ACoUITTED.-The case of Mr.. M. B. Keys, who
was charged with taking registered letter from
the post Office at Potomac City, Prince william
was arrested therefor and examined before u.
S. Commissioner Fowler, and by him sent on to
the grand jury OF the U. S. Court, was on Satur-
day dismissed by them. They refused to find an
indictment against him. The evidence before
the commissioner, and presumably also before
the grand jury, did not raise color of suspicion
against him. Mr.. Frankenberg Is the poStmas-

THREE FACTIONS are said to be contending for
the control of Russian policy-the purely reac-
tionary or autocratic party the reform party,
and the so-eaIied new parfy y deSiring onY few
moderate reforms, such as the decentralization
OF the Russian administration. This party does
not seek to have parliament, but simply pro-
vincial delegations with publication OF the
civil service, and the adoption OF severe mea-
sures against all destructive agencies. Count
Schouvalof is the chief supporter of these
views and his return to office will in a measure
depend on his making them palatable to the
Car.

VERDICT AGAINST A PRIEST.-A case OF pecu-
liar interest was decided In the Louisville (Ky.)
court Of common pleas yesterday. Abigail
Smythe some time ago brought suit against
Catholic Church, charging him with assault.
Her petition stated that at the time of the
alleged assault she was employed as nurse at
the bedside OF dying woman who had sent for
him for spiritual comfort. Father Lawler ac-
cording TO the statement of the nurse ordered
her to leave the apartment OF the sick woman,
which she declined to do, when he assaulted
her, and by force and strength OF limb COM
PEELED her to leave. She asked for S25 900 dam
ages and the jury awarded her 81 200, the priest
Offering no defence.

CANADIAN 1NDEPENDENCE.-The Ottawa Free
Press, in referring to the Canadian independence
movement, says:-"Mr. Joseph Perrault, what
ever else may be said Of him, has at least the
courage of his convictions. He went to WASH
ington lately to convince Mr.. Evarts that Cana
da was ripe for new movement tending to an
neXation, and the next we hear Is that Mr. Per-
rault is about starting a newspaper in Montreal
to he called Emancipation COloRidle, which, as
its title indicates, is to advocate the independ-
ence OF Canada. Mr.. Perrault represented Rich
ellen for some years in the provincial parlia-
ment. Retiring from 1t he became secretary of
the provincial board OF agriculture editor of the
Rtrue Ag1tc0le and subsequently secretary to
the Canadian commissioner at the Paris and
