A (lj our-11m cut.
Paris, Oct. zit—Vast crowds gathered
in the Place de la on’cordegat 41.30
o’clock yesterday afternoon and began
a violent demonstration.
The police, who were on the alert,
and in strong force, charged upon the
crowd and several persons were injur-
ed.
A number of the own d we e a1rested,
including one of the editors of Libre
ParOle.
The popular demonstrations are be-
coming more violent. The mob has
bit-med several kiosks. The police con-
t)” ue to make arrests, but it has no
6' act in subduing the disorder.
A crowd led by M. Guerin, president
1 1’" the Anti—Semitic League, made an
attack upon the police with loaded
sticks, nea rthe Obelisk.
M. Le Proust, commissioner of police,
was seriously wounded.
The opening of-the session of the
Chamber of Deputies yesterday was ,
the occasion of a good deal of public
excitement. At least 100,000 persons as—
sembled in.the Place de la. Concorde
shouting “Long live the army,” “Down
with traitors," etc., and vastly more
interest was displayed in. the Dreyfus
case than in the Fashoda. affair.
The Nationalist deputies were loudly
applauded as they made their appear-
ance.
The floor and galleries were crowded
with deputies when the chamber was
called to order at 3.15 o’clock.
M. Paul Deroulede, Revisionist, first
secured recognition and ascended the
Tribune. He declaredth‘at it was nec-
essary for the ministry to put a. stop
to the unhappy differences which now
divided the people.
General Chanoine, minister of war,
mounted the Tribune to reply. He said
that Deroulede and— his friends were.
cevidently prepared to take the "minis-
try in their own hands. For his part,
he declared, he was happy to an-
nounce his resignation of the war port-
folio.
A scene of excitement ensued, amid
which General Chanoine abruptly left
the chamber.
Premier Brisson then took the Trib- .
une and in a. forcible speech appealed
to the chamber for support in main-
taining the supremacy of the civil
power.
General Chanoine, in announcing his
resignation, repeated the declaration of
his predecessor General Zurlinden, that‘
Dreyfus was guilty. .
M. Brisson protested against the
manner of General Chanoine’s resigna-
tion, declaring it to be contrary to 1111
precedent. He said that General Cha-
home, at the Session of the cabinet
council in the morning had not dis-
~ closed his intention to resign and had
accepted with his colleagues the pol-
icy of revision by the court of cassa-
tion.
M. Brisson demanded an adjournment
of the chamber in order to enable him
to consult with his colleagues, and the
sitting was suspended amid great ex-
citement.
Later M. Bri sson wcr t to the Elysee,
presumably to tender to the president
the resignation of the cabinet.
. General Chanoine evidently resigned
upon the impulse of the moment, spur-
red to furious anger by the taunts of
M. Derou ledc.11l1om he literally chased'
from the Tiibune.
While this was going on scenes of
disordel and violence 11 ere taking place
in all parts of the chamber.
M. Brisson left the Elysee after a
prolonged interview with President
Faure. - ”
It is probable that M. Brisson will
himself temporarily act as minister of
war.
The entirely unexpected announce-
ment of the resignatiOn of General
Chanoine has produced a. profound im— ,
pression in political circles, where it is
believed to presage the early defeat of
the ministry.
The chamber by a majority of thir- ‘
teen passed a vote of confidence sus—
taining the Brisson ministry.
The vote of confidence comprised the
government’s order of the day affirmw
mg the supremacy of the civil power
over the military and adjournlng inter-
pellatlons until Thursday.

No Thought of Giving the French a
Foothold. g
ure of the situation was the appearance
yesterday evening on the stump of
Lieutenant VWinston Churchill, the son
of Lady Randolph Churchill, who was
formerly Miss Jennie Jerome of New
York.
The lieutenant, who has just. return‘
ed from the Souda-n, -made an eloquent
speech before a crowded house, which
included his mother.
After referring to the successful for-
eign policy of the government, which,
he said, had “resulted in cordial re-
lations with the great American repub-
lic. which speaks our language and
uses our laws,” Lieutenant Churchill
tion, and his resolute advice to the
government not to yield was received
with ringing cheers.
In the course of his
lieutenant said:
“A great military power with which
we have lived in friendship has delib-
erately crossed our path and has put
an affront upon us, and it may be only
a. matter of a few days. or a few hours
when we shall be called upon to make
a great‘ effort to hold what belongs to
us.”
The principal interest is centered in
the Marquis of Salisbury’s addition to
the Fashoda correspondence, contained
in the publication of the British Blue
Book on that subject.
The Conservative newspapers ex-
remarks the
- press themselvesas being highly pleas-
ed with his rejoinder to the French'
Yellow Book on the same subject. They
declare that it dispels the idea spread
by the despatch of the French ambas-
sador here, Baron de Courcel, that the
British premier was willing to negoti-
ate on the whole question.
But the Liberal and Radical organs
still consider that the Marquis of Sal--
isbury’s attitude admits of negotiations
promising a friendly arrangement.
The entire press, however, scouts the'
idea of the possession of Fashoda‘com-
ing within the sphere of the discus—
sion.
The St. James Gazette yesterday af—
ternoon said:
“We are prepared to’ negotiate the
question of the western frontier of the
Bahr-el—Ghazal district. But we must.
control the Nile,- both banks and the
water sheds, from its source to the
sea."
The Globe thinks the Marquis of
Salisbury has made it clear that Major
Marchand must quit Fashoda without
conditions, adding: "Until that is done
there can be no discussion at the,
French claims in Africa."
A DEAD-:MAN AT THE HELN.
Strange Discovery of, a Fireman on an
Erie Express Train.
Port Jervis, N. Y., Oct. 26.—-Henry
Kinsley, 50 years old, an _Erie engineer,
living at Susquehanna, Pa., was killed
in a peculiar manner while running
passenger train No.12 between Bing-
hampton and Susquehanna early yes-
terday morning.
The distance between the two cities
but twenty—three miles, but the
train, with the hand of the dead on—
gineer still grasping the throttle, made
it in twenty-six minutes.
The fireman, YVaite-r Cowsgill, who
was busy at the fu1;11ace,did not know
of the engineer’s scleath until neax Sus-
quehanna, as the locomotive was of
the “Mother Hubbard" class, with the
fireman‘s cab in the rear. "
When the speed of the train did not
slacken on approaching the station,
Cowsgill became alarmed, and running
over to the engineer‘s cab, shouted over
the boiler to Kinsley. Receivingno re-
ply, he climbed out on the running
board, went around the head of the
engine and reached the engineer’s side,
kicked open the window and entered
the cab. He loosened the stiff fingers
of the engineer from the throttle, re-
versed the machinery and applied the
air brakes, stopping the train before it
had gone many yards past the Susque-
hanna. depot.
Kinsley‘s body was removed, and it.
was found that the entire upper part of
his skull had been carried away.
It is thought that .Kinsley had his
head out of the 11indow and was struck
by a mail crane at some county sta-
tion.

The Policy of the Governmet to Mat.
.. Them Sell-Supporting.
_It is rumored in department head-
quarters that therewjllbe a rattling
of dry bones at some of the older
Western posts in the near future. As
a result of the shake—up, predictions
are that a number of them'will be
stricken from the list of necessary
stations and either sold at auction or
turned over to the Indian service for
agencies.
Five years ago it was thought the
height of folly to think of abandoning
any of the Arizona military posts,
which are in the region infested with
Apaches, but to-day it seems to be the
settled policy of the Government to
make these men self-supporting, and
therefore safe citizens. As rapidly as
the Dawes bill requirements are com-
plied with the Indians are admitted
to the rights of suifrage. These re-
quirements are “the severance of all
tribal relationship and the adoption of
the modes and habits of civilization.”
This will soon cover the whole Apache
tribe, once so bloodthirsty, and it is
not improbable that the next five
months will see the abandonment of
Forts Apache, Grant and Huachuca,
in Arizona, and Wingate and Union,
in New Mexico. The only reason why
the Government keeps troops in these
God-forsaken regions now is because
_of fancied fear of the Indians.
It is also the policy of the Govern-
ment to turn over all abandoned mili
tary posts in the Indian country to the
redmen, to be used as agencies: thus,
ln.Utah, can 'be seen the Onray agency,
once the site of old Fort Roubidoux;
in Montana can be seen the‘Fort Peck
agency, 'once the site of a, military
cantonmen-t of that name, and in Ari.
. zona the‘Fort' Defiance agency flour-
ishes where once stood that sentinel
of the advance of civilization west-
ward, Fort Defiance.
In speaking of the Apaaes recently,
Gen. Sumner said: “It is generally mis-
understood,,'this question of the Apa-
che Indians. They are generally look-
ed upon as being bloodthirsty, fierce
warriors. 0n the contrary, I never
dealt with easier Indians to handle.
They, are making as rapid strides to.
ward civilization as any band in the
United States, and no more need
watching than many of the tribes of
the Indian Territory. The Utes are
'vastly more turbulent and trouble-
Jamaica to the power station, shops
and car barn of the road in South '
' tone,
lyn Heights Railroad left the Man- .
some. ”
From this it can be seen that the
prediction that the above-mentioned
posts will soon be reminiscences has
.good foundation on logic; all of them
are mainly maintained for the purpose
of keeping the Apaches 111 check..—
Denver‘ Times.
Flue Behavior of the Rough Riders.
The prophets of evil of the Tampa
Bay hotel had foretold that the cow-
boys would shoot as they choose, and,
in the field, would act independently
of their oflicers. As it turned out, the
cowboys were the very men who wait-
ed most patiently for the ofificers to
give the word of command. At all
' times the movement was without rest,
breathless and fierce, like a« cane-rush,
’ or a street fight. After the first three-
minutes every man had stripped as
though for a wrestling match, throw—
ing off all his impedimenta but his
cartridge belt and canteen. Even
then the sun handicapped their
strength cruelly.
The enemy were hid in the shade of
the jungle, while theyghad to fight in
the open for every thicket they gained,
crawling through grass that was as
hot as a steam bath: and with their
flesh and clothing torn by thorns and
the sword-like blade of the Spanish
bayonet. The glare of the sun was
full in their eyes and as fierce as 7a
time-light—Richard Harding Davis in

_ Sixteenth Century erncle_
'A sixteenth century traveller visited
a French monastery, where he was
shown what was asserted to be the
skull of John the Baptist. With
some surprise the traveller said:
“Why. the monks. of — monastery
showed me the skull of John the Bap-
tist yesterday.”
. “True,” said the exhibitor, not a
whit disturbed, “but those monks only
possess the skull of the saint when
he was a young man, while ours is
his skull when he was well advanced ' ‘
in age and wisdom."
Proctor's Solemn Wit.
One day, in the Senate, Senator Vest,
of Missouri, in the midst of an impas-
sioned speech recited one of Milton’s
poems in a very tragicmanner.
“The author of that great poem."
said Vest, in an impressive under-
“was John Milton—and it has
been set to music by the great Beeth-
oven."
There was a religious silence all
over the Senate,-wl1en Senator Proc-
t.or whose face had assumed the for-
lorn and forbidding expression of a
professional mourner, arose and re-.
marked in a deep bass voice that was
heard all over the Senate chamber:
“Vest. sing it!"
