The, order to hold themselves in readiness

the regiment will probably remain as at
present. There are three companies at Bu-
ford, two at Stevenson, one at Lincoln and
three at Smelling. Lieut.. Grimes, officer in
charge of the U. s. military telegraph lines
in the northwest, is glad Of this suspension,
as it is a detachment of this regiment that is
now at work on the new line from Rocky
Point to Maginnis, which line will be COM
pleted about the 4th of July. The Line be-
tween Keogh and Deadwood is being taken
down, and the material will be used for the

Boston, May 2.-Judge Brooks gave a de-
cision to-day which affects several bequests
in the will of Longfellow. The decision is
that erasures can be considered no part OF
will, and interlineations of no effect.
This deprives each of the children of the tes-
tator's brother,of a legacy Of $1,000, and
makes void the legacy Of 5000 to his brother
Stephen. The decision is based upon the
ground that a will cannot be altered except
by codicil. The will was admitted to pro
bate, and Ernest Longfellow was appointed
administrator with will annexed, il, place of
the late Richard Fl. Dana, who was named in
the will. i ="

LONDON, May 2.-In the lords this evening,
Earl Granville, secretary of state for foreign
affairs, announced the resignation of w. q.
Forster, chief secretary for Ireland and
India. .,., .i-.<
Gladstone, in the commons, made an an
nouncement similar to that of Earl Gran
vile in the house of lords. Gladstone stated
that large number of other suspect, would
be released, and the government, instead of
renewing the coercian act, would introduce a
measure remedying administrative justice in
Ireland. He said instructions were already
seat to- Ireland for the release of the three
imprisoned members of parliament, and that
the cases of suspects were being carefully
considered, with view to the release of all
except these who we're arrested on suspicion
of having been personally concerned in out
RACES. The measurewhich the government
will introduce for remedying administrative
Justice in Ireland, deals with protection OF
life and property.
Sexton, at the conclusion of Gladstone's
remarks, said the government had taken the
first step in policy that would crown It's ad-
ministration with glory, and would produce
ties of mutual interest between 1t and Ire
land.

main two days, and will arrive in London

POPULAR REJOICING.
DUBLIN, May 2.-There was great excite
ment on the news being received of the res
ignation of Forster. Crowds gathered on
the streets and cheered for Parnell and
groaned for Forster. Bands paraded the city
playing national airs. The news of the re-
lease Of the land leaguers was quickly trans
mitted throughout the country, and soon
fires were blazing on Wicklow hills. There
we're spontaneous rejoicings everywhere, the
people dancing with Joy and shouting "Fors-
ter is gone! God save Ireland!'
