She Has 'an Enormous Deficit, Estimated to Be About 60,000,000 Lire. ROME, Oct. 25. —As the date for the opening of the chamber of deputies ap- proaches it becomes very evident that the situation of p e ministry is one of extreme difficulty. T 0 financial problem is still unsolved. and the deficit is calculated at 00,000,000 lire. In semiofficiai circles it is asserted that the government will pro- ‘ pose tomeet this deficit with_20,000,000 lire of fresh economies, and with 40,000,- 000 lire of additional taxes, but as the army will not be touched the only hope of eflecting serious and durabieeconomies is a scheme for administrative organic re- form. Most of the public departments are, much overmanned, and there has been in consequence aloud chorus of discontent at the civil service. The proposed 'use of the official ax, however. has called forth many threats of political revenge. and the ministry is keenly alive to the difi‘l- culty confronting it in the pathof re- form. The ministers say that in order to make the relief to the budget quickly ap- preciable it is necessary to sacrifice some interests, and they will have to do this in spite of the threats of revenge. That portion of the press which is friendly to Premier Crispi insists that nothing but a comprehensive scheme of decentralization will save the financial situation. On the other hand, the news- paperswhicb are opposed to the premier hail the difficulties which he is encoun- tering as an undoubted sign of the early fall of the ministry and a. consequent‘se- rious blow to the premier, if not his cem- plcte political extinction and entire loss of prestige.

LEXOW MEMRRESTED Committee’s Agents Detained In Jer- . soy City With 3. Witness. CHARGED WITH EIDNAPING. Mr. Gofl’ Thinks That the Arrests Are the Result of 9 Conspiracy to Prevent Him .From Putting His Star Witness on the Stand. NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—-A dense throng filled part three of the superior court when Senator Lexow called the senate commit- tee to order at 11 o'clock on the expecta. tion that Mr. Gofi‘ would submit more sensational testimony, especially that he would put some of the police commission- ers on the witness stand.‘ A sensation Was caused by Mr. Gofl’, but of an entire 1y different character from that which was expected. Rising in his place and addressing the committee, Mr. Goff - said he was sorry to ask for an adjournment, but he was com- pelled to do so not through lack of testi- mony, but because of circumstances over which he had no control. He then stated that a certain witness whom he expected to testify. and who was coming on from Chicago for that purpose; had been arrest- ed in Jersey City on her way to this city, and the officers of the committee who were in charge of her bad likewise been arrested on a charge of kidnaping‘. The ’whole party had been thrown into prison. Their examination before the Jersey City authorities had been put down for 12 o’clock, Mr. Gofi‘ said, and he therefore requested that the committee take an ad» journment. He said it was impossible for him to go 015 under the circumstances. The committee agreed to Mr. Gofi’s re- quest. . Goff Calls It a Plot. In response to the request of the report- ers Mr. Gofl announced that the kidnap- ed witness’ name was Matilda Herrman. The members of the committee resent besides the chairman, Senator exew, were Senators Bradley. Robertson, O’Con- cr and Canter. Police Commissioner gohn C.- Sheehan was in attendance in obedience to a subpoena ready to testify when called upon, but Mr. Goff said that until the discharge of the Herrman wom- an in Jersey City had been secured and the plot which had been batched in this city for her detention and the arrest of the committee’s officers had been laid bare he did not feel‘ inclined to take up the examination of any other witnesses. Among those in the audience were Charles Stewart Smith, chairman of the ’ executive committee of the committee of seventy, the Rev. Father Ducey and many other well known men. In Jersey City it was learned that the arrest was partly due to Senator William ‘ D. Daly of New Jersey. The woman was desired to give testimony against the po- lice of the Fifteenth precinct of this city, to whom it is alleged she has paid large sums of money to be allowed to operate four alleged disorderly houses on West Fourth street, near Sixth avenue. Some months ago she was served with subpoenas to appear before the committee. Tricked to Hoboken." Her sudden disappearance reaulted in Mr. Goff’s suspecting that some of the subpoena servers were in collusion with ollcemen under suspicion. Private De- ective D. F. Wells of 271 Broadway was engaged to look her up. 1He found her at the Colonnade hotel, Chicago. and en- deavored to induce her to return and tes- tify before the committee. She refused. Wells. communicated with Sergeant-at- arms Thomas Kearney of the Lexow com- mittee, and a bogus telegram was sent to her with the information that her hus- band had broken his leg and was lying in a hospital in Hoboken in a critical condi- ion. Mrs.~Herrman lost no time in com- ing to her husband’s assistance. She ar- rived at the Pennsylvania railroad sta- tion at~ half past 7 o’clock this morning. Detective Wells/was shadowing her. Near the stairway leading to Montgomery street Sergeantvhtarms Kearney inter- cepted the woman. He asked her to con- sent. to go with him to New York, and subsequently Detective Wells joined in the Conversation. The woman became hi hly indignant and was gestieulating wfidly when Senator Daly approached her , and told her he had been retained as her. counsel. All Hands Arrested. Kearney and Wells wanted to compel the woman to go to New York, but Sen- ator Daly remonstrated and declared he would not permit her to be "kidnuped." A lively war of words followed. A crowd collected about the excited group. Mrs. Herrman shouted in a loud voice that Mr. Golf had telegraphed her, threatening to cause her indictment if she did not re- turn to New York, and that she had been lnveigied to come east by her enemies. Such confusion was caused in the station that Policeman Boyle finally capped the climax by arresting _Sergeant-at-arms Kearney, Detective Wells aners. Berr- man, charging them with disorderly con- duct. and took his prisoners to police headquarters in JerseyCity, Senator Daly bringing up in the rear. . The prisoners were arraigned before Justice Potts for examination at half past 11 o’clock. ' How Senator Daly learned that Mrs. Herrman had left Chicago is puzzling the Lexow committee detectives, and there isa suspicion that the New York police and certain attaches of the Lenow committee are in collusion with the Jersey City police to head off damag- ing witnesses; [flax-lull or Qu‘eenenerry ui'voruea.

Interfering \Vltli the Peaceful Settlement of Korea by Teaching That Japs Are to Be Distracted—Victor's ' Distributing Money. CHEMULPO, Korea, Oct. 25.-—-The pacific settlement of the country is seriously im- peded by the Tonghaks, who, although unarmed, are a standing menace to the Japanese interests on account of the spreading of their propaganda to mistrust the Japanese. The latter are scattering silver about the country with the object of purchasing the favor of the people, and it is stated that 100,000 yen have been distributed about Seoul alone. The Japanese hospital arrangements are very defective. and a number of' dead horses and cattle are found along the roads between Seoul and Ping-Yang. On the battlefield of PingoYang are many dead Chinese partially buried, and the stench from their bodies is terrible. It is new reported that the Chinese in- fantry cut through the Japanese at Ping- Yang, but it is said that the Chinese cav- alry was easily destroyed, as the horses stuck in the mud and their riders were shot before they could extricate their mounts. Many Japanese are suffering from dys- entery, and numbers of them have been brought to Chemulpo, where they were landed at night. An additional force of Japanese and Koreans left Seoul on 0ct.15, going south- ward in order to quell the disturbances raised by the Tonghaks. War prices prevail here, and the cost of averything has been considerably in- )reased. Peace Negotiations. WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.——The peace nego- tiations between China and Japan are likely to take an unexpected turn, accord- lng to diplomats here. who are informed an the progress of aflairs. The critical illness of the czar has for the time being diverted Russia from the attention she was going to give to the eastern war and has made it improbable that the czar should take the initiative toward bring- lng the contestants together. The inter- vention of England or France has been viewed with distrust owing to the terri- torial interests those countries have in Asia. Under these circumstances diplo- matic officials here say that Germany will undoubtedly take the initiative in any peace settlement. Whether such steps have already been taken is not known here, but the officials best acquainted with the facts say there is little doubt of the part Germany will take, and the inti- mation is made that the negotiations will not be deferred. The same authorities say that when the peace proposition is submitted Japan will be the more ready of the two bellig- erent powers to accept it, notwithstand- ing the reports that China was the more anxious for peace. The explanation given for this is that any peace settlement at the present time would be to the marked ad- vantage of Japan, owing to her recent victories, and to a corresponding disad- vantage to China. TheJapanese have ev- erything to gain by a settlement on the basis of the war up to date, while the Chi- nese have everything to gain by waiting until they offset these losses. The present basis of settlement as outlined by a mem- ber of the diplomatic corps would be the acknowledgment by China of Korean inde- pendence and the payment to Japan of an Indemnity covering. the expenses of the war. This basis, it is said, Japan would speedily accept. as it would permit her to retire from the conflict with added pres- tige Be a military power and with a large cash ipdemnity in her coiiers. China, on the contrary, is not expected to yield to such an arrangement humiliating to her pride and expensive to her purse. So that should foreign intervention under Ger- many’s guidance force the settlement it is believed that China. will be the power re- luctant to accept peace on the terms'pre. scribed. ..

He Declares That the General-Is Ideally Ineligible to a Beat“ In _Oong_ress Anyway—Other Political Gos- sip of the Metropolis. NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-—Tammany men generally are awfully excited over the stand taken by General Sickles, as made public last night, that hetvould not with- draw from the congressional race. When they first gave him the nomination, they thought him a most available man. - Now they are discovering that he is ineligible. William Sulzer, ex-speaker of the as- sembly and a candidate for congress, voiced the sentiments of the reét when seen by a reporter this afternoon. “If any man is to retire in the interest of harmony,” he said, “it should be Gen- eral Sicklcs. I do not see why he should not get out anyhow. What does he want to draw two salaries for? 3, “As a retired Federal officer he is get ting $5,000 or so from the government. Even if elected to congress and the house is Republican he would be declared in- eligible. “He is a rich man anyhow and ought to get out of the race new, particularly ii harmony could be secured by his doing so. H ;- . He Must Withdraw. Mr. Sulzer added that, sofar as he could ascertain, General Sickles was the only Tammany candidate whose withdrawal would probably he insisted upon. With Mr. Cleveland’s presence in town and the job of . straightening out the con- gressional nominations tangle on hand there was every prospect of lively times at Democratic state headquarters today.

Hinkley, were quite cross. When Chairman Thacher was asked about the prospects of harmony being ex- pected, he said that he had nothing to do with that end of the business. . Asked whether Mr. Cleveland was ex- pected to meet representatives from state headquarters, his reply was that if he had time he should in all probability call upon the president. Constitutional Suggestions. ’ Mr. Thacher pleased that he was very busy turning out constitutional amend- ment literature. He gave out the follow- ing afterthought, which should, he said, have been incorporated in the lengthy document- whlch was made public late last night: On the 20th day of September, 1894, a reso- lution was adopted by the constitutional con- vention, of which the following paragraph is an extract: “If a majority of the votes cast indorsed ‘eonstitutionai amendment legislative appor- tionment’ shall contain on the inside the words ‘For sections 2, 3, 4 and 5 of article 3 of the revvised constitution relating to legislative apportionment,’ then the amended sections therein described shall be sections 2, 3, 4 and 5 of article 3 of the constitution." It is claimed that section 2 of article 3 of the present constitution, which provides that the senate shall consist of 32 members and the assembly of 128 members will be replaced (should the constitutionali amendment be adopted) by section 2 of article 3 of the pro- posed new constitutionywhich provides that the senate shall consist of 60 members and the assembly of 150 members. ' There cannot be two section 2’s of article 3. Major Hinkley was as reticent as usual concerning the condition of ‘afi’airs rela tive to the congressional nomination busi- ness. ' » - “You know as much as I do about it,” he said wearily. “The whole thing is in abeyance now, and there will have to be another assembly. of the leaders before anything definite can be said.” Pittsburg's “Discretionary Pools" Muddle. PITTSBURG, Oct. 25.—-’Over a hundred women, many with babies in their arms, stormed the office of George M. Irwin & Co.’s discretionary pool this morning.

Manager Irwin made a little speech in which he said that they could have their money by giving five days’ notice after the date of the next dividend, but did not state when that date would arrive.- This did not sat- isfy the women, and the office was cleared by a policeman.
