General News Summary.

WASHINGTON, April IA Texas
grand jury has presented indictments
against Cortina and his gang OF cattle
thieves. The spoils Of Texan citizens
are estimated at s6,50O,O00 yearly. In
addition to the measures that have been
taken by the Government for the pre-
vention OF Mexican raids over the Texas
border and the capture Of the thieves,
the citizens of the invaded section are
organizing old fashioned bands ofTexan
rangers for the purpose of protection
and retaliation. Recent advices recejv-
ed here report the excitement as running
high, and serious trouble is appre-
hended.
1t is asserted that the cattle and
horses stolen from Texas are sold
openly in the Mexican markets. The
attention OF the Mexican Government
has been repeatedly called to this matter
and assurances have as often been
received that immediate steps would be
taken to prevent its recurrence. The
patience of this Government has been
entirely exhausted and by direction OF
the President stringent orders have
been issued by the Secretary OF War
to the commanding officer OF the
Department Of Texas to capture the
thieves and, if possible, break up the
system of raids.
Considerable excitement prevails here
among the friends and opponents OF
the Bayfield, and St. Croix railroad bill
Both sides are working hard and both
are confident Of success. General
Ketchum, who has charge of the report
of the Conference Committee, has given
notice that he will present report on
Tuesday next, when it is expected thai
the Bayfield, lobby will make a strong
fight for its passage. 1t Is claimed by
the friends Of this scheme that they
have got enough of the ol d opponents
of the bill to stay away and not vote as
will secure q majority for it.
Mrs. Mason, who ls so mysteriousIy
connected with the alleged sale OF arms
to the French Government during the
Franco>Prussian war, is now in this
city and, it is understood, will to-
morrow give testimony before the In
vestigating Committee. This lady,
during the rebellion, was we'll known
about Richmond as being connected
with the secret service Of the Confederate
Government. Since the rebellion she
has been figuring extensively In the
Cuban cause. 1t is said that mainly
through her influence a vessel was
actually loaded at New York with
rifles, intended for the the Cuban
patriots, but the vessel was selzed 10y
the Federal officers Mrs. Mason was
well known as a lobbyist here during
Mr.. Johnson's administration.

ROBESON INVESTIGATION

WASHINGTON, April l3.-The Robe.
son investigation was continued tonight.
Ex-Secretary Wells was examined at
great length concerning the operations
of the Navy Department during his
administration. The examination was
pressed hard by all the members OF the
committee. Wells stated that the in
quiry board passed upon and allowed
all the extra bills OF all contractors as
the work went on, and that in this way
Secors got S520,000 extra to the con-
tract on the three iron clads which they
built. He had always been under the
impression that all claims for extra
work put in by all the contractors were
passed upon as tinalty by the March
and Board, and having been once 30
settled should not have been again
considered by the Department. After the
matter was closed by the Department
during his administration and it went
to Congress, the witness considered that
it was out Of the hands OF the Depart
ment and the action of Congress was
conclusive. The law of 1868 expressly
provided that payments allowed by the
Marchand Board were in full of all
these claims. Witness thought he
should never reopen a case that had
been finally closed by his predecessor.
Such practice would be irregular and
would ruin any government. There
must be some final closing Of an ac-
count if the government is to be pro-
tected.
The investigation was then adjourned
till Monday night

CANADIAN PARLIAMENT.
Discussion on the Treaty OF wash
ingtOn.

OTTAWA, ONT, April l3.-In a debate
in the Dominion Parliament, in reply
to a speech last night, Sir Francis
Hincks stated, in reply to Mr.. McKln-
sic, the leader OF the opposition, VINO
complained of delay in calling the
House together, that it was caused
by differences which had arisen between
England and the United States with
respect to the treaty of Washington.
There were two aspects of it to be con-
sidered. The merits of the treaty itself,
which would have to be dealt with by
Parliament, and the question OF the
responsibility OF the Canadian Govern
ment. If the Premier had accepted
a seat in the Commission only on
condition that he would not be called
upon to sign the treaty, unless it met
his own approval, it was not likely he
would have been appointed to that
position. He contended that it was an
honor and advantage to be represented
in that Commission. 1t was satlsfac-
tory that, throughout the whole pro
ceedings of the Commission, there had
been perfect unanimity among the
members of the Canadian Government.
He objected to the ground taken by the
members of the opposition, and the
organ representing their opinion,
that the commissioners were RESPONSE
BILE for the treaty. The British Govern
ment had admitted that they, and they
alone should be held responsible to the
the British Parliament, and the Cana
dian Government were alone RESPONSE
BILE for the treaty to the Dominion Par
lament. When papers are brought
down to the House, they can see that
the Canadian Ministry had done their
duty, and taken the course which would
commend itself to the House; and that
they would be justified in all they had
done.
Sir John A. Macdonald moved the
usual formal resolution to appoint q
committee to draft reply to the
speeches.
Mr.. Helton objected to the adoption
Of the resolution without some explana-
ton from the Government respecting
the Washington treaty.
Sir John A. Macdonald declined to
discuss the question till the whole
matter should come up in due form
before the House. He would then be
prepared to discuss the mattar to its
fullest extent. Until that time it would
be inexpedient to do so. The address
was carried without division, and the
House adjourned till Tuesday, Monday
being declared general holiday
throughout the Dominion as day OF
thanksgiving for the recovery of the
Prince of Wales.
