nails, of France, who died on Saturday,
q large number of Frenchmen attacked
the German socialists in the procession
and destroyed the wreath OF the lat.
ter.
The attack made on the German So.
cialists in the funeral procession was
br r)ught on by the fact that they car
ried German flag conspicuously hois-
red Immediately In the wake of the cof-
An. This provoked the Frenchmen in
the streets, who shouted Down with
the German flagv" The opposition soon
extended to the Frenchmen in the pro-
cession. When the flag was not 10 wer-
ed in answer to these shouts, it was
stoned. Then free fight occurred be,
tween the supporters of the German
banner and the Frenchmen.
Forty thousand persons attended the
Vallez funeral.
Great crowds of people have assem-
bled at ths Bsstile, discussing the anti.
German demonstration during the pro.
cession to the grave. The police force
i'll the nighborhoood was ordered to be
largely strengthened In nticipation of
a renewal OF the disorder when the fu.

ALONG THE COAST AND ELSEwHE RE.
Yesterdays storm of wind and rain
was very severe along the Atlantic
coast and did great damage from
Virginia northward. In New York
city cellars and streets were flooded,
signs and shutters blown down, and
glass windows broken. Five persons
were Injured. two perhaps mortally by
accidents resulting from the high
wind.
Reports from Cape May and Atlau.

The know ledge which we crave and

which We think or dig out for our
selves, which We rejoice In as in o
newly found treasure-that is the
knowledge, be 1T small or great, that is
worth having. 1t is like the food for
which We bunger-it gives us fresh
power and fuller life. 1t matters far
less even what this knowledge is than
the way in which it was gained. The

discovers its principles, and infuses in
to it his own fresh and living force,
perhaps in the form of some new in

Mexican Outrages.

Murders and outrages at the hands
of Mexicen bandits follow In quick
succession on the Texas frontier, says
an Austin telegram to The NeaC York
Herald, and the maruders, having ac-
eemplished either their deeds of blood
or their wholesale robberies, cross
over the Rio Grande, and are secure
under Mexican law from the punish
ment the courts of this state would im-
pose. Gov. Ireland has written several
letters of complaint to the department
at Washington, but still killing and
rapine 90 on unchecked, until now
there seems no protection for the peo-
pie of this section at the hands of the
federal authorities. The latest report
of murder and robbery comes form
Carlo Springs this forenoon, and, as
usual, the ontlaws took shelter on the
other side of the Rio Grande. The
people of that section are now up in
arms, prepared TO defend their lives
and their property from further raids.
Trouble is feared, and in Wow of that
fact Gov. Ireland tonight dispatched
the adjutant general of the state to
the scene. Gen. King takes q force of
Texas rangers along with him to pre-
vent bloodshed, and. if possible, to
bring some of the more daring
criminals that infest the border to
speedy justice.
Your correspondent saw the gov
ernor late this evening and he said,
with marked emphasis: ave are, now
determined to protect ourselves, and
no nice distinctions of International
law shall stand in the way of it. These.
Mexican depredations must cease.

ed of this fact. / have been CORES
ponding with Secretary Frelinghuysen
for many months on the subject, but
all to no purpose. Now that the fed
eral government has failed to give re-
lief, Texas will hereafter defend its
citizens along the Rio Grande, even If
it takes every man in the state and ev-
cry dollar in the treasury to do So"
These bold words of Gov. Ireland are
full of significance, and foreshadow
the policy which the adjutant general
will pursue. Texas, as n man. will
sustain the governor, and even should
a difficulty arise with Mexico, which
can hardly be avoided now, this state
is ready and able to take care OF itself.
Lively times on the border are now
certain, and if a crash or collision oc-
ours the authorities at Washington
will be held to strict account. The cor
respondence between Gov. Ireland
and them will probably be published,
showing that Texas hos been forced

Is an Undeniable Fact.
causes of the Pending Trouble.

lii order to understand fully the circum-
,tances which have led up to the insurrec-
tion in the Saskatchewan country it is neces-
sary to go back to the uprising in Manitoba
IN 1869, known as the Red river rebellion,
and the causes which led to that outbreak.
The Red river rebellion was incident to the
transfer by the Hudson's Bay company of
it's territory to the dominion government
For nearly two hundred years this great fur
trading company had not only enjoyed the
exclusive right to the entire trade and traffic
of the immense possessions granted by King
Charles II. to Prime Rupert and his seven
teen associates, but had made laws for and
governed the territory, having complete
lordship thereof, with full legislative. Judi
cial and executive powers The last renewal
of the charter expired in 1859, and after
that it was never renewed again, the COM
pany having no special advantages beyond
it's tiled and splendid organization. In 1867
the act of parliament creating the Dominion
of Canada contemplated the acquisition by

No Money in Base Ball.

ssThere is no money in base ball
nowadays" said j. z. Allen. one of
the Directors of the Providence Club,
at the recent base ball meeting in this
city. .'The time was when a man who
put his money into a club was quite
sure of coming cut more or less ahead.
but that is past. When the National
League had control of all the best
players in the country a few years ago,
and had no opposition, salaries were
low, and a player who received $1,000
for his seasons work did well. In
1881, when the American Association
was organized in opposition to the
League, the players salaries at once
began to 90 up, as each side tried to
outbid the other. When the two or
CARNATIONS formed what is known as
the National Agreement the clubs re-
tanned their players at the same sala-
ries.
Several other associations were then
organized in different parts of the
country and were admitted under the
protection of the national agreement.
This served to make good players, es-
pecially pitchers, scarce and forced
salaries up still higher, until at the
present time a frst-class pitcher will
not look at a managerfe for less than
SO, 800 for a season. Radbourne, of last
years Providence Club, received the
largest amount of money that has ever
been paid to a ball player. His won
derful pitching, which won the cham
| pionship for the club, cost about 50, 700,
as he did the work of two pitchers and
received the pay of two.
ssSome of the salaries which base
ball players will get next a are;
O'Rourke, Gerhardt, Deasley, Ewing
and Ward of the New York Club, ST.
600 each. Mullane was to have played
with the Cincinnati Club for $4,000.
Dunlap has a contract with the new
League Club of st. Louis for $S, 400.
These are only a few of the higher
prices paid, while the number of men
who get from $4,000 to 8 5000 is large.
At these prices a club with a team
costing only from $4,000 to $4,000
is lucky, but it has not much chance
Of winning the championship. To this
expense must be added the ground
rent. the salaries of gate keepers, and

were Of course compelled to destroy this ar

They also renewed their claims for grants of
240 acres per capita, and from that time to
this the agitation has been kent up. Various
complications nave arisen in the meantime,
and complaints have been made of delays
and arbitrary acts on the part of the govern
menh Riel was again called upon for
counsel and advice. He was visited in Mon
tana, where he has been living, by q depu-
tation of the half breed and IN response TO
their appeal went into the st. Laurent
country. The half-breeds, in the meantime,
had laid their grievances before the domin-
ion parliament at Ottawa Last September
they held a meeting at st Laurent, at which
they adopted a bill OF nights OF which the
following is the substances:
First, the subdivision into provinces of the
Northwest territories. second, the half breeds
to receive the same grants and other advantages
as the Manitoba haif-bTsSds; third, patents TO
be issued at once to the colonists In possession;
fourth, the sale of half a million acres OF domin-
ion lands, the proceeds to be- applied to the es-
adjustment in the half-breed settlements OF
schools, hospitals and suct-ltke institutions,
and to the equipment Of the poorer half-breeGs
with seed grain and implements; fifth, the res
~ervation Of 100 townships OF swamp land for
distribution among the children of half-breeds
during the next 12a years: sixth, a grant of at
tion to be conducted by the nuns In each half
breed settlement; and SEVENTH better provision
for the support of the Indians.
The last item, it is said, was inserted by
