looked as if the train would be unable to come
through, SO close had the fires eaten their
way to the track, The cars were filled with
smoke. which troubled the passengers consid-
erably. At intervals the sky was lurid. Great
trees were ablaze to their topmost branches,
the fires cracking and jumping from point

the liveliest fears of being burned out. The
country is filled with dense clouds of smoke,

The Newark Children About Ready to Return

The Newark Children About Ready to Return
to Their New Jersey Home.
PARIS Dec 31.-When the Newark children
received their incubation, to-day, NJ. Pasteur
gave them, as New Years present, an order on
Partisan photographer for half dozen photo
graphs of each child. They at once ran to the
studio and sat for their pictures. The children
will receive their last inoculation tomorrow, and
will sail from Havre, Saturday, on the steamer
Canada, for New York.
Yesterday NJ. Pasteur breakfasted with Presi-
dent Grevy at the Elysee Palace. Despite the
political crisis the conversation turned upon hy-
drepho6ia and the unprecedented number of mad
dogs this year in France Austria and England.
The President of the Republic became very much
interested in the cases recently reported from
America, and asked H. Pasteur all sorts of ques-
tions about the Newark children.
Another remarkable proof of the efficacy Of
NJ. Pasteurs discovery is furnished by the case
of three children of Tourcoing, near the Belgian
frontier. All were bitten by the same dog, and
there was great discussion among the towns.
people whether to send the children to NJ Pas
teur. Finally compromise was reached. The
child that had been the most severely bitten was
sent to NJ. Pasteur. and the other two, who had
been bitten only slightly, remained at home.
The wounds of all three had been thoroughly
cauterized Immediately after the bites had been
inflicted The two children that staid at home
died of rabies last week, while the one which
was treated by NJ. Pasteur is alive and we'll.

ANNEXATION OF BURMAH.
The British Government Formally Takes
Possession Of the Country.

The British Government Formally Takes
Possession of the Country.
LONDON, Jan. 1.-The Queen to-day issued
proclamation formally taking possession of Bur
mah 1t will doubtless be regarded as mag
nifcent New Year gift to the British nation, and
it is certain to be cordially approved by vasS
majority of the Brtishers. Even the Radicals,
who opposed the war, but were lulled into par
tial acquiescence by the assurance that it was
rot to be war Of conquest, are now inclined to
admit that the permanent possession of the
country is the least of the evils which the
government had to choose from. British domi-
nation will immensely assist in pacifying the
turbulent tribes which form large proportion
of Burmah's heterogeneous population, and is,
perhaps, the only agency that is suf-
fciently powerful for this purpose. The
acquisition of the vast territory, which ex-
ceeds in area any other division of India,
and is more than twice as large as what is now
known as British Burmah, will provide new
fields for the surplus energies Of Anglo-Indians,
and plenty of lucrative posts for Lord Randolph
Churchill and Earl Dufferin to fill It is also ex-
pected to stimulate trade. both in England and
in India and probably assures princely incomes
to the magnates of the Burmah and Bombay
Trading Company, whose quarrel with King
Thebaw furnished the pretext for invasion. All
the foreign powers have formally consented to
the British absorption of Burmah, although it is
said that both France and Russia hesitated long
before giving their consent The former was
afraid Of preponderating English influence in
China, and Russia looks with disfavor upon any
extension of British aggrandizement in Asia
China is said to have been very cordial in vel
coming England as neighbor on her southwest
ern border. The friendly attitude which China
has all along maintained has already encouraged
certain promoters of railway enterprises to form
plans for Burmese railway construction com
pany. The proposed road would extend from
Bahmo, on the northeastern frontier of Bur-
nah, to Rangoon, Arakan, or some of the other
excellent seaports of British Burmah. The road
would be from 500 to 900 miles long, according
to the route selected. It would be costly un-
dertaking but the promoters say that. as it
would tap the rich Chinese province of Yunnan,
and open up all of central Burmah, it could be
made to pay.
The proclamation of annexation says that the
territories formerly governed by King Thebaw
will no longer be under his rule, but will become
part of the dominions OF the Queen of Great
Britain and Ireland and Empress of India, and
that the government of the country will be
administered during her Majestys pleasure by
officers appointed by the Viceroy of India

received further reinforcements and now COM
mands 1900 troops of all arms. Preparations
for the formation Of two divisions 30. 600 strong
in all, for carrying the war into the enemys
country, are being pushed forward.
Some misapprehension has arisen as to the
jurisdiction Of Moukhtar Pasha. the Turkish
commissioner to Egypt The Pasha's iustruc-
tions direct him to proceed with the reorganiza-
ton Of the Egyptian army. The measures
already initiated practically turn the
Egyptian army to Turkey. The British
officers in Egypt have interposed, with the
result that Sir Drummond Wolff has received
further instructions from the imperial govern
ment defining the duties of the British and
Turkish commissioners These duties are to in
vestgate the army, courts, finances, and internal
administration, and report the conclusions
arrived at, leaving the two governments free to
agree afterward on such measures as might be
deemed necessary Foreign intrigues at Carlo
Alexandria, and on the Nile have determined
the government to adopt strong military pol
icy internally as we'll as externally.

PlTTsBURG, Jan. 1.-The long strike of the
river coal miners is virtually over. The miners
of Walton, Hays, Risher and Munhall have re-
turned to work at the 2a-cent rate, and there are
now almost 1900 men at work at that price
The call issued for to morrow's convention does
not meet with the approval of large number of
the miners, as they seem to consider it an ac-
knowledgment of defeat Others, however, as
sert that it is the most commendable course to
pursue, alleging that with such large number
at work it would be impoitic to continue the
strike much longer. The reasons which have

step is that all attempts to get those who are

was interested, and which did not furnish suf-
ficient security The directors seemed depressed,
and are exceedingly reticent. Cashier Forester
expresses himself very plainly, and his condem-
nation of President McNeal's fnancier-
ing is unmistakable.. He says the
latter, since his elevation to the
presidency of the bank, last January, has in
vested the banks funds according to his own in
clinations. His operations have. at times, been
far from straight At the present time the
bank has surplus of So. 500. The bank holds

learned, the deposits amount to over $500, 900.
and according to statements from a quarter
which is supposed to be authentic, the president
has appropriated that amount The belief pre-
of the bank will develop new and
startling features. It is said that
resident Of Clinton saw him in Nashua
N. H., last week. The real condition of the
banks standing will not be known for few
days, and probably not then.
The missing president of tho bank was at the
depot at Fitchburg about 7:45 p. M. on Tuesday
and probably took the train to the north. One
of his acquaintances at Fitchburg twice tried to
speak to him, but McNeal took no notice of him.
The Lowell City Institution for Savings has
$40. 900 deposited in the Lancaster Bank, which
has been regarded with distrust for some
months. The City Institution has II, 600 depos-
itors, and surplus of $400. 900. Charles Gid
