The CAPTURE OF WALKER By the steam
er Empire City at New York I'VE have con-
frmatery accounts from Honduras Of the
capture of Gen. Walker, together with some
seventy Of his followers, on the river Rio
Negro. Tbe Geographic dispatches mem
tions the name of Colonel Kudler," who

"Prensa'' prints the name "Ruttler"
Our accounts, in other particulars bear
out the telegraphic version. Immediately
on the capture of the fllibusters by the for
ces of the British steamer Icarus, they we're
turned over to the commander of the Hon
duras forces, Gen Alvarez. with the under
standing that Walker and his Colonel would
be dealt with according tc what was right, 4"
and that his followers who, for the most
part, were sick and wounded and incapable
of bearing arms, saoT}d be permitted to re-
turn to the United States, the U. S. consul
at Truxillo being responsible for the neces-
sary expenses. Ths whole party were then,

we're confined as prisoners-th arms and
baggage having been previously taken from
them.
Previous to the capture of the Gllibusters
the utmost alarm prevailed throughout the
country. The neighboring State Of Guata-
mala, apprehenslve lest their operations
should be extended in that direction, re-
solved to make common cause with lfondu-

men was dispatched. under command Of Col.

A rumor has been in cireulation, for some
days past. that one of the leading railroad
companies of Pennsylvania, said to be the
Pennsylvania Central, had been robbed of
about S170, 600 That runror has now as
sumed definite shape, and tEe, substance Of
the affair may be briefly told as follows: A
ticket-seller of the company, stationed at an
important point, in collision with seventeen
of the conductors, had for long time been
in the practice of re- selling tickets. which
the conductors did not punch or cancel, but
returned to him perfect, shus enabling him to
sell the same ticket several times in success
sion, the conductors only reporting to the
general ticket ager5 such numbers of tickets
as they deemed it prudent TO return. The
exact length of tiine that This simple but in
genious system Of robbery had been going
on it is impossible to ascertain; leng enough,
however, to enable the conductors to appro-
pirate to themselves an average Of $40, 900
each. A considerable portion Of the aggre-
gate had been invested in varioug kinds of
property and securities, and of this the com
pany has fortunately been able to secure a
considerable amount. The seventeen con-
ductors have of course been discharged, leav-
ing in service but two only of those employ
