FRANCE WANTS MORE.

 

. W ; .
a "New Demand on Shaw that Means chi

.'Dlsorganizatlon of-Her Army
and Navy.

' LONDON, Aug. 26. —-A special dispatch to .

The Times from Bangkok says that M._ 16
Myre do Vilers, the French special envoy,

has demanded that the Siamese govern. _

ment dismiss all Danish officers from the
Siamese service. The effect of such dis‘
missal would be the disorganization of
the Siamese army and navy. The dispatch
hdds that there' is every reason to fear that
France is seeking a pretext to satisfy the
demands of the Chauvinists in Saigon who
desire the acquisition of more Siamese tern
ritory on the right bank OfV the Me- Kong
river.

-M. de Vile’rs has announced in Bangkok
that ‘four more French warships are on
their way to that city. Further meetings
between M. de Vilers and ‘the Siamese for-

eign'mi’nister have been adjourned with-

out date.

' Another dispatch received in this city
from Bangkok says that M. de Vilers re
ceived the French residents of the Siamese
capital on Wednesday and requested them
to submit to his proposals or complaints,
especially' in regard to commercial mats
ters. He stated that his object in asking
for proposals or complaints was that he
might secure from the Siamese govern-
ment more definite measures to advance
French commercial and other interests.

'1 M. Bonneville. a leading French mer-
chant of Bangkok, in response, contrasted
the former prosperOus state of French

' trade in Siam with the present depression

and expressed the hope that more cordial

relations would be established between .‘_

that country and France.

FOUR PERSONS POISONED.

' 'They Ate Crabs and Died After S-ufl'erlng

Intense Agony.

:JERSEY CITY, Aug. 26. —A report reached
pelice headquarters that the residents of
West Bergen were considerably excited
over the death of four persons who had
died' in the past few days under peculiar
circumstances. All the circumstances in-

' dicate that the _four persons died frOm

poisoning.

- Miss Ann Lewis, who kept a. boathouse‘
at the foot of Culver avenue, West Bergen,
on Sunday last entertained John Ford, a
colored man, Gustavus Hatchlockcr and
a woman of the name of Connelly at her
place and gave them a. dinner. They all
ate crabs, and it is said that afterward
they were attacked by violent pains.

..Dr Pyle of Bergen avenue was called in
to attend them, but his professional skill
filled to save their lives. The four per.
ions are now dead, and County Physician
Converse will make an investigation to de-
termine the cause of their death. The peo-'
ple of the district got ,into a panic and
raised a cry of cholera.

The Misery In Brunswick.

WASHINGTON, Aug.V26.;-Surgeou General
Wyman of the marine hospital service has
received a telegram from Surgeon Hutton
at Brunswick, Ga. ., stating that about
1, 000 whites and 4, 000 blacks only were left
in that city. ' The destitution, he says, will
be very great unless something is done
verv soon.

A DESOLATE SCENE, ,

AVN INDIAN VILLAGE DEPOPULATED BY.

A MAN EATING TIGER.

The Inhabitants of a Native Village Driven ..

From Their Homes by the Ferocious Dur-
ing of" :1 Bold and Bloodthlrsty Ruler of
the J ungles. , »

As the party of a sahib one Indian oven-
ing came down the hillside by the widen-

ing path to the jungle village, no sound -‘

whatever arose from its few and humble
habitations. Nobody came out to make
.salutation' or to offer supplies. No cat-
tle were perceived wandering about, no

Children, no birds, except indeed many '

vultures upon the tree' m the square and

upon the temple roof. The pots 1n the .

grain dealer’s shop Were empty and over-
turned; _a piece Of cloth just begun was

On the other side of the .
way the chatties at a pottcr‘ s were tum- ,

in the next hut.

bled and broken, and a sheet of copper
lay at the blacksmith’ s f01ge half bent to
make some vessel, but precipitately aban-
doned. Wherever one gazed there were
signs of a hasty flight on the part of the
inhabitants. who did not seem to have
left anybody to represent them.

Yes, there was one silent and melan-
choly representative, and the sudden ap-
pearance of her would have startled the
party very much more than it did but
for a discdvery made by the sahib’s
ghoraWallah—the groom—close by the
silent and empty temple. There was a
muddy patch there in the square, from
which the last of the rainwater had but
recently dried up, and 1n the black slime
so left were deeply imprinted the “pudsV”-
Of an evidently Immense tiger. It was
of course evident now to the English-
man and those with him that the striped
terror which left those footmarks had
given the vi 1191ng notice to quit and
was somewheie or other near at hand
in practical possession of the fee simple
of the village.

Desolat e beyor ad expression was the .

little unpeopled “place” of the hamlet,

and' the look of the helpless red god V

staring from his port-100 upon the huts
that he could not protect, and the ex-
citement of the horrible vultures perched
on the cotton trees, aware, no doubt, of
the deadly 5001 st of the place, for round
the corner, by the dyer’ 3 shop, where

two or. three newly stained turban cloths“?

still hung upon walls to dry,, they came
upon that secret. Across the threshold
of a mud hut, evidently dragged off
from the broken charpoy on the earthen
floor, lay the body Of a' woman, torn on

the delicate brown neck and along the

shoulders and breast with long red claw
marks. A dead infant, also mangled by
a savage bite, lay half concealed under
the corpse, the appearance of the bodies
showing that they had only been lately
killed. No one could doubt what had
killed them. The sign manual upon
their bodies was surely that of the rOyal
beast who often in this way disputes the
right of his human rival in India and roars
to scorn the illusion that man is master
of created things.

The Sahib’s party was badly equipped
for tiger shooting and passed not with—
out anxiety and the closing up of the
three or four servants and coolies through
the outskirts of the evicted village. At

any moment her ladyship the tigress or *

his lordship the tiger, Who had taken
possession of the place, might emerge
from a. grain store or a 60W pen, or even
from some milk bush or jowari patch, to
ask the travelers what business they had
upon the royal property. The English-
man hastily put bullets into both barrels
of his shotgun and walked his horse as
quickly as his men could follow out of
the ill fated gaum.

At its outskirts they were astonished
to hear a Voice high above their heads
which came, as they afterward found,
from a. young Hindoo low caste man sit-
ting concealed 1n the branches of a large
mango tree from which could be seen
both entranbes of the village. He had
_made a rude platform in a fork of the
tree and watched on it with the long
barrel, of a matchlock protruding and by
his side an earthen jar Of water. They
invited him to come down and to tell
them the meaning of the extraordinary
spectacle they had witnessed. He de-
scended and informed them that for
months past his village had been infested
and persecuted by a tigress which, after
killing cattle and goats, had slain and
partly eaten three or four children out-
side the hamlet and had taken during
the past eight or nine daysto entering
the village at night and carrying of
as the Hin-
doos do, outside their huts under the
verandas. The woman slain that mom-
ing with her baby was the wife of the
poor matchlock 'man, and he had perched
himself in the tree hoping to avenge her
death when the sahib’s party passed.

It was too serious 9. case not to be re-
ported' 1n the proper quarters, and an
expedition of practiced tiger shooters
was equipped among the officers at the
nearest station. The beast was tracked
and was lulled after receiving 11 bul-
lets, and then it turned out that she
had a half grown cub which had 10st a
limb, and thus the maternal affection of
the ferocious parent had driven it to
these desperate ways. Indeed the spec-
tacle of that village was full of philo-
sophical suggestiveness. The dead hu-
man mother had been slain by reason of
the very same instinct which had made
her seek' in vain to preserve her child
from the attack of the tigress, driven to

its wit’s ends to find food for its own

helpless offspring. The tigress was In
her way as tender 8. parent as the lov-
ing mother whom she -murdered, and
then besides there was the whole vil-
lage depopulated to make one wonder
what sOrt of a world it would have been
'if, as might well have happened tigers
had envolved as masters Of the globe In-
stead of men—Edwin Arnold' 1n Lon

WASHINGTON, -Augi¥26;-—"_-At the close of

Senator Hill read his speech from printed
slips. His vOice was st1ong and clear, and
though he indulged in no] gesticulations
he used much emphasis and; ‘twrned his
face alternately from one side of the cham-
her to the other. As his desk is rather

president's course .in failing to refer to it
until this late day. He was a bivmctallist
and stood for free coinage at a. proper
ratio. Had the Sherman law been rcpealed
at the last session or in special seSsion on
the 5th of March, the United States would
have escaped the present panic and pre-
cluded the closure of the Indian mints.

Independent, free bimetallic coinage of
the United States was not consistent with
the counsels of the monetary science.
While repeal would not bring parity, it
would facilitate it by bringing that new
tangled monetary theory, gold monometaI-.
lism, begotten in the embraces of ignorance
with rapacity, at last to an unequivocal

- and crucial test. The permanent remedy

for our financial difiiculty was to return
to the bimetallism that existed prior to
1873.

Mr. Hill favored the increase of the na-
tional bank circulation as proposed in the
pending bill. Continuing, he said he re—

and as of the least consequence, but if

changed at all should not be enlarged, but

diminished to 15%, the Latin union ratio.
He should refuse to follow in the foot.

to place the Democratic party in a false
position and lead it into the-very camp of
the enemy. The president must rely upon
Republican votes to carry alt any. such
suicidal policy.

He did ‘not believe, hOwever, that any
such course would be taken by the presi-
dent by his own volition oreven under the
inspiration of indiscreet advisers until
clearer evidence shall be furnished than
now exists. ’

He deprecated hasty action in the forma-
tion of a definite financial plan and pre-
'dicted the failure of the attempt to impose
a. gold standard on India. Meanwhile the
prompt repeal Of the Sherman law was de-
manded as a measure 'on temporary relief.

Let us legislate upon the financial ques-
tion, said Mr; Hill, and then return to our
homes, next December resuming'the cen-
sid'eration Of a permanent system. His
distinguished colleague and himself would

renage. ” He predicted the passage. of the
bill by the senate and that the rcpublic
would weather the present sterin. ..
