The SOudan War.

LONDON, February l3.-It has been
decided to take no steps looking to the
calling out Of the reserves till after Par
Lament has assembled.
CHARGES AGAINST THE GOVERN
MENT.
LONDON, February l3.-The Con-
sentative papers have charged the Gov
eminent with suppressing General Cor
don's diary and letter in which that
officer stated that he had sent Colonel
Stewart away from Khartoum in order
to save his (Stewart's) life, intending
himself to meet death at KhartOum, as
he knew no help could reach there in
time to rescue him. When the Parlia-
ment assemblies the production of all
dispatches of the Government in regard
to the Soudan campaign will be de-
manded.
The Marquis Of Harrington, Sccre-
tary of State for War, advises the ac-
ceptance of the offers from Canada and
New South Wales to send troops to the
Soudan. but the War-Oifice authorities
oppose the proposition. The question
will be referred to the Cabinet for de-
cision. Owing to the opposition of the
Duke Of Cambridge, COMMANDMENTS
chief, and other officers. it is probable
that the Ministry will decide to inform
Canada and New South Wales that
their assistance is not needed. The
Canadian yoyageurs who were with
the Nile expedition left Alexandria in
the steamer Poonah, which will convey
them direct to Queenstown. There
they will embark in the steamer Hano-
ycnan for home and will reach Quebec
the first week in March. Dispatches
from General Wolseley compliment the
yoyageurs for their services.
A London syndicate has made an offer
to the Government to construct rail-
way from Suakim to Berber, building
block-houSeS at intervals to guard the
line, if guaranteed 4! per cent. income

tanned n the bill proposed direct sub

tanned m the bill proposed direct sub
sidy TO vessels whether they carried
mail or not. If the Government on
tered into contract with the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company--that pow
erful corporation which had been press
ing this measure with such industry
il would receive Gas, 900 where II now
received eel, 900, and IT would receive
that whether it carried the mails or not.
1t was a naked subsidy.
Mr.. Holman referred to an occasion
years ago when this same Pacific Mail
Company had sought and obtained a
subsidy, as the result Of which many
legislators had suffered shame and po-
litical death, and said he, for one, was
not willing TO see such demoralizing
principle again obtain standing in the
American Congress.
Mr.. Hunt, of Louisiana, defended the
Appropriations Committee, and main
tanned that no subsidy was involved in
the pending clause.
Mr.. Blount, Of Georgia, said that the
House was brought face to face with
the question Of subsidies. The argu-
ments made by the gentlemen in sup
port of the provision demonstrated that
this was subsidy. They called the
attention Of the House TO the fact that
foreign Governments paid large subsi-
dies to their steamship lines, and that
these lines would 60 down il they were
not subsidized.
Referring to Mr.. Holman's caution
against the recurrence Of the disaster
of former years, Mr.. Blount said that
Congress had then granted large sums
Of money to aid the Pacific mail, and
what had been the result? 1t was a
scandal TO the party in power. From
that hour until now public judgment
had been averse to subsidies, and he
trusted that in the presence Of an in
coming Administration, with the DEM
Ocratic party on record here for years,
the party in the House to-day and for
all time would stand against what he
believed to be neither more nor less
than subsidy.
Finally Mr.. Holman modified his
motion so as to move merely to strike
out the provision without the insertion
of the clause reenacting sections 1916
and 1903 of the Revised Statutes. The
motion was agreed to-l05 to o.
amid applause on the Democratic side.
On motion of Mr.. Cox, of New
York, an amendment was adopted di-
recting the Postmaster-G General to in
struct his subordinates to publish on
the foreign bulletin-board in the post
Office building in New York the time Of
the arrival Of foreign-mail steamships.
On motion of Mr.. Bingham, Of Penn
sylyania, an amendment was adopted
providing that the rate on drop-letters,
including the delivery at the letter
carrier offices, shall be two cents
per ounce. The committee then
rose and reported the bill to the House,
and, the previous question having been
ordered on the bill, the House took
recess until 8 O'Clock; the evening ses-
sion to be for the consideration Of pen
sion bills.
The House at its evening session
passed bills removing the political disa
bilties of L. p. Alexander, of Georgia
Alfred Iverson, of Florida j. r. Ham
ilton, of North Carolina, and j. X.
Mitchell, of Virginia. A dozen pension
bills were passed, and at 10 O'Clock the
House took q recess until 10 o'clock to-
morrow.

The Illinois Senatorship.

CHICAGO, February ia special
to the Daily Ne0s from Springfield
says In the Senate this morning Sena-
tor Whitney placed General Logan in
nomination for United States senator.
The motion to proceed to a ballot was
defeated, ewing to the refusal of Sena-
tor Ruger to vote. The Republicans
were surprised at this action, and
claimed that on Senator Ruger's pro-
mise to vote with them they decided to
bring up the motion for ballot. At
noon the Senate decided to join the
House in joint session, and shortly
afterwards so senator's joined the IA
representatives. Representative Parker
nominated Logan, and Linegar spoke
for Morrison. He eulogized them both
as soldiers, but endorsed MorrisOn's
tariff views. When it came to a vote
in joint session, with one absentee on
each side, both parties refused to vote,
and an adjournment was taken until
noon tomorrow.

Death of Colonel Thomas Buford.


LOUISVILLE, KY, February l3.-
Colonel Thomas Buford, brother Of
General Abe Buford, and slayer of
Judge Elliott, Of the Court Of Appeals,
died this morning at the Anchorage
(Ky.) Lunatic Asylum. after long ILL
ness, from chronic disease. Colonel
Buford shot and killed Judge Elliott
for rendering decision against his sis
ter in a case involving considerable
property. After trial Colonel Buford
was adiudged lunatc and sent to the
asylum, from which place he escaped,
going across the river to Indiana. where
he lived for about a year hunting
and fishing, the asylum officials being
unable under the law to bring him
back to Kentucky. Without friends or
money. Buford grew sick. and. finally.
was forced by want to 60 back to the
asylum, where he remained until his
death. 1t is only seven years since he
killed Judge Elliott; but in that time
Buford saw his family lose all their
property, and the trouble Of his brother
was undoubtedly the cause of the sui
eide Of the noted turfman, General Abe
Buford, who killed himself last summer.
