THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, UNDAY, JULY 28, 1895. I R I o R R D B e el D el SR L B e DR R s e T IN VICTORIA'S REALM. Close of the Struggle of the English Elec- - tions. MONEY DID NOT COUNT. Overwhelming Defeat of the Candidates Who WentForth With a Sack. RYDER HAGGARD VERY SORE. Salisbury and His Men Have Enough Majority to Rule With Ease. [Copyrighted, 1895, by the New York Times.] LONDON, Exa., July 27.—To-night’s re- sults practically close the gate. They are quite in keeping with the other figures from all parts, which have made the week wness, owner of Tit-Bits and the t ster Gazette, a popular man, who spent his money like water for the party in a district where he had a majority of es three years ago; but then the N\ ket, and the Anti-Gam- ed local opinion, McCalmont, owner of Isinglas, could en Gladstone himself under such have be: conditions. Of 93 net reactionary gains the Mid- sh 18, London 15, Lancashire nd and ti:e west of England 9 h, East Anglia 8, Yorkshire 7, South Wales and the North of England 6 each and the South of England only 1, because everything else was Tory there before. - So in about a fair proportion to the popula- tion every non-Celtic section furnishes im- partially its quota to the most terrible de- feat any English party has bad since the days of the Stuarts. When Lord Salisbury holds his first Cabinet meeting next Tuesday he will meet his colleagnes with something like 155 votes of a majority at his back. His own Tories have just 2 bare majority of the entire House, so that he could donoth- ing without his Liberal-Unionist allies. It is, just now, however, a favorite speculation with the Conservatives that Chamberlain’s versonal following among these latter is, at the utmost, forty strong, and that if he were expelled, and even if he took all these with him into the opposition, Salisbury and Devonshire would still control a suffi- ciently powerful majority of seventy-five, and could laugh at Birmingham for six long years., Mathematically this doubtless approximates the truth, but Chamberlain stands for something much more import- ant than figures, as wounld quickly enough be shown to anybody who tried to cheat him out of his share of this extraordinary victory. Conceivably the attempt may be made in time; indeed, the situation would be Lopelessly uninteresting were there no chances of jealousies and ruptures inside the vast, inert, reactionary majority to discuss, but, at all events, they will keep until next year. The fact that while Liberalism in Scot- land, in Wales, in town and country alike, has been literally hacked to pieces, Ireland returns more Nationalists than before, stands out in such glaring relief that even the Tory papers are forced to recognize its significance. The changes that have been made among the various factions of home- rulers in the matter of seats are admitted not to affect the question of Ireland’s gen- eral attitude toward the Union. These changes have all been effected on a very small margin of transferred votes, and can all be accounted for by general consent. Kilkenny was given to the Parnelites, as has been said, by the gross ignorance and incapacity of Sheehy, secretary of McCar- thy’s organization, in making out papers so imperfect that they had to be invali- dated. East Clare was given up by the Parnellites, and they only held it through McCarthy’s organization providing them with au opponent in P. J. McHugh, who was weaker than anything that could be imagined possible. On the other hand this remarkable or- ganization did not propose to fight Ma- guire in West Clare at all. They put up no official candidate and sent not a penny into the district. The local Nationalists put up Major James, a friend of the Healys, on their own account, and swept Rochefort, Maguire and the Parnellites out of sight. Even more striking an example occurred in North Mayo of the popular contempt for the independence of these parliamentary gentlemen who started out torun Ireland in their own way. They had a single convention for all the four districts of Mayo, and by the other votes of the other three, refused to ailow the North to renmominate its old member, Crilly, because he is a Healyite, and put up Roche instead. The delegates’ from North Mayo repudiated Roche and marched out in a body, but Roche was re- ported as nominated in the party papers and received £275 of the party money for the initial expense of his contest. On nomination day Roche turned up in Ballina with this money, whkich had to be lodged with the Sheriff. What happened has no varallel in election bhistory. He and a junketing party of Parliamentary friznds with him were unable to get a sin- gle householder in the whole constituency to sign his nomination paper. He had to return amid the jeers of the crowd, and Crilly was re-elected by practically the same majority as before. These things are unexpectedly reassuring, as showing that the Irish people remain solid despite the phenomenal unfitness of their pro- fessed leaders. They also show that I was right long ago wien I said that the honest Nationalists in Irelana did not need these big sums of money from the outside, which only debased Irish politics. For the first time the new Parliament will assemble on St. George's day, August 18. The question who will then be elected Bpeaker is still open, but opinion is now veering around to the idea that Balfour’s policy will be repudiated, and that Gully will be reinstated. The swearing of mem- bers will consume several days, and the problem of seating over 400 Unionists on a side of the chamber containing less than 400 seats all told will get its solution in some mysterious sort. The Queen’s speech will mention nothing, it is understood, except the supply, and as soon as this is voted the session for this year will be over. The debate on the supply will, however, furnish some oppor- tunities for interrogating the Ministers as to their policy. The speeches of the Min- lands fu isters already foreshadow, however, the outlines of a new Irish policy. There are to be country councils, also some central machinery to relieve Ireland of the neces- sity of coming to England for her lesser local legislation. For the moment there is nothing new ir the international outlook, save that it is a shade blacker and more menacing than a week ago. The text of the Franco-Chinese treaty turns out to be worse than the Eng- lish expected, and its evasions of what was agreed upon in the settlament of the Siamese troubles are so direct and im- portant that it is taken for granted that Salisbury will certainly refuse the British sanction. There are persistent reports in Paris that the Egyptian crisis is to be forced forward at once by the joint action of Russia and France, while at Vienna they profess to be in hourly anticipation of tidings of a coup d’etat in Bulgaria and of a general eruption in the Balkans. Whole columns of telegraphic corre- spondence daily elaborate these and simi- lar complications in the London press. They make sure, at least, that whether the trouble arises first in Europe, Africa or Asia, some one will be ableto say: *‘ I told you so.” The foreigners who have attended the previous sessions of the International Geo- graphical Congress are already expressing regret that they did not know before what an ideal place London was for such a gath- ering. In no other capital of Europe at the five previous meetings had a tithe of the trouble to entertain them been taken which is bestowed here. The new Impe- rial Institute offers unexampled facilities and attractions as a meeting place, and the list of fetes, receptions and special enter- tainments, to be led off by George Curzon and his young wife,'at their bigtown house next Monday, is nothing short of bewild- erinz to Continental experience. At the formal opening iast night the most notable feature was the oratorical ability displayed by the Duke of York. He had a huge room to speak in, but he filled every part of it with his musical voice, and surprised all by the excellence of what he said, as well. The principal interest of the sessions is expected to be in Monday's debate on Arctic exploration, when a paper by Gen- eral A. W. Greely will be read, among others, and in Wednesday’s discussion of the African problems. It is not known yet what success will attend Delegate Rockhill’s effort to secure the meeting of 1898 for Washington. Perhaps there may be some geographer present who has known something about this Island of Trinidad, which the British have grieved the Brazilians so deeply by seizing. The most profound, conceivable ignorance reigns here on the entire subject. 0ld records of voyages have been ran- sacked for brief comments of passing voy- agers, but no mention has yet been made, either by the press here or in the dis- patches from the other side, of Prince James I, who was supposed to have ac- quired sovereign rights over the islet, nor has there been the slightest discussion in the English papers as to why the island was taken, much less as to the rights and wrongs of the question. The project of an international postage stamp, which has been taiked about for some years, is to be brought forward for the consideration of the Postal Union by the French Minister of Commerce, his proposition being to establish a manu- factory and clearing-house for such stamps at Berne and thence to have them appor- tioned among the several States on the basis of population. Heretofore the ob- jection that countries with depreciated currencies or units of value fractionally under 5 cents would profit at the expense of other nations has been accepted as un- answerable, and how the French get over it is unexplained. Only at this belated date in the summer comes the first report of cholera in Europe this year. An outbreak of a rather malig- nant type in Volhynia, which is on the Russian frontier district most in commu- nication with Austria, affords a ground of expectation that it will work westward into the latter empire, but the prospect seems to disturb nobody., Things have indeed changed greatly since a dozen years ago, when the appearance of a single case anywhere plunged Europe into doleful ap- prehension. British military circlesare greatly stirred up by the controversy which has arisen over Shand’s biography of the late Gen- eral Sir Edward Hamley. Colonel Mau- rice, in two articles in the United Service Magazine, has attacked it mercilessly in crushing detail, so that now only a small minority, who enjoy abuse of Wolseley at any price, stand up for the book. The Chronicle to-day says that senior serving officers agree with one consent that the work is a complete misrepresenta- tion of facts. In other quartersitis hinted that the publication of the work is con- nected with a determined cabal against Wolseley as the possible successor to the Duke of Cambridge. It is certain now that the old Duke must go, and the Times unfeelingly warns him that his whimper- ing over the matter can only lower his per- sonal dignity, but some Tory papers, notably the Standard, are emboldened by the huge party majority in Parliament to clamor for the Duke of Connaught in his place. This would be very unpopular in the army and in the country at large, and the suspicion that Wolseley isbeing black- ened as a part of the game to keep the post in royal hands would create more bitter- ness than either the crown or Lord Salis- bury can afford to brave. The long-discussed Carlyle Museum, finally opened to the public, does not greatly appeal to the local imagination. Possibly enough American pilgrims will pay the shilling admission to keep the house open, but nobody believes in a rush, for Scotland and London are flatly indiffer- ent. The rooms, despite the gathering of a considerable number of personal relics, books, furniture and pictures, produce a gloomily empty effect, most depressing to one’s spirit. Moreover, as candid papers admit, the present generation has received far too repellant a conception of Carlyle's individuality from Froude to take a step out of their way and see where he lived, much less to pay money and go inside. Lady Frances Rose Gunning, whose ar- rest on a charge of forgery receives a good deal of space in the papers to-day, is the stepmother of the present baronet of that,| name and belongs to the Spencers, being a cousin of Lord Churchill and remotely re- lated to Earl Spencer and the Duke of Marlborough. Her marriage in 1879 to a widower of 82 years attracted comment at the time, and when he died, six years after, his family would have nothing to do with her. She has been very poor ever since, trying to support herself by secretarial work and the like. I know friends of hers who were al- ways trying to find jobs for her, but some- how she neyer kept them. The specific forgeries alleged are of her father's name, he being a country clergy- man in his eighty-sixth year, and these might be explained or hushed up, but it is said that there are other charges as well. The story of her struggle to live like a noblewoman on the income of a'char- woman, filled as it is with humiliations, bitter snubs and often with actual priva- tion, could be probably matched by scores / of other elderly women whose names are recorded in the peerage. The only wonder is that more of them do not come to a climax in the Police Court. There is a notable opportunity for adeed of non-partisan seryice to Ireland just now which would cost very little and would be of more use than all the huge sums con- tributed since Parnell died put together. The famous Champion potato, after being for nearly twenty years the mainstay of the island, has run down in qualiiy till its abandonment has become a necessity. It lusted much longer than any previous variety but finally lost power to resist dis- ease, and fecundity as well, and as Scotland also is giving it up fresh seed supplies from that source are shut off. If some rich Irish-American wounld institute experi- ments with the new varieties and find the one best adapted to the soil and climate of Ireland, it would be a philanthropie work of the first magnitude which would also pay its own expenses immediately. Never before has there been an electoral campaign so devoid of humor as that now closing. Ryder Haggard’s tempestuous boo-hooing about the way that the rustics chided him and his swell turnout in Nor- folk lanes might have been funay if it had not been angering to see a grown man so little able to take a beating with decent grace. Some of the parsons have been amusing in a way, notably one who issued a circular that Lord Rosebery’s influence was a direct sign that God disapproved of the Welsh church disestablishment; but with them, too, people were too annoyed to laugh. Glum Fifeshire furnishes the nearest approach to a good joke. The Tory candidate on the last day placarded the walls with ‘“Vote for Wilson and save the church.” Within an hour the Radicals had rival posters everywhere, “Vote for Ferguson and let the church save us.” HaroLp FREDERIC. JINGOISM OF THE PRESS. Fiery Articles Urging England to Ignore the Pretensions and Strength of France. {Special United Press Cable.] LONDON, ExG., Juiy 27.—Since a large Conservative majority in the House of Commons is soon to be assured there is a resurgency of jingoism in the press and from the platiorm. This condition of affairs heralds a stormy time if Prime Min- ister Salisbury should seek to satisfy the aspirations of his followers. The foreign papers are all alert to the situation. The French papers are assiduously advocating the use of Franco-Russian alliance to drive Great Britain out of Egyptand to meet her intrigues with the Porte. The Italian papers claim that a change of Government here will result in a revival of the Salis- bury-Crispi entente, while the Bertin and Vienna journals hail the restoration of a conservative policy, declaring that it is al- most tantamount to the incorporation of Great Britain into the triple alliance. The Globe of this city to-day strikes a keynote advocating the boldest attack by Great Britain on France at every point where their interests may come in col- lision. France, the paper says, must be made to understand that there is no hope of the evacuation of Egypt until Great Britain deems the time fitting. It adds that the ridiculous claims of France to an extension of her influence in the Soudan must be nlet by a British advance from Uganda and from Egypt simultaneously. The Mahdi should be suppressed by a campaign from Kgypt, and Great Britain should hold sway from the Upper Nile to Alexandria. In Siam the French claims to the eastern bank of the Mekong River must not be allowed. Siam, it declares, is ripe for a British protectorate. Continu- ing, it says that Russia cannot be per- mitted to acquire Port Lazaroff; anyhow, if she does acquire that place, Great Britain must receive a quid proquo. These musts and must-nots fairly represent the ideas entertained by the Conservatives, and it will be seen that should the Government make an attempt to carry them to their logical conclusion there will be stormy times ahead, diplomatically, if not other- wise. The Pall Mall Gazette, dealing with the subject of the Franco-Chinese treaty, ac- cuses France of breach of faith in ob- taining from China territory that is in- cluded in the Anglo-French buffer-state agreement of 1893, which, the paper de- clares, must be abandoned, and estab- blishing a fortified post therein. It is still further intolerable that France still occupies Chantabun, thereby defying her promise to evacuate that place when the France-Siamese treaty should be carried out. The arrogant tone of these articles ignor- ing the French pretensions and France's military and naval strength will most as- suredly cause an outburst of Chauvinism that will render the maintenance of peace impossible, unless the Government shall withstand the demands of the parties making them. The Statist, commenting on the uneasy feeling in regard to European politics, says that it has led to larger sales of consols, which, during the second week of July were quoted at 108 with dividends, arejthis week as low as 106%, and all foreign stocks are heavy. Lord Balisbury has promptly sent a pro- test to Peking and Pans against China ceding or granting any territory that was not held by China. ‘With 410 Unionists claiming seats on the Government side of the House of Com- mons, while the benches will barely ac- commodate 300, the long-pending question of enlarging the House becomes acute. Members of the American Congress, while viewing the interior, have often expressed to the representative of The United Rress their amazement at the limited accommo- dations for the members. The chamber was built at a time when such a thing asa full house was unknown, and when Par- liament tvas well nigh ignored by the press and people. Bince becoming the popular chamber, the area devoted to its deliberations has been the scene of many fights for seats. The Unionists in the next Parliament will not sit with the Opposi- tion, and the latter will resent their presence; but until the interior is en- larged it will be impossible to avoid mix- ing up the parties. Some lively episodes between members are meanwhile inev- itable. Newspaper men in the new Parliament are féw. Theoverthrow of newspaper pro- prietors in this has been phenomenal. ‘With the Duke of Norfolk as Postmaster- General, he is not likely to be influexced by newspapers, but the prospect is height- ened of a committee of inquiry being insti- tuted to regulate the press telegraph charges, whi¢h now cause a yearly loss to the exchequer of £300,000. The present rates were established as a corrupt subsidy to the newspaper owners, given as a price of their support at the time to the bill transferring telegraphs from the private companies to the Government. There is every chance that the Conservatives will no longer tolerate the exciting condition of affairs, and an advance in press rates sufficient to put the service on a paying basis may shortly be looked for.

PARASITES ON THEPARTY They Are Declared to Be Re- sponsible for the Pro- gramme. HERR BEBEL HAS THE LEAD. Other Serlous Mattersin the Father- land Include Cholera and War Clouds. BERLIN, Geryaxy, July 27.—The rank and file of the Socialists, now having thor- oughly studied the programme to be dis- cussed by the Socialist congress, which will be convened at Breslau on October 8, are generally so displeased by its pro- visions that they are demanding a re- vision of the Agenda with the greater part of the agrarian proposals eliminated. An idea of the degree of displeasure felt among Socialists in consequence of the moderation exhibited by the framers of the programme, an ouiline of which was given in these dispatches last week, may be gathered from an expression of opinion contained in an article on the subject in the Social - Demokrat, edited by Herr Schippel, a Socialist member of the Reichstag. The Demokrat denounces the agrarian scheme violentiy and declares that it originated with parasites upon the Social- 15t organization, and the several other Socialist organs, with the exception of the Vorwaerts, concur with Herr Schippel, who, when the congress meets in October, will, without doubt, find a majority behind him when he opposes the present scheme. Herr Bebel maintains that the pro- gramme is the only logical one that can be carried out in the present state of affairs. and declares that the allegations that it was inspired by Herr Vollmar or any oth- ers of the moderate wing of the Socialist party are utterly unfounded. Indeed, Herr Bebel asserts, Vollmar was not a member of the committee that drew up the programme, and, furthermore, be was not even consulted in regard to it. Bebel warmly defends the new departure from the long cherished Socialist ideals on the ground that the plans Jaid down in the programme have already been partially successful wherever they have been ap- plied. Helen Howard, the Socialist writer, has an article in the Vorwaerts entitled “The Final Goal,” in which she treats of the whole matter in a vein similar to that fol- lowed by Bebel. “German socialism, which is now prac- tical,” she says, “has been too long ab- sorbed in ideals and works of the present, In order that certain objects may be real- ized, and knowing that if they are attained they will relieve if they cannot cure the existing evils, the party cannot possibly leave out agrarian questions which affect a vast number of the populace, who, once learning the value of socialism, will become the most potent force in securing final victory.” The organs of the Freisinnige party are fully in sympathy with Herr Bebel's section of the Socialists, and express the hope that discord will not be permitted to weaken that party. The Conservative and National Liberal newspapers, on the other hand, welcome the prospect of a schism in the Socialist party, which will leave the moderates greatly in the minority, while at the same time committing the bulk of the Socialists to the most extreme policy, with which the State will be better able to grapple than it is at present. The bye-election held this week for mem- bers of the Reichstag to occupy the seats for Meseritz and Waldeck, attracted un- usual interest. The struggle in Meseritz, in Prussian-Poland, was between Geérman and Polish candidates. The anti-Semites held the balance of power, and most of them seemed to incline toward the Pole. Observing this tendency, the German can- didate issued a circular embodying the text of Prince Bismark’s appeal to the Germans to withstand at all hazards the encroachments of the Polish faction. This turned the scale and the German was elected. The election in Waldeck was most notable in its result, which was the defeat of Dr. Boetticher, the National Lib- eral candidate, who has held the seat since 1878. A re-ballot was necessary and re- sulted in the election of an Agrarian of anti-Semitic views. The Radicals and Socialists assisted to a great extent to oust Boetticher. The season of congresses is in full blast. The German philatelists held their meet- ing at Mannheim this week and exchanged stamps as well as ideas. It is estimated that the value of the stamps bought and sold on the occasion reached 2,500,000 marks. At Heidelberg the journalist congress was in session this week. The chiefsub- ject of discussion was the progress of the press congress of the International Liter- ary Artist Association, which will meet in Dresden September 15 to 20. The Ger- man Catholics will meet in Munich August 25, A group of €atholics, headed by Count Felix von Loe, Count Floenbroeck and Barons Boelerger and Wallosk, have for- warded a memorial to the Vatican in re- gard to the social reforms, intending that the replies received thereto shall be pre- sented to the congress in Munich. The memorial urged the necessity of co-opera- tive organization among the peasants, a reform of the laws of succession so as to restrain the subdivision of rural proper- ties, the creation of compulsory industr: corporationa, the legal regulation of trades, the protection of small industries against the creation of great syndicates, the regu- lation of salaries, the organization of workingwomen, the prohibition of specu- lation on the bourses and the defense of commerce against combinations. The Pope has ordered that an iuvestlgnfionlxe made “into these subjects by experts and a report thereou submitted to him in order to enable him to prepare an/ exhaustive deliverance upon the questions, which _document is awaited with a great deal of interest, not to say curiosity. The Italian Embagsador has delayed his departure from Berlin for bis annual holi- day, for which he obtained leave some time ago, in order to confer with Chancel- lor Hohenlohe upon the quesiions which were treated of in the course of the Chan- cellor’s recent interview with Em- peror Francis Joseph of Austria. The semi-official press at first declared that Ohancellor Hohenlohe’s visit to the Em- peror was one of mere courtesy, but they now admit that the interview had refer- ence to the situation in Bulgaria and Turkey. As Count Eulenburg. the German Em- bassador to Austria, is absent from his post at Vienna, Emperor William communi- cated by telegraph with the Chancellor,who was spending his holidays at Ausse, near Ischl, where the Austrian Emperor isstay- ing; hence the meeting. It is understood that the conference resulted in a definite agreement between Germany and Austria in regard to the yolicy of the two powers in the Balkan Peninsula. According to the Lokal Anzeiger, the Emperor is about to forward to the Czar an autograph letter with a view of arrang- ing for the Russian Emperor to visit Ber- lin about the end of September. The Empress Frederick attended a two days’ Handel festival at Mayence at the beginning of this week. The festival was held in the hall of the Liedertafel, which was crowded with a most distinguished audience. The first day “Deborah’” was performed and the second day ‘‘Hercules,” with the English tenor, Edward Lloyd. The orchestra comprised only strings, oboes, bassoons, horns and an organ. The critics agree in praising the impressive sonorousness and execution of the work. The Grand Duke of Hesse sent the famous conductor, Fritz Volbach, a compliment to the performance and the performers. Eugene Wolif, the correspondent of the Tageblatt in Madagascar, telegraphs that at least one-fourth of the French army are suffering from dysentery. The present situation in Madagascar is serious. The young Hova party has proclaimed the deposition of the Premier, who is the hus- band of the Queen, and it is also reported at the French front that the Queen herself has fled from Antanarivo, the capital of the country, and that the capital is in a state of panic. A revolution has occurred at Port Dauphin. The natives have risen against the Europeans and an American warship has arrived there to protect the Protestant missions. TUpon the receipt of news that cholera is extending in Volhynia toward the Prus- sian and Austrian frontiers orders have been issued to increase the guards on the Prussian frontier. In the meantime no cases of cholera have appeared in Eastern Prussia. The Goethe exhibition will be opened in the Goethe house in Frankfort to-morrow. The chief exhibition will be Goethe’s por- trait, autographs, albums, etc. The Emperor has caused the old schloss in Berlin to be fitted up with electric ap- paratus and accumulators sufhicient to feed 1800 glow lamps seven hours each day. The American passage visitors now here are: E. F. Uhl, Assistant Secretary of State, Washington; G.R. Hurd, Charles Gregory and D. Braman, New York; W. W. Witmer, Des Moines, Iowa; and Major Day and Dr. Gerton of Rhode Island. ABSOLUTE DIVORCE ASKED. | Mrs. Hattie Danison of Brook- lyn Has Sued Her Hus- band. One Feature of the Case Wil Be the Elopement of the De- fendant. NEW YORK, N. Y., July 27.—Mrs. Hat- tie Danison of Brooklyn has begun an action for divorce against her husband, James L. Danison, on statutory grounds. The case will come up in the Supreme Court in the next few days. The suit explains the social disappearance of a woman who a few years ago gave promise of being a leader in the literary set of New York's 400. A feature of the case, if it comes to trial, according to Mrs. Danison’s counsel, will be an elopement and the divorce arising from it. Mrs. Danison is 28 years old and was born in Boston. She is the only daughter of Henry Augustus Coburn, who was oncea wealthy wholesale dry-goodsdealer of New York. For some years before his death Mr. Coburn had retired from business and when he died he left his widow and aaughter well provided for. Miss Coburn graduated from Mme. Doremus’ private college. Among Miss Coburn’s fellow- &upils were iss Cooper Hewitt, the isses Taylor and Miss Goodwirnr Cheeves. She was just 18 years of age when she met Mr. Danison, who came from a good New England family. He was living on a large private income before his marriage was an officer of the National Guard, o fine appearance and manners and gallant among women. Danison’s wooing was as ardent as brief. The families favored the match and the couple were married in New York, Mrs. Danison not being 19 years of age. The story of what followed was told by the plaintiff in the action to a reporter yesterday, at_her. residence. In her com- laint Mrs. Danison says that her hus- and’s conduct has caused her intolerable suffering. She has been constantly under the care of physicians, and has been at- tended by fifty-eight different doctors, in- cluding several specialists, since her mar- riage. ‘‘Absolute selfishness, inordinate vanity and a constant desire for the com- panionship of other women were the causes which led to my husband treating me as he did. At this time we were living in our own home in this City, “The first oper_ breach that took place between us was when Mr. Danison tried to force me into recciving at that house some of the women with whom he was consorting. Of course I would not do so, and from that time on he began a course of cruelty, the details of which I cannot repeat. ore trouble culminated in a Eeneml breakdown of health. Then m; usband left me. Five years ago I h: him arrested on a chagge of abandonment, the case coming up in Justice Walsh’s court. In the meantime we had been oomgelled to give up our home, and I was with my mother. r. Danison, who had run through his means, was living on money borrowed from members of m family in sums varying from smalil amounts to $500. He still retained his gowen of fascination, and at the aban- lonment proceedings certain members of miown family who were to testify in my behalf yielded to his influence and re- mained silent. These also persuaded me not to press the case, and it fell through. *‘Subsequently I consented to live with him to stop the mouths of gossip. At about this time he formed the acquaint- ance of a Lena Wismnh‘ whom 1 have named as co-respondentgin the present action. She was a married woman, He became infatuated with her and finally eloped with her. Her husband obtained a divorce from her in August last. At this time Mr. Danison was holding a confiden- ggsitlon in the New York, New Haven artford Railroad Company.” rs. Danison is an accomplished musi- cian and was a pupil of Professor Pinau. She is also an authoress, the novel “The False and the True” being one of her works. She has also written a number of short stories. When she first married it was her ambition to found a literary salon in New York society. e R Bond Forger Lewis Located. CLEVELAND, Omro, July 27.—A special to the Press from Columbus, Ohio, says: Z.T. Lewis, the bond forger, may be ap- prehended and brought to justice.

John Wanamaker’s Son Gorged the Parisian Swells. COUNTS WERE PLENTIFUL It Is Said That the Spread Cost a Cool Twenty Thousand. ALL HAD SEPARATE DINNERS. When the Good Things Had Been Consumed Costly Souvenirs Were Distributed. [Copyright, 1895, by the New York Sun.] LONDON, Exa., July 27.—The people of Paris will talk for many a day about the wonderful dinner party given on Thurs- day night at the Pavillon d’Armonville, a famous restaurant in the Bois de Bou- logne, by Rodman Wanamaker, the son of the merchant and ex-politician of Phila- delphia. Twenty-two guests partook of this feast. Twenty-two of the finest equipages which Paris stables could pro- duce called at the same moment at the residences of the guests and then brought them to the banquet hall. The list of guests included Count Bryas, Count de Chazelles, Count La Rochefou- cauld, Baron Van Zuyten, the son-in-law of Baron Rothschild, and the artist, Roland Knadler, of New York. The decorations of the dining-room were marvelously beautiful. Luminous foun- tains, planted upon great blocks of ice, kept the air cool. The dinner itself showed a splendid dis- regard of cost. It was one dinner, but twenty-two independent dinners separate- ly served, one to each guest. There was none of the meanness of the Europeans, who are not ashamed, even when wealthy, to make a roast of fish do duty for the whole party. Each guest had before him a whole leg of mutton, a whole salmon, truffled fowl, a basket of peaches anda double magnum of champagne, besides bottles of wine of sacred vintage and fab- ulous cost. After the dessert had been served a waiter brought around a black silk bag into which each guest thrust his hand and drew out a souvenir. The souvenirs were pearl and emerald pins, ruby links, gold cigarette cases, in- laid with diamonds, and other trifles of substantial value. 1t is asserted that the cost of the entire affair was close to $20,000. Young Wana- maker succeeded to his own satisfaction in demonstrating that American hospital- ity, when measured by the cash standard, quite distances effete European customs. Some of the comments on the affair, in which Frenchmen and foreigners are in- dulging, do not have a pleasant sound in the ears of Americans in Paris, and some protests are made that young Wana- maker is not a typical American host. S CHINA’S LOAN TRANSFERRED. London’s Banks to Handle Money Paid to the Japanese. LONDON, ExG., July 27.—Japan has given instruc tions that the whole proceeds of the Chinese loan raised in Paris be transferred to London. A portion of the money thus secured will be paid out through London firms on account of debts incurred through the war, while another portion will be expended in the purchase of ships and stores. The French bankers dislike this scheme very much, but there isno way in which they can prevent the transfer of the money. MAD REVELS OF REDS, Shawnee Braves Feasting and Dancing to Their Hearts’ Content. Never Before Has Such an Exhibl- tion of Gluttony Been Wit~ nessed in the Territory. ‘WICHITA, Kaxs., July 27.—Near Tulsa, Ind. T., the Shawnee Indians, together with several hundred friendly Indians from the different tribes in other parts of the Territory, are having their annual war- dance. The dance is attended with scenes of the wildest excitement, which are particularly vehement when huge bonfires light up the country for miles around. The painted braves circle around the bonfires, yelling and jumping and making all manner of hideous noise, while they go through the motions of scalping a victim, subjecting him to tortures and then burning his body. They are not allowed to have whisky, but they manage to elude the vigi- lance of the Indian police and smuggle it into camp. A detachment of the military post is there to preserve order, but in spite of their presence the redskins are noisy and reckless, and are continually engaged in savage broils among themselves. To-day a dozen beeves were slain and barbecued amid wild demonstrations of delight. The gluttony of the Indians is said by eye- witnesses to have been the most shocking. Almost every tribe in the Territory except the Cherokees is represented in %a cele- bration. The Cherokee tribe has given up the dances and discountenances them. Not a member of that tribe is there. The dancing may be kept up for several days and nights. —p—e Negro Murders Hanged. RALEIGH, N.
