WINNIPEG, March 25.-The sensation
caused by the Riel rebellion is still una
bated and increasing in intensity. The
constant parading of the streets by the
militia to-day served to keep the people on
the qui viVe and the excitement eliminated
tonight when a detachment Of the Nineteen
rifles, numbering over one hundred, lett oy
special train for the West. dispatch was
received from Gen. Middleton tonight to the
effect that ne will be here FRIDAY morning
His orders are that the remainder OF the
rifles and field battery be in readiness to
proceed west when he arrives. Word has
lust come that Col. Irvine's detachment of
mounted police are safely camped on
the North Saskatchewan. They crossed
the South Saskatchewan at the
telegraph crossing, while the half-breeds
were waiting for them at Gabriefs, good
many miles further down. Irvine will now
be able to join Crozier and form a detachment
of police some two hundred strong. The
rebels still control Prince Albert. The tele-
graph wires are cut off and all communities
lion with Winnipeg broken. They have also
seized the mails from Prince Albert and
Carlton and prevent the messengers from
coming through. There is no word Of any
collision with the police having taken place,
though it is reported that the rebels are still
threatening Fort Carlton. Various rumors
were current today that the Indians along
the line Of the Canadian Pacific were becom-
ing restive, but they have as yet INDUCED in
no worse demonstration than war dances.

SUAKM, March 25.-Gen Graham has
moved the headquarters Of his camp two
miles nearer to Tamai. A convoy of Indian
troops went this morning to McNeill's zereba
on the Tamai road. This convoy acted as
an escort for the balloon corps. Arriving at
the zereba they Immediately set to work TAX
ing observations. A captive balloon was
SENT UP FROM THE zEREBA
and remained up several hours. The OBJ
servers descended with information concern
ing the positions and movements of Osman
Digma's men. The mornings work shows
the balloon corps to be invaluable in work,
assisting Graham to make the forward move
ments. The grenadier guards have gone to
Hasheen to escort the Surrey regiment back
to Suakim.
The British camps were not disturbed last
night. Skirmishers have been sent out on
the way to Tamai. The general advance
which was to have been made Sunday last it
is now thought will take place tomorrow.
Gen. Graham telegraphed the government
that the guards and marines showed great
steadiness under fire during the harrassing
engagements of yesterday. The cavalry also
behaved well.

Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March 25.-The sickness
and absence of the first assistant postmaster
general, Hay, will probably cause q change
in the plan first contem plated of not making
the appointment of q second assistant until
May. Mr.. Cleveland is considering the adj
visibility OF sending in the nomination this
week and letting the senate pass upon it.
That body had srranged to adjourn Wednes-
day, but upon an intim alton from the White
house that 1t was desirable to have the
confirming power at hand little longer, the
last day Of the extra session was changed to
Saturday. This was done on the understanding
that Mr.. Cleveland will have list to submit
daily. The selection of Edward c. Fowler to
act as first assistant in Mr.. Hays absence is
an illustration of the ladder-like develop
ment Of which the postoffice department ser
vice is susceptible. Mr.. Fowler entered the
department sixteen years ago at salary of
81 200, was at different times promoted and
finally by selection and at the request of his
companion EN- ployes, vas chosen principal
clerk of the appointment division. At various
periods he has acted as chief clerk OF the first
assistant when the veteran Mr.. Mari was
absent or incapacitated by illness. His
designation at present to the indefinite occu-
panY Of the frst assistant position shows what
may be expected under ideal civilservice re-
form.

The Wrecked Propellers.

CHICAGO, March 25.-Capt. Prndiville of
the propeller Michigan, which was crushed in
the ice and foundered in Lake Michigan last
Thursday, the crew having gone on board Of
tug in the ice near by and thence making
their way over the ice to Holland, Mich, last
Sunday, arrived here to-day. He says the
steamer was well down in the water when the
squeeze came which crushed her. He says
the tug Arctic, to which they escaped and on
which several men still remain, is perfectly
safe, lying on top of the ice so that she can
not be gripped, and that when thaw comes
she will settle easily into the water. Capt.
Prindiville says he never before saw so
much ice in the lake. For sixty miles south
of the straits of Mackinaw the Ice is solid
entirely across and Of an average thickness
of thirty inches. He believes it will be i'm
possible for vessels to get through the straits
to Buffalo before June l. In regard to the
propeller Wisconsin, which Is a twin of the
lost vessel Michigan, Prndiville said that
Capt. McGregor, her commander, was q
skillful and brave seaman, and If any man
could rescue her he could. She was more
heavily loaded than the Michigan, deeper in
the water, and therefore more subject to
grip of ice. 1t might be she had already
suffered the same fate as the Michigan. The
Wisconsin has not been heard from for some
time and vessel men here express grave
fears for her safety and that OF her crew.

for and members of the government and
head officials were hourly asked for the
latest information. The fact that Maj Gen.
Middleton was dispatched to the scene Of the
conflict on briefest notice and st time when
his arrangements were complete for visiting
Quebec on departmental business, shows
that Notwithstanding what the representa-
tives of the cabinet avow they view the mat
ter with the greatest alarm. On inquiring
of the government officials to-day 1t was
learned that further details of the insurrec-
ton had been received. A telegram from
Humboldt is to the effect that
nothing definite can be OBJ
tanned from the vicinity of Carlton.
Col Irvine should have arrived from Duck
Lake at Carlton this afternoon at the latest.
1t is supposed that his delay is caused through
being opposedby Indians aud having to fight
his way. The government do not expect to
hear anything definite from him until to-mor
row. They suppose he will manage to get to
Carlton and join Maj. Crozier tonight. Before
obtaining an answer from him, messenger
will have to drive about ninety miles to
Hum boldt, owing to the wires being cut. A
meeting of the cabinet was held this after
noon aud the whole question was discussed.
Should an exigency arise to
justify it, member of the cabinet will
assume the control of the operations of the
military forces in the Northwest which it may
be found necessary to employ to extinguish
the half-breed element. 1t is understood
that the government will send out a COM
mission at once to adjust the half-breed
claims in the disaffected district

WASHINGTON, March 25.-Messrs. Black,
Freeman and George, the Milwaukee pill
grims, are still here. They were introduced
to the president to-day, but insist that Wis
consin politics were not talked of. They
were with the postmaster general to-day
They insist that they want nothing for them
selves and are not doing anything about the
offices.
"If they want any offices,'' said the post
master general to your correspondent, ''they
have not told me about it. On the contrary,
they say they want nothing.' Mr.. Black
said the same thing to your correspondent
at the Ebbitt house this morning.
''We are here simply for little trip" he
said, land positively want uothing. We
were to visit New York on business and
thought we would come this wav and see how
Washington looked under Democratic rule,
and how the new administration is starting
off,
"And what do you think of it 80 far as you
have seen?'

himself man OF excellent judgment, and
that he will make one of the very best presi-
dents we ever had"

The president to-day appointed. at the rec
ommendation,of Col.V Villas, George W. Cate, who
was amember of the Forty-fourth congress,
as postmaster at Stevens Point with a salary
of 81, 500. He will probably send in one or
two others tomorrow. Indications seem to
point to Habheyer as his selection for the
Watertown office. Samuel Klauber and
family of Madison are here on pleasure
trip.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-The managers
of the New Orleans exposition had consider
able trouble in obtaining from congress
additional aid for the exposition on account
of the accumulation of debts to persons
residing in other states, the payment of
which, it was alleged, the managers were
disposed to defer in favor of home creditors.
1t is certain that the house appropria-
ton committee would never have consented
to give the exposition a dollar more if it had
not been agreed and incorporated in the law
that the exposition managers must file a
statement of the manner in which the
$1,000, 600 appropriation had been expended
with the accompanying vouchers, and that

CHICAGO, March 25.-Wm. A. Pinkerton,
superintendent of Pinkerton's detective
agency, will leave for Boston, Mass, in a
day or two, intending to bring back with
him a prisoner who has had brief
but very brilliant career as a
crook. This mans criminal history,
so far as known by detectives, commenced
about four years ago, on the Pacific coast.
After operating successfully in San Francisco
and other cities of the Pacific coast, he ap-
peared in st. Paul, where in May, 1884, he
operated his swindliug game on eight differ
ent jewelry houses of that city. Early last
week the swindler turned up in
Boston and succeeded in swndliug
several jewelry dealers before he
was found out. he had rented an Office in
Boston in the business center and called it

wrote to the house in Worcester. Immedi-

Le was an impostor. This was done
and the gentlemanly swindler was put under
lock and key. The man, whose real name is
Frank Lsnders, is regarded as one of the
most dangerous rogues in the country and
his capture is hailed with delight. II has
been arranged that Landers shall be
held on charges against him in
Boston, but will be turned over to
PiLkertous on the St. Paul charge. The fell
low had no com panions, did not associate
with thieves and was not known in police

the scheme which he practiced so success
fully, and was shrewd enough to take no

LONDON, March 25.-The Pail Mall Gazette
this afternoon publishes an interview with
Lowell in reference to the appointment of
Phelps as his successor. Lowell said that
President Cleveland was the last man who
would make an inconsiderate appointment,
especially to such high office as that of
minister to the court of st. James. Minister
Lowell said ''Phelps is gentleman Of high
character and marked independence, is most
agreeable in his manners and has fine social
qualities. A change was unavoidable owing
to change of the party in power. Both
countries are to be congratulated on Cleve-
lands wisdom, as shown in the selection of
Mr.. Phelps as my successor"

ST. LOUIS CATHOLIC CHURCH CONSUMED.
An hour later st. Louis Roman Catholic
church. in the rear of Music hall, took fire
and it was soon evident that the magnificent
edifce was doomed. The street between
Music hall and the church was very narrow,
rendering it impossible for the fire depart
ment to do effective work. Geo. Smith and
Jos. Green ascended ladders in front of the
church for the purpose of assisting the firemen
in directing the work. The building burned
rapidly and the firemen and Smith hastily
left the roof, which they had reached, but for
some reason Green remained and
FRANTICALLY RUSHED TO THE CUPoLA,
climbing it in full view of thousands of spec
tators. He clambere to the lightning rod,
but returned and rushed to the body of the
roof which was now burning fercely.
He rushed to a corner of the building and,
who had q tarpaulin stretched for him to

hung by his hands for fully ten minutes An
attempt was made to reach him with ladder,
but it was unsuccessful, owing to
A NETWORK OF TELEGRAPH WIRES
surrounding the building. At this
time the entire front of .he
church was enveloped in flames.
When the smoke cleared away he was seen
still clinging to the edge of the roof. Then
he lunged forward, let go his hold and fell.
He struck on
HIS HEAD AND WAS INSTANTLY KILLED.
At 80 o'clock the tower of Music hall fell
in and a few minutes after the front
walls fell into the street. The south
wall, which was unusually strongly
built, as it was within ten feet of large
private dwelling, remains intact. The fire
was finally confined to Music hall and the
church. The Music hall was completed in
1888. having been about year in
course of construction. st. Louis church
was the oldest Roman Catholic
church in the city. Music hall will be re-
membered as the place Of holding the grand
