CHICAGO, Aug. pa. p Luse has filed a
bill in the United States Circuit Court for
the dissolution of the firm of Marder, Luse
Il Co., type-founders and dealers in printers
materials The present partnership was
formed July 2, 1880, by Luse, John Marder
and Carl Mueller, who on that date bought
out the interest of David Scoield in the old
firm of Marder, Luse & Co. The partner
ship ended by limitation last July, but it

amount to $71 ,946. 35 and the book accounts
to $94, 174.3S. The machinery and fixtures
ore valued at $74, 496 13, and the other assets
at $92, ,436. 49, making the total assets $751;
280.S6 The Indebtedness is $14S, 1856 81, leav-
ing a surplus of $232, 7S4.05. The court is
asked to appoint receiver and to wind up
the affairs of the partnership.

BosToN, Aug 29.-The Republican State
Committee has issued an address to the peo-
pie, marking the opening of the campaign in
this State. 1t says: mo one can overlook
the significance of the resultin Massachusetts
this autumn upon the next Presidential cleo
tion. At the same time it would be worse
than idle TO disguise the fact that the coming
election is essentially State campaign. To
the people of Massachusetts the State issues
are of almost unprecedented gravity, and
justly outweigh at this time all other consid-
erations. Massachusetts, has been foully
slandered, for personal and party reasons, by
her supreme executive magistrate and his
followers. Under the same auspices an ad-
ministrative policy of spoils in the State and
spols and plumber in the city of Boston has
been set on foot, which is utterly at variance
with all the habits and traditions of Massa-
chusetts, and urges the overthrow of power
responsible for such principles

STAR ROUTES AGAIN.



Contractors.
WASHINGTON, Aug pa short time ago
a circular was received by acting Second AS
sistant Postmaster-general Lyman from a
Southern star-route sub-contractor, who said
it had been sent him by A. e. Boone, a fail
ing star-route contractor. 1t was PROPOSE
ton by Boone that the sub-contractor, who
was operating one of Boone's routes, should
pay him in cash one-half the amount of his
sub-contract pay and full contract price of
the routes. In return Boone promised to
make a new sub-contract giving full contract
pay to the sub-contractors. Boone held over
one hundred star-route contracts when de-
clared failing contractor, and in accordance
with the law the department sezes
upon any profits which may accrue upon
such routes as were operated at profit and
applies them to make good the deficiency
caused by losses on the other routes. Under
the law a failing contractor would be enti-
tied only TO any excess of profits that might
remain after the money mad been so applied.
In this case there was no excess, but, on the
contrary Mr.. Lyman says, the entire profit
would amount to much less than the sum
lost on the remainder of the contracts. To
defeat this attempted evasion of the law
circular had been addressed to all of Boones
sub-contractors informing them that the de-
partmept will refuse to permit such sub
contracts to sbe filed and stating that4he
government will not allow itself to be
stopped from appropriating the difference
between the compensation of the sub-con-
tractor and Boone's pay toward the payment
OF his debts.

A RIDICULOUS sCHEmE.
A Silly Effort to Get Up a Colored Southern
Confederacy.

"A SHY EFFORT to Get Up a COlOred Southern
Confederacy.
Washington Special.
The New York Tribune to-day publishes
the following sensational dispatch from this
city. 1t is given for what it is worth, and
for the amusement of Southern people:
John w. Niles, a colored citizen of Arknn-
sas, has arrived in Washington to solicit aid
for movement in which he says the people
of his race in the South are deeply interest
ed. He brought letters of introduction to
Prof Greeley, Fred. Douglass and several
other prominent men in Washington, signed
by the president and secretary of an organi-
zation styled The Colored National Indem-
nifty Association of Arkansas"
The object of the organization, Mr. Niles
says, is to acquire a title to and exclusive
possession of large territory in one or more
OF the Southean States where the colored
people can be permitted to govern themselves
in peace. He represents that there is wide
spread discomfort among them throughout
the Northern States, caused by the fact that
they are in great measure deprived of their
political and civil rights Mr.. Niles asserts
that secret organizations like the one here
presented, are springing into existence in all
these States, and that all the cry of negroes
now is separation" instead of emigration"
The same plan was publicly advocated by
another Arkansas colored man at a meeting
in Washington two or three weeks ago, but it
was not received with much favor bv his
colored auditors. Mr. Niles has entered
complaint at the Postoffice Department that
his mail has been interrupted in Arkansas
on account of his activity in the "separa-
ton" movement, and he asserts that the
postal service in that State requires a
thorough investigation.

THE BOURBON MANIFESTO.
The Excitement Caused by the Posting of
MOnarchical Proclamation.

PARIS, Aug. 80 Yesterday was a day of
excitement in social as we'll as political cir
cles, and all classes are deeply agitated. On
Monday night, between the hours of sunset
and sunrise, the entire city was placarded
with copies of a proclamation which pro-
nounced the Comte de Paris king of France
under the title of LOUIS Philippe II. The
dangerous bits of paper were not discovered
until morning, and they adorned nearly
every billboard and dead wall 1t is esti-
mated that no less number than q, 900 were
put out
These placards were first observed by the
working classes while en- route to their places
of toll and intense excitement Immediately
prevailed Great crowds surrounded every
billboard, and in many instances the senti-
ment of the proclamation was loudly cheered.
Shortly before 8 o'clock the police received
orders to destroy all copies of the instru-
ment found. The task proved very diff
fcult one, as at many bulletin-boards the
spectators resisted the officers and greatly
retarded the progress of their work, To-
night all but five or six thousand of the
pacards have been taken down, or else
mutilated to so great extent that they cannot
be read.
Thus far the police have been unable to
ascertain the names of the persons who caused
the placards to be pasted up, but the opinion
prevails that they are members of the ultra
Bourbon faction, and that their action is
wholly due to the recent death of the Comte
de Chambord
There is nothing striking about the
proclamation. 1t is not so revolutionary in
spirit, as was the manifesto of Prince ':Plon
Plon," some months ago, but still it is strong
enough to cause many dire forbodings. Some
of the Republicans are especially alarmed, as
they have been predicting crisis for quite
period. The instrument, simple as il is,
serves to show that great dissatisfaction with
the present government exists in all classes
If captured. the authors OF the proclamation
will be vigorously dealt with.
The Comte de Paris is said to be in the
southern part of France The Gaulois says
it hears that Prince Jerome Napoleon intends
to publish a manifesto, to be issued coinci-
dent with the funeral of the Comte de Cham
bord.

FRANCE AND AMMAN.
Points of the Treaty Said to Have Been
Agreed Upon.


PARIS, Aug. 29.-Admiral Peyron, Min
lister of Marine received a dispatch from the
Governor of Cochin China, announcing that
NJ. Champeaux had arrived at Sargon bear
ing a treaty of peace between France and
AMMAN, which was signed at Hue on the
25th inst. The treaty provides for a COM

French of the forts on the Thuaan and
Vingchua line the immediate recall of the
Annamite troops from Tonquin, and the
garrisons there to be placed on a peace foot
ing, and the return of the mandarins to
their posts. The French undertake to expel
the "black flags from Tonquin, and thus
insure safety to trade.
The treaty between France and AMMAN
further stipulates that France shall have
absolute control over Annamite finances
and customs, and that the French shall
recognize Hiephema as the new king
of AMMAN. The stipulation for permanent
military occupation by the French of the
forts on the Thuaan and Vingchua line i'm
plies that the blockade of Tourone and Hue
will be replaced by minute inspection of all
foreign arrivals.
The Temps has telegram saying that
during the bombardment of the forts on the
Hue river, the inhabitants of Hue assembled
at the royal palace for the purpose of fore
ing the king to an immediate surrender.
The Liberte says the French fleet on leav-
ing Hue, will proceed TO Tientsin.

Two North Carolina Politicians Have a Per-
sonaI Encounter.
WASHINGTON, Aug. pa difficulty oc-
Cured this evening at the Metropolitan
Hotel between Miles Commander, chairman
OF the Republican State central committee of
North Carolina, and Col. d. McD. Lindsey, a
prominent politician of that State, who is at
present employed in the Treasury Depart
ment in this city The trouble between the
men, it is asserted grew out OF the iilting
of Lindsey's daughter by Commander. The
latter, it is alleged, was engaged to Miss
Lindsey, but recently married another
woman. He arrived here this morning with
his bride and took rooms at a hotel.
Lindsey called this evening and the two men
had long and angry colloquy
in the hotel corridors. AT Lindseys request
Commander drew up some sort of statement
in writing, but this did not appear to be sat
islactory, and after some hot words, Lindsey
struck Commander a violent blow in the
face, knocking him across the corridor.
Friends interfered and parted the men, Com
mander going to his room without resenting
the blow. Lindsey remained at the hotel
several hours watching for Commanders ap-
pearance, and sent up card to his room,
but without a response.
He threatens to punish him still further
and there is the usual talk of a duel.

her willingness to expei Gorilla from French

visit will be simply an act of courtesy.

INDIANAPOLIS MORNING, 80.

The occurrence at Seagorien on Monday, in
which a number were killed and wounded,
has made a deep impression. 1t is believed
the feeling against the Magyars is due to the
saries among the peasants of Croatia, and
also to the increasing exactions of the tax
gatherers, for which Hungary is held directly
answerable.
The municipal authorities of Agram de-
clare that they will resign rather than place
Hungarian arms and notices on the public
buildings. The newspapers of Hungary re-
gard the situation in Croatia as serious.

While there can be no accurate estimate
formed at present of the loss of life, it must
be apparent when it is considered that the
island has a population of more than 10000,
000 that the death list will foot far up into
the thousands. At the last advices the erup-
tions were continuing, although their Vio-
| lence had abated somewhat, and it is feared
that the end of the disaster will show it to
have been one of the most frightful ever
known in the history OF its kind.

The island of Java itself is largely of vol
canic formation. A range of mountains runs
the whole length of the island, from 4, 900 TO
$4,000 feet in height and among the peaks
are thirty-eight volcanoes, some OF which are
in constant activity. The most remarkable
of these is the Tenger, situated at the east
end of the island. 1t has the largest crater
known among volcanoes except one in the
Hawaiian islands. Another volcano called
Papandayung threw out ashes and scorie, in
a single night in 1772, sufficient to cover an
area fourteen miles across and fifty feet deep,
destroying forty villages and 5000 people.
On July 8, 1892, the volcano Galunggong de-
