News Hard to Get.

WINNIPEG, April 1.-THE situation is un.
changed and as the government and officials
control all the wires most of the information
is unreliable and only rumors get afioat. All
reliable news is really five days old and
nothing can be learned from the officials.
The GLOBE was the only paper in the United
States to publish Riers letter, the first news
received from him, as it was suppressed here
as all news is Matters seem now to be
much worse than ever, and it really looks
like war from morning until night on the
streets.
SENSATIONAL SPEECHES.
Reports published in other st. Paul and
Eastern papers are only rumors. There are
so, 900 Indians in the Northwest and say the
trouble has just begun and the country may
yet experience all the terrors of massacre
that befell Minnesota in 1862 and other states
and territories in their earlier day.

WINNIPEG, Man, April 11.-Nothing Of
great Importance has been heard from the
West to-day. The latest news from Battle
ford was received this afternoon by the Hud.
son Bay company and was sent by Indian
Agent Rae, who is at that point, as follows:
Al Frog Lake eleven whites were massacred
by the Indians. j. K. Simpson and two

fortifying themselves. A Regina dispatch
states that Col. Irvine and Assistant Com

Albert that all are well but they are short Of
horse feed and are anxiously awaiting help.
Advices from the front say Gen. Middleton's
command is making good progress beyond
Touchwood. Medicine Hat dispatch says
the steamers Baroness, Alberta and
M1nnow, with an compartment
OF twenty scows, left there
this afternoon. The Queens Own and bat

Comments in Washington on the Impend-

WASHINGTON, April 11.-There has been
a rush of callers at the British and Russian
legations. The universal request being for
news and opinions about the war prospects.
At neither place, however, was anything
given out which had not been covered by
the press dispatches. The trouble in Af-
ghanistan is the great theme in army, navy
and diplomatic circles. Careful inquiry shows
that the general impression here is that there
will be war. Navy officers view the matter
| with extraordinary interest," because, they
say, there will be engagements unprece-
dented in the history Of naval warfare.
There will be afforded the first opportunity to
test the efficiency Of guns and armors and
munitions, such as, up TO this time, have
| been prepared upon an experimental basis.
England could enter at once upon war
with thirty iron-clads, most OF them armed
with guns of the heaviest caliber,
ranging from twenty-five TO eighty tons.

with torpedoes and stocking up with the

vantage when It comes to numbers on hand,
with peace army Of $50, 600 men, she shows
on war footing. Army men say that she
has not fewer than 100000 soldiers,
| and this force can be increased
so per cent. Eugland's effective men are
nearly 600, 900 and this number can be con-
siderably increased, but not to approach the
Russian masses. Taking all things into con-
sideration, the official people here look upon
| the two powers as soevenly matched that
war once entered upon would certainly be
long and terribly destructive, none being so

THE RECENT BATTLE

Russia continues her naval and military
preparations with great energy. Admiral
Sheshtakoff has ordered all torpedoes to be
sent to the Baltic and Black sea. Torpedoes
have just been sunk at the canal bounding
st. Petersburg with the sea. Kronstadt, st.
Petersburg and the palace at Krasnoeseto
are now connected by telephone, SO that the
czar will be informed of every movement in
case of an attack by the English fleet. The
Russian fleet has been in thorough state of
readiness since the I'd of April. Kamaroff's
brother, editor of the Russian journal Svet
announces that Russia intends to send 100,
900 men to Herat as soon as the English ad-
vance to Pischin.

BIsMARcK,s OPINION.

Prince Bismarck, in a private converse

there will be no war because of Gladstone's
statement made in the house last Thursday
night, about the Afghans having thrown out
pickets before the Russian advance. The
chancellor assured his friend of the peaceful
disposition of the czar and De Giers. The
popular opinion here is that English news

4 NEW SHIP MOTOR.
Electricity to PrOpel the New boat
Eureka---WilI it RevO1utiOniZe
the Present System?

New York World.
The experimental electric yacht Eure-
ka which has been built by the Poillons
at the foot of Bridge street, Brooklyn,
will be launched next Tuesday or
Wednesday. Her propelling power is
entirely new and is the invention of Dir.
John A. Secor, the son Of Mr.. Samuel
Secor, of the Secor Iron works, who IS
very sanguine that she will be a success.
A stock company has been organized in
order to apply the principle on q large
scale, in case the Eureka fulfills the eX-
pectations of the inventor, and so conf
dent are the holders of the stock at pres
ent that it was said yesterday there was
none of it for sale.
The Eureka is 100 feet long, and is to
be rugged as a fore-and-aft schooner.
Upon each quarter. below the water line,
are two square apertures, one leading ait
and the other forward, and out of these
are to be forced successive explosions of
gas, generated by an electric spark. Her
entire machinery consists OF a dynamo
engine, the fuel used being petroleum.
Old Mr. Secor, the inventors father,
said Yesterday I'VE can have at viii
any number of these explosions, from
one to eighty a minute, so that the speed
of the boat can be regulated at Will The
power can be instantly reversed, that is,
the gas can be forced out OF the holes aft
to send the boat ahead, and out Of those
leading forward to stop her or give her
stern way. OF course she is an expert
ment. If she succeeds she will revoiu
Iionize the whole system of water carri-
age. | expect that we may be able to
go from this city to Newport with this
boat at an expenditure for fuel Of only
81. At present the great cost of running
a steamer is her bill for COAL but it is not
only the cost of coal that makes it eX-
pensive as a fuel; it is the value of the
space that it occupies in the vessel and
the expense of handling it. On the large
ocean steamers over 100 men have to be
employed in the engine department
alone, while by our plan not over twelve
would be required. We expect to run
the Eureka at about eight knots with
about forty explosions q minute. If our
boat is a success we can at n very mod.
crate expense apply it to any Of our
present fleet of coasters, schooncrs and
sloops, as the space required for the ma
chinery is very small and, as have said,
the cost of working it is but trifiing."
Old Mr.. Secor's father it is said, made
the machinery for the Robert Fulton,

bic if his SON should succeed in etfoctng
another revolution at the present time.
