LONDON. Feb. s..
A telegram from St. Petersburg says

court martialed this or next month.
He Is charged with burying Russian
prisoners alive. The Russians are so
exasperated against him that he rarely
leaves his lodgings. The police are in
structed to prevent q public demon
stration against him.
OTTAWA, Feb. s.
The Dominion Parliament opened to-
day with a speech from the throne by
the Governor General. He alluded
with satisfaction to the settlement of
the fishery question, and referred in
the following language TO the American
Indians on Canadian soil: Early in the
past summer a large body OF Indians
under Sitting Bull, from the United
States, crossed into British Territory to
escape from the United States troops,
and have since remained on the Cana
dian side. The United States Govern
ment made a friendly but u%nsuccess-
full attempt TO induce these Indians to
return to their reservations. 1t is to
be hored such arrangements may yet
be made as may lead TO their perma-
tent and peaceful settlement in the
United States, and thus relieve Canada
of a source OF uneaSiness and heavy
expenditure.

LONDON, Feb. 8.
The Times, in its leading editorial,
says it hoes not share in the excitement
and alarm which yesterdays news
created in many quarters, but thinks
the time has come when the whole re
sponsibility of action ought to be
thrown upon the Government, and a
generous support be accorded it. If
the legitimate interests of the country
are to be protected, the Government
may have to act, and to act promptly.
1t is impossible for the opposition to
act for them, or take their places, and
it ought now to be left to them to take
the course they may deem decesssry
on their W responsibility. 1t isto be
hoped that the division of last night
will close the controversy, which, how.
ever properly raised at the outset, is
now wholly out of place.
