WASHINGTON.


Washington, March 1S.-News from
New Orleans as to the action by the
Louisiana supreme court to-day, on
application for new trial in the case
of General Anderson, is awaited with
great interest in Washington. Louisi-
ana representatives express some fears
that the court may not finally DE-
eide to grant new trial, and that per-
haps it may make no decision at all.
The decision can be postponed for two
weeks, but the special session of the
Legislature must terminate next Fri
day, and after that time a pardon of
Anderson by Governor Nichols can't
be, made effectual until the Legislature
convenes in December. Information
has been received by Louisiana Republi-
cans here that Governor Nichols will
not pardon Anderson if the supreme
court refuses new trial, and that he
will in any event postpone his action
until. the supreme court renders its de-
cision. Secretary Sherman, however,
holds different opinion, and believes
Anderson will receive full pardon at n
very early date.

Toronto, March 1S.-O'Donovan Ro-
sa lectured in st. Patrick's hall this
evening, to an audience of about one
hundred. Beyond a continuous volley
of stones for an hour and half at the
lecture room, riddling all the windows,
no damage was done and nobody hurt.
The streets in the vicinity of the hall
were crowded by thousands of people,
who apparently congregated to see the
fight, but not to participate. Rosa not
being known, he walked through the
crowd to the hall unnoticed. The lee
ture was brief and rather tame. At
the conclusion the audience left by
twos and threes, and Rosa again passed
through the crowd unrecognized, and
was driven off in cab. AT midnight
the streets are still thronged with dis
orderly crowds, and should Rosa's
whereabouts become known, it is feared
Il desperate conflict will take place.

FOREIGN.
Warlike Outlook.

London, March 1S.-Although the
Russo-Turkish treaty has been ratified
by both powers, the situation of affairs
is regarded as very dangerous to the
peace of Europe; and while ostensibly
there is no desire for war by any power,
there are indications that the general
drift is warlike rather than peaceful.
London, March 1S.-A special from
st. Petersburg says: The treaty leaves
good many points open. 1t reserves
the question of the Straits for Congress
and leaves the southern frontier of Bull
garia to be determined by the inter-
national commission. According to
the nationality of the inhabitants the
question of the annexation of part of
Kovela is left to the Commission and
thus serious difficulty on that point are
avoided.
A telegram from Vienna states that
Count Andrassy, on being asked in the
Budget Committee on the Austrian
delegation, whether he meant to resist
the formation of the new Sclav states,
said the problem wasn't to undo the
results of the war, but to harmonic
with the rights and interests of Europe
and Austria.
