The Paris money iu mainly the residue of tho funda obtained by Parnell himself in America, in tho early days of tho movement. It actually amounts to nearly $L'uO. 000, even with tho costly New Tipperary experiment on hand. This sum. together with the $00,000 already received from the result of tho recent mission, is expected to last more than a year.

All the money collected in America in tho mean while will go to prolong the right which has ruined the chances of Home llulc. Parnell says ho will have aomething important to tell the American peoplo when he issues his manifesto to them, early next LONDON.

He is mentioned now as the origi- i lis colleagues in Dublin on Monday. It will nator of the boom to restore Sir Charles be a dooun)ent ot the llB) ol flettlllg Dilke to his former position in society and jjoliticB.

Tho story goes that Dilke. while ridinir in Hyde Park, was overtaken by the Prince, who greeted him in his usual friendly manner and accompanied him in his ride. Six years ago Sir Charles was a constant visitor at Maryborough House, the Prince taking much pleasure in uis company, but he dropped him after the icaudal. After this episode in tho park. Sir Charles and Lady Dilko called and wrote their names again in the Prince's visitors' book at Marl'iorough House.

As there is not even a remote ohance of Dilko coming up for election until Autumn, or. perhaps, before next Spring, hisfriends consider him foolish to drag the entire scan- dal into the light of day again at this time. The pamphlet published gives even more details than were made public at the time of tho trial. The missing woman Fanny, whoso absence created so much suspicion at the time of tho trial in tho Divorce Court, has been found, and her disappearance has been explained by the fact that her husband was anxious to keep her out of the case, and that he and she lived under an assumed name until tho whole business was over. Fanny is prepared to deny on oath that there is tho slightest truth in the statements regarding her.

Her husband believes entirely in her innocence. Editor Stead is flooding the streets to-day with another red- covered pamphlet, sixteen passes, scarifying Dilke. who will answer it next week with an elaborate defense. An application has been made to hear in camera the testimony in the divorce suit which Countess Hussell is bringing against her husband, Earl Russell. If report goes for anything the evidence with which tho wife intends to support her action will show up the rottenness of a certain section of tho British aristocracy, with details quite as revolting aud as infamous as chose of the London scandals last year.

Countess Russell been, tho heroine in one suit forlannnllment of marriage. About four yearn ago she was married in tbe registry office to Capt. Sebright, but they separated immediately after the ooremony and the marriage was never consummated. The wife pleaded duress and fraud and the Court dissolved the marriage. Last year she married Earl Russell, from whom she now seeks a separation on grounds of an astounding character.

Mrs, William Astor, whose portrait is conspicuous in London shops this week, is not stopping with Mrs. Waldorf Astor at Lansdowne House, but in living at the Bristol Hotel, Mrs. Faran Stevens iu stopping at Brown's Hotel. The social svent of the week in tho American Doiony was Mrs. Marshall Itoberts'tt ball at Spencer Boune on Thursday evening.

Though clashing with Lady Aberdeen's dance, Mrs, Boberta's rooms were filled with the prettiest faces and the cleverest men in London. Mrs, Maokay gave a dinner for the purpose of inviting useful Britishers to meet Composer De Koven. Helen Dauvray loft London to-day for Paris, which is as far as Johnny Ward bae got as yet on his proposed journey to Home. Since the BarinKS' failure promoters try- ine to sell American industries in London have had a starvation time of it. An attempt at a revival was again made this weok by floating some breweries from Milwaukee and Chicago with a capital of seven aud a half million dollars divided into seven hundred and seventy-five thousand cumulative preference shares of fifty dollars each, and the same number of ordinary shares.

Added to this are three million dollars' worth of 5 per cent, bonds which have already been collared by Americans interested in the breweries. As the application books do not close until Monday, there is no telling whether or not the scheme will float, but all the powerful people who have it In band will doubtless get a large number of shares. Backed np by the underwriters, the Standard Oil Company la straining every nerve to defeat the bill before the British Parliament limiting the storage of kerosene oil by merchants and factories, which, if passed, will make a difference of several million gallons a year in their exports to this country. Owing to tbe powerful pressure brought to bear the second reading of the bill has been staved Easter. off until after PARNELL'S ENVOYS TO AMERICA.

LONDON, March is not taking the people on this side of tho water into account in his comimuiications to the Irish- Americans He gave his correspondence with. McCarthy about the Paris money to a news agency, which promised to oir- unlato it in America, but Par- noil specified that it should not be printed in England, However, no such uhrroboratibn needed of the fact that Parnell took McCarthy completely into hie camp, and that Irish-Americana will be canvassed for all they are worth, by both sides, to supply the money to carry on the fight of the Irish party. Par- noil's men will take a very bold course and openly solicit contributions for this purpose, instead of for "carrying on the plan of campaign."

The arrangement made about tho Paris fuudB will probably Btitle for the present, im this Bide of the water, the inquiry into the immense sums spent for tlie Irish cause without any exhibibitioii of a balance sheet. AB nvist of this money came from Irisli- Amorioans, it concerns them more than anybody else to find out where it has gone to.

Tim O'Kelly will head the new Parnoll money-hunting expedition, which sails by the Etruria, to-morrow. Parnell relies mainly on O'Kelly's experiences in America as a newspaper man to make a success of it, but shrewd and capable journalist as ho is, O'Kelly is utterly ineffective as a platform speaker. This work will devolve on William lledmond and young Harry Harriaon, whom Balfour clubbed into distinction at tho Tipperary trials. Harrison is a powerful fellow, of pleasing presence and persuasive voice, only twenty- four years old, one of the best football players and amatour sprinters in Eimland. When a ntudent at Oxi'ord two years aea he went to Gireedore and was imprisoned with Oonybeare for giving bread to the tenants who were holding their cabins againct the oviotors.

He was returned to Parliament last year for Mid-Tipperary. liedmond has been in America twice before, aud succeeded, with his brother, in raising $150,000 lor the "plan of campaign." "Long" John O'Connor will amuse Irish-American audiences. He is the tallest man and one of the wittiest storytellers in the House of Commonu. Both the late Mr. Forster and' have put him in prison.

AN AMERICAN OUTRAGED, Italian Cuntomn officials Commit an Aeaanlt on Mr. HOME, March cane of outrageous treatment of an American citizen by Italian Customs officials at the French frontier has just been reported to the American Consulate here. From inquiries made upon the subject it appears that Mr, Henry Bodgwiok Watts, an American, has resided for the past six years at Ounce, in Piedmont, near the frontier. Mr. Watts has been iu tho habit of crossing and reoroflsine the frontier at his convenience.

A few days ago, while returning as usnal from a drive, Mr. Watta was stopped by some Italian Customs officers and roughly ordered to get out of his carriage and go with them to the nearest Customs Bureau, in order that he might be searched, on suspicion of having contraband goods concealed about his person. After protesting againht such treatment and telling the Customs officers that he bad been in the habit for years of driving across the frontier and driving back when it suited him, Mr. Watts consented to go with his Upon entering the Customs Bureau, an official rushed furiously into the room where Mr. Watts had beentskeu.

and after gesticulating wildly for a moment or so, and giving vent to a tirade of abuse in Italian, seized Mr. Watts and shook him violently. In spite of the treatment to which he had been subjected Mr. Watts remained calm and refrained from resenting the Customs official's violence. The in French, asked the meaning of thefttraee, but for a reply the officer simply threatened to imprison him.

Mr. Watts was then searched, but nothing of a contraband nature was found on him. He was then released. Mr. Watts, however, was not disposed to let the matter pass without protest.

He called upon the local authorities at Cnneo and lodged a complaint against the Customs' officers who had treated him in such an unwarranted manner. To his surprise he found that the Customs' official who had roughly handled him had been there before him and had charged him with outrageously insulting an officer in the discharge of his duties. Upon this charge Mr. Watts was duly tried and was acquitted, when it was shown that the accusations brought by, the Customs officers against the American were not founded upon fact. The Government authorities at Cuueo, not being nt with the decision of the local courts, made an appeal against it, and, in self-protection, Mr.

Watts immediately unon hearing of this new move, made in the interests of the Customs officers who had insulted him, sought the adviae of the nearest United States official representative. Thin, according ta tradition, was the United States Consul at Turin, but Mr. Watts found tin.t this post was vacant, the successor of the late United States Consul there having as yet not been recognized by the Italian Government. Consequently, Mr. Watts was compelled to continue his journey so far as Home, whei-o he in now stopping.

Mr. Watts claims the protection of tho United States Consul, Mr. A. Bourne, and to-dny made a Hworn statement as to what took iit Cunoo. 'lhe matter will be fully investigated by the reduces its scale, it will be the gainer in iti trade with France." SI.

Turrol. onfl of the ardfmt Protectionist Deputies, remarked: France is forced to protect hereeif against foreign prohibitiorii 1 especially against the United States. We i do ot wish to attack anybody." Dr. Viger, another Protectionist Deputy, expressed tho view that "We raise our tar- iffs because the free-trade resime of 1800 1 reduced the wholesale prices of our products i without a corresponding reduction in the retail prices. The new tariff will not reduce the cattle duties, but we intend to remove the prohibition placed upon American pork.

We shall ask in return that the United States shall mortify the features of the United States tariff, which bears heavily on French exporters." 11. Leon Say, discussing the same subject, among other things said: "No Trailers now exist in France and thoro is no prospect of the adoption in Franco of i'ree- 1 trade principles during our time. i M. Molinari, a leading Free-Trader, in conj elusion said that "the reaction in Franco i in favor of Protection is complete. France likow to eat its cake and jet have it.

It Is yot Expected at Washington that the Senata Will lie Called to Met 'Before December Harrison Will TaJco His Time in Selecting Men for the Federal Jiulgeshijia, fSFEriAT, TO THE is not thfi opinion of any man of prominence here that an extra session of the Senate will be called. The general assumption is that the Prest dent will appoint the additional Circuit Judges provided for by the Evart.s bil and leave their confirmation to the Senate at regular session in December next. Judge Holman, of Indiana, whose views are of great all qucstions-of importance, said to a representative of THK to-day that in his opinion tin appointments could bo made at any time during the recess of the Senate.

Ho paid, moreover, that in failing to send in the names of the now Judges before tho late Congress expired, the President as good as indicated that the appointments would be made dnr- iug tho recess. Otherwise Senators would have been privately notified to hold themselves in readiness to oomo back hero a few months hence and assist iu inaugurating the new Court. They were not so notified, and now they have scattered far and near, and some of them on errands for the Government that will occupy them at a distance from Washington for a long time. Others have arranged to travel abroad during the Summer, so an extra session would bo of the proHence and tho valuable counsel of some of the ablest members of that body. It in noted here that this suggestion of au extra session of the Senate dimes from those newspapers which are inimical to Gov.

Hill and are occupying themselves trying to force him to surrender duties at Albany. Tho natural supposition therefore is that the agitation of the question an early confirmation of the now Judges by the Senate springs less from concern for the proper inauguration of the new judicial tribunal than from a desire to embarrass Oov. Hill and through him the Democratic party in New York State. THE WOULP'S advice to Gov. Hill, to to h'orvo his people as Governor until the regular meeting duy of Congress in December, is applauiled hero as being good Democracy ami sound political sense.

Tho President's probable course with regard to the i'ew ijudtreships IR the subject of much speculation here. The belief is that he will go slow in making up the list. Since the whole co'untry is embraced in the roor- ganination to bo effected, a great many names will be presented to him. While it IB conceded that lie will qndenvnr to find good men for the places, it is conceded also that he will improve the opportunity to make some capital for himself in his campaign for renomination. There has been nothing as yet to indicate whether or no.t tho President intends to stn outside of his own narty iu selecting the new judges.

It has been siiMtfested that inasmuch as the meawure creating t.he new placet) was passed by the voles of Democrats as well as liopnblicaiiH. aud as tho real pb.ient sought to he attained is non-political, the appointment of two Democrats would bo not onjy just but To give seven of the placnn to bin own party and two to tho opposing party would, it is argued, bo a division tho President would be applauded for making. But tho probabilitiex are against such action, for the President is a bitter partisan.

There has been a decided andsurprining boom in the investment of British capital in American breweries," said A. E. J. Tovey. Secretary of the Brewers Union, editor, of Tihe browers 1 Journal and general factotum for tho combined brewing interests of the United Stutes, when his attention was di- rootod yesterday to a private despatch from hicago stating that $11,000,000 had junt been subscribed iu Groat Britain for tho purchase of breweries in Milwaukee and Chicago.

It has hardly dawned upon tho average American citizen." he (Continued, ''that within tho past two years nearly 000, 000 has been invested in this country tiy foreigners. The investments of the kind of which the public has oroniirally heard the most have been breweries their kindred industries, malt-houses and grain lls. But towards the close of 1800 the tendency of British investors who seemed by preference to choone American breweries decidedly more conservative, and only the eilt-odged properties, from which a not income of at leant 12 or 15 percent, a year could be guaranteed, were nought out for purchase. "I heard of this enormous investment in Chicago and Milwaukee a few days ago and the investing public will undoubtedly be surprised when it learnn of it through the columns of THE The name under which the Brilit-h capitalists who have just made this purchase are associated is 'The Milwaukee and Chicago' Brewing Company. 1 and tl.oir purchases, the plants, property and good will of which linve been turned into the general fund, comprise the following breweries: 'Valentino lilata, of Milwaukee; the Brand Browing Company, the Bartholomao Lcicht Browing Company, the Brunt Brothers Brewing Company, the Bartholomao Hooaiiig Browing Company and tho K.

G. Schmidt Brewing Company, of Chicago. The capital stock of the now concern, which has, I believe, beon practically all subscribed for since tho books wore opened in Milwaukee.

"As the sales of theno breweries during the last fiscal year, according to the Jn ternal Bevenue Department, aggregated a total of 000,043 barrels, it is evident that thia purchase is one of the most important for some time, and indicates that British vectors are as keenly as ever on the lookout for gilt-edged American property.

The circular is headed and introduced as follows: A PUBLIC PROTEST.

THE PETITION OF NEW YORK PHII33TS TREATED WITH CONTEMPT IN THE LEGISLATURE. A Reasonable Jjtclaration in Favor of Law and Order Refused a Hearing by the Speaker in tin' The Senators of tha State of New York, ro- cenUy allowed a notorious bill Introduced by IWr. Mtidler lo be read twice, and by their unanimous consent ordered lo a ttiird reading nnd prin.oc.1. t'o wero the miluences brought to bear by iho iib'eiits of tiie liquor traflie, taat only two votes inore were needed to make it a Ittw in tho As e.ubly. Unseemly haste was shown to ail van the bill, tincl to allow no opportunity lur the discusfjion ot objections.

Tho Kxcise Committee of the Assembly refused to iuvept any amendments requiring tnat tnis license lor dnni-o halls to sell liquors at all hours be ta'antfld only to resrentalile parties. According to the uf competent lawyers tho Htud'er bill was well calculated io promote public disturbance ot iho peace, especially niter midnight, uud to foster iiUemperance and vice by giving: leiral sanction ior bars to the wornt class of dance halls. incentives, to excessive drinking during: tho nouro devoted to rest would inevitably result from such a Inw. After fully these dangers several priests of New xork City resolved to make Joint protest. 1 lien it was suggested lliat many others would fdadly take part in the movement, and acco dinsly a petition was prepared which, met with general approval.

The circular continues: We, tho undersigned, have adopted this plan of publishing 1 a circular to manliest our hearty concurrence in the good work done by the clergy and to secure for our fellow Catholics a correct statement of tho farts. As citizens, recognizing- tho riirht of to the etrislature to prevent unjust laws, we also desire to enter our inuijrnant proiest aynmat tlie members of the Assembly who voted'o sustain the Speaker in ret using: a heaiinir to Hie petition signed by so many of our distinguished priests. Vve now present it again to the Legislature and at thd same time enter a public protest against tha SckuiT Excise bill. This circular is signed by sixty-two Catholic laymen. Among the signers are Tbad- dons Moriarty.

TLe circular aUo contains a reprint of the protest against the Startler bill to legalize tbe sale of wines and liquors at balls after I o'clock, which was pigucd by 116 Catliolio clergymen and Bent to Albany, as already published in THK WOULD, and which Speaker Sheehan would not allow read. Extracts trom tho utterances of several prominent Catholic clergymen upon the atadlcr bill and tbe general subject of peranre are also given. "The bill is writes Father Power, of All Saints' Church. means the Bale of drink all nicrht at snch.

places as Sulzer's Park and Howard's old. place on Third avenue. After keeping open all day and half tho night tho saloon-keepers should be satisfied," writes Rev. Father Carmody, of the Church of Mt. Curmel.

Other equally strong letters are from the Jtev. Father Kennedy, of St. Jerome's Church, and the Kev. Father Elliott, ot the 1'aulistB. Tho circular closes with several extracts from tbe pastoral letter of the Archbishops and Bishops assembled in the Third Plenary Council of Baltimore.

Tjbis ia one of the extracts Driven: There is one way of the- Lord's Day winch is so prolific of evil results that we consider it our duty to utter against it a special condemnation. Thia is the practice of sellinK beer or other liquors on Sunday or of tho trequenting: places wliere they are sold. This practice tends more than any other to turn the Buy of the Lprd into a day of use it as an occasion lor breeding intemperance. The issuance of this circular shows the lively interest that is taken by the Catholio clergy and laity of this city in the defeat of the Stadler bill. A remarkable phase of the fight is Bhown in the fact thitt moxt of those who aro lighting the measure have heretofore been friendly to Tammany Hull.

These men are now watching thi' action of tbe Tammany legislators and threaten if the latter vote for tho bill to vote and work against them if they ever come up for office again.
