morning entered upon the consideration of
the non partisan bill for the board of i'm
provements, to be appointed by the mayor.
In order to facilitate expression the house
went into committee of the whole, and the
discussion was opened. The principal
speeches were made by Democrats, the

licans. ~
AT p. m. the committee of the whole re-
ported the bill back to the house and il
was read the third time.

heavily on the financial condition of
France, especially because it had become a
weapon against religion.

of the Latin union, and also with an eye to
the probable consequences of the new

saving of 64000,G00 francs. The present
time was also oppOrtune fer the conversion

WILLIAM o'BRIEN.
PARIS, Oct. 24.-In an interview today
William o. Brien said he had dissuaded the
prt jectors of the affair from holding the
proposed demonstration at st. LoZiere rail-
way station on the departure of himself
and companions for the United States. Dill
Ion and himself would be guided by cir
cumstances in regard to whether they
would visit Canada. 1t was notlikely that
they would be arrested there but they were
unconcerned about the matter
because their American mission would
then be concluded and their arrest would
merely save them from paying their ia e
home. II judgment was delivered in their
case during their absence from Tipperary
that would constitute grounds for case of
appeal. Balfour had shown great weak
ness in the Harrison case. The news from
America was very favorable as to the sue
cess of their mission which bids fair to sur
pass their highest expectations.
