The InfernatfOnaI aI Riots at Canton.
 LONDON, Sept. 21.-The Standard Canton dispatch says Tide Waiter Logan, who is i'm prisoned at the British consulate at Canton charged with being concerned in originating the recent riot, twill be tried on Tuesday next. If he is acquitted an outbreak of Chinamen is expected. The viceroy has visited all the foreign consuls at Canton and has expressed deep regret at the occurrence of the riots. His position is one of great difficulty, for if too friendly with foreigners he will be cer- tain to incur the wrath of the populace. The prices of produce have fallen materially ow- ing to the anxiety of the Chinese merchants to rid themselves of their stocks before fur finer troubles occur.

 AGRAM, Sept. 21.-The town of Farease- vac, in the province of Croatia, was to-day the scene of terrible outbreak. Yesterday the execution of distress warrants for the payment of taxes which had been suspended in the province for several weeks was re- stunned. This action 50 exasperated the peas ant portion of the inhabitants, who claim that they are unable to pay the taxes and that the wealthy classes should meet this de- mand, that indignation meetings were held during the night at which inAammatory and socialistic speeches were made. This morn ing about six hundred of the peasantry now thoroughly aroused surrounded the town hall and attempted to take possession of it by storm. The buildings had been garri- soned during the night by strong body of the gendarmes in anticipation of such 8 demonstration, and the mob was ordered to disperse. This command not being obeyed, the eendarmes were directed to fire upon them, which they did, killing ten and wounding one hundred The rioters then scattered and quiet was restored. To night the streets are being patrolled in order to prevent disturb ances and the assembling of any large body of men.

SOFIA, Sept, 21.-General Lessoivof, Russian officer, has been appointed minister of war in the new Bulgarian cabinet. It is said that the action of Prince Alexander and M. Zaukof in again conceding the war offac to Russian influence was due to the advice of the German and Austrian governments.

The Hill Report-A Scathing Review by
 She Supervisor.
 WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-Supervisor Archi tect Hill to day submitted to Secretary Fol ger reply to the report of the New investi- gating committee He reviews the entire re- port in the most scathing language. He shows that the committee depended chiefly for its evidence upon the word of man who he says confessed on oath that he had practiced the frauds of which he accused the supervis- ing architect. He calls attention to the fact that the 15 per cent. contracts were approv- ed by the Secretary of the Treasury as modi- fed by the commission of which he was the head. With reference to favoritism to Daw- son $ Co.and Bartlett, Robbins X Co.,, he says he advertised for bids and they got the work. Afterwards they obtained the remainder of the contracts simply because no other firm would approach them in prices fixed by the competitive advertisement. With reference to the committee recommendations for reor- ganization of the office, MT. Hill thinks that he is quite as able to suggest plans as they, and although he has given the matter long study he has been unable to suggest any new plan that WAS free from objection.
