The Cause of SkObeIeff's Death.

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Lieutenant F. V. Greene, who knew General Skobelef wei! and was witness of his military achieve ments places no confidence in the report published by the St. Petersburg Gaul0is that Skobeleff committed suicide to escape the discovery of his connection with the Nihil- ists. He characterizes the report as absurd, also that which asserts that he was pois- oned. He believes the official explanation that he died from the effects of blow from 8 spent bullet to be the true one. The shock felled him from his horse and obliged him to stay in cot in the trenches for two weeks There is quite general belief here that there is mystery connected with the sudden death of this young officer that has not yet been explained.

 Perhaps a General European War.
 CoNsTANTINoPLE, July 1.-The reply of the Sultan to Lord Dufferin is considered significant, and the belief is entertained that England may after all have committed po litical blunder in allowing Admiral Seymour to begin the war. The Sultan told Lord Dufferin that when he saw that Admiral Sey mour had begun to lombard Alexandria be- cause of the refusal of the government of Alexandria to surrender to foreign admiral the city forts ill q time of peace, he (the Sul- tan) immediately telegraphed the Turkish minister at England to inform him at once to request Earl Granville to have England ab stain from acts of hostility which would con stitute grave infraotion of the Porte's rights and interests in Egypt. From these utterances the Sultan is supposed to be ad vised in the interests of some strong anti English European power.

The duel between the British fleet and the forts will afford the first real opportunity of studying the practical working in actual war of many accepted theories of marine architecture ordnance, torpedoes, defense and fortifca- tlons. The defensive strength of the heavy armor of the British ships and the destruc- tive powers of the great eighty-ton guns will be watched with special interest If the en- gagement is fought out on it's merits it will be of the greatest importance in it's bearing on the science of war.
 Boom fn the American Trade.
 NEW YORK, July 1.-The effect of the war on American trade Is expected to be ben eficial rather than otherwise. The tea market here is overstocked, and the closing of the Suez canal would give an opportunity to work off the surplus stock. American cot ton will be relieved from Egyptian competi- tion. The English export trade will suffe- from closing the canal. giving the advantage to our exporters sending by the Pacific railr ways and Pacific mail steamers. The demand for American breadstuffs will also increase if the war is of long duration.
