Paris, June 1. There was a brilliant assemblage at the military fete at the Opera House last evening. General Boulanger was absent. While the company was assembling thousands of persons gathered in the vicinity of the Opera House, shouting, Resignation, Resignation, Long live Boulanger, We will have him, etc. At eleven p.

m. the crowd outside, greatly increased in numbers, became so turbulent that the Republican Guard, which was held in readiness in the court yard ol the Opera House was ordered out to disperse the mob, which was accomplished amid volleys of hisses from the crowd. All tho streets from Madeline and Fauburg Honoro to the Eiysee are guarded by soldiers; also, large force of police is on duty. It was rumored that the mob were making to the Eiysee palace. The crowd crossed the Place-de la Bourse shouting, Vive Boulanger.

Fifty policemen were stationed at the British embassy. The troops and police prevented rioting. The people were dispersed and the city was reported quiet. During the night cries of A lElysee were raised by the crowd. Fully 1,000 young men formed a procession and marched at a swinging pace in the direction of the palace, shouting as they went, We want Boulanger.

Before they arrived at the Eiysee, however, two strong bodies of police suddenly appeared and easily dispersed them. The palace is strongly guarded by the police and nobody is allowed to loiter in the neighborhood. No arrests have been necessary. General Boulanger, before leaving Paris, had a long conversation with General Ferron, the new War Minister. MOUNT IN ERUPTION.

THE CLAN-NA-GAEL. London, June 1. The Times publishes the third and last of its articles on Par-nellism and Crime, detailing the history of the Irish-American conspiracy.

It says: The Clan-na-Gael is the soul of the National Leaguo. While the latter exists or fine speeches, the former manages the real business. Our narrative shows that Parnell, Sexton and other leaders of the Home Rule party are on intimate terms with the Clan-na-Gael miscreants and that their permission or prohibition of diabolical outrages is a matter of pre-arrangement.

Earthquake in New York. Jamestown, N. June 1. A distinct earthquuko shock was felt in this city at The Canadian Pacific Hauling Wool From California Cheaper Than Home Lines. Tlie Cause Alleged to he Due to (7ov-eiiiiueiit Subsidies Indian Lands.

Difficulties Encountered in Dividing the Lands in Severalty The Tariff Question. -Washington, May 31. Since the suspension of tlie long and short haul clause to the transcontinental roads, the Canadian Pacific has not had every thing its own way in the matter of through freights as it had before. The suspension resulted in a great reduction of the rates on wool from California to the eastern seaboard. One overland line fixed its schedule at from $1.90 to $2.90 per 100 pounds according to variety.

The Pacific mail steamers have marked their rate down to $1.02 and the Canadian Pacific cut under this figure with the rate of $1.50. Since that rate was made the Canadian Pacific is reported to have gone still lower and offers to take wool at $1 per 100. So far the Canadian Pacific has kept below all competitors and has taken large quantities of wool from San Francisco to Boston. The wool is taken from San Francisco by steamer to Victoria where it is put on the cars. On May 13 thirty-eight tons of wool were thus shipped to Boston, and a wreek later the shipments from Stockton over the same route were 180 tons.

The Canadian Pacific is enabled to make lower rates than the American lines because it is subsidized by its Government, and because for many years at least profits on transportations need not be the first consideration of its managers whose aim is now to get business. INDIAN LANDS. Washington, May 31. The Interior Department is proceeding as rapidly as possible in the execution of the law relative to the allotment of lands to Indians in severalty which was enacted by the last Congress. The task is a very tedious and important one, and it is very evident from the information which the Government has already received that the object of the law can only be accomplished by degrees.

The law proceeds upon the fundamental ground that the free consent of each particular tribe or band of Indians must he obtained before the allotment can be made, and the first duty of the Secretary of the Interior has been to ascertain through the agents on the several reservations what the free will of the Indians in this respect is. Answers have been received from, it is believed, all the reservations, and these answers are very diverse in their character. Some of them indicate that it will for the present, under the operations of this law, at least, he an absolutely hopeless task to attempt to break up some of the reservations which are now held under binding treaties with the Indians as nations. On the other hand, favorable reports are received from other reservations, but the drift of all the reports indicates that years may be required to execute this new law in the spirit in which it was framed. administration policy.

Washington, May 31. For some days there has been more or less informal talk in administration circles on the tariff question. From intimations dropped in these quarters, it may be announced that Secretary Fairchild is seriously contemplating a movement, with the approbation of the President and his colleagues, looking to a concentration of the Democrats in the House of Representatives and Senate upon a measure of tariff reduction. After careful inquiry, it has been ascertained that every member of the Cabinet is favorable to such a programme. After the experiences of the past two Congresses, the President is convinced that but one course remains open for tho Democratic party, and that is the formulation of a bill in consultation with such men as Randall and Carlisle and others, representing divers views of Democratic sentiment on the subject, for the purpose of bringing them together upon some common ground of agreement.

The President has seen for some time that the issue will be made on the tariff and urged that it would be more sagacious to got to work at once and prepare a bill to be submitted to Congress as a measure of administration policy than to let the question continue to play havoc as a firebrand in the ranks of the party. It is proposed to make the bill an administration question in the House, and thus bring it before the people, as a distinctive issue upon which the Democratic party will stand in the next campaign. KANSAS CENTRAL RAILROAD. Allegations That the Property Is Being Wrecked by the Union Pacific. Leavenworth, May 31.

London, May 81. Bunbassi Bonsasany, who was with Gonoral Gordon at Khartoum, Is to be tried by court-martial at William Showers Horribly Murders His Two Illegitimate Grandchildren. Terrible Crime of a Bates County Farmer Three Men Lynched in Indiana. Deliberate Shooting in Dayton, 0 Nic Schneider Again Dynamite in the Coke Regions. Reading, June 1.

William Showers, a cigarmaker aged fifty-nine years, was arrested at Annville, Lucerne County, charged with murdering his two grandchildren, William and Samuel, aged respectively three and five years, illegitimate offspring of his deceased daughter. Two weeks ago he drove into the mountains with the children in his -wagon and returned without them. Nothing has been heard of them since, and as he has told many conflicting stories regarding their absence, the district attorney last night ordered his arrest on the charge of taking their lives and he was lodged in jail. Search was made for the children and resulted in finding their bodies buried in Showers yard with ropes around their necks. Showers was engaged to marry Elizabeth Sarge, hut her one condition was that the children should first be got rid of by placing them in charge of some other person.

Showers at first pretended that he knew nothing of the childrens death, saying two strangers had carried them off while he had left them by the roadside to water his horse, when on the way to a neighbors with whom he intended to leave them, but the coroner investigated the case, and the coroners jury rendered a verdict that he had murdered the boys, and he confessed the crime. There is great excitement in the vicinity of Showers home, and threats of lynching are freely made. When found, the bodies of the boys were nude, excepl their night shirts, showing that they had been taken from bed and murdered in cold blood. They had been strangled with the ropes found around their necks and theii skulls had been crushed in with a club. Their bodies were badly decomposed.

A BATES COUNTY BRUTE. Pleasanton, June 1. I. M. Ward, heretofore considered a man of high character by his neighbors, who lived eight miles east of here in Bates County, and operated a coal mine for Hood fc Kincaid, bankers of this place, is accused oi having rumed his handsome seventeen-year-old daughter.

He brutally outraged here when not yet seventeen years of age and threatened to kill her should she expose him, and frequently repeated this dastardly act. The girl, who was a very promising young lady, was well thought of by everyone, and was engaged to be married, hut he threatened her life should she do so. Three weeks ago she gave birth to a child that now lives. After that horrible event ard would let no one come to the house and kept his wife, the girls mother, and several children from going out, being afraid they would cause his arrest. A son fifteen years old escaped about a week ago and came here to tell his uncle, but after he ha started to tell him, stopped, remembering the threats to kill any one that mentioned it.

Friday, while ard was out of the house, a neighbor stepped in, found out what had happened and organized a number of neighbors to mob Ward, but fearing something unusual had happened, the fiend escaped on the west bound Missouri Pacific train, flagging it as it neared his house, and escaped to Kansas. A brother of Mrs. Ward is doing every thing possible to apprehend the villain and should he be caught he will be given short shrift, as ovei fifty men have sworn to deal sharply with him. TRIPLE LYNCHING. Louisville, June 1.

Near Elkerly, a village fifty miles from Louisville on the Air Line railway, last Sunday morning Charles and Clay Davis called at the farm of John Flannigan, and after sending Flan-nigans sons to another part of the farm to drive some cattle out of a field into which they had strayed, took the twelve-year-old daughter of Flannigan tc the woods, and tying her to a tree, outraged her. They then left her gagged and sho was not found until six oclock the next morning. The girl was able to tell the story of the outrage and a dozen neighbors soon found the Davis boys aud hanged both to trees near the scene oi their crime. John Enlow, a cousin of the Davis boys, was hanged alongside them, he being strongly suspected, although there was no positive evidence against him. DELIBERATELY SHOT.

Dayton, June 1. A man named Chubb, a laborer, deliberately stepped up to Fowler Stoddard, of the Stoddard Manufacturing Company, who was conversing with two other citizens last evening, and shot him in the left ear, the ball lodging on the right side of his head. Stoddard had no knowledge of the assassin. The latter ran away, but was soon arrested and claimed that the shooting was accidental Witnesses testify to his dolibeiate firing and flight. At midnight Stoddards mind was unsettled and his surgeon appeared to think his case hopeless.

Stoddard is the younger son of the late eminent lawyer, Henry Stoddard, a relative of the Shermans and the son-iu-law of Colonel.John G. Lowe. NIC SCHNEIDER. Chicago, June 1. Nio Schneider again occupied the witness stand in the boodler trial yesterday, the whole day being devoted to a recounting of the story of his flight, wanderings and capture, and how he was Induced to return to Chicago.

He said that since his capture his bills had been paid by tho detectives, and that he had received money now and then from them. He had been instructed by Attorney Grinnell to toll the exact truth, no matter whom it might hit. He did not know what was said by the attorneys for tho prosecution about his own punishment, but knew he was not to he prosecuted. DYNAMITE. Scottdale, June 1.

Louis Browns, and of the Kansas Mty National League Club, was placed in by the ap eurance of the young girl whom he had ruined and who demanded that he sarry out his promises of marriage, comes mother story concerning Third Baseman Latham, of the same club. The St. Louis Itepubltcan says: -Mrs. "Walter A. Latham, wife of the Browns third baseman, went to the office of Justice Kane a four oclock yesterday afternoon and swore out a warrant against her husband, charging him with assault and battery.

The complainant ivers that May 20 and other days prior to that date, he came home, aud after giving her a very lengthy lecture, beat her zruelly and unmercifully. The treatment May 20, she said, was unusually severe. The plaintiff thought it advisable to take the matter into court. She went to the Four Courts, but was referred to Justice Kane, and the warrant was issued. Con-stablejid Murphy, accompanied by his assistant, Ben Pfoutz, hurried to the Union Depot and found a crowd of base ball cranks gathered around a car all bedecked with banners and flags waiting for the arrival of the champions.

The constable boarded the cars and laid in wait for the missing and badly-wanted Latham. The Browns made their appearance about eight oclock, with the exception of the man wanted. Finally it leaked out that Latham had heard of the affair, and after the game he jumped into a carriage and was taken to East St. Louis. CAUSED A SMILE.

Tho Plea For a Continuance by Counsel In tlie Haddock Murder Case. Sioux City, Iowa, June 1. In the district court yesterday morning the defense in the Haddock case professed to be ready for the trial of John Arensdorf, hut States Attorney Marsh replied that he elected to try Fred Munchrath, and announced that the State was ready. The defense professed readiness, but at the afternoon session mado a motion to continue all tho Haddock cases till the September term on the ground of the alleged prostration of Munchrath by rheumatism. This caused a smile among the spectators in the court room, who have seen him on the streets daily for weeks.

The court finally granted the motion of the defense for a continuance, as it was not strenuously resisted by the State. The jurors are worse, if possible, from the standpoint of the State than those drawn at the present term of court. The Claims Against Spain. Washington, June 1. The dispatch from Madrid relative to the claims which the United States is pressing upon the Spanish Government, refers to no new claims hut to those which have been an issue between the two Governments for many years.

They are for the most part claims growing out of the confiscation of sugar estates which belonged to Americans in the island of Cuba. John W. Foster, when Minister in Spain, had charge of these same cases which are now being pressed. Some of these claims are of a very large amount. The attorney who represents tho largest claims has made two trips from Washington to Spain this year relative to tho matter, and is still in Europe.

The Cuban Government has repeatedly declined to pay them. The claims are the last as to the embargoed states, the rest either having been paid or abandoned. Objectionable Immigrants. Washington, June 1. Correspondence has recently passed between the Secretary of State and the British Minister on the subject of the immigration of Irish crofters whoso transportation expenses, it is currently reported, are met by the English Government.

In answer to inquiries by the British Minister as to whether the Government intends to take any action in the premises, Secretary Bayard states that he can not give a general reply, hut that each case will be considered upon its merits. He intimates, however, that the sending of paupers who are likely to become public charge to this country by the British Government would be regarded as an unfriendly act. Died in the Well.

GREEDY JOCKEY CLUBS. The Coney Island and Hrouklyn Jockey Clubs Syndicate Tho Other Clubs Go to tlie Wall. New York, May 31. Tho Coney Island and Brooklyn Jockey Clubs have made an alliance and parcelled out the dates to suit themselves for the fall meetings and have also taken two days from the spring meeting at Jerome Park, but this will be resented by the American Jockey Club, the pioneer racing association in the metropolitan district, as its members feel that the new and powerful jockey club should have shown it more courtesy. The gentlemen into rested in Jerome Park think that unity oi action may be brought by the jockey clubs, hut that a greedy disposition on tlie part oi the Coney Island associations will not help matters along.
