I' tills Oct. ". There nromoro tlinn 1,000,000
persons within onrsbut of my hotel, slid as I
begin (0 wrttu tills despatch their hoarse throats
are nk'nlti giving voice to that strange, frenzied
try of hero worship in the Russian Emperor
passes mi his way to tho Thelire fiattcnls. It
hs been another day of matchless pageantry
. and mighty ontliiisinsm. Whuthcr tho facts
j-j.tify It or not, the French people bcllero they
arc iiH tir.itliiK thn birth of n new era for
1 'r.iticu nml for Europe. They arc determined
tluit the whole world thnll rceognlro tho oc
casion a; nn event of the first mngnllude In
human history. They huvo succeeded, If one
ma Judge by the Impression made In all the
(.il-itaU of Europe by yesterday's stupendous
demonstration.
Even tho jealous and hypercritical press of
Englund Unds Itself compelled to accept this
wedding of two great nntlona as un cpqiih
making union. France considers herself tho
brnle of Russia, and the la celebrating tho niar
rlaie least in a manner which pleases her. She
is-nures with high disdain nil envious sutges
Hum that sho ts tho vassal of her Muscovite
brldreroom or that u dlrorcu Is posslblo between
nations Joined by such bonds.
I make thnso observations to show that the
Infectious spirit of the hour has, for the time
being at least, utterly silenced tho suspicions
, that this is not a lovo match on the part of Rus.
i! si. The world has already learned that tho
j Russian Emperor Is a man of few words and ho
Is not nn enthusiast. His public utterances
tilnce he set foot on French soil on Monday have
been markedly more cordial than his responses
to the Austrian uud German Emperors on Ills
recent visits.
Yesterday afternoon lie crave attention to he
more serious object of his present mission. Ho
had n lone Intervlow with M. Hanotaux, Minis
ter of Foreign Affairs, who is cenuiuely a pmoini
yiiitii to the Russian Government. Tho latter
conferred upon tho Minister tho Grand Cross
of St. Alexander, the highest Russian decoration
except the order oi bt. Andrew, which is con
ferred only on sovereigns. Other conferences
have taken place to-day, and while tho pcaca
note Is not so strong in the exchange of civili
ties as was tho case in Vienna and Ilreslau,
there has been absolutely nothing to justify tho
French Impression that a more aggressive
policy of mutual aggrnudizement is un
der consideration. There Is no doubt
that political decisions of vast importance will
be taken bufore the Czar departs on Friday, but
thero will be no announcement of them yet.
Meantime the millions which inundate Paris
are content with the plcav.ires of tho hour.
I Thoy applaud everything, end their tlrelessness
j and L'ood nature are marvellous. Especially
ban the popular heart been touched by the Em
peror's visit to-day to tho tomb of SI. Carnut
,' and his words of sympathy to the widow and
J sons of the martyred President. They wcro
Ik significant words also. Ho paid the tribute, lis
n said, according to the promptings of his own
B heart a well as In his capacity as the head of
I the Russian empire. It was farnot, he declared,
who laid the foundations of the present
W friendship between France and Russia and w!,
did more than any one else to bring uhout the
union between the two nations. Ho placed a
wreath of doners upon the coffin, saying that ho
would later rculaco It with n more enduring
memorial.
It ha been u trylngdny forlhe Imperial tarty,
as the routine account of the various functions
will show. Hut It is not tho celebration, but tho
people who havo tome to celebrate that are
mere Impressive. Itv.nstlmo thut tho safety
salve of Franco una opened. It is linpo-s.blo
for thee of cooler blood to understand this ex
hft -ties- cMIiusl-isi, till lerrlfie exi itement
mch apparently burns wlthoutdcstriiylng and
in its present manifestation Is harmless.
The vast Illumination which was repeated to
n'.sht typif.es the stionc spirit of the millions
who arc watching It. The wholo city Is aflame.
tut to-morrow there will be no sign of the ron
flsjratlon. and presently life will go on again In
the ordinary routine.

admiration of the presents, at tho sntno tlmo
thnnklng tho maidens with that Peculiar grnco
which has already won tho hearts of all
Parisians,
The procession was re-formed nt 4 o'clock

tho crowds. The niuto to tho mint wns thronged

Upon reliable authority tho story Is told of
the Cznr that while tn conversation ntlunehein
this afternoon upon tho subject of yesterday
nnd to.dn's events bis Majesty dci-lared that
he bad been In Austria. Germany, and England
In tho course or his present tour, but nowhere
had he seen such enthusiasm ns in Frnnce. "I
expected a magnificent reception," bo Is re
ported t" havo said, "but this surpasses any
thing I rnnld rosslbly Imagine."
The Paris newspapers ilevolo columns of snaco
to articles on the reception nf thn Czar, and are
unanimous In declaring that the llth of October
will leave Indelible memories upon the hearts of
Frenchmen anil Russian'. The homage of the
people to the Czar, tno paners say, was warm,
yet full of dignity and M-lf-cnnnilence. All of
the papers express satisfaction with the ipeeches
innile by the czar at Cherbourg and at tho
Elysee Palace.
The Honrii says: "The Czar's spontaneous
visits to the Presidents of the b'enato and
the Chamber nf Deputies Indicate his Majesty's
formal ,-trceptani.o of the forms and conse
quences of the republican regime." T)-e tiappr
adds: "Cnnclusixo wonlsnnd di-flnito nets have
already been exchanged, and probably they
will tie completed at Chalons, bui they nro
already enough to convince Europe of our
union." i
The Eclair mentions tho fact or the Czar's
Illness at the opera pertormanro last n'gbt bv
s-aylng Hint his Majesty was slightly ind. -posed
lis a result of fatigue, the day huving jcen one
of grr-it exaction and xcitcnicnt to him.
Alter their visit to the Ai-mlemy the Czar nnd
Czarina proceeded to the Hotel do VUle. whero
M. Uuudln. President of I tin Municipal CoU'--cil,
received them. M. Hamlin reail an ad

welfare of their MalesUes, and rLiiuering nn
behalf of thu city of Paris the hnmagi-(ilctiiieil
by traditions, love of country, nnd tnlth in the
destinies of tho two great friendly nations.
The Cznr rep-led to M, lirailm's address,
briefly thanking him as the teii-i"-,.hiaUvi of
tl o city fur the good wishes express,,it. After

has written n letter to Sir. Thomas Edward E).
lis, member of Parliament for Merionethshire
and first whip of the Liberals, resigning tho
leadership of the party. Tho reason slvcn for
his lordship's teslgnatlon Is that ho disagrees
with Mr. Gladstone nnd other leading Lib
orals regarding the proper poller to bo adoptid
on thu Eastern question.
Lord Itosobery's letter was mndo puhtlo late
to. night. It Is dated athlssoat, Dalnicny Park,
Linlithgowshire, Oct. 0. In the communication
his lordship says:
"Tho recent coursenf ovents makes It neces
sary to clear tho air. I find myself In apparent
difference with a considerable mass of tho Lib
eral party on tho Enstcru question and in sumo
conflict with tho opinion uf Sir. Gladstone, who
must necessarily always exercise matchless au
thority with the party, whllo scarcely from any
quarter do I receive oxpliclt support.
" This situation, except asregatds Sir. Glad
btuur. Is not altogether new, hut In saying this I
complain nf nn one. nnd regret, only that I
should appear to dlvldo the energies and try tho
faith of the Liberals.
"This question, however. Is nbovo and beyond
personal considerations; nnd when I speak,
which I do this week, I must speak my mind,
without reference to party.
" Under these circumstances It Is best for the
rarty and for myself that 1 speak not as a
lender, but as a free man.
"Consequently I beg to notify yon that tho
leadership of tho party, so far as I am con- !
cerr.ed. Is vucnnt, nud that I resume my liberty I
of action. I can only feel the deepest grntltudo j
I and regret at parting from you and those who I
liko you havo given me such loyal cooperation I
under circumstances so difficult." J

.TArKRONVIl.l.i:. Flo,. Oct. 7. Tho I'opocrats
In Florida aro much disappointed over tho re
eult of Tuesday's election. They predicted a
mnjorlty for Gov. Uloxhnm over Gunby, Hep.,
und Weeks. l'op.,,iif from '.'3,000 to 25.000. It
Is now doubtful If It will reach 1S.000. Tho
I'opocrats mndo tho mostconiplutocnnvns,s oier
made In Florida, Thoy hail two Bets of speak
ers, who covered the State completely. The
Republicans nt llrst hnd two tickets In tho field,
and with such n condition know- that victory
was Impossible anil made little effort to qualify
tho voters until thu breach was healed, and
then they had no money. Their canvass was
not systematic, only few plnces holng visited
from time to time, but with such conditions
Gunby shows up well.
Republicans nro In high feather nnd Popo
crats nro frightened over thu outlook for Con
gress. Tho Second district. In which Davis,
Dem Is ranulngngnlnst Stripling, Hep., and D.
G. Ambler, Gold Iloni., Is su doubtful fur the
I'opocrats that already the Republicans lire
making nctlxe preparations for a red hot cam
paign. There Is nlso talk nf fusion between
gold men nnd Republicans. Fusion would
surely bent Davis, for the district has always
been close, Tho llrst district, embracing the
western part of tho State, wheru the llnurhon
element lives. Is sure for Bparkmnti. Popocrat,
Tho Australian ballot law has developed a

requesting lilm' to speak ntn llryan and Sewall

ATLANTA, Ha., Oct. 7, Reports to the (Vm.lf.
Iiilfon from all parts of the Slato Indicate that
Atkinson's mnjorlty for Governor in to.dav's
election will exceed M.'S.OOO, with thn possibility
that his malorlty will gu over 40,0(10. 'Tho
Populists say that tho I'opocrats havo lost
litavlly and that Atkinson's majority will bn
less than that nf two icars ago, when hu had
k'4,000. It la admitted that Atkinson's majority
will bo tho lowest un tliu Stale Pupocrutlo
ticket.
Atkinson's loss, ns compnred with the re
malndcr of tho Statu ticket this year. Is nt.
trlbutod to scleral complications. In thn
llrst plneo his opponent, Wright, mndo
n slgoroiis personal cnmpalgn against

Atkinson having mndo his campaign in fuvorof
local option and Wright having been nominated
I by thu Populists on iiplutfom uf enforced Stato
prohibition.
Cnder tho local-option law, 10(1 of tho I,T7
counties In tho State bnvo adopted prohibitum
principles, nnd thu Popoerutlc campaign was
bused on tho adoption of local opllon,
Slnnv nf theextteino Prohibitionists voted for
Wright un the appeal tn prohibition sunliiitent,
and this nccouiiis In purl for Atkinson not, re
ceiving ns heavy a votu as thu remainder uf the
State ticket. Wright Is a prominent l'rolil
bitlonlst and made an active campaign on that
Hue.
SInny prominent ministers of ths Stale, how
ever, openly espoused tho cause of local option
as tho best method of dealing with tliu prolil- j
bltlou question, regarding It as unfurtuiinto
that It had been mndo a political issue.
Reports from every part of tho Stato show
Increased majorities over (ho vote of two ) ears

There was no Republican ticket In tho field
to-day.
In tho election of two years ago there wero
about JM.tmo votes cast, of which lld.000 were
Populist. A large part uf tho Populist vote then
was mane up of Confederate veterans, whom
Gov. Atkinsun hud olTendeii hr deleatlng their

return to the support of the Democratic ticket

Thu great northwest province, which pro- '' j SI' fi

need wheat for next season's crop. Tho parched uJSi"
condition or the great wheat fields Is said to be r? km.
terrible, nnd famine Is threatened In several f IS' j
districts. Il wns known months ago that the pt M' i
Indlnn wheal crop was very short, but no one Si i
stippiised the deficiency was ns great as recent ' 3 I

As tho Indlnn harvest scasnn Is In Slarch, ' 'y
and this wheat will land thero more than K Ii l(J
two months before any new wheal will be avail- i iff, f j
able. It Is highly probable that other cargoes (Ml u'
will find a market in thn same direction. Tho IJI

and thu colonies had to look to California for ill ii
