SENATE SUMMONED.
Serious Trouble Ahead for the
French Cabinet.
Over the Colonial Ministry Scheme
a Serious Crisis Has Sud-
denly Arisen.

PARIS, March 1S.-The Senate has been
summoned at 2 o'clock tomorrow. A
meeting of the Cabinet tonight was held,
at which was drafted statement that will
be read in the Senate regarding the pro-
posed establishment Of Ministry Of the
Colonies. The Ministers submitted the
statement to President CarnOt.
LONDON, March 18.-The correspondent
at Paris IF the Daily News says a crisis
has arisen there which is unprecedented
since the present constitution. A number
of Senators objected in hot haste regarding
the establishment of Ministry of the
Colonies, and agreed that the matter must
be postponed until Parliament met again.
Immediately after the adjournment
Prime Minister Casimir-Perier went
around the lobbies saying he coul1 not
govern unless he had a free hand. and that
he was determined to place colonial affairs
on new and better footing by the crea-
tion OF a Ministry. If he could not name
the Minister Immediately he would re-
tire. The Prime Minister spoke as il he
thought they wanted to force him to
retire.
A Senator has just said to me: 81 think
NJ. Perier will accept the situation under
the conditions accompanying the Senate's
refusal to vote the grant Immediately, but
will wash his hands of all responsibility
which he fears will be the consequences of
the vote"
The Times Paris correspondent says
The creation of Colonial Ministry is a
political act IF the most serious aud COM
plicated order, as such a ministry must
possess departments according to the great
ministeries of commerce, marine. foreign
affairs and war, all working together with
out friction. In order to accomplish this
everything must be fixed beforehand and
nothing left vague. The Senate under
stood this and refused to pass at such a
breskneck pace a bill requiring long con-
sideratiOn.
1t Is impossible not to render justice to
the prudence and wisdom Of the Senate in
refusing to be party in the hasty action
of the Chamb ber of Deputies as we'll as the
Government 1t does not suggest that but

But the Minister. who seemed preOccupIed
with the thought of quitting power with

power, would not suffer the Senate To act

it is requested. But there will be no ind-

LONDON, March 1S.-This city has for a
comparatively long time been exem pt from

by The discovery of a crime that, in its de-
tails, somewhat resent bies the notorious
Gouffe murder that occurred some time
ago in Paris. The scene of this latest

A woman named Hutchins, who lodged
with the Hermann woman. on Friday
found bloodstains in a sink and spoke to
the Hermann woman about il. The latter
passed the matter off lightly, but on Satur-
day she changed her lodgings. taking better
apartments in Marylebone street. She took
with her heavy trunk which she asked
should be carefully handled.
In the meantime the suspicious of the
Hutchins woman were aroused owing to
the bloodstains found in the sink. In ad-
dltion il became noisrd about the house
that the man who had gone to the woman's
room had not been seen TO leave it. The
HutchiDs woman followed the Hermann
woman when she moved, and, after learn
ing her number, informed the police that
she suspected foul play had been done.
Officers went 10 the house on Marylebone
street where the Hermann woman had
taken up her residence, and search was
made of the apartments of her house.
Her trunk was in the room. The police
forced it open and found in il the body of
the missing man. His head had been bat
tered, evidently with some blunt instru-
meDt. The body presented frightful ap-
pearance, and the clothing in whtchit was
attired was drenched with blood. The
Hermann woman was taken into custody
on a charge of wllfull murder.
The body mas been recogn ICED as that OF
well-to-do ex-job cosIer named Stevens.
He was rs years old. 1t is believed the
Hermann woman had an accomplice, as
Stevens was muscular mau. 1t may be.
however, that he was killed while asleep.
The prisoner is 43 years old. She is ugly,
almost to responsiveness.

William Waldorf Astor Joins the
Swell Tory Club.

LONDON. March 1S.-The election of
William Waldorf Astor to mem bership In
the Carlton Club. the recognized head
quarters OF the extreme members of the
Tory rarty, was not by general ballot, but
by the political committee of the club,
which is permitted under special rule to
elect every year certain numb Der of per-
sons who have rendered especially dis
tinguished services to the Tory party.
The nature OF Astor's service 10 the party
is not officially announced, but it must
either be the SUI port of the Pail Mall
Gazette or very heavy subscription to
the party funds.
Before he became eligible 20 member
ship he must have signed declaration at
tested by two membars OF the club, speak
ing from their personal knowledge OF his
opinion and his acceptance of Tory princi-
pies. The circumstance naturally aroused
the conjecture that Astor really means to
apply for naturalization as British sub
ject, but an inquiry by World correspon-
dent at the proper uffice shows that be has
as yet taken no step to tha, end.

Mrs. John W. Noble was never social

Of the most attractive in that city of beau
tiful homes and refined people. She made
for herself literary coterie OF friends and
was universally recognized as its leading
spirit. In fact. she enjoyed the distinc-
ton of giving the most elaborate enter
tainments to people OF culture, and she
looked forward eagerly to similar life in
Washington. Mrs Noble, as Miss El "a

Hatfield Ealstead of Northampton, Mass.
The family were originally Quakers and
lived for generations in New York State.

ON A PORTUGUESE VESSEL.
No Attention Paid to Peixoto's
Demands.
THE ADMIRAL IN GREAT LUCK.
Having Evaded Death He Will Land
at Buenos Ayres and Join
De Mello.

Rio DE JANEIRo. March 1S-Judging
from the course of events here it is thought
oy Impartial observers that he Portuguese
government does not intend to honor the
request made upon it for the surrender of
Admiral da Cana. Da Cana took refuge
on the Portuguese corvette Mindello when
the lnsurrection collapsed. President
Peixoto demanded that the admiral and
the fficers with him be delivered into his
hands. The Portuguese Minister declined
to order the commander of the Mindello to
surrender the fugitives, and Peixrto APP
pealed. 1t is said, to the Portuguese Gov
eminent to instruct its Minister to order
thu surrender of the insurgent officers.
Whether reply has been received to
the request or not cannot be definitely
stated but this afternoon the Mindello
and the Albuquerque, another Portuguese
~arship, having on board Admiral Da
Cana and seventy of his officers, put to
sea. II had been thought is some quarters
that if the vessels attempted TO leave the
bay with the fugitives on board, trouble
would ensue.
There was not. however, the slightest
opposition to their departure, and as a
matter of fact, trouble from this source

the warships is not known. 1t is cnnjec-
tured they will go south to Mnntevideo
and land the insurgent officers there. If
they are landed at Montevideo. they can
easily, II they are so disposed, join the in
surgents liz San Paulo and Rio Grande do
Sui, who are still in armed opposition to
the Government.
The fact that Admiral da Cana and his
officers have succeeded in getting out or
the bay Is a matter of great rejoicing
among their friends here. There is no
doubt in the minds of anybody that had
the admiral been surrendered to the Govern
ment, mis- trial by p drumhead court
martial would have quickly followed.
There could have been only one result of a
trial of this kind. and that would have
been sentence of death.
Yellow fever continues epidemic The
death average is seventy a day.
BUENos AYRES, March 1S.-Advices
received here from Rio are IT, the effect
that Admiral da Cana and his officers will
be conveyed to this port by the Portu-
guese corvette Mindello. President Perxoto
has ordered the Brazilian Minister at
Buenos Ayres TO demand that the Govern
ment of the Argentine Republic consider
Admiral da Cana and his fficers pirates
and not allow them to disembark.

BRECKINRIDGE'S SIDE.
1t Will Take the Colonel Three
Days to Tell 1t.
His Version of the Scandal Will Be
the Chief Gun in the Defense
of the Suit.

WASHINGTON. March 18.-The legal
complications and side issues of the
Pollard -Breckinridge case, which are
gradually coming to light as the trial pro-
ceeds, increase the public interest here in
Washington, where the Kentucky orator
is best known, and make IL the most sensa-
lional case ever reviewed in the courts
here. Curiosity is rampant among the
lawyers as TO the line IF defense which the
array Of five will have made out for him.
For a tine after the revelation of the
secret marriage OF Colonel Breckinridge to
Mrs. Wing in New York on Aprii 90 was
made public il was the general opinion this
circumstance would form the basis for the
defense, but to-day The attorneys for Mr..
Breckenridge have intimaled to the con-
rrary. Even had they not said so it Is a
fact that promises of marriage alleged by
Miss Pollard TO have been made to her. ex-
cept the statements in the presence of
Major Moore, were before the date of the
clandestine marriage. Moreover. it seems
to be estn blished by preponderance of
the authorities that the promise to marry
Madeline Pollard made by married man
furnishes ground for breach-of-promise
action in case it is accepted in good fai h
by the other party, who is ignorant of the
legal disability to fulfill the contract.
The mystery of the defense will be
solved in few days, however. for it is the
present intention to place Colonel Breckin-
ridge on the witness-stand as the first wit
ness in his own behalf. 1t is evident bis
attorneys place THAR principal reliance
upon the story which he will tell, and from
their sanguIne state Of mind to-day il
seems probable they must have in reserve
resources which have not yet been made
public. That Colonel Breckinridge's re-
cital will be long one was foretold by
onr of his attorneys to-day, when he said
the defendant would doubtless be on the
winrss-sIand three days. The attorney
prophesied that the trial will continue for
two weeks. or maybe longer. He said that
the cross-examination of Miss Pollard
would consume two days more; thai
Brrckinridge would be on the stand three
days; that two days would be occupied In
