The greatest ex-citement prevails throughout tho town and vicinity. The actual statu of feel-ing can bo bet judged from the fact that many leader of tho popular move-ment, thy best known representatives of tile labor party, started for Bclirium for arms and dynamite for use iigiiust the troops here. A report has reached here that a quantity of dynamite des-tined for (he people of this town was seized while being smuggled across tho frontier from Belgium. Cavalry pickets will bo stationed all along the route of the funeral proces-sion of the victims of the May day mas-sacre, for such is the term applied to the tragedy by the people here. The government sent two delegates here with instructions to make a thorough inquiry into thu causes which led to the disturbance on labor day and into the action of the officers who ordered tho troop to lire on the people. Paijis, May 4. Details of tho labor trouble at Fourmies havo immensely (tightened its political importance. The fact Hiat a woman, several children and eight men were killed on the spot, while twenty were seriously wounded, several fatally, gives tho affair the character of a massucre. The soldiers wera merely exposed to stone throw-ing, I), they replied with successive volleys from rilles, inflicting frightful wouuds on the victims": The houses ex-posed to the lire were riddled, and there is every sign that reckless and wanton inhumanity was shown by the troops. Fourmies is practically in a state of siege. Cavalry patrol the streets and are everywhere greeted with yelj.s of reprobation from excited groups of men and women. The tension of feel-ing may be judged from tho fact that uin military is iiaiieu wi.u cries ot ive Prussia." Thu section.of the left and the social-ist and Iloiilangist deputies will join oi demanding a vole of censure against Constant, minister of the ijterior, as re-sponsible for the slaughter. A majority 01 the right and left approves generally the measure of repression taken by Cou-stan- s throughout ihe country, but will advocate an inquiry into tho conduct of the troops at Fourmies. Parliamentary circles view the affair as' shaking the position of the ministry. Labor circles throughout France are profoundly moved and public meetings here and at Marseilles, Lyons and else-where are being organized to protest against precipitate action of the au-thorities. . It was announced yesterday that the section of the left would join with the socialist and Honlaniist deputies de-manding vote of ccDsuro today against Constans, minister of the interior, on the ground that the latter was respon-sible for tho slaughter of ho men and women uud children shot down by the troops at Fourmies on labor day. Con-stans today, after replying iu explana-tory terms to the questions as to the Fourmies affair and giving his version of the matter, holding that neither the governor nor troops were to blame for the disaster, was astonished to see Roche, a deputy representing the Seventeenth electoral district of the Seine, spring to his feet and fiercely shout "murder!" A tremendous sensation followed, F'inally peace was restored and the chamber voted that Itoche should be excluded from any further part in to-day's session and that he should be de-clared censured by the chamber for the term, ho has applied to the minister of the interior. n i " rt.s iin.T. a. lion uui.iurii upon than Roche again sprang to his feet and shaking his list at those of his associates who have been most active bringing about his proposed expulsion and censure tho angry deputy jelled "you aro a lot of varlets, worthy of your master." This was more than the presiding nflicer could submit to, so he ordered Roche removed by force from the cham-ber. This was eventually done amid one of the wildest scenes ever w itnessed in the chamber of deputies. FOH TUB Kit. II T HOI K VSTEM.

Tho attendance at the labor meeting in Hyde Park yester-day was variously estimated at from 200,000 to 800,000." The procession in connection with the meeting included workers at all trades, and was miles long. John Burns, Thomas, president of tho Dockers' union, Benjamin Til-let- s and Air. Graham, socialist mem-bers of parliament, were among tho speakers. A resolution in favor of a compulsory labor day of eight hours was moved from all the platforms. Tho principal towns of Germany, Holland and Switzerland were yester-day scenes of demonstrations of work-men in favor of tho eight hour move-ment. Iu Hamburg 30,000 persons, a tenth of whom were the wives and sweethearts of the workmen, paraded through the suburbs of the town. After a short meeting in the public park, at which appropriate resolutions were adopted, tiie crowd dispersed and de-voted the reniainderof tho day to music and dancing. No disorder is reported anywhere. in the Belgian mine districts disor-ders still prevail aud many telephone wires were cut and windows smasSed. Meetings were held at Liege, Serang and other places to denounce the action of the Brussels labor union, which sent delegates to tho various centers to delay or prevent strikes. At these meetings it w as decided to disregard the adv icu of tiie union and commence a general strike tomorrow. A state of siege has been proclaimed in the villages around Liege. Lonoon, May 4.

In dors not appear in the judgment of the state do partincnt people lhat tho note of Mar-qui- s Kudini to Manpi's Imperiali, who is now tho representative of Italy in tho I'uited Slates, published this morn-ing, had changed the eituatiun for better or worse, lu the first placo tha note is riot addressed to Secretary lilaino and it is sale to say its tenor would have been entirely different if it had been, nor was it intended to b shown to him. It is regarded here as intended solely for "domestic consump-tion," being lather cleverly calculated to inspire the Julian people with thu idea that their government was pursu-ing a vigorous policy. While taking advantage of the diplo-matic vagueness of expression and form lo prevent the United ISlutts from hav-ing any grounds for resentment, for of course Secretary Hlaine can take no no-tice of the communication as is ex-pressly slated, is not intended for bis petual. There has been no e between the two govern-ments since Dlaiue's uute of April 14tli to imperiali.

Uomu, May 4. The green book on the New Orleans lynching comprises iw outy-fou- r dispatches, dated from March 11th to April wih It shows that the Italian government from the commencement persevered iu asking that criminal proceedings be takeu againsttlm lynchers and that indem-nity be paid to the families of the vic-tims. The expression "brought to jus- - lice," recurs in the ollicial dispatches, as well as in ParonFava's private letters. Thu priiuipal communications have a'ready been published. After Hlitine'a note of April 14, the volume conclude, with a telegram from Marquis di Kudini to Marquis Imperiali, the text of which is as follows: "1 have now before me the note addressed to you by Secretary Hlaiuo April 14. Its perusal produces the ruol painful impression upon me. 1 will not stop to lay stress upon the lack of coniormity with diplotnatio usages displayed1 in. making use, as a"t"' Hlaine did not hesitate to do, of a por-tion of a telegram of wine communis eating to hitr. in strict confidence, iu " order to get rid of a question clearly dc lined in our ollicial documents which alone possess d plonialic value. Nor will I mop to point out reference in this telegram to mine of March 24, that tlm words 'punishment of the guilty' in the brevity of telegraphic lauguago actually signified omy that prosecution ought to be commenced in order that the individuals recognized as guilty should not escape punishment. "Far above all tho astute argument remains the fact that henceforward the federal government declares itself con-scious of what we have constantly asked, and yet it does not graut our legitimate demands. Blaino is right w lieu he makes payment of indemnity to families of the victims dependent upon proof of a violation of treaty, but we shrink from thiukiug lhat he con-siders lhat tha fact of such violation still needs proof. Italian subjects ac-quitted by American juries were mas-sacred iu the prisons of a state without measures taken to defend t hem. What oliier proof dots the federal govern-ment expect of vii lation of a treaty wherein tiie constant protection and security of tho subjects of the contract-in- u uarties is exuressiv simulated? "We have placed on evidence that we have uever asked anything else but the opening of regular proceedings. In regard to this, Baron l ava's first note, dated March 15th, contained even the formula of a teiegram addressed on tho same day by Blaine, under order of President Harrison, to the governor of Louisiana. Now, however, in his note of April 14th, Blaine is silent on the subject which is for us tho main point of controversy. We aro under the gad necessity of concluding that what to every oihe government would appear to bo an accomplishment of strict civil duty is impossible to the federal "It is time to break off this fruitless controversy. Pubiie opinion, tho sov-ereign judge, will know how to indtcats an equiwine solution of this grave prob-lem. Wo have allirmed, and again affirm our tirt right. Let tho federal government reflet t upon its side if it is expedient to leave to tho mercv of each state of the union, irresponsible to for-eign countries, tha efficiency of treaties pledging its faith aud honor to other nations.

All tho gold so far found is gulch gold, and the gravel in which it is found is gulch gravel.

It has al-ready been announced that Germany lias opened negotiations with Kussla with a view to arranging for Russian in the projected commer-cial union. At first sight that appeared improbable but, under the German-Austria- n treaty provisions were made for tioating with other powers recipro-cally, both countries being able to offer Kti-si- a the benefits of differential tariff.
