Paris Wants a HnhN show.

The project Of a baby show in Paris has
been revived. Ii may be remembered that
when. about a year ago, this enteII'risinS
scheme WAS taken in hand, the government
snuired il out with very little ceremony. In
official circles il was feared that, although
the public might be greatly amused and
much money turned by 50 novel an exhibit
zion. il would not be beneficial to baby fieSii.
Now French hahies are hecomins very
precious in the ewes of French legislators. be-
cause the supply is said to be steadily dimin-
ishing. and if any baby should lose Its life by
being stared at by a frivolous crowd. the
shock would he communicated TO the country
through the medium of the population Stats
tics Ii IS felt that France can not afford 20
waste a single baby. To these cbjectiors the
advocates of a Contours de BebesS reply
that il Is in the interest of the population re

show, which. Of course, would lead TO more
shows of the same kind. from which move

would cause the baby market TO become as

tains 1000 or 8. 900 words and embraces a
general review of the case The points
upon which Judge Hinton dissents from
the opinion of the other members Of the
court are: First-The court erred in dis
charging Juror Larke, who had expressed
views as to what sort of circumstantial evi
dence he would require to convict Sec
ond-The court erred in admitting as eyi.

asserts that it is not proved that the priS
oner had anything to do with it or AM
knowledge of it. Third-The corpus de-

that the motive for it had been shown.
Judge Hinton also inclnes strongly to the

medicines and got sick every time she used
them, but witness did not infer from this
that her mistress was habitually doing

tried the door of the room and then went

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1.-An important
feature has entered into the controversy
between the green glass manufacturers
and the blowers over the abolition of the
apprentice system. On Monday night
meetings of the local assemblies of glass
blowers were held at Clayton, Millville,
Salem. Woodbury., WilIiamstown and
GlassbOro. n. j., where it was decided that
they would not strike, as ordered by the eX
ecutive board of District Assembly No. 149.
Knights OF Labor. but would surrender
their charters rather than do so. These
blowers are working with apprentices, and
under reduction i'll wages of per cent.
according to an agreement entered into
with the manufacturers some weeks ago.
The respective charters OF the six assem-
bles were sent to the general secretary,
Charles Ii. Litchman. at the general head
quarters. this city, yesterday. Ii is stated
that these assemblies propose forming a
new association. aud in the future they say
that they will not allow any one to work in
a New Jersey factory who has violated
agreements made at the c0inprom. sc set
tlement last month with the employers. On
the other hand, the officers of District AS
semDly 149 declare that these blowers, who
number between 500 aud 500 will be ostra-
ciZed and biack-listed by all members of the
league in good standing. and will not be al
lowed to work outside The limits Of their
towns.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1.-Maj. Gen. o.
o. Howard. commanding the department of
the Pacific, has submitted his annual report
to the adjutant general for the information
of the lieutenant general commanding the
army of the United States. Referring to
the means of defense against possible inva-
sion of the Pacific coast. Gen. Howard
says:
The forts are not in order, they are not
manned with guns of proper caliber. and
what Is worse, there are no guns Of the right
size and power in the whole country TO bring
here. and there should be a plant on this coast
and speedy preparation for making suitable
guns and other means Of defense ought not
to be delayed. Shells could easily be thrown
from the neighborhood OF the Cliff house out
side the harbor to every part of San Fran
cisco and, without exceeding modern ranges,
could be dropped into Oakland. | therefore
recommend that money be appropriated so
that good torpedo defe nse may be planted,
that fleet torpedo boats be constructed and
that the guns now around the harbor be
properly mounted and that two f1oat.Ig bat
teries be built and anchored as suggested by
the board of inspectors appointed under the
act of congress of March 3, 1885.

IRON aud steel ~ orkers.

P1TTsBuRG, Dec. 1.-The voting returns
regarding whether or not the Amalgamated
Iron and Steel workers shall as body join
the Knights of Labor are coming into the
headquarters rapidly. Secretary Martin re-
fuses to say what the indications of the re-
turns are. but from another reliable source.
however, it was learned that there is so far
a preponderating majority against con-
nection with the Knights of Labor. A large
number OF influential lodges have voted al
most to man against any such move. Sew
eral of the smaller lodges are inclined to
identify themselves with the Knights Of
Labor so that to use their own expression,
"the conflict against capital can be more
formidable ON the part of labor" While
the great body of the members seem to be
opposed to merging the Amalgamated as
sociaton in the Knights of Labor. the move
ment to organize in both unions is still
going on. While these men do not wish to
abandon the independent union, they wish
also to have the advantages derived from
being in the Knights of Labor.

BATON ROUGE, La, Dec. 1.-Goy. Nc
Emery will tomorrow prOmulgate procla-
nation offering reward of $1,000 for the
arrest OF the persons who. during the night
of the 2Sth of November, murdered Maj.
John Mckee and colored woman in the
employ of Hon. S. j. WitkowSki, repre-
sentative from the parish of West Carroll,
and set fire and totally destroyed the Lat
ter's house. by which both bodies were con-
sumed to ashes, Witkowski escaping from
the grasp of the outlaws under the cover OF
night. The States this evening published
an interview with Newand Holiness resi-
dent Of Chicot county. Ark, adjoining West
Carroll parish. in regard to the matter.
Holmes stated that the whole affair was the
result of personal feeling between Simon
Witkowski and the farmers in that section.
Witkowski, he said. came into West Carroll
with bis brother Julius just before the late
war. They were
ISRAELlTE PEDDLERS
from Poland. They would make their
headquarters at Davis plantation, and
eventually began to feel much at home.
Davis died just before the close of the war,
and julius married Mrs. Davis, from whom
he was divorced few years afterwards. A
daughter of Mrs. Davis married Simon, the
hero of the present case. The two brothers
at once absorbed the interest of the Davis
plantation and established their country
store near Caledonia Then they began
systematic plans for securing confessed
judgments from parties who addressed
themselves to them for advances on
crops in lieu of chattel mortgages
which are not recognized in Louisiana. By
these means they secured powerful political
influence by having these parties more or
less obligated to them. The scenes in West
Carroll were but the result of the uprising
OF the people against the wrongs under
which they have suffered for the past twenty
years. There could be no legal remedy for
those poor people as the WitkoWsks could
pack juries and other branches of the local
judiciary to their satisfaction. In regard to
Maj. Mckee. the agent and bookkeeper who
was killed. it was stated that he was the
creature of the WitkOwskis, having been
appointed justice of the peace through their
influence to aid them in their plans. Mr..
Holmes says that the dispatches in the New
Orleans papers about the people being OUT
laws and desperadops and about mob ly-
ing in wait for So, 900 alleged to be expected
by Witkowski are all bosh and nonsense.
