London, Oct. 7. Great Britain and
Ireland were-etartled this morning by
the utterly unlooked-for announcement
that Charles Stuart Paraell, the noted
Irisfrleader, died suddenly yeeterday
evening in Brighton. It has been known
that Parnell has not enjoyed the best of
health for years, and it has been noticed
and widely commented upon that since
the O'Shea divorce developments and
political trouble came -upon Kim, the
great Irish member-of parliament has
grown thinner, and that he has percep
tibly aged in appearance. But nobody
expected to hear of his, death and no
inkling as to his illness had reached the
newspapers. He died at his home in
Walsingham terrace, Brighton, rat 11:30
o'clock, - yesterday evening. His death
is said to have been indirectly due to a
chill -with which lie was attacked last
week and which at first was not re
garded as Eerious. Parnell, however,
grew- worse, and his physician was
called in with the result that the patient
was ordered to be taken to bed. This
was Friday last, and from that time
Parnell lost strength and finally suc
cumbed. The exact nature of bis dis
ease is not known at present. From the
day he took to his bed however, the
state ef Parnell's health' was such as to
require the constant attendance of two
physicians, but in spite of their untiring
efforts to prolong or save his life Parnell
gradually, sank lower and lower, until he
expired in the arms of Mrs. Parnell, who
is utterly prostrated by the shock.
In this city particularly - the news of
Parnell a death came like a thunderbolt
upon the clubs 'and political circles.
The last time Parnell appeared in public
was at Cregg, Ireland, September 27,
when he delivered a long speech upon
the attitude and alleged' inconsistencies
Of Dillon and O'Brien.' Upon that oc
casion Parnell stated that he was speak
ing in defiance of the orders of the doc
tors. Coupled with the announcement
that Parnell died last night comes the
news that Sir John Pope Hennessey, a
member of Parliament from North Kill
kenney is also dead. Hennessey, it will
be remembered, immediately after the
exposure in the O'Shea divorce case, con
tested the North Killkenney election,
backed by Parnell's opponents, and de
feated the Parnelliles candidate, Vin
cent Scully, by 1147 votes, r This was
-possibly the greatest test of strength be
tween the Pafn'ellites and the McCarthy
ites and the defeat of Scully no doubt
accounted for a great deal in the future
series of disasters which befell the Irish
leader.- . , - , ,- - '
BIfVE.IXO OF GRANT'S STATIIK.

ing of the Oregon State Board of Com
merce was called tn order at 1 :30 this
afternoon. There"were present twenty
two delegates,, representing Eugene,
Grants Pass, LaGrande, Oregon City
and Portland. There are fourteen
towns as yet unrepresented. The re
port of the treasurer shows the board to
have a balance on hand. The first
question taken up was the World's fair
appropriation. This subject is now
being discussed.
The Australian Squadron.
- London, Oct. 6. Advices from Aus
tralia say that the people are overjoyed
by the arrival of the auxiliary Austral
ian squadron of the British navy. The
squadron is practically an Australian
fleet consisting of three cruisers and one
gunboat, with native Australian names.
It raises Australia to the rank of a naval
power with a fleet which is without a
rival in Polynesia, and puts her in a pos
ition to meet any maritime enemy likely
to arise in that quarter. Evry colony
is anxious to welcome the ' squadron,
which will doubtless moke a round of all
the leading ports.

abandoned, and were burned to death.
Three thousand bushels of oats and
other food was destroyed. Loss, f 10 ,000;
insured.
Not Knthusiastlc for the Exhibition.
London, Oct. 6. The Paris corres
pondent of the News telegraphs that re
plies to the government circular would
indicate a dearth of enthusiasm among
the people of France in the matter of
sending exhibits to the world's fair to be
held in Chicago. Manufacturers gener
ally, as expressed in their answer, re
gard the invitation of the United States,
following, as it does, the adoption of the
new American tariff, as a mockery.
About 100 Parisian manufacturers and
tradesmen have announced their inten
tion to exhibit their goods at the fair. -

TIRING OF ROYALTY.
Uncharitable Comments Upon the Birth
of Another Princess Thev Cost
Too Much Money.
A Report From the Sandwich Islands
That Queen Liliuokalani May Die
at any Moment.
Why the British Schooner Otto Was
Seized. The Reported Massacre
Xot Confirmed.
London, Oct. 6. The birth of a grandr
child to the queen has given rise to a new
crop of the usual comments on the ad
vent of royal descendants. The radicals
generally give the little one a cold wel
come. The Pall Mall Gazette prints a
list of forty grandchildren of the queen,
and points out that there is a coin fort in
the reflection hat the succession is safe.
This seems to be the only comfort the
taxpayers extract from the situation.
The baby will, however, be an additional
expense for the present to the British
treasury. Battenbnrg and the Princess
Beatrice already have a liberal allowance
from parliament, and Beatrice has the
privilege of living on the queen's bounty,
as she accompanies her everywhere.
Battenburg, who is looked upon as a
mere appendage of the household, has
been called the most -unhappy man in
Great Britain. But the assertion cannot,
be true, as ever since he married Bea
trice he has had enough to eat, whereas,
in Germany, he was in very precarioux
circumstances.
THE SAKnWIt'H ISLANDS.
Report That Queen Liliuokalani
Iie at Any Moment.
May
San Fkancihco, Oct. 6. The Examiner
has advices from Hdnolulu to the effect
that Queen Loliuokalani has been taken
ill with serious fainting spells, and her
physician, Dr. Trosseau, has pronounced
her trouble organic disease of the heart;
for which . he can suggest no remedy.
Death, It is stated, may occur at any"
moment. The queen has been advised
of the worst and has made her will. The
Honolulu press is silent on the subject,
but it is known that all the political fac
tions are busily at work. It is stated no
one can be found whom all the factions
will agree upon for regent to hold nower
during the minority of the heiress to the
throne, Princess Kaiulani, who is now
finishing her education in Emrland. '
The father of the princess is an English- '
man, with pronounced tnglish sympa
thies, and the opinion is expressed that
in the event of Kaiulani's accession to
the throne on the islands an effort will
be mode to brine the islands under Eng
lish ' control. The native sentiment is
preponderating in favor of an Amerit an
protectorate in some form.

The Report Not Confirmed.
. San Antonio, Tex., Oct. G. Dr. Plu
tarco Oanelae, Mexican consul in this
eity.'was asked concerning the alleged
massacre of nearly 200 white colonists-in
Salahcingo district, state of Hidalgo,
Mexico, by Indians. He stated the pub
lished report was the first intimation he
had received of the affair, although he
receives daily reports by tejegraph from
the seat of government qf Mexico. "I
am convinced," said he, ?that: the re
port is unfounded, or -that it has been
greatly -exaggerated. Thar story of the
massacre, as given by Parton, looks verv
improbable, to say the least. -I have
telegraphed the secretary of foreign af
fairs in the City of Mexico asking him
as to the truth of the report."
T Stop Ball Fl(btli(.
Berlin, Oct. 6. The Belgian author
ities are taking steps to put a stop to
the bull fights which have recently disi.
graced the town of Spa. The fighting
has aroused the indignation of English "
tourists and others, who made repre
sentations on the subject to the police,
with a result that the sport is to be for
bid jen in the future.
