A Large Audience at Chicago Witnesses the Experts Wield the Cue — Large Stakes to the Winner—A Hard Fought —AT— Contest—Won by the Wlsard. WHOLESALE. Marlboro, Mass.. Dec. 18.—The arrest of Dillon, O'Brien, Harris and Sheehy has caused great excitement here, where the work of the National Irish league attracts more interest probably than in any other village of its size in America. Rev. P. A. McKenna, a vice-president of the league, spoke as follows on the subject: The government has made another mistake in arresting these gentlemen, and it's an act which calls for the condemnation of every lover of justice and of his kind. The question is simply this: Chicago, Doc. 18.—Before the doors of Central Music hall opened last night for. the Slossou-Schaofer billiard match every reserved scat in tho hall had been Fold and a large crowd flocked about tho liall waiting for the doors to open. 'The match was 500 points, cushion caroms, for $2,000 a side and all the receipts to the winner. Promptly at 8 o'clock Siosson and Schaefer entered the hall. As they sauntered down the aisle in tho direction of tho platform tliey were loudly applauded by the 1,500 people in.the hall. No time was lost in proceoding to the commencement of the evening's entertainment John W. McCullough, of St. Louis, stepped forward to make tho opening address. He ■aid that it was unnecessary to introduce the players, they were too well known. The game would be played on its merits, and the best man would win. He named J. A. Thatcher as umpire for Schaefer and Eugene Carter for Siosson, and as referee Henry Rhines, of Chicago. Schaefer won the bank and selected the black ball. He shot in after the red as it stood on the spot. He hit his mark, but failed to move the white ball at the other end of the table. With the exception of a phenomenal draw by Schaefer in his half of the second inning, neither player did any work until .the sixth inning, when Siosson made 14 buttons. In the seventh inning Schaefer, by skilful nursing, made 48. In the fourteenth inning Siosson, although finding the balls in bad condition, succeeded in piling up 15 caromf in a series of pyrotechnic three, four and Ave cushion shots. Schaefer scored only 3 buttons In his portion of this inning. The game dragged until the twenty-eighth inning, neither plnyer appearing able to get the balls where he wanted them. Siosson aroused enthusiasm in his half of the nineteenth by making a furious two cushion reverse "English" shot In the twenty-eighth, however, Schaefer scat the spheres spinning all around the table aud rattled out 28 ordinary caroms. Siosson followed with a run of 12. The score at this time was: Schaefer, 131; Siosson, 99. The first shot made an ugly scalp wound, the bullet glancing off from the skull and falling on the floor. The seco&d shot took more serious effect, striking Shreeve in the middle of his book, passing through his left lung ahd lodging in the mnsoles in front ot the shoulder. Piatt made his escape and has not yet been arrested. The Stock of CIMSIIU MIS The senate then passed the following: House bill extending tho free delivery system to cities, villages and boroughs containing a population of 50,0C0, or postoflice revenue of $10,000; senate bill authorizing the issue of money orders or postal notes at a fee of three cents; house bill authorizing employment of mail messengers in the postal service.Shreeve was rendered Insensible by the ■h«ck and loss of blood, and did not regain BRASS GOODS. Every one admits that large reductions are to be made in the rents all over Ireland. The tenant farmers have, under the guidance of the league, agreed to offer a fair rent, after allowing for these reductions, to their landlords. If the landlords refuse the tenants, then they hand this money to the duly appointed representatives of the league, to be held by them until such time as the landlords see fit to accept it. Dillon, O'Brien Shd Sheehy have acted as treasurers of the tenant farmers, rent and thus helped on what is now called the tenant plan of campaign. Yon may say that it is a violation of justice to allow the tenant to fix his own rent. In this case it is not. The tenant farmer has rights as well as the landlord, but the landlord, in the vast majority of cases, has thus far ignared these rights. The present plan of campaign in an attempt to protect the fair rights of both parties. The rights of the farmer are an honest share in the agricultural products of the land, an honest sliare in the permanent improvements he has made, an honest share in the productiveness of the soil, and an undisturbed possession of his farm while he improves it The landlord has a right to a fair rent for the present status of his claim to the land. consciousness for an hour. He walked to the railroad depot and told the agent there what had happened. If the expressions of the trade are any gnide, we judge we have very pretty and cheap articles of this sort. —AT— No reason is given for Piatt committing the act, but it is thought that he and Shreeve had quarreled ove* the matter of wages. It is thought that Piatt had gone to Oyster Bay, where he has friends. A warrant has been issued for his arrest, and he will probably be apprehended. Shreeve was in a very low condition, and the physician in attendance says that his age will scaroely permit his recovery. Coons & Ullman's Trade Palace A bill was introduced by Mr. Aldrich, of Rhode Island, authorizing the secretary of the treasury to receive 4 and per cent bonds, and to issue in exchango for them per cent, bonds, payable In 1907, but not to be subject to call so long as other higher interest bonds are outstanding.

SECRETARY ENDICOTT'8 DILEMMA. Did He Sign a Report Without First The house passed the sundry civil appropriation bilL , Washington, Dec. 18. —Secretary of War Endicott will probably be stirred up by a resolution of congress calling for all the dispatcher and orders of the Apache campaigns of Gens. Crook add Miles. Several members of the house military oommitte have noticed the contMuliotory fact that Gen. Miles is censured in the annual report of the secretary of war for disobedienoe of orders, and then follows a statement rewarding Gen. Miles by increasing the scope of his command instead of ordering him before a court martikL A number of congressmen want to -see the dispatches and orders so as to judge of his queer disobedience which is rewarded instead of punished. It is whispered in army circles that Mr. Endicott is in a very embarrassed position; that he did not know there'was any censure of Miles in his report until his attention was called to It after its publication. This must be *rue, because Gen. Miles was a guest at dinner at the secretary of war's house the very night the report was given out, and it is not reasonable to suppose that Mr. Endicott would have selected as an honored guest an officer formerly oensnred by him. Heading It? The house at the night session passed eighteen pension bills, and at 10:05 o'clock adjourned.  WALKING ON THE WATER, CONSIGNED TO US We must remember that any contract which would exclude even the hu/nblest from his share in the common inheritance of the land ia not only an injustice to that man, but is also an attempt to frustrate the benevolent Intentions of the Creator. The tenant is one of the contracting parties and the landlord is the other. Both have rights, and neither is bound to the impossible. The terms ought to be mutually agreed upon, or else wrong may be done. The tenant, through his representatives in the last parliament, endeavored to take this whole question of the present fair price oat of the hands of both landlord and tenant, and have it submitted to the judicial tribunal of the country. Two bills were brought In for that purpose, but the English parliament rejected both. A New Depart or* for Aqnatlo Fains Seekers. New Yobk, Dec. 18.—Alphouse King, the water walker, who tried to walk across the Niagara river last Saturday, yesterday attempted to walk on the water from the Bartholdi status to the Brooklyn bridge. Harry Webb and two friends were in a skiff accompanying him. King was dressed in an ordinary suit, except that on his feet he wore hollow shoes 82 inches long, 8 inches wide and 9 inches deep. He did not carry a balance pole. It was windy, and the water was rough. King had great difficulty in keeping liU balance, and progressed very slowly. When approaching the turn around the battery the waves dashed agaii at the walker, and he suffered from cold. Webb was afraid the boat would upset, and was nearly frozen. He beckoned King to walk faster. King tried to increasa his pace, but the wind and strong current prevented him from doing so. Finally, unable to make headway, he gave up the struggle. He was taken aboard the boat, brandy was given him and his limbs were rubbed while the boat was rowed to the battery, where all landed. King says he will not make another attempt here while this weather lasts. He thinks his feat was the greatest ever accomplished in rongh water. He was on the water an hour and five minutes. He has walked across the Mississippi, and walked a mile and a half on the Ohio by one of the Largest Importing Houses in the United States. An immense assortment of From this time until the forty-first Inning goose eggs were frequent Schaefer did not catch as many as Sloeson, bnt both got enoagh to nauseate their backers as well as themselves. In the forty-first, however, Schaefer poked the balls along the upper rail for 28 beauties, a three cushion draw, with considerable "English" on the cue ball, being the feature of this run. Sloeson was playing in hard luck and with poor judgment. The game was a bad one, and the superstitious sports attributed the miserable playing to the presence of a black cat, which waficed arcund the table several times just before the begfcining of the game, which hid to be dragged oat by two ushers before the players took the cue. For twenty-three innings the biggest rur did not exceed 15, which were made by Schaefer in the sixty-third inning. At the end of the sixty-third the score stood: Schaefer. 284; Slosson, 198. The average at the close of the forty-sixth inning was: Slosson. S 8-46; Schaefer, 4 18-40. TOYS, DOLLS. BI8QUE FIGURES, COMB AND BRUSH CA8C6, BRA8S Q00D8, PORCELAIN WARE, They sowed the wind, they now reap the whirlwind. They forgot that the system of land tenure in Ireland, at the present day, is no longer a system of landlord ownerships exclusively. By the law at present, the tenant, aa well as the landlord, is considered to have au ownership in the land. But the landlords do not wish to practically recognize thir. dual ownership. The honest tenant farmer offers a fair rent, and it seems to be about time that he should have his turn in fixing the terms. O'Brien, Dillon and Sheehy ate aiding them in this course, but the landlord influence in Ireland is still strong enough to have had them arrested. It ia an unjust and indefensible act.

In the sixty-ninth Schaefer recovered himself and made 36 caroms along the upper and lower rails. This spurt was followed by 7 goose eggs in Jake's soore. Slosson in the seventy-ninth inning made a run of 29, including a splendid across rail shot at thC upper end of the table. At the ninetieth inning the score stood: Schaefer, 431; Sloe son, 831, the contestants being just an even 100 apart By this time Slosson seemed to realize that he was away behind, and, taking a fresh grip on his cue, he drove the balls into a group, and held them in a corner until he had counted 22 buttons.

The drill, both in oompany movements and the manual of arms, was performed largely under the tactics of Casey, but many movements were made wholly novel and not recognized by any of the tactic writers.
