VALIANT A VERY COOL VILLAIN.
The Bomb Thrower Receives
His Sentence Like MARTYR,
ne interrupts the Judge to Say That It
was Not His Fault That no Deputies
were injured-He Gives the Lie Co the
witnesses Against Him and Describes
tho Manufacture OF the Boms usea
In the Chamber.

PARIS, Jan. 10.-Auguste Valiant.
the anarchist who threw the bomb in
the chamber of deputies on December O
last. WAS tried before President Judge
Gaze and 3 jury in the assize court to-
day, convicted, and sentenced to death.
Policemen, in couples and threes, were
stationed every zen yards around the
immense block occupied by the palace
OF justice in which the court sits. Every
door of the palace was shut and guarded
by sentinels with fixed bayonets. No
body was admitted unless they had
special card Of identity.
The cynosure OF all eyes was the pris-
oner, who stood in the dock with an Of
hcer on each side of him. He was, like
kavechol, entirely self.possessed and
gazed about the courtroom as though he
gloried In the interest he was creating.
throughout the day he never lost his
attitude OF defiance and self-iustiffca-
ton.
In reviewing the details OF the bomb
throwing Judge Gaze said the people
who had been hurt the most were not
mem oers OF the chamber of deputies but
spectators OF the proceedings.
That was not my fault" retorted
valiant. The deputies are in the
highest degree responsible for the So
cial misery prevailing. 1t was them
meant should feel the responsibility.
When questioned as to his attempt to
escape during the confusion following
the explosion, Valiant denied the story
that a sentin ell had stopped him at the
door by threatening to pierce him with
his bayonet If he advanced q step. The
prisoner declared energetically that he
aid not wish to flee and even If he had
1t would have been utterly I'm apostolic
for him to have done SO because he was
wounded in the leg.
lie gave the lie to witnesses against
him and held strongly to his pose of
martyr in the cause OF huma nifty. The
only regret he had was that he had been
Obliged to injure irresponsible parsons
in his crusade.
Describing the manufacture of the
bomb Valiant declared that, owing to
the dimensions Of his apparatus he had
the alternative of putting in large
number of small proiectiles, which
would wound many persons slightly, or
small number that would do more
offectiv work lie choose the former
plan, so that the projecsiles would kill
few people.
valiant admitted that he had been
condemned five times for petty thefts,
but, he added, mendicancy and theft
were the necessary results of the pres
ent social condition Of the poor

avenues of commerce, aud fear fell on
all men, rich and poor aliks.
Dalsell concluded his speech at 1855.
The remainder Of the days session was
occupied by Warner and Coonbs of New
York in speeches in favor OF the pond
ing bill. AT $40 the com mdttee rose
and the House took a recess until 8
O'Clock.
AIT the evening session OF the House
there was only about ten Representa-
tives present. Last week when the
Democratic caucus was in session a
recognition was made of the Populist
party, and TO- night for the first time in
history Populist, in the person OF Jerry
Simpson, occupied the chair.
Snodgrass (Dem., Tenn } was the first
speaker In favor OF the Wilson bill, but
large part OF his remarks were given
up to a criticism of the pending meas
ure. Snodgrass was followed by Mahon
lRep Pa, }, who attacked the pending
Dill, as so did Curtis, of Kansas. These
three gentlemen occupied all the time
OF the evening session, and at 1890 the
House adjourned.

The Cause for the Delay In Erecting Pub
lie Buildings Considered.


lie Buildings Considered.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-There was
nothing else Of interest in the Senate
proceedings to-day except little dis
cussion that sprung up on the question
OF why the erection Of public buildings
for which past Congresses have made ap-
propriatons mas not been commenced
and carried on.
ReHer assigned as a reason the made
Quate force in the office Of the superyis
ing architect of the Treasury, and Cor
man giving the depleted condition of
treasury as the real reason. He stated,
In that connection, that the aggregate
appropriations made by Congress in the
last three years exceeded the aggre-
gate revenues CT the Government dur
ing the sa me period by moro than 5000,
O00,O00 and said that If Senators wanted
public works to be carried on, they mus
either authorize Treasury loan or in
crease the revenues from taxation.
The resolution which Frye offered in
the Senate week ago, and which mas
since been lying on the table, declariug n
policy OF non intervention in the gov
eminent affairs of Hawaii, was taken
up, and was made the basis OF a three
hours speech by Davis (Rep.. Minn.)
In which the action of Blount and tho
administration WAS criticised, but with.
out asperity, the action of Minister
Stevens commended and the overthrow
OF tue queens government defended and
justified.
The speech was not concluded, and

period OF twenty years. In default of
SIS, 600 bail. he was committed to prison
to answer the charges before the United

Baker first went to tho bank in the
capacity OF runner. His attention and
apparent faithfulness brought it's re-
ward, and he has been gradually pro
NOTED until in 1891 he was made paving
teller.
short time ago book keeper named
Van Dusen discovered that his books
had been falsified, and he found short
age of $4,000 The discovery and
probable suspicion that might fall on
him 80 worried him that he fell i'll, and
while siok he coniided the matter to
his physician, and at the same time
protested his innocence.
The physician called at the bank
yesterday and told Van Dusen's story to
the officers. President James j, Watson
called meeting Of the board of direc-
tors and they met this morning Baker
was called in and at once confessed he
was the guilty man. He said that he had
been stealing in small amounts for 90
years and that the total OF his defalca-
ton was about SAT, 900.
Baker said that he had never gambled
or speculated and the money he took all
went towards supporting his family.
His salary as paying teller was 81, 500
year.
