IRELAND. excellent | © 2d EDITION. THE DAY IN EUROPE. Ourrent Events in England and On the Continent, THE COMING PARIS CONFERENCE. Troops Supposed to Be Surrounded By Indians. SETTLING WESTERN LANDS. TRANSATLANTIC TOPICS. No Truth in the Report That the O'Shea Di- vorce Case Will Be Reopened. Loxpox, Dec. 23.—Now that the Kilkenny election is over and the excitement attending that first trial of strength between the Irish fac- tions is dispelled all are looking forward with the deepest interest to the meeting of Parnell and O'Brien in Paris. O'Brien is acquainted with Mrs. O'Shea, who will also be in Paris, having already arrived there, and who may, it is thought, have something to say ix behal? of ell. There is no foundation whatever for the report that the queen's proctor means to reopen the O'Shea divorce case. ‘The only pos- sible ground for such an action in view of the evidence would be collusion and it would do Parnell no good to testify to that; while at the same time should such a claim be successfully interposed it would make it impossible for | Parnell to marry his “Denr Kate,” as he habitually calls her, and would leave her in a condition worse than divorce or widowhood. It is understood that at the coming conference in Paris the question will arise of the disposi tion of the funds now locked up from the uses of the National League and an effort will be made to arrive at common ground as to the disposition of the money. ‘A REACTION IN FAVOR OF EYRAUD. There is a revulsion of feeling in Paris in favor of Eyraud, the strangler of Gonffe. It is gener- ally felt that his companion,Gabrielle Bompard, was the greater criminal of the two and the fact that she was let off with a term of impri onment while Fyrand was doomed to the guil- lotine, has aroused a feelingof protest against the apparent injustice of the verdict. This sentiment is strengthened by the news that only five out of the ‘wenty jurymen were at first inclined to give the woman the benefit of ex- tenuating circumstances, though the others finally consented to take that view of the case. ‘The theory of hypnotism has also been dis. proved to'the satisfaction of the public, and the belief that Eyraud was the tool of a modern Lady Macbeth in the person of the wicked Ga- brielle finds more and more wide acceptance. It is possible that a new trial wi granted, and in that cave it is doubtful if the verdict of the late trial will be repeated. The latest. Par- isian novelty is a small model of the trunk which figured in the Gouffe murder case as the receptacle of the victim's mutilated body. It is a puzzle to open the trunk, un erimenter has overcome the difficulty, the lid fies open, and he is rewarded by the sight of a leaden image of the unfortunate police no- Je CURRENT LONDON GossiP. In a statement last evening Sir G. Trevelyan, M.P., said that the liberal party continued steadfast in its attitude toward Ireland, that it was firmly resolved to give a measure of atone- ment and deliverance to Ireland as a nation, “not because they are liberals, but because we are liberals.” The young Prince of Hohelohe, who has won an honorable rank among sculptors, has com- pleted a statue of the Princess of Wales for the Royal College of Music. The work is favor- ably criticised. It is announced that the Emperor William of Germany will visit London next spring un- less something happens to disarrange his _pres- ent plans. The Times correspondent at Paris says that M. Ferry, who is a candidate for the senate from the department of the Voages, may be considered as virtually elected. * COMING CLERICAL. APPOINTMENTS. Rom, Dec. 23.—At the coming consistory Bishop Katzher will be appointed archbishop of the diocese of Milwaukee; Bishop Scammell will be appointed archbishop of Omaha and Bishop Scanlan archbishop of Salt Lake. THE KAISER'S VISIT TO PARIS. Panis, Dec. 28.—The Galois makes the state- ment that the kaiser has decided to visit Paris incognito and says thet during his stay in the city Emperor William will not reside at the German embassy. Subsequently he will pro- ceed to Cannes and San Remo. The Gatiots further states that the projected visit of the emperor had been made the subject of a con- ference between Chancellor von Caprivi and M. Jules Herbet, French embassador at Berlin The matter was then referred to M. Ribot, French minister of foreign affairs. The cabi- net was convened on the 18th instant, with M. de Freycinet, minister of war, presiding, and the proposed visit of the kaiser was fully deliberated upon. THE NEXT FRENCH DUEL. Panis, Dec. 23.—The terms of the duel ar- ranged between M. Dumay, a member of the chamber of deputies, and M. Brousse, vice chairman of the municipal council of Paris, call for pistols at twenty-five paces. If the’ ex- of shots does not result in injury to either party the duel is to be continued with swords This duel, as alrendy the renul of a quarrel yesterday of the Hotel de Ville between men named, during which M. the deputy a blow in the face. CATHOLIO MISSIONARIES IN MADAGASCAR PII- LAGED. Loxpox, Dec. 28.—Advices from M r under date of November 6 state that a body of Hovas, paid by the Malagasy premier, have illaged the Catholic missionaries’ premises at Kntane Narivo. Father Moutant was wounded while doing his utmost to protect the property of the missionary station. In addition to this outrage the Hovas attacked the house of the French vice resident, the Com toir d’Escompte, and other prominent build- attacks were repulsed by the occupants of the buildings referred to. The Protestant missions were not molested by the announced, is in the lobby e two gentle- Brousse struck Hovas. THE CZARWITCH AT BOMBAY.

The report is that there are about 3,000 In- dians, including women and children, who are badly armed, coming to join those in the Bad Lands. There are about 600 fighting men among them. This report is thought to be somewhat exaggerated, as it is believed that there are not over $00 fighting men among them. Yesterday some ten cowboys went down. near Battle creck, where there are a large number of hostiles encamped on the reserva- tion. They concealed themselves on Bear creek and not waited long until eight In- dians rode slowly up the draw and dismounted and unsaddled. ‘he cowboys slowly crept upon the bluff and poured a volley of lead into them, one Indian —— dead. The others were so frightened they fled for their lives, the cowboys shooting until they were out of range. The cowboys captured seven fine saddles and three good Indian ponies. ESCAPED TO THE RESERVATION. Yesterday morning Mr. McCormick came in and reported that during the night, while he was away from his ranch, the Indians shot it to pieces and shot the windows out. They eut all | ‘is grain sacks and scattered the grain and de- | stroyed the furniture. The great hindrance to | their capture is that after committing their thefts and destroying their property they re- turn to their reservation, where the troops can not follow, there being strict orders against it.
