July 28.—The report of the rscelpts of fhlamal revenue for tho last Kscml year will show that the prohibition jaws have undoubtedly had some effect •upon the sale of liquors. In Rhode Island, where then has been an apparently serious attempt to enforce the law, there has been a loss to the internal revenue bureau of a considerable sum in the taxes of the last fiscal year as compared with the receipts for the two yean last preceding. The receipts for 1885 from spirits in Rhode Island wero $33,- 148, for 1886 they were $37,023, while for the fiscal year which has just ended they fell to $34,650. The authorities of the state will possibly wonder how it was that the govertiment was able to collect so large a sum under the present state supervision; but the Rhode Island authorities have not been successful la preventing the sal* of beer.

Tolxdo, July 28.—Memorial hall presented • beautiful appearance when the Republic** state convention was called to order yesterday afternoon. From the enormous chandelior which was pendant from the center of the ceiling broad festoons of tri-colored bunting stretched away bo the four comers and sides of the immense room, completely hiding the roof from view. Over the windows and doorways, draped in flags, were banners with the name of Sherman, Foraker, Grant and the roost notable of the generals and admirals of tbe war. London, July 38.—It is now asserted by persons who are in the confidence of tho chief secretary for Irolond that tho proclamation of the Irish National Leaguo will not be promulgated by the Dublin castle government until after the adjournment of parliament. The reason for this delay in enforcing the government's policy of suppression of the league, which was the main purpose of the ooercion bill, is quite obvious. The government is being hard pressed on the land bill, and a crusade against the leaguo, with no specific charge against the organisation, would be suicidal at a time when the ministry experiences great difficulty in parrying tho thrusts already directed against it in its present fight for life. Halifax, N. S., July 38.—The American fishermen captured by tho cruiser Critic on Sunday are receiving the charity of the consular agent Consul George, of Charlottotown, telegraphed Consul General Phelan for Instructions. If the men had been shipwrecked the United States govorment would have taken charge of them and sent them to Gloucester, where they shipped, but not being shipwrecked mariners, the consul was at a loss to know what to do. Consul General Phelan wired instructions to put them on board the first vessel bound for the United States. The first race, a final heat for Junior singles, between G. Strickland, of Don Amateur Rowing club, of Toronto, and D. DDnohue and J. B. Lovell, both of the Nautilus club, of Hamilton, was won by Donohuo in 10:28%. Second race, a double scull, between tho Metropolitan Boat club, of New York, and the Delaware Boat club, of Chicago, was won by the former, after having been fouled by tho Do la wares, in 10:19. Third race, a senior four oareJ shell, was won by the Argonauts, of Tortmto, in 9:15. Tho hardest rowed and prottlost race of the duy was the fourth, a pair oared shell, between Alex. Malcolm and F. M. Oostrich, ol the Modoc Rowing club, of St. Louis; Charles E. Bulger and William Buchanan, of tho Mutual Boat club, of Albany, and F. Freeman and J. Weldon, of the Euroka Boat club, of Newark, N. J. The Modocs won in 10.-00%. The fifth race was the flght of the day. There were threo entries, J. F. Corbott, of the Farragut Boat club, of Chicago; William F. Conley, of the Shawmut Rowing club, of Boston, and J. J. Ryan, of the Bayside Rowing club, of Toronto. Corbett crossod the line first in 9:50%. The last rac was an eight oared shell between the Vespers and Maltas, both of Philadelphia. The Vespers led throughout the course, winning in 8:83%, which is only half a second slower tlpan the fastest record on doad water.

Vermont seems to be the nearest place to paradise for the Prohibitionists. Then is not a brewery in the state, and the government only collected a tax of $1,325 last year for beer sold then. It is even a more .idyllic place for the dairy farmer. The United States did [not collect a dollar in Vermont last year for the manufacture and sale of oleomargarine. While the factory towns of Rhode Island paid to the Federal treasury $84,375 last year as an oloomnrgarine tax, the revenue district in which Chicago is situated paid to the government for oleomargarine taxes alone $260,910 last year. There was a profusion of bunting In every direction, scores of Chinese lanterns suspended from the balcony railing, and a picture of Abraham Lincoln occupied a conspicuous position upon the stago in the rear of the president's chair. The delegates were prompt in getting together, and at 4 o'clock Chairman Brinsmade, of the state central committee, called the body to order and introduced Rev. W. W. Williams, of Toledo, who invoked the divine blessing on the proceedings.Mr. George proceeded to do that. The vessel was a fisherman going home to Gloucester. As soon as Collector Foley learned that Consul George was going to ship the men home in a fishing vessel, he notified the consul, as well as all skippers of American fishing vessels then in port, that any vessel shipping the men Would be Immediately seised for an infraction of the customs law. Mr. George protested against the collector's threatened action, but Mr. Foley reaffirmed his determination. It is not to be supposed tfiat the collector, who is a very cautious official, was acting without instructions from Ottawa. Ihmers' Oat Flakes, Meanwhile the delay Is of gnat advantage to the league, and correspondingly inimical to the government's success In crushing Its active enemy. With full knowledge of the government's Intentions and the time, approximately, of their enforcement, the league has ample time to put its house in order, and the chances are ovorwhelmlngly favorable to the probability that when the government gets ready to suppress its political antagonist nothing will bo found to suppress.

Daniel Ryan of Portsmouth, was selected as temporary chairman. In introducing him Ur. Briusmarie made a brief addrew, in which lie eulogized Senator .Sherman and Governor Foralcer, and referred to the work of tho last Republican legislature in complimentary terms, ills references to Governor Foraker were received with load ap|Dlauie, but when the name of Senator Sherman was mentioned the audience went wild, and the cheers were repeated threo times over. The league's elasticity of organization, tbe ramifications of its power and its almost ubiquitous infiuonoe are the intangible elements with which tljo government will hare to deal, and it is difficult to see how the ponderous machinery of the crimes act, working within the narrow groove* which the resident magistrates and police officials urn pleased to call their minds, can prevail against the evanescent shadow that the peculiar construction of the league permits it to shrink into without impairing its vitality or curtailing its power. Consul General Pholan was again communicated with by wire, and he telegraphed back peremptory instructions to Consul George to ship those men on the first vessel leaving Bouris for a United States port, whether that vessel be Ashing, trading or any other kind of craft, and to immediately report any attempted interference on the psirt of the collector of customs or any other official. Consul General Fhelan is very much irritated at the present position of affairs, and expresses great surprise at what he considers the extraordinary and totally unwarranted action of the Canadian officers. Such conduct, If persisted in and approved by the Dominion government, must necessarily very seriausly strain relations between the two governments, he thinks. The Annie Hodgdon puts into Shelburne to rescue two of her crew lost in the fog, and she is summarily seised and fined $400. Fourteen American fishermen seised for an alleged offense are taken to Bouris in a semi-nude condition, kept there several days on the charity of the consular agent and an effort to tend them home, where they may be fed and clothed, is met with threats of further seizures and fine*, providing that the vessel performing such act of humanity bo a Ashing vessel.

GrahamWafers BMtind by the Pope—The Irish Feoyh Highly CommeBded. TWO ENGINEERS AND A FIREMAN Boston, July 28.—John Boyle O'Reilly has just received from The Pilot's correspondent at Rome the following cablegram: The Arst report from Mgr. Persico, the pope's representative in Ireland, has been received at the Vatican and is most laudatory of the Irish people. Mgr. Persico was sent to Ireland with the Abbot Gualdi by the pope himself to examine into the social and political condition of the Irish. The English intriguers at Some expected that Mgr. Persico would see Ireland through the Puke of Norfolk's eyes and aend such a report to Rome as would oaee tor all esta-angB the pope's sympathies from the cause of Irish home rule. Their malice has defeated itself. To question Mgr. Peraloo's accuracy of judgment is to insult the pope, so they are snared in a trap of thair own devising. Mgr. Persico is well known in the United States, having successfully administered the diooeee of Charles.on, 8. C., and been bishop of Savannah, Ga. He has successfully conducted many exceedingly dolloato diplomatic missions for the pope, whoso unbounded confidence he enjoys. Fresh every "day, lac. per Tho addvees of the temporary chairman was a vigorous one. He denounced the Democracy of tho state in unsparing terms, and declared that it insulted tbe intelligence ot~ the state when it sought to sneak into power on its present platform. From this he proceeded, interrupted every moment with cheers, to say: Instantly Killed by a CollWIon on the Baltimore uud Ohio.

Tiffin, O., July 28.—A special from Albion, lnd., says that as fast train 40, east bound, was nearing Albion Tuesday night, she was flagged in order to let tho west bound freight on the siding. She stopped some distance west of tho switch and the freight backed in. The fireman of the freight signalled the passenger to come ahoad, which she did at full speed. Just at the switch tbe rails spread and the passenger tratn dashed into the engine of the freight, completely wrecking both engines and instantly killing Engineer Cramer, of Garrett, lnd., and Fireman Ed. Koken, of Dayton, both on the express tr in, and Engineer Devine, of Garrett, on the freight. Cramer, as soon as he noticed the rails spreading, applied the air brakes Ad died like a hero at his post. The train was brought to a sudden stop, breaking up tbe platforms of two express and baggage cars, shaking up the passengers terribly, but none were seriously injured. Oae report says the switch lock had been smashed after the freight had backed in on tie switch, with tbe evident intontion of causing the accident. The fireman of the freight was on the steps of his engine and escaped unhurt. Tho ingenuity of the Irish leaders has been equal to tbe formation of an organization capable of meeting and surmounting every obstacle hitherto placed in itB way, and it is not too much to say that they will bo found equal to the occasion of the provisions of tbe law, whose primary object is the destruction of that organization. That the scheme of suppressing tbe leaguo will prove to be utterly futile there is no doubt even in the minds of those whoso interests demand its annihilation.

CANDY, The effect of the coercion act la already visible in tbe financial centres of Ireland, and its power for working evil is demonstrated in a field entirely apart from that in which it was expected to be oppressive. Tbe proclamation of tbe Irish counties has had the result of destroying confidence in the stability of institutions of Investment and capitalized industries, and a general feeling akin to that of a panic prevails. Financial depression and a consequent falling of in trade is markedly observable, and even bank stocks have succumbed to tbe surrounding influskice and dropped to the level of the new standard of valuea. Bank of Ireland stock fell £1 per share yesterday, and is now held at £288 per share, but will probably go lower. albs Choice Mixed, 15c. Newark, N.

Baltimore, July 28.—On the sixth ballot, at tho Democratic state convention yesterday, Eli) u E. Jackson, of Wicomico couuty, received a majority of all tho votes, and was declared the nominee.

July 28.—The report of the rscelpts of fhlamal revenue for tho last Kscml year will show that the prohibition jaws have undoubtedly had some effect •upon the sale of liquors. In Rhode Island, where then has been an apparently serious attempt to enforce the law, there has been a loss to the internal revenue bureau of a considerable sum in the taxes of the last fiscal year as compared with the receipts for the two yean last preceding. The receipts for 1885 from spirits in Rhode Island wero $33,- 148, for 1886 they were $37,023, while for the fiscal year which has just ended they fell to $34,650. The authorities of the state will possibly wonder how it was that the govertiment was able to collect so large a sum under the present state supervision; but the Rhode Island authorities have not been successful la preventing the sal* of beer.

Tolxdo, July 28.—Memorial hall presented • beautiful appearance when the Republic** state convention was called to order yesterday afternoon. From the enormous chandelior which was pendant from the center of the ceiling broad festoons of tri-colored bunting stretched away bo the four comers and sides of the immense room, completely hiding the roof from view. Over the windows and doorways, draped in flags, were banners with the name of Sherman, Foraker, Grant and the roost notable of the generals and admirals of tbe war. London, July 38.—It is now asserted by persons who are in the confidence of tho chief secretary for Irolond that tho proclamation of the Irish National Leaguo will not be promulgated by the Dublin castle government until after the adjournment of parliament. The reason for this delay in enforcing the government's policy of suppression of the league, which was the main purpose of the ooercion bill, is quite obvious. The government is being hard pressed on the land bill, and a crusade against the leaguo, with no specific charge against the organisation, would be suicidal at a time when the ministry experiences great difficulty in parrying tho thrusts already directed against it in its present fight for life. Halifax, N. S., July 38.—The American fishermen captured by tho cruiser Critic on Sunday are receiving the charity of the consular agent Consul George, of Charlottotown, telegraphed Consul General Phelan for Instructions. If the men had been shipwrecked the United States govorment would have taken charge of them and sent them to Gloucester, where they shipped, but not being shipwrecked mariners, the consul was at a loss to know what to do. Consul General Phelan wired instructions to put them on board the first vessel bound for the United States. The first race, a final heat for Junior singles, between G. Strickland, of Don Amateur Rowing club, of Toronto, and D. DDnohue and J. B. Lovell, both of the Nautilus club, of Hamilton, was won by Donohuo in 10:28%. Second race, a double scull, between tho Metropolitan Boat club, of New York, and the Delaware Boat club, of Chicago, was won by the former, after having been fouled by tho Do la wares, in 10:19. Third race, a senior four oareJ shell, was won by the Argonauts, of Tortmto, in 9:15. Tho hardest rowed and prottlost race of the duy was the fourth, a pair oared shell, between Alex. Malcolm and F. M. Oostrich, ol the Modoc Rowing club, of St. Louis; Charles E. Bulger and William Buchanan, of tho Mutual Boat club, of Albany, and F. Freeman and J. Weldon, of the Euroka Boat club, of Newark, N. J. The Modocs won in 10.-00%. The fifth race was the flght of the day. There were threo entries, J. F. Corbott, of the Farragut Boat club, of Chicago; William F. Conley, of the Shawmut Rowing club, of Boston, and J. J. Ryan, of the Bayside Rowing club, of Toronto. Corbett crossod the line first in 9:50%. The last rac was an eight oared shell between the Vespers and Maltas, both of Philadelphia. The Vespers led throughout the course, winning in 8:83%, which is only half a second slower tlpan the fastest record on doad water. Altoona, Pa., July 28.—The Altooui. club has been transferred to Canton, O.

NO. 7 BROOMS, 20 CENTS. beer taxes in Rhode Island $67,539, while the land of steady habits paid a Federal beer tax of $148,633. Vermont seems to be the nearest place to paradise for the Prohibitionists. Then is not a brewery in the state, and the government only collected a tax of $1,325 last year for beer sold then. It is even a more .idyllic place for the dairy farmer. The United States did [not collect a dollar in Vermont last year for the manufacture and sale of oleomargarine. While the factory towns of Rhode Island paid to the Federal treasury $84,375 last year as an oloomnrgarine tax, the revenue district in which Chicago is situated paid to the government for oleomargarine taxes alone $260,910 last year. There was a profusion of bunting In every direction, scores of Chinese lanterns suspended from the balcony railing, and a picture of Abraham Lincoln occupied a conspicuous position upon the stago in the rear of the president's chair. The delegates were prompt in getting together, and at 4 o'clock Chairman Brinsmade, of the state central committee, called the body to order and introduced Rev. W. W. Williams, of Toledo, who invoked the divine blessing on the proceedings.Mr. George proceeded to do that. The vessel was a fisherman going home to Gloucester. As soon as Collector Foley learned that Consul George was going to ship the men home in a fishing vessel, he notified the consul, as well as all skippers of American fishing vessels then in port, that any vessel shipping the men Would be Immediately seised for an infraction of the customs law. Mr. George protested against the collector's threatened action, but Mr. Foley reaffirmed his determination. It is not to be supposed tfiat the collector, who is a very cautious official, was acting without instructions from Ottawa. Ihmers' Oat Flakes, Meanwhile the delay Is of gnat advantage to the league, and correspondingly inimical to the government's success In crushing Its active enemy. With full knowledge of the government's Intentions and the time, approximately, of their enforcement, the league has ample time to put its house in order, and the chances are ovorwhelmlngly favorable to the probability that when the government gets ready to suppress its political antagonist nothing will bo found to suppress.

Daniel Ryan of Portsmouth, was selected as temporary chairman. In introducing him Ur. Briusmarie made a brief addrew, in which lie eulogized Senator .Sherman and Governor Foralcer, and referred to the work of tho last Republican legislature in complimentary terms, ills references to Governor Foraker were received with load ap|Dlauie, but when the name of Senator Sherman was mentioned the audience went wild, and the cheers were repeated threo times over. The league's elasticity of organization, tbe ramifications of its power and its almost ubiquitous infiuonoe are the intangible elements with which tljo government will hare to deal, and it is difficult to see how the ponderous machinery of the crimes act, working within the narrow groove* which the resident magistrates and police officials urn pleased to call their minds, can prevail against the evanescent shadow that the peculiar construction of the league permits it to shrink into without impairing its vitality or curtailing its power. Consul General Pholan was again communicated with by wire, and he telegraphed back peremptory instructions to Consul George to ship those men on the first vessel leaving Bouris for a United States port, whether that vessel be Ashing, trading or any other kind of craft, and to immediately report any attempted interference on the psirt of the collector of customs or any other official. Consul General Fhelan is very much irritated at the present position of affairs, and expresses great surprise at what he considers the extraordinary and totally unwarranted action of the Canadian officers. Such conduct, If persisted in and approved by the Dominion government, must necessarily very seriausly strain relations between the two governments, he thinks. The Annie Hodgdon puts into Shelburne to rescue two of her crew lost in the fog, and she is summarily seised and fined $400. Fourteen American fishermen seised for an alleged offense are taken to Bouris in a semi-nude condition, kept there several days on the charity of the consular agent and an effort to tend them home, where they may be fed and clothed, is met with threats of further seizures and fine*, providing that the vessel performing such act of humanity bo a Ashing vessel. MGR. PERSiCO'S REPORT Saratoga, N. Y., July 88.—The winners at yesterday's meeting of the Saratoga association were Harry Russell, Grisette, Wahoo. Rita and Abraham. GrahamWafers BMtind by the Pope—The Irish Feoyh Highly CommeBded. TWO ENGINEERS AND A FIREMAN Boston, July 28.—John Boyle O'Reilly has just received from The Pilot's correspondent at Rome the following cablegram: The Arst report from Mgr. Persico, the pope's representative in Ireland, has been received at the Vatican and is most laudatory of the Irish people. Mgr. Persico was sent to Ireland with the Abbot Gualdi by the pope himself to examine into the social and political condition of the Irish. The English intriguers at Some expected that Mgr. Persico would see Ireland through the Puke of Norfolk's eyes and aend such a report to Rome as would oaee tor all esta-angB the pope's sympathies from the cause of Irish home rule. Their malice has defeated itself. To question Mgr. Peraloo's accuracy of judgment is to insult the pope, so they are snared in a trap of thair own devising. Mgr. Persico is well known in the United States, having successfully administered the diooeee of Charles.on, 8. C., and been bishop of Savannah, Ga. He has successfully conducted many exceedingly dolloato diplomatic missions for the pope, whoso unbounded confidence he enjoys. Fresh every "day, lac. per Tho addvees of the temporary chairman was a vigorous one. He denounced the Democracy of tho state in unsparing terms, and declared that it insulted tbe intelligence ot~ the state when it sought to sneak into power on its present platform. From this he proceeded, interrupted every moment with cheers, to say: Instantly Killed by a CollWIon on the Baltimore uud Ohio. Chicago, July 28.—First raco yesterday, seven furlongs; Loman first, Little Sullivan second, Hettio S. third; time, Second race, six furlongs; Barney Loe first, Fred Wooley second, Glonfisber third; timo, Third race, mile and a quarter; Wanderoo first, Alamo second, Anna wan third; time. 2:10){.

Tiffin, O., July 28.—A special from Albion, lnd., says that as fast train 40, east bound, was nearing Albion Tuesday night, she was flagged in order to let tho west bound freight on the siding. She stopped some distance west of tho switch and the freight backed in. The fireman of the freight signalled the passenger to come ahoad, which she did at full speed. Just at the switch tbe rails spread and the passenger tratn dashed into the engine of the freight, completely wrecking both engines and instantly killing Engineer Cramer, of Garrett, lnd., and Fireman Ed. Koken, of Dayton, both on the express tr in, and Engineer Devine, of Garrett, on the freight. Cramer, as soon as he noticed the rails spreading, applied the air brakes Ad died like a hero at his post. The train was brought to a sudden stop, breaking up tbe platforms of two express and baggage cars, shaking up the passengers terribly, but none were seriously injured. Oae report says the switch lock had been smashed after the freight had backed in on tie switch, with tbe evident intontion of causing the accident. The fireman of the freight was on the steps of his engine and escaped unhurt. Tho ingenuity of the Irish leaders has been equal to tbe formation of an organization capable of meeting and surmounting every obstacle hitherto placed in itB way, and it is not too much to say that they will bo found equal to the occasion of the provisions of tbe law, whose primary object is the destruction of that organization. That the scheme of suppressing tbe leaguo will prove to be utterly futile there is no doubt even in the minds of those whoso interests demand its annihilation.
