MADAGAsCAR's OCCUPATION.
An English Merchant Believes It Is
 for the Best.

LONDON, Oct. 11.-Mr. Frederick Turner, a merchant of Atananarivo, has just arrived here and his views have been sought upon the situation in Madagascar.
 He says foreigners in Madagascar will welcome the sound French gov ernment, provided they be accorded equal rights under it with French men "The country" he said, must be open to all corners. Naturally France will try to improve her com mercial relations with the island and it is hoped she will do so without making English, American and Ger man trade impossible. America will have to be reckoned with, as the United States government has not recognized the French protectorate and Americans cannot afford to lose their much growing market"

Durrant became confused while be- ing questioned in regard to the notes of the lecture on the afternoon that Blanche Lamont was murdered.
 The weak part of the testimony was the statement that when arrested on April 12 he did not know whether he had notes of Cheneys lecture or not; although he compared his notes with the student, Glazier, four days before and knew he was suspected of killing the girl, who disappeared on the day the lecture was given.
