MAY PLAY TO EMPTY BENCHES.
| LONDON, July 17.-Now that the counsel
for the Parnellites have withdrawn from
the case, it looks as though the Parnell
Commission would play to empty
| benches for the balance of the season.
Long before the doors were thrown open
| yesterday morning the corridors leading
to the chambers where the Commission
holds its sessions were packed with PEG.
pie anxious to gain admission, for it was
generally known that some of the coun-
sci, If not all, would make their adieu to
the court, and an interesting scene was
expected. When Sir Charles Russell and
his colleagues finished their statements
to the court and walked out Of the room,
they were followed by three -fourths of
the spectators present, for whom the fur
ther proceedings of the commission had
iost all interest. Mr.. Parnell is anx-
ious to have his own cross-examination
before the commission done with, so that
he may be left with free hands when the
time comes for him to go to Edin-
burgh to accept the freedom of
that city, which the municipality
rendered him more than a month
ago. But Attorney Webster is
evidently determined that Mr.. Parnell
shall not be left free to pitch into the
commission when no gets to Edinburgh,
and so. having obtained postponement
OF the cross examination, he purposes to
keep Parnell dancing attendance upon
the commission at his own pleasure. 1t
de- r1<,f1 i1-o11- ~
malice on the part of the Attorney-Gen-
eral will be of any avail. The ceremony
at Edinburgh will prove too good an OPP
portunity for caustic arraignment of
the commission by the Parnellites, and
though Mr.. Parnell himself may be le-
gally estOpped from criticising a court
before which he is, by this trick, kept as
a witness, there will be nothing to pre-
vent his giving utterance to his indigna-
ton through any one of the Irish orators
who will accompany him on his trip.
Whatever Mr.. Parnell has to say On that
occasion of the commission, will be said
by Mr.. Justin Mccarthy or Mr.. William
O'Brien, but it will be well understood by
all concerned that though the voice is the
voice OF Jacob the hand will be the hand
of Esau.
THE SOCIALIST CONGRESS.
LONDON, July 17.-Mr. Henry NJ. Hynd.
man, the president of the Social Demo-
cratic Federation of England, is in Paris
taking a prominent part in the delibera-
tons of the Possibilist Congress. He is
hard at work trying to effect a fusion
between the two factions who are hold
ing separate Socialist congresses, but his
prospects for success are by no means
brilliant.
Notwithstanding the honeyed words
with which the EraOcbmap Ia
welcomed the German delegates in the
Marxite Congress Monday, and his ut
terances that the French lion and the
German lamb were all ready to lie down
together, considerable friction has al
ready developed between the German
and the French Socialists now in Paris,
and it is by no means as
clear as NJ. La Fargue would have US
believe that all national prejudices have
been left at home. The refusal of the
Germans to take part in the delibera-
tions of the Possibilists and their OBJ
struction of the efforts of English and
French Socialists to bring about fusion,
occasions considerable feeling against
them.
VISITED THE AMERICAN RIFLEMEN
LONDON, July 1.-THE Duke of Cam.
bridge, Commander in Chief OF the Brit
ish army, paid visit yesterday to the
camp of the American riiemen at VIM
bledon, where he was received by Messrs.
Newton, Marion and Farrow. Mr.. Far
row took pains to show the Duke the |
action of the Springfield rife, in which |
the old soldier manifested considerable |
interest. The Duke expressed a desire |
to bring about a match between the |
and a select British team. |
Farrow took the minor prize in the con-
test for the Albert Cup yesterday.
MILLET'S "ANGELUs."
PARIS, July I'm. Froust, the French |
Minister of Fine Arts, has written let
ter announcing the withdrawal of the
credit upon which he depended for the
purchase of Millet's "Angelus." The
picture now becomes the property Of the
American Art Association.
ANOTHER VICTIM OF THE wHITECHAPEL
FIEND.
LONDON, July 17.-One more murder
has been added to the list credited to
slack the Ripper" in Whitechapel. The
body of a woman evidently one of the
frequenters of the district
was found in Castle alley last night, only
a short distance from where the other
murders were committed. The body was
horribly mutilated and bears undOubted |
evidence of the work of the fiend whose
atrocities in Whitchapel have terrorizec |
the whole district repeatedly. The police |
are as far from q clew to the identity Of
the murderer as ever, and seem perfectly |
The excitement throughout |
Whitechapel, where the news of the dis
coyery of a fresh victim of the mysteri- |
Gus Ripper has spread with lightning |,
rapidlty, is at fever heat.
THE TRIAL OF GENERAL BoULANGER.
PARIS, July 1.-THE trial of General |
Boulanger has been definitely fixed for |
August 10, and NM. Rochefort and Dillon |
as well as Boulanger have been sum-
moned to appear and place themselves |
under the jurisdiction of the court within
ten days. In the event of their failure to
do so within twenty days, they are |
warned that they will be outlawed and |
all their property in France will be sum-
marily confiscated and will remain so |
until they surrender themselves
to be dealt with as the law
directs. The charge upon which General
Boulanger is to be tried has been formu-
lated, and is that of instigating munich
palities against the government. Unless
Boulanger presents himself for trial on
the date fixed and makes a defense, judg-
ment will be given against him at once,
and from this judgment there will be no
appeal.
