RIEL'S REBELLION.
No More Fighting Expected for a
Day or Two, IF At All.
Fears that Gen. Middleton will Meet the
Fate Of Custer.

WINNIPEG, April Pa telegram has been
received by the authorities at Ottawa from
Gen. Strange. He advises sending all avail
able troops into the Saskatchewan country
west of Battleford where the Indians are
gathering in great force. He confirms the &C.
counts of the Frog Lake and Saddle Lake
massscres, aud has learned that two white
women, supposed to be Mrs. Gowanlock and
MRS. Delaney, have been sent by the Indians
to the half breeds to be held as hostages
The impression prevails here that there will
be no more fighting for day or two aud very
likely not at all. The Halifax battalion had
been ordered to leave there this afternoon, but
the order was countermanded to-day.
A Colgarry courier arrived there last eve
ming from the north, having made a forced
march. He reports that Gen. Strange with
the first division is camped on the north side
OF Red Deer river. Strange has decided to
push TO on the Battle river without waiting for
the left wing under Percy. Strange states
tnat the Cree Indians were induced TO make a
raid on the Hudson Bay Company's and
Boxers stores and on the glass house because
the half breeds told them that the whites had
been beaten at Duck lake and that the half
breeds were capturing the stores. Bobtail
Ermine Robe and Sampson, chiefs of the
Crees at Battle river, have been arrested by
Major Steele and they are held responsible for
the raid. Pot-pah, Strach and his brother,
who have small band of Crees on the Col
garry trail near Edmonton, have been acting
Rgly but their numbers are too small to do
serious damage.
No new war news has reached Medicine
Hat, except that Middleton is after the enemy
with only 120 mounted men leaving his entire
force behind. 1t is feared that he will meet
the fate OF Custer, and sad news is hourly ex-
pected by the "old timers"

THE ISTHMUs TROUBLE.
Why American Troops Were
Withdrawn from Panama.
Tie Course Of Admiral J0uett Adversely
Criticised.

NEW YORK, April ga Panama special
ssl French influence Is supreme here. The
Ft sach people living at Panama boast that the
preeest from Paris caused the American troops
10 ave the city. The local papers declare the
saiie thing. An American bark which was
captnred by the rebels has been retaken by the
Alliance and sent to Cuba. Ruiz and 60 in
sHlgents are on board.
IANAMA, April 28-(via Galveston. .)-There
is ~ GoubE in the pablic mind here bat that
thS sfety of the city is due to the prompt
&C OF Commander McCalla in taking
ctsge OF the place at a time when formidable
y cades were being erected and prepara-
til son large scale were going on to resist
ttA, 5se Il. troosss when they arrived. Be-,
cause OF these preparations no doubt exists but
that immense loss of life and property would
have taken place. The moral effect of the
occupation by United States troops was very
great. Not shot has been heard in the city
since they withdrew, but order and legitimate
authority have not yet been re- established,
and any further withdrawal at present would
be fatal mistake, the consequences of which
are not calculable.
NEW YORK, April pa " Washington special
says: The Navy Department authorities are
waiting with some anxiety for additional in
formation from Panama. There is no disposi-
tion uDiustly to criticise Admiral Jouett, but
1t is clear that the government doubts the wis
dom OF his course in Withdrawing the troops,
and there are apprehensions that In case of
violence resulting in the destruction of prop.
erty, the United States may in some way be
held liable. 1t is thought that Admiral Jouett
has important reasons for his courfe which
have not been fully disclosed in the dispatches
which have been received. One of these rea-
sons may be that the Colombian government
has indicated its disapproval of the occupation
by the American commander. In the early
stages OF the Panama difficulty, the officer in
charge was sharply, and as it appeared after
ward unjustly, criticised for conduct which
has proved to have been wise; and for these
and other reasons the authorities do not ex-
press any public criticism of the action of
Admiral Jouett, although the reasons in which
it may be all that his Judgment was exercised
are not yet apparent. Privately, some of the
most experienced officers say that Admiral
Jouett has acted very unwisely.
PANAMA, via Galveston.-Iambus Cambina,
messenger of the diplomatic corps of Bogota,
arrived at Panama this morning, with the ma
tional troops, which consist chiefly of volunteers
from Cauca, under command of Montoya, who
has sent Aizpuru notice to leave the city in 4S
hours. Aizpuru now says he will fight. II he
does not evacuate the city the other troops Will
try TO dislodge him, snd unless the United
States troops interfere the city will stand q
poor chance, and if Aizpuru remains in the
city the struggle will be indefinitely prolonged.

An Effor, for Blaney's Reprie,e.

An attempt is to be made to obtain re-
prieve and change Of sentence from death to
imprisonment for life, for Oscar Baney, who
was convicted with Mrs. Barrows for the muir
der OF Thomas Barrows OF Kittery. Hon.
Henry B. Cleaves, who, as Attorney General,
conducted the case on the part OF government,
proposes not only to protest against the execu-
tion OF Blaney, but will place all the facts con-
nected with the case before Gov. Robis and
Council. 1t will be shown that without the
testimony given by Oscar on the stand, the
conviction of Mrs. Barrows, the real criminal
and instigatot of the murder, would have been
rendered very improbable. 1t will also be
shown that from the moment when Oscar was
arrested, up to the time when Attorney Gen-
eral Cleaves went to Saco to try the case, it
was Oscar Blaney who furnished Information
that enabled tue officers to work up the case
When, in the course of preparation of the
government side of the case o point was
found which the government detective could
not explain, he would see Oscar, who would
clear it up. This continued up the time when
General Cleayes took the case. General

GEN. GRANT.
His Condition Growing Better Daily.


NEW YORK, April 28-Dr. Douglass yester-
day felt some anxiety lest General Grant
should become excessively weary with the un-
due excitement attending his birthday That
was the reason why DR.. Douglass called at 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon. But when the
physician left this morning, he said that the
General was as well this morning as yesterday
morning, and that he is daily growing stronger.
Tho General slept soon after 10 o'clock last
night, but with intervals of wakefulness, until
between 3 and 4 o'clock this morning. Then
he fell into natural slumber until o'clock
this morning. Then the General awoke from
his sleep, but for an hour afterward dozed and
rested.
The presents and congratulations continued
to-day, several being received from California
and distant points.

natl called and had an interview with the
General. He expresses belief in the Gen.

A Ready-Made City.
Sending Out Houses In Sections feE the
Use Of the AspinwalI People.

Il
Stevedores were busy storing lumber and
sections of wooden houses in the hold Of the
steamer Colon at the foot Of Canal street all
day yesterday. The portable houses were
ordered by the wealthier residents and mer-
chants of Aspinwall to replace the buildings
that the insurgents burned. The lumber
will be used in the construction of new
wharves by the railroad company. Its Of
fee buildings of brick and corrugated iron es-
capped the flames.
When the Colon got back from AspinwAlI
9 few days ago the stevedores excavated big
bags and boxes of metal that looked like
chunks of iron Stag. The bags and boxes
were expressed yesterday to various city
merchants interested in Aspinwall trade.
"That slae-like stuff" Superintendent
Bullay, OF the Pacific Mail Steamship Com
pany, said, sis the silver money. 1t was all
melted up in the big FIRE. Storekeepers
shoveled 1t up from the ruins after things
cooled down. and shipped It to this city. It
was all Peruvian aud IColumbian coin.

Howard House on It's own hook. This used
to be the big hostelry of the town. The
other buildings, with few exceptions, will DO
run up on the old plan of half a century ago.
Yellow and white pine will be the CHIEF ma
terial. as brick is hard to get, and wages are
high in Aspinwall on account of the demand
on the canal. Superintendent Bullay said
the plan of building would be as spasmodic
and unique as ever. Generally the citizen
puts up a small one story wooden house
that looks as though it had been slapped to-
gether In half an hour. In couple of
months he gets an idea that 1t ought to be
larger. Then he puts up an extension. AZ
ter that be gets stylish, and runs up paint
ed veranda. Next he piles on another story
and still later he slices the whole thing up
with beams into a lot Of sleeping rooms.
Nearly every house that was ever built In
Aspinwall exhibited these aspects of eccen-
trio progression. Aspinwall merchants In
town SAID yesterday that there was no reason
to suppose that this indigenous building sys-
TEN OF the little island would be deviated
from in the present building activity.
''The trouble is" Superintendent Bullay
said, ''that nobody can tell what Aspinwall
is going to be from one year to another. It
is ephemeral and chaDgeful. Nobody can
possibly tell what it will change to when the
big canal is completed. II may become q
lively little city, and 1t may fall asleep COM
mercaly and stay SO. Consequently north
ern capitalists do not put money into build
ings or anything else there"

reason he returned to Baltimore without in
