THE FRANCo-RU>s1AN TREATY

LONDON, Aug. 3.-The Times st. Peters
burg correspondent records rumor that
the czar has already approved and that the
ministers have signed the draft of treaty
brought to Russia by Admiral Gervais, oi
the French squadron.
The Standards Vienna correspondent
scouts the idea of regular alliance between
Russia and France, but thinks Admiral
Geryais discussed with the Russians the de-
tails of possible cooperation on the part
o: the Russian and French fleets. The cor
respondent points out that it would be I'M
possible tor ironclads to pass through
the sound into the Baltic. Admiral Gervais
found that he had to take the route to the
great belt and to pass the Gulf of MeckIen-
burg. This, in the time of war, would ex-
pose feet desiring to assist Russia or Rus
sian vessels waiting to attack the German
coast to an encounter with the German
fleet in Kiel bay.

A MYSTERIOUS MURDER.
One More Added to Long Islands Lon
List of Crimes

List of Crimes.
GLENDALE, L. l., Aug. 3.-To add to Long
Islands already long list OF crimes another
mysterious murder was revealed in this
village to-day that will probably, like
many more, never be solved. The victim
this time is pretty young woman, about
twenty years of age, with dark hair and
eyes and a petite figure. The horrible
crime was discovered this morning by a
man who was picking blackberries in the
swamps near the village.
The body was found near new DIV elling
in course of construction. A more lonely
spot couH not be found along Long Island
The marks of finger and thumb nails on
the throat of the girl left no
doubt but that she had been
murdered by being choked to death. The
skin of the neck bore five abrasions, and
on the left side of the throat the nails OF
four fingers had cut into it, and
the thumb nail had penetrated the
skin on the right side. The
vital organs were in a normal condition.
The clothing of the girl was in perfect order
when the body was discovered, and there
was nothing to indicate that struggle had
taken place. Hundreds have seen the dead
girl TODAY. but none know her.
