"NOTHING BIT LAWNS

NOIH1NG But LAWNS"
French Lawns-One OF the principal reasons that
makes 1t necessary to reduce some lines Is the subst
tuition by fashion of fabric for another. We all
know this is and has been decidedly a white goods
season. and all figured goods have more less suf
fered in consequence. This fact to certain degree
accounts for the low prices.
The quality of these Lawns is the very best and the
variety Is very, very large.
These will be cOnspcuousy displayed this week 1--WE
do not anticipate their lasting longer second

from THE CAPITAL.

5THE seer: tcry OF the treasury has re-
quested all persons having preferred
claims against the New Orleans expo
sition, payable from the appropriation
made by the sundry civil act of March
3, 1885, to transmit the same to the
secretary of the treasury at the earliest
pI acticable date. The Director general
of the exposition has also been request
ed to furnish detail statement Of the
Indebtedness of the exposition out
standing at the date Of the passage Of
the act.
A STORY is current, but not vouched
for, at the Department of Justice, that
Marshal Botkin, of Montana, desires to
resign. Ex-senator Cameron is said to
have asked the Attorney General to &C.
cept resignation if he desired to put
in a democrat. This Mr.. Garland in
stantly refused 10 do. He said that as
a member OF the Judiciary Committee
of the senate he had gone over the
charges against Botkin, and was salts
fed of their truth and justice. Accor-
dinghy he should remove him and ap-
point a good man TO the place. This
story has been told for week CT two,
but there was little reason to balieve it.
A friend of Botkin now says there is a
foundation for it, but that the President
will not sanctiot. the removal.

THE striking quarrymen at Joliet

Iron Cruisers for Russia.

NEW YORK, April 11.-An order
for six fast iron cruisers OF Esmerelda
pattern was received here Thursday.
these vessels we're nominally ordered
by private gentle men just as they
might order steam yachts, will be for
sale when completed and offers of
only one European government will
be entertained. It is thought that the
government will be Russia, Three
permanent features will be in
sisted upon, as follows: Nineteen knots
speed, coal carrying capacity for %
days steaming and buoyaucy for
three riRed cannon of large calibre.
The Esmerelda is regarded by the
prospective owners eff these vessels as
the highest type vessel which floats.
It was built for Chill in England and
by Sir William Armstrong and IS
about four hundred tons.

The king and queen of Spain Wed
nesday received Garibaldi's widow and
son in Madrid. The agreement in re-
gard to the cession Of the island of Cy-
press was signed Wednesday The con-
ditions are that the government shall
build q hospital for seamen and a light
house on the island and preserve Carl
baldi's grave forever.
IT is reported that the British Govern
ment has arranged, in the event of war
with Russia, to have the troops now
operating in the Soudan sent to Gal
mora, and have their places taken by
Turkish soldiers.
The Sir William Armstrong Gun
Manufacturing Company have received
orders from the government for the
immediate construction of ninety field
guns. The employees in this company's
establishment are already working
double time TO fill the government or
ders.
THE j ournal of st. Petersburg states
that General Konlaroff's return with
his lines after driving off the Afghans
indicates that the Russia attack was
caused by hostile acts OF the Afghans.
Thus, the affair assumes a less serious
aspect, and becomes an incidental con.
fict difficult to avoid. considering the
extremely strained condition of affairs,
and the proximity of the Russian and
Afghan outposts. The Journal expresses
the hope that the conflict will not in
terfere with the negotiations now in
progress between England and Russia.
The leading paper Ct st. Petersburg
expls ms that the recent battle on the
Afghanistan border was provoked by
the Afghans, and that on the part of
the Russians it was 'san accidental con-
fict, difficult to avoid" 1t expresses
the hope that the event will not inter-
fere with the pending negotiations
1ur an amicable settlement of the
boundary controversy. The authori-
ties of st. Petersburg have demanded
of the Russian General on the Afghan
istan border an explanation of recent
events. Meantime war preparations
are progressing both in England and
Russia.
The Tories ridicule Russia's reply to
England's demand for an explanation
of General Komaroff's demand for an
attack upon the Afghans, They argue
that IL will be impossible to receive Gen
eral Komaroff's defense within less
than sixteen day and that Russia will
occup that interval as she has occupied
the past seven months in reinforcing
her army and strengthening her po-
sitions on the Afghan frontier. The
Wing section of the Liberal party has
joined the tories in demanding more
vigorous measures. They are urging
the government to send engineer Of
fcers and troops to occupy and
strengthen Chandahar, the capitol of
Central Afghanistan, which is connect
ed by rail with Quetta, and which com,
mands the most practicable route from
Afghanistan into northern India.
