The Annexation Scheme.

Sydney, 5.-The resolution adopted by
the conference of delegates of the Aus
tralian Legislature, called to consider the
question CT annexation Of New Reb-
| rides, New Guinea and other South Sea
Islands to Australia, declares it " &C.
| imously the voice Of the conference that
any further Annexstions in Pacific reg
ions south of the equator by. foreign
powers would be- highly injurious to the
interests, the safety and well-being
Of Australia and the British
Empire. The conference leaves
to England the initiative action,
confidently believing she will promptly
adopt the wishes OF the conference and
take the most effectual measures TO secure
The safety and contentment Of Australia
By Incorporating so much of New Guinea
and adjacent islands as is not claimed by
Holland. The conference urges Eng
land to make definite arrangements
With France, and thereby prevent the
Islands being made subject to foreign
dominion, and to seize the first oppGr-
tunity of negotiating with France for the
purpose Of obtaining the control of the
New Hebrides in the interest Of Austria
liza. The colonies offer to bear fair.
share Of the cost Of these undertakings
The conference protests in the strongest
manner against France sending crimi-
nails to the islands of the Pacific, and
urges England to make serious repressn&
tations, and do its utmost to prevent the
practice of disss rous interests in aus
trslia. The conference is now discussing
the constitution aud functions of the
federal council to 6eal with interests COM
mon to the whole Of Australia. A COM
plete sgreement is expected.

A Locomotive with Four Cy
llnderS.

The Boston and Albany railroad
is building at its Boston shops a
freight engine with four cylinders,
the first ever made in this country.
There will be two small and two
large cylinders, the former exhaust
ing into the latter, so as to utilize
the steam after it has once been
used in both pairs at the same
time, thus giving an immense
power, but the main idea is to util-
ize the exhaust steam. The engine
will have one of the big boilers and
fire boxes, so as to carry 160 pounds
of steam, the same as the irst>class
passenger locomotives, but the
drivers will only be four and a half
feet in diameter. The machinery
is the same as that of an ordinary
engine, and, if the four cylinders
fail to work well, they can he taken
out and one pair put in.-Boston

heir to.

the importation of dead meat only
at the next session of Parliament,
and would use his best endeavors to
see that it became law. His grace

sion.

Soto and Gayoso streets. Patrick had
behaved badly, was in the habit Of get
ting portion Of his pocket change by
stealthily helping himself 70 It from the
cash drawer Of the grocery. He was a
hayward lad, and the fathers inability to
manage him caused orders TO be given 10
Dunlap regarding the food he was to set
before the youth at the table. When
Patrick sat at his meal and
wanted more than his fathers
bill Of fare called for, the old servant told
him kindly that he must apply TO the old
gentleman for it. This Haley didn't like,
so he grabbed a butcher knife and
plunged it into the old sections body.
The wounded man ran 10 the front door,
asked some one to 60 quick for doctor
and fell down and expired in few mo-
ments. The murderer fed, and his
whereabouts has been unknown until
now. Hewill answer for his crime before
the courts here without delay.
