Ano'tfher dispatch, serit shortly after midnight : and received early this morning, s'fca't ed that -a few people gathered in the public park 'about 10 o'clock last night. There was no demonstration and un der ordinary circumstances no atten- j tlon would have been given to it, as ; the park is 'the central public point of Havana. 'As a matter of precaution, however, the patrol of soldiers on duty' asked the people to move away and -this thev did without demonstration or the exercise of any force. By 12 o'clock the troops were 'back in their quarters. !No surprise Would "be felt, if there were sporadic 'gatherings of groups in a city of 'Havana's size, par ticularly 'Sunday when the streets are usually filled with these otherwise en gaged during this week. This cu s'tom--a ry outpouring of the people doubt less will occur tomorrow and it may serve as an incentive for the congre gating of groups, 'but it is aid that irhla should not 'be misconstrued into 'a popular demonstration and no un easiness whatever is felt that it will the occasion of 'anything more thai a lew vi'vas even if that much occurs. Senator Govin, 'a member of the au tonomous cabinet, arrives ait 'Havana today and this, also it is said, may serve as a text Tor some vivas 'by the "Ultras. Govin ha)3 been alt 'Atlanta, Ga., since the, autonomous cabinet Was 'formed. He lis regarded as the 'strong est man of that 'body and for that reason his 'appointment has excited in tense hostility aJmon'g the Insurgents and their friends. It led to a movement to insult him personally as he passed through Tampa, according to informa tion submitted to the Spanish minister. This led 'Senor Govin to change his route, making a seia trip toy way otf New York. He sailed from there last Saturday. In View of the movement against him at Tampa, it Would be no surprise to the legation here if the same ultra element at Havana tcoic his arrival as an opportunity for a similar expression against him. During the afternoon the minister Was in receipt of advices from Sagas'to tshowin'g that up to 2 o'clock the city- of Havana had been absolutely calm. The new minister of the interior, Sen'or Govin, had arrived and had a respect ful reception. Havana, January 15. "A dispatch re ceived from 'Spanish sources in Pinar del 'Rio, says that the insurgent brig ades general, Ferlco Delgado, has been killed 'by Ihi's followers and that -his chief of staff, Luis Dopez Marin, has surrendered to the Spanish authorities. Senor 'Antonio Govin, the 'Cu'ban law yer who has Ibeen appointed minister of the interior in the autonomous cab inet, arrived here today. The members of the central committee and a. mrm ber of his friends went out on three tugs to meet him, received him on his arrival and welcomed him back to Ha vana. Senor Govin afterward called upon the president of the Cuban cabi net, Senor GaTvez, and took the oath of office. Captain General Blanco has issued a circular ordering that each battallion of infantry be strengthened "by 125 men, to be recruited in their respective Tocalitieis by 'the (generals of division. These recruits will be obliged to serve six mon'ths, and will receive the same pay as the regular soldiers. The Cir cular also orders that the local gueril las are to double their number under the same conditions until organized. A dispatch from San Juan de Lias Yeiras, province of Santa Clara, an nounces that 'the insurgent leader, 'Loelle Cepero, a naturalized (American - citizen, has surrendered to the Spanish authorities. The Strength of the Antl-Clvll Service iMovement Washington, January 15. The can vas of republican members of the house of representatives ton the question of changing, the civil service law, whfch (has "been conducted 'by the Republican "'stering cCmmittee" is abeut complet ed. Of. the 202 republican members of the house the canvass is said to show that a majority varying from eighteen to forty 1-s favorable to a change in the flaw, according to the degree of change proposed. This last factor leads to some difference of opinion as to the re sult' of the canvass. Representative Pearson, of iNorth Carolina, a member of the committee, places the number of republican who can be pepended on at 115. Mr. Evans, of Kentucky, an'other member of the committee, places the number at 135. Roth estimates are based on canvass, the difference being due to the attitude of certain doubt ful members. As a whole, the result gives satisfaction to those who have made the canvass. They say that in a number of cases entire state delega tions are shown ' by the canvass to favor a change in the law. This is the case in, the state delegations of North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virginia and iNew Hampshire. Beyond completing the canvass, the opposition to the civil service law is taking no active steps for the present, the pur pose being to wait -until the regular civil 'service committee of the house takes action on the bill before it pro poses modification of the law. MONEY FOR NORMAL SCHOOLS The Iat Installments for the Colored Schools The 'tw Republican Paper Otho Wilson Did Not Get His Gnano rree (Special to the Messenger.) 'Raleigh, 'N. C, January 15. The state superintendent of public instruc tion sends to each of the seven negro normal schools $1,857, completing this year's allowance. It Is found by the state labor com missioner that eleven counties in North Carolina have no railway. The total railway mileage is 3,726, or one mile to every fourteen square miles of state area. iNext "Wednesday stockholders of the republican newspaper hre met to or ganize. Otho Wilson says J. R. Chamberlain of the Caraleigh phosphate works, tells ftim today that he never told Governor 'Russell 'that fertilizer for Otho Wilson was shipped free to Round Kn!ob, Otho Wilson says he wants to know if this is a sample of the Star Chamber busi ness upon which he was suspended by the governor as railway commissioner. 'Among the arrivals today are D. J. Duncan, E. C. Duncan Beaufort; T. M. Emerson, Wilmington. A YOUTHFUL MURDERER A Fifteen Year lOld Boy Murders a Boy of Fire Years and Throws the Body Into a Creek. Philadelphia, January 15. A case was reported to the Central police headquarters late today which bears every indication of subsequent devel opments, showing that a 5-year-old has been murdered by a youth of 15 years. Percy Lockyar, aged 5 years, ho resides at 6130 Hazel avenue, in '.he outskirts of West Philadelphia, did not reurn home last evening and vigilant search failed to disclose his whereabouts. The distressed parents notified the police of one of the West Philadelphia districts and a thorough, but unsuccessful, search of a strip of woods near the little fellow's home was made. Today it was learned that Samuel Henderson, aged 15 years, whose home is near that of the Lock yar family, had been seen in the woods with Percy. He at first denied hav ing seen the child, but, on being close ly questioned by the police, admitted having been with him in the woods. He told several conflicting stories re garding Percy's disappearance, at first declaring that the little boy had left him to go to his home. Then he said that while he was whittling a stick with a large knife Percy had ac cidentally fallen against the blade which entered deeply into his breast. Henderson stated the blood spurted from the wound and the child fell dead. Fearing he would be arrrested, Henderson said he threw the body into a creek which flows through the woods. In confirmation of this story he led the searchers to where the boy's hat and coat had been hidden. They were identified by Percy's par ents. He also pointed out the place in the creek where he had thrown the body. The creek was dragged for quite a distance, but the body was not found. The police believe the story of the child's death and are of opinion that the killing was the deliberate act of Henderson. They think that .the body has been carried down the stream which was unusually high last night in consequence of a heavy rain fall. Henderson is. in custody and the search is being prosecuted tonight by twenty five policemen. A Steamer's Rough Passage Halifax, N. . S., January 15 The steamer Ursula Bright, Captain Whit son, twenty three days from Havre, bound to Hampton Roads, put in here today short of coal and will proceed tomorrow morning. Captain Whitson reports having encountered a succes sion of terriffic westerly gales and hurricanes on the passage. The ship was also short handed, thirteen cf the crew having refused duty. These men asked for their discharge at Havre on December 20th, but as the articles stated that their time was not up until December 31st, the captain refused their request, and they then decided they would not turn in. Captain Whitson tried every means possible get them to go to work, but they would not, so as a last resort he put them on bread and water. Their articles of agreement show tnat they shipped at Sunderland in July for St. John, N. B., the agreement not to extend beyond the 31st of December, 1897, or the ves sel's first subsequent return to her port of destination in the United Kingdom. The steamer left Havre on December 22nd, so their time expired in mid-ocean. The captain and 6TS cers had a most trying time, working the ship through the many storms. The men claim they have a good case and will likely settle the matter in the courts on her arrival at Hampton Rot.ds. Only the Best" Should be our motto when you need a medicine.

THE UNSTABLE FRENCH THE REPUBLIC IN DAKGER FROM PUBLIC EXCITEMENT The People Greatly Wrought up Over the Dreyfus and Ester haze y Cases Increased 'Danger f f Hostilities Between England and France Over the Soudan Question Scandalous Immorality In West End of London 1 he Persian Shah's Throne Totterlog. (Copyrighted by he Associated Press.) London, January 15, The new phase into which the Dreyfus case has entered, is a distinct advance. The era of secret dourts-martial is over and a civil and public court will have to Investigate Emile Zola's charges of persistent distortion of justice. The behavior of military authorities in "burking" the inquiry cast the gravest reflects upon the oft-asserted honor of the French army, which has shown an obstinate determination to stick to gether, right or wrong. Outside of France, all Europe believes Dreyfus is the victim of a villainous conspiracy and the prosecution of Zola has broad ened the question; for the whole French army is now virtually placed on trial. The gravity of the situa tion is enhanced because the whole of France is in a state of growing hys terical excitement. Temporarily, the republic is generally supported throughout the country, but history shows that similar hysteria has fre quently led to violent chances. When France is able to analyze the situa tion and should the suspicion spread that the honor of the army is really affected, the consequences to the re public might be of the most serious description. The Panama scandals have defiled political life and the law courts have been discredited; there fore if respect for the army must also be surrendered the desire to change the government may be irrepressible, in which case the temptation for the leaders to divert the attention of the country to a foreign war will be well nigh irresistable. Hence the deep in terest of France's neighbors. For the moment, the intense excite ment will probably find an outlet in the renewal of the spectacle presented during the liveliest days of Boulangism Hot altercations in the streets leading to assaults are frequent, the police are guarding houses of prominent Drey fusians, and it is impossible to fore see where the arrests will end Slan der and denunciation are so rampant that the authorities are taking special precautions to prevent the calumniated taking the law into their own hands. Duels have already resulted. A monster manifestation is preparing in Paris for Sunday. Temporarily overshadowed, the movements of the French on the up per Nile are again becoming unpleas antly prominent to those who imagin ed that Great Britain had undisputed claims upon those regions. m It is im material to discuss the exact where abouts of the French expeditions. It suffices that, according to tne bulk of evidence, they have penetrated to Bahrh-El-Ghazal, the most fertile pro vince of the Egyptian Soudan, with the distinct mandate of their govern ment. If this is true, and the declara tions of successive British cabinets mean anything, M. Hanotaux, the French minister for foreign affairs, has brought about a casus belli. Thus far, M. Hanotaux seems to have the advantage, but the game is dangerous. Fear of war with France will not stop Great Britain from recovering the whole of the Egyptian Soudan and driving out any French expeditions which may be found there when, in the opinion of the Marquis of Salisbury the proper time has arrived. In the meantime Prince Henry of Orleans is fitting out at Marseilles and evidently with the approval of the government, an armed expedition to subdue equatorial provinces, claiming they had belonged to Abyssinia in pre-historic times; but in reality, these provinces are identical with those Great Britain is seeking to re store to Egypt. So, perhaps, there is some truth in the story that the ac tivity of the British is due to the Egyptian intelligence department learning that the French Abyssinian troops have reached Fashbda; that King Menelik is preparing reinforce ments with the intention of following up this success and that a common policy, which is morally supported by Russia, unites France and Abyssinia. There are persistent reports of grave troubles threatening Persia. The Shah's sovereignty has always -been shaky, and it is now affirmed to be rapidly slipping from hi3 grasp. In deed the situation at Teheran is de scribed as being so precarious that a coup d'etat may be precipitated at any moment. The scandalous debauchery in. Re gent street and Piccadilly, this city, has led to the preparation of two bills for presentment to - parliament. One of them makes it a crime for a man1 or a woman to live on the prosti tution of women. In the case of for eigners, the bill provides for the repatriation of the guilty parties. The other bill provides punishment for so liciting. Those responsible for these two bills point to the condition of the "West End" of London as being unbearable. (The foreign "bullies" living on wo men's prostitution are responsible for hundreds of recent cases of assault robbery, blackmailing and unspeaka ble abominations. An eminent person who was lunch ing recently with Mr. Gladstone, asked him what was the greatest danger threatening Great Britain was it France, Germany, Russia or America? "None of them," was the reply of the great English statesman; "the only danger I foresee is from the trades unions and their attendant strikes." The health of ex- Empress Eugene is disquieting. Her rheumatism grows worse and she is unable to cross a room unassisted. However, It is hoped her stay on the Riviera will re cruit her health. The death of "Lewis Carroll," (The Rev. C. H.Dodgson), author of "Alice in Wonderland, has caused the great est regret in all parts of Great Britain. The papers are full of reminiscence of his ministries. "Lewis Carroll," was very particular as to his personal ap pearance. His alert figure and gen eral vigor conveyed tne impression that he was much younger than 65 years. He never wore an overcoat in his life and continued to take long "constitutionals" to the end. HOUSE CP REPRESENTATIVES. Tiie Session Consumed In a Desultory De bate on the Army Appropriation Bill and Eulogies on the Late Representa tive Mllliken, of Maine Washington, January 15. The ses- sionsion of the house today, after 2 o'clock, was devoted to eulogies on the life and public services of the late Rep resentative Seth W. Milliken, of Maine. Immediately after the reading of the journal Representative Star, populist of -Nebraska, rose to a question of privilege to deny a publication in a local paper stating that he had acted as attorney in the pension case of Jackson W. Cheney. . . r On motion of Mr. Lanham, democrat, of Texas, a bill was passed authoriz ing the president to appoint an ad ditional district judge, for the North eastern district of Texas. The house then went into committee of the whole and took up the conside ration of the army appropriation bill. The bill, Chairman Hull, of the mili tary committe, explained, carried $23, 185,990, $1,039,751 less than the esti matesj.and $56,746 in excess of the law for the current year. The increase in the pay of the army was due to the fact that the army was- nearer its maximum strength than heretoforeA new provision in. the bill required the payment of troops by the paymaster in person. The general debate on the bill was desultory and was not confined to the subject matter dealt with by the bill. Mr. Henry, democrat of Texas, took occasion to denounce Secretary Gage's funding scheme. Mr. Terry, democrat of Arkansas, made some remark about the protective tariff and Mr. Gaines, democrat, of Tennessee, some on the claim of the Publishing House of the Methodist Episcopal church south. At 3:25 o'clock p. m., the house ad journed. Suits Against Newspapers New York, January 15. Judge La Combe, in the United States circuit court for the Eastern district of New York, has handed down a decision granting the'motions made on January 7th to set aside service in the cases of William S. Brewer and the Union As sociated Press against the following newspapers: Louisville Press Com pany, Journal Newspaper Company, of Indianapolis; Evening News Associa tion, of Detroit, Mich.,; Commercial Tribune Company, of Cincinnati, and the Inter-Ocean Publishing Company, of Chicago. These actions were originally begun in the New York supreme court in Queens county, but were thereafter re moved by the defendants into the United States court for. the Eastern district of New York, and the mo tions to dismiss were made before Hon. Judge Tenny. On account of his death, the motions were transferred into the Southern district and were argued before Judge Lacombe. This decision practically reverses the decision made in the case of Fon tana against the Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph and tne decisions made by Judge Tenny in the cases of Brewer and the Union Associated Press against George Knapp & Co., in 82nd Federal reports, page 694. This , de cision will force the plaintiffs to an appeal to settle this jurisdiction ques tion. Gray Gables Burglarized Boston, January 15. A special to The Globe from Buzzards Bay says: Graygabtes. the summer home of ex President Cleveland, Hias been visited by burglars, who ransacked the house from attic to cellar and made good their escape without leaving the slight est clue to tfheir identity. 'When the burglarly occurred is quite as much of a mystery as is the Identity "of those wiho were 'concerned in it. Brad Wright, yao has charge of the Cleve land estate, made the 'discovery sev eral days ago and he immediately re ported the facts to the town officials and notified T&r. Cleveland.

RElrOniilCANR BATHE TTILL NO SERVE OUT HIS TERM. That Us Sees He Is a Failure as a Gov ernor Another Kimor of Judge Dick. Resignation Robert Hancock to b Ousted as Railroad President Mor Mormons Arrive Heavy Redaction in Passe orer Rates by the Commission Pre dieted. Messenger Bureau, Raleigh, N. C, January 15. It is said by some prominent repub licans that they do not believe Gov ernor Russell will serve his full term; that he sees his administration is a failure; that he has no following and is literally proving an "old man of the sea" to his party. Rev. Dr. Pettinger, the rector, says, it is the hope to begin work the com ing spring on the new Church of the Good Shepherd here. The news that Judge Dick will resign is received with incredulity. His son-in-law, Judge Douglass, Is confident of getting his place, whenever he docs step off the bench. Robert Hancock of New Bern said yesterday before leaving here that he had not seen the governor during his visit. Today a paper says he did see the governor and that the latter had given him some plain talk. At the executive office today there was a re fusal to answer the question whether Hancock had seen the governor or not. It is the belief here that Han i cock will quickly lose his place as president of the Atlantic and North Carolina railway. This Is said by people of all parties. Feeling against him -is high. He persists in declaring his absolute innocence of any and all charges. Letters received here are highly derogatory to him, and one says he has "darkened several homes." Six more Mormons have arrived- to do work in this state, bringing the number up to fifty. The engineer who will look for the route for the lumber oailway between Raleigh and Lillington will be here next week to begin the survey. The anti-Spanish feeling here is now intenser than ever. The ex-confederates are declaring that a fleet ought to go to Havana and end mat ters once for all. This is the prevail ing sentiment in the state. There are excellent reasons for say ing that after the meeting of the rail way commission week after next a large reduction in passenger rates will be ordered. It has been in view since the new commission came in office. It is the wish of Senator Butler and, of course, also of Governor Russell. A telephone line between Raleigh and Chapel Hill will be constructed. The state university dramatic club entertained a very large audience here last evening with "London Assurance'" and then attended the "charity ball." Governor Russell requisitions on the governor of Maryland for E. M. Wom bfe, a watch thief. John C. Davis, the Wilmington em bezzler, lately released from the in sane asylum, is .at work in a cotton mill here. Hyacinths are in full bloom here, and today there is again spring weather. The Bank of Pitt County, it is offi cially announced will go out of busi ness. At the next meeting of the railway commission the question of who can and who cannot have free passes will be specially taken up. Adjutant General A. D. Cowles re signs as receiver of the Piedmont bank, at Morganton. It is said L. A. Bristol will succeed him. S. P. Satterfield, who was convicted in the superior court her of criminal negligence as regards the assignment act, but who was acquitted by the su preme court, is here and wants to be chief clerk to Revenue Collector Dun can. A swarm of other seekers after places in the revenue service Is here. They all have a fine contempt for civil service. James A. Cheek told me to day that all the deputy revenue collec tors in the field would resign as soon as Duncan comes in. At the revenue office it was learned that this was ab solutely incorrect. Rev. L. G. Broughton arrived here today. He will be in the state about a month, taking a rest before going to Atlanta. Nomination of Federal Senators by Pri maries Richmond, Va., January 15. In the state senate today there was nothing of importance. In tue house the whipping-post bill, and the Stubbs special levy pension bills were recommitted. Mr. Reddy, of Richmond. Introduced a bill, "to give tne people an oppor tunity to express their choice for United States senators by balloting at certain elections for members of the state legislature." The bill is one of the most interesting offered at this session, and will attract widespread attention, as the subject of nominat ing senators by popular vote has been widely discussed since the Roanoke convention. It means the nomination of United States senator by primaries.

GERMANY AND lift SSI A On Most Friendly Terms Regarding M. fairs In the "Far t:si' Changed Rets tions llctwevn China ami (iirm Decrease In Kxport of German Sugar te America Berlin, January 15. Twice durton: the past week Emperor William callwl. unannounced, at the Russian embasF and had long conversations with th? Russian ambassador. It is learned era good authority that the conversations were solely on the far eastern ques tions. The emperor is uncertain aa to Japan's future Bteps in regard to China and Corca, and the Russian ambassa dor, on the strength of recent Sc. Petersburg information, was able to enlighten his majesty fully on the subject. The entente with Russia continue undisturbed. The czar, in a lengthy personal letter, explained to Emperor William, shortly after the seizure aC Port Arthur, Russia's intentions ancl plans regarding Manchuria and nortli China. The correspondent of The Associ ated Press learns that the whole or trans-Caucasia, including the big pro vince of Turkestan, will shortly 12 placed under control of a governor general, probably a Russian grand duke, who will have practically un limited military administrative power It is believed that by such a mcasnm the welfare of the population, 25,000. 000 souls, inhabiting a territory sepa rated from the central government hy thousands of miles, can better be as sured. The changed relations bctweer China and Germary are strikingly shown in the fact that the new Chi-, nese ambassador, who has just arrir ed, is accredited to Berlin only and not to several courts, as heretofore, and his corps of secretaries and attach r has been increased from six to thirty. The ambassador is delighted wltli his reception by Baron von Uuclow. . the minister for foreign affairs, which confirmed the statement that th re lations between China and Germany are excellent, notwithstanding thx- seizure of Kiao Chou bay. The colonial office is preparing a . civil administration for Kiao Chou. Owing to the slow recovery cf the? empress, whose physician has forbid den all exertion, the programme of tfsts season's court festivities has not been drawn up. The export of sugar to the Unltcvl States has suffered enormously throurfj the Dingley tariff. In fact, it baa al most stopped. During the last quar ter of 1897 only 127,000 worth of sugr was shipped from Hamburg, the prin cipal sugar port of Germany. The Agrarians has started a cam paign against American wines. A higher duty on American wines is de manded on the ground that theses wines, especially those from Califor nia, are directly competing with Gcr man wines in the latter's market.
