Too Much For It.
INTEaPELLATI0n OF M. ROUANeT
Eastens Crisis Which Has
I-ong Been Anticipated.

PARIS, Oct %. = In the chamber of
deputies yesterday Nj. Rouanet, who has
been prominent in exposing those who
were connected with the Panama canal
and Southern railroad syndicatcs, ques-
toned the government regarding the
South Of France railroad scandal, IL being
alleged that "a number Of senators deputies
aud others have made large profits out Of
the company by fair or unfair means.
He declared that the good repute Of par
lament was involved and asked for ex-
plantations as TO the partiality which had
been shown toward those involved in the
scandals, claiming that the authorities
had been afraid 10 prosecute them because
the deputies and senators inyolved with
the late Baron Reinach of Panama canal
fame had disposed OF S,Sj000O francs In
devious ways. and on behalf of the south
ern railways he demanded that the minis
ter Of justice, NJ. Traricux, publish the
documents in the case, which were in his
possession, aud which would throw light
on the subject.
NJ Binder then charged the minister Of
justice with culpable leniency, and de-
manded that the guilty parties be pun
ished
M Trarieux replied, denying that he
had long had in his possession documents
which required the arrest OF Edmond
Magnier ex-senator and recently editor
in-chief OF The Eyenement, who was
recently sentenced 60 a term of imprison-
ment for having received part Of the prof
Its of the syndicate. Continuing, the
minister OF justice said that whenever the
government believed il had incriminatlDg
evidence IL had prosecuted the parties in
yolved. No deputy, be added, was in
cluded amonethe guilty parties.
Amid continual Radical Interruptions,
NJ. 1rarieux managed To say, in addition.
that several names were known 10 the
government as having figured in the re-
port of the expert, NJ. flory, the official
accountant, who made an inquiry into
the finances OF the South of France rail-
road. He was interrupted by excited cries

Names Given.

In reply. 81. Trarieux said: "Rouvior,
Jules Roche, Eticnne, Deloncle, Bardoux
and others" When he WAS able TO make
himself heard, the minister OF justice
added that the majority of those whose
names had been mentioned had explained
their position, and he concluded with the
remarks "The chamber now knows the
truth, and If parliament considers its
dignity and honor compromised, the gov
ernment will join the chamber in voting
fo- repressive measures, and in the face of
these explanations asks the chamber for =
vote of confidence"
The order Of the day, pure and simple,
vas submitted TO the chamber and re-
jectod by vote of 406 to l05.
NJ Haborts then moved that the cham
bcr agroc 90 prohibit members of parlia-
nSnt from joining in financial syndi-
Gates The motion was accepted by Pre-
mier Ribot, and was adopted unanimously.
Later NJ. Rouanet submitted motion
demanding that full light be thrown upon
the South Of France railroad scandals,
asking the government TO prosecute sn
those who have been found to be impl-
Gated in them and submit to the chamber
the report of the expert who inquired into
the finances of the company.
NJ. Ribot thcpupon said IL was useless
10 submit the experts report, aud as to the
prosecutions, he added the work of justice
had been accomplished aud could not be
reopcncd
NJ. Rounet's motion, asking for an ex-
PLANTATION as TO the partiality which had
been shown toward those involved in the
scandals, claiming that the authorities
had been afraid TO prosecute them. and
demanding that the minister of justice
publish the documents in the case which
We're in his possession, was then adopted
by vote of 275 10 1876.
After the adoption Of this motion the
ministers left the chamber of deputies In a
body, amid ironical Radical cheers, and
went to the Elysec palace, where they
handed in their designations TO President
Faure, who accepted them. The chamber
Of deputies was adjourned for week.

Down in Cuba
TROOPS AND INSURGENTS
II Is Said That Soldiers 0utnumbered
the Rebels
Report That nany Of the Insurgents Were Cut
Down by the Invading Forces-The
War Is Not Yet Over

HANANA,S April 30. - Government
troops under General Salcedo have won a
great victory over the Insurgents COM
manded by General Maceo. Many of the
latter were killed or wounded. The rest
are dispersed and are now seeking refuge
in the mountains. Garcia's band has
been routed with great loss in killed and
wounded. Nearly all the remainder of his
band surrendered.
All the orders given by Captain Gen.
era Martinez de Campos since he assumed
control of Cuba would lead the ordinary
observer to believe that there Will be a
great laxity in the administration OF the
war department by General Calleja. the
captain general whom he superseded and
who is now on his way back to Spain.
Even the sanitary service, so essential in
time of war; suffered greatly from neglect.
1t is believed that Campos will discern
that the rebellion could have been pre-
taken in tina. Happily. the activity of
the new captain general in the direction
of general plan of campaign against the
insurgents will, it is expected, soon pro-
duce beneficial result

SAN FRANCISCO. April 29.-The state
authorities have refused to accept the
payment of the second installment of the
Central and Southern Pacific taxes for
1887 under the reassessment by the state
board OF equalization in 1894. The rea.
son given by the controller is that the
state supreme court had decided that the
original assessment was valid. The
railroad officials maintain that as the de.
cision OF the California court is on appeal
TO the United States supreme court, there
is no bar to receive the mony for the
taxes as reassessed. The first Installment
was paid in October, before the state SUI
preme court rendered it's decision. The
amount rendered was 500, 900. The rail-
road officials say that the tender was
made to save interest on the money in.

SCHEME TO SAVE THE FRUIT
The New Proposition OF Railroad
Company
Goods to Be Delivered in Eastern Cities over
Sand Dunes and in Guaranteed
Good Condition

SAN FRANCISCO, April 29.-The
Southern Pacific company has in course
of construction in the east 800 ventilated
fruit cars for shipment of orchard pro-
ducts from California to the east. At the
same time the Union Pacific and the
Northwestern lines are each building 800
cars for the same object. These cars are
so arranged that boxes of fruit can be
stored in them without touching each
other and with free currents of air whifll
ing through them as the train moves
along. 1t has been satisfactorily demon
strated that this method is success and
far cheaper than the refrigerator car pro-
cess of preserving fruit on the transconti-
mental journey. 1t saves freight on ice
needed III refrigerator cars and also the
cost of these latter expensive vans.
1t is proposed to make the time be-
tween Sacramento and Chicago five days.
The Southern Pacific will make the run
to Ogden in fortv-eight hours.
The service will be introduced about
the middle of June. At first, until the
shipments bee ome heavy, two trains
week will be dispatched, but when the
season is full train will leave Sacrament
to at midnight sharp every night, with
nothing but ventilated cars full of fruit
for the eastern markets.

LONDON. April GA special to the
Daily News from Paris says that the ca
tastlophe occurred few minutes past 3
O'Clock In the morning. A stone-cutter
who had Just commenced work q few feet
from the reservoir. saw the front of the
dam come down almost instantly. The
water poured down the valley, forming a
bar about sixteen feet high. The flood
reached Momsey at :05 o'clock having
travelled eighteen miles in less than an
hour and three-quarters. The project of
Nosges estimated the number of victims
at III. The loss of life is probably under
estimated. as no news has vet been re-
ceived from the parish of Frizen, through
which the torrent passed. The sound of
the bursting dam was heard several
miles away. The great rush of water
lasted about fifteen minutes, during
which time 8. 600. 900 cubic metres of wa
ter passed through the break.
At Bouze itself only one house remains
standing on the hill above the reservoir.
which is now quite empty and looks like
an immense black hole in the landscape.
The remains of the broken wall are lying
about for distance of 500 yards below
the opening. A small pine wood which
stood beneath the reservoir has complete
ly disappeared, with the exception of two
trees, between the branches of which
quantity of wreckage remains. The
great reservoir was an exceedingly curious
structure. 1t was composed of three arms
which stretched out like a fan between
wOoutd Mills.

ANOTHER CHURCH ROW
Attack on the Christian Endeavor Society
Resented


ASBURY PARK. n. j.. April 29.-Ths
recent attacks made by Father Phelan.
the Roman Catholic priest of st. Louis
and editor of the Western Waterman, on
the mem bers of the Christian Endeavor
societies of the United States, created con-
siderable feeling here where the Endeav-
orers are strong. Rev. J. P. Dawson of
the Westminster Presbyterian church, last
night made reply from the pulpit to the
charges, during the course OF which he
denounced rather Phelan in the warmest
terms. A great crowd of Endeavorers
were present, and during the evening the
following petition was signed by nearly
every one in the building:
"To His Reverence, Mgr. Satolli, Roman
Catholic University, Washington,
d. G.:
1--WE, the undersigned Christian En-
deavorers of Asbury Park, respectfully
call your attention to the wicked, false
and slanderous statement published by
Father Phelan, one Of your priests in St.
Louis, Mo. The base and inexcusable as
sault is made on more than 5000, 600
pious, earnest, godly and irreproachale
young Christians in America. It is UNI
paralleled in its baseness and enormity
and should consign its author 10 eyerlast-
ing infamy and contempt.
''We therefore ask that the creature
from which emanated such charges be de-
graded and deposed from the high posi-
ton he has SO recklessly disgraced. We
are encouraged to make this petition
from the many protestations which you,
as well as the holy see which you so ably
represent have recently made toward
America and American institutions.
This petition is most respectfully and
earnestly made. with full confidence that
you will give it immediate and careful
consideration.
Members of the local Christian Endeav-
or societies will at once circulate petitions
for signatures. and when both Asbury
Park and Ocean Grove have been can
vassed the petition will be forwarded to,
Archbishop Satolli at Washington.

Lively Riot on the Lake Docks at the Chicago
End
CHICAGO. April pa reduction from
twelve to eight cents ton for h eaving
coal brought OH lively riot today at the
docks of the G. S. Richardson Coal COM
pany. Three men were injured, none of
them seriously, however, and it required
the presence of twenty policemen 10 quell
the distur bance.
Today was the first of the coal heaving
season, and before work on their first
barge was com menced the Richardson
company announced that it would not
pay the old rate of twelve cents, but would
cut the price to eight cents. The union
men refused to accept the cut and the
work proceeded with non-union men.
This afternoon 300 union men march ed
to the dock and demanded that the non
union men stop work They refused
and the mob attacked them. Some of
the crowd managed to get behind Officer
Streetor, threw him down and kick ed
him about the head and body. The union
men drove the non-union workers away
and the officers sent for assistance, who
quickly drove back the crowd and the
work went on without further Interrupt
ton. Several coal firms have declared
they. will not pay more than eight cents,
and further trouble is looked for.

IN AMBUSH
Inhabitants Think There Will Be a
Change


WASHINGTON, April 29-The impress
sion here is that the situation at Corinto
is likely to remain unchanged for a few
days at least. The British forces occupy
ing the town are not likely to be attacked
unless they endeavor to force their way
inland, and so far as is now known. there
is no present necessity for this movement.
The abandonment of the town by the
Nicaraguans on the whole, rather tends to
better the aspect of affairs Just now. for
10 reduces to a minimum the chances of u
hostile collision and the very isolation
of the place from the surrounding coun-
try tends to the same end.
State department officials are still
firmly convinced that the Nicaraguan
government will pay the indemnity and
believe that the delay grows entirely out
of the conditions of political expediency.
The Nicaraguans here count on the
active sympathy and substantial support
of the other Central American republics
in the event of actual nostilites. They
do not express the belief that their sister
republics will take part as such, but feel
confident that individual volunteers will
come to the Nicaraguans in sufficient
numbers to give them an effective army of
al least 90. 900 men. While with this force
they could not expect to defeat the British.
they hope to make it very uncomfortable
Tor them. The coast towns. which are
small and unimportant save as ports of
entry for goods, would be abandoned and
the army would make its campaign in
the tropical Businesses of the interior.
which are well nigh inaccessible to the
European troops. A war conducted
under such conditions would he verv ax.
pensive to Great Britain, necessitating
the transportation of regular army from
Europe and a prolonged campaign such
as lsrance is carrying OH in Madagascar.
