1HE DISPUTE WITH RUss1A- Ex-'
crTFMENT OVER PRINCE GoRTscBA.
KoFFs NoTE.-A special dispatch
to The New York Evening Post
from Washington, under a late
date, says:
Nothing has lately led to 90 much
comment in diplomatic circles as
Prince Gortschakof's letter to Min.
lister Curtin, relative to the treat
ment of Minister Catecazy by the
United States Government.
The document has made q deci.
ded sensation, inasmuch as it is
supposed to have the sanction of
tie Car, and foreshadows that
Er. Catecazy is to be sustained by
his own government.
The letter is regarded by high
officers rs a direct and open insult
to the President and Secretary of
State, and as likely to lead to se.
r;ous results.
The country need not be sur.
prised if Mr.. Curtin, our Minister
to Russia, is Immediately ordered
to demand his passports, and the
Russian Charge d'Affaires here
supplied with his, in order tha. he,
may take his departure from the
United States. This would break
OFT all diplomatic intercourse with
Rnssia. but such step is said to
have been under contemplation
already by our authorities.
1t is maintained here that onr
Government acted with great for.
bearance and leniency towards Mr..
Cstecazy. and that instead of the
Russian Government being offend
ed, it ought to feel thankful that
our Government did not long AGO
send Mr.. Catecazy his passports.
Prince Gortschakoffs letter baa
explained Mr.. Catecazy's obiec.
tionable conduct, and confirmed
what has long been suspected here
6y our authorities, that he acted
in accordance with instructions
from St. Petersburg, and not OF his
own volition.
