Hartmann's ExtradftiOn-Indign
 Protest of . Paris Journal.
 PARIS, Feb. 25.-In an article in the col umns of La France to-day it is announced that the French Government has informed Count Orlof, the Russian minister to Paris, that 1t Is ready to consent to the extradition of Hartmann, the Russian subject who was ar rested on suspicion of having taken part in the plot to blow up the train containing the Czar near Moscow 6 short time ago. In com- menting upon the action of the Government in the case La France says that it will disep- point public expectation; that the country might have understood Hartmanns expulsion from French territory, but will be unable to understand his extradition. "At this mo- msnt, says La France, ''there are residing in England within ten hours journey of this capital number of Frenchmen who are not only suspected, but have been tried and convicted of crimes worse than that of which Hartmann is accused of. Some of the murderers of the Archbishop of Paris and the Dominican and Jesuit priests, whose blood-stained soutanes hang to-day in the relic room of Notre Dame, are residing in peace and safety in London, and our Government has not dreamed of demanding their extradi ton. Is Republican France to be less pro- tector of political refugees than monarchical England? If the man Hartmann is con- spirator who has sought the protection of our country for the purpose of carrying on plots against a Government with which we are at peace, this Government might right fully conduct him to the frontier and order him not to return. But we do not understand, and the country will not, upon what grounds the Government can rightfully deliver up this man to 8 power which accuses him of an of fence which at it's worst was only an attempt to precipitate political revolution"

The Anti-Chinese Crusade - Dark
 Threats of the WOrkfngmen-Their
 Action Endorsed by Mayor K KallOch.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 25.-At 8 meeting to- day of the ward presidents of the Working mems party it was resolved to have cessa- ton of their processions for the present as producing too much excitement and interfer- ing with their plans for providing work for the unemployed, also discountenancing law lessness and warning the workingmen against any breach of the peace. It was also resolved that upon the perpetration of any ootrages on the leaders of the workingmen, or the employ ment of any force to interfere with the opera ton of the law for abatement of the Chi nese nuisance, or any yielding to demands of the Chinese consul for military interference, we will avenge our friends and visit upon the minions of power a punishment so swift and terrible that the reader of history will shudder at the record. Mayor Kalloch has endorsed the resolutions and explaining " that the last resolution disclaimed laWlessness on the part of the workingmen, but if interfer- ence comes, such as Consul Bee suggests, the perpetrators will be visited with such terri to record it with his pen"
 The board of supervisors to-day passed an ordinance to increase the police force to four hundred men, ostensibly for the purpose of giving work to needy men.

Forty-Sixth Congress.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.
 MT. Whyte, of Maryland, asked unanimous consent to have the bill to remove the disabil- ities of James Monroe Heiskell, of Baltimore, taken up. Heiskell served in the Confederate army when boy, and under section 1.21s Revised Statutes is ineligible to appointment in the army. He thinks he may get an ap pointment as paymaster in the army, and asks to have his disabilities removed.
 MT. Edmunds, of Vermont, asked why the Senate avoided passing the bill repeating the statute entirely. He thought that would be a more open and brave act. He characterized this and all bills of it's kind as parts of a policy to break down the guaranties of our liberty.
 Mr. Garland, of Arkansas, moved an amendment to the bill making 1t repeal the statute referred to. The amendment was adopted
 MT. Edmunds demanded the ayes and nays on the third reading of the bill, which re- suited yeas 36, nays 23. Mir. Edmunds spoke against the final passage of the bill. Messrs. Thurman of Ohio, Beck of Kentucky, and Logan of Illinois, supported it.
 The morning hour having expired the mat ter went over and the Senate resumed consid- eration of the per cent. bill. MT. Edmunds opposed the bill and spoke 8 long time. At one time motion was made to postpone in- definitely and was carried A motion was made to reconsider and after good deal of d1latory work and many motions the Senate at TAO adjourned.

HousE.-After some business calls for infor

HoUsE.-After some business, calls for infor nation, etc., the morning hour was disposed with and the House went into Committee of the Whole to consider the bill making ap- propriation for the Star route service. Mir. Blount, who represented the bill, made a speech in favor Of 1t and said that the House had been brought to it's present attitude by illegal acts of the Postofice department. Con gress had made adequate appropriation, but the Postmaster General in violation of law, had made such an increase that there was a deficiency of $2,O0O,OOO. The committee was willing to report this bill because they did not want the Star service stopped.
 After discussion Mir. Blackburn gave notice of an amendment which he would offer at the proper time to limit the amount appropriated by the bill to $500, ,OO0.
 MT. Baker, of Indiana, gave notice of sub- stitute for the second section by which he pro- posed to appropriate $500,OOO for the ex- penses of inland mail transportation on Star routes for the remainder of the current fiscal year at the present existing contract prices, and reducing the terms for the expediting of routes to the original contract after the first day of March, but the number of trips per week are not to be below the present number.
 Pending further consideration of the bill the committee rose and the House at 4:50 ad- iourned.
