SkObelef7s Servian SPeeeh-An Account
 Given by an Intimate Friend.
 ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 31.-M. Asckof, who was on intimate terms with General Skobelef, publishes in the last number of his paper, the Russ, an interesting account of the celebrated speech to the Servian delegation that rang like war cry through Europe. It appears that the speech was in reality never delivered, but was concocted by Camille Frary from the statements of the students pieced out by all the ingenuity and talent at the command of the NouUelle Re0ue. It con- tained much that General Skobeleff said, but in greatly exaggerated form and with con- siderable additions. When the general on reading this production in the paper went down to Madame Adams office to remon- strate he was entreated not to deny the words attributed to him, words which had al- ready spread like wild fire and awakened the dormant patriotism of France General Skobeleff allowed himself to be persuaded and afterward received the thanks of M. Gambetta himself, who said s"The speech has already done great good. It has filled all hearts with patriotic ardor and rouses hopes of Franco Russian alliance. Cela pris comme une trainee de poudre. Look at these telsrams have just received from Havre and Marseilles. The fleet and army are wild with enthusiasm, but warn you that in my paper I shall have to condemn the want of tact shown by General Skobeloff, out of po- htical caution and so as not to appear par ty to it's utterance." M. Gambetta further spoke of his efforts to obtain a revision of tfe constitution, to raise up strong power in France and of the value of the Franco Russian alliance saying among other things ''Thank God that you have no Parliament, If you had one you would go on talking for over 8 hundred years without saying any thinpn

 scribable act of bestiality. Enragsd beyond control he shot at James, who had turned to run away, and Minnie threw herself between them and received the bullet. It is only just to the dead girl to say that many doubt the truth of the story, that it is fiatly contradict ed by Henry James and that the prisoners testimony, which is conflicting in many points with itself, has been disproved in sew eral respects by evidence already given for the State.
