THE RCRANTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY MORNING. JANUARY 25, 1895. CASIMiR - PERIER SCANDAL Ex-Prcsidcnt uf France to Figure in a Divorce Suit. CAUSE 01 HIS RESIGNATION If Is Intimated Thut Domestic Trouble Was the Cause That Led to the Presi dent's Retirement Virtues uf Mine. Cuslmcr-l'cricr. 9f the United Press. Paris, Jan. 24. The report thait M. Cuslmlr-Perler Is about to apply Tor a divorce is denied with unnecessary warmth and obviously malicious In tent by the Figaro. There tins never teen the slightest excuse for the attack on the character of an Innocent woman Which .the denial Implies. The wife of the ex-Presldent is the aggrieved party, not the guilty one, ac cording 'to all versions of certain events In the domestic life of Casimir-Perler, which now reach the proportions of a widespread public scandal Ills name Is everywhere connected wl'th 'that u' the widow of one of the most prominent Jjubllc men In France. The Insinuation made by the Figaro Will probably cause the whole story to become public in order to establish the jrood name of the recent mistress of the Klysee, if for no othw reason. It Is eald to be due solely to the strenuous ef forts of the mother of 'the president that an open breach was prevented Several weeks ago. The Tecords of the French courts on emch matters are not open to public in spection, but there is good reason for be lieving that no action Is pending at the present moment involving differences between Caslmlr-Perler and his wife. It was atllrmed today, with what truth events will show, that they will go Bouth together In a day or two. Caused His Resignation. Thp real cause of the resignation of yi. Casimir-Perler, cables the New York Herald correspondent, was not ia,t all political, but of a purely private char acter. The ex-president Is on the point of seeking to obtain a divorce from Mme. Caslmlr-Perler, and the causes for this are already of quite a long sianding. As a matter of fact, the llrst steps in the proceedings had already been taken by M. Caslmlr-Perier's law t yers when he became president of the republic. At that time his mother intervened, and her supplications induced him to accept the high office to which he was called In the hopes thait the official and public life he and lime. Casimir-Perler would be forced to lead would put an end to their 'disagreements. But their misunderstandings became Worse, and when M. Casimir-Perier found that the joys of political powf dld not compensate hint for his domes tic annoyances; when his intimate friend, M. Burdeau, died, and when his other friend, M. Raynul, was hounded down by th chamber of deputies be cause of the railway conventions, In a lit of 'anger he resigned. At the palace of Justice it is saW that the divorce Is imminent. I must add that in spite of all this, Which certaJnly forms very valid rea lms for M. Castmir-Perler's act, the tnoat Intimate friends of the ex-president Judge his conduct very severely. The President's llcuutifiil Wife. This is the first the world has heard of the family troubles of Casimir- Pe rier. He was married twenty-two years ago to his cousin, Mile. Helene 'Perier, then but IS years. They have itwo children, ai boy of 14 and a girl of 32. The love of Mme. Casimir-Perier for her home, her children, and her husband has been told . everywhere. Only a short time ago the universal opinion of iher was thus voiced: "Few Parisiennes are more cultured that she who now shares the highest position In France with her husband. She Is one of the very few women oc cupying enviable positions in society against whom nobody has eveir been heard to whteper an unkind, let alone a malicious, word. Her leading charac teristic Is 'her extreme amiability and her readiness to promote the happiness end enjoyment of all around her, more especially those less advantageously Jilaeed than herlf." Mme. Casi'iniir-Perier Is Justly ad mired fur her 'beauty. Her Ihalr ,1s brown, and her eyes of the same color. Her complexion is beautiful, and the somewhat prominent nop? gives an aristocratic stamp to the features. She Is art accomplished hostess, and great things were expected of her by J'arlslan society when her husband went to the Klysee. She Is an well read and as fond of literature as the queen of Italy. She nlaya and slugs, but more for the amusement of her children than for her own pleasure. Still in the prime of life, she looks younger than she really lis. Perhaps this Is due ti her un failing: good temper, for nobody is said to be able to recall a harsh word of Wrae. Caslmlr-Perler. FACTORY V1LLE.

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS. Railway earnings for the second week of January show as a whole a net loss. Kstlmates of the gold likely to be shipped on Saturday range from $3,000, 000 to $7,000,000. Local brokers In Iron and steel report Increased demand for steel rails, plate, and structural material. Some of the Boston raiilroad men are talking of a four-and-a-half hour train between. Boston and New York. Ferdinand Ward Is at work at Oenie seo as assistant to the surrogate's clerk at the munificent salary of $6 per week. The large holdings of wheat by the Fair estate, which is beginning to sell, is regarded as a menace to the grain market. President Depew, of the New York Central, recently said that after a care ful comparison of statistics he found the German railroads were the best managed in the world where they were under government control. Comparing them with American roads, however, he found that In all cases the service was Inferior and the charges higher. English conversatlpm Is at last yield ing to the- point that the Great AVestern has decided to warm Its trains on the American plan and abandon the pres ent archaic plan of foot-warmers. An other radical departure which is her alded In large type in English papers is that the Great Western has decided to experiment in the brand new depart ure of lighting Its cars. Transcontinental freight olfiolals are busy checking rates In accordance with the minimum basis of 50 cents to Cali fornia, terminals and of 55 cents to north Pacific coast points. As already rioted the advances will become effec tive Fe'b. 4. The Southern Pacific seems to 'have won a complete victory In the settlement, as the same rates are effective from New York, Chicago and the Missouri river. Not only does this give a monopoly of the eastern traffic to the Southern Paoillc, but it will also control all the traffic up to points where It Is cheaper to ship to New York or New Orleans than to Chi cago.
