GLADSTONE AND THE QUEEN CONFER.
The Cabinet Meet to Consider the Crisis
Preeipitated by the Tales Of
War.
THE MARKETS FOREIGN NOTES.

LoNpoy, March l2.-The Cabinet met at
noon. The unusually early hour at once
attracted attention, and reports quickly
spread that the crisis was being considered.
The interest in the meeting was soon intense.
This WAS warranted BY several incidents
which preceded and attended the council.
Immediately before .he council Col George
a. Maude, EquerrY in Chief to the Queen
called upon Mr.. Gladstone and had long
interview. Among the rumors which
this gave rise to was one to III, effect
that Her Majesty had been advised that the
Indian situation was grave and required
vigorous and decisive action, and that the
Queen rather urgently insisted on her Gov.
ernment doing something. This aud SINH.
lar stories attracted large crowd TO Down.
ing street, and before the Cabinet was long
in session the Prime Minister'S official resi.
dence was surrounded by large crowd.
Up to three o'clock it is not publicly
known what the Ministers have done. Ii ID
reported they decided TO address q serious
representation to the Russian government
that, if through any Russian advance in
Afghanistan, a conflict results with the
Ameers troops, Russia must accept thu
consequences, as England is bound to guard
Afghan territory.
Lord Harrington, British Minister Of War.
to day conferred with Lieutenant General
Alison and other military authorities on
Oriental affairs, including several Indian
military officials, concerning England con-
dition for a conflict in Asia.
The Evening News states it learned that
remonstrances from the highest quarters
have been addressed to the Cxar in the In
terett Of peace, and have met with such
chilling response that slight hopes arc nov
entertained that hostiGties can be averted.

principal in the scheme to detraud Charles
Francis Adams in Boston in the spring Of

self J. D. Morrison, and representing him
self to be a son Of q prominent Southerner,
met Mr. Adams and steered him 10 noto-
rious gambling house on Boylston street,
where they succeeded in interesting him in
game to the extent of $l7,500, for which
they received his check on the Merchants
Bank. 1t was presented BY Norton, but
the cashier suspected crookedness and
didnt honor il. 1t was then placed in
lawyers hands for collection, the Crooks"
thinking that Adams family would rather
pay up Than be exposed. Fitzgerald was
captured when starting for New York and
sent to States Prison for five years, but
Norton escaped. Before and after that

Determined to Defeat Phil. Thompson. Of
kentucky.
WASHINGTON, March l2.-Mr. Randall
makes himself felt. He is determined that
Phil Thompson, Of Kentucky, shall not be
the Commissioner Of Internal Revenue, and
though Thompson has the strongest backing
for the place ever man had, it looks as if
he were going to be defeated. The Speaker
of the House, the two kentucky Senators,
and nearly all the Democrats in the House
are importuning the President and Secretary
Manning to make the appointment and an
immense petition signed by New York WINS
Ky men was sent n to Manning to-day.
Randall is the only opposition. be has told
Manning in a prophetic way that he had
better not give that position to kentucky,
and his word has gone further than the de-
mands OF all Congress. Mr.. Cleveland IS
said to favor the appointment of Thompson,
but Randall SAYS Kentucky shall not have
the place, and Manning tells the Kentuck-
ians that he don't think the appointment
will be made. Ii the appointment is not
made it will show the determination OF the
administration to snub what is known as
the Carlisle element in the House, the
strongest in the party, and will make a bad
feeling which will greatly embarrass Cleve''
land # he can be affected at all By bitter
opposSion.

He succeeded in q great measure Now if
there was no promotion in sight, would be-

little what is the business, from managing
q great trunk line Of railway down to run

good that if one wants 6rst-class men to DO
