The fiaudulent suear bonds have again come to the sur face in a new de.il, this time in Stanton county. Last December, just before the "roasting process" expose, one of the town ships in that county voted $10,000 in bonds to the American Sugar company. When the expose of the fraudulent sugar making was made, tho township officers did not issue the bonds, nor were they called for. It was believed that was the end. To day, however. Nelson II. Spencer, county attorney of Santon county, came down and had a consultation with the attorney general and the auditor of state. It scents that an agent of the sugar company had recently gone to the township officers and induced them to issue script to the amount of $16,000, and issue and sign bonds to an oqual amount, refunding tliis scrip. The sugar meuse cured possession of the bonds and immedi ately disapueared. Mr. Spencer came down to prevent the registration by the auditor of 'the bonds, which have not yet been presented, claiming that the entire transaction was fraudulent. Mr. McCar thy wiil not register them, so" they will be worthless if offered in the market. CRIMINALS AT FREDsONIA. FRHDONIA, Kan., Feb. 12.

The journal having been read Mr. Bou telle, of Maine, asked unanimous consent for its approval, but objections came from the Democratic side and a roll call was made necessary. The journal was ap proved yens 119, nays 1, the speaker counting seventy-two Democrats present and not voting. The debate on the rules was then con tinued. Mr. McCreary, of Kentuckv, argued against and Mr. McCutcheon.of Michigan, for the adoption of the rules. Mr. Kerr, of Iowa, supported the code and Mr. Hooker, of .Mississippi, opposed it on constitutional grounds. Mr. Buckalew, of Pennsylvania, (the one Democrat who has voted when pres ent upon every question) criticised the proposed rules because theytended to sti fle adequate and necessary debate Mr. Anderson, of Kansas, while sup porting tue proposed code, acknowledged that he had t-ken advantage of the old rules to filibiiaUr against ihe considera tion of the Union Pacific funding bill. He was not ashamed of his action, because be believed that bil' to be a gigantic fraud; but he thought th time had come when filibustering should be eradicated. 1 he debate was further part'Cipated in for the Democ-i c hide by Messrs. Cum mincs of New York, Chinmau of Michi gan and Caruth of Mcntucky. Mr. Henderson, of Iowa, said that for the last few weeks the country bad wit nessed .scenes unequaled in the history of the government The sneaker of the house backed by every Republican member on the floor, had been making a stand for the rights and liberties of the peonle That stand had brought on scenes exceeding in monstrous proportions, in all except bru tality, any that had ever occurrei in the national capitol. Only one picture stood out stronger in history, and that was when a Democratic club laid the immortal Sum ner on the floor of the senate. The speaker, rising to the situation like a granite moun tain, had met tne occasion and caimly done the duty of the hour. Applause on the Republican side. After one of these stormy scenes he (Henderson) had heard a gentlemen ou the Democratic side say to another: "Did you bear tne rebel yell?" Let the gentlemen understand here, now and forever that the northern rdoughface was an animal of tue past. Applause. Ltt them understand thecountry had pasd through a fiery furnace which had eliminated the northern doughface. Gentlemen on the other aide undertook to control this coun try whether tney herein 'he majority or in th- minority: they could no: do it. Ap plause ou Republican side. The Republi cans meant business and it was to do that business calmly, earnestly, bravely and patriotically, that tney were here.

Laughter on Republican .side No gentleman bad dared outside or inside or the chamber to insnlt Mr. Reed when he occupied a sal on the floor. Was this chivalrous? Was it brtve for men to -and in trout of the desk and hurl at the speaker epithets they would uot have dared to utter had he bten on the floor Mr. Buchanan, of New Jersey, and Mr. Walser, of Massachusetts, followed in de fense of the speaker5 course, and then the bouse took a recess until S o'clock, the evening session to bs for debate oa tbs rules.

Governor Foraker Do you remember getting a dispatch in October, reading like this: "Trust in me, Charley, and I will stand by you?" General Grosvenor From whom Governor ForaKer Never mind who sent it. General Grosvenor No, sir, I have no recel lection of anything of the sort. It is not a very fair way to treat a witness either. If you have any information you should say who from. I think you got your information from some constitutional liar. Governor Foraker I hare got most of my information from you. Charles L. Kurtz, secretary to Governor Foraker, testified that September SO, the morning after the Music nail speech, he had a conversation of a surprising nature with Colonel A. C, SandH, of Cincinnati, in the governor's office. Sands spoke to wit ness in a way that impressed him with the belief he knew fully of all that was back of the ballot box bill. He said there was a contract behind the bill; that he (Sands) had been sent to Washington to see cer tain congressmen in behalf of the bill.

The Duke Prevents His Counsel from lighting the Case A Modest Plea by Himseifc An Opportunity Given to Appeal from the Sentence His Pather Informed of the Matter at Porto Eico Mr. Glad stone Speaks on the Irish Question Gossip from the Old' World. PARIS, Feb. li Tho Duke of Orleans, son of the Count and Countess of Paris, who came to Paris last week with the avowed intention of enlisting in the French army and who wjis arrested on the charge of violating the law exiling from France all pretenders to the French throne, was again arraigned before tbe tribuual of the Seine today. lie vjas adjudged guilty of violating the law and was sentenced to two years' imprisonment. The court room was crowded with spec tators who had gathered to witness the proceedings against the young duke. When the prisoner was arraigned the crowd broke out with loud cries for the army, the Duke of Orleans and the repub lic. They became so demonstrative that the gendarmes were compelled to clear the room. After the sentence had been pronounced a thousand persons invaded the advocates' room. Many of them were monarchists and shouted "Long live the Duke of Or leans." Their shouts were met with counter cries of "Down with tlie Duke of Orleans," "Long live the republic " The guards were powerless to restore order. After venting their feelings here for a time the crowd shouted "To the station, let us ciown Henry IX." With one accord the rushed to the site of the statue where there were cries of 'Long live tho king" from the duke's sympathizers and "Long live tbyi republic," from the opponents. The police made twonty-tlyo arrests. Before judgment was announced tbe duke addressed the court m his own be half. Re said: "I canio to France to serve as a common soldier. 1 have noth ing to do with politics, which only con cerns my father, whose obedient sou and faithful servant I am. I knew that by en tering France I rendered myself liable to law, but that knowledge did not stop me. I love my country aud wish to serve her. I am guilty of no crime." The duke will be allowed to remain in the Conciergene prison for a few weeks before being removed to jail. The government grants him this privilege in order to give him an oppor tunity to appeal from tho sentence of the court. During the hearing in the court the Duke of Orleans asked his counsel not to defend him. He said he had learned in exile to honor magistracy ami respect its decision. If condemned by the courts ho was sure of acquittal at the hands of :$, 000 conscripts of hi- class who were more fortunate thuu he had been and who were able to serve their country. When the public prosecutor urged that the duke was undoubtedly guilty aud he had been taken flagrant delictu, the were murmurs in the audience and the president threatened to clear the court. Tho coun sel for the dafendant declared that the duke's act was the result of a generous impulse, and would be nn honor to him throughout his life. He hoped that in her hour of danger France would have many such children to defend her. This senti ment was greeted with applause. The counsel further contended that the law imposing military service upon all French men nullified tho law relating to the exile of the princes. The Count of Paris, who. with the Duke de ChartrcB, 1 a passcngf r bound for A'era Cruz, arrived at Porto Rico today where he received intelligence of the arrest of his son, tho Duke of Orleans. He immediately sent a cable dispatch to Al. do Boucher, an Orleanlst member of the chamber of deputies, saying: "My heart is with mi dear prisoner." It is reported that the Duke of Orleans will submit quietly to the sentence of the court and make no appeal. GLADSTONE SPEAKS- The Living Issue3 an Foreign and Irish Matters Discussed.
