THE FRENCH PRINCES.
by a Decisive Vote the Chamber Decides
Against Their Expulsion.

by "a Decisive Vote the Chamber Decides
Against Their Expulsion.
PARIS. March Amid great excitement, the
Chamber of Deputies, this afternoon. rejected a
motion for the immediate expulsion of the
French princes from France. The vote against
the measure was 345 to 176. The motion had
been favored by an almost unanimous vote at a
conference of the party of the Extreme Left,
fostered by M. Clemenceau, and by him advo-
Gated with great eloquence.
M. De Freycinet, Prime Minister, led the op-
position. His argument was a cogent statement
of reasons why such an extreme expedient was
unnecessary at the present time. 1.-THE proposed
explosions" declared n. De Freycinet, .'are
needless after the recent electoral victories gained
by the republic. France is in the midst of a
commercial and industrial crisis. The depres-
sion in trade will not be remedied by the ex-
pressing questions. France requires calm, just
now"
In vain N. Clsmenceau, after this, hotly main
tanned that the princes was conspiring against
the republic, and that the republic should ex-
pei them as a legitimate means of defense. The
House simply overwhelmed him with its adverse
majority of 1859.
The debate was then continued on other mo-
tons before the Chamber concerning the princes.
M. Rivet's proposal to leave to the government
the initiative of expulsion of the princes was re-
jected-333 to 1873.
An order of the day expressing confidence in
the capacity of the government to deal with the
question was adopted-353 to 112.

the one against whom the Charges were
brought. For, after all, what harm would re-
sultq they argued. There will be no ~investi-
CATION of the charges the President want
ing them simply as q purely formal
excuse for making suspensions. The
Senate could not take this view of
it, and did not feel that it was just
for any official to be even formally condemned
without opportunity to defend his good name.
Hence the papers were called for, and the
President refuses to allow them to be delivered
because he knows they are false and cannot
be s~ubstantiated. Either that, or they are Of
such trivial nature as to make a burlesque of
them. It is encouraging to see reputable
Democratic papers taking the wholesome Dem
ocratic view that public officials have the
right of self-defense, just as men in private
life do. They may not be assailed and con-
demned, in star-chamber fashion, without
opportunity to defend their honor.

A Girl Acting as Sheriff.

DETROIT, Mich, March A slender, bright
eyed young girl Of seventeen or eighteen years,
hanging tightly to a burly fellow and wandering
about, attracted the attention of the people
about the Michigan Central depot yesterday.
The young woman was Hattie Mckay, daughter
of Sheriff Mckay, of Tuscola county. She was
on her way to jackson prison, and had in her
custody Samuel Woodman. who was sentenced
from Tuscola county for one year for assaulring
his wife with a carving-knife. The sheriff is
very sick at home, and Hattie, since his illness.
has taken up and transacted so much of his bus
mess as it is possible for o woman to do. When
asked if she was not afraid to bring such O
strong and desperate man to prison, she replied:
20 indeed, no; | don't handcuff him, but | have
a revolver in my pocket and | keep him in sight
all the time. Ii he was to start to get away from

tonly giving away the fruits of victory to their
great opponent Still there was no hint Of re-
volt IN Herr Windthorst's language. His atti-
tude then and his movements since have made
it clear that he yields. loyalty If not cheerfully,
to Dr. kopp, and freely acknowledges him to
be the Pope's chosen champion. The bulk
of the clerical members were stunned and
speeches.. They had not yet understood
that DR.. Kopp had received q manda te of leader
ship from Rome, but his authoritative air and
language made them feel that they would prob
ably be making a serious error Il they opposed
him. Many of them protested negatively by abb
staining from voting, but the net result of the
Bishops speech was that the government car
ried its point by the overwhelming majority OF
108 to 13.
Close political observers here draw three com
illusions from this incident: First. that the long
and bitter culturcampf is practically ended; sec
ond, that the Vatican, having seen the German
Chancellor make a fair start toward Canossa,
has resolved TO meet him half way and make his
penance easy; and, third, that in the altered re-
lations hereafter to exist between Rome and Der.
I'm, DIR. kopp is a better representative of the
former than Herr Windthorst, because he is q
more flexible diplomatic, though not. perhaps, 50
trenchant q fighter.

Policemen mistaken for Train-r,obbe

EAST ST. Louis, March 4.-For some time
past police officers have been on the lookout for
two sharpers who had been victimizing people
at the relay depot. At a late hour Tuesday
evening, as the Louisville & Nashville train was
pulling out, two officers saw these men get on
board. They ran after the train. jumped on and
pulled the bell-rope. The train came to a stand
still, and the two officers entered the car with
their r~evolvers in hand. When the passengers
caught sight OF the glistening weapons they
thought that the officers were train-robbers and
the women began to Shrek, while men jumped
from their seats, and endeavored to escape out
of the forward door. The intelligence that
train-robbers were aboard was soon communi-
Gated to the passengers in the forward car, and
the stampede became general. The parties
whom the officers were after took advantage of
the general commotion to escape from the cars.
Two passengers who jumped from the train and
started to run were just about to cross the track,
at the rear end of the train, when the officers
caught sight of them, and, thinking they were
the two men they wanted, gave chase. The
men did not stop until several shots had been
fred after them. When the officers saw they
had not secured the men they were after, they
concluded to place the strangers under arrest,
anyway, supposing they were members of the
gang. The mistake was not discovered for sew
eral hours. Some of the lady passengers suffered
severely from fright.

600 in genuine greenbacks were sold him for
$500. When the dealer attempted to change
the satchel for one filled with worthless paper,
Holland drew his revolver and killed Davis.
On this evidence il ought not to be hard to
arrive at the verdict of murder in the first
degree, with hanging as the penalty. True.
it was one rascal dealing with another, and
the death of Davis was not much loss to soci-
ETY.. BY the same argument it can be replied
that the hanging Of Holland would not be Sc
riously felt by the world at large. A jury sell
dom errs in hanging such fellows.

Rev. w. K. MARSHALL, of Minneapolis, is
the last preacher who reads a daily newspaper
'~1eprous with lust and red with tragedy"
Why do so many ministers of the gospel take
the trouble to read Police Gazettes, when
there are respectable newspapers printed with
in reach? 1t must be because they like them,
or else because they have not brains enough
to make sermons on some other topic than the
false and scandalous abuse of the daily press.

BERLIN, March 1.-The remarkable speech
made by DR.. Kopp, the Bishop of Fulda. during
the Polish debate in the Landtag last Saturday,
continues to be the chief subject of political dis
cussion in Prussia. The chief significance of
the speech arises from the fact that DR. Kopp is
now universally regarded as having succeeded
Herr Windthorst as the mouthpiece and cham
pion of the Vatican in Germany. The speech
was mild in terms and conciliatory and courteous
toward all parties, but 1t was distinctly under

whole matter and manner of his speech ex-

BERLIN. March 1.-The governments spirit
monopoly bill was introduced in the Reichstag
to-day by DR.. Scholtz, Minister of Finance. In
Offering the measure DR.. Scholtz said the
financial condition of the individual states
of the Empire generally justified the
bill. The spirit duties imposed by
France. England, Russia and the United
States yielded two thousand million marks
yearly. The government was ready to consider
any amendments to the bill that members wished
to offer. He declared the spirit monopoly would
prove the least Objectionable form of taxation,
and appealed to the different parties ia the
house to display mutual forbearance and har-
moniously cooperate with the government in an
effort to pass the bill
Herr Huene, on behalf of the Center party,

to a committee.

of the measure.

THE telephone company insists that it is
compelled to withdraw it's business not only
from this city, but from other places in the
State, and notices nave been sent discon-
tinuing the exchanges in several of the
smaller towns. 1t may be accepted as a GER
tainty, we think, that the business will be
practically suspended here; and one reason we
think SO is, that it will be a great deal
cheaper to abandon Indiana for the time than
it will be to have a number of other States
pass three dollar laws. If the company stops
business in Indiana it will be likely to cause
other Legislatures to call a halt in the charla-
tanry of regulating prices by the vote of peo-
pie who don't know a telephone from a coffee

WHILE monuments are being raised to
statesmen and public benefactors the late
Elijah s. Alexander, a prominent business
man in Chicago, though a native of Vermont,
should not be forgotten. When s'bob-tailed"
street-cars, i. g., cars without conductors,
were introduced, he, like many another hon
est man, was justly indignant at the thought
of serving as a conductor in the collection OF
fare whenever he boarded a car. He was a
man of powerful physique, and put this fact
to good service by stationing himself at the
forward end of the car SO as to prevent pas
sengers depositing their fares. When any one
attempted to put his fare in the box he was
gently prevented by Mr.. Alexander, and
something like the following apology offered:
'Ladies and gentlemen, there is no conductor
on this car, consequently we cannot pay our
fares. I beg you will consider yourselves my
guests on this occasion, and when the con-
ductor puts in an appearance I will pay the
fares for the entire party" The good-natured
explanation was readily accepted, and every
passenger in the car became a willing convert
to the cause. After trying almost every ex-
pedient the company was forced to succumb,
and it is said that the war cost it something
like 800, 900. Is there not an Alexander in

LONDON. March 4.-Intimations from official
sources indicate that the Queen has been per-

retirement. She has promised to be present at
three public ceremonies, the laying Of the COR

driving of the first pile for the rew tower bridge
and the opening of the Colonial Exhibition. Her
Majesty, however, decisively declined to hold
court at Buckingham Palace, even for a short
