The Disorders In France.

Paris, JUICE 22.-Premier Clemeu-
ceau's victory 10 the Chamber Of Dep
uties yesterday afternoon when after the
stormiest session witnessed in years he
secured vote of confidence for himself
and his policy by vote of 1926 to 22S,
today promises to prove a two-edge
sword.
News of the governments support Of
Clemenceal has been slow in getting to
the south, but it is spreading rapidly
today, and instead of weakening the
rebels or causing them to falter is prov
ing a red flag Haunted in the face of the
bull of discomfort
Reports received from Narbonne, Be-
ziers and Agde today indicate that the
mutiny of the troops has been quelled,
temporarily at least. The loyal military
and the police have the situation in
hand, but the government makes no
attempt to disguise the fact that the
situation is serious and fresh outbreaks
are expected.
Predictions of the downfall of the
present ministry are freely made today.
That the situation with the Cabinet de-
spite yesterdays action is the gravest is
generally recognized. ~.
An indication of the seriousness with
which the trouble in the wine growing
district is regarded WAS given when it
was officially announced today that the
intended visit of President Fslies to
Bordeaux has been postponed. A new
light was thrown on the situation today
by telegram to the Minister of War by
General Bailloud stating that much OF
the disorder incidental 10 the mutiny of
the troops yesterday was due to holigan-
ism and not to the main body of the
strikers.
Paris, June %. delayed dispatches

wires having been cut by rioters state
that riots of the most serious nature &C.
CURED last night at Montpelier. De-
tails are lacking other than the gen.

rioters and were badly worsied.

Little Girl Buried Alive.

West Chester, Pa, June % Only a
lingering doubt and the desire Of his
friends to believe his protestations of in
nocence early today prevented an attack
upon Irwin Lewis who is under arrest
charged with burying alive his fiye-year-
old slep-dsughter, Mary Robbins New
lin, whose body was taken from a rude
grave late yesterday in the presence of
Lewis himself, great crowd of men and
over two hundred women. The discov-
cry of the buried body of the child and
the absolute definite determination Of
the autopsy physicians that the little
girl was buried alive and that her death
was caused by smothering, has aroused
the country side to the greatest excite
ment. The childs head was wrapped
in a rough burlsp bsg and hemp cord
was fastened about the neck. The ply
sicisns say the string was not fastened
tightly, and that death could not have
resulted from that cause.
1t is the belief OF Prosecutor Nc
Elree, of Chester county, that the bag
was thrown over the child's head from
behind and she was thrown into the
grave and buried, being unable to cry
out. The birth of little Mary had been
cloud in the Newlin family Of which
Mrs. Lewis is a member. Edna Newlin
was employed at the Asylum for the
Insane at Embreeville when she be-
came engaged to marry a man who also
worked there. The wedding day was
set when her finance disappeared. She
vent home and little Mary Robbins
Newlin was born under her fathers roof
and was taken into the family. The
Newlns stand high in the community
and they demanded that their daughter
should be ostracized. 1t is said that
much unpleasant gossip had been going.
Lewis always protested bis love for his
wife's child.

he belonged to the union. We never
have been unwilling to deal with our en-
ployes, but never with the union. be-

fer with us as employees that their de-
mands could have been satisfactorily
adjusted"

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infamed condition Of the mucous lining
OF the Eustaehian Tube. When this tube il
intlamed you have a rumbling sound or i'm.
perfect hearing. and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine eases out Of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inhamed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case Of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

STATE Senator Arthur p. German, OF
Howard county Maryland, was unani-
mously renOminated by the democrats oil
that county in convention at EllicOlt
City Wednesday. There was no oppt
sition to the return of Senator German
to the Senate, where it is generally con-
ceded that his record was such as to en-
title him to return if he desired it. Some
months ago he announced that he would
be a candidate for denomination, and at
that time there was some talk of fight
being made against him. This failed
to develop and his friends we're in COM
plete control of the convention. How
ever Joshua N. Wafeld, brother
of the Governor, and who is chairman
of the democratic executive committee
of Howard county, declares he will not
only refuse to continue to serve, but he
does not believe he will support the
ticket named by the county convention.
He says further that there was a general
revolt against the domination of Senator
German and that many of the leading
democrats who had been devoted to his
father refused to follow the son. While
the reason assigned for the revolt is that
the leading candidates are Objectionable
to the best people in the county the un-
derlying objection is the refusal to send
any Warfeld men to the State cOnyen-
zion. Senator German, who controls
four of the six districts, inherited the
feeling his father entertained for the
governor, and is determined to give him
no consideration. Hence when the dele
gates were chosen he turned down War
field, who expected to be chosen dele
gate and selected a German man. Sem
ator German, like his father, knows
that the Warfelds are net true demo
Gratis and he did well to turn them down.
But for Gov. Warfeld's veto Of the
Maryland franchise bill, passed by
democratic legislature, Maryland would
have been democratic for the next TWEEN
ty years.

Bringing California's Fruit to Market.
To keep ahead of the rapidly increas-
ing growth of California fruit ship
ments the Southern Pacific is now hay
ing built $500 of the largest, most scien
tific and most expensive refrigerator
cars that have ever been turned out. A
large number of cars Of this lot are now
in use. They are coming out of the
shops at the rate of 25 per day and, as
the demand increases, additional equip
ment will be added to the $500.
All the year around demand for
oranges has increased to such magnitude
that the California growers have found
it necessary to propagate more very
early and very-late varieties, until now
there is not day in The year in which
citrus shipments are not made from the
State. The bulk of the fruit, however,
is handled between January LIST and July
1st. Some 20, 900 cars have been ship
ped this season aud there remain about
s, 900 cars to move, which are now 60
ing out at the rate of 1875 cars per day.
On account of the increased acreage that
is coming into bearing, next seasons
crop is estimated at about 1000 cars,
the movement of which will begin in
November.
To the orange and lemon shipments
are constantly being added larger guam
titles of small fruits which this year will
reach 1000 carloads. Three thousand
cars of vegetables have also come east
ward from California in the past season.
Owing to the high temperature in which
California fruit is loaded, and its ex-
tremely perishable nature, the railroad
company must give the most perfect
service TO handle such products success
fully. From the first carload of Cali
fornis fruit shipped eastward 10 1869 the
orange, lemon, and grapefruit shipments
alone have grown to 80, 900 carloads,
valued in one season as high as $27,-
900, 900. This has been made possible
mainly by the refrigerator car, in the
most improved types of which now being
built for the Hartman lines the tenn
perature does not chsnge more than two
degrees in ten days.
