$4,000 FRENCH PEOPLE swINDLED

Natural Child Advertisements.

BY One Family Through Matrimonial ana
Natural Child Advertisements.
PARIS, Oct ga. M. Beauvais, his wife
and son, were sentenced to-day to one years
imprisonment each for having defrauded
vast number of persons through matri.
moniaI bureau and by the "natural child"
trick. The amount obtained by the family
fraudulently is in the hundreds Of thou
sands. The Beauvais family is the most en-
terprising gang of matrimonial swindlers on
the continent More than 1000 persons who
have been defrauded by them complained to
the Paris police, and Il, 900 or 5000 more
are believed to have swallowed their cha
grin and their losses without protest.
The method of NJ. Beauvais was to ad-
vertise in a popular newspaper that "a
young orphan possessing 100000 francs
would marry a serious gentleman. Apply
to II. C. Poste Restante, Lyons" The
SON of Beauvais acted independently. He
invented the natural child" trick, which
was to promise BY advertisement 200 francs
a month for the board of natural child
plus 25, 900 francs when the child reached
its majority. All information was to be
sent in exchange for 10 francs. Of course,
when people sent 10 francs they never heard
any more about the "natural child" The
number of dupes made bv this young man
NAV be Judged from the fact that when the
police arrested him 600 letters, half OF which
number contained 10 francs, were awaiting
him at the post Office.

LONDON, Oct. 22-[ CopyriqM l-Whss
promises to be the greatest strike in all his
tory, growing out of the Lancashire cotton
trade troubles, is now apparently inevita-
BILE. On November 8 $4,000 operatives will
leave their looms and 16, ,00O, 900 or 17,OOo,-
900 spindles will become silent.
The issue has been described, but it can
be restated in a word The manufacturers
insist on per cent reduction in wages
The operatives admit that the market
is so unfavorable that their employ
ers are in some difficulties, and
they offer to submit to some reduction In
hours and corresponding reduction in pay.
They will not accept less money for present
services. Efforts to reach an agreement
have been long continued, but they are now
abandoned.
Never was a labor battle so carefully pre-
pared for and with both sides so thoroughly
equipped and organized. The operatives
have the strongest and wealthiest
organization in the world. Their re-
sources are so great that they can
remain idle for several weeks without
actual suffering. For the first time In Eng
land the employers are also in a compact

troll of half the spindles In the
whole cotton trade. They will really
gain strength from a certain term
of non-production, so the struggle,
from the present outlook, has no terrors for
them. A few mills in the combination VIII
probably pay the fine which the rules of
the Master Cotton Spinners Federation
impose on its members and delay the en-
forcement of the reduction for some little
time after November 8.
The battle will probably be bloodless
one for long time. At least, the opera
tiyes are intelligent and they have shown
no bitterness in the dispute. Thus far in
most of the cities and towns which are af-
fected the cotton mills furnish almost the
sole local industry. There will, therefore.
be clear field for great, well-balanced
campaign which cnnnot fail to command
the attention and interest of all the world

Threats Of Anarchistic Uprisings-A Sad
State Of Affairs.
IBY CABLE TO THE DIsPATcH.1
LONDON, Oct 22.-The threatening cry
of the unemployed in London has sounded
loud above the diminished roar of trade this
week. The crisis already indicated in this
correspondence is fast becoming para
mount evil. Meetings are now held daily
at Tower Hill, which is the popular forum
until Mr.. Asquith's decision gives back
Trafalgar Square for that purpose next
month.
Very violent language marks these gather
ings of the idle. Their leaders declare that
there are 90, 900 in enforced idlensss in the
East End alone. The speakers announce
that they are 'now determined to fight,
and that ''the starving poor are about to
rise."
There has been distinct melting to revolt
in Trafalgar Square on November 9. Revo-
luton is an open cry of these people, half
of whom are Anarchist loafefs. Some Of
their meetings are not without violence.
On Thursday q speaker denounced man in
the crowd as spy who had betrayed the
WalsalI Anarchists. There was q rush for
the fellow and cries of "Knife him" He
would hardly have escaped with his life
had it not been for the presence OF many
policemen in plain clothes, who hustled the
victim out of the way.
Resolutions passed by these meetings de-
mand that the County Council shall fur
nish work. There will be partial re-
Spouse to this demand, if possible. The
police have been directed to make q thor
- nhn,, ~
London to learn those who are abel
to give work, temporary or permanent,
during the winter.
Another pitiful form of appeal is that the
city shall supply food to the 40, 900 children
who 20 hungry to school every morning.
The policy of social legislation which Joseph
Chamberlain has announced is intended to
make the labor leaders well disposed toward
him. 1t is denied, however, that this unofficial
announcement has any OF the significance OF
certainty. Mr. Chamberlain is an avowed
Socialist, and nothing is SO abhorrent to the
Tory mind as any form of that heresy, SO
Mr.. Chamberlain declaration in favor OF
eight-hour la<s and other pronounced meas
ures is not to be taken a. representative.
There is no denying, however, that So.

ls already committed to the purchase and
operation of street railways and the con.
struction OF public works by direct EN-,
ployment OF labor and purchase of materi-
| ais instead of through contractors 1t will

well as water, gas and electricity to the in

As a Congressman While on the Retired
List of the q. 8. Army.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-Henry II. Smith,
an authority on matters of parliamentary
law, has made examination of laws and pro-
ceedings of Congress relating to the ques-
tion of the eligibility TO Congress OF
retired army officers. He finds
the question it its present form
a new and unprecedented one, though there
have been some cases of correlative
character. He says that it has never been
claimed but once in the history of our Gov
ernment that under the clause of the Consti-
tuition making each House of Congress the
Judge of the qualifications of its
own members the House of Representa-
tiyes, acting alone, had power
to add to or change the qualifications OF its
membera That attempt, made IN the tenth
Congress, in the case of Barney versus
McCreery, resulted in such signal failure
that it has never been repeated
As a result of his examination, Mr.
Smith concludes that General Sickles,
while on the retired list of the army, Is in
eligible to election to Congress.

NJ. Loubets Task of Settling the Carmaux

IBY CABLE TO THE DIsPAToH.1
LONDON, Oct 22-The French Govern
ment has met and overcome, or rather post
poned, the crisis raised by the Carmaux
strike. NJ. Loubet has, in fact, but in
creased his embarrassment by undertaking
to umpire the issues between the miners
and their employers in that now famous
struggle. There is no dispute as to facts.
1t is question solely of motive on the
part of the employing corporation.
The strikers say their leader, Calvignac,
was discharged because he was elected
Mayor. The corporation officers say they
dismissed him for neglect of duty. That
he did neglect his duty to an outrageous
extent is not denied. There is, therefore,
really nothing to arbitrate and NJ. Loubet's
dilemma is almost pitiful. IF he decides
for the company it will almost precip itate a
socialistic uprising in France. Ii he de-
cides for the strikers the whole influence of
law and order and property interests of the
nation will be turned against the Govern

A woMAN's WONDERFUL RIDE

She Covers eco Miles of Mountainous
Country in 81 L. Hours.
VIENNA, Oct. PA remarkable feat of
horsemanship has just been performed by
woman. This is long-distance ride on
horseback, which, considering the many
difficulties encountered, and the rugged and
mountainous nature of the country, was
made in very good time. The equestrienns
is Miss Tomasson, q young English woman.
The start was made from Innsbruck. Thence
she rode to the town of Betson, at the con-
fuence of the Taller and Eisach, IS miles
from Trent. Passing through Betson she
proceeded to St Valentine and thence to
Landeck, in Prussian Silesia, at which
point half her journey was accomplished.
Miss Tomsseon then retraced her route,
returning to Innsbruck by the same road,
which sbe followed ON the first half of her
ride. She reached the goal in compara-
lively good condition, and her arrival was
greeted by large crowd OF admirers, who
enthusiastically showered her with praise.
The entire distance ridden over by Miss
Tomasson, was 220 miles, and was covered
in the surprisingly short time of 67H hours.
She rode the same horse throughout her
Journey. The task was made more note
worthy BY the fact that Miss Tomssson had
not previously undergone any training.

Portion of the Blame for His Crime
Placed on the Governor of Illinois for
Pardoning Him Out of Joliet Prison.
rBY CABLE TO THE pIspArcH.l
LONDON, Oct. 22.-No criminal case since
the Jack-the-Ripper atrocities has aroused
such universal interest as the trial Of Neill,
who was condemned yesterday and who will
hang probably on Monday fortnight His
conviction was foregone conclusion, but
he was poorly defended. The only possible
chance to save his neck was not availed or
1t is an open question whether the wretch
is sane, but the point was not seriously
raised BY his counsel. His detection was
due to his own repeated acts of stupidity.
The motive, blackmail, was an absurd
one in the manner in which it was mani
tested. His letters sent to persons OF good
standing, accusing them of the murder OF
women they never saw, were turned over TO
the police as matter OF course, ana 1he
detectives regarded them as such palpable
evidence of insanity on the part of the
writer that, as they testified at the trial,
they did not make more than perfunctory
inquiry about them. But this point was
not urged on the prisoners behalf The de-
fense contended itself with assailing the case
of the prosecution at its strongest point,
that of identification.
Of course the man was convicted. No
more complete proof of guilt was ever Of
tered in a court of law That the prisoner.
in the face of overwhelming evidence, hon.
estly expected to be acquitted is another in
dication of his abnormal mental condition.
He was sanguine to the point of nonchalant
indifference, down to the last hour of the
trial Then, in the midst OF the Judges
charge, the conviction seemed suddenly to
come upon him that he was doomed man.
The transformation in him was starting.
He lost his listlessness and leaned forward
over the rail of the dock with a face sudden
ly grown hsggard and white. Perspiration
started from every pore and dripped from
his chin upon his fingers, which gripped
the bar. A few moments later he was
seized with the malady which military men
saw is often the effect on soldiers, of great
fear when about to 60 into battle. The
proceedings were stopped while he was
taken from the court room for few mo-
ments.
Nobody knows, save the man himself, the
number of Neill's victims. That he has
killed "a in London and three in America
is certain. The mistaken clemency of the
Governor of Illinois in pardoning Neill
from the Joliet prison, where he was serv-
ing life sentence, is in sense responsible
for four of these deaths 1t is not improb-
able that there are other deaths, both in
England and America, supposed to have
been natural but really due to the fend's
strychnine capsules. The execution will
be private and nobody expects confession.

NoRRIsTowN, Oct. 22-Alfred Schneck
and Oliver Schneck, Isborers Of Sumney-

charging them with the murder OF Lucas
Smith, tramp well known IN the
upper end of this county. Several weeks
ago Smith, after indulging in protracted
spree, slept in the haymow of the hotel at
sumneytown. That night, it is alleged, the
Schnecks entered the barn, dressed in sheets
and white caps, and beat and kicked Smith
into insensibility. On the morning OF Do
tober IA he was found dead in bed.
The attending physician attributed death
to apoplexy, and the remains were given
respectable burial last Sunday. BY that
time rumors of the brutal assault OF the
Schnecks began to spread and both disap,
neared. The matter.seemed to have quieted
down, and they returned to their homes,
when their arrest followed.
