THE CRISIS IN EGYPT.
Making Ready TO BOmbard the
FOrts-Ehe French View OF the
Animation.

ALEXANDRIA, July 6.-Ragheb Pa
sha, President of the Council, received
a telegram from the Sultan announcing
that the British fleet would lombard
the forts unless the construction of the
earthworks was stopped. The Sultan
holds the Khedive and Ministry re
sponsible for the consequence. Raghet
Pasha replied that the Ministry had
already telegraphed to Constantinoplt
that demonstrations had already been
made, in consequence of which the
Sultan's permission to resume the work
was asked. Pending the Sultan's re-
ply no definite resolution would be
adopted.
Despite all denials to the contrary,
the work on the tortifCations continues.
Admiral Seymour delays formally de-
manding the cessation Of the work un.
til all the British residents are on board
vessels in the harbor. They are now
hastily embarking. 1t is reported that
Arab Pasha is supplying arms to the
natives.
LONDON, July "a dispatch to the
Times from Alexandria this afternoon
states that Admiral Seymour has sent
an ultimatum to the authorities de-
manding the instant stoppage of the
construction OF the earthworks under
threat of opening fire. The work has
ceased for the moment.
A dispatch to the Times from Paris
states that the Cabinet have considered
the instructions to be given to Admiral
Conrad in view of the possibility of the
English fleet bombarding the defense 8
at Alexandria. 1t was understood they
have decided that he shall remain pass
i've and only participate if provoked by
some act or incident. France, in thus
deciding, wished tc remain faithful to
her previous resolutions not to act apart
from the European concert and to re-
serve freedom of action pending the de-
cisions of the conference. Admiral
Conrad, however, is instructed to re.
main at his post and not allow the
Egyptians to regard the action of Eng.
land rs opposed to the views of France
and Europe.
The constitution of the first army
corps is now settled. Fifteen thousand
men Of the corps will go from England
to Egypt and the rest from India.
In the House Of Commons this after
noon Mr.. Gladstone said that, though
he quite recognized the merits of M.
De Lesseps, he could not be guided by
him on the policy to be pursued in E.
gypt. He stated that it was not his in
tentiOn to propose vote of credit for
warlike operations, because such meas
ures at present would not be justified.
Tho Daily Telegraph's correspondent
at Alexandria says:
1.-THE answer of Arab Pasha does
not satisfy Admiral Seymour, who has
sent out a call On the English war ships.
The French are encouraging Arab Pa
sha to resist.

As that part of Franklin street from
Tenth to Delaware Avenue, or rather
the part skirting the reservoir, embra-
ces the most beautiful promenadei in the
city especially during moonlight nights,
would like to inquire why it has been
given up entirely to the most depraved
and immodest of both sexes, during the
evening hours. Last Sunday evening
the view from Franklin street, looking
east, was very fine. The moons beams
dancing upon the water in the reser-
voir and the city stretched beneath you,
presented q sight fair to look upon; but
owing to the speech and actions of some
"hoydens" who need some sound ad-
vice, the idea was forced upon me that
the street belonged to that class, rather
than to the respectable part of the com
munity. There Is no reason why this
street should not be fit for tie passage
of ladies and gentlemen. DEL.

Shocking Affair at the Katahdin
t.s.,af- Iron Works.
AN EMPLOYEE BRUTALLY BEATS A
FELLOW wORKMAN.l
The Victim Alive, but His Death a
#tt Question Of Hours.

BANGOR, March pa brutal affair, which
will probably prove to be a murder occurred
on Tuesday at the Katahdin Iron Works. Two
men at work around the smelling furnaces got
into dispute and considerable harsh language
was used. Suddenly one of them seized hea-
w long handled iron shovel and struck his
companion on the head The blow was given
with much force and the heavy shovel cut open
his head and fractured the skull. In his anger
the brute was not sat isfied with what he had
done but still further attacked his fellow mate,
and kicked and beat him severely. Other
workmen came to his assistance and found tie
injured man alive but in terrible condition,
and no hopes are entertained that he will live.
The doctor from Brownville has made an ex-
animation and says the victim cannot survive.
Additional medical aid has been summoned
from Dover Much excitement has been cre-
ated at the Katahdin Iron Works by The fright
full deed. The victim was named Robinson,
and has wife and two children. AT last ac-
counts the perpetrator of the crime had moi
been arrested, but he is still at the iron works
and now repents sadly his rash deed He says
he wants to pay all the doctors bills, and is
ready to support the family of the injured
man. The fellow will be arrested immediate.
ly upon the death of Robinson, if not before.

LABOR TROUBLES.
No Change IN the Situation at
Lawrence.
TIE STRIKERS ADVISED NOT TO
YIELD.

LAWRENCE, March 22.-The condition of af-
fairs is by no means encouraging although the
presence in the city OF agents from other mills
leads some strikers to believe the Pacific Mills
will relent rather than lose the experienced
help who most likely will seek employment
elsewhere. To-day the weavers' committee
have been soliciting aid in several wards and
report good success. Tomorrow the weavers
hold secret meeting to discuss the situation.
The Greenback Club tonight adopted reso-
lutions of sympathy with the strikers; also APP
proving the action taken in the matter by
Mayor BreeD.
The striking spinners held a meeting to-
night and voted unanimously to stay away
from the mill until the reduction is restored.
1t was also voted to form labor union, TO
comprise operatives in all the mills in the city,
each to contribute % cents monthly, which
sum it is believed will be sufficient to meet the
wants of needy operatives. Over 1000 have
already signifed their willingness to contribute
this amount. The meeting was addressed by
Dennis Gilmartin, representative to the Gen
eral Court, who commended this course and
advised the strikers to stand firm.
The Eight-Hour Law Agitation.
BROOKLYN, March 22.-The laborers of the
navy yard, who formed union some time age
in connection with the laborers of the Other
navy yards, held a meeting last night at which
it was stated that their demand for their pay
for oyerwork since the passage of the eight
hour law of 1868 had been laid before Pres
dent Arthur, who had referred it to Attorney
General Brewster, from whom a favorable
opinion was soon expected. Gen. Butler il
counsel foI all the unions, which comprise
some 5000 people, and if the decision is agains
them a case will be brought by him in April il
