NEW YORK, May 1.-THE Boerd Of Trade
and Transportation to-day adopted report
submitted by the Committee on Legislation
showing the rapid increase of exports from
New Orleans, and corresponding decline
of the same articles from New York. The
report says that our port is to-day full OF
shipping, the greater part OF which
unable to obtain cargoes, while
at New Orleans there are more loading for
European ports than are loading here, and
that steamships and sailing vessels are now
almost daily leaving this port in ballast for
New Orleans to obtain cargoes there. The
cause OF this, the report declares, Is to be
found in the high railroad rates kept up by
the pooling system.
The committee say that the present rail-
road policy, If persisted In, Will result In a
permrnent decline of the commercial su-
premacY of this port, and recommends the
enactment OF a law prohibiting the pooling
and charging Of a greater rate for q short
haul than for a long haul.
To that the committee say that an organ
ized movement should be instituted among
the business men Of this State, without dis
tinction of party, to secure nominations for
the next Legislature of representatives of
the people, both In the Assembly and SEN
ate, and thwArt the denomination OF those
Senators who at present represent only the
monopolizing interests of their corporation.
Copies of this report were ordered to be
sent to the members of the Legislature, and
the Chairman was authorized TO appoint a
committee to take into consideration the
suggestion contained In the last clause Of
the report, and draft plan of action in ac-
cOrdaDce with it.

RUSSIAN NOTES.
The Measure of Political Reform -
The Losses by the Anti-Jewlsh
RIOts-Further OuIbreaks-An Inn
pOrtant Arrest.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 1.-THE Car will
hold grand review to-day Of all the troops
here.
The losses by the riots at Elizabethgrad,
In which the Jews suffered terribly, are
officially stated at 1000, 900 roubles, and pri-
vate estimates put them much larger.
R6riddok publishes letter from Odessa
which says that in consequence of disorders
trade there and in the district Is completely
paralyzed. Serious disturbances have oc-
CURED at Bakee, in the Caucasus, between
the Russians and Mussulmans, but the mill
tarY restored order. One Mussulman was
killed and three were wounded. The riot
ing lasted three days.
The police have arrested a man who is
believed to be prominent Nihilist. He is
charged with completely in the murder of
the Gar, and with planning the Little Gar
den street mine. He was present at the re-
cent execution in the space in front of the
scatfold IT served for the officials and repre-
sentatives of the press. His sister has also

An official dispatch announces that order
has been restored at Keiff, but that there
has been further serious rioting at Vasili-
kow, where the people attacked the Jews
at the railway station, when the latter were
about to leave town. Troops had to go to
the rescue of the Hebrews.
Similar, but less serious excesses have
occurred at Aranajeff and Krotog. The
Gar has issued manifesto reminding the
people OF the glorious government of his
father. and the great reforms he accom-
plished. After allnding to the abominable
murder OF Alexander H., the manifesto
says:
SIN the midst of our profound grief the
voice of God commands us to courageouslY
assume the government of the country. Con-
ldipg In Divine Providence and in the
power of the Autocrat for the welfare of the
people, we have been called uponi to con-
solidate and defend against all attacks. We,
in devoting ourselves to our high task,
appeal to all faithful subjects to serve us
and the State, and faithfully and sincerely,
in order to extirpate the horribly rebellious
spirit which covers Russia with shame, to
strengthen the faith and morals, and place
the education of youth upon sound foun-
dation, to eradicate all that Is contrary to
the sense of right and integrity. and to
everywhere establish order and JUSTICE"

General at Keiff reports to the Foreign

these facts, warning them to observe eau

LONDON, May lit is expected that tn e
Parliamentary oath's bill will not come on
In the House of Commons till after the
Whitsuntide recess. Sir Stafford Northcote's
resolution, adopted yesterday, prevents Mr..
Bradlaugh from making any further efforts
within the House.
In the House Of Commons to-day, the
Speaker read letter from Mr.. Bradlaugh,
protesting against his forcible ejectment
from the House. The Speaker said the let
ter would appear In the notes tomorrow,
and that it would be competent for any
member to raise debate on it as a question
of privilege.
Mr.. Bradlaugh is reported as saying that
he claims exactly the same legal right to en-
ter the House of Commons as he did before
the passage Of the resolution excluding
him, against which he has made a formal
written protest.
The plaintiff In the action for penalties
against Mr.. Bradlaugh has given notice of
his intention to apply for leave to sign
judgment and to issue an execution, with
the object of bankrupting Mr.. Bradlaugh.
The latter will resist the pending decision
by the House of Lords.
The second reading of the bill to permit
clergymen to sit in the House of Commons
was defeated to-day by vote of ITO to 101.
1t is believed that when Archbishop Croke
replies to Mr.. Parnell's letter, a formal
meeting of the Home Rule members of Par
lament will be convoked and the existing
breach healed.

THE TUNIS TROUBLE.
The Invaders Close to the Capital

terrOgateds

LONDON, May 11.-A Times dispatch from
Rome says: "There is strong indignation
here against the French proceedings in
Tunis. Premier Carroll in the Chamber of
Deputies yesterday, on being asked by
Signor Guieceol regarding the rumors of
the Italian Consul's intrigues in TunIs and
the report OF his recall, interrupted him in
the middle of the question, and said, Eve
never even thought of recalling Signor
Maccio. The accusations against him are
false
"Signor Avalleto, the nominal leader of the
Right, had given notice that he would call
the attention of the Minister of Marine to
the necessity Of having 1taly's forces, espe-
cially the navy, ready against aggression or
for upholding the dignity of the nation"
PARIS, May ia dispatch from Tunis
states that the French force has arrived at
Djekeida. six leagues from Tunis. 1t will
proceed in the direction of Basdo, although
there is no question Of its entering Tunis.
The dispatcn continues: "This movement
is expected to facilitate the negotiations with
the Bey for the conclusion of treaty of
guarantees, which, while respecting the
rights of European nations, will insure Sc
curity to the Algerian frontier and provide
against renewal OF nti-French intr1gueS."
A Yellow Book on Tunis and Algeria will
be distributed amongst the Deputies to-
morrow. 1t includes the circular of Nj.
Barthelmy, st. Hlaire defining the object
of the Tunis expedition as the definite paci-
ication and delimitation of the English
frontier of Algeria, and the conclusion of
treaty guaranteeing Algeria against frontier
raids, and French interests against disloyal
intrigues.
"Prudence," it says, 'obliges France to
watch the solicitations which may be press
ed upon the Bey, and which might become
the source of grave embarrassment to
Algeria. The causes OF the change in the
Bey's feeling towards France would be too
delicate matter to investigate. The pre-
sent crisis is due to the persistent war
waged during the past two years against all
French interests In Tunis."
The circular iustifies the French refusal
to recognize the Porte's sovereignty, and
says: "The expedition meets the approval
of Europe wherever prejudice does not
blind mems eyes. All civilized nations will
profit by the change which France will
effect. There is nothing to prevent US from
doing for Tunis, without conquest and
without fighting, what we do in Algeria and
what England does In India"
