DULL DAYS IN ENGLAND.
LONDON. Nov. 6.-The shipbuilders on
the Tyne, Wear and Mersey have decided
to ask their workmen to submit to re-
ductiOn in wages to the amount of IL per
cent. of the rates now received. This ae-
tion is accepted as an indication Of the
great depression in the shipping trade.
This is borne out by the state of affairs at
Liverpool. The docks which have been set
apart by the harbOr board for the use of
vessels lying up are already full, and the
board are unable to meet the demands
upon them to accommodate unemployed
vessels without using other docks.

SIX YEARS A PRESIDENT.
MIR. WILLARD TO PROPOSE AN
IMPORTANT REFORM.

AIilliken HumOrOusly Declares Blaine
a Brilliant Statesman but Lacking PO-
liticaI Shrewdness-Mr. Bayard's Cabi-
net Appointment.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-RepresentatiYe
Millard. of New York, will offer on Mon
day resolution proposing an amendment
to the constitution making the Presiden.
tial term six years, rendering a man who
has once held it ineligible to reelection
and providing him with a pension.
The Star of this evening has the follow
ing interview:
"Mr. Milliken, of Maine, says th at Mr..
Blaine is out of public life now, though,
of course, it can't be said that popular
sentiment may not throw him into it
again. He'has snaturalinstincts for max
ing money, and has love for literature
which will induce him to occupy most of
his time in literary pursuits. He will go
right to work on the last volume of his
Twenty Years in Congress- and. in his
enthusiasm, he will forget all about the
campaign. When that work is COM
pleted, he will probably spend some
time abroad, and, after that, he
has several literary schemes in mind.
There are three or four historical subjects
upon which he has an idea of writing
books, among which will be a history Of
the war OF 1872. These things will keep
him busy for the next four years, and by
that time he will know what further he
will do.
NOT A POLITICIAN.
''Mr. Milliken says that the public has
an erroneous idea that Mr.. Blaine is a
politician. This, he says, is far from a
fact. Mr.. Blaine is a good worker and a
brilliant man no matter what he is doing.
but he is no politician. This he says was
amply demonstrated throughout the cam
palgn. Heshowed the ability ofan orator
and statesman, but never the shreWdness
of politician. There were several things
suggested to him which would have
secured his election had they been acted
upon, but he paid no attention to them
and lett all to the committee. One of
these things was to go to Mr.. Arthur and
secure the earnest and active support of
the administration. Another thing WAS
st. John. He should have been bought
of if it took half the money in the cam
paign treasury. Then John Kelly should
have been fixed. This last could have
been easily effected if the administration
had taken the matter in hand,0

Frances Fight in China Widening Her

LONDON, Dec. 6.-In consequence of
the Foreign Office having ordered the gov
ernment of Hong Kong to refuse to allow
the French feet to take on coal or provi-
sions at that port Prime Minister Ferry
has asked for an explanation. He re-
minds Earl Granville, Foreign Secretary
of State, that under the arrangement for
the French blockade of FormOsa France
refrained from searching neutral ships
on the high seas on condition
that England should not prevent the
French fleet from revictualing at any
point. 1t is reported that Earl Granville
holds that this agreement stipulated the
enforcement of the foreign enlistment act
at Hong Kong, inclusive of the edict
against coaling. The misunderstanding
in this matter is widening the breach be-
tween England and France.
A letter from Monsignor Chausse,
Bishop of Kwang Tung, is published in the

Quoted by Popular Caterer.
During his recent visit to the east, Mr. Pietro
Ramacciatti, the popular caterer of No. 343 Wa
bashaw street, made special arrangements with
one of the extensive oyster firms of the east to
supply him with the famous New York Count

Mr.. Ramacciotti is enabled to make new de-
parture that is calculated to revolutionize
the oyster trade of this city Hereafter,
he announces his intention to reduce
the price of New York Count stews
to 35 cents, and the same quality of fries
to so cents per one dozen. Mr.. Ramacciotti has
recently built an addition to his es establishment,
and he will shortly commence the manufacture
of French and Italian creams and ices and for the
production of which he has extra facilities hav-
ing purchased only last week one of the largest
freezers in the country. In addition to the above,
the importation of fine fruit will be made q spe-

THE CROUCH MURDER TRIAL.

JACKSON, Mich, March 22.-The Crouch
murder examination was resumed this morn
ing Mrs. Galen E. Brown was present, but
upon observing Officer Mcmahon, of Toledo,
she hurriedly left the place. She was sent
for and brought back, and sworn. She
briefly stated that she lived a week in Toledo,
at Mrs. SANKEY'S, but did not know 1t was
house of i'll repute. She said that she was
with man named McMahan, in Toledo.
She was permitted to depart when Officer
McMahan testified. He found Mrs
Brown at house of designation or ill-repute.
She went under the name of Kittie Palmer.
He said she was at Toledo three weeks with
nooccupation.
Sheriff Winney testified, at first he advised
Holcomb not to offer reward. He detailed
a conversation with Brown, but said Brown
did not state he had stolen a letter from Jud
Crouch, or had a female detective at Hol-
combs. He never expressed great conf
dence in Brown. Detective Haines was
called by the defense to show that the sher-
if did make the statement just denied.
The court refused to have
the detective questioned as it was irrelevant.
The defense announced that Capt. Crouch
was not well enough to testify, and the doc
tor said he must not be disturbed. His was
the principal testimony they had to give and
could not well proceed until after he had
testified, he therefore asked an adjourn
ment until some other day. The prosecu-
ton said they had some rebutting testimony
that could not be put in until after the de-
Tense closed. An adjournment was taken
till Monday.
