The Fishing Schooner Adams is Cap
 tured While in Canadian Waters.

DIGBY, N S., May 7.-On Wednesday morning the Gloucester fishing schooner Da- vid J. Adams, Allen Kinney master, and an other United States schooner entered Digby basin for bait. The second schooner obtained sixteen barrels and departed. The Adams crossed the basin and anchored about five miles above Digby. The customs officer here immediately telegraphed the facts to Com modore Scott of the Dominion steamer Lans- downe. The latter arrived off Digby at mid night, sent an officer aboard the Adams and about dayhreak this morning ordered her to leave. The Adams attempted to obey, but was becalmed and was carried upon the beach in St. Georges Straits near the Bay of Fun da. Meanwhile the Lansdowne's officers landed at Digby and learned that the Adams had been buying bait. The Lansdowne pulled the schooner off the beach and brought her back Commodore Scott and Captain Dakin of the Lansdowne, the To- cal customs officer and the commander of fisheries for Digby held a consultation as to whether or not the Adams had infringed the treaty of 1918 and decided that there was sufficient proof to authorize her seizure. They accordingly placed 8 prize crew aboard and sent the vessel to St. John under convoy of the Lansdowne, to which the thirteen mem beIs of the Adams crew were transferred. Several of the men belong in Campobello, N. B. Captain Kinney is about twenty-five years old and is said to be imprudently dar- ing. He says that J. Lewis, the owner, is poor cripple who depends upon the Adams for support. The schooner is of ITO tons and eighteen years old. This is the first American fishing vessel that has been seized by the Dominion authorities.

RUss1A,s SCHEME CoNQUEs1


 The Turn in Greefan Affairs Highly Pleasing to the Powers at St. Peters burg.
 LONDON, May From the tenor of pri- vate advices received here it is evident that Russia is extremely well pleased by the turn which Grecian affairs are taking. It is stated that Russia's steady strengthening of her hold upon Central Asia to the north of Af- ghanistan is to be more rapidly carried out from the moment that hostilities between Turkey and Greece begin to occupy the full attention of the anxious and jealous powers. This is the most favorable season for road making and military transportation in that region, and with the British Indian army s energies entirely absorbed in putting down the rebellion in Burmah there will be nothing to hinder the pushing forward of Russia's s ambitious schemes at the highest possl ble speed. Lord Duferin's recent application to the home government for re1nforcem ents to the Indian contingent is said to have been accompanied by an urgent appeal for more vigorous policy in preparation for the 1nevlt- able conflict between Russia and England, which is to settle the future possession of India. Lord Dufferin's appeal was made not much in his official capacity in the character of a diplomatic servant of the crown, ana ne IS salu to nave 1uIIlnateo tnaI he should refuse to much longer retain an office which placed him in the false light before the world of seeming to assent to policy which must end in England's los ing the most important faction of her do minion. The communication is understood to have made 8 great impression on NIT. Gladstone for more than one reason, for aside from the obvious correctness of Lord Dufferin's position on the question it would be extremely embarrassing for the govern ment to have so popular diplomat as the viceroy assume from purely patriotic mo- tives the part of an opponent of the govern mi

THE CONDITION OF TRADE
mueh Less Favorable Owing to tn
 Vahnr

1 much Less Favorable Owing to the Labor Troubles.
 NEW YORK, May Especial telegrams to Bradstreet's indicate that the general trade situation is less favorable than a week ago.
 This is due mainly to the partial paralysis of
 business at Chicago as well as to the disturb ed industrial situation at Milwaukee, Cincin-
 nati and elsewhere. At Chicago no business of 8 wholesale character worth mentioning
 has been done. The mail orders received
 have been hung up and merchants generally
 are awaiting the settlement of the labor trou-
 bles. A noteworthy incident is the deter
 imitation of Chicago metal furniture workers
 and lumber yard employers to shut down rather than accede to what they consider an unjust demand. A similar spirit is dis played at Louisville. The movement of mer- chandise ct leading cities east and west has been checked by the industrial troubles. Bradstreet's telegraphic inquiries indicate that three hundred and twenty-five thousand men have taken part in the short hour move ment; that one hundred and fifty thousand have struck and that one hundred and fifty thousand have received concessions without having to strike. Some thirty-five thousand have gained their ends by striking. It is likely that the apparent ready compliance with the eight or nine hour demand may be checked by the attitude of the western en- ployers- The outlook for an early or general clearing away of industrial disturbances is not bright. The domestic money markets are dull and easy with loan rates unchanged The winter wheat plant continues in excel lent condition

FORTY-NINTH CONGRESS-.
WASHINGTON, May 7, 1886.

WASHINGTON, May 7, 1886.
 HoUsE.-The House went into committee on the private calendar A bill to pay F. W. Haldeman S200 occasioned considerable discussion. The re- port accompanying it states that during the war Haldeman, then boy of twelve years, desired to join an Ohio regiment, but refused a muster on account of his age and size. He however, pur- chased uniform and served in the regiment year. acting as bugler and performing scout duty. He is said to have performed gallant service MT: Bragg, of Wisconsin, in sarcastic speech opposed the bill. He ridiculed the idea of boy too young to be mustered in fulfilling scout duty ana doinf5 gallant SC: vice. The great patriotism when had been displayed by the 6oy seemed to have oozed away and he had become @ beggar asking money from he government.
 MT. Weaver, of Iowa, admitted that war pictures were very deceptive, but more deceptive than the picture of the dead drummer boy was that Wnlcn depicted an officer with epaulettes leading the charge sword in hand singing out Come on, men! If there was humbug in American military hs- tory it that portion which represented the com missioned officer leading the charge on the enany 5 works. as a rule they were where ther orders ana the rules of w required them to be = in a safe place ill the rear while the private soldier did the fighting, shooting and dying.

Anarchists Spreading their Circulars.
 PrrTsBURG, May 7.-Considerable excite ment was caused in West End, Pittsburg, and the lower wards of Alleghany City last night by the appearance of a number of strangers who hurriedly passed from house to house and street to street placing circulars
 in every doorway and handing them to pass ers-by. Investigation showed the contents
 of the circulars to be identical with those distributed by the anarchists in Chicago and
 Cleveland. The police were notified and
 officers in citizens clothing sent to arrest the
 distributors. who are described as hard
 looking set of men. They had ceased their labors previous to the officers appearance and could not be found. Similar circulars concealed inside of Chicago anarchist paper to the number of several hundred have been received at the Pittsburg pestofice for dis tribution. The circulars concealed inside the papers of which they are no part are contraband to the postal laws. Postmaster Lsrkiu has detained the same awaiting in- structions from Washington.
