LONDON, Sept. is. -Gladstone's mani
festo is somewhat disappointing to the
Liberals. while the Conservatives claim to
be greatly pleased at the expressions OF
the ex-premier.
The DAILY Ne7es interprets the mani
festo to mean that MIR. Gladstone intends
to lead his party in the house of commons
and not to retire after the elections. His
objections to free education, the Meies
thinks, are worthy of deep consideration.
1t will be impossible says the Netcs, for
Mr.. Parnell to say with reference to Ire
land that the manifesto is not a message
of peace. Mr.. Gladstone walked to Har-
warden church yesterday with his usual
elastic step. He is looking remarkably
well.
The Telegraph says: What has hitherto
been enunciated by various Liberals will
now sink into oblivion. Both great and
small Liberals must repair to the political
quarry laid open for them. Gladstone
speaks in patriotic words and with a de-
cisiveness against the mad demands of
Mr.. Parnell. The whole document is of
extraordinary interest and gives evidence
of remarkable individual vigor.
The Daily Nelos' Paris correspondent
.telegraphs that Palermo was Illuminated
last night in honor Of the appearance oil
the vision of a saint, carrying with it the
assurance that the cholera epidemic would
soon become extinct.
The Standard this morning says; Mr..
Gladstone's wordy manifesto is weak and
Disappointing. 1t is weak everywhere,
and its ambiguity Is perplexing. The
address is v~agueness itself. The writer
aimed not to define Liberalism, but to
gain as many and to lose as few votes as
possible in the coming general elections.
1t affords him u last chance of recovering
his reputation. 1t is necessary, therefore,
to extend him indulgence"

NJ. A. HANNA,
JAS. W. SAVAGE

JAS. W.
The Chinese consul at San Francisco,
Col. Bee, and the Chinese consul at New
York, are here with a Chinese interpreter
to make a thorough investigation on behalf
of the Chinese government of all the cir
cumstances connected with the outbreak.
They are ordered here by the Chinese
legation at Washington. Col Bee has
already had the remains of some of the
Cinnamon who were killed exhumed. 1t
was found that in two instances the skulls
Of the Cinnamon were fractured, indicat
ing that they were killed in a struggle at
close quarters. The consuls have offered
a reward of SIS each for additional bodies
found in the vicinity. Accurate returns
as to the number of Cinnamon killed can
not yet be made, but so far as can be now
learned there are fifteen missing, and the
whole number found killed is twenty five.
Col. Bee has made up his mind from con-
versations with the citizens and officials
that any attempt to bring the offenders to
Justice through the local authorities will
fail. Ii is his intention TO telegraph
the state department, through the
legation, calling for more rigorous
measures for the prosecution of the
criminals by the United States courts
under the provisions of the treaty with
China. Col. Bee says that all of the pro-
ceedings that have been had in the mat
ter so far are a bold farce, and unless the
matter is taken in hand by the United
States authorities there will be nothing
done. He finds thai eleven of the grand
jury before whom the cases of the men
already arrested will 90, are citizens of
Rock Springs, many of them miners, and
all of them sympathizers with the rioters,
while Of the petty jury, fourteen of the
twenty four are from Rock Springs Col.
Bee states as one remarkable result of
the inquiries that of the men engaged in
the outbreak, not one was an American
born citizen. He deems it especially sig
niicant hal the outcry against the Chi
nese, which is depended upon to Justify
these outrages, comes from men who are
not themselves natives, and many OF
them not citizens Of the United States.
Under instructions from the attorney
general. United States District Attorney
Campbell, came from Cheyenne this
morning to assist the Chinese consuls in
their investigation Of the affair.
AdjtGen. Williams, of Gen Schofeld',
staff has wired Gen. Schofeld a state
ment of the situation and given bis opinion
that in consequence of the amount o.
. guard duty to be done, one hundred mor'
soldiers should be sent here.
Gen McCook is here, having in charge
the Chinese consuls with instructions to
give them the most complete protection
. even from insult or incivility.
! 1t is thought hat work will be resumed
4 in two Of the mines on Monday. Oppor
tunity will be given to all the white min
5 ers who have not been discharged 70

y if they choose, ifthey do not their place

Ors to Secretary Lamar.

RocK SPRINGS AFFAIRS.
Tho Report of the Government
Directors.

Rock SPRINGS, Wyo., Sept. Is
Three Of the government directors of the
Union Pacific railroad, Gen. f. p. Alex
auder, NJ. a. Hanna and James W.
Savage. are here investigating the cir
cumstances attending the late outbreak.
They gave a hearing yesterday to the
committee of citizens who had previously
presented their case TO Mr.. Bromley, the
representative of the company. The case
was presented in much better shape than
upon the former occasion, and the causes
Of complaint were made more Ineligible
and clear. Nothing new, however, APP
peared as to the alleged grievances against
the Chinese or against the employers Of
the miners. The same rule was observed
nected with the outrages, all the witnes.
SEES refusing to say anything whatever
concerning the attacks upon the China
men and the burning up oftheir quarters.
The examination was conducted by Judge
Savage, who was materially aided therein
by Mr.. Hanna, who is himself a mine
owner and is familiar with the subject of
miners grievances. Every opportunity
has been furnished the citizens and miners
to present their grievances.
The government directors decided upon
the facts as shown to send the following
dispatch to Secretary Lamar:
The undersigned government direc-
tors of the Union Pacific railway, pursd-
ant to law, report that We have made in
vestigation upon the spot into the alleged
outrages recently occurring at this place.
We find such a condition of affairs here
as in our opinion endangers the property
of the road, ieopardizes the interests of
the government, and calls for prompt in
reference. We therefore deem it i'm
portant that full authority should be given
the proper officers TO afford ample assist
anee to the managers in their efforts to
protect the property of the company and
conduct the business of the road.
