The physics! and mental strain imposed by the trial is beginning to tell upon the prisoners, both of whom to day plainly showed erideneee of the fatigue and anxiety to which -they hare been sub- jeoted. Mdlle. Bompard vu espeoiaily nerr- one and excited.

The pro-. dings were opened by the Publio Prosecute 'ho summed up the ease on behalf of the government. He began by promis- log fo oonflne himself to the murder and robbery of M. Gouffc He begged the Jury to follow him closely, and to dismiss from their minds all the eridenoe that had been pre sented regarding He ssid he Would make erery effort to uphold Justice tgdnst theories of suggestion, which he de clared constipated a menace to society. He denounced the theories of the Nancy school of bypnoucertand, ciing the results of Professor Charcot's experiments in sup port of his contention, urged that a person who was hypnotised re tained sufficient will power to resist the operator's will.

He said that Professor Charcot's experiments showed that i operator could bring subject so absolutely under control as to force him or her to eoi nut crime. The theoriet of the Kancy school weroiothing less than the old story of the "eril eye and were on a par with ortune- telling with cards. If suoh theories we onoe admitted, personal responsibility would be at an end, aid the laws on which society depended for protection would disappear In anarchy. i Regarding Mile. Bompard, the publio cu tor said that the woman's intellect was not weak, but it waa deprered.

Both prisoners were equally gunry. lae enaence snowea ererrthing in the in whioh the crime was been committed nad been prepared for the hanging of Oonffe, and it waa idle to assert the contrary. The murder of the notary would hare ben impossible un less tne man naa been taxsn unawares, it was the jury's duty to rdect the story of tho- woman. who --iwas as- cul pable as her eompaukin, who frankly a rowed his guilt. It yes the woman's girdle that strangled the tictim to death, it was tne woman who aourered uouae into tne hands of her lorer, who waited for a farorable moment to draw the cord pith which Oonffe waa strangled.

Eyraud was connoted aid condemned to death. Gabnelle Bompaal was also eon- rioted but was not condemned to the guillot ine, bhe waa sontencea to twenty years Imprisonment at hard labor, i When tho public prosecutor had concluded.

M. DeCori addressed the court in behalf of Eyraud. M. DeCori admitted that his task was a difficult one. Tne hoar, he said, seemed about- to strike, not for justice, but to sound the triumph of the huntsmen who had secured their prey.

The clamorots crowd appeared sure of their quarry, tnt he hoped that the jury would not allow themsolres to be influenced by this climor. Eyraud, he continued, had been an man, but had become weak in the hands of a woman. The eril influence of Msilo. Bompard had made him a mere puppet. In order "to show the character of Bompard, counsel read a letter written to her by her first lorer.

Dur- ing the reading of the letter Mdlle. Bomoard burst into a fit of weeping and would hare fainted had not restoratiTes been applied. M. DeCori. procpeding.eontcnded that Bom- and not Errand, conoeired the crime or which they were now being tried.

The original intention of said, was not to murder M. Oonffe, but to extort money from him. This had led rapidly to the grare crime. M. Robert next addressed the court in be-' half of Mdlle.

Bompard. He maintained that Eyraud had enticed her into participation in the crime. The endenoe, be held, prored that she had submitted entirely to her lorer'e influence. As soon ss an opportunity hd ar-. rired to escape from him through Garanger she had seized it, and had made a full confession of the crime to the authorities regard-ins the manner in which the deed had been committed, he said the indictment furnished only an hypothesis.

He would tell the whole troth as rerealed by Mile. Bompard to Dr. Toisin, while she was under hypnotic influence. The storr of the as thus recited by the woman, was thatit had been agreed between, herself and Eyraud that she waa to throw her girdle orer uonne necz, out just as sue was about to do so she was seized with a nerrous attack. which rendered her helpless, end Errand, seeing her scams to ponorm ner part, rushed upon his Tictim and, seizing him by the throat, strangled mm to uueia.

"GabrieUe is 111," concluded Mr. Robert, "and sick women, are not condemned; they are Upon the conclusion of counsel's address the jury retired to consider their rerdict After an absence of an hour and fifty minutes thoy returned and announced the result of their deliberations. Tne rerdict was- that both prisoners were guilty, but extenuating circumstances were found in the ease of the woman.

The discontent of a section of the Coneerratire members of the Landtag orer the gorernment's communal bill has suddenly assumed an aggrarated form, threatening a serious political crisis. The Landtag sent the bill to a commission Just before adjourning for the Christmas recess. Herr Herrfurth, Minister of the Interior, finding majority of the committee bent upon amendments preserring sereral feudal pririleges whioh the bill aimed to abolish, referred the alterations to his colleagues, who authorized him to inform the commission that If the Landtag supported the amendments it would be immediately dlssolred. An angry exchange of words resulted between Herr Herrfurth and the Coneerratire members of the commission, ths latter declaring that the gorernment waa taking a line that wu ruinous to the aristocracy, whioh, they held, waa tho backbone of the monarchy. The Coneerratire Pint adrisea a compromise, and warns its party that a dissolution on suoh a question would result in a liberal majority.

The eommission adjourned until Jan. Sereral of the members will go to Friedrichsruhe to consult Prince Bismarck on the crisis and ask him to appeal to the leaders of the opposition.

There ie no doubt that many will abstain from roting, and it is equally certain that many will giro an un willing support to John Pope Hennessey wboee personality does not appeal to them, but whose success they regard as necessary to sare Ireland from Parnell. The arriral in Kilkenny yesterday of Justin McCarthy, Arthur O'Connor and other aab-Parnellites passed almost unnoticed. As soon as the idle mob of the street reoognised them they gathered about them swiftly, and heartily hooted them, The subsequent meeting, which wss presided orer by the Mayor of Kilkenny, was limited in number in order to keep out the crowd, and to enable those present to condnot their business. They included the members of Hennessey's committee, a number of local, and men of position. The last gare the committee their assaltance that the people were mainly in faror of Hennessey's election and that they had been able to.

eonriace many of the fatality of Parnell's eontinuedjeadersain. The negotiations which will open in Paris next week between the opposing factions are a good deal more hopeful than the embittered language need in the struggle here would indicate. Parnell will send Edward Harrington and John Bedmond to meet William O'Brien and to arrange a conference at which McCarthy and Sexton shall join O'Brien, Parnell and others to discuss tbe situation. Parnell will insist on the exclusion from those meetings of Healy, whose incessant allusions to Mrs. 0'8hea hare made personal intercourse between the two men forerer impoe-eible.

It is positirely stated that Parnell will not now refuse to withdraw from parliamentary life until after the next general election, but will insist on the conditions that he shall be giren back the rirtual leadership of the party, with a joint control of the party finances. This is an em. phatie weakening from his arrogant assertion a short time ago that he would remain ia Parliament despite the opposition of his party, but it ia not possible that honorable and patriotic men will consent hereafter to be dictated to by such a man as Parnell haa prored himself to be. Sexton yesterday declared that if Parnell were reinstated as leader, the majority of the Irish members would rears from Parliament, but this is rather extraragant The real feel, ing of the bulk of the patriotic members is toward a compromise. Drs.

Hackett and Fitzgerald, Mr. Parnell's physicians, hare issued a formal statement, declaring that the eubetanoe thrown into Mr. Parnell's eyes waa lime, and that the danger of permanent injury to his sight ia not yet orer. The KoCarthyitea are ooneentrating their efforts upon a eaarass for rotes. A farther contingent of priests has taken the field, and is making strenuous efforts to.

To-day the tariff on woollen cloths weighing from 251 to 400 grammes per square meter waa raised to 850 francs as the maximum and 230 francs as the minimum.

A continuance of the modus rirendi concerning Newfoundland haa been definitely arranged with England under a distinct stipulation by M.

Bibot in an interriew with Lord Lytton, the British Ambassador, communicated a scheme, of the Council of 8t Pierre, Miquelon, recommending as a basis of settlement the cession to France of the 'Burin peninsula, between Plaisanoe Bay and Fortune Bay, a fine herring fishery and good bait ground.

From ft o'clock until he took his first cup of cocoa, at 8:20, his pain continued to be more orleesaoutc It waa erident in many ways; by the distortions of his face; which was terribly shrunken by his frequent change' of position on the lounge upon whioh he was reclining; by the nerrous twitching of his wasted hands; by the restless glare of his deep, sunken eyee, and in rations other wars, when the cocoa waa prepared, shortly after 8 o'clock. Sued got off the lounge and etaggared to the table where tne nourishing diet waa placed.

The spectacle he presented waa truly pitiable He looked like a skeleton automaton, and when he emiled it was simply ghastly, much ths same kind of smile that a condemned prisoner might be expected to make before going to execution. When he sipped the cocoa there waa a burst of applause from the spectators. Tomorrow ereaing tiucci learea for Boeton, where he will exhibit for a week for 1 1,500. AMXUZ BTVXS HASC05SXJXPTI0S.

Thia propertr ie rery raluable, and will approach nearly 120,000,. 000. The storr is quite romantic, in ita details, and it haa taken more than a rear's work to complete the chain of eridenoe.
