PARIS, Sept. 24-The full reports received
yesterday make better showing for the
French republic than seemed possible Sun
day night. These indicate that there will
be a slightly smaller Republican majority
than in the last chamber, but 1t will be
vastly more compact and less open to fac
tional foolishness and intrigue. For the
first time since Ferry's ministry went I'M
der it seems now possible to have major
tty in the chamber which will be actually,
as well as nominally, Republican, and
which will prefer France to faction.
General Boulanger's failure Is complete.
He may have forty members in the new
chamber nomipally elected as MS follow
ers. but they will be worse than useless as
an Independent body, and as they can get
no terms whatever from the Royalists and
as Boulanger must cease to exist as a
political entity they will gradually melt
;.waV. Neither Bouianger nor ROchefort
would be admitted to the new chamber
even If they were elected III the ballotage,
which is unlikely.
All the members of the cabinet have re-
turned to Paris. A ministerial council
which will be presided oyer by President
Carnot will be held at the klysee tomor
low The new chamber of deputies will
be summoned to meet in November. 1t is
now estimated that the supporters of the
Republicans ana siEty-five members OF the
Left.
LONDON, Sept. 24-In an interview to-
day General Bolanger said he had no hope
of his party having a majority in the new
chamber of deputies. He had not, how
eyer, lost faith in the future. The govern
ment, he said, had every where stolen
votes with naven-iike characteristics. The
Republican majority would prove I'M
manageable. he said, and the country
would soon be calling him TO its aid.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The rush for the
Inauguration ceremonies is unprecedented.
Col Wright, the chairman of the committee
ON public comfort, has secured quarters for
17,70s visitors, and he has on his books unas-
signed 5000.
''0ur heaviest task will come next month"
said Col Wright, 'swhen we shall have to
provide quarters for individuals instead Of
clubs and companies. There seems to be an
impression that we have no more room, but
this is erroneous. We can easily accommodate
every one who applies. The greatest diff
Guilty this COMMITTEES has is providing quarters
for one or two people,"
When an application is received, rooms are
selected and messenger sent to ascertain if
they are suitable Finding them so, the APP
plicant is notified that proper quarters have
been secured, and is asked to forward de
posit. Upon its receipt it is paid to the lessee
of the rooms, the receipt which is taken being

London, was fellow passenger on the out

During the voyage Barnes was thrown
much in L. Caron's company, and soon came
TO regard him rs coniilance man. Ise Caron
had heard Of Barnes good fortune, and tried
to ingratiate himself with Barnes, who de-
nouncei him. l. Caroa did not take the
affront as an insult, but tried to laugh the
matter oif, treating Mr.. Barnes during the
rest OF the journey as a man who thoroughly
understood him.
Barnes describes Ie Caroil, or Beach, as an
entertaining conveTSatioaalist. and one of the
''srnoothestn of rascals. This statement as to
the date OF lie Carons departure from Amer

of Miss Beach, sister of lie Caron, who stated
that her brother arrived in England shortly
after the death OF their father, in November

New YORK, Feb. 12-Ex-Mayor Abram
S. Hewitt is much inccnsed at the statement
made in the speech OF Mr. William Mcdowell
at the Jersey City Tilden club dinner on Sat
urday that he Hewitt) betrayed Mr.. Tilden
in the handling of the electoral commission
bill and misrepresented Mr.. Tildcn's views on
the subject. In an interview with a United
Press reporter Mr. Hewitt characterized Mr..
McDowells remarks as tissue of ridiculous
lies.
''They are" he continued, "the coinage of
the brain Of man who could not tell the
truth; man whose statements need not be
denied since no one would believe him.
He attributed Mr. MeDowelis attack on
him to the fact that be Hewitt refused to
give him pass on the Greenwood Lake road.
Mr.. Hewitt expressed the belief that Mr. Nc
Doweil was trying to get square with hin.
The e1-nayor then went On TO say that hc-
Dowell was of little account; that he was
connected with few local railroads and
never was a confitlant of the late Mr.. Tilden.
There were many speeches made on Satnr-
day night,n said Mr.. Hewitt, Ain which the
campaign of 1876 and Mr.. Tilden were re-
ferTed to. Charles A. Dana ard Henry Wat
terson both spoke on the subject. If Mr.. Til
den thought that he was ever betrayed by me
would he not have told theml or did he re-
serve the confidence entirely for Mr.. Nc
Dowells On the contrary, in foot note to
the famous Manton Marble letter Of Aug. s
Mr.. Tilden testified to his appreciation of my
taithfulness and services. AIr. Tilden and
myself were friends until the day of his death,
which does not bear out the assertion that he

cation was still further mixed to-day by a
notice Of the Michigan Central that it would
meet the Grand Trunk cut to 20 cents on all
classes of grain, Chicago to New York, next
Friday. 1t will be remembered that the
Grand Trunk gave notice that it would ad-
vance all rates to the 25 cent basis on July
"a. This notice superseded its notice of re-
duction to 20 cenrs The joint committee de.
cided in New York, on Wednesday, that on
July % the rates of 20 cents on corn and q
cents on wheat should go into effect. Ac-
cording to this, all central traffic and trunk
line roads, except the Grand Trunk and
Michigan Central, will put the joint commit
tee rates into effect July % The Grand
Trunk will raise all the grain rates to %
cents July "A, meantime charging 20 cents.
and after July 16 the Michigan Central will
charge 90 cents on all classes of grain. OF
course this paradoxcal state of affairs can
not exist, and unless the joint committee
takes prompt action the 90 cent rate on all
classes of grain will rule as soon after July
20 as the roads can issue legal tariff.

Manager MelIen.s Threat.

CHICAGO, July 13.-The lack of harmony in
the Interstate Commerce Railway associa-
tion was illustrated to-day at the meeting of
the general managers of lines in the trans-
Missouri division. A hot discussion over
competitive traffic from the far west brought
out direct threat from General Man
ager Mellen, of the Union Pacific
to cut loose from The "Gentcmen's s
agreement, 'and do as he individually pleased.
The Union Pacific wanted the Denver & Rio
Grande west of the Rocky mountains forced
to conform to the rules OF the association. 1t
was shown by the Denver & Rio Grande
representative that they had only joined the
combination on being assured exemption
from obedience to the rules beyond the
Rockies. Manager Mellen thereupon claimed
similar privileges for the Union Pacific, and,
being refused, made the wrathful threat of
withdrawing. He was ridiculed by those
present Nevertheless, there was an evi-
dent fear that president Adams, the superior
officer Of Mr.. Mellon, is only waiting for a
pretext to secede with the Union Pacific.
Some relief from TINS feeling was obtained
when later the Union Pacific unexpectedly
agreed TO restoration of the passenger rate
from Colorado points to Chicago. Ten days
notice of an advance from S26 to S3O65, old
figures was given Immediately.

The Senatorial Investigation.

CHICAGO, July 13.-Special Telegram to
THE BEE. I-Senators Cullom, Hiscock, Har-
ris and Reagan, of the United States COM
mIttee on interstate commerce, held ses-
sion to-day in the Grand Pacific. The COM
mttee was instructed by the senate to inquire
whether any railroad line in the United
States was owned or controlled by the Grand
Trunk of Canada aud, in general, what
effect Canadian competition had on lines in
the United States. Traffic Manager Hanna
ford, of the Northern Pacific testified
that Canadian competition harmed lines in
the United States but little, and Traffic Man
ager Reeves, of the Chicago & Grand Trunk,
said that his line lives up implicitly to the
requirements of the interstate commerce
act. General Counsel Cody, of the North
western road, was sure Canadian lines car
red traffic at lower rates than those in the
United States, there being nothing to pre-
vent them cutting rates. He believed con-
gress should exercise authority over all
traffic originating or terminating in the
United States. 4..GL
