WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, April 7.-As the Pacific
Railroad Committee cannot finish their
investigation of the affairs of the Central

sion, they will tomorrow come to an

facts can be reported early at the next

Rear Admiral Hoff writes from Havana
that the Captain General Of Cuba, at his
request, had given orders for the passage
through the lines Of the Spanish troops
several American citizens and their
families from the interior. Among them
Mr.. Cobra, the American Consul at

ment on the charge of conspiracy, at the

lish Consul General has received, in

case was in the Spanish Admiralty
Court, and that as soon as the decision
was made known he would be informed
of it.

rhs Franoo Bslgio Railroaa Muddlo,

The Paris correspondent Of the Lon
don Standard, of the goth ultimo,
writing of this vexsd question, says;
Better late than never. The French
Government has backed out Of its pre-
tsusions--it no longer insists on Belgium
stultifying herself by validating the con
tract with the East line, and has, after
much demurring, ended as il should
have meneed--assented to the Bel
gan proposal to arrange the tariffs be-
tween the two countries for the transport
of coal, so that the Eastern line should
not be loser. The object Of the French
Government to get hold of the Belgian
line. and compel the Cabinet of M. Frere-
Orban to fly in the teeth Of a law, the
passing of which he had made Cabinet
question, is thus utterly foiled, thanks to
the firmness and prudence of those Bel
gian Ministers against whom the semi
official pack. have been barking for the
past month. The insolent diatribes of
the semi officials, and the upjusti6able
course pursued up to the very last by the
French Government, will not be speedily
forgotten. There is unfortunately no
security that this incident once settled
if il be in fair way of settlement as now
appears to be the case-another may not
crop up at any time. The French Gov
eminent has grown so very sensitive,
that, having taken offense at the Belgian
Railway Bill, there is no saying what it
may not take offense at next. However,
sufficient for the day is the evil thereof,
