CONDITIONS OF AGREEMENT.
LONDON, July 16.-A Paris CORES
pendent of the Times says: The idea of
renewal of the close cooperation of
France with England has now forced
| itself upon the French government.
The cabinet council has adopted a reso-
luton to this effect, conditional on three
things, viz: Turkeys reply to the iden-
tleal note OF the powers asking the
Porte 10 send troops to Egypt; the de-
cision of the conference, and the sane
tiOn of parliament. Subject to these
conditions, the two governments are now
entirely agreed in regard to the terms
upon which their forces will undertake
to restore order in Egypt
DIsCONTEET AMONG THE REBs
ALEXANDRIA, July 1S.-Last night
was quiet. The lines are now very
strongly guarded. The fires are nearly
all extinguIshed. Police arrangements
are thoroughly effective. A correspond
ent has opened communication with
the camp of Arab Pasha, which his in
formant says consists of little over six
thousand men who are intensely dis
contented and are surrounded by starv-
| ing women ana children. Recruits of
the worst class are still enticed by Arab
with the promise of unlimited plumber
and the force is held together by the as
sertion that the English will kill all re
turning 10 the city.
| AGooD WORD FOR AMERICANS.
LONDON, July 1S-A leading editorial
article in the Post this morning says:
The behavior of the American admiral
and his men at Alexandra is beyond all
praise. Amid diplomatic protests of
European concerts and conferences and
naval demonstT atoms of imbecility, il is
| refreshing to find a commander who is
able and willing, on his own account,
TO say what he thinks and do what he
says. Sixty marines, physically speak
| ing, could not do much, but there Is
way of giving support which quadruples
| its value. The conduct of the Ameri
cans during the night alarm that Arab
Pasha was coming contrasts tavOrably
with that of the French and Italians.
| BAD LUCK FOR IRELAND.
DUBLIN, July 1S.-Itis feared that an
other crisis is approaching. The
weather threatens utter destruction to
what promised to be one of the finest
harvests ever reapei in Ireland. Heavy
and almost incessant rains continue.
The fields of potatoes have suffered Sc
verely. IT the weather improves there
will still be hope of recovery.

challenge.

MARsEILLEs, July 1S.-Ali French
marines retired from service who have
not served fifty-one months are ordered

A BOLD ABDUCTION.
MONTREAL, July 18-Last night the
plan for the abduction of two year old
child of Melvin Smith, wealthy gen.
tleman of this city, was boldly carried

low demanded 10000 pounds as ran
som and threatened the murder of the
child if the demand was refused.

LONDON, July 19.-The reserve squad
ron has been ordered to return to their

ARTICLES ON THE EGYPTIAN QUESTION.
| BERLIN, July 19.-The Cologne Ga
1 zette and the Berlin North German
Gazette print articles on the Egyptian
question which arc regarded as being
directly inspired by and representing
not only the policy of Germany, but of
all the other powers except England and
France. The articles state that the
Egyptian question will only be ripe fOf
Germany after the western powers have
come to u mutual understanding to ap-
ply for the assent of Europe. In view
of the general need of peace, England
may rely upon support on all sides in
her endeavor to bring about settlement
adheres to the role of defender of her
| just interests.

of the Telegraph at Alexandria says:
al drove yesterday nine miles along the
line of Arab Pasha's retreat and passed
several villages the people in which are
starving. The, soldiers robbed them of
everything. The entire route was lined
with carriages and dead horses. 1t is
reported that the Bedouins harrassed
the soldiers during the retreat, killing
300.
| THE KHEDIVE'S CONDUCT.
| ALEXANDRIA, July 19.-The conduct
| of the khedivc causes much surprise.
He has, for the last few days, allowed
several persons to be at the palace who
are well known to have been intimately
connected with Arab Pasha. The khe-
| dive apparently trusts them, but it may
be he is endeavoring TO get them thor
oughly in his power.

Pasha defends his action, and says he
was fully justified by the decision of the
| council of ministers in replying to the
