MEXICO's BANDITS.
The Soldiers and Deputy Marshels
Close on Their Heels.

The Soldiers and Deputy Msrshels
Close on Their Heels.
SAN ANTONIO, Dec. 16.-A dispatch from
Carrizo, Tex, says the state troops, United
States soldiers from Fort Mcintosh and a
large posse of United States deputy mar
shaIs are on the trail of the bandits, who
had an engagement with Mexican troops
opposite San Ygnecio Saturday night.
The trail of the bandits leads almost di-
rectly north, and q courier, who has just
arrived at Carrizzo, says the soldiers and
deputy marshals are but few hours be-
hind them. 1t is generally believed
that desperate resistance will be
made by the so-called Tevolu-
tionists if they are cornered, and their
capture attempted. There will be no quar-
ter given II the Cara men offer any resist
ance. The action of the authorities at San
Ygnacio in holding as United States prison
ers Mexican soldiers who were captured and
brought across the river by tho bandits is
severely condemned by the American resi-
dents OF this place. Two thousand Mexican
troops are being rushed to the frontier to
protect that country from further invasion.
SIX KILLED NEAR I'll PAso.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 16-Unofflcial in-
formation has been received at the war
department to the effect that during the
recent disturbance on the Mexican side of
the Rio Grande near El Paso, a captain and
ensign, and four soldiers, all Mexicans, were
killed. Tho disturbance was not OF q po-
litical character, simply an ordinary row.

states of the union prohibiting non-fesidents
from serving as peace officers,
1t was also recommended that the fedora
tion refuse, under any circumstances, to

A GUILLOTINE HORROR.
THE MURDERER CARRIED TO THE
PLATFORM.

A Crowd OF Toughs and Dissolute
Women Greatly Amused by the
Victims Piteous Appeals for Mercy
and Abject Terror-The Head Quickly
Rolled Into the Basket.
PARIS, Dec. 16.-Eugene Crampon, the
murderer Of two men, was guillotined this
morning, and the crowd that gathered to
see the execution greatly enjoyed the spec
table afforded by the miserable, cowardly
wretch as be was literally carried to the
guillotine.
AT exactly 7 o'clock the prison doors
swung inward, and the procession could be
seen approaching. Champion, who was in an
agony Of fear, was supported by warders
and accompanied by a priest, who as he
walked read the services for the dying.
The grim aud awful red guillotine doomed
up directly ahead Of the little party. II
was only few steps from the prison. After
walking few feet Champion raised his
eyes and saw It, With terrible shrek, he
threw himself backward and fell TO the
ground.
BEGGING FOR LIFE.
All efforts TO induce him to rise were fruit
less and he jgroveled on the fagstone, beg
ging most piteously for life. To person
of any sensibility the scene was one of
deepest horror. but the crowd OF roughs
and abandoned women took The keenest de-
light In witnessing the abject fear aud
listening TO the frantic appeals Of the muir
derer. It became necessary for the execu-
toner's assistants to lift Champion to his
feet. but even then he hung limp in their
arms, and they were compelled 10 carry
~ SN,n ~ Al.
assistants supported him, others quickly
bound him and threw him against the bas-
oule Even then be did not cease strug-
Cling. His contortions were terrible, but
they did not last long.
FALL OF THE KNIFE.
The bascule was dropped into place and
the assistants showed il forward until
Champions neck rested Ia the lunette. Then
Monsieur de Paris" attired as usual In the
conventional frock GOAT and silk hat
touched the spring holding the knife.
Silently and like streak Of lightning the
bright blade fell and Champions head
dropped into the open basket awaiting 1t.
The execution was the most horrible one
that has been witnessed in Paris In many
years. The crowd, highly pleased With the
entertainment the state had afforded them,
dispersed, laughing and joking with each
other.
CHAMPIONS CRIME.
Champion was an old offender against the
law. On the night OF March last, he, in
company with two accomplices, went to
the billiard room of a wine shop in the Rue
st. Denis, broke into an adjoining room
and were plundering the shop when the
landlady of the place entered and surprised
them. The woman gave the alarm and the
thieves fed. A number OF men followed
them and were gaining upon Champion.
when he turned and shot two Of them dead
and wounded third. His acoomplices es-
capped.

on such burning question.
The archbishop added that Mgr. Satolli's
address at the conference OF the archbishops
In New York had received the pope's ap-
proval and pthat the controversy was

principal steamship lines appeared before
the joint committee on immigration to-day
In connection with the proposition ko sus-
pend immigration. Gustavs 81. Schwab.
representing various transatlantic steam
ship companies, made a general statement
In behalf Of the companies. He suggested
that the examination OF immigrants be left
to the European agents of the steamship
companies, the agents being under bonds.
Senator Hill asked him how the United
States could enforce these penalties this side
Of the Atlantic when they were operative
on the other side. The United States could
have no jurisdiction over European agents
MIR. Schwab said the steamship companies
were willing TO be held responsible for their
foreign agents.
AT the conclusion Of Mr.. Schwab's ad-
dress, Senator PETER asked if the companies
would be willing to allow United States
officers to assist in the examination of immi-
grants before leaving Europe.
Mr.. Schwab stated that the companies
would not only permit, but welcome such
assistance and supervision by United States
agents. In saying this he represented all
the continental lines. but not the English
lines.
MIR. Hsle-What is the condition under
which you propose to cease carrying steer
age passengers!
Mr.. Schwab-After Jan. we propose. of
our own motion, to discontinue carrying
steerage passengers without any reference
to legislation.

BLAINE AND THE PRIESTS
RUMoRS THAT BE WANTS HIS SON
TO MAKE UP WITH aIS WIFE.

The Marriage a Source OF Constant
Sorrow to the Plumed Knight-Fath-
er Ducey Opposed TO the Divorce
Proceedings - Young Mrs. Blaine
Also Has Scruples Against Breaking
a Rule of the Church.
BALTIMORE, Dec. T6.-The recent report
that Hon. James @. Blaine was about to be-
come a Catholic is revived here through q
visit of Father Ducey of New York The
story that Mr.. Blaine would change his
faith originated from visit paid by Cardi-
nal Gibbons and Father Ducey to the ex.
secretary on Monday. The statesman IS
said to have expressed wish to see the
churchmen aud talk with them on religious
matters, as he feared his lease of life was
rapidly growing less.
A new theory as to the visit
OF his eminence and Father Ducey upon
Mr.. Blaine is advanced by a well informed
Catholic Of this city, who says: "The as
sstance Of these churchmen is being in
voked to secure a reconciliation between
James g. Blaine, Jr., and his divorced wife,
1t will be remembered that Father Ducey
played conspicuous part in this unhappy
matrimonial alliance. He married the
couple, and the ex secretary has held him
responsible for the trouble resulting.
few months ago the statesman
wrote long letting scoring Father Ducev
for his part in the marriage aud divided
the blame between the priest and the bride.
This unfortunate marriage has been
source of constant sorrow to the Piumedl
Knight and CLOSING act in the matrimonial
drama which saw the legal separation of
his son brought increased pain. Father
Ducey had been the clerical adviser of Mrs
James G. Blaine, Jr., who
is a Catholic Father Ducey was
oppose to the divorce proceed
ings end Mrs. Blaine, Jr., was not entirely
in sympathy with the idea of violating
rule of her church. My opinion of the
matter is that reconciliation is possible
between the parties. The senior Blaine,
have reason TO believe, would prefer be-
fore he dies, to see his son reconciled TO his
wife, aud for that reason has asked the
intercession of Cardinal Gibbons and Father
Ducey."
At late hour tonight James G. Blaine.
Jr., was authority for statement that the
condition of his father had improved.
A CARD FROM THE BLAINEs.
The following card was issued from Mr..
Blaine's residence at 10 O'Clock tonight:
17MADIsoN PLACE,
WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec &c. 1892.
HRS. Blaine, in reply to the many letters of
anxious inquiry sent her on this subject, asks
me to state that there is not the slightest truth
in the report that Mr.. Blaine has entered the
Roman Catholic church, and that nothing could
be further from his thoughts or intentions
It should be needless to state tnRt Father
Ducey has never been at the house.

The news of the arrests caused a sensa-
tion in the Chamber OF Deputies, and much
excitement In the lobbies.

NATURE OF THE cHABGRs.
The charges against the officers OF the
Panama company, on which summonses
were previously served and on which they

cred il that they have dissiuated the capital
intrusted TO them for specific purposes, and
that they have swindled others our of part
