Tho Central News says the plot, ln
which it Is charged lyman, Bell, Wallace
and Kcarney were implicated, was Matched
in tho United States and that it was
widespread IN its ramincations, not only
in England, but in various oontinontal
countries. The conspiracy was started
months ago, and, although those connected
with it thought they were working with
the utmost secrecy so far as tho arthori-
ties wore concerned, there wore among tho
plotters two or three agents Of the British
government who kept the London police

The police here, in their Investigators
early learned that the magazine of tho plot

Antwerp and when the plans for the ar
rest were complete the authorities Of that
city were notified, and an attempt was
made to arrest the men I'm the house where
the explosives were stored. This, how
ever, failed but it Is thought almost Ger
tain that tho two men-Kearney and
Haines, alias Wallaco-who were arrested
at Rotterdam, arc tho Irishmen who lived
in the house at Berchem.
kearney sent Bell TO Glasgow for the
purpose of sounding the physical force

BROKEN HEARTS IN FRANCE.
Held of Less Account by the Law
Than Broken F.ems

In no instance does the profound differ
ence of national character in England
and France appear more striking, says our
Paris correspondent than in the views
held on both sides OF the channel re-
garding breach Of promise. OF course
engagement are broken off in France
as well as in England. but it is only
in England that heavier damages are
awarded for broken heart than for a
broken leg. The offense is all but un-
known in the French law courts whether
1T is that Frenchmen are less inclined to
1t, or that the French girl dislikes bring
ing her sentimental troubles into court.
TO show English readers how incredibly
prejudiced French persons of both sexes
are upon the subject, it is enough to
say that young lady who attempted
to turn her wounded feelings into cash
would be regarded as only a. degree less
mean than the faithless man..
& The very small number of suits for
breach Of promise have always been
supported by a plea that the lady was
put to the. expense, and there must be
besides evidence of an intent to de-
ceive. Damages in any case are very
small. beside the royal amounts award
ed by English juries. On Saturday how
ever, an action for breach of promise a
I IAnglaise was brought into the Third
Paris police court. The lady and her
father, as nearest friend, produced bill
showing that they We're $50 out of pock-
ct for the broken engagement. They
might have had this but. badly advised,
they put on another item of f350 for the
moral prejudice. The French Judge did
not understand this, and he dismissed
the case.-London Daily News

who were the three greatest men in the

MILAN and DR.. John CORNELL
Both agreed that jackson and Jefferson
were two. but disagreed as to the third.
Mr.. Mcmillan claimed that David B. Hill
should come after Jefferson and Jackson,
but DR.. Connell insisted that Grover
Cleveland was much the greater man.
Dennis Mullins, President of the asscocia-
ton, made an address. in which he urged
the members to labor zealously for the

estimated with any accuracy until it is
known how much water the East Jersey
people will furnish.
If tine supply falls below 2O,OO0,0O0 gall
Ions daily the force of men at Belleville
will necessarily be large to keep the en-
gnes running. A conservative estimate
of the reduction is about $4,000 a year.
This will give altogether about $13S, 900
towards paying for the East Jersey sup
ply, SO that it will be necessary to make
up a yearly deficiency of from SITS, 800 to
$500, coo.
This deficiency will have to be made
up by increased water rents and taxes.
The act of 1895 gives the city the right
to put the deficiency in the tax levy
and increase the tax burden.
The city of Newark owns it's plant.
which cost s6,o00.e0O. Some of the water
bonds bear Az per cent. interest and
others per cent, consequently it pays
for its water less than 100000 a year
in interest, and at this time has the
call on 275o0,o00 gallons a day. The East
Jersey Water Company is now forcing
Jersey City to pay $313,9o0 year for
20,000O00 gallons a day, and when the
contract for the year expires the city
has nothing to show for its money.

OUT FOR SPOILS.
Republican Senators Figuring
Out a New Deal With
Populists.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9, 1S96-Republi-
cans have been discussing the subject
of the reorganization of the elective Off
GERS of the Senate this morning and the
impression prevails that nothing will be
accomplished at O. caucus called by Sem
ator Sherman to convene Immediately
after today's session, but that the whole
question will be postponed until the ar
rival of the two new Senators from Utah.
There appears to be a disposition on the
part of the Republicans to keep Ser
geant-at-Arms Richard Bright in his
present place. but several of the lead
ing men of that party have taken the
ground that if there is to be- reorgan-
ization it must take in all the elective
officers of the Senate or none. 1t is the
general opinion that the reorganization,
If there be any, will be complete.
But should the caucus decide to re-
organize it is not apparent that the Re
publicans can do it. In any event they
will require the vote of one or more Popu-
lists or the members of that party will
be compelled to abstain from voting as
they did when the committees were put
through. That they will so conduct them
selves on this question is denied by men
who ought to be conversant with the
subject. There is no impression, gathered
from talks had with Populists, that they
will vote with the Democrats this time
to keep Colonel Bright in Office as the
executive official Of the Senate.
The Ways and Means Committee of the
House continued lis inquiry into she ad-
ministrative features OF tie present tariff
law, today. Mr.. Lunt, continuing his
statement said this feature had worked
well. He suggested that Section 7, i'm
posing additional duty for undervalua-
tions. be amended so as to provide that
such impositions should not exceed 100
per cent.
He referred to the difference in decis-
ions of courts in custom cases and sug-
gested that the findings of fact by the
Board of General Appraisers be final In
illustration, he held that snakes had, in
one decision. been classed as tools of
trade" In another fan, finely painted,
had been claSsed as work OF art and
made dutiable as such.

THE POLICE SIDE OF IT.
kensacE,s Police Captain Ex-
plain Sunburyss Wounds.

Archie Sunbury of Jersey City Heights
who is lying seriously hurt in the Hack
ensack Hospital as a result of wounds
from a club in the hands of Police Cap
tain Holland of Rutherford, was report
ed yesterday as being somewhat improv-
ed. Hollands story is that he went to
the cell and unfastened it, when Sun
bury sprang at him. The Captain says
that in self-defence, he struck at Sun
bury with his club, and pushing him
back into the cell, locked the door. The
Police Committee of the Borough Coun-
ell. with the Mayor, held secret meet
them. and the Councilmen evidently ac-
cepted his explanation of self-defence, as
no punishment was inflicted upon him.
The members of the police force. We're
cautioned not to use their clubs freely.
