The chancellor was better at the beginning of the weel, but au- thentic advices from Frederichsruhe report that since Wednesday he has suffered a re- currence of gout in a severe form. Dr. Scwhweinger is in attendance upon him, but 8t the instance of Count Herbert Bismarck, Dr. Bardlebem saw him on Thursday. The rumor that Emperor William secretly went to Fredericksruhe is entirely bascless, his majesty's every day movements being open. He was seen visiting the Empress Augusta on Wednesday. He dined with the Duke and Duchess of Saxe-Meininger on Thursday, and yesterday he drcve in tho Thiongarten, walked through the zoolozical gardens and after dinner visited Count er- bert Bismarck. Onicials here assert t] the condition of the chancellor is in no wise serious, although abstention from work for a time is n ary. Prior to this relapse Prince Bismarck had arranged to come to Berlin on the 12th inst. to confer with the emperor before the re- opening of the landtag and reichstag. ‘The question of making additional state provision for the imperial family cames up in the reichst some time in February. Apart from his ample income as king of Prussia the allow ance ofthe emperor from the imperial funds 18 only $750,000 yearly. It is reported that the chancellor will inform the reichstog that an additional $350,000 is requircd owing to tho expenditures involved in the increased duties of the head of the empire. The con census of opinion is that some such provision is necessary and that the suw wmentioned is reasonable. Early in February the imperial tour will be resumed, The programme has not yet been decided upon, but preparations are now being made indicate that the emperor will visit Alsace-Lorraine. Court Mar shal Licbenan has been to Strasberg to ar range for the reception there, The coming court season promises to be the dullest ever known, owing o the fuct that the poriod of mourning for the late emperor has not expired. There will be no court balls and the diplomutic corps will close their salons. The annual charity subscription ball ot the opera house will not be held and no sort of festal gathering will be allowed in oMicial or court circles, The emperor restriots fetes to the observance of the annual Ordens fesy on the 20th proximo, and the banquet of the Order of the Black Eagle on the 15th. His majesty has directed that no celebration bo held on his birthday, July 27.

The corner’s inauest is in progress, but no clew to the perpetrators has yet been ob- tained, Apparently the indignant citizens eould not wait for the law to take its course, fearing that there was a possibility of his escape from the punishment of the killing of Harry Woodbury. Just two weeks' ago the murder in question oceurred at vans, four miles below Greely, the details being of a most shocking charac ter. W.

Cuicaco, Dec. 23,—Auother sensation developed this morning in the sensational Landuuer insolvency case. An expert ac countaut testified that the bonds showed that members of the firm had assigned substanti- ally all their notes and book accounts and cyerything they owned, aside from the stock of goods Whick is in thé hands of the sheriff; that perjury had been committed in swearing to the amounts assigned, the aggregate being §0%,000 more than alleged, wnich made it tan tamount to @ general ussignment, which would give the county court jurisdiction, 1t is this jurisdiction which the firm has been fighting. “Shall we pledga ourselves, each according to his means, to ald this great en- terprise by purchasing new shares of Panama stock?” Agama triple afirmative tesuified to the unwavering confidence the grand Francais has inspired in the masses of the French people. Resolutions to the above effect wes ordingly adopted by an over- whelming majority. The assembly was blind- 1y, absolutely confident the situation would be saved somehow, but they neither knew nor cared to know exactly how or by whon fact they voted any man a bore who g temptea to enlighten them on the subject What they enjoyed best was a speaker like M. Martineau, wbo assured them that every- thing at the isthmus was) all right; that he had worked at Panama for two vears and knew what he was talking about; {that the excavations were getting along flnely, and the canal would be finished certainly in 1893, and at mostouly 350,000,000 feancs were stili needed, and anyone who said.to the contrary was outrageously misreprgsenting tue facts for some unworthy purpos® that DeLesseps was A great man, gnd so was his son; the committee in charge of the afair was com- posed of the most admirable and eficient gentlemen; France was a great country, and the sharcholders in the concern had every atthe slightest provogdtion, but it was u dif- #ull story when! anyone launched out into adverse eriticism. One scep tical gentleman intgerupted M. Martincau from the gallery by a bold insinuation that what he was saying was utter nonsense. Thou there was a scene. The entire crowd sprang to their foct and gl ordinary individual. ' Every one howled out his or her disapprobation in a manner more forcible than elegant, The general senti- ment was to turn out/the man who had dared to utter such a heresy. The president vounded away on hisbell for several minutes before order was restored. This little inc dent served as a summary lesson to any other would-be critic who had doubts of the excel lency and general solidity of the Panama en prise. The people prgsent scemed to say, we do not think wé are deceived, but even if we are .decciveds we prefer to remain as we are. Yet these Panama euthusiasts were far from being a d at this extra class which could afford to lose the money they had invested.
