Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
BERLIN, Jure 29.-Count Kalnoky's
speech expressing confidence in the in
tentions of the Servian regency, has
tended to ailay the alarm which Emperor
Francis Joseph's speech produced. The
cordial references of both to Bulgaria are
regarded as an answer to the Czar's
toast to the Prince of Montenegro. Notes
were exchanged between Austria, Ger
many, Italy and England on the question
of recognizing Prince Ferdinand. While
there is no desire to press the matter, no
objection will be offered. Turkeys deci-
zion depends upon that Of the
other powers, but apart from
Russia's opposition, the recognition Of
Ferdinand can hardly become a fat dc-
complt, while Prince Bismark shows go
little interest in Bulgaria's fate.
The Silesian Gazette goes to the length
of asserting that even should war result
from the occupation of Bulgaria, and the
demand for the evacuation OF Bosnia by
Austria, the occupation of Bosnia and
Herzegovina was made with Germany's
C Jnsent.
The Cologne Gazette, referring to Tur-
keys rejection of Ruseia's overtures for
the convention to ensure the Turkish
neutrality in case of war, dwells on the
expediency of Turkey joining the Triple
Alliance which, it esys, is further
check on the Russian aggressive schemes.
The West Prussian papers report that
the Russian troops along the German
frontier are being strongly reinforced.
The National Zeitung, in an article
headed England and Her Rivals" ably
reflects the feeling here in the failure of
the Egyptian conversion scheme. 1t
argues that, since Russia is pushing her
frontier ever eastward into Central Asia,
the security of the Suez Canal has be-
come most important, for England, who
is less inclined than ever to evacuate
Egypt. or share her dominion there with
any other power. Therefore, all the
materials are ready to hand for Franco.

ing her to become an informal member
of the Central European Peace League.

THERE seems to be no doubt that the
woman to whose custody the girl Gates

THE FRENCH SITUATION.
An UprOar I'm the Chamber OF
Deputies.

PARIS, June 29.-In the Chamber of
Deputies today M. Pichon questioned the
Government concerning letter which a
journalist named Woestyne wrote to
Meyer, who was recently sentenced to
imprisonment for bis connection with
the Credit Mobilier frauds, suggesting
The forging OF documents duplicating
The Government in those frauds. He
asked whether that was only an attempt
made in this case to discredit the Repub-
licans. M. Thevenot, Minister of JUS
tice, replied that the ten letters which
were seized in Meyers house and their
e ,ntents testified to the shamelessness of
the Boulangist party. De Caseagnac
declared that the letters were police for
geries. Thevenot answered this charge
by saying that Meyer had admitted the
letters to be genuine. He also mentioned
the name OF an anti Republican leader
who had visited him. Here there
was violent interruption by
the Right, and De Cassagnac, in
an excited manner, accused Thevenot Of
being Meyers accomplice. This led to
another uproar. De Cassagnac was
censured by the President and expelled
from the Chamber. Many members OF
the Right followed him out, while the
Left cheered the Presidents decision.
Thevenot announced that it was the
intention of the Government to prose.
cute the offenders. Then M. Herrissee,
on behalf of the Boulangists, and Gaze
noy, on behalf of the Royalists, having
denounced the intrigues of the Chambe
without any dissenting voices, advised
the Government to adopt the proper
measures for their repression.

LONDON, June 29.-The Standard, COM
menting on the resolutions adopted by
the shareholders of the Delagoa Bay
Railway Company, yesterday, blames
them for imprudence. 1t urges that it
will be useless to force Portugal to fulfill
her concessions to the com pany, and
thinks Portugal should merely be COM
PEELED to return to the company the
money it expended, and pay indemnity
for the damage it caused. 1t says Lisbon
must be blockaded, if necessary, to obtain
justice.
The Times is in favor of forcing Portu.
gal to fulfill the concession.
The report received by the Chronicle
from Durham that the Portuguese decree,
cancelling the concession, has been re-
scinded, is not confirmed.
A dispatch from Delagoa Bay reports a
serious state of affairs there, arising from
the railway troubles. A portion of the
railway has been destroyed by Portuguese.

casioned by the barbaric nightly parade
of the Salvation Army, the city authori-
ties ought to take steps to compel those
people to dispense with their startling
noises. Pounding on big base drum in
the crowded streets is constant menace
to life and limb. Horses are frightened,
and a serious disaster may occur at any
time. Last night lady sitting
in buggy in front of Bonebrake & Bry-
sons building was placed in imminent
peril by the sudden outbreak OF the Sal
vationists. The horse reared and
plunged, and had it not been caught by
bystanders there would have been a
catastrophe. These people have no right
to imperil the public safety by their
barbarous noises and displays in the
public streets. They make travesty
of religion the panoply to cover a
nuisance which would not be tolerated
for a moment under any other guise.

The SelIuride Bank Robbers.

DENVER, June PA special from
Durango, Col, says that three of the
Selluride bank robbers have been recog-
nized, and it is now almost certain that
they will be captured. Their names are
Tom Mccarthy, Matt. Warner and the
young brother of Billy Madden, and
their residence is at Nance. McCar-
thy and Warner have been engaged at
placer mining near Nance, and have also
been in the horse business there, where
they have quite large number.
They left the Nance on Friday
last, taking their horses to Do
lores, where they left them, saying
that they expected to round up more of
them, since which time they have not
been seen. Billy Madden is supposed
to be implicated, as letter from him to
his brother has been captured by sheriff
WATSON, in which he tells where he will
ioin him with fresh horses, and "stay
with him." Billy Madden has been
placed under arrest by Sheriff WATSON to
prevent him from carrying out his
promise. The fourth member of the
gang is not yet known.

Great Change for tn. Better.

The city of Los Angeles, as compared
with this time last year, presents many
changes for the better. To begin with.
our streets have been greatly improved.
A twelvemonth ago there were very few
thoroughfares in which one could drive
with any degree of satisfaction. Today
the city is one of the best paved on the
American continent, and this line of
improvement is being steadily advanced.
We are at last improving our parks, and
rents have been reduced to reasonable
figure. Pursuing very poor policy,
last year our landlords scarcely knew
what to ask for their properties; now
they are amenable to common sense.
The great abundance of all the neces-
saries OF life makes the price of fruits
and vegetables, meat and pork, exceed
ingly moderate. The inducements to
live here have thus been amazingly
increased, our exquisite climate remain
ing exactly what it was. While the boom
is thing of the past the conditions
which made the "boom" are exactly
what they were. The came lines of
transcontinental railways are still here,
with others in the immediate perspec.
tive; while other great railway projects,
with Los Angeles as their objective
point, are being advanced in strong
hands. In addition, while one can live
in the metropolis of Southern California
at much reduced figures, the newcomer
can buy nowhere, with half good judg-
ment, without making great deal OF
money in very short time. During the
boom the settler was invited neither by
low rents nor low prices of realty, and
even the necessaries of life were at
maximum figures. The climate remain
ing at its old standard of perfection, our
transportation facilities both by land and
water having been improved in the in
terim, the future of the semi-tropic
region of the United States being as as.
sured as that of the Riviera of Southern
Europe, this is pre-eminently the time
both for the speculator and the
valetudinary and the lover Of an unsp-
preached climate to put in an appear.
ance in this section. There will be
profit of all kinds in the venture.
