REFORMS AUSTRIA, The New Premier Tells His Ph the Reichsruth. ‘A, Nov. 23.—The richstrath open- ed today. Prince Alfred Windischgraetz, the new Austrian prime minister, explained to the house that the new cabinet had been formed by the joint action of the three great parties. The first measure that the government would submit to the house would be the electoral reform bill, existing interests, while conferring franchise upon classes that had been deprived of it. The government had decided that, pending the passage of this measure, ail other questions would be held in_ abeyance. Prince Windischgraetz added government would continue the currency reform, would rearrange the system of taxation, give special attention to the needs ot working men and repel the elements likely to disturb the peace of the country. pte o> POLICEMAN TERRY the hitherto that *the NOT BAILED.

LONDON, Nov. 23.—A dispatch to ‘the Globe from Algiers says thzt the police there recently learned that anarchists were using that city and surrounding villages as bases for spreading their pernicious doc- trines. A close search was made and after a time it was learned that the headquar- ters of the organization was located at Mustepha, a suburb of Algiers. The meeting place of the conspirators Was soon unearthed, and the police made | @ raid upon it. The occupants had receiv- ed a warning and had fied, but had been compelled to leave many of their- belong- ings behind them. Tne police secured a large number of pamphlets and documents, & perusal of which revealed the fact that the anarchists were engaged in a wide- spread conspiracy. |. Threats have frequently been made to} | blow up the French courts, and also the! mosque, in which Moorish and Arab civil cases are heard. No a2rests have yet been made, as the men sought for are in hiding, but an active search for them is in prog- ress. Extra guards will be stationed about all the public buildings. The representative of the United Press |had an interview with the famous French | female anarchist, Louise Michel, regarding the Barcelona outrage and anarchism in general. She declared that the throwing of the bombs in the Lyceum Theater, at Barcelona, sprang from the blood of Pallas, | the man who attempted to assassinate Gen. Martinez Campos. She added that increas- ing poverty and the means of repression that had been adopted by the author war- ‘ranted more terrible means of defense. | With reference to the European interna- | tional agreement for the suppression of |anarchism and anarchists she said that | the whole thing was worthy only of de- Fe The same thing had been tried be- ‘ore. —~— TRANS-ATLA |I¢ Will Soon Be Extended by the | Grand Trank Railway.

AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN, Two Alleged Spaniards Victimised Sev- eral Trustful Citizens. Had Smuggled Cigars—A Sunken Boat to Be Raised—Many Short Notes of General Interest. Two conspicuous-looking Spaniards dress- ed as sailors and carrying carefully done up bundles went through town yesterday in the search for victims. Every time the at- tention of a man was attracted they made known their desire to speak to him by va- rious signs and looks. When any one be- came interested he was drawn off into some deorway or secluded corner. Then in a hushed voice, with pretty good English, and what looked like uneasy glances, the Spaniards said they had been successful in smuggling into the country a quantity of very valuable cigars which they were will- ing to dispose of for a price comparatively insignificant. Many thought they were be- ing offered something for nothing and bit. ‘The cigars bought were later pronounced domestic ones and of a very inferior qual- ity. The men are believed to be first-class land sharvers. Died Suddenly. Young Joaquin A. Morales. a native of Cuba, who with his brothers and sisters formerly resided on M street near Sist, Georgetown, died night before last at Rock Hiil College, Maryland. where he was study- ing.

The appointee is well and favorably known, and the appointment is, therefore, regarded as a good one Mr. Bur- dette succeeds Mr. E. E. King, who has tendered his resignation. Will Be Ratsed. The schooner Ellen Tobin, which sank at the, foot of 32d street some months ago with a load of stone on board, has had her entire cargo removed at last, and prepara- tions are now being made to empty her of water, She will,never be able to .recover trom. the shock received though, and is practically a total wreck. The responsibili- ty for the loss has not as yet been fixed. The schoones, it will be remembered, while at her wharf, moved a little, struck a rock and went down. The owners of the craft, northern men, hold Charles G. Smith re- | sponsible for the loss, and he the harbor authorities. The matter is now under con- sideration by the courts. Short Notes.

M. Waters. Mr. S. M. Waters in a statement to The Star-in respect to the proceedings which he had begun in the Equity Court, through his attorney, Mr. A. A. Lipscomb, to have his wife discharged as a committee to man- age his estate, sa ‘The language of the court was not that the said S. M. Waters was unfit to manage his estate, or that the case would be dismissed for the want of proof, but that the court remarked that it would be a more satisfactory way to sub- poena witnesses and examine them person- ally, that the court could determine the weight of their testimo! both from their testimony and from their demeanor.” Mr. Waters was discharged from the ernment Hospital for the Insane last April, and the language of the communica- tion sent to him by Dr. W. W. Godding was as follows: “In accordance with your verbal request, acquiesced in by your wife and I have directed that your dis- charge be entered this di This leav to seek employment where you wish.

Success of the Insurgent Fleet at Rio Janeiro. A London Times dispatch dated from Rio Janeiro says: Reports of insurgent suc- cesses are confirmed. They have captured Fort Lage and are making passage in the north. Peixoto is making every preparation for the defense of the city and declares that he intends to fight to the last. He expects to gain a victory when his ships arrive. The financial position of the government is difficult, as the treasury is empty. The , declaration that Pernambuco is in a state of siege shows the spread of the rebel move- ment. There is heavy artiller? fire daily. Many shots struck Villegaignon and Fort Lage, which were much damaged. Last Satur- day an officer and seventeen men were} | killed in the latter place by the bursting | of a shell. The heavy gun at San Joas has been dismounted. The fire from machine guns now makes parts of the city danger- ous. Many casualties occur im the streets. Diplomatists here consider it impossible to take further steps for the protection of the lives and property of foreigners. The commanders of the foreign warships here concur that Admirai Mello is inclined | to bombard the city after giving forty-eight hours’ notice. The general feeling of for- eign residents here favors letting both sides proceed without further interference. Admiral Gama confirms the statement that Admiral Mello intended to wait until | the end of the revolution and then take a vote of the country on restoring the mon- archy, Siege of Pernambuco. The New York Herald today publishes the following dispatch from the Brazilian minister of foreign affairs, corroborating | the news that Pernambuco has been de- clared in a state of siege: “The government having arrested an em- issary of Jose Mariano bearing dispatches to the rebels, by which it was learned that a plot to incite Pernambuco to insurrection j only awaited opportunity to be put into ex~ ecution, promptly declared that city in a state of siege, and some of his followers have been arrested. . “Otherwise that state remains in captive peace. It has come to our knowledge that the rebels on the Island of Destero more than twenty days ago arrested Robert Grant, the American vice consul, who had | gone there on the British steamer Merda | to bring away his family and some friends. After the arrest they forbade the vessel to hold any further communication with the shore, All the rest of the country is at peace.” A Young Cuban’s Joke. The hoax published by the Debats of Par- is that Prince Pierre, son’ of Count d’Eu, had started for Brazil is explained thus: “A wealthy Cuban named De Pedro, grandson of Senor Baro, who is known in the United States and England, was''amusged by the ingulsitorial methods ofthe Paris police toward foreigners, and he and his friends resolved to put up a practical joke on them. When De Pedro went to the station some of his party wore Spanish decorations, and | ostentatiously presented bouquets to him. “The young woman who accompanied De Pedro encouraged tie delusion of the police by treating him with mysterious deference. The police here telegraphed the police com- missary in St. Nazaire that Prinee Pierre | Was supposed to be on his way to the port. | De Pedro undeceived this official, who met him at the station, and embarked for vana without causing further commotion. eee IT WAS A RACE A Runaway Engine in Hot Pursuit of a Union Pacific Passenger Train. The Union Pacific fast mail had a nar- | vow escape Tuesday night on the Wyoming division from being crashed into by a run- jaway freight train in charge of Engineer Sadowsky. The fast mail was booming along near Simpson, Neb.. and following it was a freight which suddenly gave a lurch forward and Sadowsky. who is a new engineer, became rattled and lost control of his engine. In a few minutes he saw the lights of the rear of the mail and, fearing a collision, jumped from the engine, follow- ed by the fireman. The conductor and brakeman. realizing that something was ng, began applying the brakes The operator at a small sta- tion when the two trains dashed by saw that the engine was running away, and telegraphed the fact to ‘Medicine Bo When the fast mail stopped there to regis: ter the operator rushed out and told of the runaway train.
