ward, about 100 feet having been con-
structed yesterday. 1t lie expected that
before the end of the week, it will be

A decision in the suit of Ann Eliza
against Brigham Young was rendered by
Judge Schaeffer, in Salt Lake City, yes.,
terday. The Judge decides that the
plaintiff is not entitled to a decree of
divorce, the alleged marriage being
polygamous, and therefore null and void;
also, that, "during the time plaintiff was
with defendant as polygamous wife, she
was serving him as menial servant,
and would be entitled to reasonable COM
pensation for her service; but, having re-
ceived ia this instance, in the form of
alimony pendente lite, more than such
services are shown by the proof to he
reasonably worth. she should go hence
without further compensation"

Russia Waging War in ASIA
The Last Sigh Of the Turk.
A FRANTIC APPEAL FOR THE
PROTECTION OF THE
TREATY OF PARIS,
ENGLANG's INTERESTS AT STAKE


BY CABLE TO THE N. Y. HERALD
LONDON, April %, 1877.
The Russian troops have not moved
farther westward than Barboschi. Their
delay is variously commented on. The
most plausible explanation is that their
rapid advance at first was due to the
persistent report that the Turks intended
to destroy the railway bridge. 1t is not
probable that the Russian forces now in
this province will move much further un
til overtaken by supports, now detained
by the floods which interrupt the rail
ways. 1t is stated that the Russians in
tend laying railway line from Berlat or
Tekutch to Busco. This will connect the
two lines ofrailway now existing and will
considerably shorten the distance be-
tween Jassy and Bucharest, and relieve
theRussian line of communications which
is in constant danger of interruption by
the Turkish fotilla. The construction OF
the road will be very easy. The rails are
already here. 1t is said the Russian
headquarters will first be established al
Ploiesti, north of Bucharest. Iastill think
a considerable interval will elapse before
there is any serious collision with the
Turks. Great military activity is obsel,
vable in Bucharest The Roumanian
government is evidently making every
effort to be fully prepared for the course
TO be determined on by the Chamber.
THE INVASION OF ASIA MINOR.
All the information regarding Russian
advance upon Turkey in ASIA comes
| from Turkish sources, and is, of course,
colored to suit the occasion. 1t is there's
fore to be read with this understanding.
| This mornings ADVERTISERS special de-
spatch from Pera reports that the town
of Poti has been bombarded and burnt by
the Turks. A telegram from Erzoreun
says the Russians are invading Turkish
territory between Batoum and Bayasid
and have seized G, 1000 bushels of grain al
Adjakooly. The Turks are advancing
toward Alexandropol in three columns.
J BETTER GUARDIANS THAN THE TURKS.
This war, so far as the Russians are con
cerned, Is evidently to be tempered with
all the humane principles OF nineteenth
century warfare. The Russians clearly
mean to appeal to the world for mora
support by putting their conduct in con-
trast with the brutal butcheries ofthe de
fenceless Bulgarians by the Turks. Thi.
summer will be different from last.

of years this mighty force has roared and
dashed itself in fury against It's rock bound
channel but aside from beinga grand spec.
tacle 1t has been almost valucless to hu.
manity unless vendors OF Indian trinke,s,
swindling hotels and bilking hackmen are

power Is to be set at work IN the interests
of human industry. This strength of IL
900, 900 horses is to be harnessed and placed
under the guidance and control of man.
The company which was some time age
formed for the purpose OF utilizing thii
great water force seems to be in earnest.
Every effort that money and energy can
exert is being exercised to put this
enormous power in trim for driving ma
chinery. The water which passes ovel
the falls is estimated at one hundred toni
per hour, and its perpendicular descent
may be taken at $50 feet without iuclud

fall Of $50 feet. The force represented by
the principal fall alone is 10, 800, 600 horse
power, an amount which, IL produced by
steam. would require an expenditure o
not less than 2G6, 900, 900 tons of coal pei

275, 900, 900 tons Of coal produced from the
mines throughout the world annually 1t il
readily to be seen that Niagara, once
under the control of man, would exert
