EXCITEMENT IN wALLA wALLA.

Colonel Compton Asked to Aid in Ferreting out the Guilty Parties Connected With the Lynching Affair.
 WALLA WALLA, Wash. April 26.-Great
 excitement still prevails in this city over
 the lynching of Hunt last night by the
 soldiers of Superior. Judge Upton has
 called on Colonel Compton, commanding
 Fort Walla Walls, for aid in ferreting out
 the guilty parties and bringing them to
 justice. Colonel Compton said he would lend all aid in his power and that only the misconception of the gravity of the situa- ton on his part preventing his taking more active steps to prevent the trouble Colonel Compton stigmatized the action of the mob as disgrace to himself, his officers, the troops and the entire army. The grand jury has been summoned to inquire into the tragedy. Last evening the sheriff and the prosecuting attorney received what they regarded as authentic information that the plot had been laid by the soldiers to kill Policeman Ames and Morse, two gamblers, T. J. Holybroke and Benjamin Taylor and to demolish two gabling houses. When the facts were communicated to Colonel Compton he is- SueO HI OTOeI GQdI no euuSGeQ men De al- lowed out of the post until further orders and that check roll call be made every hour throughout the night until the dan ger of further mob violence is passed Over 100 special guards are on duty to re- pei any attack by the soldiers. -"-
 WASHINGTON, April 26.-No action has been taken by the war department in re- gard to the lynching of D. J. Hunt, who killed private of the army at WallaWalla, Wash, last Wednesday and was lynched by the soldiers Friday. Secretary Proctor said tonight that the matter had been left to the division commander, General Ruger, and every effort would be made by the de partment to aid the civil authorities in bringing the lynchers to justice. The secretary further said thst this was the first instance within his recollection where soldiers of the army had taken revenge by killing the assailant of any of their com rades and he was confident the act was done by them while in frenzy of excite ment and that in due course of time the lynchers would be discovered and pun ished. Nothing would be done by the war department, he said, until report of the affair had been received.

French Newspapers on the Death ol Won MOltke-Paris Full of Promi- nent tAmericans-The Exhibition s1 American Art-The May Bay Cele- brations.
 PARIS, April 26.-The newspaper com ments on the late General von Moltke are generally unsympathetic. Thus the Steele says: "The Gaul salutes without vain anger this barbarian chief, the last of SO many invaders, with whom @ whole age expires"
 La Republique Francaise says: ''This master of the art of war dishonored his most brilliant victories by cruelties and horrors which had been calmly calculated beforehand and which were revolting to the most unfeeling minds"
 The Rappel says: "General von Moltke made sorrowful gift of militarism to Europe. His country, ruined by taxation, will soon learn to curse his memory"
 The Figaro says: "This man, who lived solely to make war and to whom senti- ment was unknown, was the first that in- sisted upon the annexation of Alsace-Lor- raine. This should be forgotten"
 The Gaulois prints an interview with General Canrobert, in which the field marshal is represented as saying: Ger many, for long time to come, will be un- able to find a man capable of eclipsing von Moltke, although his pupils and success ors may continue his line of work. It is we now who have the greatest strategist. I mean General Miribel, our chief of staff"
