renewed their accusations that the en-
peror's projects favor masters at the ex-
pense of the men.
The Reichsdnzeiger says that the emperor
hoped that the house would seriously back
his project so as to enable the reforms to
come into force this year. He is chagrined
to find that the delays of procedure are so
great that there will be no chance to apply
the law before January next. The Reich
sdnEeiger is sanguine in predicting even
that date. The commission OF the reich
stag on postal telegraph reform is examin-
ing the accusations made by group Of
journalists against the telegraph
officials acting ''proprio motu." IL is
hardly credible bat it is true
that sub-officials some times refuse to ac-
cept dispatches inimical TO the govern
ment and suppress phrases CT mutilate
expressions which they deem are hostile
to the authorities. The director of tele-
graphs admits the existence of a private
circular, issued recently, revoking the
former regulations and authorizing en-
ployes to exercise their judgment in re-
fusing kilograms and to cut out displeas-
ing phrases. The Berlin press has suffered
less than the provincial press, but the
former has joined in a vigorous opposition
to the censorship. The commission has
censured the director and the latter's or
ders have either been withdrawn or so
modified as to leave the press freedom.
Empress frederick has agreed to open
the international art exhibition. Despite
the Paris incident, several leading French
artists will send studies to the exhibition.
The emperor will go to Alsace-Lorraine at
the end OF the month. He will make a
tour of the fortresses. The prefecture of
Metz is preparing to give him reception.

row. Officials are reticent and journalists
ere unable to secure definite confirmation
or denial.
At the American legation nothing can be
learned. Minister Porter has heard nothing
except what he has gained from the papers.
In well informed circles the prevail
ing opinion, as nearly as one can gather,
Is that the premier will not proceed to ex-
trcmities at this iuncture. 1t is argued
that whatever beneficial effect such q dis
play of vigor might have toward increas-
ing the popularity OF the present cabinet
must be only temporary, inasmuch as IL
would leave the New Orleans incident
farther from settlement than ever. while
the American government would doubt
less be so irritated by the Italian policy rs
to make any settlement impossible.
While the prevailing opinion thus is
that Marquis di Rudini will not take the
rash step reported to be in contemplation,
the report will continue to show some
vitality. Word comes from Paris that
the Journal deS DebdiS this morning prints
a dispatch from its Rome correspondent,
reasoning that the Italian government had
really threatened to give the U. S. minis
ter his passports unless Secretary Blaine
replied by tomorrow. But it is believed
here that the correspondent of the Dcbats
was simply repeating the report in circu-
lation here Saturday. and had no further
authority therefor

What win Italy Do?

New YORK, April l3.-A Washington
special to the Commercial Aduertiser says:
"The situation has not improved as regards
the relations between the United States
and Italy, and whether it occurs now or
later on, the recall OF Mr.. Porter and a
complete rupture of diplomatic relations
is likely. Failing to get satisfaction Italy
will have to make some demonstration of
displeasure. What she has already done
might be a sufficient demonstration if
made after we failed to comply with her
demands, but her minister having been
recalled before the offense, she must seek
some other expression OF displeasure after
the offense to make complete the diplo-
matte rupture. This is the least she can
do, having already done so much, and it
is the most she can afford TO do in the
face of the complication of European af-
fairs and the poverty of her treasury"

A DARK PROPHECY.
France Must Fight Germany but Bank
ruptcy Is Inevitable.

ruptcy Is Inevitable.
PARIS, April 13.-Apropos of the future
increase of the effective force of the
French army and of the minister of wars
demand on the budget committee of the
chamber of deputies for further appropria-
tions, Senator Barthelmy st. Hilaire, ex-
minister of foreign affairs, said to the As
sociated Press correspondent:
at becomes more and more evident
that France is on the high road to bank
ruptcy. We often hear it said that France
is one Of the richest countries in Europe
This is quite true. So, too, we would call
a man rich who hadan income Of mil ion
france year; but supposet he spent each
year 100000 francs, what would his
wealth amount to under such circum-
stances? And yet this is lust what France
is doing and has been doing for very
long time. The upshot of the whole thing
must be that we shall have TO repudiate
our debt as We did in the first
revolution and start afresh. l greatly
admire the magnificent manner in
which the United States has gone on
paying of It's tremendous debt
contracted during the gigantic
evil war. We ought to initiate in
modest way the American example.
But several circumstances oppose this. In
the first place, the wastefulness of our
great departments of government is some
thing frightful. While it cannot be said
that there is any outright stealing of the
public fund, the extravaganza is tfemen-
dous, and no government dares incur tho
anger OF the politicians in cleaning out
this HIgean stable.
"Than, again, our military system is so
expensive and keeps on growing more so
every day that it seems an almost hope
less task to try to stop hissuicidal policy.
We czSnot reduce our army, for there
standShat Alsace-Lorraine difficulty still
undecided. What an objectionable sin it
was for Germany TO take those provinces.
We would willingly have paid many more
millions OF francs could we have preserved
our territory intact. But France will
never abandon Alsace-L Lorraine without a
struggle, which, when it comes, will be a
deadly one. France must win or be ef-
faced from the map of Europe like Poland.
She will fight to the last man, for she will
see that her very existence as a nation de-
pends on victory. And. if she comes out
the victor in what an exhausted state she
will probably be left. Then the ordinary
financial situation, rendered still more op-
pressive by the increased expenditures OF
the supreme struggle, will weigh down
upon the bleeding nation and bankruptcy
will be inevitable"

A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
Five Young Men Dr"wn-d in the River Mt
St Louis.

St LOuis.
Sr LOUIS, April 13.-About noon today
five boys of party of twelve crossing the
river in skiff from the foot OF Spruce-st.
to the Pittsburg dyke on the Illinois side
were drowned in the eddy. which was
very strong at that place at that time.
The boys were rowing across the river,
which Is very much agitated just now by
the high wind. The waves were rocking
the skiff from side to side, when suddenly
their skiff struck the dangerous eddy and
began to whirl around and around. Sew
eral people on tho ferryboat Russell
Hinckley saw the dangerous position in
which the boys were and called out for
them to be careful. The warning had
scarcely been uttered when the skiff was
seen to turn and keel up at one end by
the horritied witnesses, leaving the occu-
pants struggling in the water.
The youths who could swim struck out
for the Illinois shore and three of them
were rescued by the crew on the landing
ferry boat. The scene was q most exciting
one, and the floundering, struggling and
drowning youths presented heartrend-
ing picture to the beholders. Every effort
was made to save the almost exhausted
boys, but before assistance could be
effectually rendered five of them had sunk
to rise no more. The passengers of the
ferry, who heard and saw the occurrence,
declare they can never forget a sight SO
terrible.
One of the most peculiar and at the
same time touching scenes of the calami-
ty was the drowning of John Bourg and
his faithful dog, the two disappearing to-
gether with the mans arms tightly clasped
around the dogs neck. The animal,
seemingly the first to realize the danger.
had laped into the water and bad started
for shore, but remembering its master,
turned about and sought him out among
the drowning boys. Bourg threw his
arms about the dogs neck and both disap-
peared below the water.
Following is list of the drowned:
JOHN BoURG, IT,, aged twenty.
JOHN MCMAHON, aged twenty.
ADAM BRUST, aged sixteen.
JACK O'CONN0R, aged twenty.four.
ROBERT GUION, aged twenty-five.

No Attempt Has Been made TO Steal
Barnum's RemainG
BRIDGEPoRT, Conn, April lS-The ru-
mors sent out from here TO the effect that
an attempt has been made TO steal the re-
mains of the late p. T. Barnum is simply
a fake. Ever since the burial there have
been special policemen on guard at the
grave and every precaution has been
taken against even the stealing of afiower
from the tomb. The vault in which the
great Snowman is buried is covered with
heavy stone weighing several tons, which
would be impossible to remove except
with a heavy derrick. The tomb is being
watched and no chance will be gwen to
desecrate the grave of the deceased for
some time to come.
The will of the old Snowman has been
admitted to probate and there will be no
contest over it Mrs. Barnum and the
other heirs have all signed a waiver and
the document will take the usual course
without opposition. Dr. /. de yer Warner
and Charles r. Brothwell have been
named by the probate court as appraisers.
These men had been named in this con-
nection by the deceased previous to his
death.
