Paris Letter 70 London Telegrsrh
Maximin, French lion tanner, who recently
left the Paris winter circus for Lisbon, taking
with him five OF his animals, has been MORALLY
injured by one OF the wild beasts. He
had been giving performance in the lions
cage before a considerable number Of specta-
tors assembled IN the Lisbon circus, when, as
he was preparing to step out, q lioness called
Nelly few at him and nearly tore him to pieces.
Maximin struggled for nearly ten minutes with
the brute. twice seizing its tongue, but he be-
came faint through loss of blood. The honess
was shot through the heart by one of the circus
clowns. and Poisson, another French tanner,
succeeded in keeping in check the other animals
in the cage. Maximin. fearfully mangled and
lacerated, was carried, in dying state, 10 the
hospital. The affair caused panic in the cir
Gus, and the program Of the afternoon was pre-
maturely concluded by the ghastly scsnaI

through the American minister at Madrid in

said to be responsible for the disagreement
that for time threatened to result in
an abandonment of the visit altogether.
His conduct is described as unreason-
able and clearly undiplomatic to the extent
OF showing on his part fear that the execu-
tive of the United States would be lacking in
politeness in his treatment of the princess. The
public discussion of the question, while it was
a matter of negotiation, is cited as an illustra-

by him to show. as he expressed ii, that the

Investigating the Executive Departments.
All of the members Of the joint committee ap-
pointed by the last Congress for the purpose Of
investigating the methods of business in the ex-
ecutive departments are now in the city save
Mr.. Dingley, who is in Europe. The committee
is casting about for its experts, and as soon as
they have been selected will begin the active
work. These experts are to be men Of distin-
guished services, and no one who has had any
experience in the departments of the govern
ment will be employed. The work will be con-
fined to one department, and such changes in
existing methods may be deemed necessary
will be given test before proceeding to any Of
the other departments. No conclusion has
been reached as to which department will be
used as the test but there seems to be an i'm
preston that the Treasury will be selected.

MINNESOTA STREET SETTLE
MENT.

The long litigation between L. g..
M. Fletcher and the city has finally
been brought to a close. The council
held meeting with Mr.. Fletcher late
Saturday evening and the matter
was talked over. 1t was finally decid-
ed that the crooked street should be
opened and that the city shall pay
Mr.. Fletcher 81, 100 in the shape of a
note for one year, bearing seven per
cent. interest. All suit on both
sides are to be dropped, and Mr..
Fletcher is to donate whatever land is
necessary to open up Poplar street.
The opening of Minnesota street will
not cost the property anything, as
the city will pay the entire expense.
Each alderman gave his word to abide
by the settlement. 1t is doubtful
whether all Of the property owners
on Minnesota street will be satisfied
with the agreement, but it is stated
that a majority are favorable to it.
hhe litigation would have been long
and costly to both sides, and the re-
suit in considerable doubt. The suit
commenced by Mr.. Boode can be car
ried on. The settlement is certain
ly the Cheapest way out of the
case for the Minnesota street property
owners, as otherwise they would have
some heavy assessments to pay. But
they are the ones interested and their
wishes, whatever they are, should be
respected.
1t appears that the Supreme Court
decision regarding the St. Paul city
charter effecting the city's power to
to condemn land is applicable to Man.
kato, aud that therefore Mr.. Fletcher
was bound to be successful.
we learn this afternoon that the
residents of Minnesota street are gen.
orally opposed to the compromise, and
prefer to fight for the straight street.
Pressure may be brought on the
council before the next meeting to
cause it to reverse it's decision in
the matter, but in view Of the Su
preme court decision The council will
probably favor the settlement.
The price agreed upon was COM
promise, as the council wanted to pay
81 900, and Mr.. Fletcher wanted more.
