 PARIS, March 1.-The friends of Gen. Boulanger have resolved to hold an inn mense meeting in Paris to decide upon . future course with regard to their support 0f the ex-war minister in his defensive fight against the government party. It appears, however, to be generally conceded that he must leave the army, whether he will or no, and it is equally plain that he will continue his public career in the chamber of deputies, where, if all the signs are not awry, he will prove to be more annoying to the ministry than he has ever been as an officer of the army and the leader of a powerful, but hitherto comparatively harness, political faction. President Grevy's war upon Bou- langer was the beginning of bis downfall, and it is not without the bounds of proba- bility that N. Carnots willingness to con- demn the general unheard, at the behest of h.s advisers, may get him into hot water. Gen. Boulanger has told his Radical support CTS that he is resolved to neither resign nor apply to be placed on the retired list. Groups of Boulangists collected in the approaches to the chamber of deputies yesterday and sang Bouianger airs They were dispersed by the police.
 The minister of war has ordered Gen. Bou- langer to return to Clermont-F Ferrand If the general refuses to return he will probably be arrested.
 While driving on the Rue St Honore last evening Gen. Boulanger was recognized by the people, who greeted him with shouts of "Vive Boulangerp Some enthusiasts tried to unharness the horses attached to his car riage, with the intention of drawing the vehicle themselves Gen. Boulanger, who appeared to be annoyed by the demonstra- tion, took refuge in house near by. The police dispersed the mob, and the general was enabled to escape by oircuitous route.

He VIII Resign His Position Refor.
 Sanctioning Extended Strikes.
 CHICAGO, March 17.-Chief Arthur declared last night that the strike on the Santa Fe road had been undertaken without his knowl. edge or sanction, and vehemently insisted that in the present condit. on of affairs he would resign his position before he would sanction a strike on this any other road The action of the Santa Fe men, he said, increased the responsibilities of the order, placed it in a bad position, and indicated, moreover an apparent dispositio on the part of the men to ignore his authority.
 Mir. Arthurs chief henchmen also expressed surprise and regret at the developments in the southwest, while Chief Sergeant, of the Firemen's Brotherhood, was compelled to reluctantly admit that he had not been con- suited prior to the Santa Fe strike, and that in his opinion the move was both unwise and impolitic. It was stated at Mir. Arthur's headquarters that, although a score of tele- grams summoning the leading members of the Santa Fe grievance committee to Chicago had been filed during the past twenty -four hours, rot a single reply had been received, and it was not known whether the men addressed intended to respond or not.
 The Burlington's press bureau suspended operations yesterday, assigning as a reason that the system was in full running order, and that all the departments had resumed the even tenor of their way. Appearances around the Burlington building bore out the statement. Quite number of ex-Burlington engineers have filed applications for positions with other roads, and it is said that the Alton will give employment to score or more in the course of the ensuing week.

Salt at Salt Lake.

The manufacture of salt around the shores of Salt Lake, Utah, is an important and growing industry. Nearly all the land adapted to the purpose has been appropriated by settlers. A level meadow is usually selected, few inches above and adjacent to the water of the lake. The surface of the soil is scraped and made level and hard like the floor of brickyard. A storm or high wind will drive the water in from the lake and cover it, and Q slight dam prevents its re. turn. It quickly evaporates and leaves residue of solid salt six tc ten inches deep, that is shoveled into farm wagons aud marketed This salt, owing to the considerable percentage of soda it contains, is mol considered desirable for meat and butter, and does not command the price of purer article, but is in gon' eral use in the Territory.
