ern wing of the Payrit Theatre crushed
through the Entresol, into a coffee bouse be-

the rubbish. Among the several dead already
taken from the ruins is Enrique Sagastizailco,
proprietor of the theatre. Several families

Eagle Nest, on the Rio Grande, says about
that some of the Indians in the Santa Rosa
mountains were on the move, and detailed a
force to watch them. Those who crossed the
river at Eagle Nest are supposed to be the
ones, as a Mexican officer and fifty men fol-
lowed them to the river, but did not attempt
to attack them, as they thought they we're

Tisza Expresses His Opinion About 1t at a
Clab Meeting,

PEsTH, April 14-At club meeting here
last evening, Tisza, President of the Hunga-
rian Council, made speech in which he an
nounced that it was true there existed be-
tween Austria, Germany and Italy harmony
of views and agreement to attain a common
object, which could not be described as an al
lance, although the permanence OF the ac-
cord between them could not be doubted.
In the Chamber of Deputies, Tisza, alluding
to the gratuitous interpretations offered for
Mancinis speech in the Italian Senate, raid
he supposed the people were in need of sensa-
tions, hence the reports of foreign alliances.
Mancini had mentioned no agreement or alli-
ance to act against France or any intent to
guarantee the respective territory of the three
countries There would have been no sense
in Austria joining such combination, which
would imply hostility toward France, with
whom it was the desire OF the empire to re-
main OH a friendly footing. He said the
statement made in 1882 by Count Kalnoky,
Austrian Minister of Foreign Affairs, that
Italy had Joined in the conservative foreign
policy of Austria and Germany to preserve
the peace OF Europe still holds good.
The Vienna FremdenbaUt, organ of the
foreign office, referring to the speech of the
Italian Minister of Foreign Affairs on the
triple alliance, mentions the agreement Of
the three powers as league of peace. Italy,
the Fremdenblatt says, is promised the ener-
getic assistance of Germany and Austria to
defend her national honor and protect her
maritime interests.

Government Expense.

BosToN, April 15.-The steamer HISTORIAN
arrived here last night with $50 passengers,
most of them impoverished Irish people,
sent over at the expense of the English gov
ernment. The greater part are families,
some of which number eight or ten persons,
while they average about five. The majority
are from Galway others from Mayo, Kerry
and Donegal. The most are from Galway,
evicted, and during the past winter lived
as best they could, finding shelter in tents,
with Indian-meal porrdge as their
principal article of food. An agent of
the government furnished money to those
who desired to go to places beyond Boston,
the amounts depending on the size of the
family, some receiving a few fhillings, others
f2. f3 and f5 or f6, A great many of the
men are farmers, but seem undecided what
they shall do here. Some are going to New
York, others to Pttsburg, Portland, Chicago
and Canada, while some remain in Boston
and vicinity. Several paid their own pas
sage, but brought little with them in the
way of money or household goods. They
