Another Effort Made to Remove Receiver
Howard,

A special from Springfield Ill, states that in
the United States Circuit Court, G. W. Fair
banks, of Indianapolis, filed additional reas-
ons in support of the petition for the removal of
Howard from the position of receivar of the OAR
vile, Olney & Ohio River railroad. The at
torney for the opposing bond-holders asked for
ten days to answer, which was granted. As an
impression prevails that this fight to remove
Charles Howard as receiver of this property is
done in the interest of the Indiana, Bloomington
& Western Railroad Company, it is proper to
state that Austin Corbin is, through c. w. Fair
banks, pressing the matter only to protect the
holders of certain classes of bonds of the D., O..
s. o. II. road, which were taken by Eastern cap
italists on the personal recommendation of Mr..
Corbin, and he believes that his plans of
reorganization carried out said bondholders
would not suffer to the extent which they will
should what is known as the Ware clique carry
out their schemes.

ter known as the Iowa pool was decided upon, to
take. effect to-day. During the conference it was
ascertained that what is known the eight
point pool" covering certain points in the Col
oradO and Nebraska traffic association, and GOV
ering Utah business originating east of the Mis-
souri, river which are both included in the Iowa
pool, had not been mentioned in the notice given
by the roads of their intention to withdraw from
the pool, and that thirty days notice was neces-
STATED in the case of these also which
given at this meeting. 1t was then
decided by all the roads present to maintain the
existing rates until Thursday of the present
week, when another meeting win be held in this
city at which the Burlington will be represented,
and when the terms upon which that road can
enter the new Western railway alliance will be
stated. Burlington officials are absolutely non
committal as to the course they will pursue, and
simply state that they are waiting to know the
terms of the tripartite agreement as affecting
their line 1t is tacitly admitted that on the re-
suit of Thursdays meeting hinges peace or war.
The report telegraphed that the Southwestern
Railway Association will be abolished, as well as
the Southwestern pool by reason of the present
complications is declared to be untrue.

BUTLER WILL HANG.
The Supreme Court Holds that It Cannot
COnstitutiOnally Grant Reprieve.

The Supreme Court yesterday overruled the
motion for suspension of the death sentence of
Charles w. Butler the wife murderer condemned
to hang at Columbia City tomorrow. The de-
cision, which will be written by the court to-day,
holds that the Constitution grants the power of
giving a respite to the Governor only which is
directly contrary to decision in the Fifty first
Indiana Report, wherein the Supreme Court
holds that the Governors power to grant re-
prieves or remit fines is not invested in him
exclusively, but may be exercised also by the
courts The argument upon the question
of the condemned man : sanity, upon which the
appeal for new trial was made. will be
heard, but there is little probability that the
great mass of evidence can be examined before
the execution and it is not at all likely that it
will be postponed until a decision can be
reached, for the reason that it is believed that
the counsel in the case have delayed proceed
ings with the hope of getting a respite or com
mutation Of the sentence.

A Remarkable Case.

Alexander Hugstock, of Upton, was brought
to this city under arrest as deserter, yester
day. In 1864 Hugstock was in the city on a
furlough and was arrested as deserter, and de-
tanned until the expiration of his furlough, when
he was forced to rejoin his regiment He was
then placed under guard to await trial on the
charge, but pending his trial he escaped and de
serted. He returned to Upton eventually, and
the case has been allowed to rest until now. The
case is in many respects a most remarkable one.

WRECK INQUIRY.
The Captain Suggests Magnetic Vari-
alton of the Needle.

HALIFAX, April 9.-The inquiry into the
loss of the steamer Daniel Steinmann was re-
sumed to-day by Capt. Scott. Capt. Schoon-
hoven appeared voluntarily, with the Belgian
consul, and made sworn statement detail.
ing the circumstances of the wreck substan-
TALLY the same as already published. He
heard the fog whistle one-half minute before
striking, but then too late. He considered
the cause of the loss of the ship the strong
current to the westward. He had overrun
his distance, and perhaps some magnetic at
traction to the compass which put him further
south than he really thought. He had esti-
mated himself at least seven to ten miles
astern of his real position, having calculated
he was twenty-five miles off at
p. m. He had a proper compass on the
ship and was steering by it, He never found
any deviation by it on westerly course. He
had discovered magnetic influences when in
the Gulf of st. Lawrence last year, and the
same compass was out of the way point to
a point and a half, putting US westerly that
much, and it may have been the same in
this case, though he did not think so, and
did not suppose so. Had gun been fired
from the island when the signal men first
saw him, he would certainly have kept off
and saved the ship. When ashore, he spoke
of it, and the gunners told him they had no
order to fire except in answer to guns fired
at sea. In fact, they had instructions not to
fire while the fog whistle was in order, and
working Had life boat been on shore,
more lives might have been saved.

THE CUBAN RISING.
Spain Has No Fears of Unfriendly
Action by the United States.

MADRID, April 9.-News is received here
from Cuba that Agueros' force now numbers
225 men. OF these forty-three are either ex-
chiefs Of the late Instructions in Cuba, or
have been otherwise identified with those
movements; the balance are escaped slaves.
Four plantations in Cuba were destroyed by
Aguero. 1t is feared another filibustering
expedition is now fitting out at Turks Island
for Cuba. This island is under British dom
inion.
LONDON, April Information is received
that in officialcircles in Madrid no conf
dence is placed in the story that United
States Minister Foster has started to Wash
ington for the purpose of talking up the COM
mercial treaty between Spain and the United
States. 1t is not believed in Madrid that the
United States would consent to become in
volved in the disputes that would necessarily
arise if the question of buying Cuba should
be broached. 1t is known there that since
Aguero started from Key West the Spanish
insurrection has gained considerable strength.
Nevertheless, the belief in the steadfastness
of American friendship is so strong that
there are no fears in official circles of any
movement on the part of the United States
or its departments TO complicate the matter
by even suggesting the purchase of Cuba. AS
to the other nations of Europe interfering,
the good understanding of Germany and
Spain will, it is said, etfectually prevent any

Discovery of New Geyser Basin.
TSnecial Telegram to the Globe |

BOHEMIAN, NJ. T., April "a party of
prospectors have arrived here from the Upper
Yellowstone bringing information that they
had discovered new and very interesting
geyser basin. 1t is on the east side of the
Yellowstone near the mouth of small water
course which is set down on the chart as
Deep creek, region of almost inaccessible
ruggedness. The discoverers report that
they saw two geysersi in action of great power,
and that the evidences of geyser action gen.
orally are very marked. The new basin be-
ing near the deepest part of the canyon, it
will only be possible to reach it by circuit
GUS route by crossing to the east side of the
Yellowstone just above the mouth of the East
Fork, and going northward over Specimen
Ridge. About ten miles north from the new
basin is the petrifed forest.

NEW YORK.
Special Telegram to the Globe.


New YORK, April 9.-The stock market
was rather firm during the first hour, with
Lake Shore and Union Pacific as the leaders.
At about 73 there appeared to be plenty OF
the latter for sale and drop to below 72
followed. Western Union was aweak feature
also and seems to be without friends. Busi-
ness was very light throughout the day. At
times there was hardly anything doing.
Chicago Burlington 81 Quincy was in de-
mand, selling above $1.25. The Grangers
barely held their own, with a very
light trade in them. There was
little in the way of news afoat Outsiders
appear to be doing nothing in stocks. The
scalpers on the floor have the market to
themselves and have to be satisfied with
moderate profits. There was no change for
the better in the late dealings. Manitoba
was somewhat active, with decline of over
per cent. in it, and there was some fair
selling of Western Union Telegraph and
Union Pacific. Prices were at about the low
est for the day when the exchange closed.
A. NJ Day says: 'The bull gathered some
courage from the strength of the market In
the early hours, and reports that Commack
was covering shorts all along the line. The
market continued dull, strong and featureless
until the last hour, when it became weaker
and closed, after a. steady decline, with no re-
covery. Union Pacific was the leader in the
advance, up to 70, at which
point it was in good demand, but
closed heavy at II. The Gould brokers sold
Central Pacific down, but at Sc there was
considerable buying for foreign account by
German houses. The decline during the
last hour was caused by the Gould brokers,
who raidedthe entire market furiouslv, max
ing special drive at Union Pacific and
Central Pacific, offering the stock nc below
the market.n
