FRENCH PRIDE HURT.
4he Count of TurinsVictory Over
Prince Henry.
THE PRINCE is GETTING ALONG NICELY.
Gen. Albertine, Who Gave Way to the
Count Of Turin, Has Withdrawn
His Challenge The Duehsts
Under'the Church's Ban



NEW YORK, Aug. lG.-A dispatch to
the World from Paris says: Paris is.
intensely excited over the royal duel in
which Prince Henry of Orleans was
severely wounded by 3the count of
turin, nephew of the king of Italy.
The sale of papers on the boulevards
has been almost unprecedented, while
on all sides knots of Parisions,
gesticulatng with even more than Gus
tomary energy were discussing, al
most quarreling, over the encounter.
Although therepublicans would fain,
console themselves with the reflection
that Prince IIenrys overthrow has
killed Orleanism for generation,
French pride, irrespective of party, is
deeply hurt by the Italian princes
victory.
Happily, the mood of the Partisan
changes quickly and often, for if the
present temper were to last, interna-
tional complications would be unavod-
Bile
The French anger is further stimu-
lated by persistent reports that Prince
Henry was inferior to his opponent in
nerve more than in swordsmanship,
and was completely overborne by the
violent, reckless onslaughtof the count
Of Turin. The opinion is said to have
been expressed by the count's.second
that if Prince. Henry had had proper
self control, he.1lad an opening in the
second bout which would have easily
enabled him to put the count of Turin
hors de combat.
The count of Turin also is said to
have displayed less than his usual skill,
and literally TO have overborne his an
tagonist by his desperate onset from
the very opening of the encounter,
According to one account the wound
in the abdomen by which Prince Henry
was disabled, was the result of his own
maladresse in parrying fierce lunge
of his opponent.
1t is said that the prince collapsed
instantly and that the count looked in
alarm until his surgeon, approaching,
asked to bepermitted to dress the wound
on TURNS sword hand, which was
bleeding -profusely.
The swords used had been rubbed
with an antisepetic but it is needless
to say that if Prince Henry sustained
wound -porforating the intestines the
danger Of peritonitis is great, and will !
not have passed for some days.
1t seems to afford general approval
to the average Partisan that the en-
counter was a reality and not a sham,

Lemarchand's boneless sar-
dimes go well at lunch-we've
had such a continuous run on
them that we have been forced
to duplicate our last large order.
Our present stock may not last
until the next arrives.
The whole world boasts of the
jams, preserves and pickles put
up by Crosse & Blackwell and
j. Il. Morton. Our stock con-
tains everything put up by these
well-known firms. The last lot
arrived by the Routenbeck and
are absolutely fresh.
We have goods from the
French factories that commend
themselves. Lemarchand's high
grade mackerel in oil is one of
them. These are timed in the
same manner as his famous sar-
dimes and are a rare delicacy.

A Hanauma Excursion.

A merry party of six young people
left town on Saturday evening on an
Intended excursion to the famous
Thurstonian fishing grounds at Ha-
nauma. They walked back to town
singly and in pairs arriving at vari-
GUS hours between midnight OF Sun
day and sunrise this morning aud
reported having such a glorious
time that they felt like the Morning
Star ON again being in port. The
excursion was full OF incidents from
start to finish and included wreck
ed wagon, runaway team, disrupt
ed glassware, hunger, cold, thirst
aud all the other ills that are con-
nected with trip to the grounds
where Thurston and his partner
held commune on partnership mat
ters. The large catch of fish which
was to be brought back did not ma
terialize, as the market was not
open at the early hours when the
first arrivals returned.

BEWARE OF sENsATIoNALrsMs

Now our dicky-bird says that this
"funny little republic" is discussing
whether or not to allow Queen Liliu-
okalani to return to her homo, The
ground taken by those who oppose
her return is that she is in Washing
ton seeking restoration. The INDE-
PENDENT has no such Information
and cannot therefore speak by the
record. But, admit for the sake of
argument that the royal lady is
seeking her own, is she not within
her rights? The armed forces OF the
United States deposed the Queen
and overturned the Monarchy and
il the Queen desires restoration she
has the right to seek it in Washing
ton. Where else?

We have curious Legislators in Ha-
wsi. First OF all the law provides
that a tobacco license shall be $40.
An applicant for tobacco license,
alone, is met with a refusal and the
statement that he must take out
general merchandise license, as two
sections in the law are apparently
contradictory. OF course there must
have been a motive in so framing
the law, but that is not worth dis
cussing and we cannot blame the
Interior Department for requiring a
judicial decision on the point in
question before unraveling the knot
ly difference between the letter and
the spirit of the law. Yet the
revenue suffers and many small
traders are considerably inconveni-
enced.

A number of complaints have
reached US in regard to sneak
thieves, who recently seem to have
found broad field of operations in
the vicinity OF the Hawaiian Hotel.
Potted plants and especially expen-
sive ferns are being carried away in
broad daylight from private resi-
dences. The thief will enter, knock
at the front door and if no response
is heard he will colly select fern
from the verandah and calmly leave
the premises. If a patrolman should
meet the thief outside the. gate he
would most likely see no reason to
ask any questions, and the man
would pass along with the fern, aud
tho owner be in tears and indigna-
tion upon realizing her loss. A
special detective-and we believe
the Marshal can spare a few-might
be of value in the quarters men
toned and the complainant ladies
will ever pray for Mr.. Brown if he
can protect their plants.

SENSATIONAL CONFESSION.
Convict Says He Is Guilty of the
Emmanuel Church Murders.

SAN FRANCISCO, May H.-Theodore
Durrant, through his attorneys, asked Gov
ernor Budd to-day to pardon him on the
ground that the real murderer of Blanche
Lamont has at last confessed his crime.
The lawyers declare that they have not
been hoaxed. nor was it their purpose to
impose on the executive. They insist that
in the person of John Rosenberg, a convict
at San Quentin prison, they have discov-
cred the man who is guilty of the horrors
of Emanuel Church. John Rosenberg has
made a sworn confession before a notary
public and in the presence of several wit
nesses that he killed Blanche Lamont at
the instigation of a stranger and in CON
sideration OF the aymen of 500 for his
bloody work. The story and its details is
one Of the most remarkable that has devel-
oped in the long case. Rosenberg is a Rus
sian sailor and arrived in this city on Il
sailing vessel from Hamburg, Germany,
during the last week of March, 1855, or on
the first day of April. He is now serving
a term for horsestealing and appears to be
sane.
If external appearances go for anything
Governor Budd was not f~aVorably i'm
pressed by the arguments advanced by the
attorneys. 1t was argued that Durrant S
trial had not been fair; that public senti-
ment had been aroused against him, and
the newspapers had SO prejudiced Dur
rants case that had any juror voted not
guilty he would have been mobbed.

ANOTHER AERIAL VOYAGE.
Professor Barnard fakes 81 Second
Trip In His Cigar-Shaped Balloon.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, May 14-Prof A.
w. Barnard made an ascension in his air
ship from the grounds of the Tennessee
Centennial Exposition at 7 o'clock yesterday
evening. He landed near Madison station,
eleven miles from this city, and returned
home to-day. 1t was Professor Barnard's
intention to navigate his ship toward the
city and then return and circle around the
exposition grounds. AT an altitude of sew
eral hundred feet he turned the ship sew
eral times in all directions, but as the YES
sci mounted higher and encountered a cur
rent of wind the ship sailed with il.
Professor Barnard says of the trip: Il
find that 1 can manipulate the machine
right or left even in a light wind. This is
certain. l cannot go directly against a
wind of eight miles an hour with muscular
power, as at present arranged, but by cut
ting across obliquely / can make progress
in the direction desired" Further trips
with changes in the apparatus will be made.
Though no special programme was ar
ranged for to-day, the attendance upon the
foreign department have been got into or
der, and this annex to the m build
ing is daily ~thronged. Tomorrow is to be
a special day set apart for the Knights Of
session. A public parade through the city
to the exposition grounds will be followed
by exercises in the auditorium, when an
address of welcome will be delivered by
Gov. Robert L. Taylor. Then the knights
will formally take charge of the beautiful
building the order has erected in the ex-
position grounds. Tomorrow will also be
children's day. For the first eleven days,
though the nights of five of these days
We're very inclement, the attendance was
50 255.

WAR ON PRICES PROBABLE.
Disruption of the Steel Beam Pool
May Result i'm Cut Rates.

PITTSBURG, May 1.-THE disruption of
the steel beam pool, the last vestige OF
combinations which held the more powerful
producers together, is regarded by local
brokers as likely to p%recipitate a rate war
along all lines. such as exist at present in
the rail and billet branches of the business.
The dissolution of the rail pool lowered
prices from $2S to SIS per ton, and this dis
ruption of the billet pool was followed by
a cut of from $22 to SIS per ten. 1t is
thought a cut in the pool price of beams,
etc, will only be a natural sequence, and
that the price will go below l cent per
pound. The ~abrogation of the pooling
agreement and the present price list viii
eventually prove of much benefit TO the
smaller manufacturers who are unable to
compete against the combined forces of the
pool. They will now have an equal show
with competitors, and may secure orders
that will start mills now idle. In view of
the fact that the structural iron trade is
in a prosperous condition at the present
time and improving right along, q general
scramble for orders will more than likely
occur within the next few weeks.
