aoRTHERN Pacific AFFAIRS.
Receivership Matters Being Patched Up
by the LAWYERS.

Receivership Matters Being Patched Up
by the Lawyers.
New YORK, Oct 30.-The Northern
Pacific forces on all sides are resting
after the battles of last week, and har-
mony has taken the place of strife.
The lawyers are still busily engaged on
the details of the settlement, which nec-
essarily involve some work. It is their
aim to render matters easy for the
courts along the whole line. It is ex-
pected that the receivership will be sub
mitted to them in such good shape that
they will all, from Judge Hanford, on
the Pacific, to Judge Sanborn in st.
Paul, accept it readily, without any
questions as to precedence. Judge La
combe is ready to act whenever the
lawyers call him. The Adams com
mittee, which was such a formidable
opponent of the Ives interests last sum-
mer, now agrees to act cordially with
them in all matters concerning the well
fare Of the railway. .

THE FRENCH CABINET CRISIS.
State of Anarchy Which May Lead to
Dissolution of Parliament.

State of Anarchy Which May Lead to 9
Dissolution of Parliament.
PARIS, Oct 80 The newspapers ex
press appreciation of the difficulties
which are confronting President Faure
as result of the resignation of the
Ribot ministry. The moderate Repub.
lican journals deplore the fact that the
chamber of deputies was not satisfied
with the explanations of the ministry,
regarding the failure of the government
to prosecute those whose names had
been mentioned in connection with the
south of France railroad scandals and
that the chamber thus precipitated a
situation the consequences of which, it
is claimed, it will probably be the first
to regret.
The Radical and Socialist newspapers
hail the defeat of the Ribot ministry as
revenge for their own discontinue in
the matter Of the Car1naux strike, while
the Conservative organs state that the
ministry has fallen on question of pub
lie morals, and under blow given by
the majority, exasperated att repeated
attempts TO husn Hagfant scandals
a Radical Cabinet.
Most of the newspaper opinions of the
circumstances point to the formation of
a Radical cabinet, headed by NJ. Bour
geoise, whose last of Office was that Of
minister Of justice in the former Ribot
cabinet, in 1892, and who tried unsuc-
cessfully to form d cabinet after the fall
of the Dupuy ministry.
Several newspapers however, say
that they anticipate that a dissolution
of parliament will occurr IF the pres
ent state of anarchy continues
The Palais Bourbon concensus of
opinion seems to favor radical minis
try, comprising among its members NJ
Bourgeoise, Cavaignac, Peytral, Dou-
mer, Hanotaux and perhaps General
Zurlinden and Admiral Besnard

The Madison Bomb Fake.

MADISON, Wis, Oct. 30.-The so-called

lighted emit a red flame which will burn

scheme They May Work.

Sheriff Houpt and a deputy of this
county have left here, armed with a
warrant for Fitzsimmons. It is their
purpose to meet FitZsimmons in Texas,
return with him, and as soon as the
train passes over the line, to place him
under arrest and bring him on to Hot
Springs, thus taking him out Of the
state authorities hands completely.
When they arrive here Fitzsimmons is
to be taken before a magistrate and if
the facts will Justify, be placed under a
peace bond Then it is believed
by some here that Fitzsimmons will re-
fuse to come into the state when he
learns that warrant is out for him, but
