An Anglo. Egyptian official, just re-
turned from Cairo, gave some interesting
information on the condition that his name
should not be divulged. He says the
situation in Egypt is deplorable. The
city of Cairo especially is becoming de-
bauched by the sudden plethora of mon

stated that ex-senator Roscoe Conkling
has decided to come out openly against
Blaine and support Cleveland. He
will probably address mass meeting
in this city on Wednesday or Thursday.

earlier had he believed that there was
any danger of Blaine's election. He is
disinclned to re-enter the political field,

now he yields, at the solicitation of his
Stalwart friends, who desire him to
take a determined stand for an honest
government, and he and they unite aud
bolt against Blaine.
