Points of other | IN THE OLD WORLD Comments on the Government’s Es- cape From Defeat. DEATH OF A DEBT-RIDDEN MARQUIS Conflicts Between Bohemian Po- lice and Strikers. GENERAL FOREIGN MATTERS LONDON, April 10.—The Daily News, commenting upon the government's victory in the house of commons yesterday, says that the hopes of the enemy have been dis. appointed, and their machinatioas brought to naught. It adds that there was no radi- cal “cave.” Most of the Parnellites were absent. The crisis has subsided. Referring to Sir William Vernon Har- court, the Daily News says that his speech in support of his motion showed him to be the most powerful leader now left on either side of the house. It further says that Mr. Balfour's reply deserves sreat praise. The Times says that the government has escaped from its most immediate danger at the cost of a fright and a shaking. As the ministers stood shivering on the | brink of the dark waters of dissolution every influence was brought to bear to prevent the disaffected from pushing thet leaders into the stream. Mr, deigned to extend a sort of contemptuous patronage to the government. What the government hardly had a right to expect, however, was such tender treatment at the hands of John Redmond. The Times concludes with the declara- tion that the danger which was ave-ted yesterday must occur in an intensified form before the session is much older. BOHEMIAN RIOTERS CHARGED. jee and Striking PRAGUE, Bohemia, April 10.—A serious striking workmen and gendarmes at Daud- leb, a village near Keoniggratz. The riot- ers became so disorderly and threatened so much violence that after repeatedly calling upon the mob to disperse the gen- darmes charged with fixed bayonets, wounding a number of the strikers, who were finally dispersed. Riots caused by striking workmen have also taken place at Pilsen. At that place the police were utterly unable to cope with the mob, and the military authorities were called upon to suppress the disorder. Troops have been sent to the scene, and it is hoped that there will be no further trouble. FAVORS KEEPING UGANDA. Report of the Late Sir Gerald Portal Published. LONDON, April 10.—The report of the late Sir Gerald Portal, formerly British commissioner in Uganda, Africa, who died from typhoid fever in this city on Janu- ary 25, shortly after his return from Zan- zibar, is published. The report recommends that the British government retain its protectorate over Uganda, expressing the opinion that it is desirable, in the interests of British commerce from the Indian ocean to the Nile basin, that the British Chartered Com- pany cease to exist as a political or ad- ministrative body, either in the interior or within the limits of the sultanate of Zanzibar. In conclusion, the report recommends special precautions to be taken in order to prevent the trade in slaves, and sug- gests abandoning the idea of using the route by the lakes to the Zambesi. WELCOMED TO FLORENCE. Arrival of King Humbert Greeted With Cheers. FLORENCE, Italy, April 10.—King Hum- bert arrived here from Venice this morn- ing and was received by the Duke D’ Aosta, Sir Francis Clare Ford, the Britisn am- bassador, and the military and civil author- ities of the city. The railroad station at which the king alighted was handso-nely decorated, and ali the main thoroughfares were resplendent with flowers and bunting. The weather was splendid, and consequent- ly crowds of people thronged the streets and heartily cheered the king. At the palace King Humbert and the Duke D’Aosta received numerous deputations. Queen Margaret and the crown prince, who joined the royal party after the official welcome at the railroad station, were also enthusiastically cheered as they drove to = Lesigires xXtensive preparations are the visit of The King and uber ore ts Queen Victoria. The presence of the royal family of Italy in Florence and the fact that the Queen of England is stopping in the neighborhood of this city have attracted many thousands of visitors here, with the result that the hotels and boarding houses are packed to overflowing and that the prin- cipal storekeepers are doin i etpal @ rushing bus. DIED OWING A MILLION. End of the Marquis Who Marrica a Music Hall Singer. LONDON, April 10.—The death of the Marquis of Ailesbury at Brixton is an- nounced. The Marquis of Afiesbury, George Will- jam Thomas Brudenell Bruno, was born June 8, 1863, and was formerly a Heutenant in the Berkshire regiment. For years past the marquis has been at war with his creditors and {t was announced that he would shortly have been adjudged a bank- rupt if he was not able to pay the sum of $1,250,000, due to his creditors. The late marquis had been struggling against bankruptcy proceedings since 1S, and the negotiations for the sale of his | magnificent estates of Savernake, Wilt- pecuniary troubles. Lord Iveagh, better known as the fort head of the great firm of | was for a long time lo probable purchaser of Savernake forest, as the Marquis of Ailesbury was almost penniless and driven to the most desperate its in order to raise money. But the ytlations with Lord Ive: ing to the fact that th | quis, formerly Miss Doily ! star, who was married to the marquis at Brighton, refused to sign the papers neces- ry for the transfer of the estate. ‘The er wuiness, brewers, ked upon as the wife of the mar- sign the papers may be sought for fact that the marquis had been Mving with another woman at Krixton, near London, The title will fall to Lord Henry Augustus | Brandell Bruce, an uncle of the late mar- | quis.

Mr. Meyer was opposed to Mr. | Bland throughout the seigniorage bill strug- | gle and voted against it. For this reason | his proposition to coin the seigniorage un- der certain conditions is regarded as an overture from the anti-silver men to Mr. Bland’s followers. Mr. Meyer says of his bill: “I tind that it meets with favor from both of the financial elements in the House. silver men have said that we were unw to give any concession to silver, yet this is a proposition for the coinage of the silver | seigniorage if the Secretary of the Treasury lis empowered issue a low-int This latter provision commends the measure to the anti-silver element, who regard it as a fair compromise.

HARD WORDS USED Continued from Second Page. After recess Mr. Thompson continued his address to the jury, stating that he | would try to prove to the jury that under the circumstances and by the conduct of the parties to the suit there was wever any contract to marry made between, them. Furthermore, if they were of the opinion that there had been such a contract, they should, under the instructions of the court, conclude that Mr. Breckinridge wes ab- solved from the necessity of a fulfilment of the contract by the character of the plaintiff. In order to bring in any other verdict they must destroy a great deal of the most im- portant testimony in this case. They must consider Hiram Kaufman a deliberate per- | jurer; the same with Brand, with Rozell and | with Molly Shindlebauer. “And for what? | In order to cast a blot upon a self-confessed | woman of the town, Mr. Thompson then went on to remind the jury that Mr. Breck- inridge was at Versailles engaged upon a | murder trial when he is said to have been |in Lexington, and that the birth of her first | child was at’such a date that Mr. Breckin- | ridge could not have been the father. Mr. ‘Thompson ridiculed the idea that | the plaintiff was an innocent, guileless school girl. On the contrary, he said, she Was the most adept adventuress that ever 'd foot into a case or entered a A more clever, scheming woman could not be found, he continued, for while she claims to have been in Cincinnati! for the purpose of giving birth to a chiid of | the defendant's she wrote a letter bleed- , ing poor old Rodes for money. That letter was a natural demand upon the man who had caused her shame. a Bad as the plaintiff was, he did not think | she was bad enough to demand money from poor old Jim Rodes on his $40 a month sal- | if the father of the child was really Col. eckinridge. Col. Breckinridge was abun- dantly able to help her, and would have done all that he should have done for such a woman. In all his actions toward the plaintiff Col. Breckinridge had been the soul of generosity on all occasions. The plaintiff knew that even if Rodes was poor jhe had friends, Kaufman and others, who | were helping him out, and she was seeking to get as much money from him as she possthly could. This story of hers, he said, was an in- consistency and a falsehood. ‘Truth is con- | sistent and will show itself in a case like this, as everywhere else, but when an effort is made to interpolate anything like this it will not fit, but shows up clearly like a patch on a coat. | Tel a Story. This woman had attempted to take thera to a place where she claimed to have given birth to a child, but an attempt to imper- sohate some one else is an effort in criminal | | tactics that is almost certain to fail sooner | or later. Mr, Thompson referred to the | celebrated Tipton will ease in England to | show that sooner or later the deception will | be found out. This woman was a remarkable woman in every way, and a person who had once seen her would not be likely ever to forget her. He himself had never heard of a wo- gnan like her, He was reminded of a dog ‘Story that Proctor Knott used to tell down ‘n Kentucky. The story was a lengthy recital of how an old darky criticised a dog which he said “was not a dawg at all, but a female, and that her nose was as red as a beet and | turned up like a morning glory.” ‘The story was not particularly delicate, Mr. Thompson then went on to dissect | the plaintiff's account of what took place out in Cincinnati when she went, or claim- | ed that she went to the Foundling Hospital. | He characterized all this as a tissue of lies. He started to speak of Miss Pollard’s story, which he said she had sold to the New York World. Mr. Wilson callea him down on this, stat- jing that he had no reason to say she had | sold that article to the World. Judge Brad- |ley also remarked that there was no evi- dence in the case on that point at all. Mr. Thompson begged pardon for the un- jintentional misstatement, and then went |on to discuss the incident of the plaintiff's |visit to the Norwood Foundling Asylum. The whole meat of the case, he said, was lin the fact that she had stated to her at- torneys that she went there under the |name of Louise Wilson. When they came |to examine the records they found that no | such person had ever been at the hospital, jand then she attempted to adopt the name of Henrietta Bergwynne, when the name in the record was M. L, Bergwynne. Relieves His Mind. Miss Pollard’s testimony about all this, he said, was directly opposed to that of the sisters, and yet she had had the effrontery to tell the jury that they must believe her In preference to the sisters, and cast these into the category of deliberate perjurers along with Brand, Kaufman and Rozell. Mr. Thompson pai? an eloquent tribute to the devotion and self-sacrifice of these sisters, who turn their backs upon the pleasures of the world and devote them- selves to the noblest work of earth, the | work of saving fallen women. Turning | about to Mr. Carlisle he said, with tinger | raised: “When you talk about a dedication | like that you are talking about a dedica- tion as is a dedication.” He then came down to the matter of the | testimony of Dr. Belle Buchanan, as to her |testimony of what occurred in Cincinnati in 1885. He used this as an opportunity to | relieve his mind on the subject of woman | physicians generally in a manner that |rather made his audience catch their breath, | “By the way,” he said, “I don’t take much stock in female physicians, anyhow.” “1 have always noticed that whenever | there is an abcrtion case, a secret birth or any case that a reputable and respectable physician will not toach, you will usually find the hand of a female physician in it somewhere. They seem to have a particu- lar fondr.ess for that sort of thing.” Continuing, Mr. Thompson dwelt. particu- larly upon the discrepancy of the testimony as to whether it was Louise Wilson or Mrs. Bergwynne who was at the asylum. There were some reasons, he admitted, for the be- | | will vote lief that they were one and the same per- son. But it didn’t make the slightest bit of | difference to the plaintiff's case. When she was on the stand she had stated that as soon after the birth of her child as she was able she went to call upon the father. Upon her return she told Dr, Buchanan that she had seen the father of her child and that he had offered marriage, but that she would not accept him, as her love had turned to| | hatred. | | If the truth of that statement was ad-| mitted it would throw out her case, for | | Mr. Breckinridge was married at the time and could not have offered her marriage. In eloquent tones Mr. Thompson led upon the lawyers for the plaintiff to answer hat argument. | “We will, all in* good time,” answered Mr. Wilson quietly, taking a note on | | slip of par | The Mother's Love. | With reference to the story that the | | plaintif’ did not know of the death of that child, Mr. Thompson spoke of it as a most | inhuman and unnatural performance. Real | mothers do not act that way, said the | speaker, and then he went on to paint a glowing picture of mother’s love and de- | votion. With such love ss this Mr. contrasted the lov the plaintifY had claimed to be. of her as shedding crocodile t death of other women's ¢ dile tears,” he said, “that the money in the man’s pock | Mr. Thompson took up the matter of the | Christmas card, and called the attention of the jury to the fact that the letter D writ- non the back of the card bore a striking emblance to several D's in the plaintiff's lletters.

HILL’S SPEECH It Has Excited Much Indignation Among Democrats in Congress. SPECULATION AS 10 HIS SUPPORT With Republican Aid He May De- feat the Tariff Bill. TO DRAW LINES TIGHTER An immense amount of indignation has been excited among democrats in Congress by Mr. Hill’s speech. There has not at any time been any doubt in the minds of those who have held their eyes and ears open that Mr. Hill would oppose the tariff bill to the last ditch and then cast his vote with the republicans, The boldness of his speech and the freedom with which he takes a position concerning which there can be no doubt leads to the inference that he feels confident of a sufficient following to render his efforts effective. Of course, under the rules of the Senate it would not be an impossible task for him, aided by the republicans, to pre- vent the bill coming to a vote for many months, but it is believed that he has confi- dence in his possession of a greater power and that he will try to defeat the bill by votes. Speculation as to His Support. The speculation is as to whether he will sustained in his position by Murphy and by Smith. With those two votes to sustain him he could kill the bill. or seven Senators on the democratic side of the chamber who will vote to strike the income tax feature out of the bill, but there is no doubt felt that all but these three for the bill finally, even if the income tax is retained. On the other hand, it is not thought that Hill would vote for the bill, even if that feature were stricken out. When Croker was here during the con- sideration of the Wilson bill in the House he disclosed his purpose to have the bill defeated, regardless of the income tax, but thought that clause would furnish a good reason for the attack upon the bill. It is pretty well understood that Mr. Hill's sen- timents do not differ greatly from those of Mr. Croker in this respect. Indeed, he dis- closed almost as much in his speech, and it is not thought that the bill could be so changed as to get his vote. The Income Tax Not to Be Stricken | Out. There is very little chance that the in- come tax will be stricken from the bill in | the Senate. It is believed that more repub- | licans will vote, with one motive and an- other, to retain that feature in the bill than there will be democrats who will vote to strike it out. But if it were possible to str’ke it out of the bill in the Senate the sentiment in favor of an income tax is so strong in the House that no agreement could be reached on a bill not including it. It is generally conceded therefore that the | two propositions of a reduction of duties | and the levying of an income tax must stand or fall together. The action of the republicans in agreemg that the tariff bill should occupy the time of the Senate each day this week without interruption, from 1 o'clock until 5, is of doubtrul significance. There is no doubt that the democrats were anxious about the vote expected today on Mr. Harris" proposi- tion for the Senate to meet at 11 o'clock each day. They were not at all certain that the motion would not fail, and its failure would practically have sealed the doom of the tariff bill. Aside from the pos- sibility, perhaps probability, that the ino- tion would fail, there was threatened when when the Senate adjourned yesterday that @ systematic filibuster would be inaugur- ated at once. The terms of the agreement offered by Mr. Aldrich today were in effect just whai Mr. Harris wanted, and a great feeling of relief followed. Why the Republicans Agreed. What induced the republicans to make the agreement is a matter of doubt. It may have been no more than a desire on their part to avoid the starting of a filibuster thus early in the proceedings, Which would necessitate a long sustained effort with ex- hausting consequences. it may be that they are confident enough in their ability, with the aid of Mr. Hill and his friends, to defeat the bill on a di- rect’ vote. But what is more shrewdly regarded as the fact in the case is that those democrats who are working with the republicans interposed to prevent a test vote being forced at this time, which would necessitate their all openly’ taking | a position on one side or the other at the very outset. At all events, a very interest- ing vote was avoided, to the gratification of both sides of the conflict. Will Pass the Bi It is the purpose of the advocates of the bill after they have run along through this week under the agreement, to try to get something better and from time to time to press harder and harder upon the oppos' tion, so as to draw the lines tighter and tighter at every turn of the wheel. Some of the democratic Senators profes: to feel a relief since Hill has defined his position and say that there may be Sen- ators as much opposed to the bill as he, who will be satisfied to let him occupy’ that position alone, feeling as they will, that it disposes of him as a possible candidate for the presidency. ssenger Statio: At the afternoon session of the board of | Commissioners today the report upon the bill amending the charter of the Wash- ington and Great Falls Railway Company was completed. The first part of the route designated in the charter of this company is along the Canal road from a point west of the Aque- duct bridge. On this part of its route the company is ubliged to lay its tracks on an elevated structure, to build a masonry wall between the road and the Chesapeake and Ohio canal and to pave the road. The 1 charter expires by limitation July The Commissioners, in their re- port, say that the present bill proposes a change of route, by which the road is to wholly avoid the Canal road, and to enter Georgetown over the New Cut road and P street, and thence run through Georgetown to 3ist and M streets, with a branch d street. The bill would me of completion of that also extend the part of the six montns and of the part outside District about eighteen months. The proposed amended route appears to the District Commissioners highly objec- tionable, the report says, and is not recom- merded by them. A river route, for enter- ing Georgetown, but not necessarily on of the « Canal road, is judged to be a preferable « line, The mmissiouers say they had in view the establishment of a union street car passenger station near and east of the north end of the Aqueduct bridge, but out- side of the space of M street. Street rail- Ways entering Georgetown by the Aqueduct bridge or from the west should terminate, they say, at this station, and the Washing- ton and Georgetown railroad should be ended to it. rhe necessary legislation for this exten- ion will be ‘subsequently ommended. he Great Falls comp: ny represent that in its charter of the occu- y of the Canal road are so onerous as hibit the construction of the railroad, | The Commissioners judge that it would be le sive for the company and better the public interests if the railroad ran long a priv: ght of way north of Canal road to the Union station. In conformity with the general scheme indicated above, the Commissioners amend the bill. —————_+- e -___ ITOL TOPICS, Contested Election Cases, The elections committee of the House has ided to take a vote on the conteste cases of Moore vs. Funston from Kansas, and Thrasher vs. Enloe from Tenne: the 17th instant.

POND CREEK, 0. T., April 10.—As the |south-bound train, No. 1, on the Rock \Island was approaching the Arkansas river, four miles south of here, at 4 o'clock a masked robber boarded the engine, which was running slowly, as usual, in approach- the bridge at this poi and leveling two revolvers at the engineer's head he com- manded him to stop the train. The engi- neer at first made a show of resistance, but the threatening attitude of the robber jovercame any desire he may have had to |guard the company’s property.

Harmon finally positively refused | to open up. | The robbers then placed a stick of 4yna- | mite under the car and a deafening ex- | plosion followed, blowing the side of the car away. One of the robbers approached the car, and as soon as he seen by Messen- | ser Harmon the latter opened fire on the | rebber and killed him instantly. As «oon as the others saw the gameness displayed by Messenger Harmon, they attempted to retreat, but Harmon followed, keeping up | | a continuous fire, and succeeded in wound. | ing another of the gang. The injured ma: | fell in his tracks, but the other robbers got away. It is thought, however, that some of them have been injured seriously. The trainmen went and picked up the dead and wounded robbers, and, after p'acing them aboard the train, returned to Pond Creek. | Some of the citizens believe them to be | members of the Dalton gang.
