Marshal Atkinson came down from Point Pleas

four deputies, before daylight this morning ar
rested twenty employees of the Keystone Bridge
Company, including Superintendent Baird, and
took possession of the bridge, which was barri-

bridge, and warrants were issued by the State

made to make arrests. This will produce col

The SaigOnnais narrates rather dramatic in
cident which occurred at the capture of Sontay,
and brought the resistance of the besieged to an
end. The French admiral, we are told had
taken his stand on some breastworks which had
been thrown up near the Notifications, and was
personally directing the operations of the attack

the fire from the town suddenly slackened and
soon ceased altogether. The Viceroy of Yum
Nan, it appears, had always believed Sontay to
be an impregnabe fortress, and when he learned
that the French were marching upon it he set
out for the place himself, as he wished to be
present to witness their defeat, which he regard
ed as inevitable. Accompanied by the first leu

danger of the fall of Khartoum was over but
Sir Evelyn Barring, the British minister at Cairo,
urges the dispatch of a British contingent to
Berber, either by way of Komsko, or two squad
rons from the troops at Suakim. The Marquis
of Harrington Secretary of State for War has
appointed council at the War Office 1t is be-
lieved that the Cabinet is in favor of an expedi-
ton from Suakim.
In view of the likelihood of joint naval and
military expedition up the Nile, the Admiralty
has directed Admiral Hay to survey the upper
waters of that stream, so as to learn whether it
would be feasible to send gunboats thither Sew
eral naval officers have left Alexandria to carry
out the survey.
Suakim is unhealthy. It is proposed to leave
400 British soldiers there, to be relieved every
fortnight, and station the remainder of the
troops at healthier points. Admiral Hewitt is
sanguine of being able to open the Berber route.
He proposes to divide the road into sections and
make the tribes answerable for their respective
divisions. The troops will advance on Wednes-
day to form camps around Tamanieb and at
tempt to surround Osman Digma.
1t is believed from latest intelligence received
from the rebels position, that Osman DIgmas
forces have almost entirely deserted him.

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
Arrangements Completed for the National
Gathering at Chicago,

CHICAGO, March 22.-The subcommittee on
arrangements for the national Republican con-
vention began its session here to-day, Senator
Sabin, Hon. John G. New and John H. Clough
as proxy for Senator Logan, being the only
members of the committee present. John A.
Martin, W. c. Cooper, E. S. Magee and Powell
i. Clayton the other members were expected
during the day. A design of the Exposition
Building as it will be arranged for the May Fes
tival was submitted. The plan contemplates
seating capacity for 200 people, which in
cludes stage capacity for 1000. The members
of the subcommittee appeared to favor the plan,
but no action will be taken until the arrival of
the full committee.
The committee later decided to hold the con
ventlon in the Exposition Building, and in the
auditorium to be constructed for the May
Musical Festival This will accommodate 8, 900
people by utilizing the galleries. 1t was decided,
however, to limit the issue of tickets to 5000,
which will be printed on a steel plate to prevent
counterfeiting.
The national committee transferred other pre-
lminary details for holding the convention to
committee of citizens, who will at once begin
raising funds to meet all local expenses. 1t is
determined not to sell tickets of admission, as in
1880. if it can possibly be avoided.
The members of the national committee have
instructed the local committee to outline their
plan for hOiulnS tine oonvon tion, and report the
details 80 the national committeeman next Tues
day, to which date adjournment was taken.

Egyptian Letter.
Shendy is renowned as the place where Ismail
Pasha, the son of the great Mehemet Ali,
was assassinated in 1921, and the town was in
reprisal, razed to the ground by the Egyptians.
The story is a good example of Eastern charac-
ter Ismail Pasha had been deputed by his
father to collect some arrears Of tribute from the
ferocious chief who had been the scourge of the
country, and who himself had earned the

presence, and peremptorily commanded large
supplies for his troops forthwith With pretend

The Gladstone Ministry Shaping Matters to
Take Appeal to the Country.
LONDON, March 23.-Parliament continues to
be the scorn of everybody. Appropriations still
consume most of the time, and the rest is frit
tered away by questions and obstructive mo-
tions. A Conservative leader has seriously dam
aged his party by blurtng out their object is to
stop legislation and force dissolution. The
game is not, however, skillfully played. The
Standard, which, though a strong Con
servative organ, loves to play the
candid friend, has articles and let
ters denouncing Conservative obstructive
ness, and the Cabinet has been enabled to take
up the strong position that they won't be bull
dozed or filibustered into a premature dissolu-
ton. The narrow escape, too, of the govern
ment from defeat last Saturday has greatly So
bered its party, and though there is much grum-
bling about Egypt the Liberals once again stand
solid: Their favorite idea at present is to allow
the Conservatives to go wasting time until
certain period of the session. then to take up the
franchise bill. and then, if necessary, to appeal
to the country on the double cry of upholding
popular rights and putting down parliamentary

close of Congress and render reports which may

The Springer committee showed its cloven foot

some of the committee that Sam
