THE FRENCH CRISIS.

M. Brisson Not Yet Able to Form a
M1nistry-A Better Prospect OF a
Settlement.
PARIS, Dee. IN. Brisson, who has
been intrusted by President Carnot with
the formation of a new ministry, has not
yet succeeded in his undertaking. Up to
noon to-day the cabinet was incomplete,
bnt Nj. Brisson is continuing his efforts to
secure ministry that will be able to carry
the country safely through the dangers
now confronting it.

scrutinize not alone the doings of those
prosecuted in the Panama scheme, but the
history of M. de Lesseps in fnanciering
the Suez Canal, much will be publicly
learned about him that will give the world
new perception of his character.
It would be shown that the Suez
canal was much less a triumph of en-
cheering than of interruptions financing
and that it could never have been fnan-
cially successful unless M. De Lesseps had
been backed by the murderous cupidity of
the Egyptian viceroy, Ismail Pasha. The
Suez Canal WAS made with forced labor.

sion.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-The condition of
Jay Gould is alarming, and at his resi-
dence at II o'clock tonight it was stated
that the patient had become worse during
the evening, and was then very low. DR..
Mum, the family physician, was in at

refused to furnish any information for
publication about the nature of Mr..
Gould's illness. George Gould and his
wife were hastily called to the mansion
this evening, and will remain there to-
night.
At midnight it was stated that Mr..
Gould was unconscious. An hour later he
was still in the same state.
The alarming symptoms in MIR. Gould e
case are hemorrhages of the stomach.
The first of these is said to have
occurred on November %, since when
there have been several. Because of
these hemorrhsges DR.. Edward G. Janewsy
was called in consultation on Wednesday.
The patient is suffering, also, from neural.

LITERARY FORGERIEs.

Wholesale Forgery of Literary and
Historic Documents - Some of the
Suspected Manuscripts.
LONDON, Dec. IA sensation has been
created in the literary world by the discov-
cry at Edinburgh of system of Wholesale
forgery of autograph literary and historic
documents. The discovery was due to the
publication of an alleged manuscript poem
by Burns. This poem was found to be a
reprint of a fugitive magazine that ap-
peared when Burns was only seven years
old. A number of antiquarian booksellers
of the highest repute have unconsciously
circulated the forge1ies, which included a
parchment copy of "The Solemn League
and Covenant" which, if genuine, would
be of untold value; and letters purporting
to have been written by Burns, Scott,
Thaokeray, Burke, Cromwell, Carlyle and
Mary, Queen of Scots. There is reason to
suspect that the collection of manuscripts
of Burns poems presented in 1850 to the
city of Edinburgh by Mr.. Kennedy, the
New York banker. are not genuine.

THE SILVER CONFERENCE.

Reported Indecision of the Commit
tee-Probable Rejection of All the
Proposals-Attitude of the Ameri.
can Delegates.
BRUSSELS, Dec. 1.-The committee to.
day continued to consider the report they
will make to the conference.
The American delegates maintain re-
serve as to their attitude on the De Roth
schild plan. They believe that, whatever
the result of the conference may be, the
general discussion will have and is having
great effect in educating the European
delegates on the currency question. One
of the American delegates, who Is a
banker, Is doing all he can to promote the
various proposals., under the belief that 1t
will be necessary for the United States to
rescind the silver purchase act and to wait
until Europe shall have reached an agree
ment in regard to silver.
Whatever proposals are mooted, there is
small danger that the American delegates
will get entangled in any of them.
It Is understood this evening that re-
port has been drawn up by M. Raffalovitch
| of the Russian delegation, aud of the spec
| ial committee appointed to consider the
different proposals and report them to-
morrow, which will explain that the com
| mittee has not come to final discussion
! and that the views of the individual man
| bers of the committee will be given. Thes,
are generally not favorable to Mr:.Dt
Rothschild's plans. The chief difficulties
encountered were the price at which silvel
should be sold. Nobody now believes
that De Rothschild's plan will lead to 6

from the plan which G. F. Tietsen, tn
Danish delegate will probably submit. TIL
whole work of the congress will be devote;
to the question of international bimetall
ism, which the Americans are determined
shall be thoroughly discussed.

THE NICARAGUA CANAL

-
Senator Morgan's Speech in Favor
of Congressional Aid-Kesolutions
Adopted-Appointm of an Execu-
tive Committee.
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 1.-Senator Morgan,
chairman of the senate committee on for.
eign relations, began his speech to the
Nicaragusn canal convention shortly after
11-o'clock this morning. The speech has
been looked forward to as tine backbone of
the present widespread agitation to influ-
enoe the action of congress. Senator Nor
gan declared this morning that he thought
there would be another convention and
that the effect of the movement would be
tremendous. In his speech the senator in
sisted that the present senate bill provid-
ing for the endorsement of 500, 1000, 900 of
bonds should be pressed to passage. He
said that the canal company was willing
to donate to the government of the United
States $40, 900, 900 of the bonds in order
to lodge the control of the canal in Wash
ington.
The senator gave it as his opinion that
the concession of a neutral strip of land
along the canal by Nicaragua would prove
to be really the cession of 80 much terri
tory to the United States. 1t was simply
a question now whether the advocates of
the canal could modify the bill now in
Washington to meet the views of con-
gress.
The afternoon session was consumed in
ten-minute addresses. Then the conven-
ton adopted the following resolutions:
THAT it is the paramount duty of this
government to aid in the construction of
the Nicaragua canal.
2-That this convention respectfully
urges the congress of the United States to
take such steps and give such financial aid
as will insure the speedy completion of
said canal at the minimum cost thereof,
taking proper security for any credit
pledged or money advanced for this pur-
pose, and retaining such control and super
vision of the same as will insure the peace
full use of this great enterprise to the COM
merce of the world at the lowest possible
rates.
An executive committee was appointed,
which includes Messrs. Norton, Clerque
and Pearl of Maine.
The convention then adjourned sine die.
