Another article by zola IN Figaro under

MRS. NACK'S CASE.

New York. Dec. S.-After a consultation
with Judges Maddox and Smith. District
Attorney Young decided it is said, to
accept a plea of manshughter for Mrs.
Mack, the accomplice Of Martin Thorn in
the murder of William Guldensuppe ac-
cording to the Herald. The extreme PEN
atty for this is % years imprisonment with
a commuuation of seven years and seven
months.
Mrs Nack's lawyers before her con-
fession, it is announced. came to an un-
derstanding with the district attorney
that she would surrender herself to the
state as a witness only on condition of
being allowed to plead manslaughter. Mr..
Young saw the force of this reasoning,

FEELING IN MADRID.

New York, Dec. IA dispatch to the
Herald from Madrid says;
Public opinion here is engrossed by the
Cuban question. There is little else in
the papers than matter relating to the
DEGREES. The Liberal is entirely salts
fled. The Epoca regards it as an example
of ruin, the breaking up of the law, con-
sdering that the solution Of the grave
problem Of commercial autonomy can
neither be accepted as satisfactory nor
can the motives brought forward in it's
defense be looked upon as encouraging.
The pens with which the queen signed
the DEGREES have been givn to Senor Gar
cia Molinas for the authorlzement Of
Porto Rico. Senior Morel has also given to
the same institution the pen he used in
drawing up the DEGREES. As to the rumor
that the Office of colonial minister is to
be abolished, now that the colonies are
autonomous, was too absurd to merit
refutation. More than ever will a min
lister be required to superintend the deal
ings between the colonies and the mother
country.
