Official Report of the Sedan Capitulation.
Bismarck's official report to King William,
dated at Douchery on the I'd instant is pub
lished here to-day. He recites at length the
interview held with the French Emperor at
Sedan, which lasted for an hour. Napoleon
sought better conditions in the matter of capitu-
ton than had been offered at first by the Ger
mans.
On this as military point NJ. Bismarck re-
fused any discussion, but announced to the
Emperor that he was quite willing and ready to
discuss questions looking to peace.
The Emperor replied that as he was prisoner
that was impossible, but referred the Count to
the actual Government at Paris.
NJ. Bismarck said that the situation at Paris
offered no entering point for such an overture.
The Emperor then proposed that the French
army be allowed to pass the Belgian frontier
and there surrender its arms. This was also
refused.
The Emperor stated further that he deplored
the horrors of war, but that he had yielded
wholly to the public opinion in declaring war.
NJ. Bismarck accompanied the Emperor to
Bellevue, where General Wimpffen was at that
time negotiating with King William relative to
the capitulation.
The Emperor was not allowed to see the
King until the negotiations for the surrender
were concluded. When these were finally an
nounced they destroyed the Emperors hope for
| better terms. The French officers were then
| dismissed on parole.

Fechter In Hoston.

The Globe Theatre at Boston, with Mr. Fechter as
manager, opened last night. Monte Christie was the
performance. The setting OF the play truly
magnificent. 1t doubtful II anything more satis-
factory and more effective has ever been seen on
the Boston stage than the two scenes representing
the Port OF Marseilles and the Chateau OF III.
The new act-drop, concerning which great expec-

was a draped curtain merely after the French STYLE

called before the curtain and greeted with loud
cries OF "Fechter "Fechter~ and, In response to

Crashed in the WhirIpeoI of Wall street

An Old and Once Wealthy New York House
Crushed In the whirlpool of Wall street.
The old. well-known, and iong-established house
OF Francis Skinner Co, dry goods commission
merchants, have failed Their paper was protested
on Saturday and yesterday the failure publicly
announced. The house OF Francis Skinner t Co.
has been established forty-one years, and until
within the past year was considered one OF the
About five years ago the elder Mr. Francis Skim
died. At that time the firm was considered
worth from five to eight millions OF dollars. After
the death OF Mr. Skinner his estate represented
by his son and Mr.. Bardwel, of the firm OF Jordan
Bardwell, Mr. BIitnal being the other partner in
the firm.
Within the past year or two, instead OF confining
themselves to their legitimate business, they be-
came infatuated with the Wall street gambling
rings, and to their large operations and losses there
is attributed their failure.
The liabilities of the firm are estimated at
g. 900, and their assets at 100000 The prin-
cipal losers are the New England manufacturing
companies, whose goods they sold, the Laconia,
Pepperell Naumkeag, Bates, and Andr0scoggin.
Several Boston banks are also large holders of their
paper, as well as number OF our Wall street
bankers.
The manufacturing companies mentioned above
are wealthy, and the loss which falls ON them will
not affect them in the least The firm for the past
year have not sold the goods OF these companies,
due on previous sales The expectation that they
would be able 10 do so has been entertained until
within short time, when their inability was made
known.
About year ago large quantities Of their paper
was noating about Wall street. and selling con-
siderable discount when in order TO save their

None has been oe ed In this market the past six
months, the last that was negotiated being duly
paid.
AS the failure OF this firm is due entirely to
outside their legitimate business, and this fact is
widely known the effect on the market here is not
noticeable. II is thought in business circles that on
final settlement the firm will pay about fifty cents
on the dollar.-R Y. Sun to-day

"VIVE LA PRUSSE I"
The DANGER of so Exclaiming In France-A
Horrible NarrattYe.

The village of Hautefaye (Dordogne) has been the
theatre OF a crime OF 30 hideous character as to
remind one of the barbarism of the Middle Ages.
Without entering into the details OF the preliminary
Incidents it will suffice to state that wealthy
landed proprietor, the owner OF the chateau
of Bretagnes, one Sieur de Moneys d'ordieres,
was burnt alive by the populace, under the
impression that he had cried out, ViUe Ia PrIsse!"
1t appears that he did make use OF these words but
only at the end OF a reply he was addressing to
band of fellows who had insulted him and his cousin
by pointing them out as "dne gentlemen who paid
others TO fight the Prussians for them" M. de
Moneys Indignantly denied the allegation, and even
declared that though rich he did not intend TO pur
chase a substitute, out would himself risk his life
for the country. He added: "Th0se who at such
moment endeavor to shrk the discharge OF their pa
triOtic duties are towards, and make common cause
with all who shout Vive la Prusse!" These last
words alone were heard by part OF the band who
had provoked this retort. 1t was sufficient. The
young mamie was only twenty -nine--was imme-
diately set upon and fed. He was pursued, recap
tured, and beaten and kicked, and then dragged to
the dried-up bed of a pond in the neld where the
fair is usually held. The ferocous rufiians next got
a heap OF faggots and put the already half dead
man upon it, and having heaped more over him, set
the pile fire. The unfortunate young man. unable
to move, expired in awful agony. His father arrived
while the young man was being burnt. Wnen the
fire was extinguished the body was mere charred
heap The loyalty OF Nj. de Moneys was notorious,
and no one seems to be able to account for this
savage act. The judicial authorities are In search
of the perpetrators OF this atrocity.

This morning Judge Ludlow delivered the follow
ing opinion:
The otof Congress approved July IA, 1870, en-
titled San act TO amend the naturalization laws
and to punish crimes against the same for other
purposes declares seetiOn y "that the ns6uraltza-
ton laws are hereby extended to aliens of African
nativity and 70 persons OF African descent" TIE
amendment commonly known as the fifteenth
amendment TO the Constitution OF the United States
swept away the distinction OF color, and the sec
on OF the act approved July II, 1870 In fact repeals
as 10 aliens OF African nativity and persons OF Afr
can descent much OF the act OF 26th May 1924 as
limits The application OF that act to free white per-
soDs."
Any alien Of African nativity or OF African descent
is therefore placed In the position OF an alien being
a ffree white person !" IT, therefore, an African or
person OF African descent came into the country
before he was eighteen years OF age, and has re-
sided in the country as is provided by the terms OF
the act OF Congress Of May 26, 1924 he entitled to
naturalization.
Satisfactory proof having been made in this case,
it is my plain duty, under the amendment to the
Constitution OF the United States and the act OF
