LONDON, Feb. 21.-A dispatch from Rome
this afternoon says that the article which Mr..
Gladstone wrote under the nom de plume CT
"OutidanOs" in the Contemporary Review for
October, 1889, was undoubtedly the principal
cause Of the overthrow of Signor Crispi and
his ministry. The article in question was re-
printed in Italian and widely dis
tributed throughout Italy In it Mr..
! Gladstone pointed out that Italy was n
country which had contriyed in less than a
| quarter of century of peace from the time
/ Of her restored independence TO treble the
/ taxation OF her people To raise the charge OF
! her debt TO a point higher than that of Eng
/ gland and 10 arrive within one or two short
/ PAGES of bankruptcy. The appearance IN the
/ triple alliance of a country SO circumstanced
was, Mr., Gladstone did not scruple TO say,
| no better than n gigantic piece
/ of political tomfOolery. which was 50 strange
is to be grotesque, and which would be ever
| comic IT, in fact, not runous. The recent
! signal defeat of SignOr Crspi IN the popular
| chamber shows. as does the policy of the
new ministry. that the people OF Italy are
/ coming in increasing numbers TO hold the
| opinion to which Mr. Glanstone gave such
| vigorous and convincing expression eighteen
months ago.
VICTORY OVER THE DERyIsHEs.
! The credit of the decisive victory over the
/ deryishes at Tokar belongs largely 10 an ofli-
Ger hitherto comparatively unheard Of in mill
tary affairs, Colonel Holled Smith, Governor
| General of the Red sea for the Khedve Of
Egypt Colonel Smith has had. from the

Soudan. The Khedve is said to be strongly
bent upon extending his Empire to- its former

SUIT OVER NAME.
4 singular suit has been begun by man
named Shulenburg in the German courts.
/ There has of late been a general movement
among the Hebrews engaged IN the pr0fes-
| sions and business 20 discard their distinct
| iyely lIebraic names and adpOt names that
would imply Christian origin. A Jewish
/ lawyer named Meyer Cohen changed
/ his name TO Shulenburg with legal
sanction. A tradesman Of good stand
/ ing who had inherited the name in ques-
/ ton from a long line of respectable ancestors
/ heard OF what Cohen had done and is taking
steps to have the Hebrew compelled to give
up the name The case is a very interesting
/ one. raising as it does the question of a mans
name, which may be common 10 himself and
a number of others.
