TOPICS IN PARIS.
Death of Baron de Rothschild —
come for King of Spain.
<B»«cUl tor French CUbl* to Tb» Tribune*
(C»P7rt<ht. 1006. by Th» Tribes* Association.)
Paris, May 27.— The death of Baron Alphonse
de Rothschild elicits from the forty-eight dally
newspapers of Paris the most diverse and Inter
esting expressions of opinion. All call attention
to his munificent charity, so scientlncaHy organ
ized end so discreetly administered. In Paris
alone he gave to the poor upward of $150,000 a
year, and only recently he founded cheap dwell
ings for working families at a cost of $2,000»000,
given outright. Only one journal, Edouard Dni
mont's "Libre Parole," is so carried away by
race hatred as to devote all its four pages to
violent attacks upon Baron Rothschild, raking
up its data from I>ruznont's sensational publica
tions, "La. Fin dun Monde" and "La. Prance
Julve." Henri Rochefort, in "L'mtransigeant,'*
blames Baron Rothschild for having aided
Dreyfus to liberty. The Royalist Catholic
"G&ulols" dwells upon the power of wealth and
relates how the founder of the Rothschild dynas
ty bequeathed Europe to his five sons. The eld
est son established his throne at Frankfort, the
second went to Vienna, the third to Naples, the
fourth to London and the fifth to Paris. To re
main always united was his dying admonition,
and the family escutcheon contains a sheath of
five arrows, each representing one of the found
er's son*, with the device, "Concordia, Industrla,
Integrttaa." The "Gaulois" reproaches Alphonse
de Rothschild for not having prevented France
from becoming a republic, which the "Gaulois"
says he could easily have done after the
co-German War and again on May 16, 1675.
The "Matin" points out that the power of the
Rothschilds each year diminishes when com
pared with the enormous fortunes looming up
In the United States. The Socialist papers all
have a kind word for Alphonse de Rothschild,
who did so much for the Paris poor in such a
sensible, unostentatious, practical way, to use
the words of Meerault Richard In to-day's
"Petite Reptfbliojie."
Dr. Albert Robin states that the death of Al
phonse de Rothschild Is from a medical stand
point an object lesson of the danger of grip,
which Is often fatal, not directly, but rather
from its Indirect consequences. In the present
instance the patient was bearing up well
against the complications of bronchial pneu
monia when suddenly, owing to old age, his
heart gave way, which was the Immediate cause
of his death.
Paris is putting on holiday attire for the visit
of the King of Spain, who will arrive on Tues
day and remain until the following Monday.
Masts painted In the Spanish colors, red and
yellow. surmounted with shields bearing the
royal arms with a golden fleece, are planted
along the principal streets every thirty metres,
alternating with huge vases filled with red and
yellow begonias. Prizes are offered for the best
decorated windows. The principal greenhouses
and gardens in France, Italy and Belgium are
being called on fer red and yellow flowers. Hun
dreds of thousands of scarlet and gold tulips
have come from Holland fer the floral decora
tions, which are being carried out in royal mag
nificence. The electric Illuminations with red
and yellow lamps are being arranged under the
direction of prominent artists. The chateau of
Fontaineblea-u has been ransacked to supply
historic tapestry, furniture, paintings and stat
uary, which are brought to the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs in the Quai d'Orsay, where AJ
phonso XIII will be lodged, and where he
will sleep In the Empire bed formerly used
by Napoleon and afterward by M. Gam bet ta
when the latter was Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Meanwhile the Parisian crowds are amused by
the evolutions of the Piqueur Troude, who,
mounted on a superb horse. Is daily making un
dress rehearsals with gala carriages drawn by
six horses, and outriders that are to be seen trot
ting at a smart pace through Paris streets, while
the splendid specimens of horses, altogether six
hundred, that are to be used for the royal car
riages are being accustomed to noise by the
beating of drums and the blaring of trumpets.
These rehearsals are highly amusing to on
lookers.
It Is noted that the royal programme for the
King of Spain's week contains many military
features that cannot fall to Impress the young
monarch with a good idea of the fighting
strength of France. Thursday will be devoted
to evolutions of Infantry, cavalry and artillery
at the camp of Chalons, wherein the splendid
French field artillery will play a leading part,
the great feature being the demolition of earth
works and a garrison of dummy soldiers by real
artillery fire. On Friday the King will visit the
military academy at St. Cyr, the French West
Point, and a grand carrousel will be given by
squadrons of the cavalry school of Saumur. On
Saturday there is to be a review at Vlncennes
of the garrison of Paris. Among the presents
to be offered to King Alphonso XIII Is a
"surtout de table" In gold and red enamel, com
posed of a hundred pieces, including Jardinieres
and candelabra, all in the Empire style, bear
ing the arms of Spain and the city of Paris.
This is the gift of the municipality of Paris.
Gala performances at the opera and the Theatre
Francalse and a grand procession in the Bols
de Boulogne of three hundred automobiles of
the latest model, arranged by the Automobile
Club of France, supply the more peaceful feat
ures of the King visit, which will terminate
with a review of the French fleet at Cherbourg,
whence a flying squadron of torpedo destroyers
will escort the King on board the royal British
yacht Victoria and Albert, midway across the
Channel.
The theatrical event of the week Is the success
! of the American soprano, Mies Mary Garden, at
I the Opera Comique as Cherubin, in Massenet's
I opera of that name, which was produced at
1 y.-^ra Carlo la February last uati given, en
NEW- YORK DAILY TKTOUNE. SUNDAY. MAY 28. 1905:
Wednesday for the first time in Paris. The
music is In Massenet's lightest vein, with now
and then captivating Mozartlan suggestions.
Mian Garden, travestied as a youthful Don Juan,
gives refreshing vivacity and brilliance to the
opera, the orchestration of which in graceful and
caressing, but containing nothing equal to the
finest passages of "Monon."
Jan Kubelik Is having a decided success here
his violin recitals at the Chatelet Theatre
•n compositions of Mozart, Brahms and Paga
nlnl. assisted by Colonne"s full orchestra. There
was much Interest in the presentation to the
Parisian public by Mrs. EUze Hall, a Boston
virtuoso, of the Instrument called the saxo
phone, at the Salle Pleyel. Mrs. Hall played
admirably upon the saxophone, interpreting
compositions of Vincent d'lndy and Charles
Loeffler, and elicited from the French mußical
critics favorable comments upon the capacities
of an instrument almost unknown in Paris.
The Bois de Boulogne is now at its best, and
for the, first time this year warm sunshine has
made it agreeable to lunch and dine in the open
air. Polo le now in full swing, and among those
present at the tournaments yesterday were Mr.
and Mrs. Bradley Martin, Mrs. Charles Carroll,
Miss Morgan, Mrs. Harjes, Mrs. Singer, Eugene
Higgins, Mr. and Mrs. Maurice UiUermeyer, Mr.
and Mrs. Ogden Armour, the Prince de Beam
and his fiancee, Miss Ross Wynans.

CUBAIM MINISTER TO THE UNITED STATES

A CRISIS IN NORWAY.
King Oscar Vetoes Separate Con
sular Laic — Ministers Resign.
Chrlßtiania, May 27.— King Oscar, at to-day's sit
ting of the Council of Ministers, declined to sign
the law creating a separate consular system for
Norway. The Ministers immediately tendered their
resignations, but the King refused to accept them.
In tendering their resignations the Ministers de
clared they must ask for their immediate dismissal,
as not one of them would be able to sign the King's
veto, which they regarded as injurious to the coun
try. Such a rejection of a Norwegian law unani
mously passed by the Storthing and unanimously
demanded by the Norwegian people, and which the
Cabinet Ministers unanimously approved, could not
be Justified, as it not only did not accord with Nor
wegian interests, but constituted an action on the
part of the sovereign which was opposed to the
constitution of Norway and to constitutional prac
tices.
King Oscar's veto of th« separate consular law
created a great sensation, as possibly involving a
dissolution of the union between Sweden and Nor
way, and perhaps even International complications,
although the best Informed Norwegians decline to
believe that there is any danger of a Russian inva
sion, contending that if Russia bad designs, which
they do not believe she has. ahe would not be de
terred from pressing them by having to light both
Sweden and Norway, and that, therefore, the ques
tion of a dissolution of the union will have no ef
fect from an international aspect.
Th« King's decision was given in the Norwegian
Council at Stockholm. Each member of the Cabi
net urged the King to sanction the consular law.
When all bad spoken King Oscar read a declara
tion indorsing the declaration made by the Crown
3*rlnoe on April 3, that the problem could be solved
only by mutual negotiations. He added that he
could not give his assent to the law because th* ex
isting community of Interests In the consular ser
vice could not be abolished without mutual agree
ment. The existing arrangement, he said, was
established by a resolution of the mixed Council,
and could only be disturbed by the mixed Council,
and bis love for both peoples impelled him to with
hold his sanction.
HUNGARY MAY REVOLT.
Crisis Threatened by Choice of
Fejervary as Premier.
Vienna, May 27.— The political situation In
Hungary has passed within the last few days
into a comparatively acute stage that is threat
ening really serious ronsequences. Count Tisza,
It Is said, will be removed from the premiership
next week, and in his stead will be appointed, if
he can form a Cabinet, General Baron Fejer
vary. formerly Hungarian Minister of National
Defence, an office which he had to resign be
cause of great unpopularity arising from his ex
treme partisanship to the Crown.
The rights guaranteed Hungarians under their
constitution, leading men of that country say,
are upon the eve of being threatened by the
Crown's action, and Hungarians are preparing
to contest these infringements In a manner
Which holds the possibility of bringing serious
results to the mutual life of the dual monarchy.
The Pituution may lead to a state of affairs
meaning practically insurrection, especially as
Baron Fejervary Is thought to be a man who will
carry out the Crown's wishes, lrresDective of
Hungarian national demands. The situation has
not been so threatening as it is to-day since
peace was established between Austria and
Hungary in IS«>7.
