TAILLON CALLED TO QUEBEC
To Be Asked to Take the Premiership Re-
signed by De BOuchervilIe.

To Be Asked to Take the Premiership Re-
signed by De BouchervilIe.
MONTREAL, QUE, Dec. IL Special. 1-Mr
De Boucherville's resignation of the Quebec
premiership was to-day accepted by Lieu
tenant Governor Chapleau. Mr.. L. o. Tail
lon, of this city, received summons from
the Lieutenant Governor and left for Que
bee this evening. 1t is believed that Mr..
Taillon will be induced to form a new ad-
miniatration.
De Boucherville's resignation is the talk
of the hour in political circles. The rela-
tions between Chapleau and De Boucher
vile have not been of friendly nature for
years and when Chapleau was appointed
Lieutenant Governor of Quebec, it was
known that De Bouch erville would not
serve under him. The Prime Minister
waited until the Lieutenant Governor
reached the Capital and the day afterward
handed his resignation, which was promptly
accepted. Several other ministers are ex-
pected to retire and De BoucherviIle's
withdrawal will widen the breach between
the Clericals and straight Conservatives.
Mr.. Taillon, who will probably be the next
Premier of Quebec, is a lawyer by profess
sion and about 81 years of age. He was
formerly Speaker and Attorney General and
was Premier for few days prior to the
Mercier administration. After the down.
fall of the Mercier Government, he became
member of the De Boucherville Govern
ment without portfolio.

Defects in the Indictments, Though Loose
Practice, Hold the Prisoners.
UNIoNTowN, Dec. IA In the trial OF the
Cooley cases to-day District Attorney
Frasher quoted from Whartonto show 1t Is
peculiarly Pennsylvania custom to have
the indictments drawn in the form objected
to. Mr.. Downs also quoted from Wharton
to overrule this. Judge Ewing ruled that
1t is the custom in this State. He thought
it very loose practice, and would have
quashed the bills but for an instance which
he quoted as precedent Attorney Searisht
asked for continuance on account of the
absence of witnesses, and also because OF
the popular feeling in this case, but he also
was overruled. The witnesses both for the
Commonwealth and the defendants had gone
off, believing after last night they would
not be required again this term. The Judge
said they would all require to be here be-
fore tomorrow. Meanwhile murder case
was taken, up, and the Cooley cases will
come next. The cases against Ida Pas-
torious will, of course, also stand now.
Attorney Downs. surprised at being over
ruled by the Court, intends to bring up the
point again. He has gotten several cases in
his favor from "Wharton's Presidents in
Indictments" and hopes yet that what
Judge Ewing characterized was loose
practice" although allowed by custom, may
be set aside in this case and continuance
granted.

determined upon when the question of
renewing the contracts with the Gov

Robbers TerroriZe an Old Couple, Attempt
ing to Get Money.
NEW CASTLE, Pa, Dec. IA Especial i
MI. and Mrs. Jonathan Kallert reside in
Shenango township, four miles from this
city. They are old folks and quite wealthy.
Yesterday Kallert expected to receive a
large sum of money in payment of note,
but was disappointed.
AT 9 o'clock last night, while Kallert was
lying on lounge, his wife being in bed,
there was rap at the door which the old
man answered. Two masked men with
pistols in hand pushed into the room, order
ing Kallert to hold up his hands. The old
man was so frightened that he sank into a
chair, but he held his hands high over his
head. Then he was told to produce his
money, but he was literally unable to speak.
Repeating the demand for money one of the
men pushed the muzzle of pistol against
his face and pointed another at the bed
where Mrs. Kallert was lying, threatened
to shoot both if the money was not forth
coming.
Fear for his wife's safety enabled the old
man to protest that he had no money. The
men laughed and asked him where the
money was that he got on the note. Luckily
he had the note in his pocket, and was per-
mitted to use one hand to produce it. This
satisfied the men OH that score, but they
told him to turn his pocketbook inside out
on the table. He did so and they took $40,
leaving him 20 cents in silver Mrs Kali
lert says she heard the voices of two other
men on the porch, who were probably
posted as pickets. Kallert came here to-
day and placed the matter in the hands of
Detectives Brown and Marshall.

or though there were doubts in regard to
the legal constitution of the Legislature
which elected them. 1t is general belief
among Senators, though they will not be
quoted as admitting it, that while Cali
fornia may elect q Republican, Kansas,
Nebraska, Wyoming and Montana will re-
turn Populists with either Republican or
Democratic tendencies; and in that case it
is probable that both Democratic and Re-

Of men who will hold within their little

Their Commands Would Be Law.
Should those three or four Populists be
elected to act with PETER and Kyle, already
in their seats, the balance of power would
be firmly in the hands of these few. They
could issue their commands in regard to
organization and legislation and the Re-
publicans and Democrats would have no
recourse but to obey, and this, as affairs
look at this writing, is the most probable
outcome of the confusion. As to the in

whose counsels would be more valuable
than those of any other person in the land,
in case shrewd tactics were to be attempted,
that there will be positively no interference.
They would keep all hands off and allow
the States in question to attend to their own
affairs. This, said the Senator, was final,
and no matter what might be asserted the
country could rest assured that not a man
nor dollar had been or would be sent to
any doubtful States to assist Republicans
there in any way whatever.
Senator Mcpherson emphatically and in

KENTUCKY DIsTILLERs DISAGREE

Those With Heavy Stocks Want the Tax
Increased, While Others Object.
LOUISVILLE, Dec 14.-At a meeting OF
the wholesale whisky dealers and dis
tillers of Kentucky this afternoon no
agreement could be reached as to the in
ternal revenue tax on whisky. Those who
have heavy stock want the tax increased,
while those whose holdings are short want
it to remain at 80 cents a gallon.
The distillers are borrowing money from
the bank to tax whisky out of bond in
anticipation of an increase in the tax. The
new State revenue law increases the State
tax on whisky, and an attempt will be
made to have the assessors continue the old
valuation of IS barrel.

Congress VIII Probably Give the President
All the Power Necessary.
WASHINGTON. Dec. IA. L Special - A
joint meeting of the Immigration Commit
tees of the House and Senate was held to-
day, and then occurred some desultory talk
in regard to the various projects for restrict
ing immigration. ANY prolonged discussion
was postponed at the request of Senator
Hill, through one of the members of the
committee, that further action be delayed
until the representatives of the steamship
companies can be heard. Friday and Sat-
urday were therefore set apart by the joint
committee for a hearing of the representa-
tives of these companies. The outcome of
the vast volume of immigration argument
and discussion will probably be a compro-
mise bill giving the President the power to
restrict, suspend or prohibit immigration
when in his judgment the conditions appear
to demand such action.

for the cessation of the war in return for
the cession of the town of Kotonou to the
French General Dodds, the commander
of the French forces, broke the agreement,

Benhanzin said he thereupon set fire to

900 soldiers, and that he is prepared to
carry ON a sanguinary guerilla warfare.
He concludes his letter by proposing to
cede Whydah to the British.
