leaving Nj. McGregor. he body
will rema IN al Albany over nigh;
and Will line in state at the City
Hall, New York. the following
day.

like, his face having assumed
most natural color and express
ion. 1t has been stated that Pres
itlent Cleveland and Cabinet will
attend the funeral. though they
have not as get made further ar
rangemen's.

The Feeling in London.

LONDON, April 13-There is no improve
ment in the feeling here, and although
affairs have settled down TO the usual routine,
the conviction is general that q war with
Russia is inevitable, as nothing short of
complete back down by Russia will appease
the wrath of the people. The answer of NJ
de Giers to England's demand for an expla
nation of Gen Komaroff's action gives
anything but satisfaction and is looked
upon as another diplomatic ruse
to gain time for further preparations. Little
or no faith is placed in the Russian govern
ment's protestations of entire ignorance of
the causes which led to the conflict on the
border, and in political circles the opinion is
freely expressed that Mr.. Gladstone will find
himself sorely pressed by the Tory and Wing
leaders in the house unless he moves quickly
in ascertaining at once what Russia intends
to do in the way of reparation for the action
of Gen. Komaroff, or whether any is
intended The Conservatives pooh-pooh
the idea that the St Petersburg officials are
not kept fully posted concerning affairs on
the Afghan frontier, and assert that it is
their belief that the Russian minister Of war
was not only fully cognizant of what was
transpiring, but had ordered the command
ing officer of the Russian forces on the
Kushk river to resent, at once, by force the
slightest act not in strict conformity with
the arrangements between England and
Russia, pending the settlement OF the
frontier question 1t is stated
that the foreign offices is ii
receipt of dispatches announcing
that the Russian war officials are hurryine
troops to the frontier as rapidly as possible.
The forces at Penj4eh, it is stated, have
been reinforced by three regiments of in
fantry with cavalry and artillery from TiiiIs,
Fhe Russian posts Of observation on the Per
sian frontier south of PulI-Khatun, have
it is said, been reinforced by two Regiments

An OpnortunItv for America.

NEW YORK, April IA Philadelphia
correspondent of the Herald says: 1t was
stated to the writer that the Guion and
American steamship companies had been
approached by the British admiralty for
terms at which the vessels would be leased
to that government Another steamship
agent went so far es 20 state that the
British nations claims upon the vessel
of his line might be asserted at any
hour The vessels of the American COM
pany all carry the British flag, under the
statute that only American built craft can
fly the flag of this land. The agent sail
that if Russia inaugurated the aggressive
warfare that was possible fer her this statute
would prevent the American people from
taking advantage of the splendid oppor-
tunity which such condition of things
would present for their regatning
their once proud position on the
seas He even suggested that in the
event of war an extra session of congress
ought to be called to take advantage OF a
situation that may not recur again in CEN
tury. Americas future" said he, belongs
to her, and she has stood long enough upon
cour tesy and the amenities of trade. She
must regain what she lost during the four

Indiana's Interest In Illinois Affairs

CINCINNATI April l3 A Washington cor
respondent telegraphs the following: A new
element in the Illinois senatorial fight has
developed in the interest shown by the In
diana statesmen in booming Gen. Blacks
candidacy and inducing Col Morrison to
retire from the fight The explanation of
the Indiana interest in the affairs of her sis
ter state is that Gen. Blacks retirement from
the pension office woull. it is said, lead
to the promotion of Deputy Com
missioner Mclean, of Indiana, to be com
missioner of pensions. This incentive has
stirred up the lndianians TO an extent that
may prove important in so close contest
There is general feeling among Illinois
Democrats in Washington that the talk OF
any other compromise candidate than
Black is uufounded The Democratic fight
now hinges ON the question a,
to whether Col Morrison should
| or should not retire in favor
of Gen Black Sentiment on
| the question is divided. Gen Sparks, tbe
commissioner of the land office, is loyal Il
Morrison and resists the efforts to super
! sede him by another candidate ursess ht
| shall voluntarily retire Many of the othel
| Illinois Democrats are loud in the demand
that Morrison should give way to more
| popular man. One OF the stories i'll circula
tion is that Gen. Black has received pledgt
| of two Republican votes.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April Is. An order
for six fast iron cruisers, of the Esmeralda
pattern, has been received in this city.
These vessels are nominally ordered by pri-
vate gentlemen, just as they might order
steam yachts, but they will be for sale when
completed and the offers of only one
European government WIN be enter
tained. 1t is thught that govern
ment will be Russia. Three para
mount features will be insisted on, namely,
nineteen knots of speed and coal-carrying
capacity for twenty-five days steaming,
and buoyancy for three steel, rifled cannon
Of large caliber. The Esmeralda is regarded
by the prospective owners Of these vessels
as the highest type Of war vesSei
that floats. 1t was built for Chit
in England, by Sir William Arm
strong, and is about 1000 tons The
six vessels to be built on her model will
not exceed 9, 200 in size, and will not have
an ounce of unnecessary plating upon them
The syndicate of capitalists interested in this
scheme believe in making money by selling
ships, just as their colleagues in the grain
and produce business hope to improve theiI
condition by feeding the strug cling nations,
and hold that provisions are quite as much
contraband of war as ships The keels foI
these vessels will be laid Immediately.

JOLIET, Ills, April 1S-The strike is now
general in the great stone-quarry fields. ex-
tending from Chicago and taking in Sum
nit, Lemont, Sagbridge Lockport and Joliet,
along the Illinoi' and Michigan canal. The
stone companies are in conference in
Chicago arranging a settlement The strike
is peaceable, but desperately determined,
and public sympathy is with the men be-
cause the wages-$l. 25 per day-are nhso-
lutely inadequate Governor Ogesby has
declined to order out the troops, as the com
panies requested, because the men are not
violent, and because they keep justice and
law ON their side, and thus bloodshed ha'
been avoided
