If the works were there the company would make a saving of $76,000 on the 88,000 tons of iron used in a year. from Trenton to Chatanooga. Surprised and Shocked bj American Sympathy for Parnell. Newark, N. J. March 21.—After Ferdinand Mutler, a milkman living on the road between Lyons farms and Irvington had left home in the morning to serve his customers, Joseph Salzman, his hired man, enticed the three children of the family into the barn, tied their hands and feet and buried them in the hay, went to the house and attempted to assault Mrs. Mutler, and on being desperately resisted, struck her on the head with a hammer, rendering her unconscious Salzman then ransacked every trunk, box and drawer in the house in search of money, but overlooked a pocket book containing $150 and secured only a silver watch. While he was thus engaged Mrs. Mutler regained consciousness, but fearing another attack she lay still, feigning death. Sajzman, before leaving tne house, bent over her and felt her face and was apparently satisfied that she was dead. He then went out. Mrs. Mutler thinking he had gone away, staggered to the door intending to give the alarm. Salzman had not left the premises, and on seeing him Mrs. Mutler started to run, but was overtaken and dragged into the barn by Salzman, who thereupon struck her on the head with the hammer, and while she lay senseless on the floor beat her with a club until it seemed certain that she was dead. H« then fled and has not yet been found. Washington, March 21.—Promoters and engineers connected with the Nlcaraguan ship canal have completed a remarkable model in plaster of Paris which has been on exhibition here privately for the past two days. It has attracted a great deal of attention. A. Cheney, of New York, president of the Canal Construction company, who has been in Washington for several days, says work will be begun at once on the canal. Operations will first begin at Grevtown, on the eastern side, where the harbor approaches have to be deepened and a railroad has to be built acrosB the swampy land ten miles into the interior, and where, on the uplands, the company proposes to build quarters for their workmen, using the railroad to convey the men to ana from their work in the harbor to their homes. The forests will at once be cleared away along the proposed route of the canal from Graytown to Lake Nicaragua and a telegraph line will be built across to the Pacific coast. Ample funds are in hand, and within a few months, Mr. Cheney says, the work of carry;ng out this great engineering project, to which he intends to devote nis entire energies, will be fully under way.

Milwaukee, March, 21.—Pauline, the fifth daughter of Chief Justice Fuller, of the United States supreme court, eloped with J. M. Aubery, of Chicago, and was married at the Kirby house in this city by a justice of the peace. London, March 21.—The intimation that many members of the United States congress and officials holding responsible positions under that government have given a quasi indorsement to the cause represented by Mr. Parnell and championed by Mr. Gladstone, as a refutation of the statement that none but the Irish mobs in the great cities and those who sold their votes sympathize with home rule, has created considerable discussion here and in the provinces. The conservative papers profess to detect the fine hand of Mr. Blaine in the objectionable measure and charitably fear for the future of the nation which him intrusted him with the helm of state. They are also vexed, if not indignant, at what they regard as a meddling obtrusiveness, and cite' it as another instance of "the boorishnesa which appears to be inseparable from republican institutions." To be sure, one of them remarks, some members of the British parliament openly sympathized with the Confederates during the American civil war, but it would have been impossible to have obtained the signatures of a great majority of that body to an address of encouragement to General Lee during the progress of hostilities. Tne Chronicle sarcastically alludes to the refusal of Mayor Grant to veto the flag raising edict of the New York board of aldermen, and the subsequent appearance of the Irish flag on the city nail on Monday, and contrasts this course with the "manly independence" of Mayor Hewitt during his tenure of office, not at all to the advantage of the former official. Washington, March 21.—The president sent the following nominations to the senate to-day: 100 dozen boys Cloth Hats 18 cts each. Frederick D. Grant, of New York, to be envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary of the United States to Austria-Hungary. We are acknowledged leaders for Percale and Flannel Shirts. The couple arrived here at 6:80 in the evening. About 9 o'clock the young man informed the clerk of the hotel that he desired the services of a justice, and Justice Gregory was sent for and arrived within fifteen minutes. The worka employ 1,800 men, paying them $1,000,000 in wages. The works were established in Trenton in 1848. John C. New, of Indiana, to be consul general of the United States at London. At the office of Cooper, Hewitt & Co., 17 Burling slip, nobody could speak with authority and neither member of Jhe firm has yet returned to New York. But it was not believed that the removal of the mills would necessitate a removal of the offices and that neither of the exmayors would be lost to New York. All (ur men's Shirts are made 36 inches long and warranted to fit. Also a marshal for the western district of Texas and a long list of promotions in the army and engineer corps. It is stated that President Harrison has tendered the nomination of commissioner of pensions to Corporal James Tanner. The ceremony was a brief one, and the justice, who is a very prosaic old gentleman, put on no extra frills. He did not know that the bride was the daughter of the chief justice of the United States, and neither did any of those who were * present outside of the contracting partlM. • Wheitr the ceremony was concluded, the old justice called for witnesses, and two young men Were captured in the billiard room and ran to affix their signatures to the necessary document. The knot was legally and firmly spliced. Mrs. Aubery, nee Pauline Fuller, is 10 years of age, highly educated and a remarkably handsome woman. J. Matt Aubery, Jr., is 28 years of age. He is the son of the general western agent of the Merchants Dispatch Fast freight line. J. M. Aubery, Sr., has been a resident of Chicago since 1876, when he left Milwaukee. He is well known there, and Congressman Isaac Van Schaick is one of his most intimate friends. Young Aubery is employed in his father's office in Chicago. He is a handsome young fellow.

When released they were in a starving condition. Warrants have been issued for the arrest of Mri. Horner and an effort will be made to ascertain her whereabouts J bring her back for trial. A HeartleM Mother. TO JOIN TAMMANY HALL From all indications the nomination at Whitelaw Reid to be minister of France will not go through the senate unscathed. Democratic senators have announced their intention of delaying confirmation if possible until they can make some feeling remarks about Mr. Reid and The New York Tribune. There is no doubt that the nomination will be confirmed eventually. Well informed senators are the authority for the statement that Eugene Schuyler's declination of the assistant secretaryship of state was not because of any intimation from friends in Washington that he would not be confirmed, nor because of any hint from Mr. Blaine that he would like to withdraw the nomination in view of discoveries of passages in Schuyler's American Diplomacy harshly criticising prominent Republicans. Oliey say that the declination was voluntary with Mr. Schuyler and was influenced by no communications of any sort from Washington. derwear.

Ex-President Cleveland Has Been Elected London, March 21.—The war of the Liberals upon Attorney General Webster, owing to his questionable connection with The Times' attempt to ruin th« Irish party, wages more bitter than ever, and its scope is constantly enlarging. The Liberal leaders are now directing their assaults toward the Unionists, ths attitude of those renegades in the matter of defending Webster affording the Oladstonians an excellent opportunity to pay off old scores. So persistent have the Liberals become in tneir endeavon to connect the government and its adherents with the contemptible and dishonorable acts of The Times' henchmen that the position of the Unionists has become almost unendurable, and it is freely asserted that the latter contemplate requesting the Conservatives to allot them two benches on the Tory side of thC house, in order to escape what they term the insults of the Liberals. Such amove would destroy the last trace of party distinction possessed by the Unionists and throw them bag and baggage into the ranks of the Tories, wkerethey really belong. Getting Warm for Unionists. a Member of Tammany and Will be Initiated with Mr. Vilas. New York, March 21.—Ex-President Grover Cleveland has not divorced himself from politics. It was confidently expected on his retirement from thC White House that he would devote himself entirely to the practice of his profession, and it was even asserted tl.at rather than be mixed up with the Democratic factions in this city he contemplated securing a residence in Westchester county. Men's choice New Neckwear, 100 patterns to choose from at 15 cts each, value 25 cts. Agency for the most popular Corsets in the United States. Windmer for Supervising Architect. Philadelphia. March 21.—It is reported here that the president has tendered the office of supervising architect of the treasury to George S. Windmer, of this city. He is one of the leading architects of Philadelphia and the designer of fome of the finest buildings, including the Masonio Temple ana the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Windmer waa born in Philadelphia and was educated at Girard college. He has been the architect of the Girard estate for several years. As near as can be learned the acquaintance of the bride and groom began About three years ago. Justice Fuller, who was then plain Lawyer Fuller, lived with hi* eight daughters on Lake avenue, only a short distance from the home of young Aubery. The young people first met at a party given in the neighborhood. An attachment sprung up between them and when it became apparent it was opposed by the Fullers. Miss Pauline declared, however, that she would marry whom she pleased and her father recoginized her right to do as she pleased. Mrs. Fuller continued to oppose the match. That neither this expectation or assertion had a foundation in fact is made manifest when it is known that Grovei Cleveland has been elected a member of the Tammany society and will "ride the goat" at the Fourteenth street wigwam on the first meeting in April, immediately after his return from his Cuban jaunt. Mr. Cleveland will be supported on the occasion of his initation by his ex-eecr®- tary of state, Thomas F. Bayard and ex- Secretary of Navy Whitney, both old members of the Columbian order,and at the same meeting his ex-secretary of the interior, William F. Vilas, will be made a Tammany brave. Our new 50 cent Corset is a beauty. The journals most friendly to the United States sincerely regret the publication of such remarks as Admiral Porter is credited with making concerning a possible war between that country and Germany, The North German Gazette hesitates to believe such of the astounding language of the admiral as it finds in an English paper, and awaits the arrival of its American files before commenting upon it, and it is possible that v/ explanation will be requested by the government of the authorities at Washington.

Embroideries at prices guaranteed fully 25 per cent lower than actual value. 100 dozen Ladies' fast Black Hose at 10 cents a pair, actual value 15cts. 50 dozen ladies' lull regu lar made Hose, 40 Gauge, 50 cent goods at 29 cts a pair. New York, March 81.—John C. New, who is stopping at the Gilsev house, had this to say to a reporter who asked him about the English mission: The President has already selected a man for the English mission. I saw the president the other day and he told me that he had made a selection, bat he did not give me the name. I eannot sire yon any Idea who the fortunate man Is, because the president never even Intimated. But he Is a good man, I have no doubt. Mr. Cleveland In Florida. London, March 21.—The mystery surrounding the suicide of Miss Helen Louise Buttrick, of Milford, N. H., the young student at the Berlin Academy of Music, whose body was found in the River Spree on Saturday* is still unsolved. The only clew to her motives for destroying herself is the word "verzweiflung'r(deepair) written in her diary last Wednesday, the day on which she disappeared. Despair la a Foreign Land. Jacksonville, Fla., March 31.—Col. J. E. Hart, president of the board oi trade, and FT W. Hawthorne, of The Times-Union, called upon Mr. Cleveland and extended to the party an invitation to visit Jacksonville on the return trip. The invitation will undoubtedly be accepted. The party breakfasted in their car, and subsequently proceeded in a private car to - St. Augustine, where tnej were met at the Union station by over 000 people, the Ponce de Leon full band ana a long line of carriages. Mr. and Mrs. H. M Flagler escorted them to the Ponce de Leon hotel, where Mr. Cleveland was assigned the same room occupied by him last year. In the morning the baths at the Alcazar were inspected, and in the afternoon a two hours' drive was taken over the city. An informal reception was held at the hotel' last night. The party will leave for Tampa at noon today, thence by ship to Cuba direct. Misd Fuller was in Chicago visiting friends, when the arrangements for the elopement were quietly made. The parties met at a candy store and from there went to the depot and took the 8:80 train for Milwaukee. While awaiting parental forgiveness Mr. and Mrs. Aubery propose to remain ill Milwaukee, where they have quarters at the Plankinton. To Boy Philadelphia Ship*. London, March SI.—It is now admitted bv diplomats in Berlin that Prince Bismarck's efforts to form an alliance between Germany and England have failed completely. Emperor William was exceedingly desirous of contracting the alliance and it is understood that he still has hopes of bringing it about. It is this hope which has induced him to invite the Prince of Wales to visit Berlin. It is rumored the punishment that has been inflicted upon Dr. Gallagher in Chatham prison was not so much due to his infractions of the rules of the institution as to his refusal to submit to the demands of Mr, Soames, counsel for The Times, that he give testimony favorable to that paper's case before the Parnell commission. The prison. authorities deny that Gallagher has been disciplined, but it id nevertheless positively knoivn that he has. Bismarck Can't Seduce Salisbury. Striken Appeal for Aid. New York, March 21.—C.

Fall River, .Mass., March 21.—The manufacturers refused to consider the proposal to refer the weavers controversy to the state board of arbitration. They declare that they will not yield a particle and that, the weavers must return to work. The weavers have issued an appeal to the public for sympathy and aid. They state that they submitted to various reductions of wages when business was dull and are now asking only to have wages restored to something like whst they were Cvu yearn u£G. The mills are making larger profits than they did then. The appeal declares that though the manufacturers are solidly or ganized, they are trying to crush out organization among laborers. The struggle interests labor everywhere. If the assired advance is made, all mill employes in New England especially, will receive a like benefit. Contributiona can be sent to P. J. Connolly, postoffice box 718, Fall River. Mr. Connolly is secretary of the weavers executive committee. It is said that when the state arbitrators called on the manufacturers they were very unpleasantly treated and were told that their interference was not desired.
