CABLE CHRONICLES.
ENGLAND'S SOUTH AFRICAN WAR.
The ZuIus Concentrated in Large Masses
in Dense Jungle-engllsh Labor
Troubles; Conflict imminent
The Egyptian Crisis.
The Zulu War.

LONDON, April additional advices
from Cape Town about the disaster TO
the British convoy, on the lntombe
river, March 18th, report that OF the
British troops, it is thought, forty wagon
drivers and followers, were killed.
Twenty-Five Zulu corpses were found
on the field of battle. 1t is believed
that many more were drowned. The
Zulus had ample time to get news OF the
convoy, as it was detained at the ford
three days by heavy rains. The
ford was only four miles from
Lunebing. 1t is thought there was
great carelessness in selecting the posi-
ton of the camp and in neglecting TO
send out larger force to meet the con-
vOv, Col. Pearson, from Ekowe. He
can hold out ten days longer, till the 4th
OF April. His provisions only are
short. He has plenty of ammunition.
Scouts report that the Zulus are conCen-
trated in large masses eleven miles north
of the Tugela river. They are in dense
jungle and their number is unascertaln-
able.
Russian Revolutionary Committee.
Berlin, April 9.-The Russian Revolu-
tiOnary Committee sent letters to all the
Imperial dignitaries at St. Petersburg,
saying, though they do nOtintend to at
tack the Car, they will continue to kill
his attendant, especially the heads of
police departments, so long as the treat
ment Of political prisoners is unamelior-
ated.
English Labor Troubles.
LONDON, April 9.-The miners in the
Houghton and Seatam districts have
determined to destroy the property of
the owners and managers. One hundred
police are in Seatam Hall, and conflict
is imminent. The colliery managers
are leaving or barricading their houses.
LONDON, April 5.-There were serious
riots in the cOlliery villages, last night.
In Durham, sixteen policemen, who
were protecting the nOn-strikers, were
injured, and house wrecked. The ri
Oting was resumed to-day, and it is
feared may become general among the
strikers.
The Egyptian Crisis.
LONDON, April 9.--The Standard has
good reason for stating that France and
England will first approach the khedive
i'm q firm but friendly manner, and afford
him an opportunity to retire to retrieve
his deplorable blunder. Should he fail to
avail himself thereof, the Porte will be
seriously invited to take the matter into
urgent consideration. The Sultan
would be amply justified in calling on
the khedive to resign.
Cruel Treatmsnt of Prisoners.
LONDON, April 9.-RepOrts come from
Kicf that the political prisoners there
are most cruelty treated. Many have
been shot while attempting to escape.
The governor OF the prison has received

DEAR SIR: The United States Alaska,

/ have only time TO say that from Capt.
Brown, of the information to me of his
orders and intentions, this place will
soon be left in greater danger
than ever. The Indians are incensed
at sendingthe murderers below, and the
ChilcOts have already arrived to demand
redress. They openly jeer Walcott as
unable to protest us, and that is true,
as we might all be massacred in sight of
her and without her power to prevent it,
for she can't land a man to help
Us and could not fire on friends
and foes alike in a fight, leaving
OF Alaska will confirm the Indians in
the belief that the government does not
care To protect the country OF which
they openly boast. Now, | know the
purpose exists, and is fixed among
them to Sacktown, which involves a
massacre. OF course | have done all |
could to bring these facts to the atten-
tiOm OF the government, and it seems
useless To- he TO attempt any more.

dispatch SAYS the British gunbOat, Os-

where she was relieved on the 81 inst.
by the United States ship Alaska. All
was quiet at the time OF the Osprey's
departure. On the night OF the 18th
ult. trouble was feared, and at the re-
quest Of Colonel Dull, the collector Of
the port requested the commander of
the Osprey to hold il in readiness TO
land at the moment the signal was Civ
en- from the shore. The request was
complied with, and the crew OF the
L. :. revenue steamer Oliver Walcott,
living OF the Indian village, also stood
To quarters all night, but no occasion
arose for their services. Afterwards it
appeared that number OF Chilcat
Indians, recently arrived from the
north. had been holding drunken
carouse with their friends in the will
age, during which a quarrel arose aud
a Sitka chief named AnahOOls, who is
friendly To the whites and lives within
the stOckade, was severely wounded.
one of his asSailants was also badly
hurt. The Chilcats threatened to kill
AnahOols in retaliation. 1t was feared
that the quarrel might result in general
attack on the whites on account OF their
friendly relations with AnahOols. Aside
from lhis no trouble arose during the
Osprrys stay at Sitka.
