The first results Of the census taken in
France last March have just been published.
The returns make the total population Of
France 38,229 ,969 persons, an increase q
1873, Sl9 in five years. This increase is almost
entirely confined to the cities, and Is partly
compensated by a decrease in the rural com
munes. 1t is il the Departments Of the
Orne, the Manche, the Lot, the CnIvados,
the Dordogne, and the Gers that the diminu-
ton has been most marked. For the last
five years the French population has in
creased at the rate, III round numbers, Of
&c, 500 souls per annum, OF, in other words,
during this period there has been one birth
to 800 inhabitants. These figures are, of
course, dangerously low. It does not appear
whether the apparent Increase is due, as in
former censuses, TO immigration rather than
to an excess of native births over deaths. In
any case the situation is a very curious one
when considered in relation to Freach aspi-
rations to create a Colonial Empire. Col mics
for q stationary population ale almost an
absurdity.

New Workers Celebrate the British
Evacuation of the City,

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-The one hun
dred and thirteenth anniversary of the
evacuation of New York by the British
was celebrated by the New York state
society, Sons of the Revolution at Del
monico's tonight. The principal speak
er was William B. Hornblower, who re-
sponded to the toast American Com
mon Sense"
He said in part: What of the future :?
Suggestions are made that the old party
lines must be abandoned and that all
men who are in favor of sound currency
and of honest enforcement of public and
private obligations and of the mainten-
one party against the elements of dis
content and disorder and dishonesty.
Such result would be most unfortun-
ate. If the day shall ever come when all
sober minded men are on one side and
all extremists and revolutionists on the
the knell of republican institutions will
have sounded. Our form of government
cannot continue unless there are two
great parties who are divided upon ques-
tions on which men of sound judgment
and honest principles can fairly differ.
/ believe party lines will be reformed,
based on the same general lines of divi-
sion that have heretofore separated the
two great parties and l believe thus and
thus only can our institutions be pre-
served"

COREA'S KING
Driven to Seek the Protection Of the
Russians

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-It is
learned here that the king of Corea has
been much alarmed since the murder of
the queen, and since that occurrence
has resided in the Russian legation and
has been virtually under the protection
of the Russian government. The Rus
slams have determined to protect the
legation whether it is an asylum of the
of the country or simply the official
residence. 1t is not believed the king is
weak, but he has no army. japanese,
to very large extent, constitute Corea's
fighting force. 1t is not believed that
Japan as a government is encouraging
the outbreaks against the king, for it
is said by those in a position to know
that it would not be to the advantage
of Japan to have trouble in Corea. 1t
is thought at the Corean legation that
there are robber bands and lawless men
in Corea who are making all the trouble
and who are encouraging the officers of
the army to seize the king. 1t is also
recognized that there is feeling against
Russian influence in Corean affairs.

Peon Jealousy Aroused by the Colonists'
Success Leads to Arson and the
Murder of Settlers.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 25.-Advices
received in the city from the American
colony at Metlaltoynca, in the state of
Puebla. Mexico, give definite informa-
tion of assassinations by poems which
the Mexican government has until now
been able to keep secret. There are sew
eral Californians in the colony and in
view of recent events they are flying to
this country for their lives. The Mex
lean government has sent troops to the
colony in the hope of capturing the as
sassns, who, during the past four
months, have murdered three Ameri-
can settlers in cold blood.
The colony was formed about four
years ago and numbers about 200 souls.
A tract of 100000 acres of land was Sc
cured at Metlaitoynca midway be-
tween Tampico and Vera Cruz. Most of
the colonists were prosperous farmers
of the United States who disposed of
their property and invested the proceeds
in improving their tracts in the colony.
over $500,00O was invested in improve
ments and the raising of coffee was be-
gun. President Diaz and the Mexican
government afforded the colonists i'm
portant aid, and every encouragement
was offered them for the investment
of their capital. The prosperity of the
colonists aroused the hatred of the
Mexicans, who perpetrated a series of
robberies Cases of arson followed and
finally three murders were committed,
all within a month. The victims were
Thomas Gomez, G. Denny and Charles
Pilerea
A San Franciscan, who has invested
heavily in the colony, stated today that
reign of terror prevailed at Metal
toynca and that it's effect was bound
to be disastrous to the colony. The
poems, he declared We're determined to
drive the settlers from the country and
unless the government interfered their
efforts would succeed
1t is understood that the state depart
ment has been made acquainted with the
facts and the Mexican government will
be called upon to make a thorough in
vestigation of the facts and to afford
American citizens the protection they
need.

the gentlemen of the rarty during the
afternoon, and when the visitors left
for Cleveland at Ala p. m., he drove his
own rig to the Valley depot, Whitelaw
Reid being the only occupant of the
carriage. While it is probable that po-
litical matters received some considera-
ton in the talks among the men, the
visit was principally of social nature
and to afford the ladies' of the party an
opportunity to pay their respects to the
president-elect and his wife. Members
of the party were happy and jovial as
they left the house, and, it was evident
the visit had been pleasant ONE.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Announce

The money Mr.. Astor provided shall

crowded tenement district, where thou
sands of children who are now without
