PAKIS , April 2.1. | Now York Herald
Cablo-Speslal to the IJKK.J Bright spring
weather has coma out , the trees are already
fringed with palo green fo'llage , the Parisians
have shed their overcoats , and open air con
certs In the Champs Elysees are now In full
swing. Even the grave astronomers of the
International congress have paused In their
labors , and at the soirees given by Admiral
Monchez and M , Flourens , the minister of
foreign nil airs , have admired the acting of
Mine. B.irlel , Plcrson and Itclchcmberx at
the Conicdio Francalsc and other stars of the
kind not usually observed through tliulr telo-
ccopcs.
A WAIII.IKI : rnovocATiox.
Although Do llouludc , the noisy , storm ;
petrel of the league patriots , lias ictlred be
cause nobody paid any attention to his wild
ravings , the political horizon lias again be
come darkened by warlike Incidents on the
frontier. The ambush laid tor thu French
commissary of police , M. Schnaebele , his
being placed In handcuffs and carried to
Jhletz by the German authorities , Is felt here
to bo a new warlike provocation on tlio part
of Germany. But the fooling throughout
Franco is that It Is beneath the dignity of
Franco to take sciious notice of It.
WHAT T11K IMIKSS SAYS.
The Hepubliquo Francalso says : "We
shall pay no attention to the incident unless
the German government assumes the respon
siblilty. "
The Figaro says : "In worrying the relchpi
stag into voting 13)0,000,000 ) francs for the military
'
itary budget , 40,000,000 franks of which are
fora now strategic railway , a ban petit Inci
dent on the frontier Is ono of tlm rtincellor' *
favorlte tricks to obtain what ho wants from
the roIclisUig. The Incident at Novcaut
means this , nothing more , and France should
Answer It In the same man tier as wo replied
to the provocation last February by absolute
Bllcnce. "
The Gallos says : "Either Bismarck desires
peace or hu seeks to provoke war. If ho
wishes pcaco tlio Noveiut Incident was
certainly not arranged by him ,
In which rase It can bo explained
on the ground of excess 'of znal of a minor
German official , and may bo considered as it
It never occurred. If. on the other hand ,
lilsmarck seeks to provoke war , lie would
never stoop to such a trivial Incident , that
smells too much of the policeman. Bismarck
would seek a pretext- based upon some
solid national grounds , hence the trivial
squabble between policemen will bo ex
plained away and surely not lead to ivar. "
Mc.in while French rentes have gone down
two francs , which represents a shrinkage ot
values exceeding $100,030,000 , and the bourse
Is again frantic with feverish speculation.
But opinion throughout Franco Is not to
allow mich a trivial Incident to become the
causa of war.

of slight braiding on the sleeves and side

A more showy jacket Is braided all over In

ferences , of slender Interest to the outer
world , ha\e chleily occupied Vienna tills
week. Bulgaria stands where it did. Kaul-
bars has left , but Storloff lias not yet de
parted. Kalnocky Is dUapnolnted at the
non-decoration of Do Glersby Emperor Alex
ander , and Austria's attitude toward Russia
is somewhat cooler than before Easter. Tlio
politicians are breaking their heads In the
endeavor to understand the true Inwardness
of the Do Glcrs'puzzle , and there Is appre
hension of war In the Balkans this spring.
But an official who stands very near Count
Kalnocky said to me to-day : "Mark my

IIUMOIIKD NIHILISTIC PLOT.
Rumors , which are so far unconfirmed , are
afloat that the alleged abandonment of thu
czar and czarina's journny to the Crimea was
caused by a fresh discovery ot n nihilist
plot to blow up the Imperial train. To make
assuiance doubly sure , it Is even said that the
conspirators had arranged to blow up the
Odessa station ut the time of the Imperial
couple's arrival.
IIIKY SVMI'ATIIIZr WITH FKANCH.
The incident on the Franco-German fron
tier overshadows all other political topics
here. What some call the gro < s and appar
ently deliberate brutality of the German
officials , Is commented on with hardly con
cealed disgust. The press are practically
unanimous In condemning Schnaebelcs'
arrest as a violation of international law ,
if the facts are correct. Several Independent
organizations have allowed it to bo clearly
inferred that 'they fear the Incident was
planned with a direct Hvlsh to provoke
Franco. The facts are naturally connected
by the alarmists with the slnster passages of
Bismarck's last speech. The alfalr quite
overshadows homo politics for the moment ,
and though It is not thought prudent to give
full vent to the feeling In print , It Is plain
from the general drift of pi ess comments that
Austrian sympathy so far.ls all witli Franco.
As several papers point out , it matters little
whether SchnaeDclris1 arrest was strictly
legal or illegal , Tlio chlof points to consider
are how the arrest WAS affected , and what
impression It will inako on the already
much-tried patience of tlm Fiench nation.
On the whole , less pessimistic views prevail
to-night , despite tlio alaimlng reports of
Count Waldnrseo's journey to the frontier.
J.KFT UNPKlt A CLOUD.
The mysterious-disappearance of a charge
d' Affaire of a minor European government
from Vienna , is to-night being very freely
strangely commented on In the clubs and
cafes of the Imperial city. It appears that
the diplomat In question was very 1'ond of
baccarat and had lately lost what , for him ,
was a large sum 'iO.OoO or GO.OOO florins ,
which ho could not pay. Moreover ho had
run up bllh. with number of confuting
tradesmen , and for a long time past had
omitted to settle accounts with his washer
woman. Over a week ago , finding the situa
tion untenable , lie left Vienna without the
beat of a drum and sliows no Inclination to
roturn. Meanwhile the diplomatic affairs of
his country are entirely In the hands of the
legation servants. At all events , no one else
atteuds to them.
VOI.Al'lTKITIIS CELKUIIATH.
Over 200 Vienna Volapukltes had n ban
quet the other night , to celebrate the steady
progress of the mucln'.erHlOil universal lan
guage. Enthusiastic speeches were made In
Yoinpuko and Germany , and wine flowed
freoly. Towards thu end ot the feast Volap-

The Itcsult of Schnnclictc'n Arrest
Awultcd With Curiosity.
/JOT lu Jam's Oonfon Dennett. ]
April 23. [ New York Herald
Cable Special to the BEII.J The ancst on
the French fiontler Is regarded now rather
from a point of curiosity as to why It oc
curred and how the German government can
get out of the scrape , than as a matter of In
tel est or a cause of anxiety. I have to-day
seen a number of prominent persons whoso
judgment on current events I found reliable
at other times. With a single exception all
weru unanimous that the fiontler blunder
was unlikely to causa the slightest complica
tion or lasting ill-feeling between Germany
and France. Ono person , whoso Information
is cenerally accurate , tells mo that Schnae-
bolchad most dangerous relations with a cer
tain German officer ; that ho Is ouoof several
French agents of his typo who are feared by
the German authorities. The design , there
fore , was to strike him as unexpectedly as
possible , get tlio papers certainly and scare
the other agents ; then , if forced to do so , re
lease him and disown the action of the local
pollen ; but , more probably , give him a trial ,
condemn him to severe punishment , and
then deliver him totho French before the
penalty was enforced. Ono curious bit of
tactics tlio cveik brings to light-thot since
the election specially trusted ( ! ei man police
agents they snread over the districts to In
vestigate the feelings of the people toward
Germany. Such disguised police seem to
ha\e been the agents used In the arrest of
Schnaebelo.
A PK SIMIST'S VIEWS.
One undischarged pessimist tells me he re
gards the arrest ot Schnaebelo as a serious
matter because It Is such a characteristic Jilt
of Bismarck's. It Is Intended to Irritate the
Fiench nation to a point where the Fiench
will force war in spite of Germany's apologies
or apparent desire for peace , thus making
France the airgressor. This view Is not wide
spread , but there are still many not Ill-in
formed Germans who have been expecting
the declaration of a France-German war eacli
day for the past three months and are still
prepared for a declaration of war. Such
pessimists are , I notice , generally closely con
nected with military circles , although not
themselves Eoldicis.

was a poor old woman wbo did not at all
seem to realize that she wa * about to Icavo
the homo which had sheltered her from
childhood. She was very weak and i i a very
delicate state of health. Her ago is ninety
yeais. 'Iho rain fell outside and tlio miserable
house afforded poor shelter enough , but the
noblu Marquis was to send out on the road

who lived under him. The tenant had also
residing in the house his wife and six chil
dren. The sub-sheriff stated he was authoi-
Izcd to put the tenant back as care-taker , but
Mult < all refused , stating he would not have
his life even on such conditions. The sub-
sheriff then ordered two emergency men to
take out the poor old woman , and , after giv
ing his orders Immediately came toward and
addressed Father Sheehy , saying ; "It is not
1 who did It. "
Sheehy replied : "It Is the law does it , and
not the hanirman. "
As the poor old creature was put aside by
the emergency men. tears welled into the eye :
of all the spectators , and the tenants shouted
out : "We will all die the same death. " The
tenant also repeated again and again that hu
had his rents paid up to November last.

WASHINGTON , April 23. [ Special Tele
gram to the BEE. I The Interview In the St.
Louis paper between President Cleveland
and a prominent democratic senator In
which the former is made to decline the
nomination Is ridiculed here. On the day
the dispatch was sent west Scimtois Vest
ntidCockrull of Missouri and Jones of Ar
kansas were at the white house. Cockicll Is
not gushing enough to slop over on such a
subject and Jones of Arkansas would not
claim to have heen taken Into the president's
confidence. The general euess as to the
origin of the dispatch gives Senator Vest all
thocicdlt that belongs to it. This Is the
opinion as to the authorship at the white
house. Colonel Lament of course denies
the alleged Interview and says there Is no
occasion for the president to express himself
at this time on the subject of ronomlnatlon.
The Interview is very annoying to Mr. Cleve
land because It makes him appear like a self-
glorlller and conceited prig. Mr. Vest's so-
rcrct dislike of the I ways of the administra
tion and his outward adulation of the presi
dent are well known. If the president ever
declared ho was ' tired of being In
ofllce he meant no more than other eminent
office-holders have meant. They complain
of the hardships of tmblic duties. The Inter
view is believed > to bo a job put up
for the purpose of forcing Cleveland to
commit himself. Ho refuses to bo trapped.
The president himself denies In the most
emphatic terms that helms expressed to any
person his Intentions with respect to a second
term. Ho was In conversation with more
than one visitor and has been pressed to
commit himself on this question. To every
one ho has made the same answer , viz : That
lie had not given any thought to a renomlna-
tlon ; that It was'ar much as he could do to
find time to think about how to get through
tlio present four years with benefit to tlio
countrv. satisfactorily to the people who
elected him and credit to himself. This Is as
much as he has ever said. On the general
topic allusion to his health , which
he is quoted as making ho < ! e-
claies ho never made and would
not niuko. as ho hau no such apprehensions
as arc attributed to him. Ho is feeling very
well and Is bearing the burdens of office with

the sinking fund during the next hscal year.

above proposition , but declined to commit
himself further than to sav that he had the
question under consideration and might pos
sibly conclude to take the course indicated.

THE TRIBUNE AND VETERANS.
The Now York Paper Explains Its Re
cent Circular.
NEW Yor.K , April 23. Thp Tribune will
say editorially to-morrow : "Now that the
battle over tho.Tribune's . modest , tranquil
and successful' endeavor to obtain from
veterans of the Grand Army their individual
opinions on the subject of pension legisla
tion has spread over the country , It Is well to
Inquire lu tbe Interest of peace and good fel
lowship who the antagonists are. " The edi
torial then goes on to say these antagonists
arc .those devoted friends and close confi
dantes of the soldiers who , In their worship
of "reform In general and the present ad'
ministration In particular , were lately pro
claiming that the soldiers themselves despise
the dependent pension bill and tejolce
in the vote. " It Is plain to be seen , says the
editorial , that these reformers are - absolutely
lutely ceitaln they are lighting that man
Blalne. " Any. 'movement , therefore , which
Is likely to elicit an expression of the popu
lar will on any subject , must , In thn nature
ol tilings , be a movement In his Interest to
be headed otf by them at any cost. The Tri
bune says It went lirst to head quarters and
General Falrchicld promptly and cordially
responded by sending a list ot army posts
and an authenticstatementof his own hearty
support ol a most liberal scheme of pension
legislation. Circulars to the rank and file of
the organization were then sent out and were
responded to In the most frank
satisfactory manner. This the Tribune of
fers as positive proof that General Fairchild
was misrepresented in thn statement that in
council lie said ho "know nothing of the
Tribune's efforts or desires. " Referring to
tlio rank and rile of the Grand Army , whoso
replies are being received as last as they can
bo taken care of , the editorial says In con
clusion : "They understand peifectly that
the Tribune does not tvant paitlsan utter
ance or an official uroniinclaniento , and they
sham our conviction that the country , havini :
been forced to hear professional ravings from
a reform tripod , would gladly listen to sol
diers' v'evvs ' from soldiers' lips. "

Tlio Plnkorton Agency Deny Shadow
Ing Patrick Egan.
CHICAGO , April 23. ( Special Telegram to
ho HEX. ] Superintendent Robertson , of the
'Inkerton agency , was asked to-day as to
IIP truth of the statement that detectives
vere shadowing Mr. Patrick Egan , ox-presl-
lent of the National league. "It Is all bosh
as far as wo are concerned , " said ho. "Somo
ears ago , " ho continued , "wo did BOIUO
vork for the Encltsh government on this
and league business , but at present , I as-
uio you , wo have nothing to do with or tor
) ownlug street , or with newspapers or
other detectives , or Irish or British govern-
upntal mutters. It would not bo difficult , 1
am sure , to procure specimens of Mr. Epan's
mud vtntlug. About that gentleman or his
business however , neither the Plnkerton
agency nnr mj self know anything beyond
vhat appears In the public print. " The
saim- reply was maik by the icpresentatlvcs
if other local detective agencies , though one
or two suggested that If the I'lnkcitons
were onciwed In the work they would
latuially deny It.
"I have thought for some time that the
i'lngllsh goxeminent had detectives here , "
said a piomlneiit Irish sympathl/er and ex * >
tlllrerof thu National league today.What
ed mo to tills belief was that two or three
lines 1 have noticed persons following mo ;
then again a man would conm Into my office
anil Inquire about some trivial matter. Tlio
purpose of his visit was plainly to sire HIM
ip and acquaint himself with my jv.-rsonal
appearance. It theio were such men hero
their business , I think , is to acquaint them
selves with thu personnel ot the Irish sympa-
lilers In this country. They baldly expect
o connect me with any overt act. Do 1 think
.here will bo any overt acts If the bill should
become a law ? I do. but I don't think they
could be traced to this country. However.
.here are some individuals here and small
wdles of men who aie. very bitter In their
hatred ot England , and I would not bo sur-
msed If they would do something criminal.
There are a good many rumors alloat that
schemes and plots and bomb throwing con-
spiracles are already on foot , but I takn no
stock In them. Such things would hurt the
Irish cause. "

way Commissioners.
DES MOINES , la. , April 23. [ Special Xelc-
gram to the BEK.J The Iowa Railway com
missioners to-day decided an Interesting
case on the complaint of D. A. Blanchard. of

wagons from Fond du Lac to Adel under an
agreement that a certain rate should .bo
charged. The wagons were billed through
from Fond du Lac to Adcl over the Chicago

Wabash , and when they arrived there was
an excess of $10 over the agreed price. He
complained to the railway commissioners ,
who find that the goods were delivered to tlio
DCS Molnes Storage and Forwarding com
pany by the Fort Dodge company and
that the excess charge was made by the stor-
ace company of S13 for storage and trans
ferring the wagons fiom a broad guage to a
narrow gauge car and S3 by the Fort Dodge ,
for switching upon the Wabash track ; that
Blaiiclmrd gave a written order to the stor
age company to receive and forward the
wagons from DCS Molnos and that this order
released tlio railroad company from liability
for extra charges. Had the consignee not
given an order to the storage company here ,
he would have lecelved his wagons at the
billi-d price , the connecting roads would have
made the transfer and he would have saved
his storage leo.
