THE CHADoUINE AFFAIR.
1t Creates Excitementa at European
Centers.

PARIS, Dec. 20.-M. Herbert, the
French minister at Berlin, has advised
Foreign Minister Ribot that the German
government supports Bulgaria in her
attitude in the ChadOuine affair, and
holds that NJ. Stambulotf had no option
but to act as he did, and that France is
not justified in the rupture of relations
with Bulgaria. The attitude of Ger
many as regards the affair, however,
will hot alter NJ. RibOt'S policy. which
is approved by the whole cabinet. A
communication to the press gives
a forecast of NJ. Ribot's statement
to be made in the chamber of deputies
in reply to NJ. Millevoye's Interpolation.
In this statement the minister will
maintain the illegally Of the arrest and
expulsion of NJ. ChadOuine. and will as
sert that the general hostility of the
Bulgarian government was shown in
the watching of the residence of NJ.
Lanlle, the charge d affairs. At the
same time he will announce the de-
termination of France not TO submit to
the violation of treaty rights.
In regard to the note sent to NJ. Cam
bon, the French ambassador to Turkey
instructed him to present formulated
demands to the porte for an apology
from Bulgaria. and that she be made to
rescind the order of expulsion against
Chadouine. 1t is now stated here that
semi-official advices from Constantine
pie are that the porte will reply that the
matter IS an internal affair of Bulgaria
which does not come under the juris-
diction of the SuZerain, and that, as
France only applied to the porte after
the failure, 1t is impossible now to inter-
fere. The report that NJ. RibOt has re-
called ali the French cOnsuls in Bull
garia is premature. The government
does not desire to precipitate events.

LINCOLN MAY RESIGN.
Rumors of His Determination to
Retire Come from London.

LONDON, Dec. 20.-Minister Lincoln
arrived in London last week from his
continental tour. There is reason to
believe that his resignation will be sent
to President Harrison in a few days.
Minister Lincoln is in the best of health
and spirits.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-NOthlng def
mite can be got here in regard to Minis
ter LincOln'S resignation, as everybody
connected with the administration pro-
fesses ignorance. 1t has been the I'M
derstanding, though, that the min
lister might not serve his term
out. More than a year ago, when
his retirement might have embarrassed
the president, Mr.. Lincoln came to
Washington, and the statement was
then made that his resignation, if it
came, would not be until the president
was ready to receive it. The talk has
been that the minister did not like Lon
don, but was willing to take his old post
as secretary of war if it should be
offered to him. Gen. Harrison, how
ever, preferred that Mr.. Lincoln should
remain in London. 1t is stated that the
health of his family has not been good,
and that was the reason for his desire to
return to the United States. Ex-senator
Evarts would be glad to succeed him.
CHICAGO, Dec. 20. -Pierpont lsham,
of the law firm of Isham, Lincoln d
Beale, has not heard of the reported de-
termination of Robert T. Lincoln to re-
sign as minister to England. lie doubted
the genuineneSs of any such report, as
Mr.. Lincoln has not communicated with
them in any way regarding such a
course, and he was sure the firm would
know of it if it were true.
1--WE would have to move around
little if Mr.. Lincoln returned, and we
would be likely to know of any such in
tentions in time to get his office in
readiness. Stories about his resigna-
ton are started every few months. For
my part l put no credence- in the
rumor."
Mr.. Beale, one of Mr.. Lincoln's law
partners, said that he did not believe
the report of the intended resignation.
He had received a letter from Mr.. Lin
coin a few days ago, and no intimation
was given therein relative to tho resig-
nation. If the minister had such in
tenti0ns, Mr.. Beale thinks he would
have been Informed in the letter, and.
consequently, he discredits the report.

HARD AFTER SULLIVAN.
SIavin Tells Why He Came tt
America,

NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-Pugilist Frank
P. Slavin and Charley Mitchell came
ashore from the steamer Britannia to-
day. Slavin said his object in coming
here was to fight. II am not on a pleas
ure trip" he continued. II ar the fer
ret after the rabbit, and have come to his
hole to find him.
In answer to other queries he said,
"My first purpose is to arrange fight
with Sullivan. l put him first because
he is, in my opinion. the best man OIL
this side. L will fight under any rules,
in any place, in any state where
a guarantee will be given that
Mitchell will not be moleSted.
l won't go where he is in
danger of arrest. That is my only
objection to New Orleans. / will fight
for stake of from e20O upward and be-
fore the club offering the largest purse.
l will give Sullivan three months, a suf-
fcient time, any one will tell you, for a
man TO fit himself. If can't arrange a
go with Sullivan. then | will fight any
body else who thinks he is a good one.
If didn't think l could whip Sullivan
| would not bother him."
Mitchell said: 81 am not here to
fight, but will meet COrbett in a teu-
round glove contest at any place in New
York city for purse. | will do this
just to give jim a chance to exhibit
some of those newly developed powers
of his. Slavin will meet him in a glove
contest or with knuckles to finish. and
in case of our failure to arrange with
Sullivan we would like to hear from
him ,,
