Death Of John Harper.
The Reported Resignation of
Secretary Delano.

Washington, April. 22.-The report
that the President has requested or
intimated to Secretary Delano. to re-
sign, is positively denied at the exc
cutive mansion.
Attorney General Williams, to-day,
rendered TO the President the resigna-
ton of his office, to take effect on the
18th of May. His resignation has not
yet been accepted, and, therefore, no
one has been named as his successor.
Intimate friends of Judge Williams
say he designs returning to Oregon
and entering into the contest for
United States Senator from that
State.
Francis w. Rice, formerly United
States Consul at Aspinwall and Aca-
pulcO, has addressed letter to Secre-
tary Robson relative to the report
that Commander Lull seems to prefer
the Nicaragua to the Panama route for
canal to connect the Atlantic
aud Pacific oceans. Rice says that
after his residence of eighteen years
on the Isthmus, which were passed as
United States Consul, he can speak Of
Panama as more healthy than Nicara-
qua, and adds, that with favorable
conditions for living, the country is as
healthy as Vermont or New Hamp-
shire. He concludes by saying that
| the Panama route is 600 to 700 miles
nearer than the supposed Nicaragua
route to the great cities and rich
| trade of the Southern Pacific.
Secretary Delumo returned here this
| morning and in response to numerous
inquiries rs to the truth OF the reports
that the President had requested his
resignation, says they are not true
Last fall Secretary Delano told the
President he desired to resign for the
purpose of attending to his private
affairs in Ohio, but the President re-
quested him to withhold his resigna-
ton rs long as possible, and Secretary
Delano therefore relinquished his pur-
| pose of resigning at that time, but in
tended to do so on the first of this
month, and shortly after the close of
the extra session of the Senate he
went to Ohio for the purpose of arrang-
ing his private affairs, preliminary to
retiring from the Department. He
did not return until last "Wednesday,
and since then has had no opportunity
of comforting with the President upon
the matter, though he had hoped to
find one during their recent trip to
Massachusetts,. The Secretary made
no definite statement as to his present
intentions in regard to resigning.
1t is believed that Secretary Bristow
will be appointed Attorney-G General in
the place of Williams.

Salt Lake, April 22.-The Union
Pacific Railroad is still blocked east
No mail has arrived here from the
east since April 18th. A train was
expected here this evening, but, owing
to another washout in Weber Canyon
it is doubtful if it arrives tonight.
This train contains the passengers and
mails transferred by wagons for several
miles on Bitter Creek, and has been
five days, on the way from Green
River, having been delayed by numer-
outs washouts. The streams are all
high and rising, rs the weather con-
tinues warm. a report from Green
River, this morning, says the track
east and west is in bad condition, and
that the railroad company have about
400 men at work repairing the track
east of there, aud about twenty teams
for making the transfer of seven miles.
They expect to get the track repaired
in about twenty days. Another wash
out is reported this evening, near
Church Buttes, and an engine and
two cars in the ditch. This washout t
trouble extends from Ogden, Utah, to
Rock Springs, Wyoming, a distance
of two hundred miles.

New York, April 22.-There was a
marked decrease in the attendance at
the Beecher trial to-day, even the So
called Plymouth Church circle being
contracted to the proportions usual be-
fore Beecher took the stand. The
principals in the case and all the coun-
sci were present. H. O. Armour, pro-
duce merchant, was the first witness.
He testified to having declined to ex-
anime the papers in the case at the
invitation of Moulton, who wanted to
show him he was right in his general
position, and who said he would make
it hotter than hell for any one who
would testify against him. He was
not crOss-eXamined.
John Harper, senior member of the
firm of Harper Bros, died this even
ing, in the 10Th year of his age.

The Latest From the Border.
A Brownsville special to the Galveston
Nescs dated July 3. saws:

"A OrOWuBvllo special UO tno UAAVestou
.Nescs dated July 3, says:
Nothing new from Captain McNally.
Sergeant Wright 10 in town.
1t il reported on good authority that four
citizens of Mexican origin have been killed
fight. They were charged with having
aided the rangers!
A party OF Cortina'e men are reported TO
have buried some arms and ammunition
tour miles above MatamOras. Certins's
mon stopped ScOtt's train on the Monterey
road. near MatamOras, and robbed it Of
thirty guns. This occurred late yesterday.
1t is said that Cortina was implicated in
the attack upon the specie train.
Judge Monter0 has been arrested for
failing to deal with one Of the attacking
party.
No attempt will be made, 60 it is said, to
rescue COrtins while he remains in Mata-
m0ras. The trouble anticipated will come
while he is en- route for Bsgdad to embark
for Vera Cruz.
The military telegraph line is progressing
rapidly. Tho construction party is in
charge of Lieutenant James. Eleven miles
have been finished, and it will not be long
before Fort Brown will be in eomrhunica-
tion with RiDggold Barracks.
Cattle stealing still goes on up the river
No large droves have been crossed into
mexico recently. The opinion prevails here
that the arrest of COrtins is . mere farce
to deceive our government 1t is believed 1
NO harm will come to him for anything he
may have done TO Americans. II he has
consPired against President Lerdo he may
come to grief.
General Henojoss, at one time Secretary
Of War under President Juarez, lives in
Cameron county. He was here yesterday,
and was advised not to 60 to Matamoras.
He thinks the arrest Of Cortina is connected
with the approaching election for President
and that arrests have been or will be made
throughout Mexico OF those who are not
friendly to President Lerdo.
The departure Of Cortina would deprive
the raiders of q leader. but it will by no !
means check their operations. Many of
them have lived for ten years by robbing
Americana. 1t is too easy . way to live and |
get rich to be abandoned because one man
has been taken out of the wav. |
