A mysterious D1sappearance.

W1LL1MANTIC, March 21.-John J. Frank lin, about 55 years old. a well known carpen- ter in South Coventry, left home for New Haven last Friday morning and has not been heard of since. He left his team at stable in Willimantic, saying he would return Fri- day night. It is learned tlsat Mir. Franklin finished his business in New Haven and started for the station, but there is no luther trace of him. He was 8 sober man and only had money enough to transact business for the trip, and no reason for the disappear ance can be assigned, except perhaps tenn
 porary alteration of mind. He was repair ing house here, had dozen men at work for him, and was in a great hurry to return.
 An active search for him is in progress.
 A later despatch says that his friends have searched New Haven for him, and also Worcester, where it was thought he might have gone, but have found no trace of him. The police have discovered that man uns der arrest in Lawrence, M ass., for stealing Q trunk is Charles Lincoln, wanted ip Nebras- ka, where he was senteTsced two life impris- l onment for murder and escaped.

In the Chamber of Deputies.

: PARIS, March 21.-In the chamber of deputies to day M. Laur in the discussion of an interpolation on the copper crisis de- manded that the penal code provision against monopolies be enforced. He accused the Rothschilds of causing the crisis and of lead- ing an international plot against the French market, and urged the necessity of an inquiry into the crisis. N. Rouvier, minister of finance, ridiculed NJ. Lsurs speech as 8 romance beneath the dig nifty of serious assembly. The allegation against the Rothschilds, he said, WAS unde- served and its refutation could be left to the public's good sense. The Compton d'Es- compte would have suspended but for the assistance rendered it. The Comptoir d'Es- compte deserved the governments solicitude. If any loss occurred in connection with the first loan it would be borne by the capitalists and not by the Bank of France. The second advance would be made by the Bank of France and fifty capitalists. The Compton d'Escompte's doors, therefore, would not be closed. The old Compton d'Escompte ought to be liquidated and re- placed by an analogous institution, SO neces- sary was it to small and medium branches of trade
