Brilliant Republican Victory in the French
Senatorial MISUNDERSTANDING Growth
of Republican Observation-Disclosures
BRILLIANT REPUBLICAN VICTORY.
PARIS, Jan. 5-The senatorial election
which took place to-day resulted in great
republican triumph. OF the conservative
senators whose terms expired only thirteen
have been reelected. ALI the retiring re-
publican senator's have been re elected. The
general results show the election of fifteen
conservatives and sixty republicans.
The republican majority in the senate will
be about fifty seven. Second ballots are
necessary in the departments of Haute
Ceramic and Laades. The result of the
election in Martinique is not yet known.
Among the newly elected republican sena-
tors are M. M. Fourier, ambassador to Tur-
key, De Remusat, Faye and Massey and Gen.
Faidher. Among the rejected conservatives
are NJ. M. de Belcastle la Cave, Behie Du-
-Four, DeGaradie, Adrian de Montpelier,
Viscomte de Meu1, M de Peyre, M de Bas-
tard, Compile Daru, Gen. Boissinet, M. Ber-
nard, Dutriel Bompard, Compile de- Battle,
Marshall Canrobert and Generals Pourcel,
Laysel and De Espinell.
| PARIS, Jan. 5.-Later returns show that
Mr. Dufour de Govardie, conservative, has
been elected to the Senate on the second
ballot. The electoral statistics wonderfully
corroborate the reports of the progress made
| by the republican party in France. Fifty-six
conservatives elected in 1876 received Is, 646
votes, whereas in 1879 they only obtained
3.2O9 votes, losing 12,43S votes. Nineteen
republicans elected in 1876 received 5, 636
votes, and in 1879 received 2O,262, gaining
| 14,626 votes.
PARIS, Jan. 5.-All details of the ssnsa-
tional election add to the crushing charac-
ter of the conservative defeat. M. Renau
in Bouches du Rhones seems not to have
| obtained single vote. M. Branne extreme
Radical. was elected there. In Gerande,
which was hitherto an imperialist strong
hold, all four Republican candidates were
elected. Five Republicans were successful
in the Nord which was also
formerly noted for its reactionary
sympathies. The departments of Herault
and llelet Vilaine also completely abandoned
their former conservatism. The conserva-
tlves are still dominant in Gers, where ex-
Minister Balbie has been reelected, and in
lndre, where M. M. Boudy and De Clement
have been re elected.

Especial Telegram to the Globe1
TAUNTON, Mass, Jan. ga frightful trag-
edy occurred during last night in the village
of Attleboro. Early this forenoon piercing
shrieks proceeded from tenement occupied
by Gardner Tingley, jeweller. summoned
neighbors to the rooms occupied by himself
and family. The screams were given bv the
mans mother, who had been awakened
from sleep by hearing her son attack his
sleeping wife and child with razor. When,
however, the neighbors reached the house
the deed was done. Mrs. Tingley lay dead
in The bed, which was drenched in blood, her
throat horribly cut, and the wall dripping
with the warm blood which had spurted from
the wound. To add to the horror, the little
child by her side was sprinkled with its
mothers blood, and was screaming and cud-
ding up to the lifeless body. Not far from
the bloody bed upon the floor lay the MUIR
derer also covered with blood and apparently
struggling IN the agonies of death. His re-
covery is doubtful. The only reason for the
act seems to arise from insanity.
