In view of postponement on account of storm, the managers are to be congratulated on it's financial success. The program was full ly carried out, the display in every de- partment was fine, in fact has hardly ever been excelled. The balloon ascen- sion was nicely done and everybody seemed we'll satisfied with the day's out ing. To one who has been regular att tendant of these fairs from the first, the improvement in quality of stock and ex- hibits in almost every line is noticeable, and one can but conclude that it has been quite an incentive and, in this much, has been of use to our people, to say nothing about the social part, which is much prized We have much encouragement for the future of the Union fair. So long as our city cousins are willing to liberal- ly patronize us, we mill move on, and try to give all we advertise and the moneys worth every time.

PAhIs, July 14.-M. De Roulde, NJ
Laguerre, and other Boulangists, members
of the chamber of deputies, assembled on the
place DE La Concorde, before the statue of
Strasburg to-day, intending to hold meet
ing. crowd of several thousand people
had gathered and De Roulde was about to
begin speech, when Commissary Clement
forced his way through the crowd and for
bade him to speak. De Roulde protested,
but the policeman was obduratc. De Roulde
began aflixing floral wreaths to the. railing
around the statue, at the same time leading
the crowd in shouts of "Vive Boulanger."
Cemcntl tried to arrest De Roulde, but the
latter resisted stoutly, saying he had only
cheered for BoulanSer. He refused to ac-
company the officer. The latter thereupon
seized him, but the crowd came to De
Roulde's rescue and took him away from
the officer. Clement was being roughly
handled when large body OF police ap-
peared and charged the mob. The commits
sary was rescued and u large number of
persons arrested. Laguerre and De Roulde
during the scrimmage jumped into cab and
were driven to the Office of La Press, where
the mob gathered and indulged in noisy
demonstrations. The police cleared the
streets and made many more arrests. The
incident has caused sensation throughout
the city and dangerous developments are

THE FRENCH PARLIAMENT.
The Present stormy session VIII BE
Prolonged n Few DAYS Longer.

ICopm1Oht 1889 bp James Gordon Bennett.l
PARIS, July a. New York Herald Cable
Special TO TnE BEE. 1T was hoped that
Saturday would see the close Of the parla-
mentary session. IL was not so, however,
for the chamber of deputies thought fit
TO prolong its existence few days
longer. The last moments have been
marked by incidents which will but slightly
add TO the glory it hss achieved, On Friday
fstcuffs were exchanged with remarkable
deliberation, and tho president of the coun
ell explained that officials of the republic
in the east could receive presents great
or small without compromising the charac-
ter or dignity OF their Office. On Saturday
NJ. Herisse, a BoulaugisJ deputy, was ex.
PEELED. If the session continues many days
longer 1t will be impossible to forctell what
may happen. Amid all tins confusion, how.
ever, the chamber passed one law which Is
really important-the bill relative TO plural
candidates.. According to the reading OF
this bill no one person is allowed to offer
himself as q candidate in more than one elec'
toral district, and every candidate is required
to name the place for which he stands before
the date is fixed for election In the even,
of more than ono declaration OF
this kind being made, the first
only can be taken account OF
and il all tho declarations are drawn up on
the same date, none are valid. The bills
posted by any candidate who has disregarded
these conditions may be torn down with i'm
punity, and furthermore, a heavy fine may
he inflicted on those who have either signed
or caused the notices to be posted, and also
against those who have assisted in distribut-
ing tickets. Lastly, the ballots record
ing the vote for any candidate ineligible
in accordance with the law are null
aud void, and are uot 10 be included
in the count of votes. Thus, even il n can
didate who Is Ineligible under the bill Oh
tains an overwhelming majority his CLAIMS
will be disregarded, and the next on the list
declared elected. Hitherto plural candi-
dates have been considered perfectly legiti-
mate in France. 1t was in consequence
this election in large numbers of the depart
ments that Theirs was made president of tho
republic Gambetta also showed that he in
tended to provoke demonstration of II sim
iler nature in his favor. At the present mo-
ment, however, these plural candidates.
are regarded as dangerous by the
republican party, which considers them a
kind of indirect plebiscite contrary TO the
spirit of tho constitution. 1t is doubtless be-

being returned by several departments, but
that it would be far more difficult for him
to influence the electors to vote for
candidates who simply made use OF
his name. Very probably this opinion
is based upon solid foundation. Many
electors who would have voted for General
Boulanger with their eyes shut, without
recurring from him any definite programme,
will probably be less easily satisfied with
regard to any radical or monarchist candi-
date who declares that he stands or falls

ROUGHs RIOT.
An Italian Flag Hung Out Angers a
French Mob,

PARIS July 14.-The hundreth anniversary
of the fall of the Dastie was celebrated by Il
public meeting and fete in Paris and
throughout the provinces. Transparencies
bearing representations of General Boulan
ger were displayed in the win
dows of the league Of patriots
and at other Boulangist resorts. These
devices called forth u few hootings from
passers-by. A band of roughs to-day gath
cred at Imodas cafe, on the Rue Royale, and
demanded that flag be hoisted The Italian
flag was displayed, which so enraged the
mob that they tore it down and stamped IL
IN the mud. They then made an attack on
the cafe and completely wrecked the place.
The fireworks at the fetes this evening were
somewhat marred by rain, but the place De
La Concorde, the Champs Elysee,
the Bois de Boulogne, the Eiffel
tower and the Troeders palace
were a blaze of light. at midnight thou
sands of persons thronged the Boise de Bou
logne and there was no signs of any abate-
ment of the fun.

UnrccOgniZable Mass.
LEADvILLE, Col, July 14.-[Special Tele-
gram to The BEE. About o'clock this
morning flames were noticed coming from a
row of buildings located near the Midland
freight depot. The building was occupied
by an Italian fruit dealer commonly known
as Italy Joen In one of the rooms of his
residence he some time ago placed
AZ image as near like the divin-
ity AS it was supposed he could
procure. This he has worshiped with the
zeal and belief the true Christian puts in his
invisible deity. Three candles surrounded
the image, and were kept constantly lighted
both day and night. Yesterday afternoon he
left the house, having left his three candles
lit in front of the idol, and it is supposed he
had not returned home But, upon investi-
cation, his body was found in the rear room
of the cottage which was separated from the
front room by q thin partition. A bed was
pushed against the partition in the rear room
of the cottage and beside the bed on the
floor the body of the man was found. He
was lying on his back, his arms stretched
above his head, and his fingers clinched to
the palm of his hand, as il he had
died in an agony both lingering and terrible.
There were but two teeth in his head his
face being burned into an unrecognizable
mass, the hair being completely burned from
his head.
The sight was sickening. II Is supposed that
one of the candles set fire to the thin par
tition, and, the old man having fallen asleep,
was burned TO death. The wife and children
of another party who roomed next to Joe,
children being carried from the flames in an
unconscious condition.

Arrival of the Sioux Commits sion e,
That ApeuCy

That Agency.
CHEYENNE AGENCY, Oak. (via Pierre
Dak) July 14.-LSpecial Telegram to The
Bee THE commission came over to this
agency from Pierre this morning, arriving
here about 10 o'clock. The Indians being
nearly all in from the camps, were con-
gregaIed IN the annuity building, where they
were addressed by Major Warner in long
speech, in which he fully explained the
salient features of the bill, showing where
its provisions affected this particular agency
and reservation. The allotment features
were dwelt upon largely. The splendid op-
portunity offered the Indian to engage in
farming was illustrated IN the amount of
stock, the number Of implements
and the continued issue of ra-
tions until they became self-supporting
The major Is one of the finished orators of
the land, and is getting able to address any
Indian audience with the same felicity with
which he talks TO white men. This council
was merely preliminary, held, as at all the
agencies, for introduction purposes and to
give some impetus to the native element to
discuss the bill as laid down by the ex-
FOUNDER OF the commission.
Careful inquiry here among the Indians
and half-breeds verifes the predictions made
in these dispatches that there will be much
bitter opposition here There are here on
this agency three farming DISTRICTS loca ted
on the Missouri, the Cheyenne and the Bad
rivers, One of these districts is favorable,
the other two are in opposition just now.
A large number of Indians are present
from the Pine Ridge and Rosebud agencies,
and their influence may be great in deciding z
the fate Of the negotiations here.
Major Warner goes to Pierre this morning
to attend to some business of his own which
is pressing him closely. 1t will not require
him here just at present, as Governor Foster
and General Crook remain to give close
attention to the matter The missionaries III
the camp are opposed to the bill, and this
may show that the hint given in last week s
dispatches was not so very far wrong.
