ragged citizens of Rome, a little town OF

sion he became a raving maniac. The

Democrat, proposed to hang Smith in
efhgy. Over 1000 people. irrespective OF

A platform was erected on the public land
ing and several speeches were made. After

the assurance that the kingdom would
oot be dismembered until after the con-
liberation by all powers concerned of
Frances demand for the territory between
the eighteenth and twenty-third parallels
1t is somewhat remarkable that before
Prince Vadhama, Siamese minister in
Paris, could have received his instructions
to accept the ultimatum, Great Britain's
refusal to recognize the blockade had be-
come known in this city.
The blockade is still maintained by the
Forfatt, Lotin, Inconstante. Comete and
Lion. The British warships Pallas and
Swift remain at the Mensm bar. inside
the blockade limits The British govern
ment mail has been allowed to pass, but
mercantile correspondence with Siamese
firms has been cut off. An effort is max
ing. therefore, to render efficient an over
land postal service via Tavoy and Ran
COON.
Rear Admiral Human has arrived at
Koh-si-Chang. NJ. Pavie remains at the
same port, as all negotiations subsequent
to the rupture have been carried on direct
ly with Paris.
The French have seized the Siamese
mail steamer Chantaboon and the Hong
Kong steamer Phra, Chula, with 400 Chi
nese aboard her. The Phra Chula eventu-
ally was allowed to land her passengers
and cargo At Bangkok. She will sail for
Hong Kong today.
OF the British steamers rendered idle by
the blockade 12 are in the trade with Hong
Kong, eight in the trade with Singapore
and one in the trade with Bombay.
