REACTION IN FRANCE.
Enemies of the Republic Involved IN the
Panama Scandal.

Enemies of the Republic Involved IN the
Panama Scandal.
PARIS, Jan. H.-There is profound relief
in republican circles over the statement of
Charles De Lesseps duplicating Arthur
Meyer, editor of the Gaulois. as having re-
ceived 100000 francs from the Panama
canal company. This at least brings the
royalists into the draw net and shows what
the friends of the republic have ella imed
from the beginning, that the republican
officials and journalists did not have a
monopoly of the Panama corruption. The
fact that four BoulanRist deputies are said
evidence before Franqueville is also con-
sidered as Strengthening the cause of the re-
public BY showing the Hypocrisy of those
who nssall it in the pretended interest Of
better government.
The government has also been considera-
bly, strengthened by the speech of Chancs!-
lor Caprivi on the German army bill. This
has in large degree diverted attention
from the Panama affair ana aroused deep
interest in foreign concerns of France an
in the necessity of Frenchmen standing to-
gether against enemies abroad. The situa-
tlon to-day is therefore improved. and al
though the Figaro published sensational
article signed by Editor-in Chief Maynard,
uIoing Carnot in the interests of tho re-
public. to resign. very little is heard of the
adverse criticism upon the president.
Attention was called to the fact that
Gaulois recently printed the malignant
story that Mime. Carnot made gifts to the
poor out of Panama funds. There is not a
word of truth in the assertion. Several
projects from the interior attended at the
ministry of the interior to-day in order to
receive strict instructions to deal promptly
with all attempts made by enemies of the
republic. A prominent republican says:
1.-The great object of the reactionists Of al /
parties is now to disgust CRrnot with the
exercise of power, and get him TO resign
before the election of new chamber Of
deputies. This chamber just now stands
too badly in the eyes of the country for
the president elected by it to have great
weight in the eyes of the nation"

time TO take this action, but tho opposition

For an American Pope.

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-The London CORE
spondent of morning paper cables tho
following to-day: "A significant rumor
comes from the foreign Office concerning
Catholic church affairs. II declared that
the British minister in Rome informed the
government through Lord Roseherry that
the vatican is greatly disturbed over the
condition of affairs in the United States.
Archbishop Vaughn had been communi-
Gated with. it is alleged. to the effect that
very great peril menaces the interests of the
pope in the United States. As far as can
be ascertained. a plot was discovered
having as Il basis the separation of the
ohur oh in America from the mother church
in Rome. and tho creation of an independ-
ent body with a head selected by American
bishops. The idea seems to be the creation
of a body similar in aome respects TO the
G eek church of Russia. DIR. Vaughan had
declined TO discuss tho matter, but il IL
known that he has given certain counsel
tending to oounteract the alleged conspiracy
10 create an American pope for America"

OPPOSITION GIVING WAY.
The Army Bill II Sure to Pass the Reich
Ataf.

stag.
BERLIN, Jan. 1.-THE opposition IL now
beginning to admit that the army bill has u
chance OF passing the reichstnR. Among
the proposals relative to the bill discussed
in the iobbies to-day WAS the suggestion
that ths new organization OF the army
should not be enforced Immediately upon
the bill becoming law. but that the changes
proposed should extend over ssveral years
in execution. With this concession the
rsichstag could vote the first installInent
necessary to reorganization and pledge
! itself to accede to other installments
within fixed time. In officigi circles the
question now is not whether tho govern
ment will get majority, but how large ths
majority will be. All things considered
| the bill aeema practically safe.
| The effect OF the chancellor's speech be-
fore tho fcichstag committee abroad is
| eagerly watched here. kilograms from st .
| Petersburg received to-day state that the
| chancelior's words made the worst sort of
impression there. The revulsion Of friendly
feeling entertained for the German govern
Inent will be intense unless Chancellor Won
Caprivi officially explains his remarks re-
gardinR Russia and Dcnmark. The speech
| ls hailed at Viennn and Buda Pest 40 eg-
tablishino greater confidence on the part of
the Austrian government In Won Caprivi
than WAS ever felt in Prince Bismarck.
The movement inauRursted against the
privileges enjoyed by the bureaucracy is
stirring tho middle classes of Prussia.
Prnssian officials are exempt from any tax
alton except the direct income tax. Ont
side of the officeholdinR class this is be-
lieved to be an injustice and meetings have
been held in u number Of places to protest
against the exemption.
The fourteenth congress OF delegates
from German seaports opened to-day. Az
the first step toward Russian German COM
inercial entente the st. Petersburg govern
ment Is about to cancel the decree prohib-
iting Russian railway companies from buy
ing material abroad. The feeling in the
Russian court because Of Chancellor Won
CaprivIs speech may alter the position.
The socialists of Magdeburg have pro-
claimed boycott against the brewers of
that place for forming a union for protec-
ton against socialists, who were boycott
ting single brewers. The quarrel threatens
to assume proportions outside Of the ques-
tions involved.
