A French Officer, Writer and Wiiard Killed by HH Female Assistant. Nf.w York, Dec, IS. The officer of the French army for whose murder at San Luis Potosi, Mexico, Mile. Marie Creville, the thought reader, late of this city, has been arrested, was un doubtedly Arthur Fermaa Guibai, a first lieutenant of French, chasseurs. The pair left New York for Mexico last April, after playing- a eeries of engagements throughout the state. Mrs. Guibai, who, with her two daughters, Hortense, ag-e IS, and Dulu, age 13, and a son, is living here, was married to Guibai in Dublin, Ire land, when hi was principal of a col lege of languages. Tiring of Ireland he went to London, where he became the Lnglish correspondent of a French paper, and adapter from the French for the English stage. As a mem ber of the Savage club, he became a fast friend of David Chrystie Mur ray, the novelist, now lecturing in this country; Henry Irving, the actor; Clement Scott, the critic and playwright, and John Toole, the comedy actor. At that time Verbeck, the wizard, arrived in London from 1'aris, and Guibai joined him and, after learning a good deal of sleight of hand, he perfected a very clever act of mental transference, or ''phys oeronitism," and advertised for a "young alid beautiful girl." Marie, or, as she was then called, "Blanche," Greville answered the advertise ment, and, after three months' re hearsal, the two went upon the road, opening m Liver pool. One of the first to have the performers appear in a private exhibition at his house was the then premier, Mr. Gladstone. The two finally came here and played. In the summer of 1S'.3 Mrs. Guibai and her three children also arrived. Last April Guibai and the woman went to Mexico. Mrs. Guibai not only did not receive a line from Guibai, but he failed to remit even one cent for her support. She supported herself and children by doing needle work. .Mile. Greviile, who is a brunette of considerable beauty, is 26 years of age, witn an abundance of coal black h.iir, which on the stage she wears scattered loosely about her shoulders, always seemed to exercise some strange power over the man whom she i.s now charged with killing, and he has always stool in mortal dread of her, especially when she went into a frenzy of temper. He was insanely foscin ted with the woman, upon whom he spent his money freely. INDIAN LANDS. An Important Amendment to Correct Krniri rffereti by Senator Martin. Washington, Dee. 18. Senator Martin yesterda3r offered an impor tant amendment to one of the pend ing Indian bills in order to correct errors that may have been made in some of the previous allotments. His proposition is as follows: "Where an allotment of Indian lands has heretofore been made in severalty, and any part or portion of such lands has been allotted to any person or persons not mem bers by adoption or by blood relationship of the tribe or na tion of Indians whose lands have tints been allotted, such allotments shall be void. Upon proper proof of such allotments being made to the secretary of th-i interior, it shall be h s duty to cancel such allotments, and in all cases where an Indian mem her of any tribe has not re ceived his snare of the lands, property and money belonging to such tribe and su bject to a 1 lot me 11 1 and d istribu tion, because of the absence of such Indian, or of his being overlooked or otherwise omitted when such allotments and distributions were made, it shall be the duty of the secretary of the interior to aliot to such Indian his or her pro rata share of lands, moneys and prop erty of tribe or nation of Indians to which he may belona- and to which he may hare been entitled at time of such distribution, upon proof being made to tiie satisfaction of the secre tary of the interior that such Indian would have been such land, money entitled to sh ire in or p; opertv had ho been present at time of d istribution.

Currency Reform Bill to be Passed on January 7. The House Committee on Rules so Decides. A SHAHP PHOTEST. The Minority Says it Would Cause Another Panic Washington, Dee. 13. Speaker Crisp and his associates on the house committee on rules determined yes terday on a special rule by which Senator Carlisle's bill for currency reform will be debated and voted on in the house of representatives. The original purpose of securing- a vote before the holidays was given up. Instead of that it was arranged that the general debate should begin to day and continue to the recess. When congress reassembles on January 3, the currency debate will be resumed, the 4th and 5th being given to de bate under the five minute rule. The vote will probably be taken on Mon day. January 7. The minority members of the bank ing and currency committee severely criticize the Carlisle bill. They say "the whole action of tiie party ma jority of the committee was most ex traordinary and not approved by its voting majority. Secretary Carlisle read a part of the bill on the first day of his address to the committee, say ing he had not finished dictating it, and would bring it in when lie li'i ished his address to the committee on the following day, which lie did. It was not again read or in any man ner considered in committee, and an opportunity to consider or amend it was refused to all members. Democrats and Republicans alike. On Saturday at 4 p. m. immediately unoa the close of the examination of Mr. St. John of New York, a motion was made to close the hearing and go into executive session. Upon the attempt of a member of the m nority to make a motion to take up the bill for consideration they were informed by tiie chairman. Mr. Springer, that the Democratic party majority had c ncluded not to submit the bill to the committee for anv motion what ever, but to report it to the house on Monday, and that each mem ber could otfer what amendments he chose in the house. It is the opinion of a number of the most clear-headed and eminent financiers iu the country that if the Carlisle bill was enacted into a law within twenty days that it would precioitate a panic far more severe than that.oT 1&'JJ. as it would compel the forced sale upon the mar ket of nearly $200,000,000 of United States bonds within six months. "The passage of the Carlisle bill may meet some political exigency of which we do not know, but we do know its passage will aggravate rather than relieve the perplexities of the financial situation, especially that of the United States treasury. "The United States legal ten ler notes withdrawn from circulation in case all existing national banks take out all the circulation permitted under the bill would only be 151, 000,000, still leaving $350. 000 to vex the treasury. This would not afford any substantial relief to the constant drain of gold from the treasury. It would make still more conspicuous and thus more urgent the demand for gold upon the treasury, and the notes issued under the bill would make con fusion worse confounded in the cur rency, by adding from one to forty lire more kinds of money to these already existing. "Twice within a short time has the house declared its unalterable op position to allowing state bunks to issue currency notes once on June G, isle', by a vote of 84 for to 1 1 S against it, and again under the leadership ntrainst state banks of the rrallant and versatile gentleman from Illinois, the Hon. William M. Springer, on June 0, 1S'.)4, by a vote to rep al the ten per cent tax of 102 for to 17:i against. Therefore, we protest acrainst again consuming the time of the house in a profitless discussion of that objection able section of the Carlisle bill. Fi nailv we are of the opinion it is not safe for the house to enter upon the line of the legislation proposed until some bill is brought before it that has received far more attention than the Carlisle bill, and we recommend it to be indefinitely postponed." The report is signed by the six Re publican members of the committee. Pie crust made with Dr. Price's Cream Eakint' Powder is simply superb. ISTHMIAN CAXAl Bl'ILDISG. Ttxo Senate Ilevotes Another Iay Ducnssins; tbe Projert. Washington, Dec. IS. The senate was called to order yesterday by Vice President Stevenson. A communica tion from Secretary Gresham relative to the continuation of the Bureau of American Republics was referred to the committee on appropriations. Mr. Hill of New York presented a resolution calling upon Secretary Carlisle for a copy of the income tax regulations, which was passed. The senate then resumed consider ation of the Nicaraguan canal bill and Mr. Teffer of Kansas addressed the senate. lie did not believe that the country was in a condition to buy the canal and issue bonds for its payment- The constitution did not authorize the lending- of money for the purpose of forwarding a private enterprise, which was what was pro posed to be done by the present bill. It would be better for the government to build the canal Mr. Squire of Washington followed with a hearty indorsement of the canal project, which, he said, would be of greater importanc to the Western world than the Suez canal is to the Eastern. At this point Mr. Turpie of Indiana, ort'erei an amendment to the bill which, was ordered printed. The amendment provides that before aiy proTiia oi the act are enforced the president is to appoint three compe tent engineers, two of them from the engineer corps and one from civil life, not interested in the company, to make a survey and estimate of the expense of construction of the canal on the route proposed. Mr. Turpie then proceeded to address the rr?nate on the pending bill. ap pending the conclusion of Lis re marks, the senate, at 4:55 p. m., went into executive session and at 5:07 p. m. adjourned. Canal Commission. Washington, Dec. IS. Senator Vilas yesterday g-ava notice of an in tended amendment to the sundry civil appropriation bill, to provide for an international commission to investi gate and report upon the feasibility of a canal large enough to accommo date ocean going- ships between the Atlantic ocean and the Great lakes, to consist of three members, to be ap pointed when Great Britain shall appoint a like number for Canada. We Are Done With Ulaefleld. Washington, Dec, 18. United States Minister liaker yesterday cabled Secretary Gresham that the Mosquito Indians had formally in corporated their reservation with Nicaragua. This was very welcome news to the state department, as it marks the end of the Pluefields diffi culties which have harassed the de partment for nearly a year. Reorganizing the Army.

The men then clinched, but broke way. These tactics were repeated, but directly the men were separated, Craig drove Pritchard into the ropes. When the latter came up again Craig led with his right, landing a smash ing blow on Pritchard's jaw, and flooring him. Pritchard remained down until he was count -d out, Craig winning the figdit in less than two minutes. Andy Bowen Laid to Kest. New Obleans, La,, Dec. 18.

Two Bound for S Francisco Go Down With All on Hoard. San Francisco, Dec. IS. That the steam colliers Montserrat and Kewee veali have been lost at sea with all on board is now considered almost a cer tainty.

The Montserrat, Captain Black burn, carried a crew of twenty men, and the Kevveeveah, Captain Jenkins, carried a crew of thirty men. From reports received to date it is positive ly known that at least four vessels were wrecked during the gale. Were Hurriedly Married. Jasesville, Wis., Dec 18.
