War Notes.

Count SchouValoff is supposed to be the bear
er of an answer to Lord Derby's note 1t
seems that Russia has taken advantage of the
occasion to declare that she is still in the posi-
ton previously held by her, and has only TAX
en- up arms for the amelioraton of the condl-
ton of the Christians. Besides these general
assurances, the answer is said to contain spec.
ial assurances about Constantinople.
On demand of Austria Little Wallachia will
be neutral ground
A Constantnople special says the report of
the capture of For. Fill near Sukem Kaleh by
the Turks is confirmed. The Russians 5000
strong) left their tents and war munitions
behind in their flight
The christians in the Island of Cyprus want
the British admiral to send man-of-war to
protect them should any necessity arise.
The Turkish Parliament will be dissolved
Immediately.
Grand. Duke Nicholas has communicated to
st. Petersburg his disappointment at the diff
Guilty Of coming to terms with the Ronmanian
government. 1t is probable the Romanians
will not assist the Russians after the passage of
the river.
A Vienna correspondent telegraphs that the
Servian government has sent the Porte an
energetic note declaring that it will recover the
the Turks refuse to evacuate it. Copies of the
circular will be sent to the European powers.
A Bucharest despatch says the Danube at
Gallatz is Is above the ordinary level.
A Vienna special says that according to the
latest intelligence the Gar will remain at
Kischerett for the present because the break
age of bridges is SO great as to block traffic on
Ronmanian railway lines.
The despatch from Bucharest, received by
cable late Sunday night, announcing the ar
rival there of the Gar and Czarowitch, was
incorrectly translated. 1t was the Grand Duke
Nicholas and son who arrived, and were re-
spectfuly but not cordially received by the
public.
London despatch says the European cabi-
nets have been for some days occupied in
considering the territorial changes in Asia,
which will result from the war. rbe basis of
final arrangement in Europe will be the
protocol
In consequence of Austria's representations,
the Porte has abandoned the idea of forming
Hungarian legion.

ST. LOUIS, June 4.-As the express train on
the st. Louis and San Francisco railroad reach
ed Woodend station from St. Louis last night,
the engine and baggage car left the track and
plunged down an embankment forty feet Deep
Samuel Richardson, fireman, and DR.. E. L. At
kinson, who was on the engine, were instantly
badly wounded that he died in two hours. Con-
ductor Wilson started for another engine, and
on the way heard pistol shots and ball passed
through his hat Several other shots were fred
and the passengers say that they saw five men
standing near. Two balls passed through the
baggage car: On examining the track it was
found that the fish bars connecting rails on both
sides of the TRACK had been unjointed and the
ends of the rails moved so that the train would
run down the embankment. No doubt this was
a scheme to run the whole train down the bank,
rob the express and plumber the passenger
trains. No clue to the perpetrators.

THE GEO. s. WIGHT.
A Survivor Tells the Story OF the Murder
of Her Passengers and Grew.

SAN FRANCISCO, June A survivor of the
wreck of the steamship George S. Wight has
been discovered in the person of an Indian
named Coma. He was recognized on the street
at Minaimo, B. c., last Friday and arrested and
brought to Victoria, V. l., yesterday. The Col
onist of today says that Coma has confessed to
the Superintendent of Police, after being duly
cautioned, that at night the boilers of the steam
ship exploded and she began to sink at once
Capt. Ainsley with four United States officers
and passenger got into boat and told Coma
who was on deck, to get in too. The rest of
the people were in bed or tried to escape by
another boat. The captains party, seven in all,
pull ed ashore near Cape Caution. They were
nearly naked and the Indians gave them blank
cts to keep them warm. A day or two after
wards three canoe loads of Indians came to the
spot and Capt. Ainsley offered the leader $500
to convey the ship-wrecked men to Fort Ru-
pert. -Four of the Indians were armed with
muskets with which they killed all the whites,
They then tied stones to their bodies and sunk
them in deep water. They robbed the bodies of
all the valuables, including the captains gold
watch and chain. They spared Coma but told
him if he ever dared to narrate the circum-
stances they would kill his father. Coma
thinks that all the people on board who were IN
bed at the time Of the explosion were drowned,
as the ship went down rapidly.
The prisoner was today confronted with four
Indians, who were brought in as prisoners by
the steamer Rocket and have since been in Jail
here, and identified two of them as belonging
to the party of murdere.s
