Washington, Jan. 1S.-The senate
committee on foreign relations did not
consider the Chinese treaties at its
meeting to-day, but was engaged on
other business. The committee did
not take up Senator Burnside's inter-
national canal resolutions. Senator
Eaton, chairman of the committee,
says the committee will undoubtedly
report resolution embodying the sub
stance of the one Introduced by Gen.
Burnside, but stronger and more en-
phatic in its hostility to the construc-
tion of the international canal by for
eign capital, and for the enforcement
Of the Monroe doctrine. His own idea
is to report a resolution declaring that
this government assumes power over
the isthmus as necessary for the pro-
lection of the United States, and will
not allow foreign government or for
eign citizen to construct canal across
the isthmus.

The cattle that are now roaming near
the line Of the railroad in western Ne
braska are in a very sorry condition.
The snow has been lying on the ground
for long time and has been melted and
frozen several times, so that it is hard
for the animals to get at the grass. In
consequence they drift ON to the line of
the road, where many of them are
killed. The bitches on both sides of
the track from Sidney to Julesburg are
thickly strewn with the carcasses of the
unfortunate beasts. Sometimes three
or four are found in heap.
The cattle men of Sidney say that the
recent storms have driven many Wyo-
ming cattle into Nebraska, some going
as far as Julesburg. Wyoming brands
of Evans, Creighton, Sturgis & Lane,
and others are numerous. One day
during the winter large band of JIII
cattle went through the streets Of
Sidney and continued on their way
eastward. The Nebraska cattle men
have mostly driven their stock north

Unwarranted Opposition. Q

San Francisco, Jan. 1S.-The Cali
says the hostility to the treaty among
the members of the Pacific delegation
is uncalled for. The present is no
time for the friends of American labor
to split hairs on minor points. The
question Of naturalization is in the
hands of congress, and great and sub
stantial good should not be sacrificed to
shadowy apprehension. Let bill SIM
liar to to the fifteen-passenger bill be
introduced at once that it may be
passed as soon as the treaty is
ratified, and any member of the Pacific
coast delegation who opposes the treaty
or bill will commit serious political
mistake"

Frank Boise, the well known freighter,
met with legal mishap while in Sid
ney on Thursday of last week. He
visited that town with his teams for
the purpose of inquiring for freight.
Soon after, the Williams Bros, freight
ers of Sidney, claimed one of the mules
belonging to Mr.. Boise, and they at
once repleyied the animal. Mr.. B.
came to Cheyenne on Saturday last to
obtain witnesses and counsel, and re-
turned to Sidney with Messrs. ]. NJ.
Treyett and J. MeGath, witnesses, and
Mr.. j. G. Baird, attorney. The trial
came off before Judge Neubauer, coun-
ty judge, on Monday, the Masonic
hall, of Sidney, being used for the court
room, in order to accommodate the
throng of spectators.
Fourteen witnesses for the prosecu-
tion identified the mule as the property
of the Williams Bros, all of them
swearing most positively. There were
four witnesses for the defense, and OF
course they identified the mule as being
the property of Mr.. Boise. The case
went to the jury, each side being con-
fident of victory. The jury were out
for over an hour and finally returned a
verdict, finding the property of the
mule to be in the defendant, Mr..
Boise, and giving him $1,000 damages
and costs of the suit. Mr.. Boise left
Sidney yesterday with his team for

Oil Refinery Explosion and Fire an

Proposed Change of site OF the

An Entire Family Murdered In
Ohio.


philadelphia, Jan. 18.-About hall
mast two O'Clock this morning one OF
the tanks at the Atlantic oil refinery,
Point Breeze, exploded with terrific
force, and the burning oil was scattered
in every direction. The concussion
broke windows at mile distance and
the flames spread rapidly, not only to
adjoining tanks, but to the wharf and
shipping tanks. Four tanks soon took
fire and number of vessels which are
aground in the Schuylkill were quickly
ablaze.
A dispatch from the immediate vi
cinity at 9:15, says the entire place
is on fire.
The report that the shipping is on
fire seems premature. 1t is now stated
that all the vessels were intact at
O'Clock. There are two loaded vessels
in the stream, however, opposite the
works, which are burning, namely: The
Competition, with filled cases, and the
Maryland. with filled barrels. One of
the city ice boats has gone to their as
sistance. The wharves are all in flames
and the employees have been compelled
to leave their Offices.
The fire originated in an agitator.
The explosion was heard and felt at the
extreme northern points in this city
and as far'down the river as Chester.
The last great fire at these works oc-
CURED in June, '78.
All the shedding along the wharves
are now on fire and the destruction of
the whole works greatly depends on
the force and direction of the wind.
The fire Is now under control and has
been confined to the wharves and
warehouses. Eleven thousand barrels
Of the Standard Oil Co.'s oil burned.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 18.-General
Skobeloff telegraphs on the 18th inst.
that on the 9th at O'Clock in the even
ing 10000 Tekke Turcomans made a
sudden sortie from Cock Tipe and as
saulted the Russian trenches, which
were manned by nineteen companies of
infantry, and the Cossacks acting as in
fantry with three seige guns and twen-
ty lighter guns. In spite of the heroic
defense by the troops, the Turcomans
carried the Russian outworks and part
of the second parallel, capturing four
mounted guns and three seige guns.
The Russians then opened an artillery
fire, and the reserve simultaneously at
tackled the enemy, who were dislodged
from all points they had captured. All
the artillery was retaken with the ex-
ception of one mounted gun, which had
been carried off during the early part
of the engagement. The Russian loss
was heavy, one company of the Apsher-
on regiment alone had twenty-three
men killed, including major and a
captain, and ten wounded and one of
iicer taken prisoner. The Turcoman
losses were much greater, their dead
filled the Russian trenches. Stimuli
taneously with this attack consider
able body of Turcoman cavaly made a
sortie on the Russian camp, which was
cuaroocf1llu rop,,lcaJ ftor tl,o IT,.
comans had been repulsed, orders were
given for the laying Of the third paral-
lei, and as soon as the Turcomans saw
work commenced they renewed the at
tack with their entire strength upon
the whole Russian front, but were CON-
PEELED to retire in the fortress by the ar
tillery fire at close range from the Rus
SLAMS second parallel. The laying of
the third parallel was completed on the
10th inst, and on the same day the for
tress was strongly fortified, but the
works were bombarded. At O'Clock
in the afternoon the Russian columns
made an assault, and after a severe
struggle captured the out works. Bonn
bardment by the seige artillery was
still progressing on the 18th inst. The
total of the Russian loss in the action of
the 9th and 10th, was nine officers and
eighty-two men killed, eight officers and
one hundred and two men and eight
members of the medical staff were
wounded. The behavior Of the troops
was admirable.
