Prance has had abundant occasions for quarrel with Its Parliamentary servants during the last carter nturv. but there seems to be a general disposition In Paris to agree dc that this time they have done her decld- edly the worst turn yet recorded. I re- rive from a public of distinction there the laconic message to-day that In all probability the Bourgeois Ministry will not live through the coming week god that this Is the only good thing that or about the political situation In France Others. not less Impartial or well informed, add that It marks definitely the beginning of the end of the republic 111 a uegiuiiiua vi 4. ui azuia heralded so often before that skepticism is more, than excusable now.

but there are certain novel aspects In this new combination which deserve notice. It Is the first Ministry yet gazetted in Prance which cannot expect a -majority In the Chamber of Deputies without the aid of tae Socialists, and cannot look for a majority in the Senate at alL Furthermore, It deliberately affronts both the navy and army by turning them over to two Ministers whom they have publicly denounced as enemies of the service. In the ease of Cavaignac. at the War Office, this becomes peculiarly grave. Ever since the beginning of the year, when this ambitious poseur failed to be considered seriously as a Presidential candidate, he has been concentrating his.

energies on Incessant demands for army, reform and exhibiting himself -as the chief critic of military abuses. Very likely, abuses exist, but that Is of secondary Importance compared with the fact that every General In the army. and. for that matter, the whole tot ce of officers, regards Cavaignac with active enmity and outspoken contempt. They may be wrong, bat that is the way they feel, and they are not hesitating now to say publicly that the army will not tolerate him as vea Its nomiruJ head.

This Is extremely Serious. The army is a tremendous factor In French and. ft is a commonplace of politics that if the army ever kecame hostile to the republican idea the republic would, disappear overnight. -Boulanger climbed to the dizzy height that he attained simply on the theory that the army was jbehind him. "When it Was revealed that really he had no back-Bag among the important officers he Cropped immediately.

But these important officers are now precisely the ones who are displaying the greatest rancor about Cavaignac. and if it were not so probable that i.e will go out of power almost before he gets in, there would be a genuine menace In their attitude. Even as it la, it is felt that the wind which has Mt the forces stirring In the army" may I hot be easily stilled. And what is to be said of the spectacle cf Hanotaux. who was not In the Parliament at all.

and "who held in trained hands all the myriad threads of a complicated diplomacy Involving the peace of the world, being Jumped out of office by casual vote on an abstract railway question? To do them justice, the French editors admit without exception that It Is supremely silly. Everybody, except one little group of colonial extremists to whom Cavaignac has been Wring assiduous court, desired him to remain at the Foreign Office. There most vf his life has been spent and all his tastes and am'oitions are centred, and he would have gladly remained on the conation that bis work in Madagascar ould be supported by the new Ministry. He had arranged for a protectorate scheme which would have come Into conflict with the treaty, rights that Eng-od, America, and other countries have 1 Madagascar, and he trjed to explain tkst it was impossible to ignore these fithout precipitating misunderstandings, (erhaps ruptures, in foreign relations.

Such diplomatic denials as Russia has given to The London Tlmes's Port Ar thur story do not at all alter the general belief that, in its essentials, it is true. Similarly the jugglery by which it is now sought to ascribe the anti-English attack in the St. Petersburg Official Messenger to a misunderstanding or to a conspiracy of bears to break the Continental Bourses In nowise affects England's perception of the realities, in the kaleidoscopic shift Ing of the situation It once more looks as If the Turkish problem might assert precedence over the Chinese, but In both cases JJt Is manifest that England's and Rus la's Interests are now defined as hostile. Henry Norman, who has been in Con stantinople for a fortnight for The Daily Chronicle. says to-day, under date' of Oct.

23, that the Sultan will die or be killed very shortly, and that the-revolu tlon is a matter of weeks. He writes excitedly, and perhaps sees things unduly red, but from all quarters of Turkey come vivid tales of a complete break down In the official machinery and a uni versal reign of murderous anarchy. It Is said that in Constantinople Itself the Ar menlans and the Young Turkish Party have made a combination, and that an uprising is to' be concerted by Christians I and progressive Mohammedans together. but in the provinces they seem not to have heard of this arrangement, for sav- age massacres are proceeding on strictly raclaJ Unes The COrrespond- I ent asserts positively that the Armenian committee arranged the recent bloody ot also instigated ana managed Thursday the panic-stricken ruQ on the ottoman Banku otherfJ lay the blame on the Turkish rabble, who are pictured running amuck among the Armenians, and all sides reflect the con- viction that if the wild disorder that Is throujrhout the emplre be not checked within the next few days the whole politico-social structure of the Osmanlls will go to pieces, and prompt I Intervention of outsiders become inevit able. England's anxious lookout for possible allies continues.

Italy, of course. Is counted as a certainty, and large hopes are built on Austria, Most moderate hints of English leanings In the Vienna press are telegraphed to London and clutched at with quite pathetic eagerness here. but it Is toward Berlin that most nervous glances are directed and apprehensive ears strained, and everything there is coldly buttoned up, motionless, and silent. The German official papers, when they mention England at all. do so slightingly.

This may signify duly that Germany Is holding out for a price. If so, England desires only to know what It Is to pay, because the terror of the pres ent Isolation Is getting into the marrow of her bones. It was almost touching to note the flut ter of delight with which the people the other 'day welcomed the statement by-cable that all' but a few jingo journals In America displayed sympathy with England as against Russia In the event of trouble in the far East. The English were never able to comprehend at all why any Americans should wish them ill, particularly when Russia was involved. Only last week a high official here said to me that to him the most incompre hensible thing on earth was why the Americans should not make common cause with-people of own blood, language, and civilization, like the men of British.

Guiana, but should befriend wholly un-American men like the Ven ezuelans. The arrival of the Guianan Governor and his report that the whole Venezuelan business is of the most trivial character afforded Immense relief here. There had been growing up a cer tain uneasiness lest Chamberlain might manage to embroil the British relations at Washington, which everybody would have resented as gratuitous, mischievous nonsense. An Intimate friend of Dufferin says that all reports that he is to succeed Salisbury or any one else are untrue. He Is old, extremely deaf, wholly tired and looks forward eagerly to retirement from public life next year.

It would not be easy to exaggerate the calamitous nature of the shape that the shipbuilding crisis has now assumed. Continental politics, especially when they are boiling as at present, have such a fascination for the British press and the I reading public that up to now small attention has been given to this really serious domestic matter. Next week, however, it will be certain of its full share of notice, for, with the lock-out ordered on the Clyde for Tuesday, the most Important Industrial fight that the British have known will be In full blast. In the number of men Involved the deadlock will not compare, of course, with many others of recent times, but In value to the nation, cf Interests involved, and in the danger of irrevocable damage to the country it has no parallels. The great builders of the Clyde and of Belfast say that they are forced to stand together, because if one began to cut the other in wages or other matters It would be Impossible for either to maintain himself against foreign competition; hence an agreement of masters under which the Clyde firms now shut out their men because the Belfast men are on strike.

It la suspected that three Clyde firms which got the Admiralty contracts will withdraw from the association and keep yards open, but even if they do, this will affect the situation only slightly. Another aspect of the matter IS the Immense Impetus that this Northern trouble will give to the Tyneside yards, where during the week orders for three big Japanese warships were placed; but, en- tmruimr Nwciti mn ar. thev can accommodate only a fraction of the work which the Clyde and Belfast send begging, and already Important, contracts have gone to the German yards at et-tin and Dantslg, and others are reported to be transferred, to America. The experience of London shows that shipbuilding Is the most difficult of industries to get back, once It Is disestablished, and the possibility that the enormous, business of the Clyde and Belfast, Incomparably the greatest la the world. Is to be ruined and NEW-YORK, BUyPAY, NOVEJUBER 3, 1895.

FOCJtt dispersed may well frighten the whole nation. As was obvious It would hap pen, the English Tories are beginning to write to the papers, pointing out bitterly that It was for the sake of these Belfast strikers that the Unionist Party waged a ten years war against home rule, which they now repay by doing the best that they can to destroy irretrievably the greatest and most vital of British Industries. Efforts at mediation are still pro ceeding In Belfast, but both sides display the characteristic Ulster mullahness. which gives small hope to the peace makers. One small young woman.

In the meantime, emerging without notice from the obscurity of a Battersea Socialistic circle, has managed successfully to rivet the at tention of three kingdoms upon her pro-: posal to set up housekeeping with an ar tlsan named Sullivan without the formal ity of a marriage ceremony. No penny paper has printed less than ten columns on this engrossing subject during the week, and there has been another head long rush for Grant Allen's Woman Who Did," which apparently Inspired Miss Lancbester's resolve, quite equal to the original demand. The drama began by the action of the girl's father and brothers, who got a physician's certificate of insanity and forcibly dragged her off to a semi-private lunatic asylum. Then Sullivan, who is engaged not to be mar ried to her, applies for a writ of habeas corpus, the papers make a sensational row, the Lunacy Commissioners pay a personal visit to the asylum and re lease the girl. Dr.

Blandford, who gave the certificate. Is an Insanity expert of the first rank. His defense of his action is on the ground that the girl's intention to defy the matrimonial trade-union prln ciple which protects her sex is sufficient proof of insanity. He gets some Con servative support, but this Is drowned by clamor about the liberty of a subject and demand for further limitations of the lunacy laws. A few perfunctory loyal paragraphs about the betrothal- of Princess Maud to her Danish first cousin, who Is three years her junior and not in the line of succession, have appeared in the papers, but the thing is extremely unpopular everywhere.

She is the one member of the Marlborough House family who is re puted, to be above mediocrity mentally. and the public had the idea that she would do something worth while in the marriage market. Her choice Is so dis appointing from every point of view that some excuse seems to be necessary. The story has been started that her betrothed Is Russia's secret choice for the Bulga rlan throne, and that Ferdinand Is to be frozen out to make room for him this Winter. Lecky will probably be elected for the Dublin University vacancy over his un popular banister rival, unless the latter decides to send out a circular which.

I am told, has been prepared for him, at. tacking the "History of European Mor als on the double ground of hetero doxy and sympathy with unchastity Fpur-flf tha of active electorate are clergymen, and it is said that If the cam palgn is fought on these Issues theyJare certain to defeat Lecky; but. according to my informant, his competitor Is hesi tating whether to use this weapon or not The critics are practically united in say ing that Trilby is not a good play at all. and all the people I know who paid to see it are disposed to agree with them. but this palpably has nothing whatever to do with the success of the Haymarket venture, which promises to be prodigious.

The advance booking is on a scale never heard of before, and catch phrases like the altogether are already fastening themselves in the talk of people who de sire to be thought smart. How long the boom will continue it is Impossible to guess, but apparently It will rage with vehemence while It lasts. Hardy's Jude de Obscure is received here mostly in depressed silence. Nu merous papers made preparations to print a review on the clay of the book's appear ance, but only one did so, and that in tone of pained reticence. H.

Z-The official speed of the Ammen ram Katahdln Is 18.13 knots, as reported to Secretary Herbert to-day by the trial board, and the vessel stands rejected under her contract, bearing the distinction of being the first vessel of the new navy falling to reach contract requirements. Unless special provision is made by the next session of Congress, the Bath Iron Works cf Maine, which built the hull and machinery, must rely upon selling her to some foreign Government to recoup expenditures. ln which case a complication would 'arise, as $700,000 worth of armor belonging to the United States Is fastened In place on the vessel and is valueless for.

other Secretary Herbert said he was powerless to waive the specifications of the contract, which stipulated that unless the ram developed 17 knots or ever, the vessel should be rejected. After a long conference with. Gen. Hyde, the builder, the Secretary, however, consented to take care of the vessel at the New-York Navy Yard pending a further consideration of the matter by President Cleveland.

The vessel was wholly of a novel and experimental character, and for this reason few of the builders of warships responded to the advertisements Issued for proposals.

2. Herman W. Mud- gett, or, as be is better known, H. Holmes, was to-night convicted of murder in the first degree for killing Benjamin F. Pietzel In this city Sept.

2, 1894. The jury needed but one ballot to reach this decision. The jury retired at athe conclusion of Judge Arnold's charge. After the retire ment of the jury from "the courtroom the spectators streamed out into the corridors Sunday Plank, as In- Repablleasi Coaaty Platform!

Edward Laalerbseh at Carueale Hall. Oct. Ti When Warner Miller put that plank In the platform at Saratoga it was not meant that the present ridiculous Sunday laws should stand.

What was meant was that new laws should be aaopted which shall do justice to all." "What Is It that causes us to hesitate and to fear for a single Instant that last year's verdict shall be reversed? It Is because an Issue, by shrewdness and has been thrust upon' the attention- of- the community, to the exclusion, to some extent, of the really vital question before us." Here on the east side and the west side there can be no wrong if reasonable comfort can be given." Don't put an obstacle In the way of the man who sits in an open garden and drinks his beer." and eagerly discussed what the verdict would probably be. There was considerable difference of opinion, as many believed the Commonwealth had not thoroughly estab lished Its case against Holmes, but the ma jority were inclined to believe that the jury would convict. Word was sent to Judge Arnold at 8:35 that the Jury was ready to give Its verdict. When Judge Arnold entered the room there were not nearly as many people present as had attended the day session. The prisoner was brought In and placed in the dock.

He was as Impassive as ever, as he took bis seat. The jury came In and took their places, and It needed but little skill as a mind- reader to know what the word would be that the foreman would pronounce. The Court ordered Holmes to arise and Pthen. in reply to the question of the Court, the foreman of the jury pronounced the fatal words. Guilty of murder in the first degree." 'i ne verdict was greeted with absolute silence.

The charge of the Judge must have foreshadowed what his fate would be, but the word Guilty fell upon Holmes with stunning force. He made no outcry and exhibited no emotion of any kind the blow was too stunning for noisy outbreaks. He sat down, and while the jury was polled each man answered to his name, and as each pronounced his sentence Holmes stared vacantly before him. His face looked like that of a corpse. It was as absolutely expressionless as a mask.

Only a nervous twitching of the eyelids and the contraction and dilation of the eyes showed that it was a living, breathing man that sat in the dock. Holmes slowly recovered. Ha realized that his counsel was making a motion for a new trial, ins under up reii and be ran his tongue across It, moistening the dryness, and, clasping his hands together, he leaned forward to listen to the Judare'a decision. When Judge Arnold said that be would hear tne application ror a new trial Mon day, Nov. 18.

an expression of something use nope Drone across noimeri dull lace. Turning to the court officers, he said an eager whisper. Monday, Nov. 17 These were the only words he uttered. Judge Arnold then expressed to Mr.

Ro-tan and Mr. Shoemaker his appreciation of how difficult their task had been, and he complimented them that they had been able to make as good a show for the defense as they did. He intimated that their withdrawal from the case was a device of the prisoner. In a manly, honest way Mr. Rotan gave the Court to understand that their withdrawal was no device of their own, but was done from a sincere conviction, because tbey believed they had not been given time to prepare their case.

Judge Arnold then ordered the prisoner removed, by this time Holmes bad recovered, much of his composure, and he walked from the room with the quick, springy step that is natural to him. The Judge thanked the jury for their attention, and discharged them. If ever a good name would have been a shield and buckler to a man la his hour of peril, that man la Holmes. If ever a man's black deeds rose up to confront and convict him. that man la Holmes.

If Holmes bad only beea in the dock for the rrt.rder of Pietsel it Is an open question the prosecution would not have failed of conviction, but unquestionably his bloody record served to condemn him. The Jury was never in doubt. When they retired from the court room iney iook tneir suppers, and then a brief discussion was had. One ballot was taken, and every man voted to convict. They consumed three hours for their retirement from the courtroom, but they' could have found a verdict in fifteen minutes If they bad so wished.

The day was a trying one for Holmes. When be was brought Into court this morn- lag he showed that the sixain was- fee- Voters Must Not 1.

In supposing Holmes waa oniv jwnc to mmmw miium i emu on riCUWL 1m- ortant and vital testimony was given by "Mrs. ioward about their plans for going away. Mr. Rotan read the testimony of iri.s Toke In relation to how Holmes bad told ber previously to Sunday that they would prooaoiy leave uwi aay, ana now Sne had half packed the trunk when he returned to the house.

After reading the testimony Mr. Rotan continued: Now. senuemen. way oo ne hi. trunk waa packed ty Mrs.

He told Miss Toae that ne waa a maa from the Pennsylvania RaUroad, and the exact date of their leaving waa not fixed until Holmes returned from his visit to Pletzel's house.

Resuming. Mr. Rotan said: We cannot assume that Holmes started nut with the IntenUoa of killing Pletsel. for how could be know that be would ne drunk or asleep, or In any condition so that he oould overpower hVntT He waa only following aa original Intention when he went sway Sunday. They amis especially upon the tesUmony of Dr.

Then he had no knowledge or the -av of the Commonwealth. In the statement he says that was the body PletseL He did not think that they would dare bring a charge of against him. There Is ae testimony which says that Mr. Pietzel did not kUl himself except from the position of bis body. i- When Mr.

Rotan had concluded. Judre Arnold charged the jury. He explained the various grades of murder, and particularly premeditated murder. He advised the jury that in the case before it there could be only be one grade of murder to consider, and that was murder in the first degree. He told the jury that the evidence In this rase was entirely circumstantial, but that was not unusual, as many murder eaaea are de.

In the nresent case there were three nolnra i consider: First, Is Benjamin F. pletsel dead? aecona, it aeaa. aia ne die a violent death? third, if he died a violent death, did he omraii suictae, or uia tne defendant im? The Judge then reviewed the evident When that part of the doctor's testimony was reached In which It waa stated that Pletsel had been killed by poison, and that It could not have been self-admlnlstered. Judge Arnold queried: If the poison was not seir-admmistered.

It was also the first big football game of the year, and so, a great crowd bad Jeeis expected and provided for. Princeton's athletic field waa fitted us for the occasion with banks of seats on all four-sides, those on the east and west sides being the longer.

Altogether, they were ready to accommodate 12,000 persons. But little more than half that number were at the grounds to see the contest, however. A hailstorm In the morning, followed by a cold and drizzling rain, kept the crowds away from this place, New-Tork and Philadelphia having more In the way of shelter and comfort 'than Princeton can. oger to visitors. It became noised too, that the stands that had, been, erected tu-covered affairs, and 'that there would be protection from the rain.

That served 'to deter some from coming here At, all. and It kept from the grounds a number of ladles who bad come as far as Princeton, and had then decided that the par lore at -Princeton Inn. at the Nassau Hotel, or shelter wher ever It could be found, was preferable an afternoon out In the even when a football game was in progress before their I yes. Princeton was thoroughly aroused before the arrival of the first of the special trains began to bring people to the! town. The undergraduates were in for a 'day's sport, and -prepared for It much after the fashion adopted by Boston lana on Bunker HIU Day for their parade of Antiques and Horriblea, One crowd of enthusiastic undergraduates sheltered themselves In long oU-skln coats of the brightest yellow, bound In at the waist with wide black sashes, thus making the Princeton colors about as Conspicuous as It was possible to get The your men belonging to.

Such aa did not affect one or the other of these grotesque costumes contented tbemselves 'with -either wearing of the biggest yellow chrysan. themum they could find, sweaters of the approved tiger pattern, or big bunches of yellow and black ribbons In their buttonholes or about their hats. It was all yellow and black In the shop windows, at the hotels, and all about the town until the first special from. New-Tork rolled in.

This brought the larger part of the Harvard contingent. All the men from Cambridge had a bit of the crimson about them. It waa either a carnation or rose aa a boutonnlere, or a simple badge of crimson ribbon. The Harvard boys brought their huge Harvard flags of crimson with them, of course, and they, also brought their voices, with which they awoke the echoes vf Old Nassau." In sharp, snappy salutations of the "'rah-'rah-Taht" cheer that has so often served as a rallying cry, and has urged the Cambridge boys on td their best efforts when defeat seemed staring them, In the face. It has but rarely proved the cheer of victory, and It did not work today.

5 Shortly after the first of the New- Tork specials, came one from Philadelphia bringing quite a delegation of stu dents from, the University of Pennsylvania. who added their red and blue badges to the crimson throng, the Pennsylvania boys being violent partisans of the Harvard eleven on this occasion.
