KNAPP.

WASHINGTON, Feb 1.-THE state
department has received a report by
cable from United States Minister Ter
rell at Constantinople, in reference to
the case of the American missionary,
Knapp, who was arrested at Bitlis by
the Turkish authorities on charge of
melting rebellion on the evidence of
certain Armenians who are now in
prison. Mr.. Terrell cables Secretary
Olney that he has secured a suspension
of the proceedings against the mission
airy and safe conduct for him when
ever the mountains can be crossed to
Constantinople, where the minister
himself will examine into the case.
Mr.. Knapp will bring with him three
women and FIVE children. When news
of Knapp's arrest came to Mr.. Terrell
he demanded that he be either released
or that he TerrelD be permitted to try
him, and this cablegram indicates that
he has succeeded in his purpose of re-
moving the case from the Turkish off,
cials.

IN A RECEIVERS HANDS.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-THE Manoa
company of Brooklyn has been put in
to the hands of a receiver by Judge
Clements of the supreme court. The
receiver is James A. Radcliffe
C. C. Fitzgerald, one of the Manoa
company, to whom the original con-
cession was made of the disputed ter
ritory and who transferred it to the
Manoa company, said that the receiv-
ership was the first step in an attempt
to wind up the Orinoco company, made
by the stockholders of the Manoa COM
pany, all of whom are convinced that
the Orinoco company is not carrying
out the terms of its agreement by
which it was to assume all the debts
of the Manoa company and put up
$780, 900 in cash for operations on the
grant. There is a dispute between the
two companies as to whether a lease
of the privilege has ever been per
fected.

4 CRTsTs IN FRANCE.

PARIS, Feb. 17.-The political crisis
arising out of the demand of the SEN
ate for a vigorous inquiry into the
Southern railroad scandals is practic-
ally a struggle between the chamber
of deputies. which has supported the
radical ministry and the senate, which
seems bent upon overthrowing it, even
at a cost of most serious disturbances.
There is little excitement this morning
outside the newspaper offices. 1t is
claimed the resignation of the min
istry would not alter the matter to
any great extent, as it appears to be
no longer a question of confidence or
of non-confidence in the cabinet. The
chamber of deputies, 1t is asserted, has
practically, by defying the senate, en-
dangered the constitution, and the re-
suit is a condition of affairs about as
threatening as any since the trouble
some times of dt870-71. Conservatives
and socialists demand the dissolution
of parliament. The moderates and re-
publicans agree that dissolution is adj
yisable, but they claim it should take
place under another cabinet.

CHICAGO, Feb. 17.-After spending
two hours in heated debate and caus-
ing considerable i'll feeling. the Trade
and Labor assembly laid the question
of bible in the public schools on the
table, and decided to confine its ener-
gies in securing free text books for
public school children.
The assembly was about to adjourn,
when w. c. Pomeroy brought up the
bible question. The discussion was
tame enough until he introduced reso-
lutions calling on the city council to
pass an ordinance which will provide
bibles for all reform organizations, IN
GLIDING the CIVIC federation" He coup
led the free text book proposition with
the resolution and made lengthy
speech in support of them.
James J. Linehan called the intro
duction of resolutions a piece Of trick
cry.
J. J. Ryan said that a delegate who
would couple the bible question with
the free text book agitation as Pom
eroy had been doing, had no right to
be heard.
Matters grew worse, and at times
there we're three or four delegates on
the floor at once. each claiming recog-
milton from the chair. The bible mus
tered many friends, although the prop
osftion TO introduce it into the schools
did not bring out many supporters.
Delegate Ryan said that if the dele
gates to the assembly would read the
bible oftener they would be better men
and women, and better trade unionists.
Delegate Linehan said there was not
a delegate in the hall who could quote
two passages of scripture.
Delegate Presis was not opposed to
teaching children things that are good,
saying that they would learn the bad
themselves.
Delegate Nelson wanted the matter
referred 70 the grievance committee;
another delegate wanted it referred to
a special committee, and still another
thought it could be handled by the
committee on public institutions.
Motions fell thick and fast and from
all parts of the hall, until some one
moved that the entire question be laid
on the table There were but three
dissenting voices.
Free text books and the bible as a
text book were also discussed at the
semi-monthly meeting of the labor con-
gress at Cigarmakers' hail. but the
organization did not commit itself on
either question. The committee pre-
viously appointed to confer with the
board of education regarding free text
books was not ready to report, but a
member, Victor Williams of the Typo
graphical union, said he had talked
with members of the board and they
appeared to think that it would not
be wise to spend 100000 for school
books until buildings were furnished in
which to educate the 10000 children of
the city who cannot now find room
in the schools

NOR was circulated in this city that
Amelie Rives Chanler, the well-known
novelist, was about to be married to
Prince Troubelzekoi, and that the cere-
mony would be celebrated within
very few days It is believed Mrs.
Chanler. who secured a divorce from
her husband, John Armstrong Chanler,
in the latter part of last year, met the
prince, who is well known in social
and artistic circles in London and
Paris, while she was being entertained
in the former capital. Mrs. Chanler,
who had become reigning favorite
in society in London, is said to have,
met him at garden party late last
season.
Mrs. Chanler returned from Europe
some time ago. it is said by her i'm
mediate friends, who are also informed
that she at once went to her old home,
the Rives homestead at Castle Hill,
Va. There she has remained Prince

mSrERIoUs MURDER-

MUNCIE, Ind. Feb. 1.-THE dead
body of Elmer Sheets was found lying
alongside the Lake Erie and Western
tracks. Both feet, one of which was
bare, were frozen in the mud and his
body was covered with an inch of snow
that had fallen during the night. There
are SIX small sashes on the left side
of the face. It was necessary to chop
the mud from around the feet before
the body could be moved. The six
gashes are about an inch in length
and were made by a sharp instrument
which crushed the skull near the tenn
pie, causing death. There was slight
bruise on his left side. He was not
killed by the train, as none passed af-
ter 7:4O p. M and he was seen after
that hour. The belief is that he was
murdered. Elmer Sheets was 26 years
old and the son of Henry Sheets, a
prominent citizen who owns a large
dairy north of the city. No clue to the
murderers have been found.

EDIsoS's JOKE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.

In the face of the terrible threats
held out as a warning to this country
by Mr.. Edison, showing how, if We
dared to go to war with America,
everything British would be inconti-
nently annihilated by electricity, it
will be soothing to the feelings Of the
nervous to hear that our Institution
of Electrical Engineers has appointed
a committee or some of its most e9l-
peTienced members to report upon the
manner in which their services could
best be employed for the furtherance
of naval or military operations, either
extensively or defensiveIy, in the event
of war being forced upon US. There is
only one opinion as to the brilliancy
of many Of Mr.. EdiSon's inventions
and adaptations; but. at the same time,
it must be remembered that this clever
gentleman does not hold the monopoly
of Jove's weapons, so that it is just
possible our electricians might find an
antidote for the blood-curdling banes
which Menlo Park held out as a kind
of DOGGY for our intimidation.-Lond
