LONDON EXCHANGE CHEERFUL
There Was Decided Increase in the
 Business

London, March 25.-The tone of the stock exchange last week was more cheerful. There was a decided increase in business, stimulating the hope that the long expect ed revival had come at last.

NEGROES PASS RESOLUTIONS
They Condemn Acts of Some Ruffians
 in Phoenix City

Columbus, Ga, March 25.-(Specia1)- Phoenix City Ala. seems to have recov- cred from the excitement of day or two ago. when determined incendiary notes written ito Chief of Police Campbell by ne- groes, threatening to bring on race trouble in that town. The older and more con- servative negroes have held a mass meet ing in which they disavowed the conduct of the young and reckless element which had caused the trouble. They adopted the following resolutions at a meeting attend ed by a large number of negroes and number of white people,
 "Whereas. There have been some threat ening notes written to the marshal of Phoe- mix City; and
 'Whereas, It Is supposed that some party parties of the colored people are guilty of the said offence of trying to intimidate or debar the officer in the discharge of his duty in enforcing the laws against violat- CTS:
 "Therefore, be it resolved. That we, the colored citizens, in mass meeting assembled in this hall, on March 2S, 1900, in Phoenix City, condemn and denounce the party or parties who may be guilty of such coward ly act, and that we call upon all good citi- zens of the town, both white and colored, to do all that they can to suppress such, that peace and harmony may prevail among us, and that We win do all in our power to find and expose such one or ones, whether they be male or female"

Judgment Has Been Postponed

Berne, Switzerland, March 25.-The Dela- goa Bay arbitration judgment, which had been announced for tomorrow, has been postponed for a few days. This is not be- cause the amount of the indemnity has not been fixed, but because of difficulties which arose at the moment of signing the award with re: pect to the distr button of the in- dernnity among the differ nj groups of claimants.
 The amount of the indemnity has been settled, and the question of division is one of secondary importance, which widl speedl- ly be settled. It is thought almost certain

In the ranks of the come dians is the ever genial and famous come dian, Henry Clay Barnaoee, the unctious George Frothingham and that brilliant baritone, w H. Macdonald, whose superb vocal methods and grace and finesse in act ing stamps him one of the really grea. artists on the American stage. Among other famous singers may be noted the handsome tenor Frank Rushworth; the distinguished basso, John Dunsmure; the splendid character actress and vocalist, Josephine Bartlett; w. H. Fitzgerald, Charles R. Hawley, Grace Cameron and the beautiful young danseuse, Edith Hen dee. No organization gives such care for detail as do "The Bostonians," and no oth- CT company, with the exception of the Met ropoitan Grand Opera company, carries with it complete orchestra, and especial attention is directed toward the choral ad- junct and orchestral background furnished by the veteran director, s.

Ada Kehan


 Miss Ada Rehan has returned to the American stage for a short spring tour. We can timely say we have missed her, for in her line of work she has no rival. She will give us a repertoire of powerful characters of the legitimate dramas, and after witnessing one of her inimitafble i'm presentations we feel that we have seen something worth our money. We do not wish to disparage other actresses. but the most of them today have drifted into the flimsy and fashionable, but unwholesome type of character, that leaves no lasting memory behind, while Miss Rehan has strenuously endeavored, by her force of acting and faithful portrayal of the more intellectual heroines of the drama, to chal- lenge an admiration and fix a name and place in history that will live with the heroines of the good old days of the drama. Miss Rehan will be seen at the Jefferson theater next Friday night in the character which she has made all her own-that of Katherine in "The Tanning of the Shrew'

TROUBLE IN THE
 FRENCH CHAMBER
NationaIistS and Their Opponents
 Struggle for Supremacy
PAPERS VIOLENT ATTACKS
Question of Abohshing Public Execu- tions Brought Up in the House The Proposal Came
 from Senate

Paris, March 25.-The Waldeck-Ro Rousseau ministry, after enjoying a short breathing space had to sustain another assault from its nationalists opponents in the chamber of deputies this week and came through the ordeal without much difficulty Indeed, the only result the nationalsts achieved is to accentuate the fact that the government has come to stay through the exposition Their organs beat the air with violent and ceaseless strictures upon the governments policy, and will almost embroil France in foreign complicatons; but parliament seems determined to leave the reins of pow CT in M. Waldeck- -Rousseau's hands.
 The opposition having, in frontal attacks, tried a flanking movement on Friday and again come to grief. They brought forward two interpellations, which were pistols lev elled at the head of M. Millerand and the minister of commerce and industry and both missed fire. M Millerand is the na- tionalists' Bette Noire and is also the most vulnera ble point in the governments armor on account of his socialistic opinions, and in Fridays interpellations the opposition sought to show that his action in the ques- tions under discussion was prompted by his own personal interests and was to tho rre- judice of the interests of the country. The success of the interpellations would have involved the resignation of M. Millerand and a cabinet crisis. which the oposition had would lead to the breaking up of the ministry ''to divide order, to overthrow government" as M. Millarand himself de- soribed their tactics in defending his ac- tion.

The Subvention Granted

The first interpolation, which accused M. Mfllerand of promising subvention to one or two rival chambers of commerce at Yer sailes, the president of which is one of M. Millerand's friends. and having violently attacked the French minister to Belgium, M. Gerarde, was withdraw on M. Delcasse. the foreign minister replying that the cab inet had unanipously decided to grant the subvention. This declaration showed that no dissension existed within the ministry in regard to the matter.
 The second terpelation-regarding the decoration of the dressmaker Paquin, to whom it was insinuated M Milerand is under obligations-resuled in the chamber vclting to proceed with the order of the day. which was tantamount to a vote Of confidence in M. Milerand, by a majority of 65.
 A third Interpolation, this time aiming at the minister of the colonies, M. Decrais who come before the chamber of Monday, when NJ. Duquesnay and Guilbert depu- ties for Martinique, will raise the ques- ton of responsibility for the recent troubles in that island.
 These fruitful discussions prevented the chamber from doing useful work in abol- ishing public executions, which subject is awaiting the attention of the house in the form of a proposal which has not been adopted by the senate Some opposition is manifested towards it by deputies who seem to harbor an inexplicable fear that executions will partake of a clandestine character. M. Castiard, the reporter, who Introduced the bill early in the week. dwelt upon the fact that the measure would do away with the scenes and midnight orgies which now disgrace public executions in France. "We shah hear no more" he said 'tthe mob accompanying, with obscene dit ties the last walk of the unhappy criminal to the scaffold. It is time to put an end to these demoralizing spectacles."
 Religious Properties
 A bill which will nave stupendous con- sequences if adopted was introduced in par liament this week by Ex-Premier Brisson. It provides for the secularizatien of prop critics of religious congregations and their conversion into a pension fund for working people In the preamble M. Brisson points out that these congregations possessed in 1880 lands and other property worth 75O000, GOO francs. It is considered hardly likely that parliament will adopt such measure
 
 erty.
 The sensational story published in certain papers that grave situation had arisen in Morocco as the outcome of the French oc- cupation of the Oasis of Insalah is denied in official quarters, where it is declared that Morocco protested but only in Pla- tonic way, in the matter, which is being arranged without any serious friction.
 The absence of startling events in the Transvaal war this week has tended to some diminution in the interest among Frenchmen, without changing their sym pathies for the Boers. An indication of this is found in letters written to the news papers suggesting that in the event of the Boers being completely vanquished France should offer them an asylum in Madagas- car, where concessions of land should be granted to them
