A Paris cable special to the New York Eres-
ing Telegram. under date of May %, says that
the Irstrd'sigednt announces that at o'clock
on the morning of the 10th inst, just four
days after the birth of her child, Hessy Helf-
man, whom everybody supposed to be alive
and awaiting the pleasure of Alexander, was
hanged in prison. It is said she had been tor
tured daily in the most fiendish manner to
wiring a confession from her. Night after
night she was awakened and warned that her
hour was near. For several days in succession
she was literally strung up, and cut down only
just in time to prevent expiring. On the
morning of the 10th the hanging process is
said to have lasted little too long, and when
Hessy was cut down it was discovered that she
was strangled to death. The Iatransigeant
adds that the indignation and excitement at
st. Petersburg are intense. The troops have
been forbidden to leave their barracks on any
pretense, and 8 revolutionary movement seems
to be anticipated
