SITTING BULL.
What Major Walsh Says Abou, Hir

What Major Walsh Says Abou, Him.
Chicago, Feb. 1l.-Major Walsh,
commandant of the Manitoba mounted
police, was in Chicago to-day. Regard
ing Sitting Bull, he says:
81 saw Sitting Bull Dec. 20ti. Since
then L have not met him personally,
but have heard from him frequently,
and received a message direct from
him on the Goth of January, the day 1
left Fort Walsh. Sitting Bull and his
personal followers are now in camp at
the east end of Cypress mountains,
where a company of police is stationed.
Sitting Bull came to the post with five
lodges and said he intended to remain
there during the winter. He reported
to the officer in charge there, and sent
word to me. He said:
"T have come here to stay this
winter. have heard that the Ameri-
cans intend to go to war with us. 1
want to stay here, that you may see
what l am doing {"

London, Feb. lit seems now that
the British and Russians alone may be
present at Constantinople. Such a
position would be one of the gravest
anxiety. Everything may turn on the
character of the Russian occupation.
An occupation in force with no appa-
rent limit in point Of time would
throw on our government very grave
responsibility. The moment is one at
which a few hasty words or single
hasty act may precipitate conflict.
The government has laid down certain
limits, beyond which we can't remain
Indifferent to the advance of Russia.
If these limits are passed it will be
their duty to act promptly and boldly,
but it is equally their duty to place nc
hasty construction on acts which may
be capable of two interpretations.

PENNSYLVANIA.


Philadelphia, Feb. 11.-This morn
ing one of the arches of the bridge over
the Schuylkill river at South street fell
in, carrying with it nine other arches,
and completely wrecking 300 feet of
bridge. The part which gave way
rested on piles in the marsh on the
western bank of the river, and this pill
ing has been gradually sinking in the
mud. A large number of workmen
were engaged in snoring the defective
arch at the time of the accident, but
they were warned in time and all es-
capped uninjured. The bridge was
built of iron and granite, and cost
originally $4,000. The loss by the
accident will be about 100000.

WOMEN suffrage was raised or low
cred almost to the level of party ques-
tion by the vote of the House committee
on the judiciary last week in consider
ing the proposed sixteenth amendment
to the Constitution of the United States.
As that amendment would give to the
women the ballot, the vote will be
scanned with interest by the friends of
"the cause" Every Republican on the
committee voted for the amendment
and only one Democrat was gallant
enough to join them. We also observe
with alarm that the South was solid in
the negative. Is the Republican party
about to bare its arm for 'sthe cause?''

Mrs. CHISHOLM left Washington a
few days ago for Jackson, Miss.
She will appear against the Gullys
and other criminals of Kemper county
who murdered her husband and chill
dren. The pending trial, however, is
not for the murder of Chisholm and
Glover, but for conspiracy against the
laws Of the United States to deprive
citizens of their political rights, the
indictments being found under the
civil rights act.

London, Feb. 1.-THE correspon-

telegraphs: can state positively that
orders have been sent to the Russian

Constantinople, Russia is obliged to
adopt similar measures, but Russia has
no intention of aggravating the situa-
tion.

THE PRESIDENT has written a letter
to Attorney General Devens on the
subject of Gen. Anderson's conviction
in New Orleans. 1t is predicted that
while temperate in tone, regret is ex-
pressed that such proceedings should
have taken place, as apart from all
other considerations, they tend to dis
turb conciliation which it was hoped
would be satisfactory to all parties in
Louisiana.

whether the protection of British sub
jects is the sole reason for sending the
fleet the Bosphorus. The Agence
Russo declares that the facts don't
justify the reasons alleged for sending

s, the safety Of Christians is no way
threatened.

new rule which has caused a furry in
Republican circles. Postmasters for

another insidious blow at the Republi-
can party, and are more than ever
convinced that the Presidents southern
policy is a failure.
