Special to Tiir. Bin.1 : General Boulangor's
suicide has boon the sensation of the week.
Llttlo else has been spoken of. Mine. Bou
langor and her daughter first hoard the rows
from newsboys crylngjt in the street. She
did not got the telegram sent to her till the
cloning ot the tragedy. The scenes nt
the Brussels graveyard were simply
disgusting. Some of the crowd who came to
witness the scene of the suicldo wont so far
ns to dip their handkerchiefs In the blood
which remained on the tombstone. Two
men were urrostod for cutting off piocas of
the trl-color ribbons which were attached
to the wreaths Bouiangor had placed there.
Once again wo have boon thrilled with
what Is hero generally known ns the "drama
d1 amour. " A special stir is glvon to It
owing to the rank of ( .ho assassin , who is a
surgeon major in the army. His name is
Breton and ho is a knight of the Legion of
Honor. The woman In the question , named
Foyband , had llvod many years with M.
Goncssit , a dentist.
UcHcrtod Her Lover.
Finally she obtained 45,030 francs from
him nnd loft him to live with
Breton , a former comrade In arms
of his. Gonossli having discovered
tbo biding place of the couple owing to a let
ter son' , him from Mmo. Fayband , ho bled
himself there , knocked at the door and WAS
refused admittance. Ho then went ever the
way to a merchant and as nod for a drink , and
nt the same moment Breton appeared nt the
door , revolver In hand. Without n word
Breton opened IIro upon Qcnosslt and shoV
him In the roglon of tbo heart. Ho fell In nn
adjacent room , crying "Arrest him , I nm
lost , "
The murderer pursued his victim and as
' ho foil discharged a second bullet into his
back. The assassin then pointed the weapon
at those In front of him and fled across the
road to his house where Madam Faybond
was walling. A few minutes Inter tbo police
knocked nt the door ot Briton's house and
found It looked. They entered through'tho
window and discovered that tbo pair had
taken flight through Iho garden at the back.
Member of the Eighty-Ninth.
Brltlon belongs to the Eighty-ninth line
nnd had a go0d reputation , but was of a violent
lent temper. Mmo. Fuyboud was not ro-
mirkablo for beauty. She was the mother
of three children by mnrrlngo. Neither have
yet boon found , Breton wrote n letter to his
colonel , saying : "I deliver my sword into
your hands and can only say that I
nm sorry fir the net commuted , to
which I wns pushed by Intolerable
vcxntlons. I nsk you only for n few hours to
take counsel with my conscience. " So fat-
no arrest has boon made , but Urcton would ,
If caught , bo tried by court martial. It
appears that Gcnuisot had written him many
letters containing threats.
Tno literary feature of the week has boon
the publication of a book from tbo pan ot the
DuchcBso Dazes who , besides being n loader
of fashion , Is taking tbo greatest Interest In
charitable work , being also n sculptor , a tint
ruto game shot and an excellent driver ot
four horses. She now bursts upon us ns Iho

Special to TIM : lHi-Tho : | ncodlo of fate
points with unerring certainty on the dial of
destiny. After spending some time in a vain
search for Dr. Fornonl , I concluded to trusl
to luck. A few mornings ago It occurred
to mo 1 was ill and I accordingly requested
the hotel kcoper to send for n doctor ,
Behold my surprise when , half an hour later ,
I shook hands with the good nnturcd Dr.
Fornonl , the expert who attended J. G.
Bhilno In this very city some two years aco.
"Doctor , " I spoke up , "will you not un
bosom yourself nnd tell mo something of your
Illustrious patient , our Hlninoi"
"Of courao I will , " ho replied. "In my
onlnlon Blalnotind himself to blnmo for the
greater part of his sickness. On reaching
hero from the north no evidently Ignored the
difference of temperature inside of St. Goth-
ard , where It is most always warm , and on
emerging from it with some ono nnd one-half
metres of snow nil around , nnd a differ
ence of tomDcrnturo of some twenty
degrees , Hlalno neglected adding
n warm overcoat to his usual
apparel , nnd In consequence arrived here
with a heavy cold which culminated in
rheumatic paralysis of ono side , Whllo in
this condition Blalno gave himself up to
gloomy reflections , fearing chiefly that ho
should never moro bo able to render any ser
vices to his country.
"It wns nmuslng , " continued Dr. Fornonl ,
"to see the over zcnlousncss of these about
him. 'ThU gentleman Is very sick,1 , said nn
old lady to mo ns I entered tholr rooms nt the
hotel. 'You must treat him gently and not
reveal to him bis actual condition. ' She had
scarcely finished when I came upon Miss
Harriet Blnino. She , too , cautioned mo
against any expression of opinion. 'Smooth
It ever , you know , nnd try to pacify him ,
doctor , won't you ? ' (
. "Well , after all this admonition , I hod no
doslro to oiillghton Mr. Blalno. On entering
his chamber I found nlm In a pitiful condi
tion and I could not help feeling sorry for the
man. Mr. Blnino suffered from what is
known us rheumatic paralysis , which is not
so fatnl as when accompanied by hemorrhage
of the brain. Still , nt his time of life , with
not too great staying povvora and llttlo recu
perative resources , It is surprising the progress
ho made. Even at that tlmo ho would have
done yet better had ho acted on my advice
and stayed here a llttlo longer , but ho became
nervous , fancied that the air In his rooms
wns poisoned , etc. , yet his qunr'ers were the
best In the hotel , with high ceilings nnd well
ventilated.
"Blamo is chiefly a hypochondriac. It
worried him to think that no should no
longer bo able to play a part in public affairs ,
and his prldo cotila not wall reconcile Itself
to the inevitable. Thus it happened that
after four weeks' stay here , and contrary to
my ndvico , ho loft for Florence , where , ns
you know , ho became worse and
had to employ Dr. Baldwin , and
where ho finally became convinced of
bis physical condition and wrote that now
famous'lottler which surprisodvusshorb'wh'i ? *
got to know him almost as much as his com
panions at homo. In my opinion Blnine , nt
his time of llfo , tvill do well to abstain from
any excitement , ns only absolute peace and
quietness and rest can secure htm a ripe old

Cable Special to Tun Bnc. ] Lord Salisbury
has once more prepared n little of surprise
for his party. Hois never particularly anx
ious to ninko appointments to office ,
preferring the Lalssez Falro policy
In that as In other things , but
the death of Haikcs obliged him
to find a new postmaster ceneral. All sorts
of persons were mentioned as likely to get
the berth , but , to the astonishment of every
body , an inveterate place hunter wus picked
for it In the person ot Sir James Ferguson.
Ho has always stood hat in band when any
thing wan to bo given away nnd his pertinac
ity seldom failed of reward.
Ho ! s of the narrowest nnd dull typo of man
and ho Is a very bad speaker. Ho has novel-
had any experience In the postoftlco business ,
out apparently Lord Salisbury wanted to
get him out of the foreign office where ho
was nn under secretary , and one line morning
ho was kicked up stairs. Then came
the second act in the llttlo
comedy. Somebody must bo put
in the vacant place and once
moro tadpole ? and tapers were on the alert.
The Carlton club was allvo with rumors that
so and so was sure to got the prize. At last
It was announced that Lord Salisbury hud
chosen his under secretary. Who wus It ? A
gentleman with two recommendations , ono
that ho belongs to the Lowthor family and
the other that ho married n niece of Lord
Salisbury.
Wnat more could any ono desire ? The
Lowthors have always lorded It over com
mon folks. Add to this their connection
with Lord Salisbury and their claims become
Irresistible , but there are murmurs both loud
und deep lit the conservative party. Are

Are the hnrd working , middle class members

to put government families In power for so

Lost In the Argentine.
The depression which hung so
long over tno American market , and
the loss of conlideneo in railway
shares and bonds drove the British public
Into other fields. They wont further and
fared worse. The Argentine Republic swal
lowed up their money and then surplus capi
tal began to ( low to the United States.
Steadiness In .tho American market is
what is desired. An immense demand
"
would soon spring up hero for Amorl-
can bonds or shares with any decent
prospect before the investors. A member of
an eminent banking ilrm said to mo today :

Of coursi the hint Is taken especially in

thcro is anything suostantlnlly wrong In

Tbo How of British gold all through the

Loxnov , Oct. ! ) . [ Now York Herald
Coblo Special to Tin : HER. ] Tbo engage
ment of Or. Antonno Dvorljak , the famous
Bohemian composer and director of tlio
American National Conservatory of
Music , makes him an interesting
Jit ; nro to nil Americans. For that
reason I wont to St. James hall to
sea him conduct the first rehearsal of his
now requiem mass written for the Birming
ham festival next wook. It was then In tbo
morning and the rugged Bohemian composer
stood with his back to the audience In u pul
pit facing the amphitheatre.
Every man in the gigantic scml-clrclo had
a grecnbacked school book In front of him.
Here the Unto warbled , there the violin com
plained , now It was the double bass groaning
and then It was the strident clarionet or
throbbing baas viol. All was discord and con
fusion , Down in the wilderness of crimsoned
benches sat the audience of musicians , each
one with his or her flngor on tbo llrst page of
tbo requiem music.
Thou Cnnio tlio MiiHlo.
High up abova the stage sat the organist
running the scales. Eyes or sun
light sparkled on the golden tracery
ot tbo lofty colling. Suddenly
there was sllenco. Dvorlak's baton was In
the air , Ono , two , three .Urolios and a wave
of Bolcmn musla wont billowing through the
hall. Then came tbo rolling of basses and
walling of reeds , Drorjak gave himself up
to tbo music. Hli gestures expressed com-
"plete abandon. Hut In a few minutes a toll ,
bread shouldered man strode In upon the
stage and stood beside Dvorjuk.
Ho nad spectacles on bis nose and a huge
board sprawling ever his big chest. Ho was
Dr. Hans Hlclitcr , a great dramatic con
ductor who Is director of the Birmingham
festival. Then began an extraordinary
iconoDvorjalc and Utchter conducted the
rehearsal together , each beating time in his
own way and shouting directions to the In-
itruuiontaltsls.
Koine Slight Discord.
Up to that moment tbo requiem bad thrilled
me , but pcnco and jiootrj fled -with the np-
of Dr. Hlctitcr. In tbo most subllino pass
ages his tremendous vcteoj could bo heard
shrieking , "No , no , no ; you must do Hko
Ihltj listen to mo : Woo'.wrempa ' , wrorapa ,
wee tlda. Then you must o like this :
Gnor-r r , gnor r r,1 gnor p p , wee
wromna tlda. "
Thou Dr. Hlcbtor wou/d glvo nn imitation
of the way the music would sound. Some-
tlmos his powerful voice would Sound HKO n
circular saw striking n knot In a plno plunk.
In the most tender and moisting part of
the requiem would como n sudden
"hist" and n startling stomp of the feet. Dr.
lilchtcr would turn on a faulty musician and
cyohlin In sllenco with nn expression of extreme -
tromo rago. The poor follow would look ns
II ho wanted to crawl on.hU kncos.
Not the Correct Thing.
Then the conductor wonld swing his arms
above his head crying , "you must play Hko
this pom pom ta in , ta ra pom
pom ta ra ra tn pom pom wco wee ump
Is the way you must do It , " * whereupon the
baritone would go Into n fit ot laughter and
the requiem would proceed. But whllu Dr.
Ulchtcr was talcing the place of the orches
tra. Dvorjak would roar : it the unfortunate
players , "b , o , b , d , " waving his baton In
time to the notes. I would not have been In
that orchestra and have faced those volleys
for a small fortune.
It too about two hours to ronearso the re
quiem mass nnd the Judgment of nearly all
the musicians present was that it would
rank us Dvorjak's most Important worlc.
Mine. Albaln's Illness prevented her from
singing the loading soprano part nnd It Is
only fair to Miss Williams to say that the
dual leadership seemed to startle her out ot
all condition to sing at tbo rehearsal.
Ijofiy nnd I-'iiII of Fooling.
In Birmingham tomorrow" bur performance
may bo better Judged. To nttnmpt n serious
under the conditions
criticism of a composition *
tions of Thursday's rehearsal would bo use
less. The chorus which plays a vital part in
the music was nbscnt , which accounted for
some of the dullness , but whenever the worlc
was purely instrumental , 'it was lofty nnd
lull of feeling. 'Tho rapid passages for the
full orchestra , with wnich the composition
abounds , nro instinct wltheraco and power.
Dvorjnk was nt breakfast wuen I saw him
In the Langham hotel yesterday. Ho Is a
short muscular man , witha , thick neck , black
beard , largo bright oycs and a positive man
ner in speaking. "Yci , I'biwo accepted the
position of director of the National Con
servatory of Music In Now York , "
ho said. "Mrs. Thurbcr bas sent mo a con

"No amateurs , certainly not. There will
bo none but professionals. "
"Then you agree with Anton Uubensteln
that It is a waste of tlmo to train amateurs. "
"I do. "
"When I , vas In Kussln last winter , " I
said , "Hubonstoin told mo that in his opinion
the Influence of Wagner and Liszt and Bur-
liez was disastrous , and had checked all
musical progress. Ho said that nothing great
could bo accomplished In the development of
music until the evil of these three composers ,
who had buried true music under rnora decor
ation , had passed away. "
IdcaH ol' Amnlciiri.
"How do you feel on that point ! "
" 1 emphatically disagree with Hubonstoin
In that matter , " said Dvorjak. "Tho Influ
ence of those composers Is good and helping
In tno development of pund musical taste.
In dlamltlc music 1 place Wagner and Mo/art
above all others. "
"Do you think , " I asked , "It is possible to
build up a native opera in the United
States ! "
" 1 don'tcatch the point , " replied Droyak ,
"how native opera I"
"An opera , , ' I rejoined , "distinctly na
tional In Its tone , dealing with American
events , with Indians for Instance , written by
nn American and sung and played by
Americans. "
Dvoyak smiled grimly. "So far as you
have gone , I say yos-it * can bo dane after
many years , but as to muslc , oh I that is
another thing , Americans can have native
music , but no national music.
Thcro Is no nationality In music. The
Hbrotto may bo American and the performers
also American , but no such thing as Amor-
lean musio any moro than German or French
music is possible.
Iiifluenuo of Ocriiinn Compose .
America will have to reflect the Influence
of the great German composers Just ns all
countries do. If a really good American
libretto Is offered inb while I aui in Now
York I will compose tho. opera musio for it.
1 will oven compose the music for nn opera
dealing with Indian legends. "
"How about the conservatory at Praguoi"
I asked , _ (
"I have only eight pupils tboro now. Two
of ihum are very strong. Ono is u genius.
His name Is Joseph /.uch. He is only 17
years old and yet writes the most oxqulslta
symphonies. His chamber musio is some
thing wonderful. " ?
"He may be a rival ta'young ' Mascagnl , tbo
composer of the Cavallioru Hustlcana , " I
suggested.
"Ugh ! " said Dvorjalc,1 * "I can't stand that
opera. " .
Hndionl Difference.
"But It takes the whole world by storm. "
"I don't care ; I don't admire operatic
muslounyway. But this particular ono ha
no originality. It u clever In certain re
spects , but I would not want to hear It
again ,
"The critics of Europa have raved ever

"Nothing that has been written In the last

"But it Is disgusting. . U is the worst thing

The Mendelsohns and Warsourhs , who

that they will continue to bo the ro-

Regarding the czar's presence In Berlin ,
the Journalists who nro obtlcod to record the
events have no agiccablo anticipations of
tholr duties. The precautions which have
been taken to prevent any but olllcials approaching
preaching the czar nro so strict that oven the
authorized representative * of the press will
bo kept at a distance. The Journalists who
were allowed access to the railroad station
last week when the rvur was hurrying
through Berlin on his way to Moscow wore
locked up In a waiting room and only got a
glimpse of his majesty through a window as
bo alighted from the train and was greeted
by Prluco Leopold who was doing tno honors
In the absence of the emperor. They had
to await patiently for mi hour while the car
devoured sandwiches and drank cup after
cup of tea , after which they saw him depart.
Ills capacity for eating appears to bo accom
panied by a capacity for drinking , each cup
of tea being plentifully laced with rum in-
steud of milk.
Trade In American Pork.
Tbo replies to Inquiries made of loading
wholesale dealers hero In Hamburg regardIng -
Ing trade In American pork show Unit It Is
btlll limited , the cost of the inspection in
America , combined with the duty still Im
posed here , prevents the popular sale of
American hog products. The price for salted
American pork rules about 31 marks per 100
weight , whllo cured Gorman bacon sells atfiS
marks. The dealers are combining In an at
tempt tn got the government to reduce the
duty , which Is now 10 marks per 100 pounds.
Until this Is done no marked Impetus will bo
given to the trade In American pork.
The rescript providing that foreign Insur-
once companies must Invest In Prussian con
sols Is largely due to the influence of the
Gorman companies , which have become Jeal
ous of the nma/Jng success of tbo Amoilcan
companies , which are now acquiring tbo
greater part of the insurance business
throughout the country. The order
will without doubt operate greatly
to the injury of the foreign
companies whoso constitutions obllgo thorn
to Invest a portion of their profits In speci
fied securities. Thu , an Important French
company , "Lo Conservatour , " which op
erated In western Germany , will probably bo

n week of glorious weather In London , with

Hundreds of Americans are scattered ever

I hear that Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett

Creiguton Webb took a powerful drug this

English patrons of the turf re
gard the dates of the Bclmont stud
sale In America ns very unfortunate
ns it occurs in the week of the C/arowitch
stakes , the second last grand handicap of the
year. This will prevent many from attend
ing the sales in person , but 1 can say that
nearly every Important owner of horses In
England will bo represented , by proxy If not
person.
It Is rumored that the negotiations with
the British government for the relaxation of
the restrictions upon the American cattle
trade are lluolv to bo successful. The govern
ment is favorably impressed with the showing
made by American inspectors as to the free
dom of cattle from disease.
The alleged Amorlcau petition to the

There Is a project on foot to organise a now

Simple Ceremonies Over the UomaliiH
of ( he Dead Agitator.
BnussF.i.s , Oct. ,1. Vast crowds of persons
congregated along the route traversed by the
funeral cortege of General Boulangor. A
decorous silence was observed by the throngs
as the hcnrso passed on Its way to the last
resting place , and most of tbo persons In tbo
crowd uncovered their toads. At the en
trance to the cemetery tbo advance of the
funeral procession was delayed by the actions
of a mob which had gathered at that
place and wore roughly crowding about
the cates , seeking admittance to the grave
yard to witness the last scones. The gend

Nnw YORK , Oct. M Valparaiso correspon
dence by mail has boon received hero detail
ing minutely the rapture of that city by the
congiosslonullst forces. The writer states
that General Burbosu , commanding the
government forces , dclined to bo taken
prisoner and was shot. Ono mini , shot
through the lungs , fought In the. battle ot
Plucilla , nnd then wnlkcd into Valparaiso , a
distanro of ten miles. Another quietly
smoked a clgnrotto whllo a bullet was taken
out of his entrails. They ono and all ap
peared to have no feeling.
Following Is the speech to the opposition
troops on loavinir Cnldcra by Joreo Monti and
Colonel Canto :
Von will bo landed at or near ValparalHO
nnd will march to fm > Uao. ( liuinuinlii-r , the
first division , ilbretly you land , yon will 1m
ou your own resotncoM , the llfi't will nut ho
uble ( o assist you. nnd will have to take your
own commissary department and maliii-luls
for laying u tcluKniplitie as von proceed.
Hemeinlicr this , you are to win or die If you
are repulsed , 11 second division will bo sent on
to overthiow tlio dletatoi , The same ro-
marUs arc anpllcalilo to thrm. If they fall ,
thu Meet will lie tiiUeii us close as possible to
Santiago , thu sailors landed , the ships ( lion
blown up and thenava ! lirlgadu matched upon
the capital and clthor make : i triumphant
entry Into the vanquished city or die with
their faces toward thu walis.
A surgeon who wasdressod ns a combatant
( the only one saved belonging to the govorn-
forces ) when made n prisoner was taken bo-
fore. Colonel Canto , who ox-pressed great regret -
grot that thonmbulanco corps was so cut up ,
but remarked that this was only to bo
'
expected , considering the rod cross'Hag was
not exhibited and the Medical department
bad worn no distinguishing dross. Ho was
afterward released nnd returned to. Valpa
raiso.
The government forces were utterly de
moralised. Ono shrupnoll shell from the
Esmorafda , bursting in the middle of n rogl-
mont in extended order , killed nnd wounded
over L'OO of them. The remainder of three
regiments , viz : Andes , Third and Ninth'of
tbo line , slept in six railway carriages tbo
night after the buttle ,
The officers of the government forces say
their opponents r.dvanccd in throes to rap
idly nnd quietly , making use of the whistla
instead of the bugle callsthat their approach
was unnoticed , und that the Manlichor n.ag-
azlna rifle sent a bullet clean through two
solid cars at 1,000 yards. The battle field
was a sickening sight dead men so firmly
locked together that they could not bo sep
arated , their knives being firmly embedded
In ono anotncr's bodies.
The Chilians are vorv superstitious , so the
opposition sent out uith their fighting line n
tall man In n black top bat und robed in
white , his duty being to expose him
self to view ns often ns possible.
Ho was seen by several regiments who
declared him n dolty nnd stnto that several
volleys were directed against him , the shot
passing through his body without doing him
any harm. Another ruse succeeded admir
ably. A largo tent was placed In n conspic
uous position , marked "EstadoMayor" ( chief
of staff ) nnd appaiuntlv unprotected. The
cavalry swooped down on It , but when about
OOU yards distant the tent dropped , exposing
a very powerful battery of machine guns ,
which at once opened a murderous fire , forc
ing them to rotlro nearly annihilated.
The opposition managed to got tholr forces
over the Aconcagua river by making fast n
line between two horses , and the men , hold
ing on to this , wore taken across In safety.
The only explanation of the disaster to the
Balmncoda government was dictated to mo
by Balmacodu's minister of war :
The defeat Is attributed by the leading
clilcfH to the following onuses :
1. The superiority of the armament of the
Insurgents In that they had thn Manlichor r -
pcatlng rllles , wltn a raiiRii of JI.IXX ) metres ,
whllo tbo government find thosu nfaslnglo
flro and a range of oftly l.lso metres.
' . ' . That though for the most part the chlofi
fought well thu Junior olllcors Imd llttlo en
thusiasm.
'J. That many of the povonuncmt solilleri
\vcnt over to the enemy , glvlnt ; IICIH ! to tholi
cries : "Como with us who will do vou no harm ,
und who niu paid In Bold und Blhoraml not
In paper , us you HID. "
4 , That the chiefs In the battle of I'laellla
concc'iitralc'd tholr Corn's In the right wing ,
loavlnir the loft almost unprotected.
! i. The cavaliy of the eovorninunt wore lat
In coming to thu Held , which led the enemy to
advance without danger pruNonted the gov
ernment In retreat from ieoranl/.lnKf. ;
A refugee priest bus written for mo th
following statement :
