IT ANNOYED THE POPE, ‘The Insults to Victor Emmanuel’s Tomb by French Pilgrims Yesterday. Rowe, Oct. 3.—The pope is deeply afflicted at the disorders which occurred yesterday in this city through the objectionable conduct of some French pilgrims who were visiting the tomb of King Victor Emmanuel in the Pantheon. Tho pope has issued instructions that all Catholic pilgrims now in Rome are to remain tranquilin face of the dis- pleasure displayed by the bands of young men and others who paraded the streets to mark their disapprobation with the pilgrims’ con- duct, and that the latter are in every way to do all in their power to avoid giving cause for di rbances. French pilgrims who were tho immedi- ate cause of so much disorder yesterday started during the day for Modena. More doin they called at the Vatican and expressed their regrets for the occurrences of yesterday. ‘The pope in reply said he alvo regretted yesterday's Incidents and hoped they would aot happen ct gain. ‘The majority of the accounts furnished of the causes of yesterday's riotous outbreak agree in the assertion that one of the pilgrims who visited Victor Emmanuel’s tomb spat in the book where all vieitors are expected to inscril their names. In addition this pilgrim wrote: re le Pape; mort au Roi Humbert; a bas Victor Emmanuel.” An Italian gentleman who was present in the Pantheo: the same time as the pilgrims hap- pened to notice what one of their number bad inscribed in isitors’ book, and, enraged at the insult to the dead, he struck the writer in the face and assisted th expel bim amid the anathemas of those present. The other pilgrims tried to rescue their companion from the uards and in #o doing caused the whole popu- disturbance. The crowds attracted to the spot by, the disorder upon hearing its cause al tacked the pilgrims with knives and stone: filling the air w ‘Death to t pilgrims,” &c. s had the utmost dif- ficulty in protecting the pilgrims from the Italians, who were frenzied with desire for ven- geance.” In spite of the uppeals of the polico ofticers and their efforts to allay the unger of the populace the pilgrims were chased all over the city. MM, Harmel, the leader of the French wor men’s pilgrimage, called at the ministry of the interior today and disclaimed eny sympathy with the outrage of yesterday. On the other hand, M.,Harmel expressed deep rogret for all the occurrences in connection with it. Eight trains at an early hour this morning were held in readiness to take the pilgrims out of Rome, but it was found that popular feeling against tho visitors had calmed down to a con- siderable oxtext and therefore the pilgrims were informed that it was not anticipated that muy departure from their original program would be found necessary. Pants, Oct. 3.—At a cubinet meeting held to- day it wus decided to send a circulur to the prelates throughout France requesting them not to countenance pilgrimages to tome and not to visit that city’ themselves in view of the disturbed state of popular feeling there due to the Pantheon incident. pace ae THE REVOLT IN YEMEN. It is Said That the Sultan Has Reconquered Arabia. CoxsraxrixorLe, Oct. 3.—It is announced here that the Turkish troops in the province of Yemen, Arabia, have after several battles with the insurgents recaptured Sana, tho principal city of the province, and that the leading chiefs havé submitted to the Turkish authorities.

The birth took place at ‘orkl castle, Scotland, where the queen is ndw residing. In addition to the son just born the Prinogas Beatrice has two other sons and one daughter. aaa Tas THE RIOTOUS COTTON PICKERS, Reports of Wholesale Lynching False—Only ‘Two Have Been Hanged, Manuxxa, Anx., Oct. 3.—After scouring the woods for a distance of about forty-five miles in search of the riotous cotton pickers, Sheriff Derrick's posse returned here yesterday. They brought with them threo negroos. As was ex- pected, there was no truth in the reports sent out from Helena that nive men had been taken, from the sheriff and lynchod. 80 far as known Ed_ Peyton, who was shot by the officers while in the cancbrake Tuesday, and Ben Patterson who was taken from Deputy Mills and lynched Weduesday night, were the only ones killed. The sensational reports, which have in somein- stances placed the number of killed as high as thirteen, are based on imagination only. ‘The officers who arrived yesterday say that two more prisoners were in charge of officers who were to bring them over today, but they think jt likely both of thom will be \ynched be- fore they reach this place. Everything is now quict at the scene of the rioting and cotton picking is going on steadily. —————— AMERICANS ABEOAD. ‘Wll-Known Persons in England and on the Continent. Loxpox, Oct. 3.—Mr. H. H.

Henry Clows in his Financial Keview issued today says: The speculative situation shows more uncertainty than two weeks ago. Two causes are responsible for this: first, the rest and reaction which were necessary after a rise of 8020 points within a few short weeks; and, next, the developments concerning Missouri Pacific and Union Pacific, which have brought down a storm of indignation upon the heads of the directors. ‘The solid facts are more in favor of improve- ment than ever. ‘Ihe harvest has now passed from the range of possibilities into a certainty. Plenty and profit ure already in the grasp of the farmer. Debts will be paid, mortgages wiped out and new enterprises siarted on a seale hitherto unknown; all of which means expansion of business and increased trafic for railroads. Gold is coming this way with unexpected freedom. ‘This tends to lessen the possibilities of very tight money, which bas been a question of doubt to buils of the prudent sort. ‘fhe other view of this gold movement is that it causes firmer money abroad, where stocks have been carried on American account and discour- ages speculation; to that extent depriving this market of important foreign support. Stil, the immediate course of the market, however, seems now more promising again on tl for the bull side as a reaction from the rece1 has tet Seri ae ni depression. For the next few days we look for an aotive market, with good opportunities for traders. —— Washington Stock Exchange. Sales—Kegular call—i2 o'clock m.: Capitol and North Oastreet raiiroad, sat 42.

In the opinion of a majority of the members of the Utah commission, whose report bas just been submitted to Secretary Noble, the recent action in Utah of di the people's or the Mormon party is a step in. the direction of educating the people to think for themselves politi- cally. Whether. says the report, this ection be in good faith, as is claimed by some, or merely a ruse, a8 asserted by others, by which to get rid of the power and control of the na- tional government, the commission expresses no opinion. They think that it would be wise to waitand sce just what the Mormons mean by this move. They consider that the Present safeguard for the enforcement of the laws should be continued and that it TTould not be wise at this time to confer state- upon the people. The report is by G.
