WARLIKE INCIDENT.
Conflicting Stories as to Whether the
Arrest Was Made on French or Ger
man Territory-The French Govern
ment Awaiting the Result of an In
vestigation Before Acting in the Mat
ter.
Paris, April 33.—The arrest of the
french 'commissary, M. Schnaebeles, of
Pagnv-Sur-Moselle, by German police after
he hail been decoyed over the frontier, is
regarded os a serious matter in official cir
cles. M. Goblet, Prime Minister, anil M.
Flourens, Foreign Minister, wore in con
ference until midnight last night for the
purpose of determining what action to take
i:i the promises, and they again met this
morning to further consider the subject.
j a p a i x says that the government has
demanded an explanation of the arrest from
Germany. French newspapers generally
fijn-ard ("he occurrence as a direct provoca
tion on Germany’s part, and exjiect the peo
ple to be calm and not to play Prince
Bismarck’s game.

The government will not complain to
Germany of the arrest of M. Schnaebeles
until full inquiries have been made into the
' Lu. In transit leant, of which Henry
Rochefort is editor, is the only pajier that is
rabid on its comments on the affair. The
other Paris jiapers are moderate m their
references to it.
Later dispatches confirm the statement
that M. Schnaebeles was arrested on French
territory. M. Flourens will await the result
of a minute inquiry on the spiot before de
manding reparation from Germany for the
arrest. „
The performance of Wagners opera
“Lohengrin.’' which was to liavo taken
place at the Eden Theatre in Paris to-mor

ing that has been aroused by the frontier
occurrence.
FRANCE’S INVESTIGATION.
M. Sarrien, Minister of Justice, has sent
the Procurator General to assist the Proc
urator at Nancy in making an investiga
tion into the arrest of M. Schnaebeles and
to report the faeis in the t-aae. The Prefect
Of Meurtho-Et-Moselle, the department in
which Pagny-Sur-Moselle is situated, has
arrived here for the purpose of conferring
with Premier Goblet in regard to the arrest
of 31. Schnaebeles.
ARRESTED ON FRENCH SOIL.
French paix-rs are unanimous in the state
ment that 3f. Schnaebeles was arrested on
French soil by German officers. The Temps
publishes a dispatch from Strasburg stating
that the German officials suspected 31.
Schnaebeles of having relations with
jx-rsons in Germany for the pur
pose of obtaining information
concerning the military measures being
taken around 3letz for the use of the French
military officials. The authorities of the
Foreign Office believe that the German gov
ernment will make mi explanation of the
affair that will calm the present indignation
felt by Frenchmen. Political and financial
circles taken gloomy view of the situation.
The Gentian Charge d’Affaires has in
formed 31. Flourens that Germany has not
vet definitely ascertained the grounds of M.
feelmaebeles’ arrest, except that it was
effected by virtue of a judicial decree. He,
however, reserves the right to examine the
question in concert witli the French govern
ment.
i The inquiry in the matter has not yet
shown whether lie was arrested on French
or German territory. On being examined
Mr. Sehiiaebeles*sakl that be had protested
against violation of French territory by the
Germans. He declared that lie was una
ware of the cause of his arrest.

There is a tremendous latent excitement
here over the Schnaebeles affair. The gen
era! belief is that Prince Bismarck wants to
create a situation which will render war in
evitnbic. Herr Gautch, the Gorman repre
sentative, lmd often met M. Hehnaebelos
to arrange for keeping the
frontier jiosts in order. Herr Gautch
had invited 31. Schnaebeles to meet him on

REPUBLICANS IN A RIOT.
IMPEACHMENT OF A LIEUTENANT
GOVERNOR THREATENED.
New York’s Senate Chamber tho Scene
of the Rumpus-An Attempt by the
Radicals to Crawl Out of a Corner the
Cause of the Trouble—A Chance to
Explain Not Given.
Albany, N. Y., April 22.—The Senate
this morning witnessed the most oxciting
and disorderly scene of the present session.
During the session it was rumored that Gov.
Hill, in view of Wednesday's discussion over
his withdrawal of the nominations of
Messrs. Armstrong and Buckbee, Labor men,
as Railroad Commissioners, jn-ojjoeed to
withdraw the nominations of Messrs. Rogers
and Baker and send in again tho names of
3l(-ssi-s. Armstrong and Buckbee. Routine
business was almost completed shortly after
12 o’clock, when Mr. Raines (Republican),
of the Canandaigua district, moved to ad
journ until next Monday night.
Senator Murphy (Democrat), of New
York, took tlie floor and declared that the
motion was made for the purpose ol' escaping
from a manage from the Governor.
cornering the republicans.
He was authorized to state that, the Gov
ernor was ready to withdraw the nomina
tions of Messrs. Baker and Rogers and send
in again the names of Messrs. Armstrong
and Buckbee to give tho Republicans a
chance to prove their sincerity and confirm
these nominations. This was the burden of
Mr. Murphy’s remarks, which he reiterated
for the purpose, npjiarontly, of consuming
time.
Air. Comstock (Republican), of tlie Troy
district; briefly denied that tho Governor
entertained any sucli purpose. While he
was talking the Governor’s private secretary
appeared hastily on the scene at the rail.
Mr. Murphy called attention to his ap
pearance as proof of the truth of his asser
tions.
Col. Riee, the Governor’s private secre
tary, with the Sergeaut-at-Anns, then aji
peared before tlie bar and drew a message
from his pocket.
INSISTING ON THE ROLL CALL.
Mr. Raines took the floor and insisted
that the roll call for an adjournment, which
wasjlmlf finished (the Republicans voting in
the affirmative and the Democrats in the
negative),‘.be concluded.
UJJTiie Chair ruled him out of order.
Mr. Raines then proceeded to denounce
the course of the Lieutenant Governor as
arbitrary and revolutionary. At these
words the Lieutenant Governor began
jiounding with his gavel and the whole
chamber was in tumult.
Mr. Raines continued speaking but the
noise of the gavel was so great that his
voice was inaudible five fret away.
The Republican Senators shouted to Mr.
Raines to prons-d and tlie Democrats called
to Lieut. Gov. Jones to stand firm.
Col. Rice stood immovable during the uj>-
roar until Lieut. Gov. Jones sent his clerk
to his side.
THE MESSAGE RECEIVED.
The clerk took the message, the words of
Col. Ric-C; “I have the honor to transmit a
message from tlie Governor,” being clearly
audible above the din. Lieut. Gov. Jones
hold the message in his hand. 3lessrs. Pitts,
Vedder, Raines, Fassett and Hendricks, Re
publican Senators, began spoaking but no
words could be heard.
Reaching the message, to Deputy Clerk
Kenyon, Lieut. Gov. Jones directed him to
read it, but evidently fearing it would bo
seized he retained it, and himself began to
read the message. Hardly a word was
audible, as the Republican Senator* during
nearly the whole proceeding denounced the
act, rose to points of order and raised ob
jections, tlie Democrats meanwhile calling
on the Lieutenant Governor to proceed.
When the reading was concluded the Ro
jmblicans began explaining their votes.
JONES DENOUNCED.
3lr. Vedder, Rep., of the Chautauqua dis
trict, Raid: “I wish to say, anil I speak it in
the name of the free people of the State oi
New York, that I here in my place de
nounce tlie action taken by the presiding
officer of this Senate a* wholly unwarranted,
despotic and arbitrary, and an outrage ujxm
the [jeople of this State and up in the law,
and that it is a disgrace to any legislative
body.”
Tne President—Tho Senator is out of or
der and is not giving his reasons.
Mr. Vedder—l am giving my reasons. It
is the duty of the jieople of' the State of
Now York to prefer articles of imiieach
ment against tho presiding officer of this
Senate and to impeach him.
Mr. Murphy—You will liavo to go to the
assembly for that.
LEFT NO OTHER COURSE.I
Mr. Vedder—Certainly we will; but when
tho, power of the representatives of tlie
people of this State is thus usurped and
their rights denied them in tiiis desjiotie
way, we can do nothing else to maintain
our dignity than that; and tlie jieople will
demand it, and they will accept of nothing
short of that.
Mr. Pitts, of tho Rochester district, and
President of the Senate pro tern., said: “1
et very mu-h what hua taken place in
this chamber this morning. Wo had pro
ceeded to this time with such good feeling.
There had been such an evident desire on
the part of tho Chair to rule fairly and cour
teously, I say, that in the history of legisla
tive liodics no instance can is- found where,
upon calling the roll, a presiding officer ar
bitrarily and without any authority either
of law, parliamentary or otherwise, directed
that call to besuspended, and from hi* place
at the desk read a communication from any
State officer to that body.
• BELONGED TO THE SENATE.
“Tlie communication properly belongs to
the Senate in executive session. This is to
lie regretted. 1 regret it if I said anything
improper to my aws-iab s in tlie heat oi
debate, but I denounce the action of tin
presiding officer as arbitrary and illegal. It
shows that he is entirely unfit and uu
worthy to occupy the place to which he
was elevat 'd by the people. The action
which was suggi stl (impeachment) ought
to be taken. It ought to be a warning to
all men who are called ujxm to preside over
us that they should preserve the semblance
of fairness and courtesy to tlie body over
which they ore called to preside.
MICIIT HAVE BEEN AVOIDED.
“We might have got along with this with
out any feeling wliateveror any contention,
and the executive would have been treated
entirely renpectfully. We can gain no ad
vantage ami desire to gain none. I remeni
ber once when the Democrats had a major
ity iu tho assembly and Gov. Fenton sent,
in a message, they would not jiermit it to
lie read end lain it upon the table inline
dintely, ami they were strictly within par
liamentary rules.”
Other rnamj*'!-* sjtoke in th* matter. Be
fore announcing tlio result on th-- motion to
adjourn Lieut. (4ov. Jones started to make
un explanation, when Mr. Pitts objected.
DENIED A lUOIIT TO EXPLAIN.
Lieut, Gov. Jones began twice to njx-ak,
but the Republican Senator* began leaving
the room. Mr. Jones lieggi-d th-- --om-frey
of the Senate to hear him in cxjilauatiou,
Imt no attention was paid to his request,

CONTENTS OF THE MESSAGE.
The Governor's message, which created
all the trouble, whs a mild protest to the
Senate against “hanging up” his nomina
tions for various offices instead of acting
upon them one way or another. The Gov
ernor closes his message as follows: “I
Reek by this communication to inform the
Senate that I respectfully decline to be
placed in tiny false position on one hand
to the Senate or any injustice or discourtesy
on tin* other. If the Senate actually de
sires further time to consider the nominations
of Messrs. Armstrong and Bucklieo, or is
now desirous of confirming them, i am anxi
ous to oblige your honorable body.
"If by resolution, or in some other proper
formal milliner, the Senate shall communi
cate its desire or willingness to consider
those nominations or to eonilnn them, 1 an
nounce to the Senate that I will cheerfully
withdraw the present nominations and trans
mit the nominations of Messrs. Armstrong
and Buck bee for its favorablo action. T
await the pleasure of the Senate 'in this
matter.”
NOT TO TAKE A SECOND TERM.
President Cleveland Said to Have De
clared Himself.
St. Loris, April 22.—A special from
Washington to the Republican gives the fol
lowing rather startling information: “Presi
dent Cleveland neither wishes nor will ac
cept, a renomination.”
This will tie startling information to the
country,setting at rest the important question
of a second ter in,now the subject of interested
consideration in political circles every
where. The correspondent of the Republican
has tho highest possible authority for the
statement, however, and it can bo depended
upon ns strictly and entirely true. It comes
from the President himself, who made a
declaration to this effect, on Wednesday to a
prominent Democratic Senator from oue of
the Western States, who is on terms of es
pecial intimacy at the White House. The
President spoke with so much
deliberate earnestness and such stud
ied emphasis that tho Senator
with whom he was talking is certain there
is no reason to question his iiorfect and en
tire sincerity. Ilis manner, not less than
bis words, indicated that the declaration
was simply the decision of a firm resolution
which had resulted from careful considera
tion of all the phases of the matter. The
President said he had not given any intima
tion of his feelings to the representatives
of tho press for the simple reason that he
felt that nothing he might, say about not
wishing or being willing to take a second
term could lie believed. *1 hardly expect
anybody to believe it,’ he said,‘except my
wife, but it is so nonetheless.’ Continuing,
he added: ‘Everything I do, every
appointment I make, thev think it
is to secure re-election. On the contrary,
I am counting tho days that remain until
my release front office just as if 1 were a
prisoner in confinement.”
REMOVAL OF THE APACHES.
Mouni Vernon Selected Because It
Offers More Room.
Washington, April 22. —The Apache In
dians who were moved from Arizona to
Fort Marion, Fla., last fall aro to be
removed, l>y direction of the Secretary of
War, to Mount Vernon barracks, Ala.
They numiier about 450, in addition to Geron
imo and seventeen bucks who are confined
at Fort Pickens. Tho wives of the latter
will not tie removed from Fort Marion to
Mount Vernon but will lie permitted to join
their husbands at Fort Pickens. Capt.
Pratt, Superintendent of the Carlisle Indian
School, has gone to Fort Marion to select
thirty or forty young Indians before re
moval ti i lie inst ructsd at his institution. The
removal is made on account of tho crowded
condition of the quarters at Fort Marion,
and although the health of the Indians has
been good, it was thought advisable to send
them to a healthier location, where they
will have plenty of room ami lie free from
the gaze of hundreds of curious people who
flock about them every time they appear in
public.
Mount Vernon is considered as peculiarly
well adapted to their needs, lining situated in
the southwestern part of Alabama, on the
Mobile river, not far distant from Mobile,
and consisting of a tract of 200 acres. The
barracks there is occupied by two companies
of artillery. The Indians will live in tents
and it is hoped that they may lie taught to
become self-supporting. Gerouimo and
his renegades are not kept in solitary con
finement at Fort Pickens, but are required
to work under guard,
