PARASITIC final contest in the streets, on
Saturday night, was the last stand Of the Com
munists, and they fought more desperately than
ever before. 1t was of no avail, however; the
troops steadily drove them back, and yesterday
planted the tri-colOr on the heights Of Belle
Vile and La Villette All accounts concur in
saying that the slaughter among the insurgents
was immense, while the soldiers suffered COM
paratively little Minister Washburne, in his
kilograms to the State Department., confirms
the report Of the murder of Archbishop Oar
boy. Sixty-nine other priests were shot at the
same time. This last atrocity VIC had hoped
would not have been added to the list of hor-
rors 1t is now seen that men in this century
and ut this day, can rival in wickedness, the
worst wretches whose bloody deeds are record
ed in the history of our race in past times. The
Baltimore Sun says 1t may be mentioned
in this connection that the post OF Archbishop
of Paris appears to be one of misfortune as
we'll as dignity. In 1913 Archbishop Attire
was killed at a barricadc where he was en-
deavor;ng to mitigate some of the horrors OF
the revolutionary strife His successor, NJ.
Sibour, was assassinated in 1857, by an insane
priest, whilst celebrating mass The next in
order, Cardinal Morlot, is said to have spent
both his private fortune and his official income
on the restoration of Notrc Dame and similar
works. He died in 1863, and was succeeded
BY Bishop Darboy, Of Nantes, whose sad fate
has Just been announced Both Victor Hugo
and Jules Farre have written letters condemn
ing the Instruction. The latter says that the
acts the insurgents are Of criminal and not
political nature and he desires nelghborng
nations to deliver up those who may enter
