WITHDRAWAL OF TROOPS FROM
ALAsKA.-A telegram from Wash
ington City of the 11th inst. brings
a confirmation of the rumor prevail
ing last week, relative to the removal
Of troops from Alaska, from which it
appears that the question has en-
gagged the attention os the Cabinet,
and numerous letters on the subject
have passed between the Secretary
of War and the Secretary of the
Treasury. One reason urged for their
withdrawal was that cases Of conflict
frequently arose in this Territory on
account Of arrests made by the mill
tary in Alaska of persons who were
brought to this Territory for trial,
there being no civil authorities in
Alaska, and besides the expense of
keeping a military force there was
greater than at any other point. Re-
Gently a fire destroyed a portion of
the barracks, and it was estimated it
would require $4,000 to repair the
damage. Companies G and NJ, of
the Fourth Artillery, numbering 73
men, have been stationed at Sitka,
and Company A, of the same regi-
ment, numbering 35, have been sta
toned at Fort Wrangel, making a
total Of -108 soldiers located in the
Territory. 1t has finally been de-
termined that they shall be with
drawn, Gen. Mcdowell is directed to
act accordingly, and the control of
the TerritOry transferred to the
Treasury Departments - =

. 1HEgt4PENDING w AR.-NOW that
there is no longer any doubt respect
ing the opening of hostilities be-
tween Russia and Turkey, brief
reference to the events that have
in part conspired to bring about the
present conditioned affairs may not
be without interest. Montenegro is
one of the so-called Christian prov.
inees of Turkey. It's relations to
the Ottoman government have never
been of an amicable nature, Though
conquered by the Turks many years
ago, the people have never fully ac-
knowledged the authority Of the
Porte, but have continued to assert
"a sort of independence. This rest
less spirit has been encouraged and
fostered by Russia. For more than
a century, anda half this power has
paid the Montenegrins an annual
subsidy, virtually on an agreement
that they should continue to dispute
Turkish authority and maintain an
attitude of hostility to thesT1rkish
government. Montenegro IS limited
in extent, its area being only 1880
square miles, with a population Of
10000. The people are mostly
Slsvs, and their religion is that Of
the Greek or Eastern Church. Prior
to the conquests of the Mussulmans
in Europe, Montenegro belonged to
the great Seryian kingdom, which
was overthrown by the Turks in
1889. The Prince Of Montenegro,
continued to assert his Independence
and the country was not, conquered
till 17l4, but it did mot then fully
admit the authority of the conqueror,
and has almost ever since coniinued
to maintain an irregular warfare. In
1896 the Porte undertook to reduce
the Montenegrins to submission, but
/ was defeated in a great battle in
which 10000 Turks persisted. In
other provinces in Turkey, as Servia
and Bulgaria, most of the inhabi-,
tants are also of the Slavic race and
adherents Of the Greek church. The
misgovernment of the country and
the atrocious cruelties of the Turks
toward. the inhabitants have created
sentiment which enables Russia to
take without hindrance q decided
position against the Ottoman gov
ernment. In race and religion the
people of the provinces are identical
with those of Russia, and the long
continued relations OF the Cars
government with the Montenegrins
makes it possible and even necessary
for Russia, under the circumstances
now existing, to appear openly as
their champion and protector. 1t is
another incident, like the battle of
Lepanto and the deliverance of vi
emma by John Sobieski, in the re.
striction and limitation of Moham-
medan powerA Inthe treat sweep of
history it is phase of the reaction
from the Saracenic conquests of the
middle ages.

The facts were that the lard was part
OF a school section which he had leased
from the county commissioners according
to law passed by the Territorial Legis-
lature authorizing such leases. The de
fendant therefore supposed he had the le-
gal right to do as he did, but the Court
ruled that such leases were void and
therefore Mr.. ChenOweth was a trespas-
ser. Inc best lawyers hold that the
school lands Of Territory are held by the
United States In trust for the future State
aud that the Territory has no right to dis
pose of or lease them. Action will be
