Conklin's Denial.

Washington, April 1S.-It is expect
ed that Conklin will take some notice in
the Senate to-day Of the reported inter-
view with him in the New York World.
In alluding to its publication Mr..
Conkling has this to say: '.It was fur
nished by John j. Miner, discharged
employe of the Utica Repu slican, who
was not long ago discharged by the
managers of that paper, with which L
had nothing to do. He has since that
event cherished feelings of great invet-
erracy to them and to me. am inform
ed that he sold the article which ap-
pears to-day for large sum. However
this may be, lie pretends to give in it
conversations which were not only pri-
vate, but by hospitality. 1 invited him
to my house, talked with him there
in confidence. He took no notes, no
memoranda in my house, he never used
paper or pencil. was not aware that
any notes were taken. Months after
he attemps to reproduce these CONVEX
sations. He has misquoted me in many
things, he has misconceived in others.
The six columns in the World that l
have just finished reading abound in
misstatements, and taken as a whole in
their connection, are untrue. They do
not give my utterances. 1 do not know
that | have anything more to say

The Mexican Awards.

Washington, April Is. The bill re-
ported from the Judiciary committee
to-day, providing for the distribution
of awards of the Mexican claims COM
mission, is the bill introduced by Sena-
tor Davis on the first inst, amended by
the insertion of a specific provision con-
cerning awards in the contested cases
Of Benjamin We'll and the L'Abra Min
ing company. The President of the
United States is directed to determine
within the next six months whether
there is probable cause to believe that
the honor of the United States, or the
consideration of justice and equity re-
Quire these awards, or either of them,
to be set aside or new trial to be had
in respect of them. If he concludes
they should not be paid, they shall be
suspended to await action hereafter by
the two governments; but if he does not
so determine within six months, they
are to be paid in the same manner and
proportions afterwards.
The rest of the bill provides in brief
that the installments received from
Mexico, shall be Immediately distribu-
ted in rotable proportions among the
corporations or individuals in whose fa-
vor the awards were made, or to their
legal representatives or assigns. The
Secretary of State is first required to
deduct the expenses and a commission
of about S115,000. But the fund to be
distributed is to be increased by pay
ment to the Secretary of State from the
United States treasury of amounts ag-
gregating about s15o,00O, which were
awarded to Mexican citizens by the
commission and deducted from the
amount payable by Mexico.
The Secretary of State is further re-
quired to deduct and retain from his
payments, any amount due the United
States from the persons or corporations
in whose favor the awards were made
by the commissions.

ACROSS THE WAY.
Progress of the Efforts to Sc
cure a Congress.
The Situation More Hopeful.

London, April 1s.-The Journal de
st. Petersburg says that Germany con-
tinues its mediatory efforts with dis
erection, zeal and disinterestedness, en-
couraging the strongest hope.
The Echo says, we are able to state
on authority that invitations to the
congress will be issued tonight. The
treatise of sc and III will be laid on
the table and compared with the treaty
of San Stefano. The Echo news is sup
plemented by the statement that the
Powers have agreed to Bismarck's sug-
gestion that the Ambassadors at Berlin
should hold conference TO arrange the
course of proceedings at the proposed
congress, the time of the meeting, etc.
The respective governments have been
formally requested to instruct their
Ambassadors accordingly.
st. Petersburg, April 1s.--It is an
nounced that Gen. Todleben will leave
to-day for San Stefano, charged with n
special mission from the Gar.
London, April 18.-The dispatch of
troops from India to Malta is the lead
ing topic of political discussion. 1t is
regarded by the supporters of the gov.
ernment as only the natural accompan-
iments of other precautionary measures
and not indicative of belligerent inten-
tions.
London, April ls.-Accounts from
Berlin and Vienna are still hopeful.
The congress will meet shortly. The
persistence with which England and
Russia are maintaining their positions
concerning the congress, is held to
meen that the difference is II radical
one, and that each power sees in the
proposal of the other an attempt to
prejudice before hand the character of
the Congress.

NEW YORK.


New York. April 1S.-A letter from
Havana says the insurgent chief Ceci-
lilo Gonzales, in surrendering to the
government authorities at Calimette,
jurisdiction of Colon, made an address
to his men, absolving them from their
oath of alligence to the constitution of
Cuba, and encouraging them to enter
resolutely into the thought of peace
with a government which will receive
them with the benevolence of father.
Modesto Diaz and twenty-four other
prisoners have, at their own request,
been taken to Santo Domingo city in a
Spanish man-of-war. Great movement
of passengers by coast steamers con-
tinue. Many Cubans who had taken
refuge at Key West are returning, and
steamers from New York and neighbor-
ing islands are bringing many Cuban
families returning from voluntary ex-

War Preparations Still Continue.

oUll SOutlluG.
London, April 1S.-Parliament closed
for Easter holidays with the expressed
hopes that the situation was more
peaceful. Private dispatches received
by the government tonight are of a
disturbing character, and the Queen
has called special council of Ministers
at Osborne Castle. Friday is the last
day for the reserves to come in, but
they are flocking to the standard daily in
larger numbers than was expected.
Preparations for war continue with un-
demonstrative interest. If delay is ad-
vantageous to the Russians the English
are taking the advantage also to collect
armies. She will not rely on the navy
for offense alone. The contingent of
two hundred thousand troops from In
dia has been ordered to Malta. 1t is
now known that the Duke of Edinburg
was relieved of his command of the
Sultan because he permitted the Rus
sian officers to inspect his ships, and
plans for resisting torpedoes. Accounts
in several leading journals are discuss
ing the question of priyateering, and
it is believed at the council this day it
will be discussed with a view of asking
the Russian government for an expla-
nation in some official way.

WHEN Samuel j. Tilden heard of the
death of William NJ. Tweed, he re-
marked complacently that there had
been time when his death would have
been great public calamity, but that
now fortunately there were other men
as skilled and as efficient as he in the
art of manufacturing Democratic ma
jorities in New York city. Tweed
could not have been spared in 1868.
But there was Kelley for 1876, who
bids fair to live until 1880.
