WASHINGTON, May 7.--Assisiaut Sec
retary H,.wley received dispatch an
nouncipg an additional subscription by
the .ynoica'e while he was at a cabinet
meeting. The telegram was the occas-
ion of mneh congratulation and express
sions were generally regarding the
favo able aspect of national finances.
The president signed the act amending
the ac; to aid in the construction of a
railroad and telegraph line from the
Missouri river to the Pacific Ocean.
ELLSWORTH. Me-, May NO sigpifi-
cance is attached to the visit of the
Cimbria of agents of the Union Pacific
and Lake Shore railroads. They only
come upon the rumor that the Russians
were destined for the Pacific coast.
They could get no hint from the officers
of any such intention, and returned
without any more knowledge of the
Russian plans than has already beer
telegraphel The rumor that British
steamer had been outside proves un-
founded.
The only trace of British espionage
is the vice consul. but the feeling here
is so intensely Russian no one seems in
ciined to talk will him. He expresses
surprise that the U. S. government has
not cutter here on watch. There is
nothing to watch. other than German
flag at anchor with only passengers on
board. The ships apers show the
Russians simply as passengers. Cabin
passengers are carried as pleasure tray
elers. and steerage passengers are
classed as tradesmen. Among other
prominent officers are Count Alexejeff.
