note of the powers regarding the de ] spatch of Turkish troops to Egypt Int | Porte proposes the assembling for fresl l conference. It is stated the Spanlsi
 ambassador informed hIs colleagues tha
 Spain intends to station three gun boat
 at each end of the Suez Canal to escor [ the Spanish mails through. She alsa l sends four iron clads to Alexandria.
 ALEXANDRIA, July 21.-De Lessep:
 has informed Seymour that the passage
 of men of war through the Suez cana
 constitutes a breach of its peutrality
 The force Arabi Pasha is increasing. He
 IS regaining his influence, because Of the delay Of the British troops. His scouts have been seen seven miles from Alex
 andria. Arabi Pasha IS trying to estab. ] fish relations with Arabs in Tripoh and
 and southern Tunis. The conference yesterday chiefly considered temporary
 measures for the security of the Sue7
 canal. Tte Idea which found most favor was that the protection of the
 canal be trusted to England and France in conjunction with third power. No decision was reached owing to wanted instructions from the respe ctive Govern
 ments of the confreres.
 ALEXANDRIA, July 22.-Arabi Pasha is
 dIyertlng the Mohemedish canal which
 supplies Alexandria with water, but 1t IS
 beneved that the greater part Of the
 clsterns have been recently filed. There
 Is no chance of a resumption of business
 here for at least three months. The
 native official report of the lombard
 ment of Alexandria says that eight iron
 faNsH dc b
 captured and that the latter would be
 brought to Cairo. APOrt Said dispatch says Arabl Pashs, after the lombard ment of Alexandria, spread the report that the English troops had been de- feated. The conduct of the natives Is consequently very Insolent. The posi- tion Is critical. A Rome dispatch says that permanent squadron composed of four ironclads has been ordered to pro- ceed to Alexandra. It is expected the Porte will propose that either the Turk lsh commission shall accompany the English and French troops or that Euro peans hold the Suez canal while the ruEks operate elsewhere. A refugee from Cairo reports that numerous mas sacres of Europeans took place Monday on the outskirts of that city.
 The situation Tn regard to the water supply is becoming alarming. Unless more troops arrive soon to enable Gen. eral Allison to drive Arabi Pasha from pumping stations, the consequences will be terrible. The notables at a meeting at Cairo adopted resolution declaring the khedive traitor and deposed him, and also issu proclamation declaring war with England.
 Five hundred soldiers and many bedOuins in SeagaZig have been joined by soldiers and beduuins from Cairo. No doubt general massacre has begun. News Of the massacre Of Europeans m va- rious parts of Egypt excIted great indIg- nation here. Delay Of action Is bitterly upon. Arabi Pasha's pro- clamation has already effected marked change ID the attitude of the populAce. Arabi's camp on a strip of land tianked by two dykes Is very strong. Thirty-six were massacred there by order of Arabi.
 ALEXANDRIA, July 2l.-Omar Pasha Lufty, governor of Alexandria, returned from Cairo by way of Port Said. He has made the following report to the khedlve: On way tO Cairo l saw Europeans being massacred and their l houses pillaged at Damashur, Sattah l and Mihalla, where the Alexandria rab- | ble had arrve1. Arabi Pasha had | called a meeting at Cairo of all Pasha | Uimas and uotables, and asked them | it was right to obey the | khedive, seeing he had sold Egypt to | the English. The meeting appointed a committee to go to Alexandria to verify | the accusation against the Khedive There IS sufficient fresh water in Alex lndria to last ten days. The Roman wells cannot be cleaned and filled in less than fortnight. The fleet can con- lense sufficien. water for crews and troops, but not for the population. Suez Canal and Pot Said are considered insecure. Two British corvettes have gone to Port Said. Arabi Pasha is call ng in all the Bedolins in the neighbor- hood of Ramleh.
 ALEXANDRIA,, July 22.-The telegraph s cut down between here and Snez. General Allison re ,onnoltered Arabi's position and found it very strong.
 VIENNA, July 22.-A deluge rain oc- curfed in Bohemia and the destruction to property and crops is ipeai---'--'-- The bodice of forty seven persons urU"ned have been recovered. A large part Of the harvests in Bohemia are des- trOyed.
