That commissioners visit France and
other European countries where corn
was but little used and introduce il

INTRODUCED corn into France, as the
French Chamber of Deputies has
passed q bill imposing a tax of three
francs per hundred weight on Indian
corn imported from foreign countries.
In favor Of the tariff on corn M. Viger,
. country deputy, sald that one great
argument In favor ot free corn was
that 1t forms part OF the food oil horses,
of fowls. and 10 also used by the peo-
pie OF some parts Of France. In the
south oi France some Ipdisn corn 10

important that the French iarmers
should be protected by putting duty
on the foreign article. The COW
keepers OF Paris, he stated, protest
against the passvge Of the bill. We
feed, they said, fifty thousand cows,
and We use sixty thousand hundred
weights Of Indian corn, ''but what"

With the places changed, had this
speech been made in an American
Congress, NJ. Vigcr would have been
heralded throughout the country as an
enthusiastic tariff protectionlst. On
euS othSA 1icc, ui. LoCkIUy, IdTl5
deputy, declared that the bill was but
a decoy to lead the farmers astray on
more important matters. He admitted
that farmers were suffering, but said
that their condition requires other
remedies, and among them cheaper
transportation to their markets. He
opposed the bill on economical
grounds. II had been shown that, be-
sides the cow keepers of Paris, Indian
corn was largely fed to the omnibus
horses Of that city. In the German
invasion 1t was the principal food OF the
cavalry. He instanced the fact that
when the Uhlans were ravaging the
outskirts OF Paris the nosebags OF their
horses contained cakes made OF Indian
corn sufficient TO last them many days,
while the French cavalry had not oats
enough, weight for weight, to last
them twenty-iour hours.
Notwithstanding the speech of NJ.
Lockroy, the bill passed The chamber
by vote OF 343 yeas against 1863 nays.
1t Is said the bill will pass the Senate
as a government measure, in which
party politics is largely concerned. In
this matter 1t looks as if the tariff con.
test had beon transferred to European
nations.

this week, if the present understanding
is carried out. Quay will introduce his
amended resolution tomorrow, which

senate. When it comes up for consider

the federal election bill in the list OF
measures that shall be considered after
the tariff bill is disposed Of This is

length and considerable bitterness, be-
tween the two wings of the Republican
majority: Quay, and Aldrich, who is
acting with him, believe the resolution
will be passed by large majority, with
no amendment.

China Protests Against the Negotiat ton
Thereof.
WASHINGTON, August 1.-THE Chinese
minister in this city has received infor-
nation that some American, claiming to
represent the Corean government, is
seeking to negotiate loan in it's behalf
with capitalists in the United States.
The minister deems it his duty to make
public the fact that the negotiation of
such loan, at this time, is not approved
by the Chinese government, to which
that OF Corea, he says, is tributary.
Corea, he says, is a poor country with
small resources and not in condition to
pledge any of its revenues as security
for foreign loan. 1t is already indebted
to the Chinese government in a consid-
cradle amount, advanced to it's king a
number of years ago. The minister
says the Chinese government would not
allow the customs or other revenues of
Corea to be appropriated to foreign
loan, SO long as its own indebtedness is
unliouidated.

PASSED SPURIOUS MONEY,
An Attorney and Constable Arrested
for Cause.

FRESNO, CAL, August 17.-Thomas
Wells, attorney-at-law, and Fred
Walker, constable. were arrested at
Delano this morning on the charge of
passing spurious money. Both are resi-
dents of DeIano. They visited Fresno
yesterday, and while there passed about
$l40 in Canadian bank notes. The notes
were of the denomination of twenty dol
lars each, on the Bank
of Prince Edward Island, Char
lottetown, and were made in 1872.
One of the leading banks discounted one
OF the notes, while other banks rejected
them, claiming that the bank on which
they were drawn was long since defunct.
Constable Walker claims to have come
into possession of the notes at Buffalo,
N. Y, during recent visit to that city,
and says he believed them to be worth
full value. He relieves Mr.. Wells of
any connection with himself in circulat-
ing the notes. Walker purchased a
watch, giving in payments $50 of the
notes. He passed two of the notes at
saloons, and sold one to the Fresno
Loan and Savings Bank. Both men are
said to have borne good regulations.

SAN FRANCISCO, August 17.-About
1873 o'clock this morning, Samuel
Jacobson, who lives on the corner of
California and Webster streets, was
shot in the abdomen when near his res
idence, by two masked men. Mr..
jacobson had been in town and was re-
turning home. He was on the last car
but one and got off at Webster street.
As he stepped toward the sidewalk, he
was met by two masked men who told
him to throw up his hands. The words
were hardly uttered, and Mr.. jacobson
had not time to obey before a shot was
fired by one of the men, the bullet en-
tering his abdomen. As soon as the
shot was fired, both men made their
escape in the darkness. 1t is supposed
that the object of the assault was rob-
berry, and that the shot was the result
OF nervousness on the part of the would
be robbers.
The police have been working on the
case all day, and say they do not believe
the shooting was done by footpads.
Frank Hecox, janitor at the Cooper
medical institute, says he passed the
corner of California and Webster streets
not ten minutes before the shooting was
done. He saw two men crouching in
the shade of Jacobson's house, and
heard the shot fired.
Jacobson is dangerously wounded and
his injuries may prove fatal.
