Dusl.
paris, Dec. 28.-Ths effort Of AssdFtsux
70 draw Premier Ribot into . duel Aas
failed. II is not considered likely AudrisHx
viii resort TO violence, ~ was at hrst inti-
mated. There is no Disgusting the foct
that Andrieux has gained much admira-
tion by the boldness and success Of his
course. There 10 no doubt the government
intended to order his arrest on the charGs
OF treason, the arrest to be effected su6-
denly and 1trike terror into the plotters
for the overthrow OF ne administratioo.
Andrioux checkmated that scheme b.
boldly proclaimine the governments In.
tentions and purpose ~ explained TO a.
lencs him in tho task Of exposing Panama
frauds by committing him to . dungeon.
He also proclaimed he had made sure Of
the security Of the evidence under his con-
troll 20 that the purpose of the governments
Is defeated. This, Il 10 reported, made ths
ministry hesitate In the purpose OF a.
resting Andrieux without having clear,
unanswerablc evidence to establish Q case
against him. The ministry feared the pub.
lie would interpret hasty arrest a. proof
that the statements Of Andrieux as to tho
motives Of the government were true. This
would mean the ruin Of the cabinet.
When Andrieux arose Monday morning
still at liberty, he determined on stiil
bolder move, that was 10 give Ribot tho
choice between q duel or retraction Of
words In which he had accused Andrieux
Of endeavoring to excite disorder and vir.
tually Of being the instigator OF an insur.
rection. Andrieux sent q challenge to
Ribot on the ground stated. The premier
replied through his secretary that the ut
terances of Ribot had not gone beyond
legitimate public criticism. Andrieux was
not satisfied with the reply and sent two
friends to the premier to demand satisfac-
ton. The friends represented that NJ.
Andrieux considered Ribot's words as Inn
plying that he, Andrieux. was guilty Of .
criminal ignoble act, and was seeking In
an illegitimate manner to arouse disorder
and bloodshcd. Andrieux therefore In.
sisted, thcy declared, on such satisfaction
as duel would give.
Ribot replied quietly nd decisively that
he had nothing TO odd 10 the explanation
already given through his secretary, ex-
cent he considered the explanation ought
to have dissipated any doubts Of Andrieux
as 10 the sense In which the words which
Andrieux considered offensive had been
used. Ribot did not speak apologctically,
nor did he offer any rctraction or even
propose to mitigate or extenuate the
meaning of what he had said. He de-
clined at tho same timc 20 discuss the
matter any further. Andrieux now states
in letter to the newspapers that Ribot's
words could be taken ms equivocal. An
tlrieux adds: "They are not acceptable
to me, but thank my friends for the
measures they have taken toward dissi.
pating doubts as to what Ribot meant"

only way that can vote for Clark will be
for him to flop over and conform TO our
demands, and even then it would be bitter

that Governor Hogg was much preferable

The Waco Clark Meeting.

Special TO the Gazette,
WACO, TEX. March A rousing and
enthusiastic mass meeting filled the district
court room tonight, floor and gallery
There were many ladies present. DR.. Thomas
Moore, a prohibitionist Of national reputa-
ton. whose children, grand children and
great grand children number fifty souls, was
elected chairman He stated the object of the
meeting to be the organizing of a Clark
club, to be composed of Democrats OF Waco
and McLennan county.
After many speeches and the adoption of
several resolutions, all in the tenor of the
occasion, five vice-presidents were
elected, three secretaries, and the
rolls were filed out with not less
than 200 names. Extra secretaries had to
be elected in addition to the three, so
pressing was the rush for enrolment
After the meeting the scandinavia
brass band of forty pieces headed a pro-
cession and gave Judge Clark a serenade. 8
1t was the most enthusiastic meeting
probably that ever occurred in Waco.
DR.. Thomas Moore, the president of the
club, was a member of the secession con-
vention in 1861, Confederate states
man during the war, and has fire.
quently represented his state in
the legislature. When past fifty years
old the doctor abandoned the practice of
medicine and took up law, soon becoming
renowned in the latter profession. In the
prohibition campaign of 1856 he was one of
the most uncompromising prohibitionists,
and TO his influence is attributed the
strength manifested by the anti-liquor men
in Central Texas. The Doctors advocacy
of Clark in opposition to Hogg is a strong
Indication and sign of the times.

What the Governor Saws.
Special to the Gazette.


AUSTIN, TEX, March 4-The governors
mail during these days is unusually heavy,
the bulk of it, he says, consisting of letters
from all over the state expressing sym
pathy and rendering offers of aid on the
stump or in any capacity desired. His old
friends, he claims, are rallying to his sup
port in the most encouraging fashion, many
of them chatting to take the field and rip
Clark's boom up the back. The governor
regrets his inability to speak during the
campaign at all the places to which he has
been invited. Letters of invitation to
come and talk to the boys are piling in on
him at such a rate that he finds it almost
impossible to answer them. He would 90
if he could, but it is physically impossible
for him to do so, his time until the adjourn
ment of the special session being all alb
sorbed in his duties here, and after that
his appointments are all made covering
what time is left to him. He refuses to
say anything at present about Clark's
candidacy further than that he regards
that gentleman's Weatherford speech as I
fine text when he gets on the stump His
friends here regard it as extremely vul-
nerable and say that it can be easily riddled
on the stump, while Clark's friends speak
in high praise of it.
Master-in-Chancery Stafford of the In
ternational and Great Northern stated
while here yesterday that he thought the
receiye rship of that road would terminate
March II, the time fixed by Judge McCord
for final disposition of it, and that the road
would be reorganized and pass at once into
the hands of the new corporation, of which
it is presumed that Gould is the controlling
spirit.

AUSTIN, TEX, March 4-Judge Reagan
was seen this evening. by a GAZETTE
reporter in reference to the Watts inter-

mistake about it and he had written Judge
Watts to know whether he was correctly
reported. His relations with Judge Watts
had, he said, been always friendly, and he
did not think the judge would purposely
place him in false light.
at seems" said he, that they are de-
termined TO make me out as great a railroad
lobbyist as some others we hear Of" The
judge said that when the question of com
promising the bond question with the In
ternational and Great Northern was agi-
tating the public mind, he with a great
many others, among them Governor Coke,
who agreed with him for time at least,
thought that if the grant of 100000
worth of bonds could be compromised for
81, 100000 the state should do so. Said he:
Il was opposed to open Reputation
as diShonorable and thought as a citizen
that the state should make the best trade it
could. I, with others, favored the compro-
mise mentioned. The state saw fit to give
the road twenty sections of land to the
mile with exemption from taxes for
twenty-five years. The taxes alone on the
land granted would almost if collected
equal the amount 1 thought should be
given.n
