Long Connected with the Central Vermont

Boston, April G.-The death of Lansing
Mills, widely known from his connection
with the Vermont Central railroad, took
place at his residence in Mills this even
ing from paralysis of the heart. He was a
native of Lansingburgh, \. y. In early
life he was engaged in general trade and
subsequently was contractor for build
ing railroads, and in the early days of the
Vermont Central he became connected
with the line as transportation and ticket
agent, residing for time at St. Adams.
His business ability soon advanced him
10 the general management of the road.
He was most active in securing for this
line share in the transportation bust
ness between the West and East, and in
the development of these facilities showed
marked ability He was one of the found
ers of the National Despatch line. The
recent settlement of the complications of
the Central Vermont, upon the present
basis, found in Mr.. Mills an untirng adj

islature from old Ward II, but has since
refused all political honors. East Med

THE BRITISH BURN TAMAL,

naming Oppose the Advance-One
Man Killed and Twelve Wound
ed--The Rebels Retreat To-
ward Tamanieb.

LONDON, April "a despatch from Sua-
kim states that at an early hour this
morning Gen. Graham with his entire
force advanced on Tamai from the adj
vanced zareba formed by Gen. Mcneil last
night. 1t was found that Tamai had
been evacuated by the main body of the
rebels, but the small number remaining
there opposed the British advance. The
fighting lasted only few moments and
the loss by the English was trifling. The
Arabs were routed and fled The town
was then burned.
The conflicting despatch received from
Suakim this morning in regard to the
movements of Gen. Graham's forces leave
a general impression of uncertainty as to
what actually has been the course of
events to-day The belief here is that there
was no fighting to speak of and that the
casualties were very slight. The
men were wounded. Other dispatches,
however, say that one man was. killed
land from six to twelve wounded. The
British found the water at Tamai bad in
quality and insufficient in quantity and
latter setting fire to the village returned to
the zareba from which they set out in the
morning.
A later special from Suakim says The
enemy retreated in the direction of Tam
anieb. The British then burned Tamai.
| Gen. Graham lost one man killed and
twelve wounded during the fighting.
Gen Graham intends to push the rail-
way as far as Handoub and to move his
camp thither. 1t is feared that the search
ty Of water at Tamai indicates similar
want at other places in the hills.
