Fall Of the Cabinet President--A RussIdn
Exposition.
PARIS. July 19.-The press generally Ia
satisfied that De Froycon,t will not resign
tho premiership. LeSiecle says rupture of
tho cabinet on such grounds ould be in
comprehensive alike to tho chamber and
the country. Change in the government
at present would signally encourage strike
agitatora. LaJustice holds that rebuffs
recently experienced by ministers must not
be attributed to any combination against
them. Strength in republican govern
mont must be measured by tho manner in
which it responds to public opinion. not by
votes having character unworthy of serious
consideration. Several opposition organs
predict tho fall of tho cabinet within three
MONTHS saying Constans and Ferry are
plotting to oust DeFreycenet and seize the
reinS OF government.
Comte d D'Haussonville. representing the
Comte D'Paris, speaking at Toulouse, at

support of the republic, saying that cler-
icals desirous of forming q Catholic repub-
lic party were victims of an illusion. The
watchword of the French republic was now,
as always, ''war against religion" 1t was
not his place to lay down line of conduct
for the clergy, but the policy of Cardinal
Lavigerie was not the best way of defend

They feel grateful to him for having givon

They have been consistent themselves
in this respect and have acted upon princi-
pie rather than with reference to mere ex-

its proper functions and rights as
n denial of one of the fundamental princi-
pies OF the democratic party. They do
plore the apparent opposition of Cleveland
to the free coinage of silver and its remon-

might be willing to delay final demand

rumor that he would retire from the chair
manship of the republican national COM
mittee: The time is approaching when
the work of the campaign of
1892 should be commenced. don't
want to take Charge of that work,
still, don't say positively that will resign
from the chairmanship of the committee.
1t was my intention to retire immediately
after Harrison's election, but circumstances

place encountered with SO many
duties has never abated and it will
come when l feel ut liberty to go. The

vigor by both parties. The man who man.
ages the preliminary work as chairman Of
the executive committee should be in
position now and henceforth to largely de-
vote his time to its duties"
Regarding his probable successor, in case
he resigns, Senator Quay said that while to
his knowledge no letters have been sent to
members of tho committee asking to have
Gen. Clarkson succeed him, 1t was gener-
ally conceded that Mr.. Clarkson would be

WASHINGTON, July l9.-United States SEN
ator Carey, of Wyoming, has Just returned
from trip through the west and brings
news that the alliance is on tho wane and
that the probabilities are that in the great
coming contest the old party lines will
be reformed. 1t is the same story every

prosperity. Kansas, instead of being COM
PEELED to look for a crop and market both,
will have 45,00O,000 bushels OF wheat for

Farmers everywhere are beginning to
plan improvements to lands and buildings,
and will be very glad to have the help
from the eastern money ceut:r RS which
has been refused them in consequences of

glistens on every side. Farmers have
