NEW YORK. March Gilt is now, for the first
time, positively asserted by the police that
Eyraud, the French murderer, has been in this
city and stopped at different hotels under vari-
Gus aliases. He finally located for two
weeks al the Hotel America on Irving
place under the name of Award.
About March 8, he fed owing s46
board bill and several $40 notes which he had
borrowed from guests whose confidence he had
gained by his affablc manner. He said he was 4
merchant in Guyamas. Mexico, and spoke the
Spanish language so huently and was So well
yersed in busineSSInatterS that no one doubted
his assertion.
About March he disappeared and the pro-
prietors still retain the trunk which has since
been everhauled by the French detectives and
Inspector Byrnes' men with the hope Of finding
some eliminating evidence contained Letters

The New York police here persistently denied
that they had any knowledge of the case or were
working on it until to-day, when Sergeant Bidd

PARIS, Idaho, March 21.-[Special tele-
gram to THE HERALD. The court granted
a new trial in the case of the territory
against George Sheehy.
The jury in the Quarselle case is now
selected after considerable trouble, taking
two days to fill the panel. j. P. Hawley,
for the prosecution, opened the case to
them in a speech of fifteen minutes, in
forming them what the prosecution was
going to prove, and the following witnesses
were examined to-day for the prosecution:
Lars Jensen, Martinsen and Clara Nelson,
Sarah Johnson, Mary, John and Nielsen
Peterson, and the evidence so far is not
very favorable to the defendant, Quarselle.
The expert testimony OF DIR. G.. A. Hoover
and Prof. Pershing will come up to-mor-
row in regard to strychnine being found in
Annie Quarselle's stomach, as the defend
ant claims she took strychnine, but bruises
were found on her neck, and there is no
doubt but she died through being strangled.

The Pan-American Conference.

WASHINGTON, March 81. - The Inter
national American conference to-day re-
ceived the report of the communication on
the Pacific ocean. The committee
recommended that the nations lying
along the western coast of the
American continent and represented
in this conference, agree to subsidize one
or more lines of steamships which shall
make regular voyages between the port of
San Francisco and that of Valparaiso in
the republic of Chill, and intermediate
points, said vessels to make bi-monthly
round trips at least to each port, the
steamships to be tirst-class in
every respect and not less than
four thousand tons capacity the yes
sels' owners to be prohibited from entering
into any arrangements or combination to
increase PASSENGER or freight rates. AS
compensation for this service the subsidy
as provided be paid annually by the sub
scribing nations in proportion to their pop
ulation. The total amount, however, is
not to exceed 30 cents per gross registered
ton or each 900 miles sailed
The conference to-day adopted the re-
port of the committee on communication on

Congress and Lard.

WASHINGTON, March Representative
Higgins ., from the committee on agricul-
ture, to-day reported fayorably to the
House, with an amendment, the Conger
bill defining lard" and imposing a tax upon
and regulating the manufacture, ETC., of
compound lard. The report accompanying
the bill says the main features of the bill
are similar to the oleomargarine law
which. the committee says, has given
general satisfaction. The report concludes
with the statement that the compound
lard trade as carried on is a stupendous
commercial fraud which it IS the duty of
Congress to suppress.
Much interest is excited at the postoffice
department by the action of William
Dudley Foulke of Indiana, in sending out
Inquiries to presidential postoffioes where
changes have occurred since the 4th of
March, 1889, especially to postmasters who
have been removed. In speaking of the
matter day First Assistant Postmaster
Clarkson said: 'We are receiving
letters from newly appointed postnasters
who have been addressed in this way The
inquiries sent out, in every instance that
[ have seen, show that the case has been
Oreiudiced and the change made assumed
to be wrong. It is evidently an effort to
get statements from removed and disap-
pointed officers for political uses, and some
Of the letters show an intention to try and
induce the new postmasters to make state
ments in defense where no defense is
needed. No political capital can be made
put of these changes. The President made
no removals except for cause, delinquency,
inefficienly of service or violation of law"

THE RESIGNATION
OF Prince Bismarck is a Very
Serious Event,
SERIOUS FOR THE GERMAN EMPIRE
And Serious for All EurOpe-Such is the
Opinion of the Due de BrOglie-
The Emperor
Special to THE acknowledgements Dispatch.l

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.
PARIS, March 21.-T BY cable to the N. Y.
Herald. The Due de Broglie, member of
Academic Franchise, and former minister,
received the Herald correspondent in his
hotel in Rue Solferino. "Certainly'' said
he, "the resignation of Prince Bismarck
is very serious event, serious for the
German empire and serious for all Europe
He has been, as it were, at once, the
builder and keystone of the imperial arch,
and his withdrawal into private life must
cause deep concern among all who wish to
see that each stand firm. 1t will be hard to
find man capable of putting on the dipIo-
matte armor laid aside by the iron chan
cellor.'
cit is plain that in view of the critical
condition OF Europe, any abrupt change in
the policy of a nation so important as Ger
many must be regarded with apprehen-
sion. Bismarck, who was formerly our
most implacable foe, had become of late our
strongest ally IN preserving tranquility on
the continent Now that his restraining
influence will no longer be felt in the i'm
perial c0unsels, it is impossible to say
what difficulties and com plicatiOnS may
enSue. AS long as the great chancellor
was at the helm, Europe had at least the
satisfaction of knowing what to expect,
but with the young Emperor suddenly an
nouncing, that he will be his own master,
and that the chancellor as well as other
subjects, must bow before his autocratic
will. for that is practically what has hap
pened Europe can only look forward
anxiously to coming events. l would not

is disposed to pursue a warlike policy, but
he is very much disposed, so far as 1 am
able to judge by his acts, to have his own
way. Being young, high spirited and full
of illusions, it is more than probable that
he will make mistakes.
unfortunately, although it is perfe lily
natural for an ambitious young man to

had to overcome. He had high regard
Tor the government; he was mighty sorry
he had tried to break it up, but if the gen
tlemen were going to carry pension leglS-
lation to its legitimate conclusion, Congress
had better stop and have an accounting.
1t looked to him as if the country would
have to let the Grand Army Of the repub-
lie take the government.
Breckenridge, of Kentucky, expressed
himself in favor of liberal pension sys-
TEN, but was opposed to the abuse of that
system and opposed to making the pension
bureau a great political machine.
Grosvenor said the minority had sud
denly become wonderfully patriotic, and if
it could only destroy the unpatriotic record
1t had always made it would be wonder
fully benefited. The gentleman from New
York, Spinola, said the Democratic party
had run up the appropriations from
dollar OF that money that had been appro-
priated under any general pension bill ever
passed by the Democratic party OF ever
signed by Democratic President, eX-
cept that increasing the pensions of
widows. With tlis eX 1eption every dol
lar appropriated was due TO the patriotism
OF the Republican party. Referring to
Cleveland's veto Of the dependent pension
bill, he said that when Cleveland was re
nominated no man had shouted louder in
his behalf than the man from Indiana, and
yet Cleveland, who had hurled his vetoes
in the face of the soldiers, was the most
popular Democrat in the United States and
three years hence would drag the Demo
cratic party his car wheels. The Demo
Gratis were not to be credited with the fact
that today there were 10000 Union
soldiers in the poorhouse who would have
been comfortable under the bill which
Cleveland had vetoed.
Tarsney inquired whether the Republi-
cans intended to pass the dependent pen
sion bill vetoed by Cleveland.
Grosvenor replied they would not.
They would pass a Republican bill which
would not contain pauper feature; il
would have nothing in it to degrade then
manhood.
In the course of further remarksSSpinol
stated that the great bulk of the unior
army was made up from the Democratic
legions of the north. This caused sarcas
tic laugh on the Republican side.
After further debate the committee rose
and the bill passed.
A bill was passed appropriating S25 zoo
to enable the secretary of war to purchase
$500 tents for the use of the people driver
from their homes by the floods in Arkan
sas, Mississippi and Louisiana The Hous,

Bismarck's Strong Hand.

Especial to THE Observation-Disclosures Cable1
BERLIN, March 21.-The delay in notitica-
ton by the OGieidl Gazette and the foreign
embassies of the appointment of General
Won Caprivi is due to the necessity of OBJ
tanning the formal consent of the independ-
ent Prussian states before such an an
nouncement can properly be made. The
question of obtaining the agreement of
Hanover, Wurtenburg, Bavaria, etc. upon
any one other than Prince Bismarck has
been the most potent reason for the delay
of the eX-chancellor'S resignation from time
to time. 1t las been Bismarck's strong
hand and good sense that held them to-
gether from the first but now prob
ably their common interests are
so well established that any i'm
imperial chancellor who is not positively
Objectionable would be accepted by them.
In truth Bismarcks peculiar methods in
colonial schemes and bitter antagonlsm to
the growing republican spirit of Europe
have been regarded some time as indicating
that his days of usefulness are pretty well
over. This does not prevent the deepest
regret at his retiring and considerable
doubt as to the immediate results. The
army is decidedly pleased at the appoint
ment of General Won Caprivi as imperial
chancellor and Count Won Moltke is I'M
pressed by the Kaiser's sense of compli-
ment implied in the appointment of mill
tary man to this high post.
The new regime will not have any imme-
date noticeable effect on the foreign policy
of Germany upon which the Kaiser and
Prince Bismarck are fully agreed ana in
which Bismarck has always shown the
greatest capacity even when he was not
right but was merely seeking Germany's
ACKNOWLEDGMENT. Considerable change,
however, will be made in the home policy
of the government, and this change will be
extremely welcome to many unstinted ad-
mirers of Bismarck. They feel that in
home affairs he has outl-ved his time
politically and that the country is ripe for
radical changes, to which he, with his very
narrow understanding of such matters
could never consent

rARIs, March 2l.-The Marquis of Salisbury
moved in the house of lords to day that the re-
port of the Parnen commission be approved
The Parnellites congratulated themselves upon
being found not guilty of certain charges, but
there was evidence to show that the Parnellites
In parliament were ready to make use of the

BRINE, Hear, Hear and let go the restrained
rriminality as their political necessities re-
puired How could the country assent to COM
uniting the government of Ireland to
men thus linked with criminaity and
immortality? The commission had laid
bare and indicated the spirit of those aspiring
governors of ireland. Here were men whose
political objects were Systematically pursued by
means leading TO outrage and murder, and their
political career ought to warn the country be-
iorehand what would be the fate of the loyal adj
herants of the crown if ever these criminal con
spirators got control OF Ireland.
Baron Hershell attacked the one-Sided
character of SaIiSbury'S speech in referring only
TO the charges on which the Parnellites were
found guilty, and emitting to mention the graver
charges on which they were acquitted. The
ferdict of public opinion was on the side of the
q Parnell1teS now, and when the story Of the
Episode was fully written on the pages CT his
tory, the praise and blame would not be awarded
by Salisbury, the condemnation would not rest
upon the Parnellites, but would concentrate
hpon their accuSerS.
Lord Kimberly said the whole case was piv-
pied upon the forgeries and it was only just to
secord that the charges based thereon had
collapsed.
Lord Spencer said he could not support the
motion without also recording the great wrong
inflicted upon Parnell. The old methods govern
ing Ireland had failed and the only remedy was
10 throw upon Irishmen the responsibility OF
managing their own affairs.
Lord Roseberry severely censured the govern
ment for offering no PREPARATION to Parneu and
for taking no steps to punish the Times. Ht
concluded with an eloquent reproach and warn
ing TO the ariStocracy saying all history gave
evidence that an aristocracy separated from the
people was doomed. Salisbury's motion was
adopted without division.

The Prevailiug Agricultural Depression.

WASHINGTON, March 21.-The prevailing
depression in American agriculture is
treated by Statistician Dodge in the March
report of the department of agriculture.
The prevailing low prices are noted and
the feeling of encouragement in the rural
circles throughout the world is indicated.
1t has been especially severe in Great
Britain and is the subject of complaint, dis
cussion and official investigation in Ger
many, France, Italy and other countries.
1t is present in monarchies and republics,
under divers currencies and economic SyS-
tens, but it is less severe here than in
Dther countries. The main cause of low
prices is referred to the inexorable law of
supply and demand. Corn and wheat and
other staples are cheap because of over
production. immigration has increased
the population 100000 in ten years.
Inter continental areas have been carved
into farms, free to native and foreigners.
thus opening millions of acres to cuitlva-
lion.
Dodge says that while there is an excess
of production of few staples. like wheat.
etc, there is an insufficient supply of many
pther necessary products and the total
absence of scores of others which should
: furnish profitable employment to rural
labor There is too narrow range of
cropping: diyersification is essential to ag-

Of millions of dollars that the sweat of
