From Lucy Hooper's Paris Letter, It is almost impossible to exaggerate the state of panic terror into which the inhabitants of Paris have been thrown by the recent series of explosions organized by the anarchists in different quarters of Paris. ‘The one that took place last Sunday morning on the Rue de Clichy revived anew the state of alarm from which people wore just recovering. A dreadful feeling of uncertainty has taken possession of the minds of tho Parisians. “Who next—-perhaps I myself,” seems to be the prevailing conviction. “One no longer dares to make any plans for the future,” wrote to me yesterday # very intelligent and sen- sible French lady. It is almost like the alarm that pervaded Nice at the time of the earth- quake, when no one knew but what the next moment might about a recurrence of the terrible shocks, with their accompaniments of falling roofs and shattored walls, Of course everybody madly biames the gor- hindering tho catastrophes and for not arresting the criminals, ‘There have been vehement outeries for the removal of M. Loge, the prefect of police, because he had gone out of town last Sunday to pend the day and did not arrive at the scene of the explosion before 6 o'clock in the evening. Not that he could have been of any special use had he arrived there ten hours earlier, but there 1s a firm conviction in the minds of the Parisians that when sucha direful affair took place, was an ‘HATORDAY. May 7, 169 RIVERS AND HARBORS|SCHNEIDER’S SHAM. The Bil Further Considered in the|He Feigns Insanity ia the Court House Today, DEEPENING THE GREAT LAKES. Mr. Whiting’s Amend- ment Debated. THE HOUSE. Althongh the House does not imitate the ox- ample of the Senate by adjourning from Friday until Monday, Saturday is usually » dull day. An onrly adjournment is always exposted and consequently many members devote that day to the transaction of their departmental busi- ness, But the prospect of a final vote on the tiver and harbor bill had the effect of brin; together an unusually largo Saturday atten ance. Several requests for unanimous consent were denied, but Dolegate Harvey of Oklahoms was fortunate, Ho see the passage of a bill donating to Oklahofhe City for school purposes the military rosorvation at that point, THE RIVER AND HARBOR BILL. ‘The Honse then went into committeo of the whole (Mr. Hatch of Missouri in the chair) on the river and harbor bill. The pending amendment was that offered by Mr. Whiting (Mich.) striking out the sppro- riation for a ship channel twonty-one feet in lepth, connecting the waters of the groat Inkes between Ohicago, Duluth and Buffalo, and insorting in liow thereof a provision authorizing the Secretary of War to appoint a board of eugincers, to whom shall be referr the report of Col. P. M. Poo upon the subject of 20-foot channel from Duluth to Buffalo through the great lakes, The board shall also roport as to the practicability of raising the water level of the Inkes and conuecting har by damming the Niagara river. OPPOSED THE AMEXDMENT. ‘Mr. Castle (Minn.) antagonized the amend- ment and strenuously advocated the clause in the bill. He argued that the construc- tion of a deep waterway through the great lakes would not result in the shoaling of the water at the lake ports, Ninety-six cent of the carrying trade botween Buffalo and Duluth was done by Americay steamers, Let the governmont make the groat lakes the Mediterranesn of the west, on whose shores would be built great cities, which would glority the country. Mr. N. A. Taylor (Ohio) also spoke in favor of the clause in the bill. “The project for a 21- foot channel was advocated by 99 per cent of the people living along the lakes, Mr. Tarsnoy (3fo.) was opposed to the ap- ene on the ground that when tho 21- foot vessels were constructed they could enter but few harbors on the lakes, The result would be that the other harbors would be in- jured or the government would bo called upon to appropriate untold millions for dredging Purposes, ir. Chipman (Micb.) in advocating the doop waterway, said. that colleaguo (Mr. Whiting)’ stated that tho demand for came from the channel intorested parties in Buffalo and Duluth. Did not the gentleman know that those two cities wore tho terminal points for the transportation of the cereal products of 29,000,000 hod gai! When itwas argued that But and Duluth would be benefited by the appropriation it was con- sidered at once that the great grain interests of the country wonld be benefited. Mr. Whiting advocated his amendment. The appropriation made in tho bill was asked for by owners of large boats who, letting ther greed run away with their wisdom, had built vessels which were too jargo to navigate the lakes, Chicago not asking for it. She had not twenty-one feet af water and she could not get it, KANSAS GOT NO PORK. Mr. Simpson (Kan.) said that in this bill Kansas had been left out in the division of the pork. Nevertheless, the people of Kansas were in favor of any measure that would deepen the waterway of the great lakes and build up competition with the railroads. Money appro- Printed for tho doepening of the lake channel would benefit the whole country. He would heartily support the river and harbor bill if all its items were as meritorious as the Lamers | one and if the steals could be eliminate: from it, ‘MB. WHITING'S AMENDMENT REJECTED. Mr. Whiting’s amendment was rejocted— 85; 120, On motion of Mr. Henderson (IIL) the appropriation for the improvement of tie Missouri river anes foot of Great Falls, in Montana, and Sioux City, was increased from $70,000 to 100,000. sts ada ANACOSTIA, THE BAPTIST CHURCH DIFFICULTY. ‘The Burr-Leach-Fernald faction of the Bap- tist Church have elected officers as follo' Deacons, Leach, Charles Burr, H.

COLE. But is Overpowered and Handcuffed. SENTENCED TO BEHANGED Judge Bradley’s Impressive Remarks in Fixing January 20, 1893, as the Day of Ex- ecution—An Appeal to be Made by the Prisoner’s Counsel—A Terribly Exciting Scene in Court. ‘The announcement in Thursday's Sran that the motion for a new trial in the case of How- ard J. Schneider, convicted on the 9th of last month of the murder of his wife, would be called up by the district attorney this morning served to attract a crowd which filled the Criminal Court room long before 10 o'clock, the hour set for the opening of the court. As during the days of the long trial, a large proportion of the audience was composed of ladies. It was 1 o'clock, however, before Judgo Bradley took bis seat, and immediately after the open- ing of the court the district attorney rose and stated that he was ready to proceed in the case of the United States vs. Howard J. Schneider, SCHNEIDER'S CHANGED APPEARANCE. Schneider was then brought into court and took his seat just back of his counsel, A short Diack growth of beard covered his face, his hair was matted and disordered und his clothes were divarranged and in s most untidy eondition. His coat collar was pulled xj about his face and no signs of collar or cuffs jen, He presented xo entirely a diffe pearance from that of the nea’ © presented during the one who then saw would have had great aificulty in recognizing hit this motning. He walked to his seat with eyes fastened on the floor paid not the slightest attention to the sulutation yo Wilson or Mr. Hoehling, who spoke to him as ho took t down he leaned for- ward, and, clasping his hands before him, satwith his lips firmly pressed together and eves fixed upon oor. Despite his untidy appearance, his face gave no indica- tions of any real loss of health. An ugly, de- termined look revealed the really dangerous being he later proved himscif to be. THE INSANITY TLEA. After the excitement which Schneider's en- trance and appearance created had subsided Judgo Wilson rose and suid that he felt constrained in view of the prisoner's mental condition ask that tho hearing of the motion be deferred until his condition could be inquired into, Although his client was in no fit mental condition to proceed with the hearing of the motion to- day, he said, counsel for the defendant had nothiug to offer tothe court in substantiation of that fact, and he felt the hearing should in justice tothe dotendant bo postponed until after proper medical exemination could be ad. District Attorney Cole said that as there was really nothing properly bofore the court in support of such a request it appeared to him that there was nothing to say in reply. ‘There was nothing upon which the court could act, and he therefore asked that the bearing of the motions be proceeded with, Judge Witson said he haf reasons for not having bad the medical examination made be- foro this, but he did not care to state them publicly. THE HEARING ORDERED TO PROCEED. Judge Bradley said that almost a month had elapsed sine the defendant's conviction, and he thought that the hearing of the motion uow been deiayed as long as justice demanded. Another reason why the hearmmg should not be further poned was. that this was the last day ho ex- pectéd to proside over tho Criminal Court this year, ai desired to conclude today all cases which required his attention. If there was anything in the alleged mental unfitness of the defendant, there was nothing now before the court in support of the allegation and the hearing should be proceeded with. Judge Wilson, after noting an exception to the court's denial of the request, said that so far as counsel for the defeuse was con- cerned they would wai argument on the motion. There were two motions filed for o new trial and one in arrest of judg- ment. The points relied upon in the threo motions covered matters which occurred during the trialand were perfect!y familiar to tho court, ‘His honor having formally overruled the three motions, Judge Wilson noted an appe from the court’s decision to the Court in Ger Term, and inquired whether the noting of the appeal did not in itself operate as a stay of judgment? ASKS THAT SENTENCE BE PRONOUNCED. The district attorney stated that the practice of the court was taat the judgment of the court must first be pronounced, else there was noth- ing from which to rem His honor coinciding, the district attorney then sai ‘our honor, now ask that the sentence of the court in the caso of the United States against Howard J. Schneider be pro- nounced.” ‘TRIED TO BRAIN THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY. ‘Then occurred a scene never before wit- nessed in the history of the court, and seldom elsewhere. Hardly had the district attorney censed speaking, when Schneider, with a loud ery of rage, sprang up from his chair, and, grasping it with both hands, raised it above hishead and sprang at the district at- torney, with the undoubted —pur- ory of braining him. ‘The room become densely packed with men, women and children, aud as Schneidei sprang toward District’ Attorney Cole with tho uplifted chair, ple _ with — uncontrolial oyes flashing with wicked one in ent tent, nearly every the court room sprang to their feet and several of the ladies screamed and attempted to make their way out, usual § guard, Peewee! stood some _— distance 4 Schneider could bring the chair down on the Head ofthe dstria f attorney, who sat with ae ee, not bim be is Se ten rin ig F2é way wi you?” Do you wish to. say anyibing, wh ou! ou say wi feutence ofthe aw should not be imposed on? ‘The defendant—God damn Judge Wilson (to defendant sey nothing. ‘The court—What is the reply that be made? God dxmn you, wae it not? id claim for @ moment that you are not now in condition to have sentence imposed uj you, The samo and devilish Purpose that actuated you ia the wccomplish- ment of tho hellish design which you executed upon yout wife has becu apparent in the action which you teok this morning.

To BE HAX@ED JaNvany 20, 1893. “The sentence of the law is that you be taken hence to the common jail of the District of Columbia, from whence you came, and there be committed in close confinement, and that upon Friday, the 20th day of Junuary, 1893, cen to the place tor ‘of 8 a.m. aud 12 noon, you be banged neck until you be dead, and may that God hove law you have defied ‘ba @ that merey Upon you and apon your which you re- {ved and denied to Jour murdered wife.” Immediately after the sentence was pro- nounced Schneider was hurried to the cage below, and the crowd in the court room’ began to leave, when Ju Bradley sharply rapped for order and ssi “These people have come here to satisfy their idle curiosity and they must stay here quietly Until the court adjouras the cass,” SIXTY DAYS 18 WHICH TO FILE SKOEPTIONS. Judge Wilson then asked for ninety days in which to prepare tho bill of exceptions, but at the suggestion of the district attorney the court fixed sixty doys asthe period, The gase was dismissed for the present instance, the ent, noisy throng left the court room. After some atraigninen's bad been bi Schneider was driven off to jail in the van with several other prisoners amid the hooting of tremendous crowd, had gathered about the court house door. ON THE WAY TO THE Jal. On the way to the jail Schneider asked Mr. Springman, the officer of the van, what the judge had done with the case. “Ho seu- tenced you to be jung,” answered Mr. Springman; “but that does not deprive your counsel of any right to take an appeal. It had to be done.” Schneider then conversed as to some liquor kept in his stable and also about some patent blind springs. WHAT DISTRICT ATTORNEY COLE SATs. District Attorney Cole, when seen by a Sram reporter, said hedid not care to discuss the matter particularly, but he dupposed it was all right in view of what had transpired. “Twas not looking at Sebneider when he raised the chair,” he ‘My back was turned toward him. “But,” ho added, “I think he did not mtend to hit me with the chair. I told during my argument that I had better be on the lookout for him; that he would at- tempt to injure me, but I paid no attention to it, for I expected nothing of the kind to hap- a “What was his object in acting as he did?” inquired the reporter. “He was simply trying to play the crazy ,”” was Capt. Cole's reply. ‘wathe did not know how to go about it, be attempted to strike hisown counsel or some disinter- ested person it wi have been more in the line of insanity, but for him to attempt to strike me was per- fectly natural; it was exactly what a sane man would have done. His act was, just as the judge said, ‘on ineffectual attempt to, feign insan- ity,’ See eee The Fire at Brightwood.
