With bow Foreman Clarke took from

the vast audience-a hush so profound that

Possibility of Serious Complications
Between France and England,
OTTAWA, Ont, Special-Judging from the
reports which are reaching here from Paris,
there appears to be strong reason for be-
lieving that the appeals for protection the
French Canadians have made to France are
likely to be productive of results unlocked
for in political circles in Canada. The
French government. it is understood has
determined on looking into the question
fully as to how far the terms upon which
Canada was ceded to Great Britain by France
have been carried out, and whether there
has been any Infringement upon the con-
cessions made to the French-speaking pop
ulation of Canada at the time the treaty
was signed. In view of the possible in
tervention of France which could but
result in serious international compi.
cations between that republic and Great
Britain. Lord Salisbury has requested to
be furnished with full information, setting
forth the questions in dispute between the
Dominion government and the French
Canadian people, the equity of such de-
mands as may have been set up and what
measures have been taken to adopt them,
The political atmosphere in Canada is any,
thing but reassuring just now and an open
rupture between the two nationalities is
not beyond the range of possibility.

The Silcott InvestigatingC Committee
Makes Report to Congress.
WASHINGTON, Special Telegram,
The report of the Silcott select committee
gives detailed statement of the assets and
liabilities of the office on Dec. 5. The
shortage is stated at $40. 7OS96. 1t states
that the committee has not yet made suffi-
Gent investigation of the matter of dis
counts and notes. Many notes, the COM
mittee believe, were forged to cover defalca-
ton already existing. 1t also says that the
committee cannot too severely condemn
the manner in which the sergeant-at-a
conducted the affairs of his Office. Mr..
Payson offered a resolution continuing the
committee and giving it enlarged powers,
on which long debate sprung up, after
which a resolution was adopted extending
the powers of the select committee so that
it may report to the house its conclusions
as to the effect of any deficiency of cash in
the office of the sergeant-at-arms. During
the discussion Mr.. Picker was probably
most interested of all members not actually
taking part in the debate. He was first on
one side of the house then on the other,
and conversing with the various leaders
who were trying to arrange the money mat
ters of the house. Mr.. Picker is interested
in the deposit he had made with Silcott.
Representative Carter is of the opinion that
there is a way out of the difficulty. He
tried to introduce resolution to-day, but
Speaker Reed thought it was time the
house should adjourn and saw only Maj.
Mckinley, who made the necessary motion.
Monday Mr.. Carter will introduce his reso-
luton instructing the new sergeant-at-arms
to take charge of all the property formerly
in Leedoms care and make all settlements
with his predecessor.

SlSSETONS SIGNING,
Over One Half Of the Required Nesrn-
Der of SIGNATURES Obtained.

Over One Half Of the Required Num-
Der OF Signatures Obtained.
Browns VALLEY, Special Telegram,
The Sissetons are signing, the first man
to touch the pen being the venerable and
honored scout, Old Simon. Before taking
the initiative step the venerable old man
made touching speech, recalling past
events, and called upon the Indians to fol-
low him in signing, and in particular did
he appeal to his lifelong friend and COM
panion, Grbriel Renville, who has from the
start opposed the measure. He stated that
he considered the opening of the reserva-
ton a good thing for his people, and asked
them to sign. To Renville he said:
We have long been friends and brothers.
We have sworn to die for each other if nec-
essary. We have never been separated in
any way. Come with me now, as this is
good for our people. Let us sign. Let us
be the first to lead the way to that which
will do our people good.
Stepping forward, he touched the pen, and
the ice was broken. Rapidly following him
came Swift Bear, Wocondadula and others,
and in an hour and half the number had
reached sixty five. At this time pause in
the signing was made, so that rations might
be issued. After the rations were is
sued signing recommended, and when
it stopped eighty-nine signatures
had been received, over one-half enough,
as only 100 are required. Great excitement
prevails among the Indians, and those OPP
posing the measure still contend that the
required number cannot be secured, while
the friends of the project are confident Of
success. The feeling among those who
have traded for years with the Indians and
are well acquainted with their ways is that
the signing of sufficient number to carry
the measure through is an assured fact.
Now that the signing has commenced,
Browns Valley contains happy lot ofpeo-
pie tonight, and well they may be happy,
for the opening Of this tract to settlement
means boom for this town, as this is the
only accessible point by which to reach the
coveted land.
