NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, JULY 2, 1879.—TRIPLE SHEET. LATEST CABLE NEWS. Jerome Declared the Head of the Napoleonic Dynasty. THE DEAD PRINCE. Navaland Military Honors Proposed. THR GERMAN CABINET. Bismarck Enraged with the Ultramontanes. {RISH UNIVERSITY BILL " [BY CABLE TO THE HERALD. | Lonpoy, July 2, 1879. M. de Blignitres, the dismissed French repre- sentative Minister in the ex-Khedive’s cabinct, has left Egypt for Paris. The city of Bremen has petitioned the Ger- man government to admit foreign built vessels | and shipbuilding materials impost free. The condition of the ex-Empress Eugénie still tauses anxiety. Although calm, she remains physically prostrated and takes but little nour- ishment. Queen Victoria has commanded that the troop ship Orontes, bearing the body of the Prince Imperial, shall be escorted on a part of her voyage by the Channel fleet. The Morning Post’s Berlin despatch says that the German government has recalled its consuls | from Cyprus in consequence of a difference with England regarding their status. ‘The correspondent of the Times at Berlin re- ports that there is a serious decrease in the ex- port of grain from Russia, and that this decrease seriously threatens the imperial budget. The correspondent of the Times at Odessa suys that General Todleben has ordered the abolition of all money subscriptions. * This mea- sure is done in order to prevent aid being given to political offenders. Mr. Edison’s London patent agents filed on | Saturday the final specification for a third and | inost important English patent on the subject of the electric light, which relates to an electric | lamp or burner of platinum or an alloy of | platinum. i In the elections for members of the Austrian | Reichsrath thus far the clerical and nationalist parties have gained fifteen seats from the con- stitutionalists. The Vienna newspapers discuss the possibility of a reorganization of the Cabinet on a conservative basis. A despatch to the Times from Constantinople says :—‘'The return of Mahmoud Nedim Pacha scems to indicate an approaching change in the Turkish Ministry.” It is also believed in Con- stantinople diplomatic circles that Mahmoud Nedim will soon enter the Cabinet. It is said that ‘'ewfik Pacha, the new Viceroy of Egypt, has agreed to surrender one-half of his father’s civil list. The saving to Egypt would be $780,000 annually. The correspondent of tle Daily News telegraphs from Alexandria | that the Prince is appointing excellent advisers. A MEMORIAL TO THE DEAD PRINCE. The Duke of Cambridge, Commander-in-Chief of the British army, heads a committee of army officers to superintend the raising of a memorial to the late Prince Imperial. Field Marsbals Lord Strathnairn and Sir. Charles York, Lieu- tenant General Prince Edward of Saxe Wei- mar, General Lord Napier of Magdala and nearly all the best known generals of the army are members of the committee. BISMARCK AND THE ULTRAMONTANES. The Standard’s Berlin correspondent says:— “The new plan of the ultramontanes is to estab- lish a tariff which will produce 120,000,000 marks yearly, that being the sum reqnired by the States. This would give Prince Bismarck no fresh revenue. It is reported Prince Bis- marck is so incensed that he threatens to break with the ultramontanes.” GERMAN CABINET CHANGES. The Standard’s Berlin correspondent an- nounces that Dr. Falk and Dr. Friedenthal have tendered their resignations. A despatch from Berlin to the Pall Mull Gazette says:—Herr “Ho- brecht, the Minister of Finance, _ re- fuses to withdraw his resignation unless the constitutional guarantees demanded by the liberals relative to the disposition of the surplus revenue be conceded. It is ex- pected that Herr Falk, the Minister of Ecclesi- astical Affairs, and Dr. Friedenthal, the Minis- ter of Agriculture, will make a similar stipulation. It is reported that Prince Bismarck is wavering. The ultramontanes also demanded additional guarantees beyond those provided in Herr Frankenstein’s motion to distribute the surplus revenue among the several States.” TURKEY AND GREECE. The official correspondence on the Greek ques- tion has been published in London. Lord Salis- bury, the British Foreign Secretary, suggested to the Porte that it shouldanake a spontancous cession of territory to Greece, by which the Sultan's Empire would be really for tified, A Constantinople despatch says that the Porte refuses to discuss tlie | question of the surrender of Janina. A despatch to the Times, from Constantinople, says there ix reason to believe the Powers have disagreed with regard to the recommendations to be made to the Porte for the settlement of the Greek frontier question. A PARIS NEWSPAPER SUPPRESSED. ‘The Telograph’s Paris despatch says :—“The publishers of the Lanterne have been summoned before the courts. Nearly the whole Paris presw condemns the action of the Prefect of Police in seizing that journal.” In the Chamber of Depu- ties M. Bouchet questioned . the yovermnent respecting the seizure, The Pretect of Police replied that he was not striking at the Lanternes but at an association which was trying to dis” organize the Prefecture of Police. M. Lepére, Minister of the Interior, maintained that the conduct of the Prefect of Police was legal. The | discussion then closed. Paris’ despatches report that in the debate on the s ure of the Lanterne in the Chamber of Deputies M. Albert Christople charged | that the proprietors founded the Lanterne | with money obtained by the sale of a paper | which had attacked a great financial establish. | ment (believed to be the Crédit Foncier), and | that that establishment paid 30,000f. for the yaper. TUN MUSH UNIVERSITY BILL. The Times, in « leading editorial article on the government's new Irish University bill, says:— “The creation of a mere examining board, which is all that is proposed by Lord Cairns’ Irish Uni- versity bill, will not satiafy public feeling, but | Us bill ie watep in the right direction. ‘here | is, apparently, nothing in it to preclude its being supplemented by some scheme of endowment.” THE NAPOLEONIC DYNASTY. THE BONAPARTISTS AGREEING TO ACKNOWLEDGE PRINCE JEROME AS THE HEAD OF THE NA- POLEONIC D¥NASTY—THE PRINCE'S WILL. {BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.1 Lonpon, July 1, 1879. Tho correspondent of the London Times at Paris says:—‘A majority of the Bonapartists are understood to concur with M. Rouher in acknowledging Prince Jerome Bonaparte as chief of the Napoleonic dynasty. They argue | that the will of the late Prince Imperial, which asks the ex-Empress Eugénie to co-operate with Prince Vietor, was written on the assumption that the testator would survive Prince Jerome Bonaparte. This reasoning, however, is consid- ered a transparent excuse for the non-observance of the impracticable will of the Prinee Imperial. M. Rouher’s retirement from active politics is evidently owing to a feeling that he and Prince Jerome could not act together and the latter could not be set aside. What, between Prineo Jerome Bonaparte’s possible adherence to the Republic And the impossibility of the clerical section of the Bonapartists choosing a leader without either acting against the wishes of the Prince Imperial’s will or provoking a distinct disavowal from Prince Victor, the Bonapartists are in one of the most perplexing positions ever occupied by any party. WILL OF THE PRINCE IMPERIAL. The Paris Gaulois publishes the codicil to the will of the Prince Imperial. He says:—‘‘The duties which our honse owe to our country will not lapse by my death; the ar- duous and glorious task of continuing the work of the first Napoleon will depend, in the event of my death, upon the oldest son of Prince Jerome Napoleon, who, by the laws of succes- sion of our house, is my heir. I trust that my beloyed mother, by seconding him in the dis- charge of the responsibilities and duties which, in the event of my death, will devolve upon him, will give to me, when I am no longer upon this earth, this last and supreme proof of her af- | feetion for me and of her love of France.” HANLAN'S FAREWELL TO ENGLAND. HIS DEPARTURE FROM LIVERPOOL YESTERDAY IN THE STEAMSHIP CITY OF CHESTER— LUNCHEON AT CONSUL PACKARD’S. [BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.] Liverroot, July 1, 1879. Edward Hanlan, the Toronto oarsman, left Manchester at noon to-day for this city. Before leaving Manchester he prepared a reply to the recent decision of the trustees of the “Sportsman Cup,” which he caused to be forwarded to the London Sportsman and the Neweastle Chronicle. Hanlan and his party reached this city about one o'clock, and drove at once to the | residence of Mr. Stephen B. Packard, United States Consul, where they had been invited to luncheon. Hanlan was accompanied by Mr. David Ward, of Toronto, and Mr. Samuel Coulson, of Montreal. At Cpnsul Packard's they met Colonel Albert D. Shaw, United States Consul at Manchester, and several other American gentlemen, ~ Mr. Packard proposed the health of Hanlan, and in a felicitous speech congratulated him on the great victory which he had achieved. He said he regarded it as an American victory, inasmuch as Hanlan repre- | sented the great continent of America. He con- eluded by wishing him a pleasant voyage. COURTESIES AND FAREWELL. ~Hanlan replied in a brief speech, thanking Mr. Packard for his generous words, and said | he should remember with pride the kind recep- tion given him by the representatives of the United States in England. Mr. Packard next proposed the health of the special friends of Hanlan, coupling with it the names of Shaw, Ward and Coulson. Colonel Shaw assured the host that his reception of the Canadian cham- pion was a graceful act, which the friends and countrymen of Mr. Hanlan would ever re- member. After several brief speeches the party accompanied Hanlan and his friends on board the City of Chester. As the tender cast off from the steamship in the Mersey Hanlan was heartily cheered. The champion left England in the besw of spirits, but appeared to feel the neglect with which he has been treated by lead- ing Englishmen, who have almost ignored his presence among them, On board the steam- ship Hanlan was presented with a wreath of flowers.. The Hanlan Club will become the custodian of the eup until it is challenged by England, when Hanlan will be sent to defend it. ROWING ON THE TYNE—A BETTER CLASS OF OARSMEN IN THE FUTURE—HANLAN’S PARTY— ECHOES OF THE RACE. New@ast.e, June 17, 1879. ‘Ton or twelve days hence the story of Hanlan’s great victory and the fact that he is champion of America and England will be so old that it seems scarcely worth while to add anything by mail to what you learned on the day itsclf by cable, Still, the most important boat race that has ever taken place on the championship course in England is ® subject that cannot be com- pletely exhausted by cable, and 1 send you a few additional paragraphs, which may be interesting. I was speaking at Newcastle with an Englishman about the race, and, finding him a very decided admirer and backer of the American, felt inclined to take him to task for not standing up for his own champion, “Well, the fact is,” he said, “I am a great admirer of brains, and Llook at these things from an unprejudiced and common sense point of view. Here in Newcastle, for instance, the head- quarters of the professional sculler in Engiand, we have been going on year after year producing seullers of the same type, rowing in the same kind of way in boats and with appliances of unchanging style. The Amoricans, with Whom rowing 18 0 com- paratively new thing, no sooner. go thoroughly into | it than they set to work to improve everything. | First, the sliding seat; then the swinging rowlock and the broader bladed scull; then comes, naturally enough, the man (Hanlan) who knows how to use the improvements, and is himself the incaynation of modern development in sculling—the latest and best thing out, as it were. Why one would have thought that these improvements would have been discovered and perfected and the great man (oand here on the Tyne, and not have been brought to it by a man hailing from a place thousands of miles away, It is #0, however, and what fol- lows? Why @ lot of cock-and-bull rumors got about after the first victory of Hanlan; concealed machines in his boat, clock-work appuratus for driving the sliding seat, and, for all I know, many ‘Tynesiders may think that the rower himself is a steam man! No, I like brains, I prefer muscle and brains to muscle and no brains, That's why 1 am down upon the Lyne men, It is truly patriotic to be down upon them.” saw the point of this phi- losophy, Lt is well known now, and admitted on all sides that Hanlan has revolutionized the art of sculling on the Lyne, When he is seen on Lonion waters, sf he is ever seen between Putney and Mort- lake, he will at there eventually the amateur as well as the prntearignal: will have to give in and follow the Hanlan style. ROWING ON THE TYNE. | The result of the race, astouns to Tynesiders and damaging to their pockets, is bailed with the greatest delight by the temporary colony of Can- adians and Americans blished in Newcastle since Hanlan’s first appeai on the river, although in their minds it has always been a foregone con- clusion, Colenel Shaw and Mr..David Ward, of Toronto, have been modestly confident of winning all along, and so has their principal, than whom « more modest, unassuming, frank and honest man does not exist. in or out of a wager boat. No man was ever better care’ for and looked after than Havlan has been by his two big nurses. Colonel Shaw, president of the Hanlgn Club and Consul ot the United State: Mal chester, has aot only exercised a truly paternalsupe vision over the young champion, even sharing his room at the ‘Ord Arms,” Scotswood, as the time for | the race drew nigh, but has been chiefly instrumen- tal in elevating bout racing on the Tyne te a position it has never before held. It was to the untiring per- severance of the gallant Colonel that Dr, Lukegarm- strong, an eminent citizen of Newcastle, who, though greatly interested in Tyne boating matters, | had never done such a thing as ‘be referee in a pro- fessional match, consented to act in that capacity in both Hanlun’s races, Mr.jWard has trom the first hadc ntroi of the training of the champion and has arranged and supervised all the personal details con- nected with the two matches rowed in this country. | Mr. Ward is proud, and has reason to be 50, of his association with Hanlan in his many great races, aud the champion on his part is grateful for the de- yotion with which Mr. Ward has followed and as- sisted his victorious carcer. Next to Mr. Ward comes Mr. John Davis, of Windsor, as one of Han- lan’s supporters. The American party was in tact admirably organized and took a tirm, dignified stand throughout both matches, which has insured them the respect of all true lovers of sport m New- castle, notwithstanding the tact that their extraordi- nary cathusiasm for aquatics, for aquatics’ sake, is not quite understood of appreciated by the purely professional clement. NEW CUSTOMS, It is not merely to the actual mechanical features of the transatlantic oarsman’s method that the Tynesiders have had their eyes opened. The ad- vent of Hanlan and his party has considerably raised the standard of aquatics on the north country © river, but in minor mutters also the Tynesiders have had a lesson, as, for instance, in the “colors” of the competitors and in rowing ‘costume. It is doubtful whether a Tyne professional will ever con- sent to row in anything but nature’s garb, to strip _ to the waist is a matter of course with them. Hanlan’s beautiful dress of dark blue, sleeveless and ending above the knee, created quite a furore | when it first appeared onthe river, aud his hand- | some face and splendid form set it off to the best ad- | vantage. Then the taste displayed in his colors, the triple shield of the three great English speaking na- | tions interested in his efforts, the maple wreath—all | this was new to a cn of scullers whose ideas | of sporting colors did .not rise above a big flag on a | | | | pole stamped in the middle of the handkerchief.

BRITISH SAVAGES AND HALF BREEDS ACROSS THE BORDER IN PURSUIT OF GAME—EN- COUNTERS WITH AMERICAN REDSKINS—SEBI- OUS DIFFICULTIES ANTICIPATED—GENERAL MILES TO THE RuscuE, [BY TZLEGRAPH To THE HERALD.) Wasuinaroy, July 1, 1879. General Miles was instructed by the War Depart | ment to-day to proceed at once with sufficient force to repel the invasion of British Indians who have crossed our border in pursuit of buffalo, and are now menacing the Gros Ventres, Assiniboines and other tribes located in the northern part of Moutana, Information of this invasion was received at the In- terior Department yesterday afternoon, and the War Department was promptly notified of the necessity | of acting at once to prevent further trouble, the news received being to the cilect that the British Indians were well armed and hud already made attacks upon the American Indians, driving the lat- ter southward, : REPORT OF THE INDIAN AGENT. The report received from the Indian Agent at the Gros Ventres Agency, Montana, under date of June 16, was that invaders had already killed a number of buffalo, and that the American Indians, in their effort to protect their own game, had had several skirmishes, with loss of life on both sides. The difficulty is, in the opinion of officials at the Interior Department, a serious one. STATEMENT OF SECRETARY SCHURZ. Secretary Schurz says that for some time there have been apprehensions of such an invasion, as the encroachment of white settlements upon the domain of the Indians in the British pos- sessions has been gradually contracting the territory available to the British Indians for supplying themselves with subsistence by hunting. For some time these Indians have en- croached upon our territory, pursuing game which could not be found within the limits of British ter- ritory. Canadian officials, it is understood, have anticipated these troubles, but the mounted police employed in keeping the peace have confined their labors to patrolling the line between the white settlements and the Indian reservations. Their number is said not td exceed three hundred, and no attention has been given to the repeated encroach- ments upon American territory. CANADIAN INDIAN DIFFICULTIES. The same difficulties which have been experienced in the management of our Indians now beset the Canadians, who have already sought advice and re- ports t tain the methods employed by our Indian Bureau. rough agents sent to Washington to ascer- | The present invasion is regarded as unfortunate by | our officials, and the Secretary of State will at once | communicate to the British Minister the facts and — apprehensions of our government, urging the im- portance of protecting our peaceably disposed Indians from such aggravating causes for re- volt and insubordination. The appropriation made by Congress for teeding the Northern tribes is so small as to compel them to seck support by hunt- ing, and if the already fast disappearing herds of | buffalo are to be depended upon for subsistance the importance of protecting the hunting grounds of our Indians will be readily understood. By those who are thoroughly informed of the situation it is said that the Canadians are just beginning to experience the troubles the United States has hadin subjugating the wild and roving tribes. OUR INDIAN a¥¥ans. At present our Indian aflairs are ia excellent order. There is but very little complaint from any quarter, and the only source of trouble now anticipated is from this invasion of British Indians. The force of invaders is said to be fifty lodges of British Indians and 100 lodges of half breeds, all well armed and wholly reckless as to the manner in which they pur- sue their game or provoke resistance from the peace- | | able Indians on our territory. GaLveEsTon, Texas, July 1, 1879, The News will to-morrow publish'a despatch from Austin which states that news has been received of a fight between State troops and a party of Indians at the nead of Couch River. One Indian was killed and several were wounced, The rest escaped. The troops lost several horses and pack mules, and are still pursuing the Indian: TERRIFIC WIND STORM. A STEAMER ON THE MISSOURI RIVER BADLY DAMAGED, (BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.] Bismanc, D. 'T., July 1, 1879. A terrific wind storm of haif an hour’s duration | swept over Bismarck and its vicinity last even- ing, uwnroofing houses, tearing up — trees and wrecking the steamer Montana, of the Coulson line, the largest and finest steamer on the Missouri River. The Montana was lying at Bismarck when the storm rose up from the prairie behind Fort Lincoln and moved up the Missouri with siartling rapidity. 1t broke every chain in the steamer and carried the cabin ashore. Pieces of the cabin were blown 500 yards. The damage done to the deck and cabin of the steamer amount to over $30,000, The Dakota, of the same line, lost half of her hurricane deck. These were new boats, the largest ever floated on the Missouri, Pieces of wreck were found a quarter of a mile from the river. The Montana was loading tor Fort Benton. The Dakota, which was advertised to leave this morning, had many passengers on board. ‘A WOMAN INJURED. A chambermaid on the Montana was found in the ruins, with a broken ai no one else hurt. The boats were not insured. The Dakota will repair while under way, The Montana will yo to St. Louis for repairs. Her log chains are broken and her hull out of shape. She broke her stay line and conght fire, which was soon extin- guished. OTHER DAMAGE. The steamer Helena, of the Benton line, just out, was not injured, ‘be steamer Macleod, of the Baker line, had her smokestacks car- ried away. There was slight damage in the city, several houses being blown over, the roof of the stage company’s barns was blown off and one man severely injured.

TWO MEN CHARGED WITH THE CRIME —THE WIFE OF ONE OF THEM MAKES AN AFFIDAVIT AGAINST HIM. (BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.) AxLantic Crry, N, J., July 1, 1879, Two men, named Thomas Welsh and Charles Her- man, were arrested here to-day charged on the oath of Mrs, Delia Herman, the wife of the latter, with having committed the murder of Mr. Alfred Martin, the real estate broker who was found dead in his of- fice in Philadelphia several months ago with a mortal wound on his head, | Mrs, Herman presented herselt at the City Hall about noon in a very excited state and asked the Chief of Police to direct her to a He accompanied her to the nearest one, where she dictated a telegram to Officer Good- hart; of the Buttonwood police station, Philadelphia, stating that Charles Herman, who committed the Martin murder, is in this town. HARASSED BY CONSCIENCE. She explained to the Chief of Police that she had an entire knowledge of the crime, and had become 80 conscience stricken that she could no longer with- hold it, She heard that her husband and anyother party to the murder were both here, so she leit Philadelphia and came down on Sunday to find them and have them brought to justice. She secured a position as servant im Mr, William H. Berry's cot- tage. On Monday night she met Herman on the street, when he bee: very angry with her for following him down here, and threatened to kill her if she informed on him, She determined to do so, however, despite his threats, as she could get no peace of mind unless she yvered him to the authorities. DETAILS OF THE CREME. ‘The Mayor gave her a secret hearing and took her affidavit, which was in effect that she and her hus- | band and child, at the time of the murder, oceupied rooms in the building where Martin’s office was situated. On the day of the crime Herman, Welsh and a Philadelphia street car Son aac Tae to- name she does not kubdw, were gether in one of her rooms. It was plain to her that they wanted to get rid of her, and she grew suspicious. They sent her out to get some beer, but she only went from the room , and remained a short time, and then removed her | shoes and noiselessly returned to an udjoining room, | On reaching this room she found ‘that. the wen had just returned from Martin’s office, and she heard her husband repeating how he held the chlorotormed sponge to the murdered man’s nose, and Welsh re- hearsed how he had dealt the fatal blow. TEN DOLLARS OF BLOOD MONEY. She says that afterward they came into the room where she was, and she saw that their hands were bloody. ‘They talked very freely about the crime in her presence and divided $10 of booty between the three. The next day they left the city, and sie | heard nothing more of them until she recently dis- covered that they were in this place. A CHARGE OF THEFT, Sho alzo charged them with committing a robbery on Mr. W. H. Berry’s cottage here in September of 1877, repeating particulars corresponding precisely with facts in the case not known outside of the family. THE ACCUSED MEN. Herman is about twenty-seven years ot age, has a light mustache and a sandy complexion, and is a carpenter by trade. He has been working here regularly for some weeks. Welsh is about twenty- three years of age, tall and sallow, with a smooth face, and is a painter by trade. He married a young girl by the name of Clara Denny about » month ago, oth men stoutly deny the charges, and that they are victims to Mrs. Herman's malice. Mayor Stokley has been telegraphed to, and the men are yet coniined here, MURDER BY A MOB. [BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.] Manterra, Ga., July 1, 1879. A despatch just received announces an atrocious double murder in Pickens county, 3 mountain nest of illicit distillers. There were two brothers named Poole, who, were cousins of the deputy marshal of the district, and had been suspected of being revenue informers. On Saturday night the house of: the elder was surrounded by a mob of armed men, who demanded their surrender, The two brothers armed themselves and a skirmish was opened. One of the brothers fell, literally riddled with bullets, and died in- stantly. The elder brother fought until he was shot down, He had emptied his pistol when he surren- dered, He was dying when the reporter lett the scene. The wife of the younger brother identified three of the assailants, but no arrests have been made. Two of the men whom she named came up voluntarily and claim an alibi. The killing creates great excitement in revenne circles, and decided steps will be taken to secure justice. The revenue authorities decline to call for the military, and claim that they can put down the trouble themselves, LIEUTENANT MCAULE 3 DEATH. [By TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD. Attanta, Ga., July 1, 1879, The inquiry into the cause of Lieutenant McCauley’s suicide shows that losses at the gambling table was the probable cause.

His death seems to have been alto- gether accideptal, and was brought about in the foliowing way:—A handcar manned by four men was going down town on the east side track—that which is used by north bound trains, ‘The last regular trip of passenyer traing had been made, but a number of uew cars were put on the road yesterday, aud an et was drawing some of them to the upper send of the voad, When the hand-ear had passed the Franklin street station the train of new cars was discovered approachingon the same track, There was no light ou the hand car, and to prevent a collision Shaddley volunteered to run ahead aud stop the train while his companions made their way back to the station and got a lantern, Jumping out on the track he crossed over to the other side and ran down to warn the engineer of danger, His movements were not seen from the engine of the employes train, which at that moment pushed out from the Franklin street station on its way down town, und Shaddley appears to have heard uothing but the noise of the train on the other track which he was signalling. Suddenly he was struck by the south bound engine, and the trunk of his body was thrown to the street below. His left leg remamed jammed between the guard rails, and his right foot. which had also been severed, tell with his body to the street. The engine was stopped and backed and men worked for some time in disengaging the dismembered leg, Officer Skidmore, of the Fifth precinct, found the right toot in the street, and the remains were carried on @ stretcher to the station house in Leonard street, Shaddely was married.
