THE PANAMASCANDAL Officers of the Canal Company to Be Arrested. STRIKE OF ROCK ISLAND TELEGRAPHERS Destruction of the Armory at Cleveland by Fire. LIQUOR DEALERS AT WAR. LESSEPS’ ARREST ORDERED. ‘Vigorous Measures Taken With the Panama Canal Company Officials. Pants, Dec. 8.—The Libre Parole today says that M. Bourgeois, minister of justice, has ordered the immediate arrest of the members of the council of the Panama Canal Company, who are charged with breach of trust. The mem- bers of the company now under indictment are M. Ferdinand de , chairman of the board of directors, M. Chales de Lesseps, the vice chairman, and M. Fontanes and Cott, directors, : It is reported that tha autopsy off the body of Baron Reinach, ordered by the government, was held Inst night. The result has not been made public. Loxnox, Dec. &—-The Paris correspondent of the News says: “M. Proust resigned the chairmanship of the Freneh commission to the Chicago Columbian exposition in a rather high- flown letter. He has not vet. terigned the custody of the funds of 10,000,000 francs raised by the gigantic lottery under the Grevy fegime for the creation of a museum. “Senator Hebrad,” says the ndent, Panama contracts without risking a centime in the undertaking. He would have made colossal sum had the work continued. I do tories, but a certain article of his in to- day's L'Intransigeant cannot be ignored. He declares that the German emperor hates the French republic on the personal ground that an acquaintance with the Comte de Paris, who through his political agent, Dufeille. bought up certain secret papersconnected with the Panama cunal, intending to scatter their contents broadcast on the eve of the general elections. “The story is believed by many in political quarters.” Le Soir of Paris said last night that at a royalist meeting held three weeks ago at the Duc De Broglie's residence the Panama scan- dals were discussed at length. Certain of those present desired that the Duc De Broglic’s remarks should be published, but the duke opposed this on the ground that the royalists themselves were involved, they having always favored the lottery bonds, Furthermore, he did not desire to dishonor France in trying to befoul the republic. The duke was a minority accident, the scandal prematurely burst forth like a torrent. The young royali tired of the inactivity of the Comte de Paris, and are beginning to agitate for the Duc D'Orleans, whose tour in Africa is believed by the ministry of the interior to be a mere blind. The foregoing from Le Soir shows that re- publican interests are at stake, and demonstrate the necessity of a full exposure of the canal | jobbers. |_ “After all,” says the correspondent, “the Panama matter is nothing compared with the scandal of the Jecker bonds and the national calamities arising therefrom, or with the scandal of court favorites living on money | voted for the 1,400,000 troops, which in 1870 were found to exist only on paper. “M.

Avavsta, Ga., Dec. &—There is a fight on between wholesale and retail liquot dealers in Augusta, A recent city law prohibits the sell- ing of liquor or the opening of shops on elec- tion days, Yesterday a municipal election was held for councilmen and the retailers in obedience to the law closed their Places, but the wholeralers kept open and did business. The retailers thought this was an imposition on them, as the wholesalers were catching their “‘jug trade.” After consultation they determined to report all the wholesale houses found open. A com- mittee walked the streets and noted all places open and made a report to the police. Eleven cases were reported. This morning the trial of the violators was held before Recorder Pierce.
