In view of the decision of the German
Emperor to exclude from the German
fine art section of the Paris Exhibition
any picture recalling the war of 1870,
the French government has resolved to
exclude French pictures commemora-
ting that war. 1t would seem as though
the French government would hardly
have needed the example of Germany
to induce it to adopt the excluding pol
icy as regards pictures of the war of
1870. For what purpose would it dis
play pictures of that struggle?

Washington, May 11.-Dennis, of
Florida, who came here with fraud
revelations, has left for home, equally
disgusted with the Republican admin

get hurt,

ONE of the great and perplexing
questions of the times is as to whether
or not Senator Don Cameron's grown
daughter approved Of his marriage to q
girl two years younger than herself.
Some newspaper authorities say she

mention her presence at the wedding.

at caucus tonight, by vote of Al to 3
decided to re-district the state, which

VIII That Settle I,9

London, May Schouval-
offs return to London from st. Peters,
burg is generally expected to definitely
settle the question Of peace or war he
tween England and Russia. The Sc
cret of his scheme for settlement has
been remarkably well kept. The best
opinion is that it simply presents what
Schouvaloff is satisfied is the least mod
ification of the San Stefano treaty that
England would accept from any Euro
pean conference. 1t is believed to in
clude the substitution for part OF
Russia's proposed territorial aggran-
dizement, the British guarantee of a
pecuniary indemnity, coupled with the
condition that the respective rights OF
the powers in the Dardanelles' shall re-
main unchanged.
Withdrawal of the Russian Troops Denied.

Russo formally denies that the Russian

surrendered the fortresses and the Eng.
lish fleet has left its present anchorage
