PARIS, Oct. 7, 1s96.-A cold, drizzling
rain fell throughout the forenoon, put'
despite the discomfort of being ~ OF
doors, thousands of people IN
the vicinity of the Russian Embassy
hoping to catch a glimpse of the imperial
visitors. President Faure, with Madame
Faure and Mile. Faure, drove to the Rus
sian Embassy at nine O'Clock this morn
ing for the purpose of accompanying the
Car and ,Czarina in their sightseeing
tour of the city. The Car expressed
the thanks of himself and the Czarina
for the courtesy shown TO them by the
President and his family and invited M.
Faure to occupy a seat in his Landau.
The party started on their trip half an
hour behind the time fixed by the pro-
gramme.
The Czarina wore a gray dress and
looked bright and fresh, but the Car
looked pale and wore a serious express
sion. The party were driven TO the
Cathedral of Notre Dame, where they
were received by Cardinal Richard, Arch
bishop of Paris, who was clad. in his
archiepiscopal robes. Assisting the cardi-
nal in the reception of the visitors were
the Vicar General Of the archdiocese and
the members of the Maroponitan Chap
ter.
The streets through which the party
passed were lined with people and the
great square fronting the Cathedral was
densely packed. The enthusiasm of the
people along the route and in the square
was manifested by almost incessant cheer
ing.
The Gear and Czarina, after leaving the
Cathedral visited the Palais de Justice,
the Pantheon and the Hotel DIES Inyalides,
returning to the Russian Embassy for
luncheon. In the afternoon the Car laid
the first stone of the new bridge across
the Seine, to be known as the Alexander
III. bridge, in honor of the late Car of
Russia, the father of Nicholas II. The
weather was showery. The Gar. while
at the Pantheon. paid a visit to the tomb
of the late President Carnot, upon which
his Majesty placed a magnificent wreath
of white flowers. Madame Carnot and her
sons were present.
The "Eclair' mentions the fact of the
Cars illness at the opera performance
last night by saying that his Majesty
was slightly i~ndisposed as a result Of
fatigue. the day having been one OF great
exactfon and excitement to him.
The Paris newspapers deyote columns
of space to articles on the reception of
the Car and are unanimous in decIar-
ing that the 9Th of October Will leave
indelible memories upon the hearts of
F~renchmen and Russians. The homage
of the people to the Gar, the papers
say, was warm, yet full of dignity and
eelf-conhdence; All of the papers express
satisfaction with the speeches made by
the Car at Cherbourg and at the Elysee
Palace.

Charles A. Shriner, fish and game pro-
say in his report for September. He
says
Il have received during the past month
a considerable number of applications for
black bass and pickerel, but investiga-
ton shows that in only a very few m
stances were the waters sought to be
stocked adapted for that purpose. The
United States Fish Commissioners has
complied will the requests of a number
of our citizens for black bass in suitable
waters. Under the circumstances l would
respectfully suggest that no attempt be
made this year at transferring fish from
one water to another, the number of ap-
plications entitled to favorable considera-
ton being altogether out of proportion
to the cost of instituting the work.
A a favorable opportunity presented
itself for obtaining smaH-mouthed bass
In Sussex County one hundred and eighty
light OF these FISH were placed in Gull
bred and thirty-six adult small-mouthed
bass placed in that water during the past
year.
In the Court Of Common Pleas of

CANAL BOAT SUSPECTS
A Man and a Woman Arrested
for the Assault on Mrs.
Demarest.

William Engler, a young tough, who
lives on boats in the South Cove, and
Jennie Smith, a dissolute woman, are
prisoners at Police Headquarters, suspect
ed of knowing something about the brutal
assault upon Mrs. Hannah Demarest,
who was dragged into the cabin of a boat
in South Cove Saturday night, beaten,
gagged and assaulted. Yesterday Mrs.
Demarest accompanied Detectives Doyle
and Dalton to the scene Of the assault.
She led them to an abandoned tugboat
and explained that she recollects hav-
ing stepped on a beer barrel when she
was dragged into the cabin. The beer
barrel was found by the detectives and
also an old shawl which Mrs. Demarest
declared had been used to gag her. An
examination of the shawl showed blood
stains. These, Mrs. Demarest asserted,
were caused by the scratches she sus-
tanned while battling with her assailants.
In searching the boat the detectives
came upon Engler and the Smith woman.
Engler's face, and hands were badly cut
and scratched. The scratches looked as
though they might ave been made by
finger nails. Mrs. Demarest was unable
to identify Engler as her assailant, but
his presence On the boat where the as
sault took place and the condition of mis-
face and hands led the police to place
MIN under arrest.
The Smith woman was questioned by
the detectives. She told such a variety
of stories concerning her whereabouts on
Saturday night that she, toe, was arrest
ed. 1t is believed she was on the boat
at the time Mrs. Demarest was so badly
dealt with.
Louis Eicke, a Waterman employed by
! a coal mpan has been identified by
Mrs. Demarest as a man h met when
she crossed the canal bridge. Efcke says
he knows nothing about the assault, Blu
the police believe he knows more than he
cares to tell.
Engler and Jennie Smith are to be
given a hearing on Friday morning by
Justice Potts. Eicke is TO be called as
a witness.
