MOVEMENTS OF THE OFFICERS AND MEN ON
THE CIMBRIA.
eELLswoRTH, Me-, May Pa telegram
Yesterday from Southwest Harbor reports
that Captain Loman, commander OF the
Russian navy, and eight officers left in the
steamer Lewiston. A paymaster and two
other officers and eleven sailors leave on
Thursday for Philadelphia. The paymaster
will return June 18th. AS far as may be
predicted from this telegram, and from the
general outlook Of things, the officers who
have left will soon take charge OF the naval
forces and ornaments for which they have
been negotiating, which can be leadily
equipped and manned by Russian sailors.
The sailors are all stationed on the steamer
Cmbria. where up to this time they have
made their headquarters. and are in readi-
ness for movement at any time. 1t Is I'M
certain how long the Cimbria will remain
at her present anchorage, or to what port
she will sail on her departure.

and other classes Of dry goods which are
subject to al Ualorem duties. Feeling they
had common causes OF complaint, leading
houses in their lines OF business have pri-
vately held two meetings, which have re-
suited in the adoption OF memorial to
Secretary Sherman reciting their grievances
and praying for relief. 1t was signed by
large number Of prominent firms who re.
present an immense amount Of business and
