The shou zor” was an allusion to the suicide of the late Colonel Henry, who is said to have cut Fortress his throat in his cell at the of Mont Valerien, after con- to having forged one of the documents, though it has since been claimed the razor with which the deed was committed was not found in the cell of the deceased. M. Brisson then accepted the order of the d proposed by M. Ribot, affirm- the supremacy of the civil over the power. 1 of the Deputles attempted to Sev speak, but their voices were drowned in the uproar which filled the Cham- ber. The order of the day was adopted by a vote of 259 ayes to 2 noes. An amendment proposed by M. Ber- ger, censuring the Government “ for not causing the honor of the army to be respected,” was lost By 274 to 261 votes. M. Demahy then proposed a resolu- tion calling upon the Government to “end the campaign of insult against the army. The president refused to accept the motion, however, and a/ vote was taken 1fusion that on it, amid so much ¢ scrutiny was demanded. Later this showed that the Government was de- feated by a vote of 296 to 243. After the result of the scrutiny had been announced M. Berteau moved a vote of confidence in M. Brisson, which d by a vote of 286 to 254. wa Wheh this vote was declared the Min- isters left the Chamber. After the Ministers had withdrawn the Chamber adopted, amid cries of | “Down with the Jews,” the order of the | day, combining the motions of M. Ri- bot and M. Demahy by a vote of 460 | to 28 A fresh tumult was aroused by the declaration of M. Deboudrey d’Asson, | Deputy for the Arrondissement of Los Sables d@'Olonne, in the Department of | Vendee, that all the Ministers except Ge | Chanoine ought to be im- peached.

The crowds were continually augmented until the ty of the Chamber of Deputies | Claims of Sixty Millions of Dollars | vow clared himself absolutely convinced of the gullt of Dreyfus, and the third who resigned on that account. His totally inexplicable and unexpected act was the chief sensation of the day. He dealt a veritable coup de jarnac to the Cabl- net, and precipitated a new struggle between the military and naval author- ities. Yesterday (Tuesday) was the first time General Chanoine ever sat on the Ministerial bench, and his colleagues knowing that he was unacustomed to the tricks of oratorical efforts, such as M. Deroulede indulged in, tried vainly to prevent his ascending the tribunal. He spoke briefly, with painful incoher- ence, and then literally bolted from the chamber. The scenes that followed were almost indescribable. When M. Brisson ap- peared in the tribunal he was greeted with insults and imprecations from all sides. But he stood his ground calmly. A lady who was leaving the gallery after the adjournment, on being asked by a Deputy how she enjoyed it all, re- plied, “Immense. Wasn't it delirious? So much better than the Comedie Fran- caise.” “Yes,” replied the Deputy, “and this is only the beginning.” It is said that President Faure de- clined to recelve General Chanoine when. the latter called at the Elysee af- ter bolting the chamber. M. Faure sent out word that he could only receive Chanoine's resignation through M. Brisson. In a subsequent interview between M. Faure and M. Brisson, it was agreed that the Portfolio of War could only be entrusted to a civillan in order to assert the subordination of military au- thorities. Even now it is difficult to state clear- 1y why the Ministry resigned, but there is a general belief that it was In order | to avold, if possible, serious street dem- onstrations fomented by Mes: De- | roulede and Drumont, who have been | the heroes of the night's proceedings. | Altogether some 250 arrests have been | made. Nothing is now heard about Fashoda, but it is regarded as extreme- ly probable that the Cabinet crisis will be utilized to put M. Hanotaux back in | the Foreign Office. M. Meline is also | mentioned as a possible new Premie: to succeed the retiring Brisson, who | has succeeded himself. UNION PACIFIC ROAD , IN A STRANGE MUDDLE Against Assets of Four Millions.

WHAT THE WAR HAS SHOWN VALUE OF SHORE BATTERIES AND SUBMARINE MINES. Appropriations Recommended for the Improvement of Pacific Coast Rivers and ‘Harbors. WASHINGT-N, Oct. 25.—The annual report of Brigadler General John M. Wilson, chief of engineers, U. S. A., has been made to the Secretary of War. In consequence of the war with Spain that portion of the report relating to fortifi- cations is most interesting. Upon this point General Wilson say: During the fiscal year projects of pers manent seacoast defenses were prepared and approved by the Secretary of War for Port Royal, S. C., St. Johns River, Fla., Tampa, Fla.,, and Sabine Pass, Texas, making thirty localities in the United States for which projects of per- manent defenses have thus far been ap- pro- posed in 1886 by the Endicott board. At the close of the fiscal year the construc- tion of permanent modern defensive works was in progress in 250 localities. In consequence of the war with Spain and the possibilities of hostile attacks on our coasts, urgent and pre mands were made by Senators, Represen- tatives and local business men for the immediate erection of seacoast batteries at numerous points not contemplated in the general scheme of national defense. In the absence of any available modern armament the Secretary of War directed he immediate construction of temporary batteries, mounting old style armament and siege guns for the.defense of a num- ber of exposed localities, including some which are embraced in the national scheme of defense. ‘While no hostile attacks were madeupon our sea coasts during the war with Spain, the operations of the Amerlcan fleet on the coasts of Cuba and Porto Rico have amply demonstrated the value of coast defenses, including shore batteries and submarine mines, in resisting naval at- tacks. One other important deduction may also be drawn from the results of the war, namely, the great value and effi cleney of the rapld-fire gun. It is gratif: ing to report that not only have a consid erable number of these rapid-fire guns been mounted during the year, but that rovision has been made for .the manu- acture and placing of a large additional number. Existing projects for seacoast defenses contemplate the emplacement of about 500 heav: guns of 8, 10, 12 and 16 inches, about 700 rapid-fire guns of various cali- bers, and about 1000 mortars. These fig- ures are subject to slight changes.

MUCH BUSINESS TRANSACTED | COMPLETE REVISION OF THE CONSTITUTION EFFECTED. Pastoral Read at the Closing Services | Reviewing the Past and Present Condition of tha. Church, Special Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGT N, Oct. 25.—After a ses- sion of three weeks the Episcopal Tri- ennial Council of 1898 came to an end to-night. Probably never before at one convention has the council transacted more business than at this meeting, or of so much vital importance to the church. The work accomplished in- cluded a complete revision of the con- stitution with many important amend- ments, also the adoption of a number of amendments, most of them of a minor character, to the canons. The new constitution will have to be ratified by the next succeeding con- vention, three years hence; before it becomes operative. A matter which has received the earnest attention of the council has been the question of church unity, upon which an amendment to the constitution was adopted. A readjust- ment has been made of the boundary lines of the missionary districts in the West and Northwestern parts of the United States; a new diocese in India has been created; six missionary bish- ops elected, one for the church of Bra- zil and discussions held bearing on the extension of church work in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines. The failure of the proposed canon on mar- riage and divorce caused considerable surprise, but this has been left to a committee of thirteen members to pre- pare a report to be made public nine months before the next convention. To-night both houses, sitting in joint session, brought the convention to a close with devotional exercises and the | reading of the pastoral letter. The ser- vice was a most impressive one, the bishops appearing in their full robes of office. Rev. Morgan Dix of New York read the opening service, Bishop Gailor the pastoral; Bishop Doane made the c ing prayer and Bishop Whipple pro- nounced the benediction. The pastoral recounts briefly the work done by the council, asks that Whitsunday, the seventh semi-centea- nial anniversary of the book of com- mon prayer, be observed in the churches, hails “with satisfaction the YELLOW ABUSE HAS MO EFFECT Hon.

Spectal Dispatch to The Call. MARYSVILLE, Oct. 25.—The edi- torial attack in the Examiner of Octo- ber 20 on Hon W. M.

In this Senatorial Dis- trict—which comprises the counties of Yuba, Sutter and Yolo—there is but scanty reference to the raiiroad in the present campaign as little or no anti- railroad sentiment exists among the W.

SURPRISES BRITISH TURFMEN TWO HUNDRED SOVEREIGNS IN A SELLING RACE. Similar Amount in the Old Nursery Stakes Handicap—In the Other Events He Is Unplaced. ’ Special Dispatch to The Call. LONDON, Oct. 25.—Tod Sloan was a winner of two of four mounts at the first day’s racing. His first race of the day was for 200 sovereigns. Sloan was on Lorillard’s Bayard II. The conditions of the event were that the winner be sold at auction for 100 sovereigns. Sloan was on Fitzgerald's filly in the Fordham welter handicap of 200 sov- ereigns, but did not get a place. The winnér was L. de Rothschild’s colt Va- tel, by Suspender-Velleda. The American jockey rode and won with Lord Farquahar’s Samandal in the Old Nursery stakes handicap of 5 sov- ereigns each, with 200 sovereigns added, for two-year-olds. The Duke of Westminster’s two-year- old bay colt, Flylng Fox, by Orme- Vampire, won the Criferion stakes, while the Duke of Portland’s bay colt, Lathern Wheel, ridden by Sloan, was unplaced. - Results at Latonia.

DEMONSTRATIONS @ND COLLISIONS WITH THE POLICE PARIS, Oct. 26, 1 a. m.—About mid- night 2 mob of members of the Patri- otic League smashed the windows and | glass staircase of a shop whose owner is | said to be a Jew, at the corner of Rue | Aber and the Rue Scribe. The vigilance committee of the So- cialist party issued to-night a mani- festo condemning the action of General Chanoine and denouncing the ‘“make- believe republicans who have strangled debate in the Chamber and created a crisis.” The committee has decided to organ- ize all the socialists and revolutionary republican forces in the country against “military and clerical reaction.” M. Faure has issued no statement to-night, but he will consult this morning with the Senate and Chamber of Deputies. After the adjournment of the Cham- ber of Deputies there was intense ex- citement followed by street demonstra- tions. At many points the boulevard became almost impassable and there were numerous collisions between the dem- onstrators and the police. Only with the utmost difficulty was a semblance of order preserved, and in many cases it was necessary for the cuirassiers to clear the streets, S COLLISION OF THE ROYALISTS AND THE REPUBLICANS PARIS, Oct. 25—About 10 o'clock a band of youthful royalists formed in front of the Military Club, and, after cheering for the army, marched, pre- ceded by the tricolor, toward the of- fices of the Solell and the Gaulois, singing, “C'Est Gammale, que’ell nos -Faut.” (We need Gammele, we mnfust have Gammele) Gammele is a nick- name for the Duke of Orleans and the reference to the story that the Duke, when entering the army. expressed the desire to eat from the gammele or soup bowl of a private. On arriving at the boulevard this demonstration, which had grown to several thousands, met a rival repub- lican organization. A violent collision took place and the republicans cap- tured the royalist flag, which increased the tumult.

Already there is talk of an interim Ministry under Veja de Armijo, President of the Chamber of Deputies, until neace is concluded.

Spectal Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, Oct., 25.—“Jim” Rea's handiwork is plainly discernible in the appointment of the list of election offi- cers made by the Board of Supervisors yesterday, and it now looks as though the voters of this citv will be given an- other exhibition of the disreputable tac- tics that characterized the gang’s vic- tory at the Republican primaries. ‘With only a few exceptions the same inspectors, judres and clerks have been named. At the primaries respectable citizens were deprived of their votes, and ballot-box stuffing and the grossest frauds were perpetrated. All the toughs and hoodlums in the city were out in force working at the polls and the peo- ple who refused to vote the gang ticket were jostled and insulted. These same election officers have been put in the polling places again, and Rea and the Mackenzies will make the most of the advantage. The officers of the primary election were appointed by the Republican County Central Committee at the request of Rea. Now the Board of Supervisors have named the same men, and it is presumed Boss Rea dic- tated the list. The Democrats appoint- ed are friendly to Rea. In the country precincts the election officers are of a better class than in the city. The gang cannot get men in these places to do their dirty work, and con- sequently fair elections are held. But the gang has taken steps to cut down any majority obtained in the country, and anything will be resorted to in the city to gain a big vote. There are seventy-two precincts in the county, and, as each precinct has an election board of eight, there are 576 election officers in the county. This glves the gang quite an army of work- ers. Each of these officers will average at least $10 for his work, so here is a corruption fund of $5760. There may be a few anti-gang men among them. but it is safe to wager the number will not equal twenty-five. By law the Democrats are entitled to one-half the officers, but, as year af- ter year the lists they have submitted to the Supervisors have been ignored, they consider themselves fortunate to get any kind of a Democrat on tihe board this year. The Good Government League and other reform forces are taking steps to head off the wholesale perpetration of the grossest of frauds on election day. ‘Watchers are to be appointed at all the polls, and those discovered at the sli~htest fraud will be prosecuted. Now that Boss Rea has beenconvicted, the people are satisfied that the min- ions of the boss and Mackenzie are not exempt from punishment. The election of James H. Campbell as District At- torney is assured, and with this gentle- man in office evil-doers will get their Just deserts. Rea has controlled that office for the past four years, and a attempt to punish gangsters has bee: quashed. The Good Government League has raised a fund especially for the prosecution of ballot-box stuffers and other perpetrators of election frauds, and the methods employed by the gang to intimidate voters and carry the Re- p;xel:ll‘lcnn primaries will not be toler- a schools, in the church schools and col- leges, and In the careful teaching of the clergy of the church”; recognizes the earnest and effective work of the vari- ous organizations of the church’ and | calls attention to the fact that the list of communicants has grown 10 per cent in the last three years and that the | contributions during that time exceeded those of the preceding period by $150,- 114. “We dare not face the future without a recognition of the fact that the| church needs the stirring up of the | mills of the faithful to the plenteous | bringing forth of the fruit of good | { | works, of the giving of their substance | and themselves for their master's work.” SEEKS TO CLOSE THE POOLROOMS H. H. Noble of Sausalito Complains. Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN RAFAEL, Oct. 25.—H. H. Noble, | a well-known citizen of Sausalito, has evidently arrived at the conclusion that he can force Harrison and Harvey to cease conducting poolrooms in that town. By his attorneys, A. J. Treat and C. L. Burnell, he filéd a complaint with County Clerk Bonneau to-day, asking that the poolrooms be sup- pressed by law as detrimental to his business and property interests. The documents filed are two in num- ber. The first complaint is directed against W. H. Harrison, Charles For- rest et al. The second deals with Joe Harvey, M. T. Bareiros et al. Noble states that he owns certain property situated within 150 feet of where Harrison's business is conducted in the Buffalo Hotel and within 380 feet of where Harvey runs a poolroom at 19 and 21 Water street. He alleges that both “maintain public gaming places where money is wagered and which premises are frequented by an idle, viclous, disSolute, vagrant and criminal class of persons.” These places he claims are rented by Forrest and Bareirog with full knowl- edge of the use to which they are put. For the reason that he believes them to be & nuisance to the public peace and comfort and that they are injuring and will further injure in the future his property interests Noble petitions the court that Harrison and Harvey be re- strained from carrying on a business which is a “‘nuisance,” and that Forrest and Bareiros be enjoined from renting or leasing their property in future for any similar games.

Later he moved to Columbus, Ohio, and published books and afterward to Vandalia, IlL, where he set up the first power press run in Ilinois. S e “The Dead Body,” by H. G. Wells, author of “The War of the Worlds,” in next Sunday’s Call. of prominent citizens was presented to him with a release of a mortgage on his home, the amdunt of the gift thus pre- sented being $1000. Among the signers and donors were such well-known and nfluential citizens as Superior Judge E. A. Davis, N. D. Rideout, the banker; J. H. Jewett, banker and president of the Society of California Pioneers; F. H. Greely of the Buckeye Flour Mills, D. E. Knight, manufacturer and cap- italist, and many others of high stand- ing in the community. The list con tains the names of many well-known Democrats, including James O’Brien, J. G. Cohn, D. P. Donahue, Sheriff of Yuba County; W. H. Carlin, W. T. Elis Sr., A. C. Bingham, J. K. O'Brien, P. J. Flannery, E. P. McDaniel, Dis- trict Attorney; Dr. E. E. Stone and other prominent members of the Demo- cratic party. The testimonial and presentation were entirely non-partisan in character and spoke volumes for the esteem and confidence entertained for the recipient in this community, Mr. Cutter has been official reporter of the local courts for nearly thirty years and in all that period his personal integrity has never been assailed. He has always been noted for fearlessness and independence in the expression of his personal opin- ions, and has never hesitated to attack wrong and injustice through fear of political consequences to himself. Interviews with prominent citizens published a few days ago by the Appeal testify to the high esteem in which Mr. Cutter is held by many of the most in- fluential men in Marysville and the surrounding country. J. H. Jewett spoke of him as ‘“‘the ablest man in the Legislature of two years ago,” and de- clared that his record was excellent. Others could be quoted to the same effect. There is a general expectation that Mr. Cutter will be elected and many Democrats have been heard to say that they wili vote for him. ‘Wallace Dinsmore, chairman of the Republican committee of Yuba County, when asked this morning about the Ex- aminer's strictures upon Mr. Cutter said he had heard no talk on the sub- Ject and considered the attack hardly worth attention. He said that while Mr. Cutter had opposed cinch bills di- rected against the railroad he had al- ways in the Legislature pursued a fear- less and independent course, which had gained for him the approbation and confidence of his constituents. Tha prospects, Mr. Dinsmore sald, were very good for the election of Mr, Cutter by a decided majority. He added -that the Republican State and Congressional ticket would doubtless poll a large vote in Yuba County and the general indi- cations were highly favorable for Re- publican success in both city ang county. —_— INDIANS THREATEN TROUBLE IN NEVADA Shoshones Protest Against Arres: of One of the Tribe—Settlers on the Defensive.
