Pro■i-b nt Carnot's message r.:tn sent to the chamber.'! to-<lay. In It he says he is fully sen sibhuif tlio honor conferred upon him by his election to the presidency and of the great duties entrusted to him. For liiin, upon whom has fallen the honor of uniting tlio suffrages of the different sections, th" first duty is to show that he, himself, is p* i Pirated with a spirit of concord. The ovi.rnment will, therefore, endeavor to fa cilitate harmony by calling upon members of the legislature to work on a common ground for the moral and material interests of the nation. V.'ith appeasement, security and con iidcnce, the government hopes to assure to the country, steady progress ami practical reforms calculated to encourage industry, strengthen the credit and produce a revival of business. I’n paialion- are being made for the great in dustrial exhibition in 1889. The gov ernment is also solicitous to give a largo share of attention to the land and sea forces. It is for t he i h.imbers, continues themessage, to endow the government with power to execute this programme, which will prepare for the coun try a lasting era of peaceable and fruitful ac tivity, and thus give Europe a precious pledge ol the ardent desire of Franco to strengthen the general peace and assist in the devel oping of good relations between the powers. Strong in your support, the government will boa vigilant and resolute guardian of the con stitution and laws of France. Thus respected abroad and calm and prosperous at home, the nation will be able to prepare actively for a fitting celebration of the great coming ccnten nary. WHEAT BRITAIN. London, Decomjier 14.—Mr. Balfour, chief secretary for Ireland, addressed an immense assemblage in Free Trade hall, at Manchester, tonight. In consequence of warnings that a plot had boon formed to assassinate Mr. Bal four, the police guarded the approaches to the platform, and w<re stationed at various points in the interior of the hall. Barricades around the free trade hall were established to town hall, where Mr. Balfour sleeps under guard. The malcontent element was finally sub dued. Mr. Balfour, in an elaborate criticism on the most I ocent speeches in favor of home rule, compared Sir <lcorge|Trcvelyan to Bim yan’s “l‘itiable,” who started with “Chris tian” on the right road, remained a short lime, but falling intojthe Slough of Despond, promptly used violent language toward his former companions, and finally returned totlie city of In struction. Hie radical party in January, 188i>, thought that everythin;* was right which they had thought wrong m De- Ceinber, 1885. They had sullied the character of their party forever. With the deterioration of their moral fibre, the radicals hail adopted the methods of their Irish allies. These, bad hmg been accus fi nrnd to copious streams of violent rhetoric, w hich made them incapable of that sobriety of Statement which the country expected from practiciil statesmen. The utterances, even to the foremost separatist leaders, sTiowed ;u i iu cri.'isieg want of moral perception. Mr. Glad stone had been forced to retract some of the assertions made, by him in his infamous speech at Nottingham, but only under the threat of a lawyer’s letter. Mr. Trevelyan had said that the farmers of Ireland were being evicted by wholesale. The fact was that during the first three months of Trevelyan’s administration as Chief secretary for Ireland, there wore 853 evi ctions, while for the Same period of the speaker’s tenure of office the. evictions numbered only 13..’. After rebutting statements of Dillon and 01 hers on Iho condition of Ireland, ho concluded by predicting the triumph of order under the policy of the government. Dublin, December 13—The duke of Al»or corn presided at a conference of landlords held lit ro today, and made a speech in w hich ho Condemned the absentees. Delegates were ap pointed to submit to the government that the Lind owners of Ireland arc entitled to compen sation for losses sustaincil through action of the. government in reducing rents to a greater extent than was justified by economic causes in depriving land owner? of reversionary* inter est in the occupancy of soil, in lessening sale able and receivable value of judicial rents and in depriving land owners of the right to obtain the best rent a solvent tenant was able to pay in the open market. Tho compulsory reduction of in terest on mortgages, they will insist, is un just and impolitic, as it is impossible to dis tinguish between mortgages and family charges. Bkhlin, December 17. —Emperor William hold today an informal conncil on the military situation. Prince sVillir.ni, General Von Moltke, General Von Scliellcndorff, Count X’on Waldersoc, and General Alberdyll were present. Tho council, which lasted two hours, Is understood to have special bearing on to morrow's military council at Vienna. Dr. Trefort, Hungarian minister of public instruction, speaking at a meeting at I’esth aendeuiy today, reminded his audience that last year, while everybody believed the coun try to bfc on the verge of war, ho doubted that an outbreak would occur. Now, on the con tinry, ho was forced, although an ardent par tisan of pence, to declare his doubt of its be ing maintained. Dr. Trefort declared that the blame tor tho origin of war—if war comes— would be due to the encroachment of Russian pau-slav ism. RUSSIA. St. Pktebsburo, December 15.—Tho offi cial military gazette says that owing to tho alarm raised by tho Austrian press, in conse quence of tlio transfer of some Russian caval ry to tho Warsaw district, it is advisable to < onsider the military position of Russia and her western frontier neighbors In order to throw light upon tho question of whois really pi. paring to attack, and who for defense. During tlio past live years the peace effective of the German army has been increased sixty five battalions and 304 guns, Gorman troops on the Russian frontier have been increased twenty-one battalions of infantry, twenty seven batteries of artillery and fifteen squad rens of cavalry. Since 1878, Germany has built m tho eastern provinces. 4,850 kilometres of railroads. There are elevon German rail loads by moans of which tnxips can bo for warded to the Kussiah frontier and ten junc tion stations where they can bo rapidly thrown out of trains ami concentrated. Austria has added nine to twenty-tbreo in fantry divisions which formerly constituted her eileeth e, and would add, in the event of mobilization of tho army, fourteen landwehr or honved divisions. Tho Galician garrisons have ta'en reinforced during 1887 by eighteen squadons of cavalry and thirteen batteries of attillery, all provided with a full complement of horses. In the Austrian districts, which might become the theater of war with Russia, kilometers et railroads, with four blanches, have been consjructed since 1878. I six Austrian railways art* available for throw l ing into Galicia large bodies Os troops, who, by means of a new junction station, can be placed in position on the Russian frontier. .111 these preparations are meaningless ex cept in view of ouensive tactics ami al|ow that Austria, under the semblance of defense, U, at the same time, preparing to invade Russia siundtaucouslfr with her ally. But, what is Russia doing in view of her neighbor's threat ening preparations? Notwithstanding the manifest danger, Russia Considers that an Eu ropean war would be a terrible misfortune to all mankind. Shawns first, who, amid her neighbor’-; feverish armaments, did not in crease, but decreased her defensive forces. In 1881 and ’B2 Russia reduced her peace ef fective nearly liV.tW True, she raised it again in consequence of the Affgban affair and tl.e necessity of improving her readiness to mobilize, when her neighbors in tho same 1 or >xi have raised their peace effective 75.000.

GERMANY. The crisis in German affairs is a matter of | international concern and speculation. The emperor of Germany was bom March 22. 1797, and is consequently over 90 .years of age. Tho crown prince, Friedrich Wilhelm, is 56 years of age, and if the German doctors are to be believed, he will not live to be 57. This is the pathetic part of the history. The old emperor lias been a great soldier, a king, and an emperor. It cannot be expected that he will live much longer, and when ho dies the German people, will mourn the loss of a common father. But it is intimately more sad to consider the approaching death of the unfortunate crown prince. He possesses to an unusual degree the love of his| people, he has proven himself worthy of that love, and of his high position, and is just now at that age when men are most fitted to assume the cares and responsibilities that would be encumbent upon him as his father’s successor. The crown prince has six children, the eldest being Friedrich Wilhelm, born January 27th, 1859. In tho event —not at all improbable, of the early death of the emperor and of the crown prince—the probabilities are that this young man of not quite 29 years of age would become emperor. It can hardly be said that he enjoys, or merits, the great popularity of his father and grandfather. He is simply a young man, having no decided qualities either good or bad, and disposed to be as retiring as his position will alow him to be. Germans in general, too, are proud of the towering form nml commanding presence that have characterized the Hohenz.ollcms for sev- I oral generations, and which both the emperor and the crown prince are fortunate in possess ing. The oldest son of the crown prince, how ever, is described as being of only medium height, and slightly stoop-shouldered. I* rance lived after Napoleon left it, but she Changed her government and assumed her new name in a baptism of blood. So it is rea sonably certain that Germany will survive tho death of Bismarck. It is equally certain that if Bismarck were to die before tho question of succession is settled, the succession will be in imminent linger of being neither peaceful nor popular. Russia is w’atching Germany closely, and with no good intent. Fiance has been from time immemorial the mortal enemy of Ger many, and is feverishly anxious to follow a second Napoleon to glory and revenge. But Germany’s greatest danger is not from her outside foes. It will be remembered that Germany is merely a confederation—“an eternal union for the protection of the realm and the care of the welfare of the German people.” To quote from the constitution of 1871. “The kaiser rep resents the empire internationally.” Each of these confederate states is more or less free in the management of Its own affairs, and each of those petty kings is more or less powerful and ambitious. Next to Prussia, Bavaria is the most power ful of the German states. The king of Bava ria Is one of the most politic, powerful and | dangerous of these suh-monarclis. He is ut terly unprincipled, and for years has worked steadily toward the crown of Germany. It is more than suspected that he was the eaaso of bis brother’s death, by which he became king of Bavaria. Nor is Otto of Bavaria alone in the nice. German Poland wants freedom. Schleswig-Holstein is in sympathy and tradi tion at least still a part of Denmark, as Alsace- Loraine is French. Now if, by any means. should be come divided, the fail of the empire, or at least its rapid decay from the high position it now holds, is almost certain. Tlio word “crisis” expresses the situation exactly. AL'STIUA. Vienna, December 15.—The article which appeared in the St. Petersburg Military Review today, 011 tins militskvy nxovamauts of.. Ktwuin. and her neighbors, has excited great attention here. Tho government, it is be lieved, before taking active responsive, meas ures of defense, wil l wait to see w hether Russia continues her threatening military prepara tions. The serious character of the situation lias never been underestimated in Austrian official circles. Preparations are complete for the dispatch of reinforcements of cavalry to Galicia in the event of fresh movements of Russian troops. Tho erection of huts is now proceeding actively along the lino of defense. Timber, which lias been lying in readiness since spring is being utilized and accommodations for reinforce ments will soon be provided. Dyspepsia in its worst formswill yield to the use of Carter’s Little Nerve Pills aided by Carter’s Little Liver Pills. They not only relieve present distress but strengthen the stomach and digestive apparatus. A Slight Mistake. Says “The Arizona Howler”: “A dispatch lius just come to us over our special wire from Now York, saying that the French people l ave elected u man mimed Sadie Carrot as president. It looks as if there must be some mistake in the transmission of this name; but as we pay big money for our spe cial nows, wo can't atlbrd to throw it away on ac count of a little mistake iu a name. S_> we shove her in with the single remark that it is better to have a Carrotlfor a president than a dead beat for a son In-law. In this way we again score a live beat on the galloot ‘The Ripsuorter.' Whoopee!

The story is being told at tho clubs how Mr. Endicott invented the rough-backed playing curds, which are just making their appearance.

West Chester, Pa., December 16.—The explosion of an eighty-horse boiler, iu the Ed l.-on electric light company’s works, this after noon, caused Yiie death of five persons and the injuryof three others. About a quarter to four o’clock the fireman had just put on fresh fuel, and had closed the last door, when the boiler, which was one of a series of four, ex ploded. The boiler was lifted from its foun dations and propelled some thirty feet from its location, passing through the base of a newly erected ninety feet high stack, which instantly fell. Superintendent Walter Embree was en gaged with a force of men close to the stack underneath the new boiler, and the whole partv was buried beneath the falling bricks. Rescuing parties were immediately organized and the bodies of Embree and Elwood Beeke, a laborer, were taken out in about an hour. Edward Schofield, a laborer, who was badly scalded by steam from bis waist downward, William Allison, a laborer, and William H. Richardson, foreman, were found still alive, though more or less injured. Hettie, the ten year old daughter of William Jones, who was returning from school ata point distant almost a square from the scene of the explosion, was almost instantly killed by a flying beam. Large pieces of iron were thrown great dis tances and in descending passed through tho roofs of houses and much damage was inflicted on the residence of James C. Phipps, nearly opposite the electric light works, and all property in the vicinity, suffered to some degree. It is though that all the bodies have not yet been recovered, and a large force of men, is tonight, digging over the ruins by lantern light. The streets are enveloped in darkness and great gloom prevails though the borough. The Political Trouble in Indian Territory— The Peace Party. St. Louis, December 13.—Advices front Tal eqnah, Indian territory, say that an ultimatum in the political crisis lias been reached by the people calling on the United States govern ment to settle the matter. They issue an article declaring that a responsible body of men have taken possession of the capitol and execu tive offices, and ask that they at once be dis armed. They demand that the statutes as they existed before the seizure lie fully restored. The nationals will then bo willing to refer to arbitration a settlement of difficulties. Dun ning’s party answer, endorsing the desire for peace, but refused to turn over the government to Bushyhead, disclaiming that the capitol is in tho hands of an armed mob, but under the control of regularly elected officers, who were not regularly sworn in because of the negligence of nationals, and as there was no legally qualified executive it became necessary to save the country from anarchy, for the officers elected to take their seats. The manifesto proclaims that Bushyhead’s term expired November 7th. They accordingly de cline arbitration until it can be more clearly shown that the laws of Hie Cherokee nation are not adequate to determine such a crisis. Agent Owen made a talk to a large mass meet ing of both parties and informed the people that he had a document signed by leading men of each party, pledging peace. Charles F. Jones, Florida's Eate Senator, in a Pitiable Plight. Detroit, Jlicli., Ilecembcr Hi. —T(ic troubles of the brilliant ex-Senator JCharies F. Jones, of Florida, which have been in a lethargic state for a short time, are brought agaiu 'to public attention today by tho announcement that lie has been requested to leave the house of his charitably disposed friend, Detective O’Neil, this week, so that he will soon bo vir tuallyon thetown. Jones was taken toO’Neil’s house to keep him from stopping in hotel cor ridors, and he seemed settled there for life. His continued refusal to do anything to aid himself turned all his friends against him, and the host’s patience ran out. Jones was told ho must leave by Saturday. Thus deprived of sleeping quarters, lie was also informed at the restaurant, where he lias been living that his credit will be exhausted on Saturday night. What he will do he will not indicate, but his friends say they will now starve him to his senses unless some foolish frinds help him out. Both of Senator Jones’s sons have left the city sick of trying to arouse him from his indolent state. Boston Tolls a Full Vote—A Majority for License. Bostcn, Mass., December 13.—The v<}te polled in tho municipal election here today ag gregated 51,487, which is the largest one in a municipal vote since 1883. Os this number O’Brien (democrat), the present incumbent, received 26,621 for mayor; Hart (republican and independent) 24,866, tho labor vote failing to materialize. Tho city has undoubtedly been carried for license, but the total vote cannot be given yet, neither can the standing of tho school board bo accurately stated. The license vote resulted: Yes, 26,577; no, 18,094. Tlio majority for. licensi? last year was 4,437. All of the largo torijjs hi the state, so far as known, voted for license. An Exciting Scene at tho Theater. Washington, December 15.—During (ho performance of “Article 47” by Clara Morris at tho Grand opera house tonight, the play was interrupted by a scene which recalled the fa mous shooting ease in this <?ity some six dr seven years ago. Seated in the midst a large audience was MisS Anni§ Hortdfi, groat granddaughter of John C. Calhoun, wlio is now an employe in the pojtoflice department. Several years ago this jotui'g woman went to the treasury department, Where GtJ&rge Mor gan, son of Senator Morgan, 6f Alabama, was at his desk, and calling the ydung fiflan out iu the street, fired at him repeatedly with n revolver. The shot, ho.wever, inflicted only a slight wound and the ydung clerk refused to prosecute. At the end of tho first act of •* Article 47” tonight, where Miss Morris as the Creole girl Cora, is shot by her lover, Georgd Duhamel, Miss Horton became violently in sane. She had to be taken from the theater by tho police. Their Meetings Secret.
