France Ocrmnny and Utissln.
iJr.m.iN , July 10 , The tension of feeling
toward Franco has relaxed slhco the French
fete day has passed without the occtirenco of
nny anti-German demonstration. Tlio ac
counts In the German papers of Incidents In
Paris on Thursday represent that the rcpres-
v. slon of popular outburst was solely accom
plished by the presence of such mascsof troops
nil along the route traveled by President
Qrevy and his ministers on their way to tlio
review at Long Champ , ns had never been
seen In Pnrls since tlio days of the Empire ,
andythc papers seem to prove thatthe populace
were in readiness to make n demonstration ,
&nd that the extraordinary precautions taken
by the government , although successful In
paralyzing the Chauvinists , had given a
fectltlous rxsyect to ttio calmness which char
acterized the day. The German nmbaasy in
Paris was specially guarded. Thoieturn to
the Cciman people of n calmer mood
A
toward France can bo assured , however , only
by the cessation of a systematic persecution
of German residents In French towns , yet
the tendency seems to bo all the other way.
Minor German employes are being hunted
out of their places at the rate of ono hundred
weekly , nnd it Is estimated that Germans
holding situations In France , who last year
mimcred U.2,000 , have been decreased
one-half within the past six months.
Constant . streams of appeals 'for
hclo against the outrages being
perpetrated upon the Germans nro being
made to the German ambassay at Paris.
The.se appeals were made the subject of an
oral diplomatic representation to M. Florons ,
the foreign minister , by Count VonMunstor
on Wednesday last. The count has followed
his oral representation with a written re
monstrance to which the French
minister , M. Florens , will have to
make a written reply. Minister Florens
Is also asked by Count Yon Munster If Ills
government Is powerless to deal with the
organ of the Boulangcrists , the Le' Dcfonese
National , which declared that the German
functionaries in France wcro all spies , that
the central nest of reptiles was the German
nmbassy , and that Count Von Munster him
self was under the direction of nspy adminis
tration. Florons has made verbal promise to
Interfere and use every power
of the government to prevent
nssaults on the Germans In the future.
Since Count Von Munster made these re
monstrances the German consulate at Bor
deaux nnd Kouen report street attacks upon
Germans In these cities , and the Bordeaux
consul complains that the windows of his
residence have been smashed. Gorman
papers of every party concur in the opinion
that'.tho situation Is lntolerableand that it is
absolutely necessary for ttio French govern
ment to Interpose resolutely to stop German
" baiting , "
IIUSSIA AND OKllMANY.
The chief topic of Interest in Berlin after
the Fiench situation Is the unceasing depre
ciation of Russian stocks. The fact Is now
recognized by both political and financial
circles that the movement Is not led by the
speculators , but has definite olllclal Inspira
tion and Is a part of the government cam
paign of retaliation against the Uusslan nnd
anti-German economy policy. During the
last fortnight the fall In Uusslan securities
of all Issues averaged dally t ) per cent. The
return to economic friendship will not bo as
sisted by the latest Russian order dismissing
all Germans employed In commercial
and banking firms In the region of
Bt. Petersburg , Moscow and clsewhcro in
.Russia , nor by the government's refusal to
adopt the concurrent edict of the professor
ot Dorpat university , that it would bo un
wise henccfotth to conclusively use the Kus
sian language In classes , which rcfusa
caused the pioresoors without exception t <
resign. The enforcement of the govern
ment'a edict will be postponed for thirty'
one years , but after that tin
last German school In the Baltic
provinces must bo extinguished. Tlu
National Zeltnng announces the successful
police raid on Berlin socialists yesterday
evening , when seven persons , forming the
central committee of a secret society of dem
ocratH , worb arrested. It Is reported thai
grave evidence of treasonable conspiracy
Los been obtained against them.

JMorpliIno Do Deadly Work
at
The Wreck's Fatnl Itcsult * .
LINCOLN , Neb. , July 10. [ Special Tele
gram to the UKK | Dr. Max Itandnll , the
tan so terribly burned In the B. & M. wreck ,
icar this place yesterday , died at 4 p. m. at
lie Trcmont house after thirty-six hours ot
ntunsesulTerlng. By the dead man's side
ays his son , burned and swollen boy on d
ccognltion , unconscious nnd undoubtedly
lowly dying also. At 10 o'clock to-nlzht
hu boy isyctallvo , but the physicians hold
orth scarcely no hope. The relatives , who
veto summoned by telegraph , surrounded
ho bedside of the dead and the dying , nnd
ho scene was heartrending. The IIK
ailed at the coroner's office and found the
fllclal undecided as yet as to holding an In
quest , but It Is probable that ono will be
eld. Public opinion demands It , and on
every hand the sentiment is that the fcnr-
ul accident should bo probed to the bottom.
Klther the engineer ot the train is guilty of
iiauslaughterthrough criminal carelessness
or the railroad company Is uuilty of working
ts men beyond human endurance. In the
afternoon tlio company had an investigation
of Its own , and It Is understood that Kn-
; lneer Bowser , of the regular train , is clven
ho blame , but an investigation of that kind
nvestlirate.s nothing , and the public know It ,
ind the public further demand that the
burled secrets of the corporation be uncov
ered. It Is the almost universal opinion that
iCnglncor Bowser was asleep at his post , for
10 saw neither the signal at
ho station of Uavelock and saw not the
.rain ho ran into , althoiuh the track was as
straight as an arrow for miles. Tha conductor
if the train saw the signal and with the
} rakeman set fifteen brakes on the tear of
.ho train before the crash came , but received
no lielp from the engineer. The prevailing
iplnion is also that the train men in many
Instances are worked beyond human endur
ance , and the public seem to believe this a
case of that character. The people In dis
cussing the matter believe and peak out that
n good Intelligent jury should bo summoned
t > y the coroner and put the responsibility
where It belongs without the railroad com
pany being judge and jury nnd custodian of
Iho fpcts themselves. The good of the pub
lic and of every lailroad man is rcali/.ed to be
nt stake In this accident , and if it Is not
fixed to the bottom there will be a storm of
Indignant protests that will not down at the
pleasure of the railroad management. The
people of Lincoln want the truth known ,
and If the coroner should fall to hold an In-
questitmaybo expected that Judge Mason ,
as one of the railroad commission , will take
the matter in charge. Nothing for some
time In the capital city has created so much
discussion ns ttio tragic death of Dr. Randall
and the almost equally certain death of Ills
son by cremation in a wreck for which Kn-
gineer Bowser or the railroad company is
directly responsible.

ill probably bo as hot as to-day. Wo may
twsibly get a shower by to-morrow

ke this during the summers of 1873 and

cather then were not so long-continued as
its one has been. A cool spell this summer
as been the exception , while heretofore the
ot spells have been the exception. That is
10 only difference between this year and the
revlons ones. The hottest day this year

for both grain and provisions lias been well

duced , indicating a healthy trade. Advices
regarding the growing ciops report sotno
damage to small grain by Insects and
drouth , nnd the dry weither has
checked the growth of corn in
some sections , but the damage In
the aggrr&ato is not supposed to bo larger
than usually reported nt this season ot the

as favorable for Increased production in the
aggregate unless sotno uiitoiseen calamity

poit movement Is well mnlnfnlned In both
grain and provisions with prospects that
they will bo continued for Mimotlmo at least.
Arrivals of live stock have noa been quite sd
liberal , which may bo duo to the fact that
