Washington, May 3l.-An important
decision was rendered by the French,
American claims commission to-day, in
the case of Joseph Napoleon Perche,
archbishop of New Orleans, against
the United States. The memorial OF
the claimant sets forth that in 1862, at
which time he was a French subject
residing in New Orleans, the military
forces of the United States, under the
command of Gen. B. F. Butler, occu-
pied that city and demolished prop
erty belonging to him to the value of
$1,000, and subjected him to ar
rest and imprisonment. For these in
juries he claims hei entitled to DANA
ges in $4,000. with the interest.
The United States maintains the arch
bishop is not entitled to recover at all,
as French subject under the present
treaty, for the reason that he is now,
and has been, since 1870, a naturalized
American citizen. The following is
the decision of the commissioners: Arch
bishop Perche in his memorial states
that he was naturalized in the United
States in 1870. He doesn't claim to be
French citizen. Without deciding on
any other cases, which may be ana
logous to this, we think the claim Of
Monseigneur Perche must be rejected,
because it does not come within tie
terms of the treaty, which only pIo-
vides for the claims of French citizens.
While making this decision we deem it
proper for us to express our regret, and
we cannot take the jurisdiction of the
case, which seems upon its face to be
SO equitable.
(Signed) BARON DEARINos, Pres.
L. DEGoFRoY,
A. O. OLDIs,
Commissioners.
The present case is said 10 be decisive
of the whole class of similar cases, in
which large amounts of money are in
volyed.

New York, May 31.-Marie Varian.
aged thirty-five, who keeps lager beer
saloon 654 Sixth avenue, was arrested
this morning charged with deliberately
setting fire for the sake Of insurance. to
a house in which a score of persons
were sleeping, among them a woman
sick in child bed. Circumstances of
the discovery are such as to leave no
doubt of the woman's guilt. The
amount of insurance for which so many
lives were endangered was $4,000.
After thoroughly soaking the floor of
the basement, and heaps of straw and
rags collected there with petroleum, she
set fire to it. The police had warning
of the affair. and the match had hardly
been applied before the woman was ar
rested.

to-day it transpired that he had left
letters signed W. H. Ward, saying he
had recently killed F. B. Bates, of Salt
Lake, and sent his trunk to Miss Liz
zie Swyger, Of Salt Lake, to whom
Bates was affianced. 1t was developed
by letters, kilograms and photographs
from Salt Lake that the suicide was
Bates himself. His story as to his be-
trothal is true, but no adequate reason
is assignable for his suicide and strange
post mortem hoax.

Political Gues.cs and Predictions


New York, May 3l.-Platt said this
morning he thought their chances of
reelection more than good. He be-
lieved they would go back to- Washing
ton. The Posts Albany anti-Conk-
lingites won't concentrate until Conk-
ling's votes melt away. Then proba.
bly, they may have eighty one votes and
elect two candidates, although it is yet
too early to predict this. Carpenter
says COnkling g iron clad votes will stay
by him to the end.
Robertson wouldn't be surprised if
the actual election was held before a
week.
The Express says should the dead
lock continue next week the legislature
will adjourn.
The governor says he won't recon-
vene the legislature, but let the polls
settle the dispute.
The Commercial says the half breeds
boastfully claim to be able TO elect two
senators this week, and that they will
arrange their plans before Thursday.
They utterly reject the thought of re-
turning Conkling, although some would
have favored him if he would drop
Platt. Each half breed has his indi-
vidual candidate, which is bad for
them. The desire to be on the winning
side will make them many converts.
Conkling's men say they will be able
to hold their forces together, and that
popular sentiment so skillfully worked
up by Blaine will turn the day In their
favor.

side and her cargo is washing out. The

TaE Chicago IHfer Ooean thus forci-
bly, and APPLY illustrates the differ
ence between the free trade, protec-
ton, anI "a tariff for revenue only"
1t SAYS:
The farmer who protects himself
that is, the farmer who keeps up
good fences, pastures only his own
cattle, and keeps his crops from cat
tie and hogs which run at large, so
that they cannot break in-will be
likely to have not only enough for
home consumption, but something
for market. And if takes care to sell
more than he buys, he VIII in time
grow rich. II, by such economy and
thrift, his annual income is greater
than his expenses, ii is impossible he
should fall into bankruptcy: it Is i'm
possible he should not increase in
wealth. He has then a substantial
capital on which 10 trade; and if he
follows UP the same principles OF
management in all his business, he
VIII be able to gradually do more and
more business, and Will become bet
ter and better oil. As he accumu-
lates, his wants are augmented. He
viii buy more, because he is able to
buy, partly for taste, partly for com
fort, and partly to expand the value
of what he has already. 1t was the
tariff of duties, 50 to speak. which he
imposed on himself and his neigh
bors-with no wrong to them. and
certainly with great benefit to him
seif-it was this tariff, We say, with
which he started in life, that has
made him a rich and prosperous man,
and able to trade largely with others :;
and it is the same tariff, continued.
which fortities his position, increases
his wealth, and still further extends
his business. Such man can never
fail. 1t Is impossible Bat let him
lay aside these habits OF self -protec-
ton and economy; let him throw
away this tariff; let HIM begin to buy
more than lie sells, and keep at it;
let his fences go down, and all cattle
running at large feed in his pastures
and on his crops-loes it require a
prophet TO tell what will become of
his wealth and his prosperity! Now,
