BRUSSELS. June 30.-After many stormy
scenes In the Cham Der OF Deputies to-day the
Government announced hat 1t was ready to
consider an important amendment to the
Electoral Reform bill securing representation
to minorties The Chamber adjourned until
Tuesday and pending NEGOTIATIONS on the
basis indicated by the Government. the 30
cialists have decided to discontinue street
agitation.
The Governments nctioA was a complete
surprise, and the bill has practically been
withdrawn. The consensus OF opinion Ia that
the Governments action In receding was In
spired by the King. The thousands OF people
outside the Chamber received the news with
the widest enthusiasm.
The Government has wisely diminished the
severity OF its military measures. as the Social
list societies throughout the country were arm
ing themselves. The moderate newspapers
express the belief that revolution would have
ensued II the Government had not yielded. 1t
is the general opinion that the King will ask
NJ Beernaert to resume the Presidency OF the
Chamber on Tuesday.
The riotlng in the city last night continued
until O'Clock this morning. The windows OF
the Bank Empain were smashed and many
other buildings were damaged. More than 100
persons were injured in the disorders. eight OF
them seriously. The disturbances were height
ened by the brutality OF the gendarmerle. The
entire country condemns the Government for
ordering out the gendarmes. and the people
showed their feeling by cheering the civic
guard which the gendarmes replaced by order
OF Burgomaster Bulls.
Everything indicates a calm until Tuesday.
The Socialists held a gigantic meeting this
evening at the Maison du Peuple, after which
they paraded the city. The Socialists and Lib
erals have agreed to persist In demanding an
adjournment OF the discussion on the Suffrage
bill.

Judge had pronounced sentence. but. upon
hearing her mothers cries. broke down and

1t was shown that the murdered woman died
after eating cake containing phosphorus. which

prisoner had insured her sisters life and after
her death had attempted to collect the insur-
ance The prisoner took advantage Of the new

Force Law Is Used for False Returns.
LEXINGTON. Ky. June 30.-United States
Senator William Lindsay. Democrat, says
he does not want to be target for
the silver Democrats any longer. but he
feels that the party is doomed to defeat
at the polls next November in this State. He
declares that the nomination OF William Goebe
means the refusal OF $4,000 Democrats to vote
for the State ticket. He thinks the Goebel
election law unconstitutional and wholly an I'M
Democratic measure, and he says that should
Goebel attempt to have himself counted in
through its Infamous provisions he will cause
a revolution.
He says the Republicans and sef-respecting
Democrats are long suffering in this State, but
should they be goaded to despair by the rapo
o: the ballot box. he believes there will be the
bloodiest times ever seen at Kentucky cleo
ton this fall. He does not believe Goebel is a
real silver man: that he has never changed
from sound money Democrat. but that he
has pretended to be converted in order to nlch
the nom nation for Governor.
