GUITEAU's DIVORCE.
He Secures witnesses to Prove HIS
Inndellty.

New York, July 2s.-The Brooklyn
Eagle prints the story of the proceed
ings brought in the Kings county su-
preme court, in the fall of 1875, by
Annie Guiteau against the notorious
Charles j. Guiteau, for absolute divorce
on the ground of infidelity. The case
was referred to Levi Fuller as referee,
to take testimony, and the report and
the case came on hearing in January
1874. Mrs. Guiteau produced but three
witnesses. and one of these was her hus-
band, who appeared voluntarily. He
testified that he was her husband, and
had resided in New York state for
more than a year, which as the law then
stood, was all be could testify in di-
vorce case to which he was a party.
The third witness was the principal one
and her appearance would indicate
that Guiteau helped to prove a case
against himself. This witness was
Clara Jennings. of 2lst street, who tes-
titled that she had known Guiteau since
the previous August, and that the
charges Of in6delity against him were
true. 1t is believed Guiteau secured
the attendance of this witness, and it is
said he first informed his wife of his IN
fidelity and gave her the necessary in
formation to enable her to secure a di-
vorce. He put in no defence, and the
referee reported in favor of the plaintiff
and on the 4th of April following, "a mo-
tion was made before Justice Pratt to
confirm the report Of the referee. and
between that date and the 11th of the
month the judge handed down the de-
cision confirming the report and signing
decree of divorce. In the fall of 1873
when the divorce proceedings were in
progress, and while Guiteau was carry
ing on his liason with Clara Jennings
he was frequenting rooms in New York
among the young mems christian asso-
citation, and his name is on the books
Of that institution as visitor, and
was member Of Calvary Baptist church
and attended religious services of that
church when the divorce was granted.
He was cited to appear before COM
mittee on the discipline of the church,
and when he appeared he confessed his
immoralities and professed penitence,
but the committee had no faith in his
professions and expelled him from the
church.

the EnxIi.h wheat Crops.

Philadelphia. July 2S.-The Ledger''
result of the recent agricultural explain
alton by the London Times correspond
ent, throughout the midland, western
and southern coast of England, show
that the prospects are not particularly
encouraging-few crops reaching the
average. Wheat, like that of last year, is
unlikely to come up to the expectations
formed of it. The observations do not
Justify the bright anticipations of the
earlier part of the season. The intense
heat and deficiency of moisture have
marked the midsummer weather from
the British and French coasts to CEN
tral Europe. 1t is true, the wheat
crops in the United States have fallen
below the average, but there is little
ground for calculations Of the trans-At-
lantic harvests largely exceeding an
average.

London, July 28.-The Pail Mall
Gazette, in leading article referring to
the Irish press of America, says that if
the American government should sup
press these odious newspapers to-mor-
row, the conspirators who devised the
special internal machines-is we accept
the theory that they were devised by
fenians-are not the kind who need
sanguinary leading articles to set them
to their detestable work. They may be
presumed to be cool and calculating
unscrupulous men, who will certainly
not let O'Donovan Rossa into their Sc
crets. 1t is highly desirable that all
governments should make secrets of
this sort as dangerous as possible to the
manufacturers who harbor them, but to
deprive ourselves Of the means of know
ing what they are thinking and saying
to one another, does not bring us nearer
our ends. We do not believe such
propagandum of assassination Is q force,
although it is a sign. Even il it could
show to some extent, force as well as
sign, it would still be an open question
whether its mischievousness would not
be counterbalanced by its utility as a
signal.

The same journal learns from another

Bombay dispatches say battle was

London, July 2S.-The correspond
ence between England and France re
lating to affairs in Tripoli, has been
issued and dispatched from Lord Gran
vile, foreign minister, to Lord Lyons,
ambassador to France. on the 18th inst,
states that in view of the unquestioned
incorporation of the Tripolitan- Turkish
empire, as well as its proximity to
Egypt, her majesty's government could
not regard Interference, of whatever
description on the part of France in
Tripoli in the same manner as they
viewed the occurrences in Tunis. Lord
Lyons having laid the substance of the
above dispatch before the French for
eign minister, was assured by him
that France regarded Tripoli as indis.
putably part of the Ottoman empire,
and she had no intention whatever of
invading it or attempting to establish
any exclusive or predominant influence
in that country. The remonstrances
which had been addressed to the porte
had been mild and friendly, and had
not been made until France had very
good reason to believe that Turkish en-
issaries from Tripoii had been stirring
up dissatisfaction in Tunis. The porte
had been warned Of the danger which
must ensue if fire was lighted IN Tri-
poll which should spread to Tunis, and
it had been assured that if contrary to
her hopes and wishes France was driven
to military measures she would take
defensive measures only, and fresh
troops would not cross the country of
Tripoli. The French minister declared
1t would be real and great sorrow to
him If anything should occur to weaken
the close and cordial understanding
between France and England in regard
to Egypt. The correspondence con-
cludes with dispatch from Lord Gran
vile to Lord Dufferin, ambassador to
Constantinople, instructing him to ad.
wise the porte to exercise great pru-
dence in not giving cause for plausible
complaint to France.

London, July 2s.-The Paris cores
pondent of the Times says: The true
reason for Fastening the date Of the
general election is that Gen. Soussier.
French commander in Algeria, sent a
confidential report to Paris that seri-
Gus insurrection might be expected to
break out in September. A great effort
would then have to be made, and a
formidable army sent to Africa, and
that perhaps the mobilization of the
army would even be necessary; in short
it would needful to take rapid and de-
cisive steps, which might cause uneasi--
ness, owing to the elections. This
made the government alter the date of
the elections, SO If in September the
country is confronted with a serious
African campaign, the elections might
not be seriously compromised and for
midable argument afforded to the OPP
position.

Record.

She Makes the Three Rest Heats ON
Belmont Park, Pa, July 2S.-Ten
thousand people saw Maud S try to beat
her record. The crowd was the largest
ever congregated at this track and was
good natured and well behaved.
Maud S was brought out and after
jogging around the track was sent of
on the first heat. She reached the
quarter pole in 334, half in 1:05t,
three-quarters in 1854. and complete
mile in 1:12, without the slightest
indications of a break. :
In the second heat she reached the
quarter in 32t, half in 1:03s, three
quarters in 1874, here she hesitated,
swerved and finally made bad break,
but recovered and came under the wire
in 2:134.
The third and last heat was almost
repetition of the first, being trotted
clearly and squarely without even a
skip. First quarter in 43t, half mile in
los, three-quarters in 1881, and mile
in 1:l2t. These three consecutiveIheats
are the best ever trotted anywhere in
the world. Vanderbilt was present and
watched the race from the Judges
stand.

minish the security of property in Ire

Great Britain. 1t is understood that
notice was given without consultation
with the conservative leaders and
against their wishes. He believed if
the resolution was pressed to division
the regular opposition will abstain from
voting. The papers oppose it.

TnE ,s=AEIIrEs ~ RUSSIA.


The dispatches from Europe have
recently abounded in reports of the
zeal and energy of the Russian Gov
ernment is suppressing the snti-JewisL
riots in various parts of the empire.
IL is to be hoped these efforts are made
in good faith but the truth is that the
policy of the Government has been such
as 30 encourage the agitation which it
is now announced that the Car has
determined to crush. Laws disc,iD:-
initiating in The harshest manner aga R,t
tile Jewish subjects OF the Oar, and
even against the Jews FROM abroad
who visit Russia as traveller or on,
business, have been IN forse for years
and have not yet been rescindcd.
A ukase of June Z, 1860, declares
that no Jewish Foreigners, except those
of "large capital" shall be permitted to
establish any business in Russia, except
as hank, bankers or manufacturers.
Another law provides that Jews who
come TO Russia on transient business
may remain for one year Bnt the
Russian authorities do not hold them
selves bound to secure the prescribed
slasseve these meager privileges, and
they set aside the law whenever for any
reason, or without any reason, they
choose to disregard il. Only last year
a London merchant of Hebrew race,
but British subject, going to st.
Petersburg on business, WAS warned
to quit the city in twenty-fonr h9urs.
No charge was made against him *
cept that he was Jew; and when me
British Foreign Office took up the mat
ter, and asked for explanations, the
only reply was that tho notice TO quit
had been given in suict compliance
with the provisions of an existing law.
1t was net alleged that the individual
thus summarils expelled from the
country was suspected of any political
or other offence. The Russian author
ties simply took their staad upon the
law. Sir Charles Dixie, after taking
pains to look into the subject, declared
in the House of Commons that as a
matter of fact there was no existing
law which authorized the act complain
ed of, and that, on the contrary, expul-
sion of the merchant on such summary
notice was a direct violation of the
law above mentioned, permitting Jews
cooling to Russia On business to re-
main one year. But it appears to
have been considered by the British
Foreign Office that nothing could be
done in the matter, and that if the
Russian authorities chose in this arbi-
trary manner to deprive an English
subject of the benefits of a law of the
empire, without assigning any reason,
there was no remedy for the injustice.
When high Russian functionaries ex-
hibit such a spirit as this it is not a
matter of surprise thai ignorant peas.
ants amid turbulent agitation, inhAnsd
with blindsrace prejudices, should fee
as if the Government could not really
be in earnest in its demonstration
for the suppression Of anti-Jewish out
RACES.
