Adams. New Your, Nov. 27.—Tomorrow the Trib- une will print an interview with Jay Gould, in which he says ex-President Adams of the Union Pacific isa theorist who conducted many affairs of the Union Pacific with- out the knowledge of the directors, Gould said he learned when last in Kansas City, that Adams po owned control of tho stock yards there, and while the rail- road was carrying in théir live stock at bare cost of trausportation, the_stockyards earned $1,000,000 the past year. Such wetion as this, he said, would never be pormitted under the new management. Ho believes the Burling- ton and Rock Island will both come into the plan for securing better vesuits from western railway business. No farther changes, he said, were to be made in the Union Pacific.

Bu- bear woa, THE POLITICS OF NEW YORK. Senator Fassett Thinks Hill Can Whatever He May Ask. Have SMITH M. WEED FOR THE SENATORSHIP. New York Not Yet to Be Ignored~The nfluence of Indiana—-Mr. Fas- sett’'s Smile—Confidence of Speaker Reed. Wasmyaroy Bupeav Tie Ovam B 513 ForRTEENTH STH Wasnizeroy, D, C Senator Fassett of New York, whe is he on his way south, tells some interesting gos- sip about politics in New York stato. He says that Governor Hill can be United States s ator or can be re-clected governor orcan have the New York delegation at the democ: presidential convention fn 1892, und ne thinks that he will decide to take the senatorship with a view 10 having something permanent in case he fails to be eleeted prosident. If Hill decides not to take the senatorship he will elect Smith M. Weed in his place, Weed, Fassett . is a Randall democrat, a high tariff man, and Hill agrees with him on this issue. Cleveland has the following of the better class of democrats and the busi- ness men of New York, but Hill controls every dermocratic organization from Tammany to the township clubs throughout the state'and will control the convention that names the delegates to the next presidential convention. “New York and Indiana,”” said Mr. Fassett m conclusion, “will send Hill delegations to the conyention. The time has not come when New York can be ignoved by cither party and Indiana is also a grea doubtful state. These two delegations may beable to swing the convention their w They certainly will have great weight. The only way in which Mr. Cleveland's friends can break the force of a solid delegation 1s to send to the convention 2,000 or 3,000 of the best democratic doctors, lawyers and busi- ness men, the cleanest, most réspectable men in all New York, and let them loudly pro- claim: ‘We are the people, and we are for Cleveland.’ “I do not know,” said Mr, Fassett with a smile, “that this would be of any effect, but the experiment might be tried.” SPEAKER REED WILL SEE. Representative Dunnell of Minnesota, who is the chairman of the apportionment’ com- mittee of the house of representatives, has reached Wushington, and declares that the republicans will pass a reapportionment bill at the coming session, no matter what the democrats may think or do. He does not in- tend to increase the ratio of population, but rather the number of represeutatives,’ and suggests from 350 to 365 as the proba ber of the next house, instead of present. This number would aliow the older states to retain their present representation and give the new states the additional con- gressmen that they are entitled to because of thew increase of population. Speaker Reed, in conversation today, endorsed what Mr. Dunnell said, and spoke with great emphasis with regard to the passage of the apportion- ment bill. When informed that the demo- crats intended to pursue a policy of desperate resistance, he replied: “Well, we'll seo to that,” ¢ AN OPINION ON THE INDIAN SCARE. Colonel Thomas M. Vincent, assistant ad- jutant general, United States’ army, now on duty at army headquarters in this city, was for many years stationed on the frontier and among thé Indians who are now giving so much trouble at Standing Rock and Pine Ridge agencies. “My experience with our red brethren,” remarked Colonel Vineent, “demonstrated pretty clearly that the In dians are fond of bragging, and especially when they see that it has any effect upon the pale face. Agent Royer at Pine Ridge scems to have heen somewhat demoralized by the exciting scenes which transpired in the vi- cinity of the agency and allowed himself to be victimized by the Indians and hence his telegrams to the Indian department. For my part 1 was inclined to treat the matter pretty much as the usual score unul reports were received from Agent McLaughlin and then matters begun to assume a more serious aspect, owing to his experience and long residence 'among them, MecLaughlin is a_pretty good judge of the Indian character, and when he sounded an alarm it was time 'to heed it. But he had a remedy, as was shown in the appointment of 500 good Indians as scouts, for like his white brethren, an Inaian is pretty apt to be impressed with'a brief show or badge of au- ity. These new men will be invaluable in ferreting out and preventing any troublé, but will seta good example to the other Indians who have not been so fortunate as to be awarded auniform and brass buttons by the government.” Peray S.

The house was packed to tl ors with people and the programme was heartily enjoved by all. The Sunday school had pledged the payment of the funds neces- sary to pay for the gas fixturesof the church, and a colléction was taken up which made up the amount needed to liquidate the bill. Rev.

Hehas a smgularly oxpressive face and i as truly delightful in _the touches of pathos which Mr. Hoyt has surrounded the part, as in the boisterous flashes of merriment which constantly come to the surface, requiring the actor to be an athlete as well as a clever farceur. His imi- tation of an Italian fruiterer delivering an after dinner speech upon George Washington was an_exceedingly charming bit of work and won the audicrice because of its faithful- ness in dialect and the inimitable manner of its delivery.
