WHEN the existing war broke out
the Russians were very confident of
Their power and ability to wipe out the
Turks, and in their over-confdence
they met with serious reverses, though
not SO as to make their cause lost one.
france went at Prussia with the same
over-estimation of herself, but soon
discovered that the old Napoleon was
aead, and her gay armies went down
IKE frost-work before the sturdy Ger
man. The Russian armies, however,
nave not been anpihilated yet, and are
formidable. Their generals appear to
nave been taught wisdom, some having
Oeen retired in disgrace, warning to
s'ners that to win success they must
70 successful. England is our best
thermometer of the complexion of the
war When England is quiet the Rus
sians are making no progress, but when
sne talks war, we can rest assured that
nussia Is making 1t lively for the
Pashaws.

The Presidents Triumphal Tour.

Kenton, Sept. 15.-On the arrival of
President Hayes and party at 2 O'Clock
they were met by large and enthusi-
astic crowd. President Hayes, from
the platform of a car, made brief
speech. He was followed by General
Rozencrans, in few happy remarks.
Cincinnati. Sept. 49, President
Hayes and party arrived this evening,
and were met at the depot and escorted
to the Gibson house, where they were
welcomed on behalf of the people of
Cincinnati by Rev. DIR. Lillinthal in a
brief address, to which the President
responded. After the formal exercises
closed the President was driven to the
residence Of DR.. John Davis, where he
will remain during his sojourn here.

Position a, sehipka Pass.

London, Sept. 15.-The following des-
cription of Suleiman Pasha's position,
written ten days ago, is probably still
correct in the main: Suleiman Pasha's
army, including the reinforcements just
received, keeps up to its original num-
Der of $4,000 men, with ample field ar
tillery and mountain guns. Upon his
right and left he has established six
teen guns, which give the Russians no
rest night or day. Although he cannot
sufficiently command the road from
Galova into the Russian Notifications
to prevent their receiving supplies, he
can and does make them have anything
but an easy time within their entrench-
ments, which are exposed to his muir
derous thanking fire. Gen. Radetzky
cannot break through the force before
him and descend into, the plain any
more than Suleiman Paslia can drive
him out of his position and make q
swoop upon Gabrova and the country
beyond.

SWINDLER SPENCER.
chicago's Ex-Banker Escape.


London, Sept. 15.-It has not been
ascertained whether D. D. Spencer, the
absconding president Of the State Say
ings bank, of Chicago, has been ar
rested. The American legation and
Scotland yard refuse to say anything
about the matter. There is reason to
believe the case was only communicated
to the police to-day, and if so Spencer's
arrest is improbable, as the steamer
Circassian, on which he is believed to
have taken passage at Quebec, reached
Liverpool Tuesday. The fugitive was
certainly not arrested at Moville, where
the Circassian first touched.
Quebec, Sept. 15.-The detectives
have ascertained that the defaulting
bank president, Spencer, of Chicago,
purchased five thousand pounds worth
of Bank of England notes here. The
broker who sold "Williams'' the notes
identifies him by Spencer's photographs,
as well as by the clerks of the hotel
where he stopped.

WASHINGTON WAITS.
Precarious Condition of Senator
Morton.
The Belief That Conkling Will oppose
the Administration Growing
Stronger.
Other Political, Personal and journalistic
Gossip From the Capital.

Washington. Sept. 15.-Despite the
favorable daily reports of Senator Nor
toms condition there is good reason to
consider it very precarious. At times
he appears to be decidly better, but on
the whole there are no reliable evil
dences of substantial improvement.
Like Alexander Stephens his wonderful
vitality may enable him again to resume
his public duties, but his death at any
hour need occasion no surprise.
Congressman Lynch, Of Maine, has
concluded his arrangements for starting
a new paper here at an early day. 1t
is intended to be an independent Re-
publican journal, and not an anti
Blaine organ, as has been stated.
While no one yet has authority for
saying that Conkling will oppose Hayes
administration, evidence accumulates
through the conduct of his trusted
friends that he will not give it
cordial support, and that if lie breaks
with the President it will not be upon
the southern policy but upon the order
forbidding ofiice-holders engaging ac-
lively in managing political ma
chinery. On this point, unfortunately,
the cabinet is not thoroughly united.
Information received here fixes upon
the New York Custom-House officials
an intrigue for the defeat of George
William Curtis at the next Tuesday
primary in order to prevent that dis
tinguished apostle of civil service re-
form from going to the state conven-
tion to support the Presidents policy,
and that his defeat will be effected by
these means is not improbable.
The fact that the recent appointment
of minister to Sweden was made at the
suggestion of Blaine, is cited as evil
dence that the latter maintains good
personal relations with the President
and will not commit himself to offensive
hostility.
Minister Pierrepont's recall from
London and the appointment of Henry
S. Sanford as minister to Belgium, his
old position, are among the events an
ticipated in the early future.
Ex-senator Boutwell, says the new
edition of the Revised Statutes will be
completed in the manuscript by the 1st
of January. AS the Secretary of State
has two months for revision, it will
reach the printers in March, and prob
ably be issued in May.
Ohio advices indicate lack of en-
thusiam on either side in the pending
campaign, but cool-headed Republicans
anticipate victory nevertheless.
Postmaster General Key, Secretary
Schurz and H. L. Gosling, of Tennes-
see, left tonight for Louisville. They
will be Joined at Grafton tomorrow by
Secretary Evarts, his son and two
daughters. At Cincinnati they will
join the President tomorrow and pro-
ceed together to Louisville.

The Siege of Plevna.


London, Sept. 15.-There is hardly
room for doubt that the weeks opera
tions about Plevna did not result as ia
vorably for the Russo -Roumanian army
as was expected, in view of reports
from Russian sources. The brief Turk
ish bulletin about affairs at Plevna
reads: Since Friday the Russians have
made continuous assaults but have
been repulsed. We have recaptured
two redoubts on the Lovatz road which
recently fell into the enemy's hands. -
This comedies with detailed narratives
received and with later Russian bulle-
tins.
The friends of Russia have reason to
fear that the capture of Grivica redoubt
is of much less significance than was at
first represented; if so, Osman Pasha
may await his reinforcements without
fear of further Immediate molestation.
These reinforcements are, according to
Vienna dispatch, already on the way
from Sofia, whence most of the reserves
have been sent across the Balkans to
Orchamid.

Senator Spencer Married.

New York, Sept. 15.-Senator Spen-
Ger, of Alabama, was married in St.
Bridget's church Wednesday to May
Nunez, an actress connected until very
recently with the Fifth Avenue theatre.
He is AZ, and has had previous wife.
She is 25 and very beautiful. The we'd
ding was in private, being attended by
only small party of personal friends.
The reason for the secrecy was that she
was engaged to marry another suitor,
and it is said that he did not know that
he was to lose her.
After the ceremony they started on a
westward train, saying they were going
to Deadwood, but it is thought they are
keeping their real destination to them
selves.

guilty of contempt, fined five hundred
dollars, and fifty dollars for each day
he kept the papers from the grand jury,

to arrest him upon his further refusal
and the grand jury were thereupon
allowed access to his books and papers.
1t is supposed that the refusal is on
account of his wholesale divorce busi-
ness.

are worse off than ever. They have a
hydra-headed church to keep up-twelve
apostles, two counselors and all their

outfit to earn an honest living or starye.
