ANOTHER MANIFESTO.
Genernal Boulanger Handling the Govern
meut Without Gloves

PARIS, Apr. o.-Oeneral BOulanSer mas
issued manifesto dated Brussels, April
5 He says that in their robust sense the
electors know how to deal with the tissue
of falsehoods and abominable ISLANDERS
against him. The government has eX-
torted from an infatuated parliament con-
cent to prosecute him before a court of
political enemies, not before court of
judges. All acts imputed to him as crimes
were well known when he was appointed
minister of war and therefore his col
leagues were equally guilty. ''All the
violence and calumny in the world" he
says, will fail to turn us from our OBJ
ject, which is TO obtain an honest republic
and the legal exercise of universal suf-
ferage."
A warrant has been issued for the arrest
Of Boulanger the moment he touches
French soil. The open animus of the gov
eminent is producing a revuiSion of pub
lilo feeling in the generals favor.

KANSAS MATTERS AT THE CAPITAL.
WASHINGTON, April 5.-The secretary of
the interior today affirmed the decision of
the general land office in the case Of
Thomas +. Everett VS. Fred T. NJ. Wenie,
involving lots 9, 10, IL and IL, section %,
township PC south, range - west and lots
IA and -, section 80, township % south.
range "A west, Garden City, Kan, land
district. This is branch of the case of
Wenie ct al. VS.. Frost, heretofore disposed
of by the department, and it is there
fore considered in advance of what
would otherwise be its proper time.
Wenie, it appears, was first upon the land,
which lies just outside the city limits of
Dodge City Kan, but his claim was con-
tested by Everett. After filing upon the
land Wenie became city attorney of Dodge
City, but still resided upon his claim.
Everett alleged that Wenie's residence was
necessarily in Dodge City, and conse-
quently the claim had been abandoned.
Later Wenie went upon the road as trav-
cling agent for an insurance company, but
in his absence be kept a tenant upon the
land. He subsequently returned. and has
since made his home upon the tract in
dispute. The secretary holds that aban-
donment of the claim by Wenie has not
been shown, and he therefore affirms the
decision of the general land office allowing
Wenie the property.
