Published Interview With AM

a Sensation.
NEW DEPARTURE IN DIPLOMACY
Several Paris Newspaper Com
ment on the Alleged Ut
teranCeS.

LONDON, July 10.-Mr. f. De Blowitz,
the famous correspondent of the Lon
don Times, upon an alleged interview
with the United States ambassador to
France, Mr.. James B. Eustis, published
in The Figaro, said that such an inter-
view evidently constituted new de-
parture in diplomacy. In reference to
the utterances imputed to Mr. Eustis
regarding Canada, Mr. De Blowitz said
it would be difficult TO believe that the
ambassador represented friendly
nation
Several Paris newspapers also COM
ment on the alleged interview
The Estafette says that in it Mr..
Eustis admitted that the United States
supported Japan against France, Rus
sia and Germany; Canada against Eng
land, and Cuba against Spain, and that
the United States has ambitious COM
mercial ideas respecting Madagascar.
''All these acts and plans" the Esta-
fette comments, 'are contradictory of
the professions of the Monroe doctrine
and in complete forgetfulness of our
former fraternal relations, compels us
to anticipate that the future will be
darkened by disputes and misunder-
standings
The Libre Parole also severely ,criti-
cizes Mr.. Eustis, accepting the Figaro
interview as genuine, says the Ameri.
can ambassador has committed breach
of the laws of hospitality.

SIX HOURS IN WATER.

Chicago Young People Nearly Perish in
Plain View of Lincoln Park.
CHICAGO, July 1O.-A yachting party
of four people was rescued off Lincoln
Park at daylight after six hours spent
in the water clinging to the overturned
craft. The party consisted of two
young men and young woman and a
man-seryant who acted as skipper.
Allan Fowler, prominent young
attorney, started for sail with his
yacht Bowery, taking with him Miss
Emma Gibson, James Dalton and a
servant. The weather was delightful
and the sail was prolonged until late in
the evening. About 1890 o'clock as
the yacht neared Lincoln Park, the
people aboard were quietly resting on
deck, sudden gust of wind caught the
craft, and helped by the clumsiness of
the servant who was at the helm, cap
sized the boat. Miss Gibson, who was
swept clear of the wreck, was rescued
by Mr.. Fowler and the four by the aid
of ropes and spars succeeded in cling
ing to the overturned hull, until re-
turning daylight revealed their plight
to some early fishermen on the beach.
All of them were so exhausted that they
were unable to give their names and
addresses.
They were accordingly taken to the
hospital where all were revived.
Meanwhile the parents of the three
young people had been making frantic
search for them, no trace being found
until kilograms from the hospital an
nounced their safety. Miss Gibson is
still in a serious condition, but her re-
covery is expected. The other men,
bers of the party were able to leave the
hospital during the day.

QUEBEC, P. c., July 10.-A terrible
accident occurred at o'clock a. M, at
Craig's Road station, on the Grand
Trunk railroad, about IA miles west OF
Leviss. A very large pilgrimage from
Sherbrooke, Windsor Mills, had left
the towns for the shrine of st. Ann de
Beaupre. There were two sections OF
the train. one running a few minutes
behind the other. The first section
was standing at the Craig's Road sta
ton taking water, when the
second section passing the sema-
phore dashed into the rear Pull
man coach of the first section, smash
ing it to kindling wood and killing, it
is said, everybody in that car except
the Pullman conductor, who jumped.
Engineer Mcleod and Fireman Per-
kins of the second section, were both
killed outright.
The Pullman coach was telescoped
into the first class cars of the first Sec
sion. killing a number of passengers
riding in them.
Among the killed are three paests.
The number killed is now placed at
%, and the number injured at "a.
