REPORTED RUSSIAN AID

ISTAN.
The Attitude Of Germany
Doubtful.

LONDON, May Sth,-Noon.
Rumors are current in Paris Of the
steady and continued Russian advance
in Afghanistan; butt is impossible to
trace them TO any Authentic source.
They have probably originated from
news of the Russian occupation Of the
PeHideh. The official news agency in
Paris, which issupposed to represent
the views of the FIeuclf Cabinet, pub
fishes London dispatch q fling On
the fact that throughout the dispute
Germany has given no intinlation of
her attitude, she intends to assume re-
garding the controversy. The dispatch
says that the German ambassador in
London still holds as pessimistic view
of the situation as when everything
looked desperate; that English officials
still fear that Germany is unfavorabIy
disposed towards England and is not
anxious to see peace.
The Times continues to nrge the
Government to persuade the Ameer to
allow the presence of an English garri-
son at Herat. The announcement in st.
Petersburg of an official messenger is ex-
pected to have reassuring effect, as
being the first intimation by Russia that
she will send a commission. The cost of
the Russian Railway from Askadbad to
Nerve is estimated to reach 10000
roubles per yerst- exclusive of rails or
rolling stock.

FEDERAL COURT.
The session continues. The Grand
Jury has been discharged. 1t is not
known when the business before it will
close. Much remains to be done, but
funds are low. Advices from Washing
ton City are hourly looked for which
will determine the course of the court.
Since the opening of the court 130 bills
and infermations have been filed. Thirty
six defendants are now in Jail awaiting
sentence for convictions, mostly for
breaches of the revenue law in one form
or another. r
The Highlands cases will be called up
during this afternoon. These involve
two separate indictments, one for con-
spiracy, one for obstructing officers. Six
defendants are involved in one case and
seven in the other. Messrs. Bowman of
Mitchell, Cash of Pennsylvania, and
Stuart of Jackson are counsel for the de-
PENDANTS in both cases.

A GOOD NATgRED CoNFIIcT. ~
Two or three parties who had business
with the Federal Court now in session
here, or rather with whom the court had
business, unluckily fell into the clutches
of our municipal authorities and were
locked up. When the court wanted the
aforesaid individuals the officers reques-
ted the loan of them from Mayor Aston.
Our worthy mayor said he did not wish
to bring about conflict of authority
between the two courts. nor did he wish
the Federal Court authorities to think
they possessed any higher powers than
did the court over which he presided,
BIZ. he offered compromise ofthe ques-
tion: the parties were due certain fines,
and if the officials of the court would pay
the same he would gladly surrender them
to the other court. The matter was fin
ally amicably adjusted by a loan being
effected, and no further conflicts antici-
pated Peace reigns in Panama and
doubtless soon will in Afghanistan
