Whatever may be said about the general ability of Gambetta's new ministry, there is no doubt that it is strongly Gambettist. He is not embarrassed by the presence of num- of critical old ex-premiers, willing to see him fail, as they have themselves done. The ministry will probably be devoted to their leader to an extent not often seen in French ministries. Nor is it apparently radical body except perhaps iu the direction of the church. Here ths chief minister is looked on by the UltramontaBes ss a bitter enemy, and the ap- continent of Protestant as Under Secretary is not calculated to mend matters On the whole the French public seems doubtful of the success of the new ministry. The main point is whether Gambetta still retains tue confidence of the French people

A wife's Cruel End.

g
 BOSTON, Sept. 25.-About 2:45 this morn ing officers of the First police precinct were attracted by cries of murder from a tenement house in the rear of 84 Hanover street, north end, and proceeding thither found the life less form of Lizzie Daily, g years old, on the floor of room thirteen feet square, death being caused by ghastly wound in the throat from the windpipe to the ear, in- ficted by her husband, John Daily. The murderer was in the room and promptly taken into custody. The scene of the mur- der is the home of Thomas McGrath and wife, who had taken the Dailys to live with them about & week since The four lived in this one room, which had no furniture save stove and table, there being no bed except two ssshake-downs on the floor. The Me Graths state that Daily was jealous of his wife's acquaintance with Frenchman whom she knew while he was serving four months sentence in Cambridge. The victim, who was enciente at the time of death, was neat looking full developed girl, and the scene as she lay on the floor weltering in her life blood with the husband and murderer stand ing by was horrifying even to the officers. Daily will be arraigned in tho Municipal Court to morrow, the McGraths being held as witnesses. The latter were asleep when the deed was done and were awakened by the death cry of the victim.
