/ The charge Of fraud III the election re-
turns in Fayette county, W. Ya.,it seems,
was not sustained. The Supreme Court
instructed the Commissioners of Election
to count the vote as returned, which elects
the Republican candidates from that
county and fixes the majority i'll the State
for Wilson, Democrat, for Governor, at
4.97s.
Mr.. McGregor, the prohibition candi
date for Governor, has served notice OF
contest on Mr.. Wilson. the Democratic
candidate. This arises out of the fact
that at the October election an amendment
to the constitution was adopted, changing
the time for electing State officers from
October to November. 1t is commended
that the amendment operates from its
adoption, and that consequently it was ne
cessary to have voted in November to elect
a Governor. The prohibitionists looked
to this phase Of the matter and many Of
them voted for McGregor. The contest
involves every State officer voted for and
the election of a Congressman in the Attn
district, where Democrat was returned
as elected. DR.. Barbee was the Repubh-
can candidate, and it is said he will get his
seat, as at least 500 tickets cast for Me
Gregor and Barbour were thrown out
enough to have elected Mr.. g.. as Gibson7s
majority was less than 200.

EGYPTIAN AFFAIRS.
The Situation as Described by the Pail
Mall Gazette.

LONDON, May 20.
According TO the Pail Mall Gazette. France
asked that before the meeting Of the proposed
conference, England should consent to place
Egypt under international control. Earl
Granville. foreign secretary of State. object
ed, so long as the British military occupa-
ton of Egypt should continue. At that,
France asked thar the duration of the English
occupation be limited. and renewed the de-
mand for immediate International control.
Earl Granville, in answer, named hve
years q minimum for English occupation,
and insisted on the postponement of the pro-
posed international control until after the
English have withdrawn from the country.
But France adhered to the previous demand
until at last Earl Granville offered to consent
TO the principle of multiple control provided
il should be disguised. France accepted,
caring little for the shadow, but anxious for
substance. France is now trying to limit the
English occupation to three years.
The Pail Mall Gazette denounces the
scheme of the multiple control, however it
may be disguised. Such a PROJECT, it says. is
anarchism, and certain to result in disaster as
long as the British soldiers stand alone be-
tween Egypt and anarchy. The contest will
hold the purse strings, and thereby govern
the police of Egypt.
The same paper says the cabinet has de-
cided to accept the French proposal. 1t will
evacuate Egypt within the desired period.and
allow the International board supreme author
ity over the Egyptian. finances. The Sultan
has refused to send 10000 troops to the
Soudan to cooperate with the English.

til past seven o'clock in the evening and re-
suited in an acquittal. Nothing that has oc-
CURED in Bowdoinham for year has occa-
stoned such widespread excitement. The
affair grew out of school trouble. The
grading committee had settled that the pupil
was not qualified to enter the second class in
the school. The principal, Mr.. Ham, direct
ed the boy to change to the third class. The
substance of the matter, as appears on testi-
mony, was that Mr.. Ham punished the boy
with small pointer used for pointing exer-
cises on the blackboard. The punishment
was not heavy. The boy was not bruised or
mutilated. Mr.. Ham was arrested Wednes-
day for assault and battery on complaint of
the parents of the pupil. Saturday he ap-
peared in court, having given personal recog-
nizance. The trial was held in Hinck ley's
Hall. The hall was crowded. The village
left business. The prosecution was conduct
ed by f. J. Millay, Esq, ex-county attorney.
The defence wa. conducted by Judge VIM.

SHUT UP AGAIN.
The Penn Bank Again Closes, Amid
Great Excitement-The President
at Deaths Door.

PITTsBURG, May 26.
The Penn bank closed again at l2 o'clock
today, and posted the following notice on its
door:
Mr. Riddle, president and chief executive
of the bank, having become sundenly and
seriously i'll and unable to communicate
with the board of directors, it is deemed
proper to close the bank, under the existing
circumstances, until he sufficiently RECEIVERS
to be present at an adjustment of its affairs.
The officers have been placed in charge, who
refuse to permit an audience with any of the
board. There is great excitement.
The news of the second suspension spread
rapidly, and created intense excitement and
surprise, owing to the fact that everybody
had faith in the banks ability to pay all
claims against it. The immediate cause is at
present unknown, and nothing definite can
be learned, as the directors positively refuse
to be interviewed. Large crowds have been
flocking to the bank and the pavement in
front is filled with anxious depositors and
persons attracted by curiosity.
Pres. Riddle appeared to be in his usual
health at 10 o'clock this morning, but half an
hour later he was prostrated with hemor-
rhage of the lungs. which has since been
thrice repeated. He is lying at the Duquesne
club rooms unconscious, with only slight
hopes of recovery.
Close friends of Riddle are unable to give
any explanation Of the sudden turn of affairs.
1t is said, however. that there has been a
heavy run on the bank this morning.. princi-
pally in checks, and that s260,000 were
drawn in this way through the clearing
house.
The crash was brought about by the clear
ing house throwing out checks amounting TO
s265 600 According to the statement of the
directors the bank had raised 1881 900 to pay
liabilities of $4,000. 1t is said there were
$500, 900 in certified checks out, which were
not included in the amount, and which had
to be paid. The banks which loaned the sus-
pended bank funds to tide it over are amply
secured.
The cause of Pres. Riddles illness was an
over dose of morphia.
Pres. Riddle recovered consciousness to-
night, and will probably be able to attend to
business in few days.
