trail board of health with proceedings for
having refused to admit doctors who
We're sent by the board to vaccinate the
inmates of the asylum.
The first convictions for a refusal to be
vaccinated took place to-day, when two
gentlemen, one of them leading whole
sale dry goods merchant, were each lined
$50, or IA days imprisonment.
ALL ORDERED vACCINATED.
The central board of health has sent a
peremptory letter to Sister Ste. Theresa,
Lady Superior of the Longu Point Asy-
lum, instructing her to have all the in
mates of the institution vaccinated at
once. In connection with the outbreak
of smallpox in the asylum, the Lady Su-
periOr states that the first case was that
of male maniac. How he contracted
the disease no one knows. He was imme-
diately isolated, but Notwithstanding this
precaution the disease spread, and there
are now is inmates suffering from
smallpox. Three deaths have occurred
since the outbreak, The patients are
now so thoroughly isolated that Sister
ste. Theresa believes no other cases will
occur. The lady superior does not deny
having refused to permit outside medical
men TO interfere with the asylum physi-
clans In their management OF the dis
ease, but claims that the latters' treat
ment was OF the most approved kind.

ToNouINs BUDGET.
The Ministry Sustained by Majority of
Only -Four Votes

PARIS, Dec. 2A.--The Chamber of Depu-
ties adopted the Tonquin credit to-day by
a vote OF 274 to go. IL Is rumored that
owing to the closeness OF the vote the
Cabinet has resigned.
Before the vote was taken, Gen. Cam.
penon, minister of war, spoke in oppose
tion to the proposed evacuation of Tom
quin. He also advocated the formation
OF a colonial army.
Nj. Clemenceau demanded revision OF
the Tien Tsin treaty and repToached NJ.
Ferry with imploring the support OF Bis
marck. An uproar ensued during
which M. Ferry, amid Kisses ana
cheers, made futile attempt to
reply to M. Clemenceau. The latter,
continuing his speech, appealed TO French
men to decide whether 10 was not the
paramount duty of the government to
tighten taxation. The operations in
Tonquin, he said, had prevented reforms
at home, and had endangered the very
existence OF the republic.
NJ. de Freycinet, Minister of Foreign
Affairs, declared that 1t was impossible
for France to evacuate Tonquin. 1--WE
are masters in Tonquin," he continued,
''and the country will be completely paci-
fed by April, A protectorate over Ton
quin will be equally as successful as the
pr0tectOrate over runis. The adoption Of
the Tonquin credit will have a wider
bearing than the occupation OF Tonquin,
as 1t will decide the question whether
France shall have foreign policy. Eu-
rope ia awaiting the ISSUE" NJ. de Frey
cinets speech was loudly cheered.
FERRY IN DISGRACE.
NJ. Ferry, referring TO NJ. Clemenceau's
statement that the ex-PremIer had sim
plored Bismarck's aid" defed M. Clemen-
ceau TO prove his charge.
The latter thereupon read dispatch
from Baron de COurcel, the French Am
bassador TO Germany, addressed TO M.
Ferry, stating that Prince Bismarck had
offered 20 mediate between France and
China, and M. Ferry's reply TO the Baron,
in which he said that he valued most
highly the offer Of the German Chancel-
lOr. The reading Of these dispatches
caused the greatest excitement. NJ. Ferry
was booted and tried TO rush 10 the tri-
bune, but his friends prevented him.
The result of the division on the TOnQuin
credit question was the occasion OF tre-
mendous uproar. Volleys of questions
we're addressed TO the chair. but were un-
answered. The Chamber then adjourned
until Dec. %.
A Cabinet Council has been summoned
for tomorrow. The Ministers will per-
haps retain their portfolios until after the
meeting Of Congress 10 elect President
of the Republic.

Poplar Island Narrows tho Scene of a
Lively Naval Battle.
EAsTON, Md, Dec. pa fierce battle
took place in Poplar island narrows Tues
day night between feet of eight dredge
boats and one Of the oyster police steam
ers, probably Capt. Grlfith's boat, the
Gov. Thomas. The steamer came into the
narrows about IL O'Clock at night, found
the dredgers at work, and attempted to
arrest them. They resisted and opened
fire on the steamer, which was
returned at first with small arms.
A fierce fusilade was kept up for
some time. The dredgers made 1t
hot for the steamer until her captain
opened on them with his cannon. This
silenced their fire and put them to flight.
They started off down the bay, followed
by the steamer firing cannon shot at them,
and passed out of sight of the spectators
on shore, many of whom had been aroused
from sleep by the noise OF the battle. The
witnesses of the fight from the shore could
not tell what damage was done to either
side, but the firing was so fast and
furious, and lasted so long, that they
think there must have been some killed
or wounded,

Carter refused to move when called upon
to do so, saying he had as mach right to
the walk as the policeman.
CARTER ARMS HIMSELF.
They had few words, and Carter went
into the saloon and returned with pistol
in his pocket, and his hand on the
weapon. After a few more words, the
policeman told him to take his hand from
his pocket On his refusing to do so, he
dubbed him. Carter then stepped back, Z,
drew his pistol and fired the fatal shot,
killing Beasley instantly.

While being pursued he fired once at
his pursuers without effect. He was
captured in l5 minutes after the killing
and hurried to jail just in time to pre-
vent his being handled by the crowd
which had gathered very quickly.

The widest excitement prevails, and
lynching Is threatened. An inquest will
be held tomorrow. The Orlando Guards
have been called out TO guard the Jail to-
night. The Mayor ISSUED a proclamation

GERMANY TO BE LISTED.
CONSUL GENERAL MUELLERg
RECALL TO BIZ ASKED.

His Advanced Ideas In Favor of Re-
publican Form of Government objec-
tfOnable to the AutOcrAtiC Notions of
the German Misunderstanding Bayard
to Speak Worry Plainly.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-'Che EUeRiRg
Star has the following:
Consul General Mueller, whose report
upon the feeling of the German govern
ment towards the United States is likely
to lead to diplomatic correspondence be-
tween the two countries. and probably to
demand on the part of Germany for Mr..
Mueller's recall comes from the same
town with Representative Foran, Of Ohio,
who knows him very well. Mr.. Foran
says the report is very characteristic of
the writer, who, he asserts, is man Of
very advanced Liberal views, and believes
In the Republican form of government.
THE OBJECTIONABLE REPORT.
He reported that the German govern
ment is afraid and jealous of the i'm
portation of American pork, and still
more so OF the importation Of American
ideas. He is what was known as a forty
Fighter, having been obliged to leave Ger
many his native country, on account of
participation in the revolution of 1S4S,
when the Liberal Germans strove for q
constitutional form of government.
GROWTH OF his IDEAS.
In this country his Republican ideas
have had full growth, as well as his an
tagOnism to nonarchical government.
When he went back to his native land as
representative of this country he carried
with him all his American ideas. Mr..
Foran says further that he would not
have been received by the German gov
ernment when appointed by President
Cleveland but for the fact that during the
Franco Prussian war he visited the father
land, and though an ardent Republican,
his sympathies in that struggle were with
his own people, and he rendered German
soldiers valuable service in hospitals and
elsewhere.
PARDoNED BY GERMANY.
On account of this the German govern
ment extended to him a pardon for his
previous offenses against the government
so that when appointed Consul General to
represent the United States there was no
objection raised against him. at is felt
to be pretty certain" SAYS the Star, "that
Germany will demand Mr.. Mueller's re-
call, and this government will have to
comply; but Mr.. Bayard will not do so
without making it pretty plain that we
do not recognize the right of any nation
to restrict the liberty of speech of Ameri-
can citizens, and that it is not held by us
to be an offence to entertain Republican
ideas. 1t Is thought that this little
episode will render our relations with
Germany still more strained and that she
will be placed on our list with Austria"
