FORT DESTROYED BY LAND SLIDES.

EOET DESTROYED BY LAND SLIDES.
ST. JOHN, N. B., March 12.-Another land
slide at Fort Dufferin carried away 400 feet of
the bank on the eastern side ofjthe breakwater.
The break now extends to within a few feet Of
the guns and has taken out 100 feet of the
fence which enclosed the battery.
GREAT ICE GORGE.
LoCKHAvEN, March 1.-THE ice gorge, four
miles west of Lockhaven, gave way at 10
o'clock last night, carrying everything before
it until it reached the Queen Run railroad
bridge, which withstood the shock. The ice
passing on reached here at II o'clock. The
water rose four feet and carried the ice far up
the banks along the city front. No serious
damage was done in the city, but it is feared
the boom piers have sustained much damage.
The damage at Queens run and Forrandsyille
IS very heavy. Alog house was demolished and
another house carried some distance and lodged
against the mountain, the occupants barely es-
Gaping. This morning the Philadelphia & Erie
Railroad company sent 500 men to the scene to
clear the track. They expect tomorrow night
to get trains through. In many places both
tracks and road bed are washed away and two
culverts have been washed out.
FEARFUL GALE IN ILLINOIS.
ST. LOUIS, March 12.-Information has
reached here that violent wind storm,
amounting almost to a tornado, passed over
the southern part OF Macoupin county, ILL.,,
yesterday, destroying houses, barns and other
property. Edward Mcdonald, living near the
southern m line of the county, and his grandchild
were killed, and several other members of his
family severely injured. One or two othel
deaths are reported, but the facts are not OBJ
talnable. The storm is said to have been about
quarter OF a mile wide and came from the
northwest.

Continued Excitement Over the Withdraw
al of Trains on the Pembina Branch.-A
Stage Line Probable to Bridge Over the
Time Until the Opening of Navigation
Temp rance Alliance Railway Bridge.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, Man., March 12.-The post
master here has been notified that trains will
cease running on the Pembina branch to-
morrow. Only one more mail will be brought
in. What will be done in the matter is not
yes decided on. The postmaster general has
been telegraphed for instructions. 1t is
probable that line of stages will be put on
between here and the boundary till the
opening of navigation. Great indignation
is felt against Willis and the st. Paul s.
Pacific, the stoppage of trains being regarded
as done to annoy Manitoba people, with the
object of throwing the road into the hands
of the st. Paul & Pacific.
A branch of the Dominion alliance for the
suppression of the liquor traffic organized
here last night.
The question of railway bridge across
the Red river at this point is again being
agitated, but no definite action has yet been
taken.
The GLOBE is authorized to say that tho
st. Paul g. Pacific road is not responsible
for the stoppage of trains on the Pembina
branch. On the contrary, that road is ready
and anxious to accommodate the people of
Manitoba, and has no connection with Mr..
Willis or his movements. GLOBE.

Especial Telegram to the Globe.l
ROCHESTER,, Mimi, March 12.-The
second annual session of the grand lodge of
Knights of Honor met in Odd Fellows hall
at A. M. with nineteen delegates in at
tendance. Grand officers were elected for
the ensuing term as follows: Grand dicta-
tor, r. T.. Mccormick, Waseca; grand vice
dictator, g. H. Roberts, Rochester; grand
assistant dictator, L. G.. Wheeler, Austin;

Wabashaw; D. 0. Searles, Owatonna.
Your representative learns from good au-
thority that the old maxim, "What costs US
most we prize the highest is verified in
this order, as the assessments on deaths, like
leaden hail in battle, fell thick and fast upon
the boys, coming since November at the rate
of three per month, making it by far the
most expensive society insurance of all the
many orders in the State.
The principal business transacted was the
adoption of grand lodge constitution and
the reports of the several committees At 6
P. M. the lodge met in Rommel's hall, where
a bountiful collation. was served by the
ladies of members of the fraternaI LODGE,
after which the tables were set aside and
there was sound of revelry by night and
the happy dancers tripped the light fantastic
till the dawning of the day.
The next meeting will be at Owatonna the
second Wednesday in March, 1880.
There is lodge of mutual aid just insti-
tuted here with twenty-five charter mem:

ENGLISH GRAIN,

Greater Confidence Generally Shown, and
the Advance Noted Last Week Main
tained.
LONDON, March 12.-The Mark Lane Express
says: Offerings of English wheat have been
moderate both at Mark Lane and in the coun-
try. The aspect of trade shows greater conf
dence on the part of buyers and a more active
demand than for some time past. Prices con-
tinue to improve. The advance of shilling
per quarter IN both English and foreign wheat
was well maintained at market Monday last,
when, with the unusually light imports, mill
ers bought with tolerable freedom. Suisse
quent markets held in London have, it is true
been less animated, but holders have shown no
inclination to low pretensions now that wheat
stocks have fallen a line and confidence in the
attitude of the American markets and the re-
sales of fine Russian and American have been
made at an advance of one shilling and six
pence per quarter from the recent lowest point
except maize, which has given way from three
pence to six pence per quarter, under the pres
sure of continued liberal imports. Business in
feeding corn has not quotably changed. The
demand is mainly of retail consumption ma.
ture at about late rates. Sales of English
wheat last week amounted to- "A ,49l quarters at
39s. Id. against 80, 748 quarters at Sos. 3D. for
the corresponding period of the previous year.
Imports into the United Kingdom for the week
ending March LIST were 537,721 hundred weights
of wheat and 49,, 903 hundred weights of -four.

MPEAoHMENT-oR ORDER OF THE DAY.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF THE DAY.
z LONDON, March IA Paris correspondent
says the order of the day was shelving the i'm
parchment, and that in order to secure support
of the majority of the republicans it must be
couched in such terms that the De Broplie-
Hochbouet cabinets, while escaping the judg-
ment of any formal tribunal, will be neverthe
less condemned. Such an order of the day.
though the right could not vote for it, would
receive the support of large majority of the
republicans, and would be adopted. Such will
doubtless be the issue Of the debate.
STARTLING REVELATIONS.
The committee of inquiry in the acts of the
ministry of the 10th of May, met to receive a
communication of very important documents
which have been addressed to it's president. 1t
is reported during the debate of the chamber of
deputies tomorrow Louis Blanc will make
startling revelations. The debate will proba-
bly, proceed as folloWs: Leon Renault will
combat the committees conclusions. Wadding-
ton, president OF the ministry, will explain
why the government opposes impeachment.
Brisson, Nader, DeMentjan, Louis Blanc and
Lockray will support impeachment. Leroyer,
minister of justice, will make the matter
cabinet question. It is believed none of the
ministers of the 10th of May will speak, and
probably none will even attend the sitting.

THE POPE AND TEMPORAL, POWER


ROME March l2.-The Vatican organ, Voice
Delta Verita, gives great prominence to the
following: Several liberal papers have re-
iterated the statement that the Pope, in conse-
quence of the pressure of Cardinal Manning or
the French bishops, has changed his policy and
ranged himself behind the non possums and
revindication of the temporal power. We are
still t., most decidedly contradict this fiction.
The Pope in no other way than did his prede-
cessor, has protected, and will protect until
such provisions are made as right and reason
require for the dignity and liberty of the holy
secretary.

The Treaty.

VIENNA, March 12.-Lord Salisbury's reply of
the 26th of January to the Russian representa-
ton, made January Sd, as to the danger likely
to arise if the work of the international COM
missioners be retarded by disagreements,
points out that the Russian delegates on the
Dubrudsha boundary commission have been
opposed to all their colleagues relative to the
Silistria question. The Russian members of
the commission for settling the boundaries and
constitution of Eastern Roumella, also occu-
pied the same position. Lord Salisbury says
he does not cite these facts for the purpose of
throwing the blame on the Russian delegates,
who doubtless had sufficient reasons for their
conduct; but only to defend the British dele
gates from the charge of obstruction. The
British government is aware that the exc
cution of the treaty. is a DELEGATE
and will continue to impress upon its repre-
sentatives the necessity Of pursuing a concilia-
tory policy to which Prince Gortschakoff al
ludes, at the same time the government would
be wanting in sincerity if it did not point out
certain cases in which Russian agents, disre-
garding the loyal and enlightened policy Of the
czar, has declared it his wish to pursue the
treaty. The conduct of Russian functionaries
in Eastern Roumelia distinctly tends to i'm
press the people that they will be united with
Bulgaria, and even shows disposition to fur
nish them with means for resisting the estab-
lishment of a separate reg ime.
Lord Salisbury cites in proof of these accusa-
tions the fact that the government of Eastern
Roumelia is subordinate to the government of
Bulgaria, and as apparently intended to remain
SO until the close of occupation, thus making
the transition to the new regime as sudden and
abrupt as possible, and decidedly tending to
encourage resistance to the transition. Also,
that recruits for the militia are indriscrimi-
nately drawn from Bulgaria and Roumelia,
while according to the treaty the forces of the
two provinces should be distinct. The British
government cannot believe, considering the
sentiments the emperor has expressed that
these dispositions are in accordance with his
will, and consider that they should cease as
soon as possible. Roumelia's resistance TO the
treaty cannot be successful it will have to deal
with far superior forces, but it might lead to
renewalsof the untold sufferings endured in
the late war. The responsibility of fostering
an illusion which might lead to such conse-
quences is very grave.
The Times in a leading editorial, referring to
the passage about superior forces, says: It il
imperative for the British government to make
1T plain that it will insist upon fulfllment OF
the treaty. On this poi mt it is satisfactory to
observe that Lord Salesbury's dispatch is per
fectly explicit.

the match draw as the men would not have
time to finish, it being then nearly time for the

Attempted Robberies.

At an early hour yesterday morning
a young lady at the residence of Mrs.
Eliza Caldwell, on Thirteenth street,
heard some walking about down stairs,
and screamed for help. The burglar, for
so it was, became alarmed and made
himself scarce without having secured
any booty. 1t was found he had pried
open a shutter and gained admission TO
a front room. On the door were the
marks OF jimmy, but the lock had re-
fused to yield.
Yesterday morning when the family
of Lucius Hoge, on Fifteenth street,
arose it was discovered that some one
had been rummaging through the lower
story of the house, but as nothing was
missing it was supposed the thief had
taken fright and left. No clue to either
case has been discovered.
