Fery To Kill Him, An Unnocessary Slaughter of Chilian Indians, Fourteen Hundred Witnesses to be Called, GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS, ORDERED TO MURDER M. FERRY. Pants, November 16.—This afternoon while Prime Minister Ferry was in the Senate chamber a man 18 years of age went to the Minister of Public Instruc- tion and asked to see M. Ferry. The lat- tor's secretary informed the youth that Ferry was absent. The stranger then left but returned ten minutes later and forcéd his way into the reception room holding in his hand a revolver which he kept pointed as if ready to fire. An offi- cial seized him and after a strug- gle overpowed him. While being held he shouted ‘‘Vive La Republique Sociale! Vive La Commune!” The re- volver was fully leaded and thirty cart- ridges were found on the porson of the youth, who gave his name as Currie. He said he was born at Haguenau, in Alsace, was a baker by trade. Curric stated that the murder of the French munister had been agreed upon at a meeting of the secret society at Lille, -and he came to Paris to execute the mandate of the society. He regrotted that he had not been successful, and said as soon as lib- erated he would make another attempt which would be successful. Mr. Ferry did not hear of the affair until six o’clock. Currier is insane. A CRITICAL SITUATION. Paris, November 16.—A member of the Chamber of Deputies states that Ad- miral Courbet's position_in Tonquin_is critical, and Admiral Perone, Marine Minister, proposes to defend him by blockading Canton. But this would in- volve sending a formal notification to the maratime powers,and therefore a declara- tion of war against China, a measure from which the Chamber shrinks. THE DOMINION'S [PROSPERITY. Orrawa, November 16.—The bank statement for October for the Provinces of Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick shows total liabilities of $147,250,000, assets $231,000,000.

A COLLECTIVE ARBITRATION, ., Loxpon, November 17.—The times Paris dispatch says: A collective arbitra- tion of powers most interested must pre- vent war between France and China, Europe would be delighted to learn that they have accepted the arbitration of England, Russia and America, THE TRIAL OF 0’DONNELL. Loxpoxn, November 16,—It is believed that the prosecution inteénds to treat the case of U'Donnell as one of ordinary murder, and nothing of a political nature will be introduced unless rendered nec- essary by the mode of dofense. A GRAAT TRIAL VieNNa, November, 16.—A monster trial begims in Hungary shortly, the pris- oners being three persons accused of par- ticipating in the recent anti-Jewish riots, To prove the guilt of the prisoners, 1,400 witnesses will be called. UNNECESSARY SLAUGHTER, Panaya, November, 16,—Tho pacifi- cation of Peru is progressing slowly. The Peruvians now occupy Lima and Tglesias, continues to acquire popularity. A Chili- an column on the way to Ayuchuco was attacked by 4,000 Indians. The latter were almost unarmed, and the Chilians slaughtered 700 of their ignorant and drunken opponents, Caceries is blamed for the unnecessary slaughter, AMERICAN HOG PRODUCTS, LoxpoN, November, 10.—Inquiries come from America asking whether it was true as reported in trade circles there, that the French government had removed tho prohibition against American hog products, Neither newspapers nor news agencies can find authority for the state- ment that this has been done, and inqui- ries at Paris fail to confirm the report, UNPAID WORKMEN, New York, November, 16,—A Mon- treal dispatch says 500 out of 1000 men hired by the Canadian Pacific railroad at two dollars per day to work on the road North of Lake Superior, have arrived in that city absolutely destitute, and have entered 300 actions against the company for wagesand damages, EBringing in the Indians, SN Fraxcrsco, November 16,—Cien- eral Crook telegraphed headquarters to- day: “Captain Raflerty arrived at San Carlos with ninety Chiricahuas, The total number on the reservation is cighty-threo bucks, 340 women and children.

Pirrsnura, November 16.—The con- forence of glass manufacturers and em- ployes, which has been in progross hore for the past two days, adjourned this evening without arriving at any sottle- ment. Sub-committees, one of manu- facturers and one of workmen, wore ap- pointed, who will confer as soon as pos- sible and see if some arrangement cannot be reached whereby all present and fu- ture wages trouble can be settled with- out resorting to strikes. The conference committee then adjourned until Decem- bor 18, unless called together earlier by the sub.committees. The proceedings of the conference were watched with great interest by a number of importors agents, and the failure to agree was re- ceived by them with undisguised satisfac- tion. Thomas B. Atterbury, a prominent glass manufactuser, declared in an inter- terview to-night that he and many other iron and glass manufacturers have come to the conclusion that a protective tariff does not protect, amd that a revival in the iron and glass trade cannot be hop- ed for unti! all tariff restrictions are re- moved. Iron manufacturers in this vicinity are greatly disappointed at the condition of trade. The expectation was that the ear would close with a brisk business, {mh now, in addition to low prices, which have ruled for the last eighteen months, orders are falling off. The result is that only one or two mills in the city are run- ning full in any departments, and there are rumors that several works will be shortly suspended entirely. A member of the firm of Jones & Laughlin said to- day that there was absolutely no money in the business, and he did not see how some mills were kept out of the sheriff’s hands. e = L THE STOCK MEN.

The convention jcomended the action of the secretary of the treasury in en- forcing quarantine against all infected cattle, and decided to petition congress to confer authorlty on the treasury de- partment by which quarantine could be extended so as to cover sheep, swine and goats. The convention decided to ap- point a committee of one from each of the states which is to memorialize Congressand show the OMAHA, NEB. SATURDAY loss and danger to America by reason of foreign restrictions against ~American meat productions, and suggest such legis- lation as may tend to remove the preju- dice, The convention is stated to have been the most representative one of stock men ever held in this country. o ——— Fire Record, Bosrox, Nov, 16.—The Uoston and providence railroad repair shops took fire this morning and one half of the storo house and machine shops and boiler house were almost wholly destroyed, The boiler house contained boilors and en- gines which furnished power for all other shops.

Accidents on the Rail and Wrecks on the Lakes, A Sad Blunder With Fearful Results, Trains Ditchod and in Collision on Several Roads, RAILROAD MATTERS, THE UNION PACIFIC STATEMENT, Bostox, Novembor 16,—The Septom- ber statement of the Union Pacific Rail- road company shows gross earnings for the month of §2,094,076, a decrease from the corresponding month of last year of $176,230; expenses $1,635,188, an in- crease of §274,606; surplus earnings 81,468,888, a docrease of $4560,8356. The decrease in earnings is due primarily to the extension of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy to Denver, and also to the de- creaso in Colorado business. The gross earnings for October show a decrease of §30,000. According to approximate figures the earnings for the first week in November show an increase of more than $70,000 over the samo week of last year. PROSPECT OF A LIVELY WAR. Crrea November 16.—Commis- sioner Midgely to-day received notico of the withdrawal of the Chicago, Milwau- kee & St. Paul company from the Iowa Trunk Line association, The only ex- planation offered is that they are not satisfied with the arrangement. They found no fault with the division of profits made and make no complaint against individual members of the asso- ciation, but withdraw from proference. Outsiders say this action will preciptate a rate war and inside of sixty days things will be lively between Chicago and Council Bluffs. The association 18 com- posed of five lines, the 0., B. & Q., C., L. &P, C. & N. W, W. & St L, and St. Paul company. =~ The iatter was admitted a year ago last month and since September has had sixty per cent as its share. The association rules require thirty days notice of withdrawal and serious cutting is thus postponed that length of time. It is thought that when the St. Paul withdraws such a large pro- portion of pool business the other roads will at ence declare a wir to get a share in the spoils.

Zelda Neguin is with the Abbott Opera company this season, as overybody kunows. Ho far the company has spent much of its time in the northwest, draw- ing big houses and receiving plenty of newspaper praise. On the night of Sep- tember 29 it was in Omaha, That night Mrs, Seguin dreamed that she was in a railroad car near Utica, N, Y. She knew it was that localtiy, having passed over it often, As the train flew along she thought she saw the different NO. 131. guin seemed to rise in that mysterious way in which we are all extricated from dilemmas in dreams, until she could look down upon_the the wreek from the air above it. She saw the two engines look- ed in each others embrace, twisted,telch- ing, groaning as though in mortal agony; saw also the cars which were thrown from tho track, damaged and crippled like groat animals; and withal saw in one of them the friend who had sat beside her but a moment before. She was now lying helpless in the dreadful mass of de- bris, her face death-like and her form motionless. There the dream stopped. She told it the next morning, as it was still fresh in her mind on waking up, but did not, of course, think that it had any significance. What was her surprise wit{in throo days to read. of the accident which ocourred on the 1st of October, on the West Shore road; and later to learn that the same yonng friend who had sat beside her in the dream had rnnllg been aboard the wrecked train and been injured. Lot the people who explain such things by material reason- ing, or those who waive them aside with a aneor and a smile, tell, if they can, why Zelda Seguin, sleeping more than a thousand miles west of%tiw, should so accurately dream out an accident three days beforo it occurred, and associate a friend with it whom she believed to be safo in her home in one of the interior towns of Pennsylvania. She had retired after an evening of more than usual honor. The applause had been gener- ous to embarrassmont. Nothing had oceurred to call up any thoughts of peril or accident. Yot in_ her dream she olt the shock and saw the ruins of the wreck. Once before ZeldaSeguin had a remark- able dream in regard to a public event which soon after happened. Three nights before Jim Fisk was shot she dreamed she was walking up Broadway and the entire street was Srnpped in mourning.
