McCook weekly tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 188?-1886, 1883-11-29
FOREIGN.


FOREIGN.
EGYPT.
The British foreign Office on the 10th
allowed to be issued the first authoritative
information regarding the withdrawal of
British troops from Cairo. The information
comes in the form of official dispatches
which have passed between English COM
manders in Egypt and the war Office, and
they show that the evacuation Of the city
was in consequence Of persistent demands
by the Egyptian government.
FRANCE.
1t is noticed that many vessels have
recently been bought or chartered in Lon
don and Liverpool by certain merchants
and spectators who have intimate CONNER
cial relations with French houses. The in
terpI citation put upon this fact in CONNER
clal circles is that the French government is
quietly arranging through these agencies
for an extensive transport service in view of
war with China.
hO kCpOio VIC i1Cllch SOSCl u
ment presented an ultimatum to China is
semi officially denied. The committee of
the chamber Of deputies to report upon the
bill for Tonquin credits, examined Prime
Minister Ferry and the minister of marine,
who explained the military situation in Ton
quin and affirmed that offensive operations
by the French forces were imminent If not
already begnn.
ITALY.
1t is stated that fresh confidential in
structions have been cent to the Catholic
bishops of Ireland enjoining them to en-
deavor to create sentiment influencing the
Catholics to act with the government. The
recent orders forbidding, the holding of
Orange and other meetings, is considered
due to the good offices Of Errington, the
English agent.
PRUSSIA.
The Prussian diet was opened on the
Goth by Van Putkamer, minister of the in
terror. A speech from the throne set forth
that the financial situation had improved,
and the working of railways by the state had

surplus. The new budget does not make
any claim upon the credit of the state, but
certain disproportion continues in regard to
the resources of the treasury as compared
with the demands upon it arising from the
pressure of communal charges and made
quacy OF salaries of public schools.
ENGLAND.
The statement of New York paper
of October Goth, that O'Donnell, was evas.
i've in answering questions regarding his
American citizenship to Secretary Hoppin
of the American legation, O'DonnelI regard
ing Hoppin as British detective, is pro-
nounced untrue. Hoppin, on the contrary,
was agreeably impressed by O'Donnell,
who was open and frank and gave him all
the evidence he had as to his American
citizenship, which has been sent to Wash
ington. Probably his trial will be postponed
q week In consequence o, the non arriyal of
witnesses from the Cape of Good Hope.
TONQUIN.
Owing to cable interruption informa-
ton of the military operations in Tonquin
are not expected for week. The fleet will
make naval demonstration on the Chinese
coast during the attack upon Bacnith.
SPAIN.
The republican military society has
issued an address to the army and the peo-
pie, declaring that II the government does
not establish universal suffrage at the next
session, the Corres society will adopt rev.
dictionary attitude.
CHINA.
China has issued a circular declar-
ing that she has done her utmost to pre-
serve peace, but that the demands of the
French are SO eXhorbitant that she can only
maintain her present attitude, and abide
the results.
EGYPT.
The fact that no information of any
character comes from Hicks Pasha is caus-
ing anxiety in government circles. The
idea prevails of completely abandoning Sou
dan if he is defeated. Mainland Fasha, the
officer who commanded the Egyptians in the
recent disastrous combat with rebels in
Toka, is to be tried by court martial.
SPAIN.
Ten thousand people gathered at
Madrid to witness the landing of the prince
and greeted him with loud cheers, while the
men-of-war in the harbor and the batteries
on shore fired salutes. General Blance,
Count Won Solms, the German ambassador,
Of Madrid, allies de-camp Of the emperor
of Germany and King Alfonso, the civil gov
ernor of the province of Valencia, and other
persons of distinction, received the crown
