When court opened this morning. Judge Hord. on behalf of the defendant Goldsmith, arose and entered objection to William Waltman speaking before the jury, because the law required tho prosecutor of this district to open the case, and also because Waltinan bad nerer been admitted to the bar. It looked for a few momenta as if be would bo barred from the argument, as he acknowledged tbat he had not been admitted. Judge Johnson called Mr. Waltman before him and after asking him if be wished to address the jury, ad ministered the oath to bim and ordered Prosecutor Campbell to fill a written application for Waltman's assistance. The attorneys for the defense probably thought If tbcy could compel Mr. Campbell to speak for the -State, be being inexperienced, be might help the defense, but the Judge caused considerable chagrin among them by his prompt action. Waltman made an excellent speech, covering the' entire ground of the evidence on both sides and making a good impression in this, bis first speech before a jury in IShelby county. It was expected that the defendant'!) attorneys would speak before the noon recess, and considerable speculation was indulged in when tho court adjourned until 2:o0 o'clock. The defendant is represented by some of tho best legal talent in tho State, and it is understood tbat there has been a controversy among them as to which should speak. When court reconvened, at 2:30, the defense announced willingness to submit the case without further argument, and the judgo gave his charge and the case to the jury at 3 o'clock. The rulings of the court have been very fair, and but lew exceptions have been taken on either side. At 10:45 o'clock to-night, after the jury had been out seven hours and forty-live minutes, the jury agreed on its verdict, finding (.oldamitb "not guilty." The former trial at Columbus, last February, resulted in a verdict of guilty and a sentence of live years. Goldsmith and his attorneys were congratulated by a large number of friends as he walked out of court a free man. FAVOU SUNDAY OPENING. Interesting biicutilou Among Terre Haute 3IlnUters on the World's Fair Question. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Terke Haute, Ind., Jan. 21. The Rev. James Small, cf Columbus, who bas been holding meetings here in the Christian Church. has been attracting considerable attention outside of tlie circle of the church by the position he has taken in the newspapers on tho question of Sunday opening of the world's fair, lie zests his position in favor ot an open fair mainly on the changing of the Sabbath from the seventh to tho first day of the week. The question has been a live one in this city for soveral weeks. The Kev. R. V. Hunter, formerly of Indianapolis, was one of the original movers to have tho fair olosed 011 Sunday, and through his active efforts the subject has been kept belore the people. One of the daily newspapers opened its coinmus to a discus3ion of the question and Mr. Hunter availed himself of the courtesy. Mr. Eugene Debs, secretary of the brotherhood ot Locomotive Irireinen, replied in canstio terms, as he once before had to an utterance of the reverend gentleman from the palpit. Dr. Coultas, in tnrn, replied toMr. Debs from the Centenary Public Mr. Debs is an agnostio, and his liberal use of the term "bigot" aroused the indignation, not to say anger, of the city clergymen. The Kabbi of the Jewish Temple also has taken part in the discussion favoring an - open Sunday. The Rabbi maintains that Congress has no right to determine limitations of a religious nature which are a violence of the conscience of many people. "This is a political, and not a religious government," he says, "and. accordingly, tho government is not Christian. Christian," he says, "is a religious denomination." ' KILLED IN AN KXPLOSION.

CITIZEN GUESDE'S HAYINGS

Leader of the French Socialists Thinks a Popular Uprising Necessary In No Other Uay. He Says, Can the Rottenness of the Present (Jovernment Le tlotted Oat of Sight. TO PURIFY FRANCE. Jules Gueftde, Leader of the Socialists, Thinks the People hhould Rise En Masse. Bpeclal to tho Imlianopolls JonrnVv London, Jan. 21. Jules Gucade, the leader of the French Socialists, to-day allowed himself to be interviewed again as to tho ultimate effect of the Panama scandal. He had felt the pulse of the Socialists throughout the couutry. Letters from the provincial leaders, concerning tho necessity of a popular uprising to clean out the rottenness of tbe government, stated that. from the Mediterranean to the English channel, the people of the cities were ready to strike. "Their organization is perfect, and they are prepared . to act as one man," continued Guesde. "Only here in Paris do the masses hesitate. They are confused by tho contradictory cries of tho opportunists, tbe monarchists and the royalists, who are trying to bide their fears by causing general confusion and misunderstanding. The moment Paris says 'I am ready;' follow me,' the doom of the present government by bribery is sealed. Wo will sweep the country and proclaim a new order of justice aud equality, in which monarchists, Republicans, royalists and Socialists will fare alike. To-day all things are sold labor, laborers, women, honor and life. Only by crushing out tbe whole system can we save ourselves from the recurrence, perhaps in a year or two years, ot this present carnival of corruption." The French authorities appear determined to show by their energy in obtaining evidence against Dr. Cornelius Herz that they are in earnest in tbeir effort to procure his extradition. They realize that they are under considerable disadvantage in dealing with Dr. Herz attbe distance of London. If they bad him in Paris he could be subjected to the usual French process of examination, which includes browbeating, confronting, entrapping and everything in the WAy of inquisition, short of actual physical torture, and it sometimes approacbea that very closely in the persistent subjection of the accused to long and exhausting sittings, with a view of compelling admission through sheer weariness and desire for rest. As Herz cannot be subjected, in advance of extradiction, to this sort of racking, the French authorities are doing tho next best thing for their pnrposes by putting bis friends through the process. M. Clemenceau was confronted yesterday witUM. Stephane, with the view of elioiting, if possible, somo acknowledgments that might be sent to London to strengthen the oase against Herz. The examination w'as private, but, according to the Petit Journal, listeners on the outside heard enough to convince them tbat a very lively vocal encounter was in progress within. Clemenceau stoutly maintuined his denials of any knowledge of oorruptor criminal conduct on the part of Herz or anybody else, and used language that, in auv other place, would have beon promptly followed by a challenge to a duel. Clemenceau stood his around under all the pressure, and tbe examination closed without admission of wrong on his part, and, it is understood, without any additional damage to Herz. All parties in France are furious against Herz. "Tbe Panamaites," as they nro called, are enraged against him for the share he is alleged to have taken in betraying them to Andrieux and assisting tho erprefect in the exposures which have caused so much scandal, while those who were not implicated in the scandal would like to see the chief responsibility for the disgrace laid upon a foroigner, and a German at .Jhat. One of the charse& most generally uftcVciP against Herz is "that he is a Bavarian. It hapDens that Dr. Herz was born at liesancon, in France, aud is not the son ot Ravarian, but of Hessian parents. He is, therefore, only of German parentage. This, however, makes no difference to his assailants, who are persistent in denouncing him' as a German, aud spare no etlort to prove that he was the ohief hand in the Panama attain One of the newspapers goes so far as to declare that foreigners are chielly responsible for the Panama scandal. 'Paris," it says, "has ' become the great cosmopolis. It is well to encourage wealthy foreigners to live here. They hire rooms and flats .at the highest rents, spend money on objects of taste aud luxury, do not trouble themselves about decorations or politsos in connection with bribery, and are really happy if they can succeed in climbing on a mail coach to sit beside dukes and ducheeses. Tho authorities appreciate tbat denouncing Herz as a German will have no iniluenco in a British court of justice, and that they will have to make out clearly a probable case of guilt in order to obtain his extradition. Hcrz's apologists, of whom there are some, express admiration for his shrewdness in securing a chance to defend himself in England, and Intimate that it might have been better for some others of the accused if they had adopted a similar course." 'It is reported to-night that Magistrate Franquoville will come to England to examine M. Herz. MASSING TROOPS IN FOIjAND. Russia Soon to Ilnvo Twenty-Two Army Corps on Her "Western llorder. Speclnl to tbe Inuianaoolis Jonrnal. London, Jan. 2L Dispatches from Warsaw show tbat while the Czar sends his son to Berlin with a diamond diadem for ths Emperor's sister, and makes profession as to his lovo of peace, he is pursuing steadily his preparations for war. Three divisions of infantry are now breaking up their quarters in tho Caucasus, and within afow weeks will be in Russian Poland under the command of the German-hating General Gourko. These divisions, together with tbe division taken to Kieff two years a co. will make two more army corps for Russia - on her western border. Thus Russia's army within immediate call for fighting against Germany and Austria-Hungary will amount to twenty-two army corps, or au armj as large as Italy or Austria-Hungary now commands. Neither in the Volga district nor in Russian Poland has the cholera disappeared, and hence the importation of troops from t?aratort and Asia Minor is likely to lead to afresh and violent outbreak of tho euidemic as soon ai the new divisions arrive. Just why the men in St. Petersburg, who know this, should hurry on the Caucasian infantry to the German frontier is a mystery, unless the easy and apparently unavoidable explanation be accepted tbat the Czar expects trouble bofore tho end of 1803. OLD SCANDAL RK CALLED. Death of a Well-Known Character Who Figured In the Dunlo Divorce Case. London, Jan. 21. Isidore Wcrtheimer, a well-known London character who figured in tho Dunlo divorce case, died to-day. Tho Dunlo divorce case, in which Wertheimer figured as co-respondent, was an action brought in 1&J0 by the Earl of Clancarty to have severed the marriage bonds between his eldest ton. Viscount Dunlo, who is now the Earl of Clancarty. and his wile, who was formerly Belle Bilton, a well-known musicball 6iuger. When tho Earl lenrned that his son had married Belle Bilton he packed bim oh on a foreign tour, and began proceedings for a divorce, naming Werfbeimer, who was then a wealthy West-end oric-a-brac dealer, as tho co-respondent. On tho trial Wertheimer testified that I.Ady Dunlo had lived at his house, Hubsequent to her marriage with Viscount Dnnlo, simply because her husbr.nd had deserted her and she bad no means of support. Wertheimer admitted that bo loved Lady Dunlo, aud wonld not allow her to sutler deprivation. Ho denied positively that their relations were Immoral, us did also Ladv Dunlo. It became the general belief after I the easn bad proceeded for a time tbat the I old Earl ot Clancarty had sent his son

away in order to force bis wife into her old life and thus secure grounds for a divorce, and the result of tho trial was in favor of Lady Dunlo and Wertheimer. Vucount Dunlo returned to England and subsequently hecamo reconciled to his wife. He succeeded his lather as Earl of Clancarty on tho lat tor's death. May 2U, lSid. GENERAL. FOREIGU NEWS.
