The Trial OF Five Men for the Brutal Murder
Of an Old Lady.

OF an Old Lady.
PARIS, March 12.-For the last three
days Paris has been full OF the trial Of the
Ave murderers OF Nine. Ballerlch. The
Court OF AssiSes has been crowded. The
authorities, fearing repetition Of the dis
orders which disgraced the trial Of Nine.
Cloyis.Hugues, had barricades erected out
side the court, and refused to admit any
persons without tickets. -Four OF the as
sassins are beardleSs, efteminate youths Of
deplorable antecedents. Their faces bear
the stigma OF the lowest depravity, and
although scarcely over twenty years OF age,
they look like broken down old men.
They all have terrible diseases. The fifth
assassin, Gamahut, is the only member Of
the band having average physical pro.
portions. He was educated at Trappist
monastery, but was thrice elected for
committing heinous ofienses, and soon
earned a precarious livelihood as q Her.
cules In Village fairs. He has a aabby,
debauched appearance. His complexion
is as white as q pierrot. He has the hum
BILE, hypocrihcal expression Of an unirock-
ed priest. When Gamahut appeared In
court the Judge exclaimed: "Was 1t you
who cut Nine. Ballerich's throat2"
Gamahut with plaintiye, obsequious
whinel-"Yes, sir."
HGanahut then proceeded In low, sane
timonious tones, to relate how he and five
companions murdered the old lady, in her
apartments in the rue Grenelle, Gamahut
smearing his hands with rosin so that the
hunting knile could not slip through his
grasp during the deadly work. The Jury
entered the court room at I o'clock this
afternoon, and returned a verdict Of guilty.
Gamahut was sentenced TO death on the
guillohne. The Others were sentenced to
the galleys.

The great and exciting topic here now is
the struggle over The appointment Of Com

prominent candidates are Phil. Thompson,
Of Kentucky, and Joe Miller, Of West
Virginia. l will put the situation as direct
as possible Itis this: Mr.. Carlisle is the
backer OF Thompson, and about all Ken
lucky, Watterson included, Is in the mat
ter most earnestly. Mr.. Joe Miller ex-
Auditor OF West Virginia, Is Randall's
candidate, and his State agrees that il Mr..
Miller Is appointed Commissioner OF In
ternal Revenue they will ask for nothing
further.
Mr.. Thompson is implicated with the
whisky men TO the extentthat he is under
stood 10 have been their paid attorney
and recognized agent at Washington while
a member Of Congress.
Mr. Miller has no connection with the
whisky interest. But this Is not the great
question. II has gone beyond aquestion
between Mr.. Thompson and his friends
and Mr.. Miller and his friends. 1t isnow
question Of policy OF the new Admins
tratien upon the great issue Of protection
and free trade and an indorsement Of Mr..
Carlisle or Mr.. Randall. II Mr.. Thompson
Is appointed It will be received as direct
approval OF Mr.. Carlisle and his free trade
theories. II, on the contrary, Mr.. Miller
Is appointed, It will be taken TO mean that
the administration indorses Mr.. Randall
and his protection views. II neither OF
these men Is selected, and an outsider and
Cleveland, it will show that the new DEM
ocratic dispensation is not ready to de-
clare upon this dominant matter, aud Ia
trimming for political effect. The situation
is thoroughly understood, and make the
assertion after conversations with both
Miller and Thompson. y s g9
