UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE.
Belgian Workmen Gain the OBJ
ject of Their Gigantic
Strike.
Fear of a General Uprising
Causes the Lawmakers
to Act.


BRUSSELS, April 19.-The chamber of
representatives reassembled after the
preparation of the reports on the revis-
ion of the constitution and by vote of
119 against IL, with IA abstentions from
voting, adopted universal suffrage, with
a provision for plural voting by the
classes owning property, according to
the amount and situation of the prop
erty. Cheers within the chamber were
followed by prodigious acclamations
from the enormous crowd that awaited
the result of the voting outside the
chamber. The greatest enthusiasm was
displayed everywhere, and the people
Joined in Jubilee
in honor of the great triumph which
they had achieved. 1t is expected that
the decision in favor Of universal stuff
rage will have an allaying effect upon
the popular excitement and agitation
which had been rapidly assuming the
dimensions of general instruction.
The dread of terrible uprising of the
people, similar to that of the French
revolution in its resistless rage against
privilege and power, had the effect of
bringing the chamber of representatives
around to the popular side. There is
no doubt in many minds that had the
chamber not acted promptly there
would have been revolution in Brus-
sells.
At meetings of the strikers in and
around Client and Mons, resolutions to
return to work were passed. Two men
injured in the Mons riot died during
the evening. In all seven men have
died in Mons from injuries received in
the suffrage riots.

Minnesota Pine Frauds.


Minnesota Pine Frauds.
WASHINGTON, April 19.-It leaks ont
that the president is behind the activity
in the interior department tending
toward the exposure of pine land plum
dering. Cleveland is well informed
about the entire matter, not only super
ficially, but in detail as to how jobs are
put up; where pine is that is being COB
bled; where frauds exist, and what he
can do to stop it. In the presidents
work room is big pile of maps on card
board showing sections in which vari-
Gus abuses are said to exist. He indi-
Gated to Secretary Smith that he
wanted this matter thoroughly investi-
gated, and it viii be necessary to evade
President Cleveland's express directions
if he fails to go to the bottom. AL
ready great deal of pressure is being
brought to bear to prevent the general
government going into the case. Let.
tiers from ST. Paul have been received
beittling the entire matter. Congress,
man Baldwin says he is satisfied the
pine barons are doing all possible te
make the Minnesota legislatures inves-
tigation farce. This is done to dis.
credit the case with Cleveland and the
Washington officials.
