Developments; and,
Whereas the regulations recently issued by
the honorable Commissioners Of the District of

DIR. Coues and Madame Blavatsky.

DR.. Elliott Coues of this city in an inter-
view in Chicago yesterday said that at a
convention of the theosophists, with whom
he is associated. held in that city Tuesday, res
olutions were adopted eKpelling the noted high
priestess of theosophy, Madame Blavatsky, and
her New York representative. William Q. Judge.
The action was taken. SO DIR. Coues says. be-
cause the madame and Mr.. Judge are inspiring
attacks upon DIR. Coues in the press. 1t seems,
says a Chicago dispatch, that. although an
avowed theosophist, DIR. Coues some time ago
publicly denounced Madame Blayatsky as a
'fakir." At the convention of her adherents
held in Chicago in April DIR. Coues was de-
clared expelled. The doctor is professor of

New York, though in the lead, has not yet won

liable to be returned to fourth. and the Cleveland
