MILITARY DETAILS In
PARIS DECREASED

PARIS, Oct. 16.-The military details
were decreased in strength to-day, ex-
cept in the case of troops on duty at
the railroad depots. The detachment
on duty at the Town Hall, near the La
Dor Exchange, which has hitherto been
composed of company of infantry and
two troops of cavalry, has been en-
tireiy withdrawn. In addition the sol
diers are no longer confined to barracks
and are promenading the streets as
freely as USUAL -
Outside of Paris the same state of af-
fairs prevails. The troops have been
withdrawn from the railroad station at
Rouen, where all fear Of trouble has
vanished.

of practice in bowling in spiketail coats,

will wear when he gets to ''civiliza-
tion," as he does now, broad brimmed
white felt hat, a brown wool shirt, a
brown coat, trousers of a blush tinge

care much about notoriety, and guessed
that a good deal more had been printed
about him than he had ever seen.

few weeks cleanup without sluice-

pnsroFFICE ODDITIES.

There is something, very touching in
the confidence of the public in the
powers and sagacity of the Postoffice
Department. A correspondent once ad-
dressed a letter thus:

house near Cleobury Mortimer, little
Within four days of the arrival of the
communication the department succeeded
in finding the gentleman, and duly delfv-
cred the letter.
The department, however. had to con-

telegram to her home to say that she
and asked that the latchkey should be
sent together with the electric message.
Another disappointed applicant was a
young man who entered the Northampton
postoffice and asked at the counter for a
marriage license, stating that he wished
to get married without any one knowing
it, 1t was a long time before he could be
persuaded that the sale of marriage IL
censes belonged to another department of
the administration, and that hte postoffice
was powerless to help him.-London Ex-

EMISSARIES TURNED BACK
FRENCH GOVERNMENT BAD
BEEN WARNED.
Sole Consequences of the Aborttve
Conspiracy Will Be the Dis
placing of Several High
Army Officers.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

LONDON, Oct. 15.-Special dispatches
from Paris say that the sole conse-
quences of the abortive attempt at a
military coup d'etat will be the early
displacement of several officers Of high
rank.
PARIS, Oct. 15.-The anti-revision
papers regard the reported discovery Of
a military plot against the Government
as being pure invention. The Figaro
says it is informed that the French
generals agree in declaring that their
duty is to show absolute obedience to
the Government.
The Gaulois classed the affair as a
conspiracy without conspirators." But,
in spite of this, the papers which an
nounced the conspiracy insist upon the
exactness of their information.
The Petite RepubliQue Franchise
points out that there has been no Off
cial denial of the reported conspiracy.
The Aurore asserts that the Govern
ment received warning of the plot from
different sources and possesses import
ant documentary evidence and state
ments of witnesses.
According to the Petit Bleu, the gen.
erals engaged in the plot met at Yer
sailles and sent emissaries to Prince
Victor Bonaparte. The hesitation of
Prince Victor, however, obliged them to
turn in another direction. The Govern
ment, the Petit Bleu adds, has received
a number of reports in regard to the
plot, one of them calling attention to
the absence of a certain commander of
an army corps from his headquarters.
The Paix states that Prince Victor
Bonaparte left Turin October and ar
rived in Brussels October IL. The
paper adds that, during this interval,
Prince Victor crossed the French from
tier several times.

and there was a constant stream of

The Mohegan, it is now said, has
been an Inflated vessel from the start.
1t is added that she was only bought
by the Transport Company when their

New York in such a condition that
she was sent home empty, and her re-

has been in dock undergoing repairs,
but the mana gers say she was in per-

name. 1t is asserted. however, that In
a twenty-four hour trial last week
her performances were very unSatlS-

go on her on account of the previous
defect in her engines. 1t is surmised
here that the engines broke down and
that the vessel, in the rough sea and
heavy gale which prevailed, drifted on
the rocks.
The wrecked steamer was command
ed by Captain Griffiths. Her chief Of
fcer was Mr.. Couch, her second officer
Mr.. Cole, and her third officer Mr..
Hindmarsh.
NEW YORK, Oct 15.-The office of
the Atlantic Transport line was crowd
ed to-day with people inquiring anx-
iously about friends and relatives.
Henry Morrison, an elderly lawyer,
inquired about his son, Henry Morrison
Jr., and his step-daughter, Miss Han
nah Hart. When Mr.. Morrison learned
that the names OF his son and his step
daughter were on the passenger list he
tainted.

The Mohegan was originally intended
to sail on the 9Th inst and the Manitoba
on the 18th, but the company for some
reason substituted the Mohegan for the
Manitoba and transferred many of the
passengers.

We left London on Thursday and all
went well until Z o'clock yesterday
evening, when most of the passengers
were at dinner. The steamer was go
ing at full speed, when suddenly we
heard a loud crash, which seemed to
denote that we had collided with some
other vessel. But when we rushed on
deck we found that the Mohegan was
on the rocks between the Manacles and
the Lowlands, in the vicinity Of the
Lizard.
Orders were given Immediately to
lower the boats and the crew of the

est order prevailed among the officers
