Union Pacific Snow Sheds Burned.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., July Is. - special
tnlegram to THE HERALD. Three big
Union Pacific snow sheds between this
city and Laramie, sixty miles westward,
have been mysteriously fired and totally
destroyed by flames. The officials attrib-
ute the origin Of the fires to sparks from
passing engines, but it is almost a public
secret that the structures have been burned
by brakemen in self-defense
In the past five months seven of these
operatives have been killed at snow sheds
which are old and sag in the centre. They
are on heavy grades, and the men were
compelled to stoop while passing through
them. The Brakemen Brotherhood petit
toned for the removal of the sheds
or the privilege of remaining in
the cabooses oli engines. No at
tention was paid to their request.
The four remaining sheds will probably be
torn down by the company.

N. Waddington on Ronlaneer.

LONDON, July An. Waddington, the
French ambassador here, gave a banquet
this evening to prominent members of the
French colony. In a speech after the ban
quet the ambassador declared against
BOulangism. He denied that the Boulang-
ist programme had its parallel in America,
because, he said, in America the President
IS elected, not by universal suffrage, but by
delegates of the states. Moreover, in
America there was practically no standing
army, and a coup d etat, therefore, was
impossible. The triumph of Boulanger
must end in disaster for France. He did
not believe that Boulanger would succeed,
but nevertheless he considered it neses-
sary for his countrymen to rally around
Carnot in defense of the republic.

BEGGS' PETITION.
The Senior Guardian Of Camp 20
Creates a Sensation.
THE CRIME OF AN OREGON FARMER
He Murders His Tenants Wife and Child-The
Defense League-The Eastern Yacht
Club -Criminally Assaulted.

CHICAGO, July 15.-Somewhat of a sensa-'
tional move was made in the Cronin case
to-day. John Beggs, the imprisoned senior
guardian of Camp 20, Clan-na-Gael,
filed a new petition for writ of habeas
corpus, giving as reason why he should
be set at liberty that he has been jailed and
indicted solely in the hope that he would
thus be forced to turned states evidences:
that the testimony expected of him, he als
leges, has no foundation in fact. He says that
he was Illegally imprisoned and secreted
from his friends, that Immediately pre-
ceding he was taken before the states at
torney who tried to induce him to make
certain statements; the facts so desired
not being within Beggs' knowledge, and that
in consequence the states attorney said, in
substance "By the newspapers you are
condemned already. The only way, or the
best way out of it is to stand with us,'
meaning thereby to stand with the press
association: and further stating in the
conversation: IF you will accept employ
ment from us, we will pay you for it,
Beggs responded in substance: IF you
mean by standing with you that shall
give you testimony by which any person or
persons might be convicted of the murder
of DR.. Cronin, 1 cannot accept your en-
L
facts which would tend to convict, or even
cast suspicion upon any Ierson."
Soon after this an indictment was
returned, and the petition adds
that since there have been most
persistent and determined efforts
on the part of the police officers and
states attorneys Office to compel the re-
lator to divulged certain alleged facts stated
in the anonymous letter received by the
states attorney regarding certain alleged
action in Camp 20 on DIR. Cronins case.
These facts the relator has failed to give for
the reason that they do not exist.
The states attorney having stated that
he did not desire at the present time to
make public his case, Beggs offers to have
the hearing take place privately Judge
Horton will hear arguments on the peti
ton tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-The report is
current tonight among diplomatic and
official people that Secretary Blaine has
offered his resignation, to take effect Sep
TENDER l next. The reasons given for this
step are that the duties of the state depart
ment are so exacting that Blaine's health,
which has not been of the very best lately,
has been undermined, and that by the ad-
vice of his physicians, he has concluded to
take a much needed rest. 1t is also stated
that it is not unlikely that he may be sent
abroad.
John A Kasson, who was one of the
commissioners to Berlin to negotiate the
Samoan treaty, is spoken of as the success
sor to Mr.. Blaine.
Just before the President feft for Deer
Park he said TO friend that further action
in regard to changes in the diplomatic and
consular services would be deferred for at
least two months, and this would seem to
explain the anticipated change.
