A CRISIS IN EGYPT.

CAIRO, May 27.-This afternoon the
Khedive summoned the dignataries of the
Ulemas, deputies and other Arabic nota-
bles, also the principal officers of the army,
and addressed them in energetic terms on
the subject of the existing political situa-
ton. He explained the object of the
English French naval expedition and an
nounced that he had assumed supreme
command of the army and was resolved to
maintain strict discipline. The officers
present replied in insolent language and
declared that they never would accept the
ultimatum offered by England and France
nor recognize the right of interference of
any power except Turkey. They then alb
ruptly left the Khedive's presence. The
Khedive has since receiveda telegram from
the military commanders at Alexandria, in
which they declare that they will not rec
ognize anybody but Arab Bey, and de-
mand his reinstatement within twelve
hours. After the expiration of that term
they will not they say, be responsible for
the maintenance of order.
After audience with the Khedive the
Ulemas and military officers held
a meeting at the house of Sultan Pasha,
where the officers used even more violent
language than at the palace. The regular
vote for deposition of the Khedive was pro-
posed, but notable Ulemas unanimously
opposed such proceeding. 1t was finally
decided to ask the Khedive to retain Arab
Bey as Mininter of War Sultan Pasha
proceeded to the palace with the message.
absolutely refused to grant the
request, and added that the Porte had tel
egraphed him congratulatlng him on his
conduct and on his acceptance of the res
ignation of the minister.

STAR ROUTE CASES.

WAsHIAaToN, May 27.-The star route
trials began this morning. Before enter
ing pleas defendants counsel proceeded to
offer a number of motions, NEST of them
motions to quash, based on alleged errors
in Indictment. Ingersoll took up the mo-
tions in succession. making long and ex-
haustive argument on each of them.
McSweeney fer defense spoke lengthily;
he was answered by Bliss, after which
Judge Willie said the points presented
nothing different from former cases, held
conspiracy its objects, and part of overt
acts were set out specifically as needed.
Carpenter excepted ruling This disposed
of motions in the Dorsey case. Argu-
ment of motions in the Turner case com
menced and adjourned.
AN ORDER.
Postmaster General natton has issued
an order directing a general observance of
Decoration Day by closing the postoffices,
except in large cities, between 10 a. m. and
5 p. m. In large cities postmasters may
exercise judgment in fixing hours.
REPUBLICAN METHODS.
Circulars from the national republican
congressional campaign committee were
received by employees at the capital to day,
in which each employe was informed that
he was expected to contribute two per
cent. of his annual salary toward cam
paign fund, to be used next fall.
Republican members of the House are
satisfied of the impracticability of continu-
ing the present struggle without first Sc
curing an amendment to the rule which
viii prevent diiatory motiors-new line of
action will therefore be agreed upon for
next week On Monday, Immediately af-
ter reading of journal, Representative
Reed will call up amendment to rules, re-
ported by him from committee on rules,
which, if adopted will virtually prevent
the putting OF dilatory motions, pend
ing consideration of question of privilege.
If, as they will undoubtedly do, the demo-
Gratis interpose motion to adjourn. Reed
will make the point of order that the
motion is dilatory one and cannot be
entertained, pending consideration of
proposition to amend rules and upon his
point of order will ask he be heard. RAN
dali will probably speak for the democrats,
and the speaker is expected to sustain the
point of order. The situation of the
whole difficulty, therefore hangs upon the
decision of the speaker. The feeling to-
night is that remarkable struggle, Mon
day, upon line proposed by republicans,
will be attended by the most exciting
scenes yet witnessed by the present con-
gress.

committee on Sabbath observance was
heard and accepted, and with a slight
modification was adopted It discounten-

TABLE TALK.

The favorite argument of the prohibi
tionists, is that prohibition laws will Sc
tend to reduce crime that the money saved
trials, will more than counterbalance the
income lost by the throwing away of
license. Maine has had Prohibition laws
on its books for many years. Mr.. G. W.
Toddard has prepared comparative table
of the statistics of crime in that state in
1851 and 1880, During these forty-one
years prohibition laws have been on the
statute books of Maine The figures given
are as follows

RAILROADS.
PASSENGER BUSINESS.

NEW YORK, May Eft is stated by
several railroad men that the Commissioners
of General Passenger. Agents of trunk
lines in session here recommend abolition
of the system of through trains between
leading points east and west, requiring pos
sengers In A. w transfers at intermediate
points to day cars. 1t is claimed this is
because the Erie Road which has no
through line to Chicago asks that roads
having such lines and running their trains
shall charge higher rates than other roads
A prominent railroad man to day said the
prospector of Hills scheme is John New
ell, Genl. Manager of Lake Shore. Com
missioner Fink to-day said there was
nothing new re garding trunk lines
The whole affair is mysterious.

New York Central and Lake Shore roads
are willing to come to terms with the Gov
ernment so that fast mail leaving New

hour. There will be another conference
