ouenter of the Madrid restaurant, in the
Bois de BoulOgne. The proprietor gave
him credit, until one day he found that
Groult had run up a staggering bill.
Groult, when dunned, frankly confessed
his inability to pay. The dismayed
restaurant man was suddenly struck with
an idea. A life devoted to the pleasures
of the table was beginning to tell on
Groult "Pll tell you what TO do, "
said his creditor. "Gnsure your life in
nv favor for $4,000. Then come here
and eat all you want. No one will ask
you for money" Groult, as was ex-
pected of him, ate himself to death
quickly, and there was a good profit for
the Madrid restaurant in the bargain.
Unluckily, the proprietor died, too. Kins-
men of Groult sued to enioin payment
of the life insurance policy on the
ground that by encouraging him to eat
extravagautly the restaurant man was
responsible for his death. The court,
however, decided that the insurance
must be paid to the proprietor's widow.

FIRED ON BY INSURGENTS.

The Clyde Line steamer New York
arrived at Santo Domingo yesterday
morning convoyed by the United States
cruiser Newark, and Minister Powell
instructed the captain OF the vessel to
discharge his cargo at the wharf. An
agreement had been made by Minister
Powell and Commander Miller with the
insurgents and the government that
neither party should fire while the New
York was at the wharf dischsrging.
The government kept the agreement
but the insurgents fred on the steamer
and on a launch from the cruiser Newark,
which was entering the river. Eight
rifle shots damaged the New York 5
woodwork, endangering the lives OF the
passengers aud crew.
The commander of the United States
warships then decided to shell Pajarlto
near Santo Domingo, the place occupied
by the insurgents, and to land 800
marines. with the object of Furnishing
the insurgents for insulting the United
States flag and dana ing an American
steamer. g.,

The marines landed we're divided into
two columns, and searching the houses,

the insurgents, who fired while the ma
rines were reloading. The result OF the
bombardment is not known.
The New York left SaDto Domingo at
5 p. m., for the roadstead after landing
her cargo. All is now quiet, and it is
supposed that the insurgents have retreat
ed a considerable distance. Reports
from the interior are favorable to the
government.
Great misery exists in the city for

line steamer is agreat relief. The steam

Marines from the United States cruiser
Columbia remained stationed at PaJarito
(near Santo Domingo city, until yester-
dav afternoon, when they withdrew.
During the occupancy the insurgents
withdrew to a great distance without fur
ther resistance. TIE shells from the
cruiser Newark eau ed some damage at
Paiarito and the surrounding country.
A protest signed by prominent citizens
has been distributed to the public against
the action of the United States warships
which it describes as an iusolent outrage
against tie liberty of the republic and a
disgrace to the national dignity.
The Newark left yesterday afternoon
for Guantanamo The day passed quietly
but yesterday evening firing began at

On Saturday a French merchant
steamer entered the river, conveyed by
