The tone of the European dispatches is de-
cldediy more pacific, and the war feeling in
England is s'Ib>iding. 1t now looks as if the
question of the responsibility for the occupa-
ton of Penjdeh would be submitted TO arbitra-
ton, according to proposals made by Russia
In this move, as during the entire diplomatic
negotiations, the British ministry has been
oVermatched and outwitted by the skill and
nnesse of the willy Russians. The boundary
line of Afghanistan which was proposed by NJ.
Lessar is to be accepted by England, and thus
Russia gains what she has insisted upon and
what was TO be settled by the mixed boundary
commission. Russia has steadfastIy supported
Gen. komarof in his movements and has
accepted his report of the Pendideh affair with
out question. Indeed, she has already declined
to enter into a further discussion of that action
But now, as is stated in the dispatch "Gen-
komarof has expressed his willingness to have
his conduct i'll the Penjdeh affair reviewed by
the king of Denmark" This Mr. Gladstone
accepts as desire for arbitration, and he jumps
al the possible escape from a war which he does
not want There seems every likelihood at
present that war Will be a verted for a while at
least between the two great nations
-oe ~
Much mas been said In regard to our neutrality
obligations in the event that war is declared he
tween England and Russia. The agreement
between the United states and Russia made in
1854, and which is now binding, is as follows:
l. That free ships make free goods-that is to
say, that the effects of goods belonging to su b.
lects or citizens of power or state at war are
nee from capture and confiscation when found
on board OF neutral vessels. with the exception

Burglars Starting Ou9 on a Fall cam

 The burglars who have apparently started out on their fall campaign have got as far as Bridgeport in their eastern raid and may be looked fo1 in this city at any time While the citizens are fairly we'll protected by an efficient police force, yet it would be well for those living on the outskirts, where the po- lice, owing to the length of their beats, are seldom seen, to be prepared to give the visit ing burgla1ious gentry warm reception should they make them visit.
 In Bridgeport on Sunday night burglars at tempted to enter Henry Wheeler's residence, corner of Park avenue and Park Place, but were frightened away by the screams of a servant girl.
 At 2:15 o'clock yesterday morning bur gIar made his entrance into the lower story of the Seaview Hotel, Bridgeport, kept by George Humston at Seaside Park by prying open one of the windows with a chisel or jimmy. He then ascended to the bedroom of Mir. Humiston, entered the room, which was unlocked. and was just reaching forward to take MT. Humiston's trousers from a chair when Mrs Humiston awoke. deserted the intruder, screamed and aroused her husband He grasped his revolver, and while the burglar was backing out of the room, pistol in hand and covering the gen. tleman, fired two shots, neither eff which, however, took effect, and the fellow made his escape without securing anything.

A0mE AGAIN.

MT. M. Steinert Returns From His
 European Trip-He Rrings Home a
 $3,50O Violin.
 Many friends greeted MT. M. Steinert at his place of business on Chapel street yester- day on his return from Germany after five months absence. Mr. Steinert and wife and daughter Molie arrived in New York on Saturday on the steamer Elder. The pas sage home was a very tempestuous one and MT. Steinert suffered from sickness during most of the trip. In the storm the chief carpenter was killed by wave that broke over the ship. One of the fremen became crazy from overwork and jumped overheard, while one of the stewards went crazy from a similar cause, was put in a straight jacket and found dead shortly after.
 This was Mr Steinert's first visit to Ger many in thirty-two years. While in Cologne, where his brother, who is retired merchant resides,
 he met Professor D. Cady Eaton of this city.
 While in Berlin he saw Judge Sanford drive
 by, but was not quick enough to attract his
 honor's attention. While passing through
 the streets of Berlin one day hs was hailed by Paul Roessler, who With his son was pass ing. As matter of course the accidental
 meeting was much enjoyed by both parties. MT. Steinert also visited Strasburg, Brussels, Paris, Versailles, Nance, Frankfort-on-the Main, Wurtzburg, Munich, Brunswick and
 many other places of more or less note. In all of these places MT. Steinert pass ed considerable time in visiting historic buildings, art galleries and musical establishments, the latter receiving their full share of the professor s attention. One of the purchases made by Mr. Steinert while abroad was a Stradivarius violin worth $3, 800, made in 1732, of which
 mention has heretofore been made in our col umns. These instruments are exceedingly rare, there being only two three in this country. Those in Europe are in the hands of nobility and noted artists.
 On MT. Steinert's arrival at his home in this city about 80 o'clock Sunday morning he found about thi1Sy lady and gentlemen friends in waiting to extend to him, his Wife and daughter cordial welcome. A fine banquet was in waiting for them which was heartily enjoyed by all

An Impressive Funeral

Yesterday afternoon at the same hour that four days ago the soul of Miss Aida Van Schaick Harwood left it's mortal frame the Trinity church bell sorrowfally tolled for the service of the dead.
 The burial service of the Catholic church was read at the family residence on Temple street by Rev. Father McGiveney of the Thomaston Catholic church. He was for merly assistant pastor of St. Mary's church in this city. At all the masses in St. Mary's church Sunday prayers for the repose of the soul of Miss Harwood were requested by the pastor.
 After the service at the recto1y the re- mains were carried by the bearers to the church where the solemn Episcopal burial service was impressively read by the Rt. Rev Bishop Willia ms, assisted by the Rev. MT. Nichols and the Rev. MT. Andrews. The boy choristers rendered most beautifully the selections and sang the we'll known hymn "Art Thou Weary" The casket was covered with elegant floral tributes. The body re- mained within the church until midnight, when it was taken to Hampstead, Long Is- land, where the interment will take place to- day.
 The bearers were Messrs. Frank Lawrence of New York, Gary McHenry of Baltimore, Md, John V. L. Pruyn of Albany, N. Y.' Charles De Kay of New York, Frank B. Hill house, Colin NJ. Ingersoll, jr., Francis G. Ingersoll and w. P. Trowbridge of this city. That the bright young life just ended has been life full of goodness and sympathetic concern for the welfare of others was testi fled to yesterday by the many from all sta tions in life who attended the church to pay their last tribute of respect to the memory ol the deceased Though to-day all that is mortal will be hidden from sight, the memo " of her gracious, generous heart and sym her name to those who knew and felt the in huenca of her character.

 ATHENS, Oct. 19.-The war feeling here is very strong particularly among the soldiers who are clamo1ing to be led into battle az ainst the Turks. A great deal of this feel ing is due to inf1ammatory speeches which sev eral of the cabinet ministers delivered within the last few days

Troubles i'm Vermont over a Postmas-
 ter That VIII Not Resign His Posi-
 ton te Allow a Rumseller to Come
 i'm.
 MONTPELIER, Vt., Oct. 19.-There is in- tense excitement here over the postoffice squabble. The Republican incumbent is George W. Wing, whose term does not ex- pire for three years. The Democratic candi- dates are F. H. Bascom and N. A. Mead. Hiram Atkins, chairman of the Democratic State committee, backs Bascom. The latter is on trial second time for liquor selling. At his first trial Postmaster Wing defended him and secured disagreement. MT. Wing described to-day an interview between him self and MT. Atkins: s'He came into my office the other evening"" says Mir. Wing, "and said he wanted to talk on postoffice matters. After while he said he wanted to have this office settled before Congress meets, as after that it would be hard to get anything done. Then he plainly demanded my resignation to take effect January 1, or else he said he would have me removed. He offered me the alternative. He added that he had enough to cause my removal. I told MT. Atkins that no chairman of a State committee had made me postmaster. and I should not tender my resignation to him. said that did not recognize his right to demand it. As for any charge against me I know that the office is well managed and so far as poli- tics is concerned I have taken no active part other than to distribute a few tickets last election shall not resign, but if they want to remove me, all right"
 MT. Atkins has started for Washington to urge the removal of Wing and the appointment of Bascom. Petitions and remonstrances to- gesher with afidavits from leading Demo- crats have been forwarded to the President protesting against the appointment of Bas- com. The removal of Wing, whom the gov ernmsnt inspector acknowledges to be the most efficient paymaster in the State, is strongly opposed, but such opposition is lit tie compared to that shown to the appoint mept of Rascom.

PERHAPS A MURDER.

A Drunken Fathers Cruel Conduct
 Causes the Death of His Child.
 What now appears to be a case of murder is causing decided sensation in Branford and Coroner Mix is Investigating the case. Sunday morning the three weeks old son of John Lowell was found dead in its bed with it's head and body covered with bruises, and it is thought that while Lowell and his wife were fighting the child was killed. Mrs. Low ell says that her husband came home ugly drunk early Sunday morning, and after pull ing her out of bed and knocking her down he seized the child and threw it on the floor with such violence as to result in the child's death. Coroner Mix said last night that there was nothing further to add to the above facts He had not concluded his investiga tion, but would probably do 80 to-day.
