Officers.

Brutal and Unexplained Conduct of French
Officers.
LONDON. April PAN Englishman named
Delmard was arrested in Paris, and not
withstanding a request to that effect, no
reason is given for the arrest. He was
locked up in a wretched cell until morning
and then taken to his lodgings. He was
then ordered to move, but refused to do so.
He was struck in the face and knocked
down and taken again to the prefecture
and placed in a cell filled with yermin. The
following day. after examination by q
Judge, he was taken to Mazas prison and
stripped, being kept naked for an hour ana
a half. Then he was put in a cell measur-
ing six feet by six feet two inches, with
Anastay, who was executed a few days ago
for the brutal murder of Baroness Dellard.
At night he slept with Anastay on one side
and Ravachol, the anarchist, on the other.
Delmnrd was again taken before a judge,
but was sent back to prison on the charge
of being a spy. On April IA he was liber
ated, the Judge ~apologizing for his incar-
c%eration and blaming the police. The mat
ter has been laid before the foreign office
and Delmard demands heavy compensation
for the outrageous treatment. This being
the second instance of unwarranted arrest
OF an Englishman it is believed England
will take such steps in the matter as will
leave no doubt as to her Intentions.

LONDON, April 22.-The only matter OF
interest discussed in the political world
during the week was Gladstone's letter on
woman suffrage. which is bringing protests
from woman s%nffragists. Gladstone's own
organ, the Speaker, will say Tomorrow
"The letter will strike q heavy blow at the
woman sffrage movement, which promised
to attain formidable proportions, chiefly
owing to the reluctance Of politicians to
express opinions on the subject" Reports
from Costa Bello are that Queen Vlotrla Is
in excellent health and has recovered from
the depression due to the death of the
Duke of Clarence, which caused friends OF
her majesty the greatest anxiety. Those
with the Prince of Wales speak ~untavorbly
as regards both his appearance and spirits.
and his health is causing the queen con-
siderable anxiety.

general and council tho power of renewing
from year to year the modus vivendi re-

Lord Stanley, conveying the reply of the
British government to the address of the
Canadian parliament asking the abrogation
of the most favored nation clause in treat
