BOULANGISM KNOCKED OUT. Republicans Will Have a Majority in the Chamber of Deputies. Boulangism Receives a Crushing’ Blow at the Election in France. The One-Man Rule Not Wanted in That Country at Present. Paris. Sept. 23—The elections in France j yesterday resulted in a crushing defeat to the Boualangists, who returned only 21 j members and whose entire representation | in the new chamber after the reballoting | will net exceed 36 members. The conser-! vatives elected 131 members and will get 30 more. The republicans returned 218 i and will secure over 100 more, making j their total strength in the chamber be- tween 325 and 360, against 220 or 230 representing the whole Reactionary-Boulangist coalition. The success of the republicans and the de- feat of the monarchy and Caesarism is a happy fact. The result of the election puts an end to the Boulangist-Monarchy con- spiracy. Returns from the elections in this city show that the conservatives did not elect a single member while the republicans re- turned one and the Boulangists four. Reballots will be necessary in thirty-seven divisions. M. Thevenet, minister of justice, has been re-elected but re- ballots will be necessary in the districts in M. Constans, minister of the interior, and M. Yves-Guyot, minister of public works, were candidates. Their election, however, is regarded as certain. Among the republicans defeated is MM. Milude. Goblet. Jules Ferry. Milliard and Joubert, while in the districts in which MM. Milleraud, Passy, Lockroy, Floquet and Barodet, republicans, and MAI. An- drieux, Laisant, Vergoin, Laur, De Su- sine and Naquet, anti-republicani, were candidates, re-ballots will have to be had. Count Dillon was elected. Official returns at noon from 536 elec- toral divisions show that the republicans have elected their candidates in 217 and the anti-republicans in 153. Re-ballots will l>e necessary in 166 divisions. Among the prominent republicans elected are MAI. Falheres, Ribot, Jules Roche, Granet, Develle, Deschanel, Barbe, Barrier and Reinach. Among the prominent opposi- tion candidates elected are AIM. Cassagnac, Lalon, Fould, Haussmann, Gonelle. Lanjuinais and Mun. It is believed that in 127 of the divisions where re-bal- lots will be necessary the result will be favorable to the republicans. In the other 39 divisions, the opposition will probably elect their candidates. The republicans also rely on electing the ten mem- bers from the colonies. They will thus hold 354 seats in the new chamber of deputies. In official circles a government ma jority is considered assured. Although the majority will not be large, it will be more compact and more homogeneous than that in the last chamber. Later returns show that the republicans have elected their candidates in 219 divis- ions and the opposion in 156. Reballots will be necessary in 170 divisions. The conservatives have elected M. Breteuil, Soubeyan, Mackau, Montgolfier and Bishop Froppel. Paris, Bspt. 23. Temps says the politi- cal shades of the new chamber will be much the same as those of the old. Paris, Sept. 23.—Boulangists claim the general elected from Mont Martre. They say the rejection of the Boulangist votes at some of the polling stations was illegal. DEATH OF WILKIE COLLINS. One of tin* Most Famous of Novelists Passes Away. London, Sept. 23.—AVilkie Collins, the famous novelist, is dead. He was born in London, in 1824.

He was first articled to a tea firm but exchanged commerce for law, and was a student at Lincoln’s Inn at the time of his father’s death.

In 1873 he made a tour of the United States giving public readings from his novels in the larger cities. His works are mostly novels printed as serials in periodicals. Of these, the best known are “The Woman in White.” “Man and AVife,” “The New Magdalen,” “The Queen of Hearts.” He has also written a few dramas and publish- ed a volumn entitled, “My Miscellanies,” made up of contributions to different mag- azines.

Kukendall at- tempted to quiet him but the maniac shot and fatally wounded her. An attempt was made* to capture the madman who barricaded the doors and windows and defied the crowd. Finally an entrance was gained at the rear of the house, a large syringe filled with chloro- form and the contents thrown upon the maniac. The fumes of the liquid rendered him unconscious. Foul Play. Burlington. AVis.. Sept. 23.—The dead body of AVxlliam AVegg. a wealthy retired farmer, was found in Fox river here at 5 o’clock this morning. Foul play is feared. Chicago. Sept. 23. The mammoth pub- lishing house of Belford. Clark A: Cos., which has a large establishment here and branches in New York and San Francisco, went to the wall today. This afternoon judgments were entered against them for 852.000 and attachments were issued, but shortly after a receiver was appointed by Judge Shepard. The failure while a surprise to the general public,has been expected for some time by those familiar with tbe firm’s standing. Attorney Newman said that the three principal causes of the fail- ure were the destruction of their place by fire in 1886 entailing a loss of over 8150.- 000; failuses of customers during the past two years and the tremendous competition which has almost destroyed the market for standard works. Newman said that in his opinion the total assets of the company i would amount to about 8400,000, and the I j liabilities nearly the same. I Prior to the appointment of a receiver, I Donahue & Henneberry. who are among i the largest creditors, filed a bill in which ! it is stated that the broken corporation’s capital was 8500.000, of which only 8200,- 000 has been paid in. The nominal assets, | according to this bill, amounts to less than $200,000, while the indebtedness will ex- ; ceed 8400,000. HISTORIC RUINS. Remnant of the Civilization of the Early Inhabitants of America. Washington, Sept. 23. —Sec’y Noble transmitted to the director of the geologi- cal survey a report by Special Agent Mor- rison on the condition of Casa Grande (Great House) ruins in Pinal county, Ari- zona, with instructions that necessary steps be immediately taken to repair and protect the ruins under the authority granted in tbe act of Alarch 2, ’B9. appro- priating 82,000 for that purpose. Special Agent Alorrison says the front of the main building measures sixty feet, and its width is forty-three feet; height of first story is 13 feet 10 inches, second nine feet, and third an 1 faurth stories eight feet re- spectively. The greater part of tbe upper story has disappeared. The walls are be- tween four and five feet thick and the ma- terial of which they are constructed is al- most indestructible. The concrete is made of fine gravel, sand and cement closely re- sembling granilithye now used in Washington. The report says that for miies around the mysterious Casa Grande, or great mounds now hardly distinguishable from the desert sands bear indisputable evidence of hav- ing been at some far remote period the abode of busy industries, and the superi- ority of its architecture, it having outlived all other structures by which it was sur- rounded. The numerous small apart- ments into which it was divided and the i elegance of the interior finish all point to ; the conclusion that it was the palace of a I king or chief who governed the primative ! Americans who inhabited these vast do- mains before tbe Aztec or Toltec. The most ancient of the traditions of Pimas and Pappagoes who yet live here where their fathers have lived for cen- turies, alluded to them as “the ruins.” The earliest historic record we have of ! Casa Grande was given by the famous | Spanish caviller and explorer, Cabeza de l Baca, who discovered it during his journey across the continent, about 1537. He states that the Indians then had no knowl- edge of the origin or history ot Alace. WORK ON THE CRONIN CASE. Woodruff and Kunze Ask that They he Discharged. Chicago, Sept. 23.—The work of im- paneling a jury in the Cronin case was | resumed this afternoon. At the opening lof court Judge McConnell rendered his I decision in the application of Woodruff for his discharge from custody. The ground on which the application was based was that the statutory limit within which he was entitled to a trial had passed. The court held that the ground stated was insufficient and denied the motion. During the reading of the court's decis- ion in the Woodruff case the prisoner Kunze was very much excited. Several i times he tried to rise but was kept back by his attorney Forest. AVhen the judge had concluded he got up and in spite of his at- torney began to speak; “I want to speak in my own interest,” persisted he, “Judge Longnecker told me I should lose nothing if I was innocent. 1 want him to tell for what he keeps me in jail yet.” “I am considering your matter now,” said the court kindly, and Kunze sat down. No additional jurors were secured to- day. A FUGITIVE SURRENDERS. A Murderer After Mouths of Wandering Gives Himself Up.

Detroit, Sept. 23. —A special to the News from Montague, Mich., says; George Doelle. for ten years night watch- man at the Montague Iron works, left work Sunday morning, slightly intoxicated with the purpose of killingg his wife.

An alarm was raised and Marshal Clinger went to the house, where he found Doelle hiding under the cellar stairs with a double-edged knife in his hand. The quarters were small and the marshal’s revolver was knocked out of his hand. Then commenced a fierce strug- gle during which Clinger was stabbed over the left eye and in three places on his hand, and received a two inch cut near the jugular vein. The marshal’s eyes filled with blood but he was game and at last choked his man into submission and drag- ged him to jail. At 6 o’clock last even- ing when the prisoner’s supper was sent to him he was found hanging by the neck from the cell bars dead, having committed suicide. A TORNADO’S VISIT.

The Emperor and the Visitor Have no Love for Each Other. A Sham Battle With Smokeless Pow- der a Grand Success. Berlin, Sept. 21. —The Kieler Zeitung announces that the Russian yachts. Per- gava and Czarevena and the ironclad. Gen- eral Admiral, conveying the czar, are timed to reach Kiel on the morning of the 27th inst. If Bismarck's plans are effected instead of the short and unceremonious visit, the czar will be treated to a number of court banquets and a diplomatic dinner. The absence of Di Giers. the Russian foreign minister, indicates that the czar is determin- ed to refuse Prince Bismarck a political con- ference. All the Russian papers agree to an exceptionally friendly treatment of the Czarwitch during his visit to Germany and the courtesies offered the Czar do not affect the relations between the two countries. The Czar's personal feelings toward the Emperor have recently been excited by an incident arising from his conferring the order of St. Stanislaus on a Bulgarian. Major Greuff. who kidnapped Prince Alexander, of Battenberg. and who now is a Russian pensioner. The emperor at the military dinner in the course of conversa- tion expressed wonder that the decoration should have been given to a traitorous soldier. Three Prussian officers who wore the decoration of the order of St. Stanis- laus heard the emperor's words. They forthwith returned their insignia to St. Petersburg with a collectively signed protest stating that they could not wear an order that had been given to the mutineer. The czar's exasper- ation was so intense that he demanded through Count Schouvaloff. Russian am- bassador here, the punishment of the offi- cers. The emperor placed them under ar- rest for unauthorized correspondence with a foreign government, but after two days he ordered their release. The manouveres at Hanover terminated today. The Post publishes a report on the manouveres which is conclusive as to the necessity of smokeless powder henceforth for both artillery and infantry use. The corps using smokeless powder got within 200 yards of the enemy without the latter being able to determine the distance. The latter were often taken on the flank and were unable to guess whence the fire came. If it had been a real battle they would have been annihilated, The war of. flee is preparing a supply of smokeless powder for all troops including the second class landwehr. The latest perfected smokeless powder leaves no sign after fir- ing by infantry and only a slight gray mist after firing of artillery. The constant squabbles between Edwards, United States consul at Berlin, and the merchants, have resulted in a formal com- plaint being sent to the foreign oflice of the syndicate of meexhants society regarding the consulate's delay of business and uncivil treatment. The complaint has already been referred to Herbert Bicmarck, who is indisposed to interfere on the ground that the matter was of too little importance. Consul Edwards, it is said, has the approv- al of secretary Blaine in the general line of his conduct. WANTED—A J FRY. Still Endeavoring: to Secure Men to Try the Cronin Suspects. Chicago, Sept. 21. —Judge McConnell did not announce his decision in the ap- plication of Frank Woodruff for his dis- charge from custody on the ground that he had not been tried within the statu- tory time, at the time of the opening of the criminal court this morning, as it was supposed he would do. The work of getting a jury to try the other prison- ers in the Cronin case was resumed. No additional jurors were received. Be- fore adjournment Attorney Donahue on behalf of his client Kunze renewed his motion that he be given information as to evidence against Kunze saying he knew no more than when appointed by the court to defend the prisoner. The matter was argued at length and finally taken under advisement. LET IT END. A Practical Solution to the Trouble Be- tween the Railroads. Chicago, Sept. 21. —The Times tomor- row will say that a deal is now under con- sideration which if consummated will af- ford a satisfactory solution to the north- western railway trouble by removing the cause of ail the recent trouble. The new plan briefly is for the Chicago & North- western or the Chicago, Milwaukee <Sr St. Paul, or both to secure con- trol of the Burlington & Northern road and operate it in the interest of their own companies. It has gone so far that the terms of the deal are said to be partly settled. The basis is turning over to the Burlington & Quincy of the Milwaukee & St. Paul’s line to Kansas City, or if the deal be with the Northwestern the barter will be for the latter’s branch lines south of the Platte river in Nebraska. WANTS TO DIVIDE. Dakota's Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows will Divided With the State. Columbus, Sept. 21. —The sovereign grand lodge of Odd Fellows today author- ized the grand lodge of Dakota to divide its jurisdiction at the next annual meet- ing and authorized the grand sire to grant a charter to the grand encampment of North Dakota. The constitution was so amended as to provide for the election of officers of the sovereign grand lodge annually instead of biennially; permitting the state and territorial grand bodies to make laws disqualifying persons engaged in the selling of intoxicating beverages for membership in the order.

INEARTHING THE VICTIMS, The Work of Rescuing' the Dead and Dying at Quebec Going on. Human Beings Crushed Out of All Resemblance in the Ruins. List of the Departed Cannot as Yet Be Estimated. Qi v.bkc. Sept. 21. The work of digodng out the victims of the landslide was carried ou all night, although it rained incessantly. The efforts of the workers were concentrated on a spot where a man named Kemp was supposed to be. At 4 o’clock this morning the work was far enough advanced to allow him to be seen. At intervals Kemp would sing popular songs and then would shout, "Police! Police!" The poor man iseithee insane or in a delirium. A man named Beauchamp, who. with his two brothers, had worked at the wreck without sleep ever since the downfall of the slide, crawled into a small opening to get at Kemp, who was lying some fifteen feet under an immense pile of earth and stones, bnt the brave man had not gone six feet when the whole mass fell in upon him. He. however, managed to crawl back a couple of feet but was fastened there by the corpse of a woman, which blocked the ext it. A Redemptorist father, who passed the night at the scene encouraging the workmen, knelt down and recited the prayer for the dying. | The workers, although almost exhausted, i redoubled their efforts and in a few min- utes Beauchamp was pulled out alive but badly stunned and bruised. John Nolan, who. it was thought, had been killed, was found still alive, though he had been un- der twenty-five feet of ruins for over thirty- six hours. It will be several hours before he can be got out. Men of the battery and royal schools of cavalry are still aiding in the work of rescue. Timothy Berrigan, one of the injured, died this morning at the Hotel Dieu. Cor- oner Belleau opened the inquest this morn- ng. and after a short sitting adjourned it until Tuesday next. The damages by the slide are roughly estimated at 8250,000 all told. A number of wild rumors are in cir- culation as to the number of victims still under the ruins. Champlain street is gen- erally a pretty active thoroughfare. It is said three or four carts with their drivers and several others were buried in the slide. The bravery of some of the poor mothers in their time of trouble was truly noble. At 1:30 o'clock this morning an unknown was heard pacifying her children beneath the ruins. The latter were crying piteously for help, but ere that arrived the cries were silenced by death as the mother and her children passed into eternity. Their bodies have not yet been reached. In another spot near where Kemp was lying, the voices of two children were dis- tinctly heard, but they grew silent, and nothing has been heard from them, and they are, it is feared, dead. This afternoon the body of Mrs. Kemp was found under a mass of stones, beams and rafters. The head only was clear. In order to release the body the men attempt- ed to move a stone weighing some five hun- dred pounds but it crashed down upon the woman's head smashing it to a jelly. The body was recovered but one leg was torn off in pulling it out of the wreck. The corpse of Margaret Walsh was reached under a pile of masonry. The head was severed from the body which was horribly mutilated. These are the only additional corpses found after twenty-four hours work. A quantity of rocks, lumber and masonery is so great that three or four hours hard work does not show any dif- ference in the debris. It is thought six- teen persons are still missing and that they were in the basements of buildings at the time of the land slide. The debris must be cleared level to the ground in order to get at them, and this will occupy several days. The guard room of the river police station has been trans- formed into a mortuary chapel and twen- ty corpses which have been recovered, iire laid in a row in front of the altar, on which a number of tapers and lamps are burning. Aromatic essences are burning to counteract the stench arising from the decomposing bodies. The chapel is open to the public, and people are flocking there en masse. The funerals will take place to- morrow. WANTED A FORTUNE. Gen. Faulkner’s Second Trial for Wrecking the Dansville Bank. Buffalo, Sept. 19—The special trial of Gen. Lester B. Faulkner charged with wrecking the Dansville National bank was begun in the United States district court before Judge Coxe this morning. Win. B. Hoyt. Hon. D. N. Lockwood’s assistant made the opening plea to the jury. He reviewed the circumstances leading to the failure on the 18th day of August. “Stock in the Dansville National bank" said Hoyt was owned entirely by the Faulkner family and they are wholly responsible. We in- tend to prove that Lester B. Faulkner re- ported to the comptroller of the currency in his last statement that the bank was only 810,000 short, yet in less than thirty days the bank failed with $486,000 liabil- ties, and with only 8199 in the safe. We expect to show that there was $107,500 in the bank at the very Hme that Lester B. Faulkner made his fraudulent report to the U. S. treasury. ’’ George H. Wood, of Washington, who has been connected with the treasury as examiner of reports of national banks for the past twenty-five years, identified several Dansville bank reports. James M. Don- ald. cashier of the Hanover national bank, of New York, said on May 18. 1887, the amount indebted to the Dansville bank to the United States was $57,847 and the amount of the indebtedness on the first day of August, 1887, just previous to the failure was 818,885 on discount paper and 818,000 on temporary loans. The witness went to Dansville and saw Faulkner, who showed him the property he owned. The witness suggested to Faulkner that a mortgage ou the property would be acceptable, but he made no reply save that he would communicate with the government officials in regard to the mat- ter. Hoyt read a number of letters re- ceived by the Hanover bank from Lester B. Faulkner, stating that he soon would come into possession of a large amount ot property, and he hoped the time might come when the Dansville bank could loan them plenty of cash with no interest. ANOTHER VICTIM. Another of the Unfortunate of the Steam Launch Ueo Found. Cleveland Ohio. Sept. 19.—This room- ing the body of Fred Pelow. one of the victims of the steam launch (Leo) explosion, was found in a private breakwater a few miles west of this city. The body was almost nude and what clothing remained was burned. Pelow's face was burned and bruised and his watch had stopped at 3:13 p. m. The watches on the other two bodies had also stopped at about that hour, which shows that the explosion must have oc- curred near that time. Arrested on Suspicion. Bara boo, Wis., Sept. 21.—A young fel- low" giving his name as Christ. Hagen, was arrested in the town of Westfield, yesterday, charged with burglarizing the residence of Charles Thies of S4O worth of clothing.

BOULANGISM KNOCKED OUT.Republicans Will Have a Majority in
the Chamber of Deputies.
Boulangism Receives a Crushing’ Blowat the Election in France. .
The One-Man Rule Not Wanted in ThatCountry at Present.
Paris. Sept. 23—The elections in France jyesterday resulted in a crushing defeat tothe Boualangists, who returned only 21 jmembers and whose entire representation |in the new chamber after the reballoting |will net exceed 36 members. The conser-!vatives elected 131 members and will get30 more. The republicans returned 218 iand will secure over 100 more, making jtheir total strength in the chamber be-tween 325 and 360, against220 or 230 representing thewhole Reactionary-Boulangist coalition.The success of the republicans and the de-feat of the monarchy and Caesarism is ahappy fact. The result of the election putsan end to the Boulangist-Monarchy con-spiracy.
Returns from the elections in this cityshow that the conservatives did not elect asingle member while the republicans re-turned one and the Boulangists four.Reballots will be necessary in thirty-sevendivisions. M. Thevenet, minister ofjustice, has been re-elected but re-ballots will be necessary in thedistricts in M. Constans, minister of theinterior, and M. Yves-Guyot, minister ofpublic works, were candidates. Theirelection, however, is regarded as certain.Among the republicans defeated is MM.Milude. Goblet. Jules Ferry. Milliard andJoubert, while in the districts in whichMM. Milleraud, Passy, Lockroy, Floquetand Barodet, republicans, and MAI. An-drieux, Laisant, Vergoin, Laur, De Su-sine and Naquet, anti-republicani, werecandidates, re-ballots will have to be had.Count Dillon was elected.
Official returns at noon from 536 elec-toral divisions show that the republicanshave elected their candidates in 217 andthe anti-republicans in 153. Re-ballotswill l>e necessary in 166 divisions.

In the other39 divisions, the opposition will probablyelect their candidates. The republicansalso rely on electing the ten mem-bers from the colonies. They willthus hold 354 seats in the new chamber ofdeputies. In official circles a governmentma jority is considered assured. Althoughthe majority will not be large, it will bemore compact and more homogeneousthan that in the last chamber.Later returns show that the republicanshave elected their candidates in 219 divis-ions and the opposion in 156. Reballotswill be necessary in 170 divisions. Theconservatives have elected M. Breteuil,Soubeyan, Mackau, Montgolfierand BishopFroppel.

Remnant of the Civilization of the EarlyInhabitants of America.
Washington, Sept. 23.—Sec’y Nobletransmitted to the director of the geologi-cal survey a report by Special Agent Mor-rison on the condition of Casa Grande(Great House) ruins in Pinal county, Ari-zona, with instructions that necessarysteps be immediately taken to repair andprotect the ruins under the authoritygranted in tbe act of Alarch 2, ’B9. appro-priating 82,000for that purpose. SpecialAgent Alorrison says the front of the mainbuilding measures sixty feet, and its widthis forty-three feet; height of firststory is 13feet 10 inches, second nine feet,and third an 1 faurth stories eight feet re-spectively. The greater part of tbe upperstory has disappeared. The walls are be-tween four and five feet thick and the ma-terial of which they are constructed is al-most indestructible. The concrete is madeof fine gravel, sand and cement closely re-sembling granilithye now used inWashington. The report says that formiies around the mysterious CasaGrande, or great mounds nowhardly distinguishable from the desertsands bear indisputable evidence of hav-ing been at some far remote period theabode of busy industries, and the superi-ority of its architecture, it having outlivedall other structures by which it was sur-rounded. The numerous small apart-ments into which it was divided and the
i elegance of the interior finish all point to; the conclusion that it was the palace of aI king or chief who governed the primative! Americans who inhabited these vast do-mains before tbe Aztec or Toltec.The most ancient of the traditions ofPimas and Pappagoes who yet live herewhere their fathers have lived for cen-turies, alluded to them as “the ruins.”The earliest historic record we have of
! Casa Grande was given by the famous| Spanish caviller and explorer, Cabeza del Baca, who discovered it during his journeyacross the continent, about 1537. Hestates that the Indians then had no knowl-edge of the origin or history ot Alace.
