FRANCE.
ANTI - REPUBLICAN LEAGUES. [united pbkss association.] (by eleoteic telegraph—copybigh^. Paris, September 19. The Senate, sitting as a High Court, has commenced the trial of M.M. Deroulede and Habert and 20 others on a charge of conspiracy. The correspondence seized has disclosed that an allianco existed between the League of Patriots, the antiSemites, the Nationalists, and the Royalists; that a year ugo the Duke of Orleans authorised M. Andre Buffet, the Orlennist representative who was arrested on the Belgian frontier, to expend ,300,000 franca for the purchase of the support of labour associations and fomenting disorder. Ladies offered large sums to Buffet, who kept the Duke informed of all the demonstrations early in the year, urging the Duke to keep near the frontier. Apparently the failure to secure the assistance of the army disheartened the Duke, who telegraphed to Buffet at the end of August that there was no present possibility of a -
revolution, and that they had better await the end of the Dreyfus case, and the frightful crisis following the Exhibition.
