The Times correspondent at Paris

to concur with Rohr in acknowledging

that the willOf the late Prince Impe-

to cooperate with Prince Victor, was
written on the assumption that the
testator would survive Prince jerome
Bonaparte. This reasoning, however
is considered a transparent excuse fol

The Change of Gauge ON the NJ.
Louis, Iron Mountain and
Southern Railway Within Ten

The Change Of Gauge ON the ~.
Louis, Iron Mountain and
Southern Railway Within Ten
Hours.
Little Rock Gazette, 29th.l
The gauge of the st. Louis, Iron
Mountain and Southern railway was
changed yesterday from five feet to
four feet eight inches. This piece of
work, from st. Louis TO Texarkana,
was accomplished from daylight to II
O'Clock. About Eve thousand men
we're employed, and the entire work
that Of changing the gauge, cars and
engines, involved q cost of nearly one
hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
About three hundred cars and fifty
locomotives have been changed al
ready, but of course there are many
more yet to undergo the drawing-in
process. atl1a
There are very few Of the old fash
ioned broad gauge roads left. For
some time the Iron Mountain has
been the only one between New York
and Galveston, and the change makes
an unbroken road, over which the
same cars can be run without chang
ing tracks. Experience has taught
railroad men that the four foot eight
inch gauge is the best, being cheaper
and better adapted to use than either
the broad or narrow gauge, The st.
Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern
railway is one Of the best railroads,
not only of the Southwest, but Of the
United States and the change brings
it still more conspicuously before the
shipping world, as cars can be trans
ferred from almost anywhere in the
South over this line. Trains now run
into the Union depot of st. Louis.
The Texarkans section won the
$lOO prize for making the quickest
change. Commencing at 4 am, at q
O'Clock they had this work completed,
change Of seven miles in two hours.

A Mexican Outrage.

Fort BLISS, TEXAS, June 10.-0n
the 4th of June Corporal Lewis Pease
and Private Elwood Dunlap, both Of
company G., Fifteenth infantry, sta
toned at Fort Bliss, Texas, crossed
over to FL Paso, Mexico. During the
night they were involved in a quarrel
with Mexicans, in which Dunlap was
stabbed to the heart, and died in
stantly,and Pease received three stabs,
seriously wounding him. Dunlaps s
body was carried to the Jail by the
Mexican authorities, and when found
by his friends appeared to have been
thrown into corner like the carcass
Of dog. The application to have the
body delivered for military burial was
denied, unless fifty dollars was paid.
The shameful treatment of the body
and this seeming extortion incensed
his comrades to an extent, that, had
they followed the first impulse, would
have recovered the body by force. But
upon employing better judgment and
taking into consideration what conse-
quenoes this act might have, not for
themselves, but for the government of
the United States, it was decided to
pay the fifty dollars, and leave the re-
yenge for these appearingly atrocious
proceedings to a later and better fit.

TIE Catholic Concert.

A large and critical audience assem-
bled last night in the new Catholic
church building, the occasion being
that Of the grand concert In aid Of the
building fund Of the denomination.
Rev. ]. Y. Cowhick, pastor Of the
Presbyterian church. made a few APP
propriate remarks, introducing Gov.
Hoyt, who delivered a brief but timely
and eloquent address as a prelude to
the regular programme. The govern
or's remarks were heartily %applauded.
Following his address was the admir-
ably selected programme, consisting Of
vocal and instrumental music by the
members of the Catholic church choir,
aided by volunteers, embracing some
of the most talented musicians in this
community. Among those who took
part in the entertainment were Mrs.
Marie II. Bell, Mrs. Masten. Mrs.
Kabis, Miss Louie Clark, Miss Bon,
Miss Zehner, Mr.. E. Clark and Mr..
Buechner. Among the many choice
musical selections with which the au-
dience was qualified were "Recollec-
tions Of Scotland" 1.-THE Harp that
Once Thro' Tara's Halls" "Eilleen
ALBANIA" and Killarney The piano
one of F. Z. Warren's test-added

Father Hayes, the members of the
church, the skillful choir, and the vol
unteers all merited great praise for CIV
ing one of the most pleasing concerts
ever held in our city.

Georoe ]. 81. Louis, Doom.

1t seems to be settled that DIR. st.
Louis, the Fremont wife poisoner, will
be hanged at Wahoo, Nebraska, on Fri
day. Public opinion is very decided
that he is guilty Of the crime for which
he is dothfed to suffer. A petition is
in circulation requesting Gov. Vance to
commute his sentence to Imprisonment
for life. Although numerously signed,
his sympathizers have failed to secure
those of the jury, which found him
guilty, and the Judge before whom the
case was tried. st. Louis is a native of
Appleton, Wisconsin, where his father,
mother and brother now reside. He is
about So years old and a man Of ability
as a physician. The father and brother
have arrived at Fremont and are doing
all in their power to ave his life. His
assertion that he will never be hanged
leads to the inference that he will at
tempt in some manner to commit sui
eide. Sheriff johnson has received at
least a hundred applications for reserved
seats inside the Enclosure, but he is
compelled to refuse even standing room.
There will be only two or three report
ers admitted, and they are connected
with the Wahoo press. At the time his
wife died in Fremont, st. Louis was
very intimate with a woman Of the
town. and who, when he was arrested
fed the country, therefore did not test
ify against him. 1t was this woman
probably that induced him to poison
his wife.
