CHAPTER vI.-THE ESCAPE.

Summer came, the fair season opened, and
the merchants of Irkoutsk brought stuffs.
utensils and tea, while from the shores of
the Arctic Ocean, from the borders OF the
Sea of Okhotsk and even from Kamtchatks
came fur-hunters loaded with spoils and
searchers for the tusks of the walrus and
mammoth.
Yegor Semenoff took advantage Of the OPP
portunity offered to purchase provisions and
garments indispensable to the execution Of
his project.
But, though he acted with the utmost
prudence, the chief Of police Yermsc, who
watched all his actions with the evident de-
sire of taking him in fault, knew that the
governors secretary had made considerable
purchases.
Further, the authorization of marriage de-
manded of the Car had arrived and had
passed through the hands Of the chief OF
police, who could not comprehend why the
young couple did not hasten to profit by it.
What could be their motive except to free
themselves by fight The former Iprav.

THE EAST MISSISSIPPI FLOOD.
The Water Higher Than Ever known
Before and Worse to Come.

A special bulletin from the signal Office to-
day says:
The rain storm Of the past four days in the
lower Mississippi valley has practically ended,
SO that the water dangerous to the lower valley
is now in the Mississippi or its tributaries
There are no encouraging prospects for any
portion Of the lower Mississippi valley. The
stage Of the water at New Orleans is now
three-tenths foot above highest ever known
and last night touched sixtenths above.
The river has fallen slightly at Cairo, but the
sharp rises at St Louis, aud particularly Gin
clnnati, Louisville aud Nashville, makeit evil
dent that the recession at Cairo is only tempo
rary and that thence southwark the river must
continue at its present high stage for
at least 8 week. Although the stage of
water at Cairo and Helena are about four feet
below extreme foods in the past, yet the pros
poets are very decided ct even these places the
greatest food ever known will obtain during
the next seven days. At vicksburg the river Is
IL below the great food Of 1882, but the very
high stage Of water in the lower Arkansas rem
ders it certain that there will be no relief at
vicksburg unless indeed the whole country
should be flooded.
The warnings given BY the signal Office sew
ersi days since that all stock and other movable
property in the entire lower Mississippi valley
should be removed TO localities sbove extreme
Hood level are reiterated. Ordinary prudence
demands, under present prospects,, that ex-
treme Aood conditions should evsryWhsre be

DOWN GOES TIRARD.
The Entire French Cabinet Resign To.
day.

PARIS, March 14-The adverse action Of the
senate Yesterday on Prime Minister Tirards
demand for the adoption of the order of the
day when the matter of the commercial treaty
with Turkey was brought up, has caused the
downfall Of the entire ministry. An interpella-
ton was submitted during yesterdays sitting
regarding the treaty. and in response to this M
Tirard moved the adoption of the order of the
day.
The senate by majority of seven refused to
adopt NJ. Tirard's motion, which was tanta-
mount to refusal to vote confidence in the
government. N. Tirard then rendered his
resignation to President Carnot, but the presi-
dent persuaded hum TO remain in office until
after Easter.
cabinet meeting was held today to discuss
the situation, at which M. Iirard reconsidered
his determination to remain. and after the
meeting was over he went to the palace of the
Elysee, President Carnots residence, and ten
dered the resignation Of all the members Of the
cabinet
M. de Freycinet, minister Of war in M.
Tirard's cabinet, will probably form Q new
ministry. 1t is rumored that Constans, who
recently resigned from the ministry of the in
terror. and NJ. Ridot will have portfolios in the
new ministry. 1t is understood that Admiral
Barley, minister Of marine; N. Faye, minister
of agriculture, and nj. Fallio, minister of pub
lie instruction, will remain in the cabinet

THE HOUSE.

Mr.. Perkins ARK stated that an erroneous
impression had gone out that according to the
provisions of the Oklahoma bill passed ysster-
day the Cherokee outlet had been declared
open TO settlement under the homestead laws.
Under the provisions of the bill the Cherokee
outlet was not open to settlement The state
ment should have been that the public land
strlp-not the Cherokee outlst-had been
opened tosettle ment
The Cherokee outlet, he said, was embraced
within the limits of the new territory and was
not open to settlement under the homestead
law
The House then went into the committee Of
the whole-Mr. Allen Mich in the chsir-on

The Emery bill was taken up and, having
been amended by reducing the appropriation.t0

mendation.

The next bill was one authorizing the Presi-
dent to retire Gen. ]. c. Fremont with the rank

OPIUM SMUGGLER CAUGHT.
He Hung 81, 800 to q Floating Log
and Pulled Out for Liberty.

San Francisco, CAL, March 1A-Customs
officers early yesterday morning captured
1850 worth of opium that William Bourne
was trying to smuggle to the city. The inspec-
tor who was on duty near the Patrero saw q
boat shoot suddenly out Of the darkness and
pass the vessel on which he was stationed
The officer hailed the boatmaD who replied that
he had coal, bat refused to come alongside
The ofhcer thsn opened fire, but the boat dis
appeared. Search was made and the boatman
found He said he had dumped the coal over
board as he feared arrest for stealing il
Search was made and a log was found near
shore to which four sacks were hung by ropes
The sacks contained opium worth 81, 500. It is
thought Bourne received the opium from
