FRANCES FATAL DUEL.

Among the Jews.

De MoreS Arrested-Great Excttem ent
Among the Jews.
PARIS, June 24-Tbe Marquis de Mores
has been arrested on a charge OF causing
the death Of Capt. Mayer. The funeral of
the unfortunate duelist has been fixed for
Sunday next. 1t promises to be an impos-
ing affair. The death of Capt. Mayer at
the hands of the Marquis de Mores in defense
of the rights of the Jews In France and
as result OF the Rnti-Semitic
warfare which is being waged
them in this country, has created great ex-
citemeut among the Jews here and has
aroused them TO a high pitch OF indignation
at the untimely taking off OF their oham-
pion. 1t is feared that the Jewish residents
of this city and suburbs will engage in a
demonstration on the occasion OF the funeral
Of Capt. Mayer. The authorities ap-
pretended trouble in the event OF
the Jews making any manifestations
and are accordingly taking all the ueces-
sary precautions TO prevent any conflict on
Sunday. In the Chamber Of Deputies to-
morrow NJ. Dreyfus will question M.
de Freycinet, minister of war, as to what
steps the government has proposed to take
to secure liberty of conscience in France,
and to protect officers Of the army from
insult.
ARMY OFFICERS TO AvENGE HIM.
IL is reported that jewish officers in the
French army intend to avenge the death of
Capt. Mayer. and that a series OF duels
arising from the affair is imminent.
The newspapers In their editorial com
ments in reference to the duel, almost
unanimously regret the death of Capt.
Mayer. They censure the poemic which
led to the tragic event, and say they trust
that the emotions excited by the fatal OUT
come of the duel may arrest the attempts
which are being made to revive religious
quarrels In this country.
The whole Jewish colony Of Paris have
sent messages of profound coincidence to the
family Of Capt. Mayer, and have expressed
to the bereaved relatives their lively appre-
cIation of the virtues of the dead man and
their deep sorrow at the loss of their valiant
coreligionist

THE SILVER CONFERENCE
Mr.. Barbour, member of the Indian
council, with Sir. @. W. Fremantle. chief
OF the mint department., will probably be-
the British delegates to the International
prominent bimetallist. He acted at the
Paris conference and signed, with Lord
Lansdowne, Sir Henry Brackenhury and
other members OF the viceroy's council, the
recent minute to the secretary Of state for
India, urging the government TO lend the
United States conference proposals
its strongest support. The minute.
the foreign office, says that the violent
oscillations since 1890 and the rapid decline
in the price of silver causes the mercantile
community the gravest anxiety. II an
international agreement is not attained the
United States government will sooner or
later be driven to adopt the silver standard
or abandon the purchase of silver. Cessa-
ton by the United States to pur-
chase silver cannot fail TO further
depress the price of the metal.
The British government ought to consider
measures calculated to protect India and to
remedy violent fluctuations in the relative
values of gold and silver. The answer Of
Visoount Gross, secretary OF state for India,
announces that England will take part in
the international congress, and adds that
the conference will assemble and consider
by what means the use of silver can be in-
creased In the currency systems OF the
nations.
The parliamentary committee of the
trades unions council yesterday passed
resolution declaring that the council trusted
that the international conference would re-
suit in a stable exchange being secured be-
tween the moneys Of gold and silver using
countries.
The royal agricultural show has been at

and Secretary Rusk's prohibition of im-
port Of cattle and sheep as needless.

INoEND1AR1Es AT WORK.
CIeveland's Fire Department Kept on
the Jump.

Cleveland's Fire Department Kept on
the Jump.
CLEVELAND, o., June 4.-Fire bugs are
evidently at work in Cleveland The fire
department. has been kept on the jump for
nearly forty-eight hours and there were
four alarms inside Of an hour yesterday.
The incendiaries began work about two
weeks ago. At first they confined their
operations 10 the lumber district on the
fats. A strong guard was established there
and the work was transferred to the busi-
ness district. Early yesterday the Eagle
oil refinery, on Rawlings street, was dams
aged to the extent of $40 900. Yesterday
afternoon fire was started in the tower of
the Central police station by an incendiary.
While the department was at work there
flames broke out of the garret of
the big general office building Of the Lake
Shore railroad, on st. Clair street,
causing loss Of 1880 before they were
extinguished. No sooner had the fremen
returned to their quarters than the Central
was put out and then an alarm called the
department to the furniture factory Of d.
L. Schier & Co., Nos. 20 and 72 Fayette
street, causing a loss Of 800. 900 on stock and
s., 900 on the building. There had been no
fire in the building. An hour later fire was
discovered in the top story of the Cleveland
Gas Company's Office building on Superior
street. All these fires were within radius
of half mile and one man could have
easily started all OF them.

HOM OMEsTEAD'S wAaa SCALE.
The Conferen With the Men Fails to
Bring an Agreement.


Bring an Agreement.
PITTsBURG, June M.-The situation at
the Homestead steel plant of Carnegie,
Phipps 81 Co.. has assumed very serious as
pect The conferences Of yesterday and to-
day between the members of the firm and
representatives Of their 4, 800 employees was
disappointing, although disagreement was
not expected. To-day was the last day
upon which the firm would permit the men
to accept the scale as an orRanIzation, and
hereafter they will be dealt with as indi-
viduals. There seems but little prospect Of
a settlement. A strike, which has been
talked OF as a possibility, seems
inevitable. While the conference failed to
accomplish anything, overtures will likely
be made by both sides between this aud
July 1, but the breach is 80 great that 1t Is
feared an agreement is impossible. IL is
known that the firm has sufficient orders to
keep their mills in operation for some
months, and the report that many Of these
orders have been cancelled has strengthened
the belief that early settlement is not
anticipated. This, coupled with the pre-
paratlons which go steadily on, have bus
little ground TO hope tnat the differences
will be quickly or amicably adjusted.

DEPEW STICKS TO DOODLE
He DECIDES NOT TO ACCEPT TIE
SECRETARYsHIP OF STATE.

His Highly Remunerstive Business
Connections More Valuable to Elm
Than the Honor of the Secretary
ship-The President VIII Make an
Appointment Only for the Balance OF
His Term.
WAsHINGToN, June 24.--Chauncey M.
Depew has positively declined the place
which Mr.. Blaine vacated, at the head Of
the state department. 1t was offered him
by the President when Mr.. Depsw was here
last Saturday, and Mr.. Depew requested q
few days to think IL over. The result of his
thinking Is that he cannot give up his i'm
portant business relations for the barren
honor of title and $s, 900 year. He has
made this fact known TO the President, aud
all hope Of securing his services at the head
of the cabinet has been abandoned.
The President has about abandoned the
idea Of making an appointment to cover the
four years Of the second term, which he
confidently expects to obtain. He will
probably make an appointment for the eight
months and leave the question OF appoint
ing some one for longer term until after
the election.
FOSTERS QUALIFICATIONS
The Hon. John w. Foster, ex-minister TO
Russia. Spain and Mexico would be the most
natural selection for the remainder of the
Presidents term. Mr.. Foster has had prao-
tical charge of most OF the important ne-
gotiations Of the past three years,
aud would need no apprenticeship
at his dutieA Another name
which is being suggested for the eight
months term is that Of Col. Hay,
the biographer OF President Lincoln, who
has given much attention 10 diplomatic
questions. Col. Hay lives In handsome
house here on the opposite side OF Lafayette
park from the white mouse, and would enioy
the honor Of brief tenure IN the highest
executive office in the government below
that of the President.

New YORK, June "a 24.-Following is the
leading editorial in the Sun to-day: There
is one question depending on the election OF
the next President. which, in It's momentous
Importance and vital imperativeness, must
seem to every philosophio observer to ex-
ceed every other political question that the
people are now called upon to determine.
All differences of opinion respecting admin
istrative reform or silver coinage, or free
trade or protection, or the personal quail"
ties or antecedents Of the candidates, in
short, the whole ordinary array of electoral
controversies are, in comparison, of inferior,
indeed of almost trivial, moment. Wemean
the question whether those southern states
which have inherited a negro population
snrnassing the number of their white citi-
zens shall. by federal law and federal mill
tary force, be subjected to the political
domination of the negroes, to
negro legislatures, negro governors
and negro judges in their
courts. or whether they shall continue to be
governed by white men as now. Now it
makes no difference who may be the Presi-
dent whom the Republican party elects
since Mr.. Blaine is now permanently out OF
the line of power-that party by its nature
and traditions is under the necessity OF ems
acting and executing an election la" whose
nnrpose and effect will be TO put the negroes
n control of several Of the southern states.

oHATHAMs OUT A SWELL.
The Gallant Artillerymen Making q
Fine Showing at Griffin.


GRIFFIN, Ca, June 24-This hos been
the greatest day Of the encampment. More
visitors and more excitement has attended
the days proceedings than at any Of the
other visits the governor has made. Up to
O'Clock this evening, only routine work
was engaged in, but at that hour the
governor aud staff was announced by the
booming OF the cannon on the lower end OF
the grounds. The first duty they performed
was the inspection of camp quarters, which
required an hour, after which the review
was had, and an imposing sight 1t
was. After the governor and
staff had reviewed the troops,
both front and rear, they marched down
midway the grounds when the troops passed
In grand review. First came the Infantry
ln double column platoons followed by the
Chathams on foot while the cavalry we're in
the rear in double liue OF platoons. The
scene reminded those who were old enough
TO remember it of the days when Georgia
soldiers were preparing for grim war. The
review was followed by the sham skirmish
ON tho extended order by the regulars. 1t
was very pretty and finely executed.
THE GALATIANS.
The Chathams have covered themselves
with glory since coming into camp. Not a
day has passed that they have not received
words of praise In their field movements,
but this evening after the review Lieut.
Satterlee openly complimented them on
their marching order in the review this
afternoon. They manned the guns in the
governors salute this evening" and the regu-
larity of their rire was as near perfection as
such things ever get to be. They had their
gatltnR gun on exhibition this evening and
1t was quite curiosity to all on
the grounds. They used 10 In slow,
medium and rapid firing. They fired
0UO shots in very short
space Of time. Tho governor was greatly
pleased with the work Of the gun and with
the Chatham Artillery as a company.
DIR. Frank z. Lincoln of the Chatham
Artillery has been appointed post surgeon
OF the camp. He viii deliver a lecture to
the regiment on the first care OF the wound
ed tomorrow afternoon. DIR. Lincoln has
made fine impression upon all who have
met him. Lieuts. Harmon and Walker
have been repeatedly complimented on
their commanding of the company. All
Gritfin votes them the most popular officers
in camp. Capt. Wheaton is expected to
come up Sunday morning and take charge
OF his command. The boys are preparing
to give him a royal welcome. All the
Chathams are well and enjoying camp life
and are pleased with Griffin.
