FLOGGED TO DEATH. The Siberian. Atrocities Wort* Than at Fint Reported. A UOVKHNOKd BRUTALITY A London cable, says : The London frot of the Associtttd Press yesterday questioned SergineBlepriak, the wt 11 know n wmtr of Uuasian politic*! Dd social con ditioin, regarding the rtctnl outran* > to * political i.risn. at Kars, l.aiiiru Siberia. Mr. Hltpniak laid the reports slrtady pub- llabtd gave cnly a biol cf the horrible tragedy. Trustworthy information baa be*n received in i ipber letttri that col through to 1'aris tod London frcm exiles in Extern Biber ia. Thine Ittttn, which are meagre scrap* of paper, tell the story only in iti main cutlmta. But tee who knowi about hiberian priion life doe* cot need a ciri.umstaL,tial recital to understand the cruelly of discipline and the agony of offering of which tbii horror wai the cul- mination. J ull details of tbe dreadful toiy cannot be long now in reaching the weolti ii world Coming so soon after the publicity given to the Yakultk atrocity, Mr. Hn-j r ik thinks it can hardly fail to deepen the aenM of horror already felt by the civilized world at KoMia'i treatment of political oflenderr. A WOJUS n.ti.'.ED TO UKATO. Tbe facts so far received are as followi : Mine. Bigida did not commit suicide as the earliest report* Hated. She dud from the effects of a cruel flogging. The flogging took place on Wednesday, November 6th. It wa* continued till tba victim lost con cioasness. She never revived frcm the hock, bat grew weaker until Friday, when he died. The news cf her murder pro- duced widespread dismay and aogoish among her fellow prisoners, and three of them, unable longer to bear their wretched fate, cctnmilted anicidu by taking poison. Bow they obtained the poison is not known, bat probably tbey had long had it in their possession, and were keeping it as last resort. Tbe names of tbe women were Marie Kaluzhnaya, Marya Faloovna Karalefskaya, and Nadezbuu Hmirmts- kaya. mr ricniis i.vi> TBIIB CBIMES. Marie Kalnahnaya was arnsted in 1884, when 18 )ers old, on a charge of dis- loyaity. Her father wa* a merchant at Odtsia. Eviry mean* was tried in vain totxtort from ber a confession implicating her friends. Al last Col. Kalanski brought her a forged stattment, purporting to he the aobfession of ber fellow- conspirators, and Cruising immunity it she alto oonfeised. no feu into the trap, confessed, ua ber confession was osed against her friends, who were sentenced to penal servitude When she learned they bad been convicted 00 ber testimony alone, Marie called upon Kataoaki and fired a pistol at him, wounding him slightly in one ear. For this he was sentenced by court-martial to twenty ysars' penal servitude. Marya Panlovna karsUUkaya was a married lady 35 years old, daughter of a well know 11 landed proprietor in Booth Hun.ia. I'aol Vorootaof. and sister of Basil Poroutkof, one of the btst known political centrums in Kotsia. Bhe joined a secret circle hlrh was cspturcd ty tbe police in 187'.', and wa* sentenced to thirteen j ears' penal servitude with sxile to Siberia for life and deprivation of civil rights. Her husband, tbcugh cot present, was sent by administrative proctm a thooiat.il mile* from tbe mice* to which she was sent. The separation drove her Insane. In 18nl ah wa* allowed to join ber htmbend in the hope of restoring htr reason, bbe recovered, but a M w Governor separated them again, and she was reiuri.u1 to tbe Kaia mines. Naderhda Bmirnitskaya was 9.1 years old and a student in a woman's college, the was senteLoed to the Kara mints for 15 year*, with |>enl servitude. Bborlly alter tbe suicide of the three women a brother o( Mane Kaluzbnaya, a political priioner, ditd suddenly. It is not ilt tii.

Another exile named Itobokov committed suioide rather than submit to a Hugging. lie was a urn Tersily student, and took part in a public demonstration which displeased theaothori- tie*, lie attempted to eaoape from his prison, and for this w* exiled to the mines of K astern Siberia. Till ruxioimi SMC r. Mme. Higida wa* flogged under the orders of Lieut. General baron Korff, the Oovernor Osneral of the 1'rovinoe of llm Amoor. 7 he orders directed that tbn secret edict of March, 1HNH, ugned by Uslkln Vrasskoy, Director General of Prisons for tha I mi in, ihoold be uiiflinohingly en- fore..! This i diet required that political oonviols should be treated by prison officials in the sams manner as criminals condemned for common Isw offsnoi*. Political offender* were thus made liable to flogging lor breaches of prison discipline. In what way Mme. Bigida transgrstil the prison roles is not made plain. Bat flogging a mnsitive and (Cultured woman to death for any breach of prison discipline, Mr. Btrpnlak thought, wunld impress the W. M. r i world with profound horror. The political prisoner* at Kara, Mr. Btopniak said, had learned that the politi oal exilua at Haghalltn had been cruelly flat-Kill. They were constantly In droad <>l torture similar to that inflicted upon Mme. Bigida. THIC < INTBAI. I.OVSHMO.NT KKSroMSIUU. Mr. Htepnlak wa* aaked whether he thought tbe Clear, now that the horrors at Kara bad been made pnblic.would Interfere to mitigate the severity of prison discipline In the case of political oonviut*. lie replied that it was not unlikely that the publloa tlon of the faots would force tbe superior officials ol Unssla to take some notice ol the affair But, he rani, the Hogging and tbe other brutalities were entirely due to the direct order* of the ( Vntral Government at Bt Petersburg, namely, the edlot of March, 1BHM The Ministry of tbe Interior was directly reeponslbls for the renewal of corporal punishment of political prisoners, whioh had been suspended in INK'/ after 1 report ordered Bogolobofl to be tl jgged.

A Paris cable says : The Dae d'Orleans. oldest son of the Comte de Paris and heir to the throne of France, wa* condemned tbis afternoon to two > ears' imprisonment and to pay tna cost of tbe trial. At bis trial in tbe 1'alais de Justice President Tsrdifi began, Monsieur la Duo d'Or- lean*, a* to-day'* tribunal i* differently constituted bom that before which yon recently appeared, I am obliged to repeat the usual preliminary examination. Your name I* 'Louis Philippe'?" " Robert Duo d'Orleani," interrupted tbe young man, as if jtalou* of hi* title. " ion were born at Twickenham. You are the eldeit *onof Comte de Paris, grand son of Louis Philippe, who reigned in France until Feb. IMlli, 1848 ?" " I am." " Yon are, doubtless, aware that the law forbids the heads and heirs of tbe bouses which once ruled to set fcot upon French territory, yet yon were amated in Pari* on Feb. 7tb, where your presence i* unauthor- ized. Will yon explain your action ?" The Prinoe, very pale and evidently con- trolling himaelf by a great effort, glanced nervously about him, and seemed to find encouragement in the multitude of *ym- palhetiu lace* which met hi* gaze. Straightening himself with a proud move- ment of the beid and shoulders, he made the following declaration. Bis voice ounded low M he began, but had be whispered every word would have been heard distinctly in the remotest corner* of the room, so intense was the silence. A* he went on, ho spoke louder, bis cheeks flushed, ke looked at his judge* oot ot a pair of eye* shining with old-fashioned courage. Be made a pretty picture a* he itcod there telling hi* simple story, refus- ing to ssk for mercy, ready to accept tbe oonxqusnoe, in his boyish enthusiasm ap- pealing to the soldiers ot tbe nation to de- clare that be had done no wrong. Thtse wera hi* word* : Monsieur le President I beg permission to address yon with no display of floe phrases. I cam* to France to serve in tbe army ot my country a* a common soldier. I have nothing to do with politic* that concerns my father, whose respectful son and faithful lervant 1 am. I did not go tbe Chamber of Deputies, but to tbe enlistment bureau. I know the mk I am taking, but that did not stop me. I love my country. I* that a fault ? I longed to servo France in the ranks. I* that a crime T No! Thin I am not guilty. I ni ej no defence. 1 thank my counsel for tbe devotion they have shown, but I request them not to plrad for me. 1 have no favors to ask. I make no appeal for pardon. In exile I have learned to honor the magistrates ol France. I shall respect their judgment. But if I am found guilty I know that 900, 000 soldier* of my age will declare me in- m ni. ted all fair minded men and women will do the sams." A* the Prinoe ceased speaking tbe hush which bad settled over the chamber was succeeded by a tumult of cries aid voices Whether the speech was the result of his own intpiration, or, as the Hepnblioacs maintain, was writtsn for him by more experienced adviser*, there 1* no doubt that it wa* a dietinrt luooess as (sr as the audi- ence was concerned. I'nder tbe combined influence cf tbu sliding beat and intense excitemoul, women became hysterical, and imelling bottles and handkerchiefs came inlogrtal demand. Even men gave way to emotion, and more than one pair of masculine eyts winked bard to keep tack thu tear*. Alter tbe sentence had been pronounced a thousand persons invaded tbe advocates' robing room. Many wers Monarchists, and shoutsd, " Long live the Duo d'Or leans I" Their itonl* were mtt with counter cries of " Down with tbe Lmc d'Urlean* !" " Long live the Republic !" The guard* were pow*rle** to restore order. After vtnting their feelings here fur a time tbe crowd shouted, " lo the statue ; let us crown Henry IV." With one accord tin v i lulled to the site of tbe statue, we ere. there were crie* of " Long live tbe King!" Irom the Duo'* lympathizer*, and counter crie* of " Long live tbe Republic I" from hi* opponent*. The police made twenty- live arrests. ll.mlHiijUl \ l tori, v A Paris cable of Sunday aayt : Eelro- tions wers held in a number of divisions to day (or members of tbe Chamber of Drputin. MM.

A London cable of Sunday say* : An aoci dent ot an alarming character, by which several persons were seriously injnsed, occurred to-night during divine service at Bromley Independent Church. Across the end of the building over the entrance was fixed a balcony capable of holding 60 or 70 person*. While tha pastor was nadiog tbe lessons the gallery with scarcely any warning, suddenly colispsed, precipitating it* occupants into the body of the church. A cloud of dust obscured the view of the rtmsinder of tbe congregation for a few minute*, but when it cleared away it became obvious that comber* of persons were buried beneath tbe rains of the gal- lery. The lallin debris caused an obstruc- tion at the entrance and prevented any atsistance being rendered frcm tbe outside, but willing band* were soon at work clear ing away tbe fallen timber* and extricating the untortutate cccnpant* of tbe fallen gallery from their perilous position. Tbe gallery was pretty well filled at tbe time, and about twsnty person* were buried. The work of removing the debris occupied some time. When accomplished it was found that while moat of the victim* of the accident were severely bruised and out, five had received lerions injuries, which in tome instances may unfortunately prove fatal. One young lady was unconscious when extricated. Two medical gentltmeii in tbe congregation attended to the injured, of whom several had trokenlegs and arms, while others had internal njuriea, DUO A II HIV FOR A I'lLLOW.

A Montreal deipatch ssys : Archbishop Fabre ha* iisned a circular letter on burial abase*, which enact* that " no one must take from coffin* or oaaksts any ornaments or mountings once they are within cemetery gates" The custom has been mtiujujtu of stripping coffins of their ornamental mountings before final interment, and ths spoils are taken home a* souveniers. The archbishop alto furbids people to rent ocfltns snd ornaments, as has frequently been done. Tbe bodies were removed from one casket tu a lea* pretentious OLO at tn grave. As an instance of tbe abases of an- dcrtskers the archbishop cites a case where a man, having lost a young child, was unable to sttind tbo burial himself, but relied upon an undertaker whom be gave tlO. A few da> s later the father called opon tha cemetery authorities to be sure tuat the child wa* properly buried. There was no such entry on register. Tbe father then called upon the undertaker ardforotd him to produce tbe body of the child.

WABM'T BTIHOY UIOl'QH.- A Fugitive Cnlted 8'at*s Banker Supposed to bo Hiding MV ->. A deipatch from Middletown, N.Y., to the New York Herald says : There i* an interesting sequel to the story told by the Herald of tbe disappearance of Banker Engene 15. Hemingwsy, of tbe town of VV hitney 's Point, leaving behind him only t30 in silver snd about 15X00 worth of real estate with which to satisfy 960,000 of In- debtedness to depositors in bis back and other creditor*. The defalcation wa* a great shook to people in the Checaogo \ al- ley. The fugitive bad succeeded to a pro*- perocs banking business established by bis deceased father, and as he had no expen- sive tastes or vices, and wa* shrewd and clcse fisltd in business transactions, be was looked opon by tbe fsrmers and tradesmen of the vicinity a* a thoroughly safe man. Oo Saturday afternoon, December Tihlaet, be locked 4be doors ot hi* banking house and took a train to Binphsmton, where he changed to a train for Buffalo, and that was the last seen of him on this side of Canada. It is presumed that the fugitive found hiding rlaoe at or near Hamilton, On!., where he is said to have an uncle living. lie left behind him an interesting family, consist- of a wife acd little bUiid daughter and an invalid mother, to all of whom he itemed devotedly attached. In so far as is known none of his family or friends heard a word from him until a day or two ago. One of bis former bntints* friend* hsg now received a Iciu-r from him, mailed on tbis side of the Canada line, and affording no olaa lo bis hiding place, which is in the nature of a p!ea in externttion of bis con- duct, lie denies thl be carried ofl any considerable mm of money, and adds: They called me stingy, bat if I had fol- lowed my own interest I should have bern more stingy. I am a wanderer and a cul- prit, but there are those at Whitney's Point who are to blame for it." Be proceed* to name a number of prominent business men whom he aocaiea of having betrayed hi* confidence. The tone of the letter indicate* that the fugitive banker i* already sick of exile and cutla ry and want* to compromise with his cndiiors in order that he may safely return to his family. The creditors probably see no other way of recouping any :onsiderable portion of their lussen, and it Is un> erstood that mo*t of them are eager to open negotiations nith the defaulter.
