The women who make II their con-

THE RICKS IMPEACHMENT.
Opposition to the Resolution Expect
ed When 1t Comes Up.

ed When 1t Comes Up.
The. resolution for the Impeachment of
Judge Kicks OF Cleveland for malfeasance
in office, which was authorized by the
House Judiciary committee late yesterday
afternoon, will be presented to the House
next Friday. 1t Is said that vigorous oppo-
sition will be made in the House to the
adoption OF the resolution of impeachment.
It was by vote OF seven to six that the
committees action was taken, and the
minority proposes to make strong plea in
behalf Of Judge Kicks.
In the event of the resolution being
adopted by the House, 1t is said there is
probability that the Senate will fail to act
in Impeachment proceedings at this ses-
sion, in which case the matter would die
with this Congress. 1t would hardly be
renewed by the republican House. it is
said, and in view OF these circumstances
the friends of Judge Kicks are hopeful Of
preventing final action averse to his in
tereStS.
Representative Bailey of Texas says that
he proposes to press the Impeachment of
Judge Kicks and will not permit any delay
beyond this week, If 1t is in his power to
prevent it. The time is short until the
close Of the session and prompt action will
be necessary to dispose of the case.

Secretary Gresham this morning received
a cable message from Ambassador Eustis
at Paris, confirming the reported resigna-
ton of Casimir-Perier, the French presi-
dent. and adding that mo trouble is appre-
henGed.'
Mr.. Gresham said that Mr.. Eustis was a
careful. conservative official, and conse-
cuently his judgment of the situation was
valuable The Secretary remarked that he
did not care to discuss the matter further
than to express a sincere hope that Mr..
E.ustis' statement that no trouble is appre-
hended will be fully borne out by the prog
ress of events.
Ambassador Eustis' advices were sent to
President 1t is said at the State Depart
meat that the state of affairs In France
does not call for any action at present on
the part of this government.
Comment at the Capitol.
Senator Sherman seemed rather less SUE
prised at the news than other members Of
the foreign relations committee. THE cabi-
net in France has recently resigned" said
he, land 1 suppose that is the cause of the
p-csident's resignation. 1t is not very un-
usual for French president to resign.
Ferry and Grevy both did SO. There is no
reason why the matter should afect the
relations of France with the United States,
or indeed, with any nation"
Representative McCreary, chairman Of
the House committee on foreign relations,
said that he had been watching French pol
itics closely but had had no reason to ex-
pect any such occurrence. Two ministries
have resigned in France recently" said
he but that is no reason for a president
to do so Ihey resign very easily over
there France has averaged one ministry
for every year since she has been re-
public.

A Bonus stiu Available.

The United States consul at Matamoras,
in a report to the Department Of State,
says that the bonus of 100000 offered by
the town Of Brownsville, Tex, to the first
company building a railway from that
point to Corpus Christi or to San Antonio
is still available. Either of these lines
would greatly facilitate trade between the
United States and Mexico. The movement
by Baltimore capitalists for the deepening
of the harbor at Aransas Pass adds the
consul, will insure the building of the rail-
way now surveyed, to Brownsville.
