French People Still Harbor
Strong Dislike for the Ex-
Empress Eugene.

Paris, June 1.-The ill-feeling of the
French masses toward the former EN-

empress who since her return from exile
has divided her time between the hotel
Continental in Paris, whence she could
look over the gardens of the Tulleries,
where once she reigned supreme, and the
watering resorts of the Riviera some
months ago. brought suit to recover-a
large number of articles now housed in
the French national museums. on the
ground that they had been the per
sonal" property of her husband and were
of no historic and little intrinsic value"
The case attracted no attention at the
time and practically went by de-
fault, but recently when the court de-
cided in the empress favor, a tremendous
outcry was raised. The newspapers took
the matter up. the empress was called an

empress claim and found that the arti-

the same tale in every port in France. Not

men aboard French vessels arriving I'M

belonging to Marseilles, was unable 10
sail because its officers refused to navi-

Little Rioting.
I'D to the present few acts of violence
have been reported. The directors of the
French line are most pessimistic relative
to the outcome of the strike and have ar
ranged with the Hamburg American line
for its vessels to call at Havre during the
strike for passengers. Meanwhile torpedo
boat destroyers will carry on the postal
and passenger traffic between the Medl-
terranean and colonial ports. Many of the
striking shippers are placed in a peculiar
posjtfon owing to the action of the au-
thorities in refusing to accept their pa
pers when presented unless accompanied
by the ship owners written consent
which is not forthcoming. These men
therefore are liable to punishment for de-

been agreed that the case for the de-

may. therefore, be several weeks be-
fore Mr. Richardson delivers his OPEN

point. This will mean probably that

be estimated that the case will last
sixty days after the opening tomorrow
