A FRENCH CRIME.
ATTEMPTED MURDER OF WIFE. By Telegraph.—Press Awn —Copyright. Paris, Dec. 27. Investigation of the charges against M. Boppe, French inspector of forests in the Nancy district, who is alleged several times to have attempted to murder his wife, reveal that prisoner’s crimes were smothered by a conspiracy of the family, including prisoner’s brother, ex-Minister to Peking. AU who attended the conclave are now threatened with the penalties of law for its contravention by concealment of crime. [Boppe, for the sake of an intrigue with a girl, twice conspired to poison his wife with cyanide. The plot was revealed by his children, and his wife forgave him. Later Boppe shot her twice with a revolver in bed, stimulating suicidal appearances. His wife again forgave him and endorsed the suicide story, but on learning that he meant to abscond abroad with his mistress denounced him and procured his arrest.]
