HAZEN COURT MARTIAL.
The general court martial convened for
the trial of General Hazen, chief signal Off
Ger of the army, in this city this morning,
Gen. Hancock presiding. The counsel for
Gen. Hazen challenged Brigader General
MacFrely as IA member of the court, on the
ground of unfriendly relations between
them, growing out of his (Hazen's) criticisms
of the subsistence department of the army.
of which Gen. MacFreely is the head, when
he (IIazen) was endeavoring 10 abolish the
system OF post leadership in the army. The
court sustained the challenge, and the ac-
cused waived the right to further challenges.
Gen. Hazen was then arraigned, and through
his counsel demurred to the specification to
the charges alleging that he criticised and
impugned the propriety of the action
of the secretary OF war in refusing
to send sealing steamer a
to the Greeley party after the failure of the
Proteus expedition in the fall of 1888. The
court overruled the demurrer and the ac-
eused pleaded mot gully" to the charge
and several specifications. lie desired,
however, to make certain admissions con-
corning the actions charged against him,
and pending the preparations of these nd
missions the court adjourned.
"BAcKBoNE" PATENTS.
In accordance with Secretary Teler's
order dated March Sd, the commissioner of
the general land office issued three patents
to the New Orleans Pacific railway com
pany for &c., S7 acres of land known as the
Backbone grant and they were delivered
to VIM. E. Barnum BY direction of Judge
Dillon, attorney for the railroad company.
Although Secretary Teller has issued patents
for $685. acres of land the company under
its grant claimed 100000 acres. Yesterday
Secretary Lamar issued the following order
to the commissioner of the land office: March
10th, 'S5.-You are hereby directed to sus-
pend all proceedings relative to patenting
lands to the New Orleans Pacific railroad
until further notice.
[Signed. L. @ G. LAMAR.
In addition to the lands already patente d
the New Orleans Pacific Railroad company
has a list covering 336,70 acres, which, IN
der this last order, cannot be patented unit
the secretary takes further action.

England.


IoSpoY, March ll.-Financial circles ar
excited over official reports received this aft
ernoon. confirming the report published il
{ the Times. to the effect that the Russia,
troops had advanced further into the AT
CHAN territory. The Russian government
admits that such movement has taker
place, but asserts that If was only intended
for the purpose Of seeking more suitable
position in case of wa. with Afghanis.an. II
is generally believed that both the Afghan.
and Russians are hurrying forward, aud q
collision is imminent.
The government intends TO build fifty
stern-wheel steamers for the Nile.
A grant Of 100000 pounds has been made
by the government to the family of Gen.
Gordon, to be paid over to trustees, who
will use it for the benefit of the family, ac-
cording to Gordon's last wishes, in such u
WY as the queer may direct.
War rumors produced an excitement on
tho stock exchange which amounted. during
the afternoon, to a state of semi-panic.
Officials cfthe Russian embassy deny that
any preparations for war are being made by
Russia on the Afghan frontier. There is
only tie usual number of troops in Southern
Turki-tan, and no movement is being made
toward sending more there.
i dispatch from Suakim SAYS the Indian
native soldiers Of the Skis regiment were
in their first engagement on Egyptian soil
yesterday. 4 party Of osman Digma's Arabs
made an attack on one of the British out
posts in the neighborhood of Suakim and
the Siilhs were sent out in the open field to
repel the attack. They were
spiendidy handled and showed
admirable GOODNESS and steadiness.
The skirrnish was hot while it lasted, but the
Arabs were soon repulsed, and many of
their dead were left upon the field The
casualties among the Indian troops were
few and unimportant. The Arabs became
panic stricken when they saw the swarthy
hpGammedans from India facing them ia
true British style, and delivering their fire
atth such precision as 10 make almost every
sa0t tell.
The Standard afiirms that General Tums-
den has occupied Hobet Pass, and expresses
the belief that it is only timely movement
TO prevent the Russians from occupying it,
large quantities of p DIVISIONS being stored at
lierat
Recruiting is in active pro gress in India TO
supply Ibe reserves and make up for the
drain Of the reserve force drafted for active
service. The native press is unanimously
chtnorons for war with Russia.
The Telegraph states that the English gov
ernment has rejected the offer Of the United
States Ia negotiate Il convention with the
British West Indies.

STILL HUNT.

While the Republicans are publishing

Gratis are conducting a "still hunt" cam

their committee and for which they are in
debted to US for publication, every member
has constituted himself into committee OF
one and is putting in a word where il will
do the most good. In consequence of the
passage ofthe prohibitory act, they imagine
they have soft snap. They all are loud
in their Genunciation of the law, but it suits
them to n 7, as that is the only board they
have to stand on. We spprehend, however,

MONTREAL, March ia story is being
circulated in the city relative to miracle
which is said to have taken place in Acton
vale some days ago. A man while threshing
grain swore horribly, and on some of the
bystanders approaching him. he replied: .'If
there is a God, let him punish me-" He was
at once seized with paralysis, and fixed in
the position in which be stood. Not only
so, but he became rooted TO the ground and
could not be removed. The neighbors had
70 cover him with rugs to prevent his being
frozen, and although they offered him food
he could not take it. Manager Fabre has
gone t. the place, presumably to try and
rt-tnre him.
