CHICAGO, May 2S.
The news Of the disaster to the Feni-
ans at Malone, yesterday, 1t seems, had
little effect on the Brotherhood here.
Men continue tn be enlisted, and money
raised. The impression among nntsid-
ers, however, is that the whole move
ment is about ended.
The Tribune has special from Bos-
ton, which says that entirely reliable in
formation from Malone last night is to
the effect the invasion from that point is
more complete and disgracefnl failure
than at ST. AlbaBs The men are utterly
demoralized; that renewed movement,
which some of the officers talk of. is inn
possible; the affair is at an end; and
even newspaper correspondents are re-
turning.
st. Louis reports are current that
consid ,rable number of Fenians have
left here for the East, but it can not be
ascertained that over forty or fifty have
gone.
A meeting was held to raise funds,
bnt the news from the border is not cal
cuated to make the effort success.
A model of the equestrian Gen. Lyon
is placed on exhibition here.
Extensive preparations arc completed
for the decoration of the soldiers graves
in this city.

Fenians reported in camp at Trout River.
Eight more Fenians killed. aud twenty
wonndpd, yesterday. All quiet on Mag
ara. An ample force will be kept np TO
defend all the borders Of the Dominion.
Small bands are wandering near the
lines unable TO return home.
The excitement has almost ceased
Business is rapidly resuming Its former
condition. The last Fesian raid is re-
garded as a complete failure.
What to do with Them.
ST. ALBANs, May 2S.
Everything qniet this forenoon. How
the coming Fenians are to be got on Is
the question that now troubles the citi-
zens. United Suites Government re-
fuses to take the matter out of the hands
of the civil authorities. and they do rot
like to take the responsibility of paying
for their transportation; while the rail.
road managers insist on being paid for
retu ming them home. Thus the matter
stands.
Gen. Meade is inclined to censure the
people here more than they deserve.
Says they have 10 a great extent sympa-
thized with the Fenians, and knew they
were making preparations to invade
CGnadn; storing arms aud ammunition
on the border. This is trne; but the
Government had been officially apprised
of all this. Marshal Foster, long before
the Fenians landed here, informed the
Washington authorities what might be
expected. District Attorney Fifield did
the same; yet not one word was received
IN reply to their communications, aud it
was AZ hours after the Fcnians had COM
meheed landing at this point, notwith-
ing the Government was promptly posted
concerning their move, before anything
