Jules Ferry, the French statesman, who was Wounded by an assassin in the lobby of the cham- ber of deputies on Saturday, was able to leave his bed Sunday morning, but at midnight last night his condition Was less favorable. During the day he recetved thousands of letters and cards express | ing sympathy, and a large number of senators and deputies of all parties called in person. Aubertin, or Berckhetm, the assassin, was ex- amined before the judge d’instruction Sunday. He had lost none of his determination, and boldly declared that, although he was an anti-revolu- tionist, he was sorry his lack of skill had pre- vented the accomplishtnent of hts purpose to kill M. Ferry. Others, however, would succeed in doing What he had fatled to do. From papers found ou Berckhelm and statements made by him to the police after his arrest, or Tather rescue frot the legislators who would have lynched him, it transpires that the would-be as- sassin Dyonged to a band of twenty revolutionists who resdived On the “removal” of Ferry and Goblet, ho were regarded as standing in, the way of the formation of an intellectual, disinterested, and patriotic ministry. Accordingly lots were drawn At a meeting on Friday night, and it fell to Berck. heim to kill the hated Tonquinois, and to an ac- complice, Whose name is not made public, to Kili M. Goblet. In pursuance of this murderous con- spiracy, the revolutionists, armed with revolvers, resented themselves at the Palais Bourboo Sature Sky afternoon and requested to see MM. Ferry and Goblet. There was nothing in thelr appearance to excite suspicton, and they were probaviy taken for ordinary applicants for minor government po- sitions. Ferry answered the summons, but Goblet did not. No sooner had he appeared than Berckheln fired three shots point blank in rapid succession, One penetrated the ex-premfer’s clothing and passed along hts chest, only producing at abra- sion, and another struck him on the right side, neaf the lowest rib and caused a contusion. The Feports caused the Immediate interruption of all business. Deputies and officials rushed into the hall, and while one party attended to M. Ferry the Other subjected his assailant to very rough usage. Berckheim cried: “I am a Lorrainer! I ain a. Lorrainer!” as he was being led off by the police. ‘The papers found on him confirm his statements rarding the revolutiouary conspiracy, but he 13 delleved to be insane. He is twenty years old, a resident of Paris, and of no occupation. He is'a hative of Rombach, in Moselle.

Berckhelm, allas Aubertin, according to Paris dispatches, has long borne the reputation of being adissolute fellow, whose innate depravity ren- dered him capable of almost any reprehensible act.

Aubertin maintains a dogged demeanor, refusing to answer ques- tons and manifesting uo desire to ask any. ifs assault upon M.

One thing 1s absolutely certain, and that 1s that the combination of the re- Publican groups which elected M. Carnot to the presidency, and for a few days promised to endure at least until the new government should get a good start, 1s hopelessly disintegrated, and the chances are that more serious trouble than has yet occurred will ensue.

A well-known Cincinnatian was over in Kansas City one day last week, opening his eyes to the almost fabulous stories of accumulated wealth which are there, on everybody’s tongue, He tells of one lady who was formerly a milliner 1u Mays. ville, Ky., and wed to Kansas City ten or fifteen years ago. She began in Kansas City the business she had followed in Kentucky, and was more or less successful until an old mud-hole on one of the streets of the city feil to her in liquida- Uon Of a $2,500 debt. This the lady accepted wita a great deal of reluctance and with the shedding Of many tears, since she did Hot believe the prop- erty to be worth half the mouey it had cost her.

Still she refused, and then ‘she supplemented ‘the refusal with’ the statement, “Gentlemen, you go ahead and put up your biflding, and ‘no matter how high you gol'll butid on nly lot one story higher than you jo. I'm gotng to raise a monument to myself right ou that corner.” And, it fs said, next sum- mer she will keep her word. “Phe $2,000,000 bull ing 13 now about complete, and fs ten stories high, ‘The little two-story building which the milliner ‘owns on the corner, and which she will tear down to build yreater, nets her an annual income in Tentals of $21,000, sor ‘Trafalgar Square, Manchester Weekly Times’ London Correspondence. ‘The lossof Trafalgar Square as a place of pubitc meeting On Important occasions would be a great deprivation to the working classes of London. ‘There Is no covered space in the heart ot London large enough for a real demonstration of the ple.
