New York. April 1.-THE latest
English advices speak Of the excite
ment over the gold discoveries In south
ern India us undated. Some Of the
nugget stories remind one Of the earli-
er days of the California mining craze.
In the district Of Deyala, for instance,
we read Of pieces Of gold US large rs a
mans hand, found in the Pandi river,
and on the slope of Needle Rock
range, nuggets as big rs two hands
could compass;'' on the Pandi river be-
low Perishota crossing, ''layers of gold
an inch thick" have been brought to
light. A column might be filed with

Confirmation OF the Tesftmony-The
Cuipritr Not Cadets.

cuiprits Not Cadets
West Point, April 1.-THE CORES
pondent OF the New York Times de-
clined TO give authority for the state
ment that three cadets were heard
saying that Whitaker would be fixed,
etc, until Monday. when his counsel
would be present. The court said the
witness having sworn to tell the whole
truth, and not refusing TO give only
such information MS is polite, no i'm
portance would attach TO the news
given TO the press by him.
The recorder stated that be had been
unable to fnd any facts justifying the
correspondents story.
The correspondent then protested
against the courts unjust assumption,
that In retiring within his legal rights
under legal military counsel, lie was
violating his duty.
Second Lieut.. Coffin testified that
colored cadets were not hazed, although
white cadets were.
Gen. Schofield testified to the facts
already known regarding the previous
investigation, aud said he had informed
Whitaker that the result Of the inves-
tigation was prejudicial to him. Whit
taker made prompt and earnest de-
nial and demanded court of inquiry.
Whittaker's frankness impressed the
general that be could not be guilty.
After the investigation there were
reports that the guilty parties were
beyond West Point, and then the
authorities had to look elsewhere. In
the meantime Whitaker could not rest
under the imputation cast upon him,
and court Of inquiry was promptly
ordered. The bearing OF the corps OF
cadets and the bearing OF Whitaker
impressed the general with the inno-
cence OF both, and the clue outside had
also failed. This method Of inves-
tigation was adopted solely In justice
to Whitaker. He knew Of no other
notice.
Other testimony revealed how the
colored cadets had been ostracised and
ignored In the past.
The clerk Of the quartermaster's
department identified the handkerchief
found as the style issued TO the cadets,
but the points Of the necktie are differ
ent from those in his department. No
necktie has been issued TO Whitaker
since May 90, 'Ts. Witness testified
that that style Of handkerchief has not
been for sale at Highland Falls for six
mnnfha.

Chicago. April 1.-THE IHer 0cean's
Washington special says Professor
Baird sent to Speaker Randall to-day n
communication asking an appropriation
Of $50, 900 for the purpose Of continuing
the chronological researches among the
North American Indians, which Is now
being prosecuted under his direction as
secretary Of the Smithsonian institute.
Professor Baird states that ut no dis
tant time an opportunity for recording
the ethnology Of the United States win
disappear, as the Indian tribes in their
primitive condition are rapidly passing
away, and exhaustive researches now
being prosecuted within our own terri
tory by foreign nations, and the con-
tents Of aboriginal graves and mounds
being carried away almost in ship losds
10 foreign museums. Immense collec-
tions from the coasts Of California, Or
egon and Alaska have been recently
transmitted to the government museum
In Paris by an agent sent to the United
States for the purpose. Another French
expedition will soon be under way for
the almost virgin archaeological fields Of
Arizona and New Mexico. Professor
baird says the retention ny the country
within its confines Of It's own historical
monumentshas been considered Of such
moment that laws have been passed by
several foreign governments prohibiting
the exportationof antiquities, and while
II may not be practicable or desirable
Tor the United States to follow their
examples. we may ut least anticipate
foreigners by engaging In the work our
selves, and transferring the objects col
iected to the national museum In WASH
ington. Unless such action be taken at
an early day, 1t win be necessary to de-
pend upon European museums for ma
.erials for investigating antiquities Of
.ne United States. Accompanying the
letter Of Professor Baird is statement

London, April l7.-Ail the ministers
are in town also all liberal leaders ex-
cept Gladstone, who is at Hawardin,
where John Bright Is visiting him.
Speculation is rife respecting the CON-
position Of the new ministry, but there
has been no formal consultation among
liberals. The general impression Is
that Gladstone viii receive the pre-
miership, unless he should refuse Office.
The position and influence Of advanced
liberals, rs distinguished from moder-
ates or wings. seems likely to be very
strong.
