THE HEALTH OF THE QUEEN PROPOSED AND DECOROUSLY DRANK. Washiwotob, July 81.—Two cases brought br the Chicago and Alton Railroad company against the Pennsylvania company, and one by the Chicago, Bock Island and Pacific Railroad company against the N«W York Central and Hudsafa River Railroad company, were decided by the interstate commerce ocxnmlwloners yesterday. The complaints in than cases charge violar tions of the third section of the act by the defendant companies in refusing certain facilities for receiving, forwarding and delivering passengers to complainants' lines, consisting of through or ooupen tickets, which being afforded to other and competing companies, give, as the complainants allege, undue preference to these oompanlea. Before April 1 it was a custom with all railroads to pay to the agents of other lines commissions on the sales of through tickets reading over the lines that issued the tickets. The Central, for instance, paid about a 25 per cent, commission to a Rock Island agent who sold a through ticket to New York if that ticket took tha passenger over the Central. These commissions often amounted to as much as the salaries the agents received from their own companies. In March the Central and the Pennsylvania combined to abolish the commission business. The most of their connecting Unas agreed to do so, but the complaining llnss, In their action before the commission, refused to discontinue paying commissions. At this the Central and the Pennsylvania refused to allow their agents to sell coupon tickets over the complaining lines. Then this action was brought.

Bess, have posted forfeit for a $500 mounted broadsword contest to a finish, between Aug. 10 and 18, the fight to be until one contestant is conquered or disabled. Mr. Parnell eulogimd Mr. Gladstone for having put his shoulder to tbe wheel, and said that before many months the ex-premier would carry his policy and be rccoguizod as the only great man in British politics. Other* who were now attracting attention were tempters, imitator* and tinkers. Mr. Parnoil wondered how long Englishmen would be contented to see tho government march up tbe hill and down again. Tho recent election* had forced them to make concessions or resign. The English Liberals might be assured that their exertions would not le wasted. Although In Ireland extreme misery had been suffered dqring tho past eighteen months, prime bad diminished and tbe people had turned to constitutional methods of adjusting their grievance*, instead of to physical force. The Liberals migbt claim therein a great success, for the people recognised that through their exertions tbe way had been opened to aa honorable union. If tbe Liberal* failed in their I have not purchased tbe stock of the John* Hopkins university, as stated in some of the newspaper?. I had an option on that stock, and also upon that of several other holders, but I have not exercised those options, nor do I intend now to do so. Tho statement in some of th* papers that I purchased large blocks of the Baltimore and Ohio stock is a mistake. As I have stated, I had options, but circumstances rendered it unnecessary to clom them. Tbe Baltimore and Ohio Railroad company—its properties.

Silken badges, with the inscription in gold: "For the Administration aud Powell," were distributed by tha hundred from tlx tatter's headquarters yesterday afternoon, and all tha talk was to the effect that tha nomination of Campbell would be a direct slap at the president The Campbellitaa, however, say that this assumption is not only gratuitous, but unfounded, and the congressman himself.

"I hare not always voted with tho administration," ha said, "and If my opponents want to they can make tha most of it I am a Democrat, but not a servile one.

If the government honestly and fairly tried to carry out the amendments to the land bill, and if the execution thereof was in no way frustrated, they would never have to use the ooercioo bill, which would become a standing memorial of the time whioh the Tory government of 1887 had wasted. The diminution of ciimo proved the gratitudo of the Irish toward the Liberals, and he trusted that the Irish would long rely upon the good feeling of the Liberals, that even when oppressed, trampled on and evicted they would retaliate •lowly. They should ratnember that the Tory government would not last forever. From self interest the Irish would be fools to give away the splendid position won for them, and they would be moat ungrateful if In any way they should retard the progress of the Liberals In the path of justloo to Ireland.MRS.

On strictly party measures I am a Democrat, but when nonparty measures are concerned, I propose to go on my own judgment It is true that I expressed myself as strongly oppoeed ttD the president'! order regarding the return of tile rebel flags, although I qualified it with an expression of opinion that his action was perfunctory rathsr than purely original. Subsequent events proved that I was right, but had they not I should have adhered to my opinion and expressed it for all it wan worth. If my opponeuta think that a Democratic repreaentative must blindly follow when a Democratic president leads they are welcome; I am not that kind of a man." The Twenty-third Anniversary Celebrated Washington, July 21.—Mrs. Frank Folsom Cleveland, the mistress of the White House, is to-day celebrating her twentythird birthday. She is the youngest mistrees the executive mansion has overbad. It may be said that she is also one tbe loveliest that has ever presided over the home of tbe President of the United States. Tbe severest test that a woman can be pot to Is tbe eriticlsm at her own sex. There is no critic so exacting or severe, and when In connection with this fact it is remembered that Mrs. Cleveland is as popular with the ladies as with tbe sterner part of mankind, It will be admitted that she has gained a wonderful hold upon official Society in Washington. Tbe event fevdky is being observed in the quiet of tbe country home. It lithe second time the anniversary has oocurred since her marriage. At this season of tbe year that* are fa# wry few remaining in Washington who art on terms of Intimacy with Mr*. Cleveland, but, wherever her friends are, she will in doe course of mail receive their felicitations on tbe return of the day. __ Quietly la the Country. BESSEMER IN FLAMES.

A lighted candle ignited the window curtain in a boarding house. lbs house being frame, was soon wrapped in flames. The wind caused the flames to spread rapidly to adjacent buildings. Twelve at the handsomest structures In the embryo city were entirely destroyed. There was no fire engine in town, and citizens who fought the flames so manfully suffered many severe burns. Several persons are missing, and it is supposed they perished in the ftamsa, Loss unknown. Chicago, July 21.—Corn was decidedly the center of attraction at the opening of the board yesterday. The crowd all at once woke up to the fact that there was altogether too much company on the long side of oorn and that the draught had not yet assumed an u» usually dangerous aspect Nearly everybody began selling, and as nearly everybody was long, the pit was soon a seething mass of very excited broken. The few, bears In corn aaw tlr-ir advantage and helped to fan the excltemout into a fiercer flame. August com, whioh opened Jfc. lower at 8SD6, sold down to 91% before the excitement was stayed. Additional drought news came In about the time August got down to 81% and a reaction set in which took it back to 38. At this figure the market became quite steady and firm. After the first recovery from 87ft to 88 a, there was very little life and no nrength in corn. Parties just returned from extensive trips through the central part of the state, report that a larger corn crop was never raised than la being grown this year, and that there is nothing whatever, except a little dry weather, to bnll oorn on; and further, that this could out no figure at all, for with com a couple of feet over a map's head, ae it is mow, all leaned, tasseled and eared, the (round la continually mfiat, having no MkadM whatever to dry out Receipts were lOJoara  the Bxehaaga. The morning session was occupied principally with a discussion of the Worcester county lockout It was thought the strikers would not be supported, but tbe matter was referred to the executive board, which voted to sustain them. The most meager reports of the proceedings are given out, bat it is understood that tbare was vigorous objection to the $50,000 expenses incurred in the lockout, and that harmony does not exist on that ifc'skefflugtoc, who leads the forces of the shoemakers, made sweeping accusation* against tbe general management, but the question of withdrawal has not yet oome up, The only real fight will be over the election of delegates, la which tte administration and anti-administration factions will figure. BUGBNB MARTIN, lake Carey, Wyoming County, Peon's. July 13-2 Mr. Parnell continued: "When the land bill was in the house of lords the barometer fell Sor4 degrees daily to the detriment oC the Irish tonant, but upon ite arrival in the house of commons, even its author waa inclined to turn against tha measure and rerun to reoogniae it Tha barometer then took jumps In the contrary direction, and we, who were formerly unable to keep pace with changes advene to the tenantry, found ouraelvea in a converse difficulty. When this wonderful Unionist government began to undo all that It had done in the housa of lords, I, as an unprejudiced outsider, began to wonder how long practical common sqjse Englishmen who value time on money would stand a government that Imitated the French king in going up a hill on a pleasure march and then down again. Would it not have been better to have adopted the advice at the Cowper commission in the lint placet I suppose they expects* to scraps through without adopting that advice. Row this beautiful Unionist government is admitting in all Us naked simplicity that it will not deal with Irish questions unless convinced that It cannot retain office otherwise.
