EGYPT.

Cars, Nov. 26.-Latest reports from
Soudan confirm the news of the defeat
of Hicks Pasha. The panic at Khartoum
is said to bs increasing owing to rHmors
that Ell Mahdi, with large force is ad-
vancing upon that city and has cut OFF all
supplies of grain. Official advices, while
not confirming these rumors, admit the in
hsbitants are leaving Khartoum by boats.
Two transports with gend'armes leave,SUez
tomorrow for Suokin. Baker Pasha will
probably command the expedition. Plans
are being arranged for Notifications at
As5ouan on the right oank of the Nile.
CA1Ro, Nov. 26.-The khedive reviewed
a number of troops about to start fer
Suakim. Military critics are not favor
ably impressed by their appearance.
Emissaries of Ell Mahdi have arrived in
TriPolI and Algeria. Although The optim-
ist reports are not believed, the possibility
OF the Egyptian Soudan army being safe
is being again discussed. Col. Coetlogan
sends a message from Khartoum, dated the
18th, saying Vizitilly, an artist eff the Lon
don Graphic, is the sole survivor of the
recent battle with Ell MahdTs forces and
that be is prisoner at Ell Obeid. Col.
Costlogan says the situation is most criti-
cal.
After the review to-day of troops about
to start for Suakim, their Turkish officers
went to Baker Pasha and refused to 90 to
Soudan, on the ground that their contract
was for service in Egypt alone. He hoped
the matter could be arranged. There is a
general sense of uueasiness, owing to the
signs of a revival of the religious enthusi-
asm, especially at Tantah. The captain
who brought the news of Hicks Pasha's
defeat, states he was allowed
to escape only on protesting
the Moslsm faith. The massacre, he says,
was not 30 universal as at first believed,
as those Egyptian soldiers who were so
disposed were allowed to join the forces of
81 Mahdi. There is reason to believe that
the emissaries Of 81 Mahdi are busy in the
large towns of upper Egypt, and gener-
al rising is feared.
ALEXANDRIA, Nov. 26.-The Egyptian
corvette, Sakhra, and the French cruiser,
Internal, have been ordered to Suakim.
LONDON, Nov. 26.-Khartoum dispatch
says: Arabs report large force OF reoels
close TO Khartoum. Ell Uahdi issued orders
TO all the tribes not to sent corn to Khar-
toum. The dispatch says: We only have
food for a month Only two thousand
men here To defend nearly four miles of
line communication. 1t is perfectly use
less to attempt to hold Khartoum, where
the population is a slumberiDg volcano.
The land line is closed and the river line
may be stopped tomorrow. The rebels
are holding the cliffs overhang!ng th e
silver at Slbuluke

GERnFANE.

BERLIN, Nov. % The lover house in the
Prussian diet, began the debate upon the
annual estimates. ScholZ. minister of
fnsnce, described the financial situation
Of The Siugdom rs favorable, owing TO a
surplus of 29,000,000 marks, which have
been mainly derived from tbs earnings of
railways. Twelve million marks surplus
have been applied TO the REDEEM ption of the
railway debt. Il Is expected that the re-
ca.pts 10 be derived from the adNinistrs-
tion of the forest will exceed the estimates
by 100000 marks. These estimates are
partly based upon expectations as the
rsjchstag will event aally increase the duties
upon timber. The government, Scholz
stated, had no intention of levying an in
come tax on jOiut stock companies and
personal property before April 8 h, 1885
BERuIN, Nov. 26.-The Paris correspon-
dent of the Cologne Gdzette says: Even if
the Chinese regulars oppose the French in
TouGuin, France will not consider it a
cdSuS belt. She viii DOT blockade the
Chinese coast nor lombard the maritime
towns, especially from fear of complica-
tions with Englaud. France Is convinced
that British shippers would not respect
the blockade. IL. in case of a blockade,
France should capture English vessels IL is
feared England will be compelled to inter.
fere seriously. Thsrs is therefore reason
to believe that Ferry is favorable to receive
an offer of English mediation. Unless
China declares war after the attack on Bac
mini, hostihties will remain semi-oficial
and be confined to the Red River delta

sons, charging them with coming false
money, ana then if the accused were will
ing to pay heavy bride tho prosecution
was stopped, but if they refused to give
the amount demanded, conviction was
usually secured through perjured testi
mony of police agents and bought witness
es The plot was discovered through the
failure of Bahri Pasha to pay those whom

victed are now serving long terms OF i'm
prisonment in consequence OF their refusal
to submit to the demands of the black
