washington News Notes.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 81. Secretary
Chandler directed the resumption of work
at the navy yards and stations which was
suspended the first Of January on account
of the failure of congress to provide for
its continuance.
Secretary Lincoln instructed Brig.
Gen. Augur to turn over to civil authori-
ties for prosecution such leaders among
the Oklahoma Boomers as violated sec
ton 2, 140, Of the revised statutes relating
to the subject in dispute.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3l.-The recon-
mendation by the house committee on
military affairs for an appropriation for
the creation Of the office of assistant chief
signal officer has been withdrawn on the
ground that it is new legislation. The
committee had previously decided not to
recommend new Legislation of any char
acter.
The Star says it has been learned at
the war department that the findings in
the Swain court martial have not been
received by the secretary of war. 1t was
further learned from unquestioned au-
thority hat up to this morning the court
had not even voted upon the case. It was
thought, however, that the duties Of the
court would be completed to-day and the
findings submitted.
The same paper has the following:
Mr.. Randall has not changed his views
concerning the appropriation for the
navy since his visit to Mr.. Cleveland.
The bill will come up for consideration
next week, and he will exert himself to
defeat the proposition to provide for a
new navy at this time. There is a propo-
sirion under consideration now to give the
naval committee jurisdiction over the
naval bills hereafter. Mr.. Randall has
informed Mr.. Cox. chairman of the naval
committee, hat he would not be opposed
to such a proposition
Representative Matchle., chairman Of
the house committee on reform in the civil
service. has been instructed by his com
mittee to make an adverse report on the
bill to prohibit the removal of any honor
ably discharged Union soldier, sailor, ma
rine, widow or dependent relative Of an,
deceased Union soldier, sailor or marine
from any office in the civil service of th'
United States, except for a specific
cause. The committee in its report de
olares that the rule would bind the hand
of the executive and prevent him from
administering the laws properly.

LONDON, Jan. 3l.-The Crohes re-
Gently arrested in the parishes Of Klmair
and Glendale, in the Isle of Skye. on a
charge of resisting the sheriff in the dis
charge Of his duties, arrived at Portico
strongly guarded by a hundred policemen
and a number of marines. A large crowd
of sympathizing friends of the prisoners
gathered at the landing. At the time it
looked as if they would attempt to rescue
them. From the landing to the court
house the crowd kept up a series of yells
and several times made threatening de-
monstrations. They were. however, held
at bay by the guards. Large congrega-
tons of people in the vicinity were pro-

LONDON. Jan. 3l.-Mahdi's men are
SO well situated at Metemneh that it
has been deemed advisable to await rein

take Metemneh by storm. The action Of
the troops after that will largely depend
upon Gen. Gordon 1t is said that Cor

Earle's army will probably meet with a
at Abu Hamed, where Mahdi has

THEY MET IN DEATH.
The Melancholy Ending ofa Wanderers
Return to His Native Place.

From the N. Y. Sun
81 received such a nervous shock in
the little town of Aylmer, Canada, ON
Saturday last" said a travelling sales
man Of a New York grocery house,
Yesterday, that l was unable to continue
my trip, and was obliged to return home.
/ met on the train from Ottawa a young
man who had attracted my attention BY
the apparent delight with which he gazed
out Of the car windows, where there was
very little in the prospect to warrant the
exhibition Of any such emotion. finally
opened a conversation with him. and
learned hat his named was Hale, and that
he was on his way to Aylmer, where his only
living relatives, an uncle and an aunt, resid-
ed, and where he had spent his childhood
days. He had goneaway when he was only
IL years Of age, and had been a sailor oil
the Atlantic since he was Is. This was
the first time he had revisited his old
home. He was so impatient to reach his
destination that he could barely sit still.
"'They know I'm coming he said,
and 1 guess they'll be glad to see me. l

these years. Uncle Lew will be at the
train to meet me, so they wrote, but he'll

and nephew. The uncle was not there,
however, and there was a look of disa p
pointment on the strangers face as he
started down the railroad track in the di-
rection of his uncIe's house.
81 called on one Of my customers, and
fifteen minutes later walked by the rail
road depot again 10 reach the store of an
other. l saw a crowd on the platfrom,
and iudred from its excited movements
that something unusual had occurred. l
walked to the spot, and saw the crushed
and bleeding bodies Of two men on the
platform. In the ghastly face of one l
recognized that of my fellow passenger,
and l turned away, faint and trembling.
merely noticed that the other dead body
was that of an old man, who, / learned
later. was the uncle the young man ex-
pected to meet at the depot
