:: - Bbighton, Oct. 8. Mrs. ' Parnell is

watching and the terrible shock she ex
perienced. She positively refuses to
partake of any food or refreshment, and
will only see her daughter. ; A. family
counsel will be held today and the nec-;
essary arrangements for the funeral will
be made, after 'a consultation is had
with the committee of Irish members of
parliament, ' who have been' deputed to
take part in the services.. ' '. .
It has been decided to hold , a post
mortem examination of the body of Par
nell, with a view of settling definitely
the cause of bis death. , John Dillon and
William O'Brien were asked for an ex
pression of their views in regard to the
death of Parnell. Both distinctly re
fused saying anything upon the subject.
A. dispatch, from Brighton says the doc
tor's certificate states that Parnell 's
death was caused by rheumatic fever,
which resulted in excessive temperature
arid failure of the hgart ; It was decided
at the family counsel held this afternoon
that , Parnell'a remains should be. ac
corded a public funeral and that the
body be interred J at Avondale, in the
coun"ty of Wicklow," Ireland, where the

low tariff respectively.; The' people and
marching clubs came from all over the
state and while . much enthusiasm was
displayed in the 'friendly , rivalry and
the McKinley : "American tin"? badges
were offset by Campbell quoting -"American
wool at thirty -font cents on account
of the McKinley bilK" . '

THE PEAK IS CHANGED.
Mount Jefferson. Presents a Strange;
Sight. '
Salem, Or.. Oct. 7. People here liv
ing in sight of Mount Jefferson are de
ceived by an optical illusion, or the snow
has ' slipped from one side of the
'mountain, leaving , the surface as
level as that of Table rock.' Persons
have been ,looking at the mountain to
day with glasses, and each time a flat
top where the snow-capped peak, for
merly was greeted their gaze. ' It is pos
sible that it is an atmospheric -phenomenon
similar to the mirage. In any
case, the shape of the mountain seems
materially changed. .

Arrangement is Said to be at

The Death of William H.. Smith Leaves
the. Unionists Party Without a
Leader iii the Parliament
A Coroner's Jury's Peculiar Verdict
Wanted to Commit Suicide Ed-
win Booth Reported Crazy.
Chicago, Oct. 7. The commissioners
of the Western Traffic Association "today
broke the Union Pacific-Northwestern
agreement. Under this agreement,
which disrupted the Interstate Com
merce Railroad Association, the North
western accepted 19 6-10 per cent, of the
through rate as its proportion, instead of
22 per cent, which connecting lines had
formerly received. The St. Paul insisted' '
on receiving 22 per cent, as the propor
tion of traffic from Montana, and the
"Union Pacific refused to pay more than
the Northwestern would have accepted;
To help the Union- Pacific's purpose,
however, it is fully joined with the other
roads in demanding the larger division, ,
and the Western traffic commissioner of
ficially declared the-Union Pacific con
nections should receive 22 per cent.
This decision, especially in consequence
of Northwestern, has set afloat all sorts
of rumors, the purport being that the
Northwestern is weary of its alliance'
with the Union Pucific, and that now is
the time to annul it. This seems to
demonstrate the fact that since Gould
has secured control of the Union Pacific, "
he has divered all possible traffic to his
Missouri Pacific and Richmond Termi
nal, thereby so decreasing the traffic of
the Northwestern as to make it more
profitable to throw up the alliance and
go on even terms with the competitors
as the higher division. V
. . WITHOUT A LEADER. ',
Speculation a to Who Will . Succeed
j .;, WUl.lnm H. Smith,.
Lokdon, Ocfc.7Thedeatii of William""
H. Smith continues to be almost the
soletopic of . discussion. He was the
right-hand man of Lord Salisbury and
the only commander with whom the ar
istocratic premier unbent. While there
are able men, left in the tory ranks, and
Mr. Smith had his superiors iu ability,
he had- no 'superior in his capacity' to
bold and command the good will, of his
hearers in and out of parliament. He
was almost alone in his popularity 'with
the multitude. They always looked up
on him as one- of themselves, who had
wona higher place by his rintiring fidel
ityand who never was ashamed of his
origin. With Mr. Smith as house leader
for the unionist party, it was difficult for
the liberals to proclaim that their op- '
ponents were all of thein aristocrats and
out of touch with the common people.
His death leaves the unionist party
without a really popular member of the
cabinet. Goschen, who is mentioned as -his
successor, has none of the magnetism
of Smith. He started In life as the eon "
of a rich London merchant, and, unlike
Smith, he never saw anything of the
serious struggle for existence.
... THE UNION TRAGEDY. .
The Peculiar Verdict of the Coroner's
Jury.-
Union, Or., Oct. 7. The coroner's jury
impanneled to inquire into the cause of
the death of Mrs. Mary E. Summers,
after an examination'lasting all day yes-,
terday and this forenoon, brought in a
verdict that she came to her death by
voluntarily drowning herself in ditch.
This was the body which was found yes
terday morning in an irrigating ditch in
this city. As her hands were tied be
hind her it was feared there had been
fonl play, but the jury was unable to
find any evidence of a s'truggle about the
place upon which to base such a conclu
sion. The body was buried this after
noon in the Union ceinoterv.
Wanted to Commit Suicide.
. Niagara Falls, Oct.. 7. A man en
tered the .American express office this
morning and said he wanted to send his
watch and money, home to Louisville,
Ky. The attention of Chief of Police
Dana was directed to the man, and, af
ter a little watching, be was arrested.
He gave his name as Shannon; and said
he lived at Louisville, and had come to
the Falls to commit suicide from Pros
pect Park, but when he saw the popular
jumping place his nerve failed him. He
returned to town and drankseveral cock
tails to brace himself, and had started
to make another attempt when he was
arrested. He was allowed to leave for
Buffalo.

... Denver, Colo., Oct, 7. It is reported
