PARIS, March 2.—(New York World Ca- Blegram—Speclal Telegram.)—For the past three months there have been persistent sumors of important diplomatic work being done in Italy by French and Russian agents. It was known that special envoys from Parls and St. Petersburg had been repeat edly sent to Rome to confer joiutly with the ambassadors of both countries, and even directly with King Victor Emanuel, but every effort to ascertain the purport of the mysterious transactions have heretofore falled. Ialy is about to withdraw from the Ger- man-Austrian alliance to form with France and Russia a new triple alllance. Sald the World correspondent’s informant: “Emperor Willlam and Emperor Francls Joseph u few days ago demanded an ex- planation from Italy, and a very clear one has just been forwarded from Rome. There i8 to bo & new combiition, embracing Italy, France and Russia, and tne detalls have already been nearly completed. The new king of Italy has always regarded Crispl's policy as injurious to Italy's wel- fare. King Humbert himself had misgiv- ings concerning the wisdom of allowlng Italy to be towed behind Prussia and Aus- tria, to be used only in an emergency, but Crispl had uncanny influence over the mur- dered king, who lacked the energy to take the initiative and was always ready to seek shelter in a constitutional monarch’s irre- sponsibility. Drends Republican Ideas, “Besides, Humbert dreaded nothing like spreading republican Ideas in his realm, which he ascribed to the great propagandic forco of the friendship between the Italian and the French people. He therefore al lowed Crispl and his disciples to pursue their policy of estrangement from France and trying by every means fo convince the Italtans that their nation would profit by ap alliance with the destinies of the man empire, shuped by Blsmerck. The re- sults have proved disastrous. economically and politically, to Italy, which has been sacrificed at every turn, until her pros- | perity has been absolutely destroyed and her political prestige reduced to naught, “When Victor Emanuel ascended to the throne he lost no time In making over His personal sympathies nd judgment demanded, while the public sentiment of the peninsula clamored, for a speedy bringing together of the two Latin nations R n 8 fanten ¢ tons, “Russia was immediately consulted, and she gave assent under conditions which are now being discussed. The recent demon- strations of friendliness between England and Germany have hastened the negotla- tions wonderfully. France and Russia feel that the Austro-Huugarian empire s threatened with disruption soon, and that 1t Italy were detached from Germany even an Anglo-German combination could easily be checkmated. “The recent removal by France of cer- tain prohibitive dutles against Italian prod- ucts is significant in this connection, as is 80 the intense newspaper campaign, evi- dently subsidized by the government, just started across the Alps, almed to undo the previous work on the public mind by show- ing how closely related the two races are and how similar are their political and com- mercial interests, and recalling the part taken by French armies in effecting Itailan unification. “The coming visit of the Itallan naval squadron to French waters, where a num- ber of Russian men-of-war will also be present, will serve as a pretext for great triendly demonstrations, and an ofciul proclamation of the new alliance will prob- ably be made then.” SUCCESS OF IRISH PARTY John E.

PARISIAN TRUST ON ART Try to Block rogress of Struggling Genlunes, tablished Painters the (Copyright, 1901, by Press Publishing Co.) PARIS, March 2—(New York World Ca- blegram—Special Telogram.)—A quarrel be- tween J. W. Alexander, now in New York, and his brethren In the Paris Soclety of American Painters, has started a tumul- tuous discugsion not only among Ameri- cans, but all over Paris. Despite the de- ulals of such men as W. T. Dannat, B. L Weeks and J. L. Stewart, Alexander’s resig- nation s demanded because he objected to the soclety’s tactics in deliberately block- ing the way of younger artists. It 13 be- lieved by people conversant with the mat- ter that Mr. Alexander will make interest- ing revelations when he decides to speak. The revolt against the group of men known the Parls Society of Amerlcan Painters hag been brewing for two years. The society comprises about a dozen mem- bers. All except one or two elderly and well-established painters are fully deter- mined to keep down threatening compes tition. Many members of the American Art assoclation, a rival and much more nu- merous organization, are especially bitter against what they call the “trust.” Mon on Orders. It appears that the soclety will not ac- cept new members, but has gradually as- sumed the function of representing Ameri- can art in Paris, monopolizing public and private orders and advising and deciding what painters shall be allowed exhibition space on such occasions as the recent Paris exposition and tle forthcoming Panameri- can exposition in Buffalo. Its members are wealthy and by constant soclal entertain- ing and private views have succeeded in impressing the French official world with the conviction that they alone are the chiefs of Amerfcan artists, thereby secur- ing all decorations, salon medals and re- munerative orders, Mr. Alexander s counts many friends among the set. Several times he has denounced the narrow policy of his fellow members, and this has finally precipitated a clash Some of the officers of the American Art assoctation, whose president is Rodman Wanamaker, deny that there is friction between the two bodies, but most of the members side with Alexander and propose to elect him a member by acclamatlon at a speclal meeting as soon as he returns as a protest against the affront infiicted upon him LOS ANGELES GIRL IN AIR Californin Dy Risks Her Neck with Aeronaut Who Fell Thrice, liberal-minded and Pretty (Copyright, 1901, by Press PARIS, March 2—(New York World Ca- blegram—Special Telegram.)—Santos Du- mont, the Parls aeronaut who has fallen trom the clouds thrice while navigating the air, took up & party of American women from Mentone Thursday.

Retires test Uncoum.me, BERLIN, March 2—The latest phase of the China trouble, the projected commerclal treaties, including the extraordinary tone of the Russian inspired press on the subject, the Russo-American tariff dispute and the Anglo-German relations, held public atten- tion this week. A conslderable portion of the German press strongly disapproves of Germany's protesting against the Russian annexation t Manchuria, claiming that Germany has no interests there and that she is pledged to Russia not (o interfere with anything Russla chooses to do. The jingoes and agrarians are outspoken in this respect. The Deutsche Tages Zeitung today says that Count von Buelow's proceeding on the sub- ject 18 illogleal and stupld and amounts to hauling chesinuts out of the fire for Great Britain, The more sober portion of the press de- plores this new trouble, which creates dip- lomatic antagonisms likely to blot the whole entente of the powers. The Natlonal Zeitung believes this new- st phase of the Chiua situation to be the most dangerous for the peace of the world that has come about since the beginning of the Chinese troubles. The Vorwaerts today policy since the Chino-Jupanese war and declares it to be one unbroken chain of blunders, adding “If the triumvirate of Great Britain, Ger- many and Japan had stood together from the first it would have been able to check Russia’s land-grabbing insolence, but now it is 100 late, Russia has what she wanted and is sure of China's ratification. Protests from the other powers are now useless. DeWitte's Threat Quiets The, Agitation over the new tariff and the new commercial treaties is as lively as ever the agrarlan demands, after growing with the apparent indifference of Count von Buelow, seem now to have become more modent since the Russian papers, at the jn- stigation of M. DeWitte, minister of finance, came out with the series of artl- Cles agalnst Germany's proposed large in- crease of agricultural duties and threaten- 1ng severe reprisals against the importation of German industrial products. Dueling Vigorously Arraigned. The largest portion of this week's Reichstag sittiog was taken up by a debate on dueling, in which the centrist orators were especlally forcible In their arguments. They did not even hesitate to attack the emperor for encouraging dueling by regu- larly pardoning duelists after a short and mild confinement. The Vorwaerts today publishes another lst of such recent perdons. General von Gossler, the war minister, weakly and un- skilfully defended dueling as a custom, but was not able to disprove the powerfnl arralgnment of facts and reasons by the centrists. The unauthentic news published in the German papers to the effect that Vnited States Ambassador White will retire has brought forth strong disapproval from the American residents in different parts of Germany. Petitions are spoken of, asking President McKinley to retain Mr. White. It fs pointed out that Mr. White is per- sona grattissima with the court and in sclentific elrcles. DESPITE THE KING'S FROWN Marquis of Headfort Goes On Arrang- ing to Marry Rowse Buote, a Soubrette, (Copyright, 191, by Press Publishing Co.) LONDON, March w York World Cablegram ram.)—The mar- quis of Headfort's impending marriage to Rose Boote, a soubrette playing at the Galety theater, Is now formally anuounced Owing to the active, determined opposition of the marquis’ mother, “the course of true love” in this case has been remarkably stormy. The marquis got a license for mar- riage at Marylebone church last week, but his mother obtained possession of the docu-~ ment, thus temporarily balking her son's plans. Theu the king tried, though in vain, to break off the match. When Headfort wrote to his commanding officer for leave to re- sign his commission as leutenant in the First Ll Guards, he was referred to the King, at the latter's suggestion. Headfort then wrote to the king, adding as a post- seript: “The lady’s name is Boote.” This fiippancy angered his majesty, who asked Lord Roberts to send Headfort to South Africa, and had him confined in bar- racks for several days. Headfort declded | that be would go to war, but would marry Rosie first. She is a Dublin girl and a Catholic, the daughter of the owner of a small shoe store. She udopted the stage name of Boote In delicate allusion to the family business. The engagement was announced at a sup- per glven by Headfort to Rose's companions and his own comrades a¢ the Savoy hotel, when, in the presence of the company, he placed around her neck a coral and diamond necklace costing $3,500.

I, March 2.—A provincial government has been established in the provinces of Brigadier General Grant's district. General Grant, speaking to the repre- sentative of the Associated Press, sald he could not recommend clvil gRovernment in the province of Bulacan or Bataan. The province of Pampanga, however, as recom- mended by General MacArthur, be con- sidered ripe for civil rule. In General Grant's opinion no civil government ought to bo organized until the Insurgents were ecither captured or conquered, however peaceful they might appear. Conditions were developing with such un xpected rapidity that it was well to or- ganize civil governments in some provinces as an experiment and General Grant be- lieved that some of these would be suc- cessful, especially since, unlike the sys- tem of municipal government, the provin- | elal system places little real authority or selt-government In the people themselves, the actual control remaining with the American Philippine commission. Captai « [dmn Chonen, Mr. Worcester announced the decision of the commission to appoint an American officer to be civil governor of Bataan prov- i during the transition and Captaln H. Goldman of the Thirty-second United States Volunteer infantry has been thus appointed. All but one of the natiy delegations favored the appointment of Captain Goldman and applauded it. Cap- Goldman responded with a stirring address. Lieutenant Love of the Thirty- second infantry has been appointed treas- urer of the province and Sergeant Major Vance of the Forty-first United States Vol- unteer infantry has been appointed su- pervisor and secretary to Lieutenant Love. The capital of the province has been fixed at Balanga. RELEASED TO SAVE HIS LIFE Carman, Alding Filipino: Kept Too ¥ in Confinemen MANILA, March 2.—By direction of Ma- jor General MacArthur, D. M. Carman, an American contractor, who was taken into custody February 6, charged with alding the Filipino insurgents, has been released on $10,000 cash bail. Major Kulp, medical officer, certified that Carman was a sick man and that further confinement was apt his death. Brigadier General G. W. Davis, provost marshal of Manila, says that the case had been very carefully con- sidered before the release was ordered, as it established the precedent in the Philippines of permitting persons charged with alding and abetting the insurrection to be at large. Carman is under surveillance in Manila. Ho is allowed no privileges save those al- lowed by civil law elsewhere. Carman’s release on bail Is much dis- cussed. The prosecution is confident of proving Carman's guilt it the case comes to trial.

BLANGA, Province of Bataan, Luzon, March 2.—Notwithstanding the cordial re- ception, it was the unanimous testimony of officers of the Thirty-second Infantry that the people of Bataan are backward, un- trustworthy and not ready for civil govern- ment. It is also supposed that they are contributing to the insurgents adjacent in the mountains. General Grant, however, is confident that they will be pacified. Ho says that scouts will shortly disperse the Bataan rebels. Today's session of the com- wission indicated that the Tagals of Bataan |are not equal to those of Bulacan in in- tellect, otherwise they are a strong race.

The vibra- tion difficulty dealt them a serlous blow and Parliament is not expected to grant any franchises for them this session. The re- sult of the inquiry into the damage donme to overhead houses by the vibration of the central London tube condemns all future similar undertakings to heavy lability for compensation to householders. Upon the duke of Manchester's arrival here he will find his creditors as inexor- able as was the Boston dog fancler.

Among the special supplies recently dis- patched to General Kitchener in South Africa was a large quantity of halrwash prepared to prevent him from getting bald. The South African climate is fatal to hair. which first fades and then falls out. It is easy to pick out returned warriors by their thin and colorless locks. General Kitch- er is almost bald. The duke of Teck is completely so, and the most accomplished hair speclalists have been employed ever since the duke of Marlborough's return, trylng to counteract the depilatory effects of the climate.
