Foul Play, Probably.

Mr.. William Durnford, of Evans
ton. Wyoming, met with a serious
accident on last Monday evening,
which came very near ending his
life. He runs the engine at mine
No. 5, Almy, and drives over in
the morning and back at night, with
q spirited but gentle horse, attached
to a sulky. Shorty after dark, this
horse came tearing into town from
the Amy road, with the harness
and part of the shafts of the sulky
attached to him. He ran through the
streets, taking the sidewalk in most
cases, frightened terribly. He was
finally caught, disengaged from the
harness aud taken to lis stable,
foaming with perspiratiOn. Inquiry
was immediately made, by tele-
phone, in Almy, and it was learned
that Durnford had started home
from there all right about half an
hour previously. Immediate pre-
paratiOns were made by several per-
sons to go out upon the road and
look for Mr.. Durnford, but before
they had fairly started that gentle
man came into town, dragging along
with him the sulky, minus the
shafts. When asked what had hap
pened, he did not know; his head
was cut and bruised and he was
completely dazed his memory seems
to be blank on the subject,

The French.

Paris, SO.-In his Interpretation to
day Granet reproached government
with concealing facts and distrust>
Ing the patriotism of the Chambers.
referring to the Bouree treaty, he
said: China has threatened resist
ence and there was danger of war.
The errors of the government COM
promised the country. The present
moment. ne declared, was q critical
one. and France should turn her
eyes toward passing the Vosges.
The Minister Of Foreign Affairs ad.
dressed the Chamber in reply to the
remarks of Granet.
Challemel Lac0ur, foreign min
lister, in reply to Granet, repudiated
the idea of the TOnguin expedition
being an adventure. The French
were, he said, encountering more
formidable opposition than was ex-
pected, but the difficulties were far
from insurmoUntable. China had
availed herself of the blockade of
the coast Of AMMAN to claim her
suZerainty and home Opposition
had used it.
At this point the speaker was in
terrupted by Pappan, Cleme lceau
a"d Douville. who protested against
his remarks,
Resuming, Challemel Lacour said
the government had no Intention of
advancing upon Here, but it became
necessary to strike a resounding
blow. The speaker justified the oc.
cupation Of Here aud the forts
which had resulted in the treaty
and clearing up Of the situation

ting, Challemel LacOur continued
He said the government had failed
in none of their engagements, mol
was there. any contradiction between
their acts in the record. No i'm
portant event had occurred making
it necessary for the early convoking
of parliament. The French were
masters Of threeSfourths of the Red
River delta, and the enemy occu-
pied but two important places, from
which endorsements would dis,
lodge them. All the documents
necessary have been published, and
those not published IN the yellow
book only showed the inconsistent
cies of the Chinese policy. It was
clear that China never really sought
a serious compromise, but simply
wanted to gain time. while France
had sincerely endesvored to arrive
at an anraQmopt without ancopti q
a humiliating capitulation.

Hawaiian Coolies.

Washington, 3O.-In a dispatch to
the Department of State, ROllin M.
Daggett, United States minister
resident at Honolulu, reports that at
a meeting of the Hawaiian Cabinet
the resolution of April 9th, 1888,
protesting against the further i'm
migration Of Chinese male laborers
into the Hawaiian islands was con-
sidered. A resolution was adopted
instead, authorizing the emigration
thither of such laborers under GER
trim restrictions, under rate not
exceeding 600 in August and three
months thei eafter. The reason OF
this change is understood to be
owing to the great number of Chi
nese laborers who annually return
to China at the expiration of their
contracts.

them it was necessary that they

the laborers made but little progress
