A WARM REJOlN DER
BY Joseph w. Henderson TO the
Recent Speech OF Ex-Governor
Northern, of Georgia.

BOSTON, June 1S.-Joseph ~. Hen
derson, of Providence, founder OF the
American Protective League, delivered
an address in the Spark street church
to-day, in which he replied to the re-
cent speech of Ex-Governor Northen,
of Georgia, with reference to the South-
ern outrages upon colored people. Said
Mr.. Henderson,:
1T is not necessary at this time for
me to make any reply to Governor
Northen's dramatic defence OF human
slavery. But had / been an owner OF
human beings and man-killing dogs.
as he has been, and since written my
name among the followers OF Christ, 1
would have felt more like coming up TO
the altar of repentance at this stage
OF reform, than To have come 10 one OF
the greatest cities in tho world with
typewriter defense of the most cruel
institutions Of human debauchery ever
known to civilized or savage men.
Were 1t not that II was In Georgia that
my poor mother was born--there that
she tremblingiy obeyed the slave-
masters whip and felt the slaves
hounds bite: there that she was sold
and deported for life from her blood
and kin, | would not stoop to dignity
Governor Northen's pro-slayery utter
ances even with a sheer.
Governor Northen says that miscegua~
ton By law VIII never take place in tho
South. But the r1sscegnation in the South
has already taken place. IL has been on
the road over two hundred years. No mis-.
cegnation b. law. but BY brute force,
which is the very worst form OF law. VINO

nor was Il the poor white trash. Ii was
the blue yeined aristocracy Of the South
that broke over the fence. dehed all law,
and the result is that we have black me-
groes and white negroes. some OF them
as white as Governor Northen.
"The increase OF miscegnatIon in tho
South is due chiefly to three causes.
namely. force. financial persecution and
diseernible Willingness on the part OF both

FRENCH CRISIS.
President Loubet Having Much
Difficulty in the Formation of a
New Cabinet.

PARIS, June 1S.-President Loubet
received in audience early this morning
M. Casimir Perier, former President of
France, and consulted with him re-
garding the ministerial crisis. The
interview terminated about IL o'clock,
after which M. Loubet received Senator
Pierre Waldeck- Rousseau
The latter, it is understood, has made
his acceptance of the task of forming
a cabinet conditional upon the cooper
alton OF NJ. Casimir Perier and certain
sections of the Chamber OF Deputies,
which he hopes to secure. He has con-
suited with several statesmen and has
had very long conference with NJ.
Lepine, former project of police of
Paris
M. Waldeck-Rousseau is meeting with
considerable difficulty, but he appears
determined. He will confer with M.
Loubet again, probably tomorrow
morning, before submitting a draft list
of colleagues.
OF the three former premiers whom
he has consulted, Maurice Rouvier, who
was president of the Council of Minis
tiers and Minister of Finance in 1887,
alone consented to take a portfolio.
Felix Meline informed him that he
failed to see how his appointment as
premier would bring about a solution
of the crisis. Henri Brisson contented
himself with promising support and ex-
pressing good wishes.
NJ. Waldeck-Rousseau waited upon
M. Cassimir-Perier and earnestly en-
deavored to induce him to accept the
portfolio of war. on the ground that
his presence at the ministry OF war
would simplify the difficulties of the
situation. Thereupon NJ. Casimir-
Perier consulted with the President
who pointed out to him that he would
be able to exercise more authority than
any one else over the generals in de-
stroying the germs of irritation. Cash
mir-Prier replied that he had definitely
withdrawn from politics, but neverthe-
less would undertake to consider the
matter.
Nj. Waldeck-Rousseau was notified of
this reply, which gives him full liberty
to constitute a cabinet of republican
union.
The question now is whether he will
go so far as to induce a socialist in the
ministry. He, himself. is indisposed to
do SO, and no doubt his view will pre-
vail.
1t is said that Clement Fallieres,
president Of the Senate, informed NJ
Loubet this afternoon that the Senate
seemed opposed to the inclusion of
Alexander Millerand. the Radical So
cialist, in the cabinet
1t is understood that If NJ Waldeck-
Rousseau fails, the president will again
summon M. Poincare, whom he has
asked TO remain in Paris at his On.
Loubet's) disposition.

The Cruiser Sfax Expected to Reach Brest
BEFORE saturday
PARIS, June ia despatch from
the Cape Verde islands announces that
the French second-class cruiser Sfax,
carrying Captain Dreyfus, has passed
en- route for Brest, where she is expect
ed before Saturday next.
1t is understood that Captain Drey-
fus will be landed by night, and that
special train will be in xsiting to take
him to Rennes, where the court
martial is to be held.
Gen. MERCER, who was Minister for
War when Captain Dreyfus was con-
demned, spoke publicly for the first
time since the court of cessation rem
dered its decision, at meeting of the
French Patriotic League yesterday.
where he was greeted with loud ap-
plause.
Your acclamations, said Gen. Mer-
cier, ARE addressed only in a small
part to the soldier who did his duty in
1894, and is firmly resolved to accom-
plish it in 1899 They are chiefly ad
dressed to our dear army, which at
this critical moment, you do me the
honor of regarding as the standard
bearer"
He then proceeded to declare his abb
solute conviction of the guilt of Cap
tain Dreyfus and his belief that the
Rennes courtmartial would fearlessly
ascertain the truth and do its duty.
As for myself" he declared, q shall
tell everything l know
This, as prominent advocate of re-
vision remarked, is just. what is
wanted.

TWO THOUSAND
Employees of the Maryland Steel Company
to strike.

nploF es OIL the maryland steel COMPANY
to strike.
BALTIMORE, Nd, June 1S.-Two
thousand employees of the marine de-
partment, Maryland Steel Company.
held a meeting to-day and determined
to strike at the end of seven days if
their demands for nine-hour day and
weekly payments were not acceded to
by the company. Committees were
appointed to present their ultimatum
to the heads of the various departments
tomorrow morning.
A strike at Sparrows Point at this
time would be a serious matter. Five
thousand men are employed by the
company, and a tie-up of one depart-
ment would doubtless soon affect the
other branches.
The company now has under con-
struction three torpedo boat destroyers
for the navy, a steamer for the New
York and New Haven Steamboat com
pany. two ocean-going GOLFERS, a 136
foot tug and steel dry dock. If the
present movement is successful. the
men, as whole, it is said. will take
up the company system, of patronizing
only the company stores for their me-
