WILL HOLD A POST MORTEM: The Exnct Oause of Parnell's Death to Be Cfficially Ascertained. WILL BE BURIED AT HIS BIRTHPLACE, Hints Thrown Out That the Paris Fund May Be Found Greatly De- pleted—Archbishop Walsh's Severe Comment, Loxnoy, Oct. 8 ~It has been decided to bold a post mortem examination of the body of Parnell, with a view to settling definitely the onuso of death. A dispatch from Brighton says the doctor's certiticate states that death was caused by rheumatic fever, resulting in excessive temper- aturo and failure of the heart. Dr. Gowers, jr, and Dr. William Richard Gowers, 1. IR. S., both of whom wers in at tendance upon Parnell during his last iilness, say that death was due to acute rheumatism and congestion of the lungs, It was decided at a family council this af ternoon that £arnell’s remaius shouid be ac corded a public funeral and_the body be in- terred at Avondale, county Wicklow,Ireland, where the dead leader was born. Mrs. Paruell is still prostrated with grief, and though weak and exhausted from long watching aud the terrivle shock, positively refuses to partake of food or refreshment and will only see ber daughter. PARNELLISM WIPED OUT. With the Death of the Leader Fac tional Fighting Ends. New Youx, Oct. 8,—Harold Fredericks 8 dispateh from London to the Times, says of Parneil: “He looked always extremely fragile and in earlier days danger of collapso gave much concern to his party. But when they learncd how and whero bis long absences from his post, which he explained on the score of ili health, were really spent, in credulity as to his condition succeeded and ol sides ceased thinking of it Parnell always led an indolent iife. He took very littie exercise, shooting over his Avon- dalo preserves only five or six days. In the yoar. Hence, when the schism came, with the necessary strenuous, constant exertion, he was unable to stand it. He appeared be- fore the audience at Creegs, in Galway, with bis arm in a sling. This trouble developed fnto pericarditis, Quite in keeping with the habits of his life no one knew ho was ill till startied by the announcement of his death. “Naturally there were stories of suicide. There was of coursa a possibility that the in- tousity of the rheumatic pains prompted him to the excessive use of anwsthetics, but there seems to bo no other ground for the rumors which were suggested doubticss by the strange Balmaceda ond Boulanger parallels of the last month, Politically the effect will be literally over- whelming, ~ Parnell's deatn reloases the Paris fund, which MeCarthy will at onco apply to the succor of evicted tenants. I violate no confidence or canon of good taste in saying that tho leaders of the Ivish party are fully prepared to find this sum smaller than Parnell represented it, and to discover claims against it which' were hitherto unheard of. He had been lavish in his promises to devise means to divide the bulk of this fund among his adherents, They find thomselves now ina most deplorablo state, without & leader, without a party, without money, and bitterly hated by every respectavlo element in_Irish life, Only a fow of them will be allowed to re- turn to the national foid. -The others may desperately strive to rally the drogs of Feniauism, but the utmost they can do is to keep ircland disturbed dur- ing the winter. Perhaps thoy will not even try todo that. 1doubt if they will try to make a contest in either the Cork or Kil- kenny vacancies. 1u fact, the factional fight'in Ireland which_yesterday was a piti ful yet exasperating affair, is today dead as Julis Cwsar.” ATTACKING PARNELL'S MEMORY. Archbishop Walsh Can Find No Place for Charity. New Yonxk, Oct. 8.—A cablo states that the Dublin Catholic, an official organ of the Catholic hierarchy, prints today a leader written by Archbishop Walsh, The prelato boldly follows Parnell into the grave with the denunciations of the church, He says Mr. Parnell's death Is one of those events which remind the world of God. So far as known, Mr. Parnell died unropentant of the offense agalinst his God and his country. He died plotting fresh discord, while tho cham- plon or tool of fac ho vory lips. 1 © now open charity can seroely find a place.

Healy, member of parliament for North Lougford, and probably Mr. Parnell's most bitter op- ponent, was asked today for an expression of opinion upan tho palltical sitvation. He de- clined to say anything regarding politics, re- marking: “As Mr. Harrington has declined o mako a statoment concerning the inten- tion of bis party, we, for our part, aro de- tormined to maintain a truce for tho present.” A dispatch from Brighton announces the arrival at Walsingham Terrace of Mrs. Dick- fuson, sister of the dead man.

FAVORED THE BURLINGTON. Atchison & Nebraska Company's Charter Will Not Be Forfeited. , Nob, Oct. 8.—[Special to Tne ~John H. Ames. tho referee in the caso of tho State of Nebraska versus the Atchison & Nebraska Railway company, now owned by the Burlington has filed his re port on the case with tho supremo court. This is the case that was 1ustituted to de- clare forfeited the charter of the Atchison & Nebraska Railway company from the alleged fact that it was illegally consolidated with the B. & M. the corresponding injury of the communit s through which the Atchison & Nebraska op- erated its lues, Mr. Ames' findings aro for the defenaunt railrond companies. He gives a dotailod re- view of the evidence adduced and upon tho facts 5o elicited renders his findings. It was ent of the stato and tho testimony of some witnesses that the competitive rates for Lincoln and points between Atchison and Lincoln were destroyed by the consolidation. The referce in his hudings of fact in this charge says that from the ovidence there was no showing that points on the Atchison & Nobraska were especiaily favored over points onthe B, & M. before consolidation. He finds that rebates existod on both roads and his conclusion is that from the evidence, re- vates continued to exist after the consolida- tion and that the evidence shows that rates wero not increascd after the consolidation was effected. Asa further fact the refereo finds that other companies have since invaded the Atchison & Nebraska torritory, and that now o segregate that road from the Burling- ton system, with which itis consolidated, would be practically to utterly annibilate 1t as a commercial azent. Upon tho law poiut in the case, tho question of the illegal consol wdation of the road with the Burlington, Mr, Ames finds that from the evidenco that the consolidation was not in violation of section 3, article X, of the constitution, but was a vulid lease under the provisions of chapter 16 of the compiled statutes. ‘'ho conclusion ot the referee's report is that owing o the building of the new competing lines and from the fact that the Atchison & Nebraska, if operated independently, would be utterly de- stroyed s an instrument of commerce, tho court, in the exercise of its discretion and for the promotion of the public weltare, ought to refuse judgment of ouster, Held to € % Sam Monacus, charged with abducting Julia Lagomasino and taking her to Chicago on September 4, had his case called in police court yesterday afternoon and waived exumi- nation, Monacus was bela to the distriot court iu $1,000 bail, Just think of it, n saving ng establishments througho OUR PRICE LIST 1309 What Are Misfits” They ure custom made clothing of merchant tailors, left on their hands for one reason or another.

Aslongas such plays s “Shenandoan continue to bo written by American dramat- ists, tho groat mass of theator goers have little cause to sigh for a truly Amorican drams Bronson Howard, who has given to tho amusemont world so many brilliant stags pictures, could not have gono to & more fer- tile field for his motif than the valley of the Shonandoah, which was the key to many a trying situation during the memorablo cam- paign of 1564, Located almost in the hoart of the Blue Rulge mountaius, vich in pictur- esqueness, and memorable in the annale of tho war for many sanguinary conflicts, the beau- fiful valloy of Virginia gavo unlimited op portunity for the skilled playwright. And the maste Wd appreciating the limitless possibilities for local color and of- foct. has written a story which is the plonoer of war plays now commencing to demand at- tention of theater goers. Last night *‘Shenandoah” was produced for the third or fourth time in Omaha beforo a very large audienca of interestod people, who followed the fortunes of the men who honored the blue and gray, and the womon who were their devoted sympathizers, with all tho enthusiasm of a first porforman: ‘The company producing the comedy wus in the main satisfactory, although one longed for a little moro snap and vigor among the ladies of the organization. Frank Dayton made a manly Coloael West, his scenes with his sweetheart, Gertrude, boing delightfully nataral, Hardeo Kirkland plaved Genoral Havorill with nico discrimination. Louis Hendricks as General Buckthorn lacked tho gruffness essontial to the churac- ter, nor did ho seemingly appreciato the pos- sibilitios which make thie rolo oue of tho very best in the cast. Captain Heartsease was in tho competent hands of De Mann, while Witham I Gleason mado a dacided Rit as the Irish s goant, Barket, a dolicious bit of comedy work! Miss Mina Gieason played Gertrude Elling- ham very daintily, making much of the char- acter, which is a gom in the way of stago heroines. Miss Graco Atwell was pleasing in tho small part of Madeline. Miss Jessio Stewart as Coustance Haverill, tho perse- cuted wife of General Haverill,was womanly, although 1n the stronger dramatic scones sho lacked the sustained intensity necessary. The play is particularly well mouated. a dotachmont from the Omaha guards giving an air of realism to the scenes in the valley in the garb of union soldiers.
