Prepared to Take Up Tariff Negoti-
atoms on Reaching Here.

PARIS, October 16.-M Jusserand, am
bassador to the United States, sailed on
the steamer La Provence from Havre to-
day to resume his duties at Washington.
He is prepared to take up tariff negotia-
lions as soon as he reaches his post. AS
previously reported. the attitude of the
French government toward the American
tariff has been considerably modified dur
ing the past few months as the result of
a matured consideration of the situation
and the unofficial representations Of Sem
ator Aldrich.
1t is understood that to avoid a tariff
war France is now prepared to offer her
minimum rates on a number. of articles
in return for a similar concession from
America, but it is also understood that
the list of such concessions IS rather linn

that opposition existed among the men,

lament was convoked yesterday.
In the senate only routine business was
transacted. and everything was calm.
but in the chamber of deputies violent
scenes were enacted.
Republican Deputy Azatti started
the trouble when he demanded that a
speech be ruled out Of order by the pres

ton protested uproariously. While Pre-
mier Maura was reading the tumult Gull
minated in the exasperated conservatives
rushing upon the republicans with raised
fists.

was carried out. although amid continual
Interruptions. Settling crowds surround
ed the parliament building during the
session.
Uproar in Council.
Meantime, the Madrid municipal coun-
ell had stormy session. during which
recent political events were discussed
with such bitterness that the republican
and socialist aldermen withdrew from the
meeting. The socialist member, Senior
Iglesias, began a declaration of protest
against the putting to death of Ferrer,
and when the president of the council
tried to silence him. shouted:
Il Will continue until am dragged ont
by the heels by the guards
The sitting was thereupon suspended,
but when 1t was resumed Senior Iglesias
returned to the charge amid tremendous
uproar, and finally the socialists filed out

Maura Blamed for Crisis.
The impartial says that the country is

a decided change for the worse took
place this morning some time after
o'clock. Dr. Magruder was hurriedly sum-
mcned. but Col. Leach was dead when
he arrived. The physician resorted to ar
tificial means of respiration. but to no
purpose. Mrs. Leach remained at the hos

HIGH SCHOOL CAPTAINS GET
TING COMPANIES I'm SHAPE.

Captains of the several companies OF
the High School Cadet Regiment, whose
appointments were announced last Thurs
day, are already engaged in organizing
their commands. and the usual rivalry
among the companies as to which will be
the most proficient at drill started the
moment the officers were assigned.
The recruits of the first year are rapidly
being taught the value of company spirit
and are rallying about their several cap
tains. determined to make their particular
command the best in the regiment. In
addition to the rivalry among the com
panies, there is also much competition be-
tween the high schools.
The Central High School has the entire
first battalion, composed of three COM
panies, under command of Maj. Robert
Gotta The captains commanding Cen
trails companies are William Covell .
Francis Mckinney and David Oettinger.
They were selected from among their
schoolmates as the most proficient in
studies during the past three years, and
after passing a competitive written ex-
animation on military tactics. which In
cluded the greater part of the infantry

was certified. to by their various teachers
and their military proficiency was judged
by Col. Burton r. Ross, their military in
structor.

countries.

livered. The strikers passed the monu-

Vatican Called Foe to Progress.
ROME. October 16-The general strike
continued undated today. Even the rad
zeal republican and socialist newspapers
were unable to get out their editions
Nearly twenty thousand workmen held
an imposing meeting. which was presided
over by the republican deputy, Signor
MaZza. Infiammatory speeches de-
nouncing the execution of Ferrer were
made, the speakers including the repubi-
can deputy, Signor Barzilai. and the So
cialist deputy. Signor Morgari.
The latter assailed Spanish reactionism
and also attacked the Vatican. which. he
said through its clergy throughout the
world represented anti-liberalism and
anti-prOgress.
Violent Scenes in Rome.
Suspicion is aroused that the agitation
is deliberately protracted by the leaders
in order that demonstrations may be
made coincideat with the visit of the
Russian emperor to Italy.
Indeed. NJ. Morgari. who is the soul of
the campaign against Emperor Nicholas,

Several Italians, who have acted as

condemned recent acts of vandalism on
the part OF mobs, and are urging the peO-
pie to maintain a dignifled attitude and
to end the strike at midnight.

Comment of Philip snowden.
Two leading socialists being absent,
1t devolved upon Philip Snowden to
voice the party's views. He said:
This Is nothing more nor less than
an outrage against decent thinking men
why King Alfonso could sanction the
action for one moment I cannot under-
stand. At any time his life even dur-
ing the most peaceful times possible in
Spain. is hardly worth an hours pur-
chase.
There Is no telling what this act
may lead to. Such injustice and cruel
.barbarism Is sufficient to infiame all
Europe"
The General Federation of Trades
a resolution deploring the outrage upon
civilization perpetrated by the Spanish
government. Sunday evening mass
meeting will be held in st. James Hall
by the National Secular Society to ex-
press indignation at what the society
calls a crime.
The unanimity of the British press in
condemning the execution of Prof Fer
rer at Barcelona is all the more remark
able considering how fiercely the union
lists radicals and socialists are preparing
for the great fight at the polls.
Politically, i'll feeling never ran higher
than at the present day, but In this mat
ter they are united. The general fear is
a lift up. there being no defense for the
act.
Views Of the Press.
Thus, the conservative Morning Post
says:
Outbreaks of violence are the natural
consequence OF the execution. They can
dicate a frame of mind that threatens
the order of European society,"
The unionist Daily Express says:
"An important factor is that Ferrer
has become a socialist martyr. The So
cialist is an enemy Of society. His SYM
pathies and enmity are international.
The sins Of one government are visited
upon another
The conservative Yorkshire Post says:
1.-The execution was unquestionably q
blunder. and the Spanish government may
find it a blunder OF the worst kind. The
execution and the resultant demonstra-
tons viii encourage the worst political
elements in all civilized countries. and
this the more so because the elements
which make for law and order cannot
offer any defense of what has been done. =
The equally conservative Shefiield Tele-
graph says:
1T was q political blunder, il not a
crime. An act Of clemency at this mar
ticular juncture of affairs would have
been worth more to the Spanish throne
than the fate Of . dozen cabinets, and
