New York, Feb. 10. Emily Craw-
ford, in copyrighted letter to the As
ISOLATED Press from Paris, dated yes
terday. says
Everything is very quiet in Paris to-
night. There is no danger Of coup
detat. The favGrite candidate for the
presidency is NJ. Emil Loubet, now
president of the senate. Still the min
istcrs whom saw think that Faure's
death is misfortune al the present
time. and this is the conventional talk
They had all looked forward to having
soon TO resign and they spoke to-day
Of the possible effect of his death on
the courts Of Europe.
If NJ. Loubet be elected European
soyereigns would soon transfer to him
their friendly regards. He is a good
unaffected, leyel-headed man Of hon
est, open life, and far more intellectual
culture than poor Faure. He is an
advocate and practiced AT the Monte
Malar bar. in the department. of Drom.
Monte Malar is his home. As Il pre.
caution against a coup d'Ctat or any
thing of the sort the troops have been
ordered to keep within barracks in all
the garrisOns.

The FsShOdn Incident.
Or. Lanne-Longue attributes the
break down in the presidents health
TO Fashoda. and thinks the consequent
anxiety used up his energy. President
Faure had fostered the scheme Maj.
Marchand was sent to accomplish, and
he was terrified at it's possible conse-
Quences. DIR. Lanne-Longue tells me
that after the Fashoda incident Nj.
Faure lost his appetite. 1t was then
he began to feel so limp in the legs
that he feared to ride on horseback.
The German emperor's telegram Is
ELUSIVE. Dowager Queen Emma and
Queen Wilhelmina. of the Netherlands,
have telegraphed heartfelt condol-
ences: Queen Victoria as yet has made
no sign. but Lord Salisbury has, in
message to NJ. Delcasse. The car and
czarna are full Of sympathy and Rus
sian grand dukes. now in Paris, have
called at the palace.
M. Faure's death has Gained rather
than excited political parties. The sit
