TROUBLED FRANCE.

gem Of royalists against the repub-
PARIS, January 1.-THE officials
of the Government will soon attack
the royalists who are plotting the
overthrow of the republic. The
Count of Paris is at the head of the
conspiracy, and his friends have been
working in Madrid and London.
The Government, through its spies,
is aware of all the moves of the
royalists, and is prepared to check
any demonstration. The Count of
Paris is not himself managing any
of the details, and it is not desired
that he should, but his leading rep
resentatives are more active than
ever.
The royalist plan appears to be to
overthrow the republic by some
means, no matter what the means
are, and to foment and promote dis
order in the hope that the French
people will turn to the Count of
Paris or the Duke of Orleans for
rescue or protection.
There is no doubt that as far as
the extreme socialists are concerned
lawlessness is again in the ascendant
and this exactly suits the royalist
plotters. Dynamite, rioting and ter
rorism are regarded as aids by the
plotters. The fact that NJ. Andrieux
started to-day for London is looked
upon as evidence that he is after
more ammunition and that, so far as
the charges against the Government
are concerned, the original stock has
been exhausted.
The courtroom was not thronged
when the trial of Charles de Lesseps
and his associates was resumed to-
day. Acknowledgement Rau opened
for the prosecution. He said that
out of 30OOOO,OOO francs first obtain
ed three-fifths was illegally disposed
of. The capital of the company was
so laid open to plunderers that in all
70O,OOO,0O0 francs was squandered,
besides the sums expended in actual
ly carrying out the legitimate objects
of the company. He proceeded to
analyze and criticise the sums paid
out in the remuneration of the direc-
tors of the company, the American
committee and other high officials.
MORE TROUBLE WITH EGYPT.
The Khedive of Egypt has changed
his Ministry without having obtain
ed the assent of the British authori-
ties, who therefore decline to recog-
nize the new Cabinet. The Khe-
dives action is believed to be in
fuenced by Russia and France. The
British authorities await instructions
from London.
A hurriedly convened Cabinet
council was held in London on the
18th. The unexpected call for a
conference caused decided sensa-
ton, and it was correctly coniectured
THAT action was to be taken in regard
to the sudden spirit of independence
displayed by the Khedive of Egypt.
A long telegram from Cromer, the
British representative at Cairo, was
received at the Foreign Office. Soon
after the Russian and French En-
bassadors and the German Charge
d'Ahaires called upon Lord Rose
berry, the Foreign Minister, and a
somewhat heated conversation took
place. NJ. Washington, the French
ambassador, and M. Staal, the Rus
sian ambassador, were subsequently
closeted with the Prime Minister for
some time.
The Cabinet council rose at 6:35
O'Clock, having resolved unanimous
ly to treat the Khedive with the ut
most frmness. The Ministers de-
cided to inform him in distinct
manner that his position as the ruler
of Egypt depends upon the good
will of Great Britain, and that the
British Government will refuse to
recognize the reactionary Ministry
he has appointed.
1t is reported that Cromer's mes
sage attributed the action of the
Khedive to concerted Russian,
French and Turkish intrigues.
The Cairo correspondent of the
Daily News says: The British re-,
preventative had an audience with
the Khedive this afternoon and pre-,
sented an ultimatum demanding the
dismissal of the new Ministry within
twenty-four hours. The Khedive
convened the Council and presided
in person. At the Khedive's request
Fakri Pasha resigned.
