WARNING TO FRANCE The Sensation of the Day in Lon- don. ENCROACHMENTS ON THE NIGER Damages for the Loss of the Val- & kyrie. GENERAL FOREIGN TOPICS LONDON, March 29.—The statement which Sir Edward Grey, parliamentary sec- retary of the foreign office, made in the house of commons last night, saying that an advance of the French into the terri- tery of the upper Nile valley, belonging to the Royal Niger Company, and therefore under British protection, would be an un- friendly act, and that it was well known to France that Great Britain would so re- gard it, is causing a profound sensation here and on the continent. Sir Edward's announcement, which was read from notes believed to have been written by the sec- retary of state for foreign affairs, the Earl of Kimperly, is looked upon as revealing the extremely critical relations now exist- ing between France and Great Britain. The fact that the statement was prepared in writing beforehand emphasizes the seri- ousness of the situation and shows that were word embodies the views of the cab- inet. In brief, the statement is that it is prov- ing daily more dificult to live on good terms with France; that Great Britain has made concession after concession in the past two years in the interests of peace, but that the end has now come; that it is found necessary to warn France from the ministerial bench. The most important and significant por- tion of Sir Edward Grey's statement was the following ut something beside our own efforts is necessary, and that is the co-operation of the French government and the French people.” 5 Mr. Labouchere interpreted the prevailing feeling of the members as to the ministerial statement as a menuce to France and a quasi declaration of war, and it is felt that such a tone would not be adopted by the government unless milder representa- tions had failed of the desired effect. Borgu is the object of the contention be- tween the two powers, and the control of this region is regarded in England as a matter of very great importance. Borgu fs situated on the eastern banks of the river Niger, to the northwest of the Brit- ish colony of Lagos. The latter is the most flourishing West African colony of England, and the English are anxious that the French shall not be permitted to hem it in to the coast, as they have succeeded in doing in the case of Gambia, Sierra Leone and the Gold Coast.* The Anglo-French agreement of 1890 put Borgu under British protection. Since then the French have conquered Dahomey and have extended their African dorain and have disregarded the 18) agreement. This England resents. 2 Damages for the Valkyrie. The court of appeals has reversed the de- cision of the admiralty court in the case of Valkyrie IJ. and Satanita for damages resulting from the sinking of the former by the latter on July 5, 1894, on the first day of the Mudhook Yacht Club regatta in the Clyde, just previous to the start in the race for the Muir memorial cup, in which event Britannia scored her first vic- tory over Vigilant. Lord Dunraven is only the nominal plaintiff in the suit, which is really brought by the underwriters. ‘The court of appeals kas now awarded Lord Dunraven £5,000 damages, holding that under the regatta rules a contract was created between the yacht owners which took the race out of the merchant shipping act. The admiralty court, it will be re- membered, limited the damages to £8 per ton, or a total of £ ‘The owner of Sata- nita, Mr. A. D. Clarke, will now appeal to the house of lords. The Venezuelan Boundary. No communications have been exchanged recently between Great Britain and Vene- zuela on the frontier question. Great Britain has given no assurances that there will be no further trespassing on Vene- zuelan territory, as stated in any dispatch. Great Britain will recognize only the Schemburg line as the frontier. Hering Sea Regulations. In regard to the published statement that Canada has urged Great Britain not to further paralyze British industry by assenting to the enforcement of the Bering sea regulations of 1805, it is officially learn- ed that whatever Canada may desire the decision of the Paris arbitration will be strictly adhered to during the ensuing sea- son, aad any side issue will not be allowed to affect that decision. The Grand National Steeplechase. In spite of the scratching of Mr. C. G. Duff's Cloister and the bad weather pre- vailing, great crowds of people assembled today at Aintree, near Liverpool, to wit- ness the grand national steeplechase. The grand national steeplechase was for 2,500 sovereigns, inclusive of a trophy valued at 100 sovereigns, second horse to receive sovereigns and third horse to receive 200 sovereigns from the stakes; a handicap for four. r-ol and Is; grand na tional course, about miles and 856 yards.

The Earl of Kimberly, secretary of state for foreign affairs, in receiving a deputa- tion from the Armenian Assoeiation to- day expressed warm sympathy with the objects of the association, and said that the government was doing its best to make the inquiry into the outrages in Armenia as thorough and searching @s_ possible. He added that independent reports would be made by the European representatives. The main object in view was to secure in the future protection for the lives, prop. erty, creed and lands of the say that Great Britain had the co-operation of France and Russig, both of whicty coun- tries were convinced of the necessity of reform. One of the chief problems is how to bring about the xgsults desired without raising in an acute erm the eastern ques- tion. He thought theytime opportune for dealing with the mattér in such a fashion 3 to avoid danger. When the time came for action the government would not be found waiting. In conclusion, the Earl of Kimberly said that the government was irretrievably pledged to take steps to bring about reform in Armenia. General Foreign Topics.

Ailsn Defeats Britannia’ in a Fresh Wina! NICE, March 29.—Alisa and Britannia, with a strong westerly wind blowing and a slight sea running, started,.at 11 o’clock today, with reefed mainsatts and housed topmasts, in the race for the James Gordon Bennett cup, valued at $2,500, and $2,500 in specie. zee Ailsa, however, had two reefs in her mainsail, while Britannia contented her- self with one reef. fe The Prince of Wales’ cutter crossed the line with a lead of three lengths and kept ahead on the close reaehing to the first mark boat. There Britannia stayed and Ailsa kept away round, and. Britannia lost her lead. In the run for the next mark Ailsa led by twenty-three seconds at the lee mark. From there it was a close reach home, and the first round was concluded as follows Ailsa, 12h. 1m. Us. || Britannia, 12h. 1m, 34s. Britannia, however, regained the lead in beating off shore to the first mark and was twenty seconds ahead at that point. The grand race between the two crack yachts continued, but in the beat home to the finish of the second round Ailsa re- passed the Britannia. The times of the two yachts at the end of the second round were: noe Ailsa. 1 2 00 Brita 1: 22 2 The fini: Was a good one. The time of the two yachts in crossing the line at the end of the race were: ie bk Ailsa. 2 48 Britan 2 48 The result of today’s race proves conclu- sively that Ailsa will be a good boat in a fresh wind and a sea when thoroughly fit for racing. The contest between the two cutters today was one of the finest races ever seen. Both yachts wefe sailed in mas- terly style, and the result forms a reliable test of the two racers, aé the advantage gained was about evenly balanced. —_—>—_ RIGHTS OF THE FLAG. An American Not Allowed to Unfarl It in the Congo. INDIANAPOLIS, March 29.—Carl Steck- elman, an American citizen, who has been in the Congo region of Africa for several years, writes to friends here that he is in trouble with the French. His letter is written from Maynumba. He maintains that under the Berlin treaty he has the right to display the American flag over his house and over his boats. The French, he says, will not permit him to display the flag. He asks that Secretary) Gresham's attention be called to the treatment he ts receiving. He says the French are becom- ing unbearable in the “conventional basin of the Congo.” a The first act of the French, Mr. Steck- elman_ says, was to order all American flags down on land. About the first of the year they directed that the stars and stripes should not be displayed over boats. In the course of his letter Mr. Steckel- Armeni: Se it ae ke necessary i i ry man says: ask you to make n wy, Christians. In this object he was giad to tigulties eomsthay Heneueovernmenteas to what rights I have in the conventional pasin of the Congo, and if I put up my flag what shall I do if I am ordered to take it down? Will the.government assist me when the French arrest. me for hoist- ing a flag in a district where I have a right to do so under the Berlin treaty? To what consul or commander of a boat shall I apply for aid? Such a state of things simply unbearable. Bt mets a few paragraphs of the Berlin treaty. In making inquiry, be particular-to sk if this treaty gives me-also the right isplay the stars and-stripes over my to house and land, and if;I’my permitted to hoist my flag when trayeling in a canoe bought from natives, or aver:a boat bought in Europe.” Steckelman quotes the following aragraph from the Berlip treaty: Paral flags, without distigctian of national- ity, shall have free accegs.tq the whole of the coast line of the stepritories above enumerated, to the rivers there running into the sea, to all the water§ of the Congo and its tributaries, including the lakes, and to all the ports situated, onthe banks of these waters, as well as to all canals which may in future be constructed with intent to unite the water courses or lakes within the entire area of the territories described in article 1. ‘Those trading under such flag may engage in all sorts of transport and carry on the coasting trade by sea and river, as well as boat traffic on the same footing as if they were subjects.” é Friends here will refer Mr. Steckelman’s cemplaint to Mr. Gresham. — An International Match.

The song, “Seeking for Me,” affectingly sung by the entire school, closed an appropriate ceremony. —S Hillsdale Citizens’ Association.

A pick handle and stone figured in an assault case tried in the Police Court this morning, although only the stone was used.

WANTED (Situatious) PLR AMARATANTAE RARE ROT CHARGED WITH ASSAULT. The Allegation on Which Israel Powell Was Arrested. An elderly man with gray hair and beard was a prisoner in Judge Miller's court this morning. He had given his name as Israel A. Powell and his age as sixty years. When arrested yesterday by Policeman Jackson he said he was a physician, and that he lives at 1115 G street. It is charg- ed that yesterday afternoon between 4 and 5 o'clock a little girl, who was playing in Farragut Square, was called by the de- fendant, who sat her on his knee and be- came entirely too familiar with her. The case was called for trial today, but Judge Weed, the prisoner’s counsel, de- manded a jury trial, and this necessitated a continuance until next week. Judge Miller fixed bail in the case at $300. The police say that the same man was arrested once before on a similar charge and fined. ——._—_. She Had Tags. Police Pat Creagh was in the Police Court again today. This time hé had a charge against Mary Kelly for alleged fail- ure to have collars and tags on her dogs. He did not cfaim that she had no tags, but that she failed to have them on her dogs. Mary admitted her guilt, but claimed she had a good excuse for not having them on her canines. “I had them on my dogs two years ago, she said, “‘and the neighbors stole them. Two of Mary’s neighbors were in court and they told of how much they had been annoyed by the dogs under the house. Mary promised to comply with the law and the court took her personal bonds. a Jumped From the Window. Harriet Ward, a colored woman, a patient in Columbia Hospital, jumped from the second-story window of the hospital about 7 o'clock last evening and was out of sight when the attendants reached the sidewalk. The women had feared that the doctors were going to perform an operation on her which would result in her death, and for this reason she jumped from the window and tried to escape. About midnight the woman was found near Florida avenue and th street and was sent to Freedmen’s Hos- pital for treatment. She was badly bruised about the back and body and may have sustained internal injuries. Harriet is thirty-five years old and lives near Arling- ton. eee Lively Ranaway. Calvin McGraw, driver for Lew Calisher, the East Washington jeweler, figured in an exciting runaway yesterday. The horse, in addition to running away, did some kick- ing, and the driver sustained a number of painful cuts and bruises about the head and face. ——— Death of Miss Floy Hatcher.
