It was difficult to recognize the charred mass
of flesh and rags before us as having recently
belonged to a living cteature. A man's arm
was to be seen on the top of a low house about
100 yards from the scene of the explosion. All
this while the fire blazed fiercely, notwithstand

more powder was known to be stored in the
neighborhood.
As if to add to the horror of the scene, the
Versailles shells kept bursting in the Champ de

lying. Above the roar of the flames would be
heard the scream of the shells as they flew down
from Montretout and Meudon. For a space of
about a hundred yards square all the light
wooden buildings had been levelled with the
ground, and it was the debris that was burning,
with many human beings buried in a fiery grave
beneath.
ANOTHER CRAZr LOVER.
A Man Murders Ills Sweetheart aad Com
mits Suicide.
The Chicago Evening Tost ol Wednesday
says:
At three o'clock yesterday afternoon a Bohe
mian named Martin Benada shot Catharine Yeck
law in the head, and then used the weapon with
instantaneously fatal effect upon himself. Jeal
ousy seems to have been the fiend which
prompted this fearful slaughter. Martin and
Catharine were engaged to be married. On
Monday Catharine announced her desire to see
the great peace procession, but Martin refused
to accompany her. She resented this unkind
ness of her lover by saying tnat it made no dif
ference whether he accompanied her; she could
find another companion. Bhe did find one, aud
in his company saw the procession as she desired.
Her conduct, notwithstanding that it was the
natural result of his uncivil action in the matter,
caused Benada pangs of jealousy, which tnally
led to the perpetration of the ?al crime. The
yonng man's first resolve was the better, though

THE MANITOBA, MUTINY.
A Pandemonium am Shipboard.
The examination in the case of Thomas Walsh
and other seamen of the British brig Manitoba,
who are charged with piracy and mutiny, took
place yesterday in New York
captain Aitred if., uurkeen was the first wit
ness. Ho was examined by ex-Judgo Beebo,
counsel for the British Consul. The captain
deposed that some trouble broke out among
his men on the 1st of May, while the brig was
on its way from Cardiff to this port; he went
among the men, and found that they had re
fused to work: witness inaulred tho reason.
when they said they would work If he
gave them "watch and watch," a nautical term
signifying that they required regular hours of
duty; the captain then told them that they had
mutinied, and that his only remedy was to put
them in irons; went to the cabin and brought
his revolver; on returning to deck, he said t
the men, "I shall put you In Irons;" one of tbo
men, Jeremiah Fitzpatrick, held out his arn.s,
and said, "Here, put me in irons." The other
men then rnshed on witness, and witness
dropped the irons and let go of Fitzpatrick and
then put his hands in his pocket for his revolver.
In the hurry of the moment the revolver weat

the struggle witness received everal sevftj

Cross-examined The men did what th y wra
told up to the 1st of May; had no pa-tk-giar

confidence in one of the men, Mr. Les .er, iWho

A FORGED DECREE OF DITOBCE.
Curious Revelations iu the Bowes nijamr
Case. ,
During the present trial at WasIIngtim of
Congressman Christopher C. Bov en, ion a
charge of bigamy, the defense produced a ! -scree
purporting to show that Mr. Bowel Laal been
divorced from his first wife In this cl . iu ;is05,
and that J adgo Barnard had signed Ine iM.cree'.
Upon subsequent Investigation in th office
of the County Clerk, an entry c( a decree
was discovered divorcing C. C. lowei irom
his wife Frances C. Bowen, tho nan C.
C. and Frances C. having been appj really
written over other names now Lleibld. Au
examination of Judge Barnard's mi notes
showed that he had granted no such decree in
that month. It is said that before County Clei k
Loew came Into office a divorce was granted l
the husband in the case of B wen atraintt
Bowen, tried before Judge B-rearld fu the

of this case having been obtained, the ,naaiae of

THE INDIANS.
Meeting at the Cooper Institute, New
Yarkgjteeca.es of "Little Raven" aad
"BusTalo tloaa."
A very large meeting was held In New York,
at tho Cooper Institute, last night, Mr. Cooper
presiding, at which the Indian delegation was
present.
Little Raven, chief of the Arapahoes, spoke
through the Interpreter as follows:
LITTLE RAVIN'S BPXECH.
I have eome from a long distance to see ray
friends. Years ago, when 1 was at home, they
told me I had a home here and father and mo
ther. I have come now to find them. When at
home in my camp, a letter came from tho
Father at Washington, asking me to come and
see him away in the States. I had been waiting
for it for a long time, and when it came I
did not hesitate a moment but came at once.
I felt that the Father at Washington
would right the wrongs of myself and my
people. In this letter they told me I had many
friends in this country who never saw the
Indians, and who would be glad to see them.
I talked with the chiefs of the other tribes, and
we came here to see you to-night. Before leav
ing I told my young people to remain with the
agency till 1 came home, when I hoped to bring
them good news. I told them I would be gone
forty or fifty nights; they will expect me when
that time Is passed. They think I will look like
a white man when I come back, because I have
been to see the white man in the big house. I
am glad to see so many of my friends here
to-night so many gentlemen, chiefs, and ladies.
I think the Great Spirit has something to do
with bringing you all here to-night. Long ago
the Arapahoes had a fine country of their own.
The white man came to see them, and the
Indians gave him buffalo meat and a horse to
ride on, and told him the country was big
ehough for the white man and the Arapahoes
too. After a while the white men found gold In
our country. They took the gold and pushed
the Indian from his home. I thought Washing
ton would make it all right. I am an old man
now. I have been waiting many years for
Washington to give ns our rights. The Govern
ment sent agents and soldiers out there to ns and
both have driven us from our lands. We do not
want to fight. The white man has taken awav
everything. I want to tell you of this because I
believe if you know it vou will correct th r il.
I think the Great Spirit is looking at all that is
said here, and for that reason I am talking
truth. I want my neoDle to
like white people and have the
same chance. I hope the Great Spirit will put
nusu ueurt into me wnite people that they
may give us our riirhts. When I saw the ol.l
man who invited us to come here to-night, my
heart opened to him. I have thanked the Great
Spirit many times that I have been permitted to
be here. I want to tell you all that is in my
heart, and if I do not it will be because I forget
it, and not because I hide it. We want to travel
in the same road as the white intn. Wfi want
to have his rifle, his powder, and h!s ball to
hunt with. My people are Wf.itln. n the hills
to greet me when I return, .i I w&r,t U rive
Buffalo Goad, of the WacMUs, va next In
troduced and spoke as follows: ,
speech op nurrALO so ad.
I am clad to meet my friends her tn-ntirht.
and I want to have a good strong talk with yon.
I think there must be a great many big chiets
here to-night by ths loetscf this audience. I
have heard that tuere re a great many white
people in the East who knew nothing of the
wrongs which have bie done to our people,
and would like to hear of them, and I am here
vo-nigni to ten a muo of them. I will tell you
a straight story and -nohos. We want houses
built foronr people ta live in, and school-houses
for onr children, u,e latno as white children
have. I havo heard that this house belong to
an uiu seuuBiuan who loves everybody, ana
pities all poor people in the country. (Loud
applause.) I thick we should all be brothers.
1 want you tor help all the Indians. Some are a
little further Hnn, j than we are, and we want to
push ahead tad cet as far as they are. The
white people. baiB dona a good deal of wrong to
our people,' r,d wc wont to have it stopped. If
you are fcrirj. l ''.vthing for us, we want
yon to do U qsick. I 6aw the Commissioner of
Indian A? airs In Washington, and he told me
he knew tli about it, and was going to fix It
np; but i have teard that so long that I
believe it is a lie. But you look
like f.-ood people, and I don't think yon will
fool u, as he has been fooling ns. The Com
misFloner told ts he wanted we should come
and See the white people; that they would do
ns at) wrong; i.nd we have had a very good
tine, and I thisk that time the Commissioner
talked straight. Some white men come among
t'je Indians, and seem to like to live there, just
t o vye have ceme here; and I would like to stay
aerCi too. Since I have been here I have met
seteral gentlemen that I knew in my country,
and 1 am very glad to meet them here, and
ta meet all the new friends that I have made
Lere; and no white man has said anything
bad to ma since I have been here, and for that
I feel very good. I have often heard In mv own
borne that we bad a great many white friends
3n the J sit, and since I have been looking over
this anilence I think it is true. I want you to

GRANT AT LONG BRANCH.
An Affectionate Welcome from Collector
Murphy aud the Sand Flies Forcing the
:ason.
I ova Bkahch, June 1 President Grant and
TS' ty made their entry here to-day. They are
about the only sojourners, for the Branch looks
bit ak and deserted. The President's party con
futed of his wife and children and father-in-law
Dent, besides General Porter, wife, and
son. The train, in which the President had
a special car, arrived at 4'45 P. M. direct
from Philadelphia. Collector Murphy, accom
panied by his wife, was the only friend present
to greet his chief as he stepped upon the plat
form at the depot. The whole party, Including
Mr. and Mrs. Murphy, Immediately took car
riages and were driven to the Presidential
cotiage, which had been put in order by White
House servants who arrived la advance. The
President's bagerage was transferred to the coach
of the Pavilion Hotel, and was supervised by the
hotel proprietor In person. The President has
remained quiet since bis arrival, as it would be
misery to doany thlngelse.considering the present
state of affairs. Collector Murphy dined with
him at about 6 o'clock, and returned to his own
cottage a few doors below the President's house,
l'retident Grant has only six horses here as yet.
These arrived in a special freight car to-day.
He will probably not drive tbeui for a day
or two, as the track on Ocean . avenue
is heavy and rough. The President is
in good health. The anticipated arrival of
the Washington party has failed to briugany
visitors to Long Branch. Only two hotels, both
small ones, are as yet open. A large number of
femalss were seen to arrive by the 0 o'clock
train, but they were houee-cleaners and came to
scrub the Continental. That house and most of
the others will not bo formally opened before
the 15th instant. However, a few more warm
days may force on the season a little earlier.
To-night the beach is cold and foggy; a fresh
sea breeze is blowing in, and the passion Is for
anything else than bathing N. Y. World.
Dr. John B. Gllman, formerly of Chicago,
has received from the Emperor of Germany the
decoration of the iron cross, for distinguished
services rendered la the surgical department of

There is no new featnre in our local iuancial

rule irregularly from 3(&5 per cent. Some
paper is ottering, and wbeu considered reliable
is freely taken at 5( 6 per cent, for long and
short dates.
