A CLEVELAND special to the Chicago Tribune says that "local leaders of the Knights of Labor there regard the end of the order in its present form as very near. They say that Powderly has been con­ quered by the Home Club clique and that his recent denials of the trouble in the or­ ganization are not calculated to strengthen him with the conservati%e element. Its candidate at Richmond, Ya., in October next will probably be Tom Barry, of Mich­ igan--formerly of Cleveland--the axmaker and present member of the Executive Board. He will be likely to lead the Anti-Home- Clubbers.

THE Washington crop report for June shows that the condition of spring wheat is 98h per cent., against 97 per cent, a year ago, with practically the same acreage as then. Winter wheat is stated to be from an average to a high crop in those States which produce the largest quantities in normal years, but its condition is 2 per cent, lower than a month ago, being now given as 92.7 per cent. The statistician says that the prospect is still good for a little more than twelve bushels to the acre, which statement is understood to apply to the whole crop. This yield would give, approximately, about 300,000,000 bushels of winter wheat, or a total of 400,000,000 bushels of both kinds. FOREIGN.

Despite their desperation the rioters hurled their mis siles with regularity and precision, as if they had been drilled in stone-throw­ ing. When the men in front had ex­ hausted their ammunition they would retire to the rear to receive fresh armfuls from the women, and thus make way for their comrades with new supplies. Some of the stone throwing was quite extra­ ordinary. One man threw a stone with such vigor that it crashed through a window, struck a rear wall, nud rebounded with such force that it 6truck and hurt a policeman. The better armed of the rioters carried what wo call hero "Belfast kidneys." These are stones about 5'<i inches long, 3 inches broad, and weigh on anaveragc about 1'., pounds.

The dispatches indicate a terrible statl of affairs. Herbert Gladstone attributes the reign of terror to Lord llan- i o ph Churchill's violent speeches. John Morley, Chief Secretary for Ireland, is in- vestigiiing the troubles. An Associated Press reporter who was an eye-witness of ih * rio!i»g, tells what he saw on the last nrght of the reign of terror: After thi ir day's labor had ended thousands of v or*.n-!nteii tutlurod in the vicinity of the i<owvits Hill police station.

Archbishop Levre and sjver.il i'reBltyterian clergymen, after this, implored the 5nol> to disperse. Their ad­ dresses proved altogether useless, and even while the clergymen wtro speaking the rioters kri t up a desultory stouo-throwing at the po­ lice. ui e stone struck a divine squarely in the race and liurt him severely. While all this was going on at the Bowers Hill barracks a mob had tnk. ii posstssiou of York street. They first concentrated in front of a wine store kept by a Catholic named McKenna. T1k> building was soon seized and nreckti?, und all of McKenna's stock of wines w as emptied in the street. This mob then pro­ ceeded to McOloskey's tavern. The police had taken warning and got there first. A set fight took piaee. It was waged with desperation on both sides. The police tired twenty-four rounds of ouckshot at the rioters, but the mob finally drove them away and smashed McCloskey's tavern to pieces, distributing the liquor to all who would drink or carry liquor awav. Several of the rioters were wounded in this fight and left help­ less in the street by their comrades, who, mad­ dened with liquor and excitement, rushed to the work of wreck aud pillage. A number of other taverns were destroyed aud all their stocks of wine, whisky and beer thrown out to the crowd in the streets, who drank it ravenously or carried it away in jugs and buckets. *In the latter work scores of women and children were engaged all the time the rioting lasted. Toward midnight the mob, after having wrecked and looted all the taverns in the vicinity, re­ turned to McCloskey's and set the house on fir-*. The glare attracted the police, who re­ formed and marched down there to put out the fire and save the town from a conflagra­ tion. They had to fight for every foot of the way they made. At times,' when the flames flared high, the sight of > the uniformed officers scattered among the mob, filling the street from house to house, each officer fighting on his own account and all in the Bume direction, every man shouting or cursing, the women and children at the win­ dows shrieking and gesticulating, was terrible. Finally the ploice got together and carried on tlieir battle with buckshot. This eventually scattered tho mob.

Schleier's first attempt to give an alarm was a failure, owing to his not understanding the working of the box, and when he saw that no apparatus responded he telephoned to the Twelfth-Street Station, from which point the fire depart- ment was notified. • When the department arrived the two buildings were enveloped in fames. The Work of subduing the fire was brief. En- Cine No. 25 first reached the scene. Capt. fcchimmels placed his men, and himself hurried to the rear where he elevated a lad­ der and raised the windows. As the smoke lifted he beheld a terrible sight. Huddled together in one room whither they had rushed in their race for life lay eight human beings. Capt. Schimmels' men conveyed them to the sidewalk as rapidly as possible, where they were identities! as follows: Michitl Murphy, aged 45, an employe of the South Division Kailway Company. Mrs. Annie Murphy, wife of Michael, aged 40. Nellie Murphy, -agetd 12. Anni * Murphy, a^ed 10. Aggie Murphy, aged 1. » Mrs. Mary Durkin, aged 28. Patsy Lavin, aged 4, a son of Mrs. Dur­ kin. The firemen dime very near missing the only survivor of the terrible experience on that floor, the tiny .'i-weeks-old child of Mrs. Durkin. A heavy shawl, it seems, kept out the heat and smoke and saved its life. The child is doing well at the Coun­ ty Hospital. Exploring the ruins further the firemen discovered the body of William Hahn, a butcher, aged 65, in a bedroom in the rear of the second story at No. 731. The old man lived there with his son William. The latter saved his wife and children and jumped from the front window to the street. He aroused his father, and thought he might make his way out alone, but, being so feecle, the old man succumbed. John Bawleigh, who occupied the ground floor of No. 733, stated yesterday that this was the third tifiae within a year the prem­ ises had been fired. He reveits to the ar­ rest of a man named Savage for burglary a year ago, in which Mr. Kawleigh and his • father, the owner of No. 733, assisted. The friends of the prisoner, who received five years in the penitentiary, it is said, swore revenge against the liawleighs, and two days after the arrest the premises were on fire. Nine days later the building was a?ain fired. Each time rags saturated with oil were found in the basement. Kawleigh and the watchman say that the flames seemed to break out simultaneously from several parts of the building. THE LATE DR. DI0 LEWIS. FALL OF A UKAKU STAND. Shocking Accident 011 the St. Louis Race­ course--One Reporter Killed and Several IiOured. [8t. Louis telegram.] During the contest for Ihe Eclipse stakes at the fair grounds the stand occupied by the preBs representatives collapsed and fell with a crash, carrying down with it the occupants a$d «(|tfchiq|; those standing un­ derneath. The following is a list of the killed and most seriously injured: Charles Dyer, assistant sporting editor of the St. Louis Republican, sustained severe internal injuries, from which he soon died. Charles K. Osborne, agent of the Associ­ ated Press, spine severely injured. Joseph B. McCullagh, managing editor of the Globe-Democrat, wrist and ankle sprained. C. F. Bottoue, of Silver City, Colorado, shoulder broken, also injured about the head. Patrick Skousle, shoulder broken. A. L. Cary, bruised about the head and limbs. August Gessler, arm broken. A. H. Spink, editor of the Sporting News, had his hands and legs badly bruised. A. L. Carey, of the Chicago Inter Ocean, was so badly hurt that he fainted, and had to be taken away. Chas. K. Lush, ©f the Chicago News, and Harry Palmer, of the Chicago Tribune, were bruised about the legs and arms, and Lush had to be helped off the ground. N. C. Burke, of the St. Louis Republican, was badly hurt about the fate and head. Capt. Bellaires, of the St. Louis Republican, and Tom Gallagher, the well-known horseman and journalist, were so" ba'dly bruised that they had to quit work. Many others were slightly injured. The accident occurred during the last half mile of the race, when Miss Woodford forged ahead of Alta and took the lead. Every eye was stiained to catch the exact position of the horses, and those nearest the rail leaned over in excitement while those from behind crowded up so as to not lose sight of the least detail of the race. The com­ bined weight of all these spectators on one part of the stand proved too great, and the accident followed. It is expected that all of the injured will have recovered within a few days. THE PREMIER DEFEATED. The Home-Rule Bill Fails to Pass a Second Reading--The Victory of ihe Opposition Won by a Vote of 341 to 311. LLondon cablegram. 1 The Government was defeated by a ma­ jority of thirty on the second reading of the home-rule bill. The vote on the bill was 311 for the measure and 341 against it. Mr. Gladstone moved an adjournment until Thursday and the motion was adopted. Mr. Gladstone entered the House of Commons at 4:55 o'clock this afternoon (7th) and proceeded straight to his seat. When his presence was noted he was greet­ ed with tremendous cheering. The Premier wore a white rose in his lapel. The House of Commons was crowded to its utmost capacity at the hour of opening the session. The Opposition loudly cheered John Bright and Lord Harrington as they entered and took their places. The Parnellites were all in good voice, and they gave Mr. Gladstone an enthusiastic welcome. The excitement during division had no parallel in the history of the House of Commons. Lord Randolph Churchill first discovered the Government was defeated, and by waving his hat and indulging in •tlier joyful demonstrations aroused the enthusiasm of members of the Opposition, who, rising, waved their hats and cheered again and a^ain. When the figures were announced the noise was deafening. Par- nellitt s challenged the vote. O'Connor called for cheers for the Grand Old Man, which were given with gusto by the Gov­ ernment supporters. Sir William Har- conrt and his companions rose and bowed to Gladstone, who was somewhat embarrassed. The Parnellites called for groans for Chamberlain, which were given with shouts of "TraitorV and '.'Judas Is- cariot!" Chamberlain merely laughed. When order was restored Gladstone rose, white and trembling, and moved to adjourn until Thursday. Healey and O'Connor again challenged the vote, saying they would not offer any opposition, but wished to express their repugnance of the conduct of many members of Gladstone's party, During the hubbub Gladstone, wearing a haggard look, loft cheered by his opponents. ̂ Dr. Dio Lewis, tbe Well-Known Hygienic „ Beformer and Author, Died Hot Long. ; i Ago at His Home in Yonkars, H.Y. r * In February Jie was thrown from his horse, receiving a slight wound on the left leg, and some weeks afterward unusual fatigue in walking was followed by erysipe­ latous inflammation of the wounded leg. A serious phlegmonous erysipelas in a few days implicated the entire limb, and finally extended to the body and caused death. Dr. Lewis was born in Auburn, N. Y., March 3, 1823. He studied medicine at Harvard College, and practiced in Port Byron, removing thence to Bui&tio. He traveled and lectured for a number of years on physiology and hygiene, until he settled in Boston, and there developed his system of exercise for schools and homes, teaching that the body should be trained as well as the mind to insure the perfect de­ velopment of the human being. He opened a school for young ladies at Lexington, Mass., where he could embody his ideas of physical training, and he had great success, the school numbering some one hundred and sixty pupils, many of them broken- down invalids from other institutions. The building was burned in 1867. Since then he has devoted himself to lecturing and writing on health subjects. He was the originator of the Woman's Temperance Crusade in Ohio. He spent his last few years in New York and vicinity and removed to Yonkers in September last. For the two years preceding his death he published in New York Dio Lerna' Nug­ get**, a bi-monthly. His published works on his favorite topic of hygienic education include "New Gymnastics, " Weak Lungs, and How to Make Them Strong," "Talks About People's Stomachs,"and "Our Girls."

[Washington special.] Judge Payson's land bill, passed by the House of Representatives, repealing the pre­ emption, desert-land, and timber-culture laws and amending the commutation pro­ vision of the homestead law, after provid­ ing for the repeal of the pre-emption law allows bona fide claims to be perfected, and also permits a second homestead entry in lieu of the pre-emption privilege to any person who has not had the benefit of pre-emption and who has failed from any cause except by sale or disposal of his right thereto to perfect title to a tract of land heretofore entered by him. The second section, in repealing the timber-culture act, makes provision for perfecting bona-fide claims lawfully in­ itiated before the passage of the act. Sec­ tion 3 amends the homestead act by allow­ ing the minimum price for the quantity of land entered to be paid at any time after the expiration of thirty calendar . months from the date of entry,* the proof of actual settlement to be. filed six months prior to the application for patent. Section 4, in repealing the desert-land act, makes the usual reservation for com­ pleting lawfully entered claims. The fifth section withdraws from public sale and private entry all lands except isolated and disconnected fractional parts, mineral lands, and others of a local nature. Section 6 preserves the right to transfer portions of the settler's entry under homestead or pre­ emption for chnrch, cemetery, or school Surposes, or right of way for railroads, udge Payson says the repeal will not affect the right of soldiers to the public, lands in any way. Their right is under the homestead law,* which is simply amended so as to increase the time of commutation to thirty months. Ex-President Arthur. [New York special.] There has been a turn in the con­ dition of ex-President Arthur. The steady gain that is said to have been going on for the last month has stopped, and it is Baid on good authority that he has taken a considerable step backward, and that there are grave doubts as to his ever getting well. The nature of his disease fives rise to many conflicting symptoms, t is well known that in similar Cases, where the patient has appeared to be on the road to recovery, very suddenly appeared a dangerous and perhaps fatal relapse. While it is not true that the relapse has come in the General's case, he has of late been getting weaker, and his vital force has been greatly lessened by tho return of the attacks of insomnia which were so troublesome in the early part of his sickness. A friend who saw him re­ cently was much struck by the physical de­ pression that seemed to involve the entire muscular system, and every movement of the body was languid, and, to a certain ex­ tent, uncertain. That the General's family are somewhat alarmed is shown in the close and continuous watch that is kept over him; but, while the danger of a relapse is ever before them, a hopeful view is taken of the case, and however active or serious the symptoms may become, there is no in­ dication given of discouragement. The Texas Way. [Dalian (Texas) telegram.] At Terrell, this State, Orange Terrell has for a number of years been paying his re­ spects to Sophia Wickson. She had an­ other admirer named Miles Henderson. Last night Terrell, armed with a revolver, went to the house of Austin Thomas, living on Virginia street, with whom Sophia Wickson was stopping, and found Mr. Henderson there. Terrell immediately opened fire on them, shooting Henderson in the center of the breast, the ball glanc­ ing upward over his shoulder. He then shot Miss Wickson in the leg, and refused to leave the house. The City Marshal be­ ing called in, Terrell shot at him, but missed, when the Marshal loaded him with five ballets, killing him instantly. Juvenile Deviltry.

Mobs Fiercely Amail the Police Bine Peraons Killed and Two Attacks Bepelled--Parnell and Gladstone Biurned in flBelfiwt (Ireland) dispatch.! * A mob of Orangemen made an attack upon a tavern kept by a man named Duffy. The police were promptly on the scene, and after a stubborn contest, during which they used their carbines, drove the mob away in disorder. The rioters reassembled with in­ creased strength and again attacked Duffy's, this time overpowering tho police and driv­ ing them from the place. In the first assault Chief of Police Carr was wounded. He was carried away and now lies in a critical condition. When the Orangemen returned to the fight they were accompanied bv a large number of factory girls, who goaded «r shamed the men on to battle and formed a most dangerous element. When the officers abandoned Duffy's the mob at once took complete possession of the tavern and it was thoroughly sacked. All the taps and spiggots were set running, and everybody was invited to help himself according to his taste. All the barrels of liquor found in stock were carried into the street, lifted up high and let fall until they broke and liberated their contents. All the furniture was carried out, piled in the cen­ ter of the roadway, and burned in a bon­ fire to furnish the rioters light during their- debauch. Men, youths, and girls drank -Until they fell helpless in the gutters, the girls acting with greater fury during the earlier stages of the orgy than the men. The noise, the profanity, and the disorder were terrible. The mob ended its work by firing the tavern itself, and it burned to the ground. Then the stronger men, who had become infuriated and overpowered by their pota­ tions, ran through the streets, wrecking and pillaging wherever they went, and in­ creasing their following the further they proceeded. These rioters, after a While, congregated around the police station and stoned the police until they were tired. They then marched down to another tavern. The police hastened thither in advance and attempted to protect the property, but they were overpowered and driven away. The mob, left in possession, treated the tavern as they had treated Duffy's--turned on all the taps, broke the full barrels in the street, made a bonfire of the furniture, and finally Bet fire to the building. The police returned, and this time got the better for a time of the mob, whose ranks were depleted by the scores who had fallen away in drunkenness, and extin­ guished the flames before they could gain control of the structure. But the officers were unable to drive the rioters from the locality, and they remained and dominated it until morning. During the rowdyism of the night Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Parnell were both burned in effigy, and a dummy corpse labeled "home rule" was crematedL The rioting was renewed here this even­ ing and the riot act was again read. The mob increased in size and began throwing stones at the police. The latter fired, kill­ ing four persons. The mob returned the fire and a brisk fusillade was kept up for twenty minutes. The mob drove a force of 150 policemen into the barracks and then attacked the buildings, firing revolvers and throwing stones at the doors and windows. The police fired, killing five parsons. Sev­ eral Protestant clergymen tried to disperse the mob, but their efforts were unavailing. Two men named Hart and Mason were arrested for the murder of Thomas Galla­ gher, who was shot dead during the rioting at Lurgan. Gallagher was a well-known local simpleton. He waved an Orange sash in the face of a home-rule mob during an incessant fire between that mob and its Orange enemies. During the riot the situation at one time became so des­ perate that Mr. Mathers, a local Orange leader, publicly declared that unless the authorities did their duly he and a thou­ sand armr d Oraugemen would take charge of the town. Mathers was on the point of carrying out his threat when the military appeared. An infernal machine, consisting of a jar filled with a black substance and some clock-work, was thrown last night against the door of a Protestant house in Lurgan and exploded in the doorway. Arthur and Andrew Donnelly, leading Catholic mer­ chants, have been arrested at Lurgan on the charge of firing from their windows. A mob wanted to lynch the prisoners and stoned the police. It was finally dispersed at the point of the bayonet. PARLIAMENT TO B£ DISSOLVED. All the Different Parties Preparing to Enter Upon a Hot Political Contest. [London dispatch. 1 Mr. Gladstone received a dispatch froift the Queen, Wednesday, consenting to a dissolution of Parliament. The Queen had previously asked Lord Harrington whether he was willing to form a ministry. Lord Jilartington in reply advised that Par­ liament be dissolved. Scores of provincial Conservative and Liberal' agents are in London consulting with the whips of their respective par­ ties. Mr. Gladstone insists that every constituency shall be provided with a home-rule candidate, and he relies upon the Radical and Workingmen's clubs and societies to provide zealous volunteers. The Government will endeavor to dissolve Parliament on the 24th inst., or even at an earlier date, if the House expedites neces­ sary business. An early dissolution is de­ sired in order that the elections may not in­ terfere with the harvest work. Mr. Rylands, Liberal member of Parlia­ ment for Burnley, addressed a meeting of three hundred of his constituents at Burn­ ley this evening to explain why he opposed Mr. Gladstone in the recent division. After the address a ballot was taken on the ques­ tion, "Are you satisfied with Mr. Rylands?" The result was: Yeas, 67; nays, 203. The Liberal clubs have split, like the party. The Reform and Devonshire clubs support the dissidents ̂ The members of the National Liberal Club are Gladstoni- ans, and Mr. Schnadhorst has his head­ quarters at that club. He declares that not a single Liberal Association has swerved from its allegiance to Mr. Glad­ stone. DROWNED HER SON. * A Vermont Mother's Unnatural Crime. (Stanford (Vt.) special.) Mrs. William Sloan has for several months been extremely jealous of her hus­ band, and the affairs of the family have been the topic of conversation among the villagers. Mr. Sloan returned from work at an early hour last evening. His four- year-old boy, who always met him at the door, failed to do so. On goiug into the house he inquired for his son, and his wife •aid she had sent the boy on an errand. His long delay resulted in a general search for the ohild, whoso lifeless body was found in a ditch. The body was re­ moved to the house and laid at the feet of Mrs. Sloan. She did net show any signs of emotion or surprise, and merely said it served her husband right to inflict such a punishment on him. The cool way in which she took the matter, and the fact that she had refused to join in the search, led the neighbors to believe that she had com­ mitted the murder. A constable took her in custody and shortly after being locked up she confessed having drowned the child. Her only reason for doing so was, as she said, to spite her husband. - JM» made Mr. Sloan insane. 1 _ ̂ lac* CQHTMS.
