GEN. souLANaER SUICIDES.
The Ambitious and Disappointed
Erenchman Gives Up.

FrenchmAn Gives Up.
General Boulanger committed sui
eide on the soth In Brussels on the tomb
of Mime. De Bonnemain, who died recent
ly in that city.
Mme. De Bonuemain has been known -
tho mistress Of tho dead general. She 40
companied him to England after his flight
from France, and early In July last she
was dangerously Ill In Brussels, suffering
from consumption. A Paris physician
went expressly In order to treat Mime. De
Bonnemain by new system, consisting
in iuoculating the person affected with
the germs Of phthisis with gayacol, which
10 obtained from creosote. However, In
spite Of the efforts made TO save her, Nine.
Dc Bonnemsin died during the evening of
July II.
Mime. De Bonnemain. at the height Of
Of General Boulsuger's career, two or
three years ago, lived in the Rue De Berri,
Paris, where she was continually visited
by the general. Spies kept track Of their
movements and soon discovered that the
two persons referred to were very init
mate. Nine. Boulanger was informed Of
those facts, but refused to apply for di-
vorce. 1t was greatly through Nine. de
Bonnemain's favor that General Boulan-
ger was able to carry on his political in
trigues, for madame had inherited for
tune Of el,5OO, 0OO all Of which she devoted
70 the cglse Of the then powerful leader.
To suJA.an extent did General Boulan-
ger carry his infatuation for Mime. De
Bonnnemain that whom the French gov
ernment determined TO arrest him he could
not be persuaded to pose rs martyr bc-
fore the French people by going to tail
preferring TO fly with his mistress from
France to England and eventually to Brus-
sels, where they have both met their
death.
The general has bcon despondent
ever since the death OF his paramour and
his friends havo been apprehensive Of
violence. He visited the grave Of Nine. De
Bonnemain at 10 o'clock in the forenoon
aud there shot himself through tho head
with q revolver Of large calibre. He died
instantly.
Boulanger left will and political tes-
lament in his desk. 1t Is stated that tho
latter declares unshaken confidence In his
party, enioins his friends to prosecute the
great aims he always had in view, and
ascribes his own death solely to inconsol
able grief over the death OF Nine. DE Bon
nemain.
Shortly after Nine. De Bonnemain's
death, General Boulauger's wife wrote
offering to forgive the general and to
share his exile, but her letter was left un-
anaMered.

The spirit of the present day is that

does not feel this Is out OF touch with

work for himself, only. he is at the

NATIONAL IRISH LEAGUE.
Five Hundred Delegates Attend the
Chicago Meeting.

Five Hundred Delegates Attend the
Chicago Meeting.
Delegates to the number OF 900 met
IN Chicago on the lst to attend the conven-
tion Of the Irish National League OF
America.
O'Neil Ryan of St. Louis was introduced
as the temporary chairman OF the conven-
tion, and he promptly launched into
rousing address, foreshadowiag the policy
Of the gathering
They were not there, Mr.. Ryan said, TO
uphold any section or faction. but were
there, be hoped, to say to the Irish peo-
pie In ireland that when they presented
strong and united front, then, and not un-
till then, should they receive the moral
and material support Of the Irish people
in America. Only an aggressive move
ment, Independent Of both English par
ties, could command the unstinted aid
from America that had been nobly gwen
during the past ton years.
Tho chairmsn's strong speech was
warmly applauded.i
At the second days session w. J.
Gleason Of Cleveland, chairman Of tho
committee on constitution, submitted
plan which made NO mention Of the parent
body In Ireland, thus divesting the
American body from subiectiou or con-
troll or responsibility by the divers organi-
cations at present existing In ireland. The
plan was adopted without question and
the salaries Of the president sectretary
and treasurer to be chosen were fxed At
q, 900 per year.
The platform % adopted places the con-
vention in neutral position on the ques-
tion Of Irish leadership. and declares that
no more funds will be subscribed for the
Irish cause until the money now locked up
in Europe is released through compromise
Of the factions.
A resolution was introduced by Judge
Donnely that Irishmcn should submit to
the leadership in parliament Of the man
chosen by the majority, but this was
voted down as the convention was de-
termined to remain neutral on the Par
nell Mccarthy question.
M. v. Cannon OF Omaha was elected
president, John p. Sutton, secretary; w.
Lyman Of New York, treasurer; Patrick
Boyle of Toronto, Canada, first vice presi-
dent; NJ. d. Gallagher Of New York, sec
ond vice president, and E. ]. O'Connor OF
Augusta, Georgia, third.
The report of the secretary was Of
great interest, dealing Us 1t did with the
