The Majority of the Anarchists recently expelled from France have arrived in London and may be teen and heard nightly at a small clnb off Tottenham court road, which is the headquarters of the Eeds in this country. The Government, though appealed to by Its own supporters in Parliament, made no effort to prevent these revolutionary gentry landing on these free shores, Home Secretary Mathews professing the utmost confidence that they could be effectively dealt with by the ordinary laws should they attempt to translate words into deeds in this country. Scotland yard would have liked to keep them out of England, and having been balked of its desire, is now anxious to obtain some excuse for putting them under lock and key. The trial of the "Walsall Anarchists af forded proof that agents provocateurs are no longer a class peculiar to France, Germany and other benighted foreign countries. Americans may therefore, with reasonable confidence, expect to hear soon of dvnamite plots and possibly of cxplosionsin London. This assurance is based upon information derived from the same source that enabled Tiie Dispatch to predict the discovery of the 'Walsall conspiracy. Precautions Taken by Detectives. Scotland Yard is already ostentatiously "taking precautions." Extra guards have been placed on all public buildings, admis sion of strangers to the Houses of Parlia ment is hedged ronnd with greater restric tions than ever, and the few discreet jour nalists who are admitted or manage to get behind the scenes are "reading up" the his tory of the Irish-American series of dyna mite explosions, and studving the plans of Government offices and palaces. The closing of the German frontier against emigrants from Russia has hrd the effect of greatly reducing the number ot pauper aliens arriving in this country. The favor ite route has always been by way ot Ham burg, the cost of transport from that port to London being only 6 shillings per head. Bussian Hebrews desiring to get to this country must in future take passage direct from Russia to Rotterdam or some Baltic port, and the cost will be nearly 20 times as much as via Hamburg, which is a prohib itory sum to a majority of such would-be emigrants. Considered a Pernicious .Action. The receiving agents in East London are of opinion, however, that the decrease will be only temporary, and that the ultimate effect "of Germany's action will be per nicious to this country, because the kind of emigrant who has heretofore landed here witb a few pounds in his pocket will spend all his money on the way and arrive abso lutely destitute. The Evening J.Tws and Post, a Tory paper, which has always given much attention to this subject, announces to-day, as a result of inquiries made bv its reporters, that the United States will be the only gainer by the closing of the German frontier. The increased cost of getting to this country will compel many emigrants intending to push on to America to remain here. As it is, many of those who start out with the intention ot crossing the Atlantic alter their minds when they get to London, but these people figure in the Government returns as having gone on to America, so that it is evident the influx of aliens taking up permanent residence here has been much larger than the official rec ords have indicated. Altogether, the outlook is not pleasing to Englishmen, and it fills the Evening JVicj and Post with gloomy forebodings. An Extra Lone Easter Holiday. Although scarcely any progress has been made this week with public business, Par liament is to have a longer Easter holiday than usual, an arrangement which affords further proof of the extreme reluctance of the Government to take in hand the Irish local government bill. Mr. Gladstone has been in his place every day this week, and has virtually taken the leadership of the House out of Balfour's hands. For some reason best known to himself the grand old man advocated lenient treatment of the Cambrian railway di rectors, who were brought to the bar of the Houe for breach of privilege on dismissing a man who gave evidence before the royal commission, and the offenders were conse quently let off with an admonition from the Speaker, instead of being sent to the clock tower, as the Radicals eagerly desired and ureently demanded. That was Thursday night, and yesterday afternoon the Radicals attended for the re sumed consideration ot the small holdings bill in a very sulky mood. Bnt the grand old man quickly put them into the ben of good humors by a brilliant little speech, in the course of which he covered Mr. Joseph Chamberlain with ridicule, and left that honorable renegade writhing with rage. A Bill That Is Practically Useless. It has been pointed out in The Dispatch that the bill in question, which seeks to re vive a- ciass or small ireenolders or yeomen in the country, is practically useless, unless land owners be compelled, where necessary, to sell the 1-nd required for division into small holdings. Mr. Chamberlain yester day spoke in favor of the insertion of com pulsory clauses, but said he would not vote for them if the Government would not ac cept them. Mr. Gladstone had no difficulty in demon strating the contemptible position thus taken by Chamberlain, and in contrasting it with his former protestations of Liberal ism. The exquisite irony and scathing sar casm with which the grand old man be labored his traitorous lieutenant has proba bly never been surpassed in the debating annals of the House of Commons. Cham berlain felt the chastisement the more keenly because the Tories laughed at his discomfiture quite as loudly as the Lib erals, and evidently enjoyed it as much. Yet when the division took place he had to go into the same lobby with the men who had just been making merry at his expense, with men whom he really despises, and with men who actually detest him with an abiding hatred. Mr. Joseph Chamberlain's career during the past six years would afford an instruc tive subject for a school book upon the dan ger of reckless ambition, or it mignt fitting Iv illustrate a disquisition on tho folly of not looking before one leaps.

They Are Becoming Quite Frequent In and Abont London A Woman Who Vented Her Spite on the Bepoters Some Odd Scenes. BY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH. London, April 9. It is not a very infre quent occurrence in London police courts for infuriated prisoners to attempt to assault the presiding magistrates. Mr. Montague "Williams, who sits in one of the East End courts, often has boots th -own at him, and upon one occasion he received a severe blow In the face from a missile. The habit se:ms to be spreading. Last week the newspapers reported a case in which a disappointed litigant kicked, in open court, his lawjer, for which he may have had some excuse, and assaulted the re porters, for which there could be no justi fication. Yesterday a scene even moe lively was enacted at the Blackburn Quarter Sessions. Pat Brady and Maggie Murphy, accused before the Recorder of robbery, "felt called upon protest with emphasis cgiinst the chanre. Bradv threw his belt at the prose cutor, attempted to jump out of the dock witn tne avowed intention ot Killing ine Recorder, and had to be held by seven policemen while handcuffs were being pnt upon him. Maggie resented these proceedings by screaming and cursing loudlv, and wound up by throwing her wooden clogs at the un offending reporters, crying, "Take that, you scribblers!" She also had to be hand cuffed, and it would have been well for the decorum of that court if the loathsome couple had been gagged. Both prisoners were sentenced to seven years' penal servi tude, and Brady was hauled down stairs to the cells, singing, rather inconsequentially, "She was as beautiful as a butterfly and as proud as a queen." I0VE -AKIHB OF B0YA1TT. Koumanla's Crown Prince Cared of One Love and on With Another. tBT CABLE TO THE DISPATCH. London, April 9. The objections of the Crar having been overcome by the joint efforts of the King of the Belgians and tne Countess of Flanders, the forthcoming be trothal of Crown Prince Ferdinand of Rou mania and Princess Mary of Edin burgh is semi-officially announced. Courtly chroniclers are waxing -eloquent over the match. "We are told that "Prince Ferdinand, after once meeting Princess Mary, in Germany, was so deeply impressed by her youth, and beauty that all his later travels in search of a wife only confirmed his attachment. The Prince has already displayed high military, political and administrative gifts, and It is enomrh to look at his blue eves, his tall. slim figure and fair hair, to be assured of his goodness of heart, amiability and gaiety of disposition." As to the Princess it is claimed for her that in addition to being young and beauti ful, she is amiable and accomplished, poeti cal and charitable, and ready to sympathize with the humblest of her future subjects. Roumanians are prepared to show their ap preciation of this pair of paragons by giv ing them a handsome allowance and building them a fine pal ace at Jassy, where they will have to reside after marriage. Prince Fer dinand is a young man who, a year ago, set the diplomats of Europe by the ears by wanting to marry one of Queen Carmen Sylva's maids of honor. Disappointment cent the Queen into hysterics and broke the maid's heart. Prince Ferdinand was said at the time to be deeply affected, but and his recovery has certainly been rapid and complete. Mademoiselle Varesco is at present in Rome. BAEONESS DELLAKD'S SLATES Laughs From Sheer Nervousness Just Be fore His Bead Is Severed. Paris, April 9. Louis Anastay, the ex-sub-lieutenant who murdered his bene factress, the Baroness Dellard, on Decem ber 4 last, was executed in the Place de laRoqnette at C:10 o'clock this morning. In 'accordance with the French custom the condemned man had no knowledge that he was to meet his death this morning until the prison officials entered his cell and told him to prepare for execution. An astay walked to the guillotine without dis playing any great amount of nervousness; in fact, his bearing was firm. He was very pale, however, and it was apparent that he had steeled himself against tne ordeal. He laughed as he reached the guillotine, but his laughter was caused by nervousness and not by any lack of appreciation of his awful position. Arrived at the place of death the preliminaries were quickly com pleted. Anastay embraced the ' chap lain, who had administered the last rites of the church to him, and bade him farewell Deibler ("Monsieur de Paris"), the executioner, met with not the slightest resistance from the prisoner. The father of Anastay claimed his body, with the view of having a special examination of the head made, to prove that the murderer had suf fered from cerebral troubles. The authori ties, however, refused to permit a special postmortem examination to be held, DURHAM. COLLIERS MUST LOSE. A Game Strnlo to Win a Strike Ajalnst Too Great Odds. CBY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH. J London, April 9. The Durham colliery dispute seems as far from settlement as ever, but owing to the slack demand for coal the disturbance to trade ha,s not been so great as was at first expected. Neither side shows any disposition to give way, though the position of the men grows daily weaker. The colliers of Great Britain have this week met and confirmed their decision to work only five days weekly, in order to re strict the output, but this effect upon the Durham will be infinitesimal. Next week there is to be another ballot, and the proba bilities are now that the men will take more kindly to the suggestion that the delegates be empowered to treat with the employers.

New Orleans has suffered greatly from fires, par ticularly cfotton fires, during the last few days. Sunday was the day of the big ootton fire which destroyed four presses. On Thursday a second fire destroyed the Kahn cotton pickery. Friday Chief O'Connor, the head of the fire department, declared that the fires were not accidental, but of incendiary origin, and announces that two other cotton fires had broken out at the Shipp, Virginia and Terrell presses at the same time as at Kahn's pickery, but .had been fortunately extinguished without seri ous losses. On Monday also it seems two fresh fires broke 'out in the Shippers' press, whioh had been extinguished by the employes. An, in vestigation showed that holes had been bored in the doors of the cotton presses last night., and highly inflammable material thrust into them, but the perpetrators were frightened away before they could accom plish their purpose. The same thing had been done at the Orleans cotton press, and it was evident that incendiaries .had. at tempted to set fire to the building.

Special Solomon Solomons, a Russian Hebrew, died In the Pennsylvania Hospital yesterday from scalds received at a Russian bath pat ronized by the poorer class of Hebrews at 624 Lombard street Solomons and several companions visited the place- on Sunday, and were in the steam room. The steam is generated by the primitive method of thro iring water on stones placed in an oven at one end of the apartment. A gust of the scalding 'steam poured through the oven door, and, although the bathers had been warned to keep to the benches provided for them along the wall at some distance from the rush of steam, Solomons started across the room directly in the path of the scalding vapor. He was horribly scalded about the head and body. '"William Kline, the proprietor of the place, and one of his attendants were ar rested, but afterward discharged. Shoo!

BT BIRDS An Indiana Prospector's Bare Tale From the Salton Lake NothlDS Said About BIsBlnshlne When He Tells It-Cheeks Probably Tanned by Western-Lire. Indianapolis, April 9. SpeddLI Mr, Ephraim Carter, of this city, who has for th past seven years spent winter months pros pecting through the region now famous for the suddenly formed "Salton Lake," tell many curious stories of his experience there, but none, perhaps, stranger than this? one: The action of the waters in the overflow that resulted in the noted Salton Lake has scooped ont of the loose, friable soil of the valley many saucer-shaped depressions, varying from 40 to 50 yards in diameter, The subsidence of the lake and evaporation of the water has left manv of the basins in- crusted with salt of a dazzling whiteness. "While Mr. Carter was watching the-flightt over one of these natural saucers of a flock of "sand swallows" a small bird indigenous to the valley, about the size of the English, sparrow he was surprised to - see at leastu one-half of the covey fall as though shofcl Mr. Carter and his companions picked up 23 dead or dying birds, all of which had their, feathers more or less scorched, while some-' had been completely cooked. I The party were almost ready to accep ccepk who, the theory of their Indian guide. ascribed it to "spirits," when the drifting of- the smote from their camp hre over the cen-, ter of the basin solved the mystery. It could then be seen that the sun's rays wera reflecting from the concave surface of tha-salt-lined basin in such a manner as to form, a focus ofintense light and heat at a height1 Iof about 150 feet.
