ing ot Cap.a:n CrE~.-rL by Mexican soldiers. He says: "Hhere IS no wSy of obtaining definite information, owing to the absence of witnesses to the tTsge- dy." But IL is conceded on both sides that the-attack was made by irregular Mexican troops employed by the state of Chihuahua, through an unfortunate mistake and without malice. He fur ther says that the depredatiOns commit ted in Mexico by Indians nurtured by the United States government, Is grievance that cannot well be overlook ed. The circumstances attendingthe af- fair are being investigated by the Mexi- can authorities,

 LONDON, May 12--The defection among the supporters Ot Gladstone has grown s0 rapidly that to-day the num- Der of adherents Cf Lord Harrington and Chamberlain has risen from eS to US.
 The Eugllsb and Scotch radical papers that hitherto supported Gladstone, now concur that his concessions are ln- adequate; thas the joint commission Is
 practically impossible and that the home rule bill is doomed to defeat unless cru cial amendments be made. Its opponents calculate there will be a majority of forty against the bill. Gladstone has
 been urged to assent to day to discus sion bill and be has promised to reply on
 tine subject On Thursday. One hundred
 aud twenty-five members will speak
 during the debate.
 WAsHIyGT ,x, May 12-The messages from the president yesterday presented
 to the senate, were to-day submitted to
 the house and appropriately referred.
 In the morning Belmont called uP the joint resolution, providing indemnity to certain Chinese subjects for losses sus- tained within the jurisdiction of the
 United States. The resolution was con sidered in the committee of the whole.
 Belmont gave history of the Chinese massacre at Rock Springs, Wyoming. None of the persons engaged in the out
 rage appeared to be American citizens. Rock Springs consisted of two settle ments, one inhabited by Welshmen and Swedes. the other by Chinese, all re- ceivIng the same rate of pay for eight years. The white and Chinese miners had lived peeceably together. Last summer strike was attempted to be originated by the white miners in which the Chinese refused to take part. The evidence was clear and satisfactory, and that DO other cause of Otiense was gwen. On the 2i of September the white min CTS. to the number of 150, armed them selves with rifles and made an attack on the residences of the ChInamer, killing twenty-eight and wOunding many Oth- CTS, and burning and plundering their quarters. By the passage of these resO- lutions, the United States would ex- press its sympathy with the victims of the wrong; that the United States could prevent to foresee all considerations as to the responsibility of the federal gov ernment in its relation to state and ter ritorial jurisdiction should be waved ID the performance of plain duty.
 FeltOn, of California, thought if the committee on foreign affairs had ex- pended its time in examining the caus- | es under which these outrages arise; If il had looked into the history of the past, it would have found that these Outrages were the natural Tesul, of ChIn- ese immigration. The eom~Itte should have addressed it's atterI o1 to remedy ing the evil other 'ha- Eating and paving for scenes iil Q t..-..
 Morrow, of C'l'a' nia, said that standing alone. th, m-asure was one of doubtful prOpriety. considering the | relations between tuo Chinese and the | United States, and the necessity for ! further Legislation and for treaty stIp- | ulations absolutely prohibiting immigrs tiOn of Chinese subjects, he was dis posed to thiUk that the ben6vOlence of congress night be Gn act of wisdom. He was Tn favor o' the resolution, be- cause 1t would strengthen the executive | in his attempts to secure the consent of | China to put a stop to immigration.
 McKenns, of California, expressed his | horror of the outrages psrpetrated at Rock Springs. IL was not clear to him, thut the outbreak of antipsthy in which | DO Americans participated, had any | claim upon the consideration of con gress.
 HIll, of Illinois, denied that the reso- lutiOn would set any bad precedent. On the contrary, not to pass it, would be departure from the settled line of policy and would be violation of the national honor. He cited numerous cases in which the United States bad demanded and secured from China indemnity for injuries and insults perpetrated on American citizens.
 WorthIngtOn, of Illinois, favored the resolution. The United States bOssted that 1t was Christian nation, He be lieved it was on a plane of civilization higher than China. It sent missionaries to heathen China. Should II be said the United States would refuse that indem- nifty to China, which China had already made to the United States in similar cases? He was willing to base his action on the broad principle of equity.
 Pending a further discussion, the hour expired sLd the committee rose.
