Laboucherc on the situation.

LONDON, October 2O-Labouchere says:
considerable GOODNESS has arisen between
the courts of st. Petersburg and Copen-
hagen, in consequence of Prince
Wildemars resolution not 10 become
the Russian candidate for the throne of
Bulgaria. 1t is pretty clear that we shall
soon be called upon TO evacuate Egypt by
the Sultan and European powers. We shall
then have 10 clear out or put ourselves into
defiance with what they are pleased to call
European law. should not regret it were
we forced to withdraw our presence. There
is the outrage. We are no gamers by it, but
heavy lOosers. We have no special inter
ests there, and at present are spending sew
eral hundred thousands OF pounds per an
mum, and violating every principal of right,
for the sole benefit OF a number of specula-
tors who have bought Egyptian bonds cheap
and wish us to spend money in order to in
sure them usurious interest. History does
not contain a mere discreditable page than
that which will be devoted to our interfer-
ence in Egypt"
special to the morning Post, from Sofia
says: The Bulgarian government is thor
oughly satisfied with the result OF the eiec-
tion, and is now inclined to negotiate with
Russia regarding the election OF Prince.
Is is said wealthy American resident of
of Paris has placed at the disposal of the
Bulgarian government loan of 100000

LONG L. MOTIFS COMEDY co.
Another Grand success at the
Grand.

"The Private Secretary" was repeated at
the Grand Opera House last night by the
excellent Long & Mott Comedy Company.
The house was full to the doors again, and
the audience was held bound in the spell of
the broad humor of the piece from the
opening to the close. This side-splitting
comedy will hold the boards again at the
Saturday matinee, when the prices will be
reduced to SO cents. An early purchase OF
good seats will be imperative, as very full
house may be expected.
sTo-night the attraction will be "Young
Mrs, Winthrop" about the most touching
society drama on the boards. Mr.. +. ].
Buckley will play the part of Douglas Win
throp, in which he scored such q hit in
playing it at the Madison Square for two
years.
Tho yonng ladies in the company, Miss
Charlotte Tittell. Miss Alice Carmen. Mrs.
Chas Edmunds and Miss Jennie Darragh,
are all favorites in Los Angeles.
Young Mrs. Winthrop is play.
Full of human interest-a vivid picture OF
every day life. Douglas Winthrop, New
York merchant, in his endeavors to accum-
ulate fortune hastily, becomes so alb
wife. His frequent visits to the Club and
the gossip of Mrs Chitnyer excites Con
stances (his wife) jealousy. She becomes
jealous of a Mrs. dunbar, leader of fash
ion, whom Douglas has to visit to shield his
from his wife to spare her the humiliation
of knowing he was to be arrested for for
gerry. She, in her grief, is visited by an in
flict ion in the loss of their daughter Rosis.
and insists on a sepal alton from he- hus-
band believing him to be in love with Mrs,
Dunbar. BuXten Scott, who has known
them both since their birth. is retained to
draw up the papers, but resolves to dupe
them. Whilst reading the documents for
the separation he recalls the scenes OF their
infancy and courting so yividly that they
involuntarily rush into each others arms.
and he wins the case-a reconciliation is
affected. The comedy scenes are in the
hands of Scott, Mrs. Ghitnyer, Hurbert and
Edith, "a blind girl, whose simple love Tor
Hurbert is the prettiest reproduction OF life
ever seen in any play. The piece ran for a
year IN New York, at the Madison Square
Theatre, and is the best society drama ever
written.

AFFAIRS In UTAH.
Interesting Report of Governor
West.

WASHINGTON October 20.-Caleb w. West,
Governor OF Utah, in his annual report
says: The number of children of school
age. in the Territory June 80 was 5.63S; ex-
penditure for school purposes S22s,S44 In
addition there are mission schools main
tanned by various Christian denominations
which he praises very highly. They num-
Der IS with FOG teachers, 6,336 pupils msin-
lained at a cost OF s350,000. The report then
summarizes the grazing, agricultural and
mining products of the Territory. On the
subject of polygamy the Governor says:
THE all absorbing question in this Territory
dominating all otn ers, hurtfully affecting
its prosperity. impeding Its advancement,
disturbing the quiet and happiness OF Its
people, is the
ATTITUDE OF DEFIANCE
Assumed and maintained by the Mormon
people, who are probably five sixths OF the
whole population, to the law of Congress
for the suppression OF poly8amy, known as
the imunds law. In all quest Ons affect
lug the Mormon Church and people the po-
lygamous and homogeneous Mormons make
common cause, stand together and are unit
ed. They maintain publicly, through thelr
leaders and teachers. in their houses of
worship, through their press and privately,
in social and business circles, that the law
is an infamous interference with and de
uial to them OF thut religious tIeeuOm guar
anteed to all by the Constitution; that they
are prepared to and will, If required of
them, sacrifice their personal comfort, their
property, suffer indefinite Imprisonment
and surrender life itself rather than yield
and promise.
OBEDIENCE TO THE LAW
And forego the privileges they claim. The
government can have and hold but one
position towards this people which is one of
easy statement. Its authority must be re-
spected, its laws must be obeyed. During
the year the were ninety. four convictions
in the Federal Courts for polygamy and un-
lawful cohabitstion. In nearly ill these
cases the convicted people have absolutely
refused to accept their freedom by giving
their promise to obey the laws in future.
IN conclusion. the Governor says. he knows
of no armed organization for the purpose
of opposing the lawful authorities or resist
ing the enforcement of the laws; nor does
he believe any such now exists, but says
need may arise at any time for the prompt
use of Il strong well disciplined and
EFFICIENT MILITARY FORCE
To aid the civil power, and recommends
that force of United States troops be
placed and kept in garrison in the Terri
tory. The Governor urges the passing of the
bill in reference TO bigamy now before Con-
gress. Its effect will be to stay i'm migra-
tion and deprive of political privilege those
who identity themselves with this people
to aid and abet them in violation of the
law.

BRAVE BULGARIA.
VIII Not Brook the interference
of Foreign Powers.

SOFIA, october 20.-Gadban Effendi, the
Turkish representative. has informed the
Bulgarian Minister that he has been in
structed to ac: in concert with Gen. Kaul-
bars, Russian agent. He strongly advised
the Ministry to concede the Russian de-
mands, and to postpone the meeting of the
Great Sobranji to elect successor to the
Bulgarian throne. As soon as Gadban Eff
fendps information was received special
Cabinet council was held to consider what
he had presented. The result of this coun-
ell was that Gadban Effendi was
informed that the Bulgarian govern
ment would no more brook Turkish
than it would Russian interference. but
would resist both. Alarm is felt here over
the massing OF Turkish troops which Is at
present in progress along the Bulgarian
frontier. The Regency have published de-
crees convening the great Sobranje on Octo-
ber 9th. All foreign Consuls, excepting
the Russian representative, will attend the

A Disastrous Fire.

The San Bernardino Index of last Satur-
day, contains the following account of tina
destruction of Guernsey's sawmill: About
O'Clock last night fire was seen OH the
mountains in the direction of Prairie Flat
or Strawberry Valley; but then it was
thought to be a forest flame, and no special
attention was drawn that way. We are sor-
ry. however, to be called upon to-day to
record the fact that the entire property of
ii. A. Guernsey went up in smoke at the
hour above mentioned. Not avestige of the
mill or its surroundings, except the house
occupied as sleeping room by Mr.. Guern-
sey, is left. over 400. 900 feet of lumber was
consumed, and a large supply of box mate.
rial won't up in the ilame. 1t is estimated
by thosa who seem to know that no. less
$40, 600 W i'll cover the loss. The insurance,
If any, is at this time not known. The loss
to Mir. Guernsey, coming as it does after
heavy expense of putting in new machin-
cry, can hardly be calculated with any de-
gree of accuracy. The gentleman has a
host of warm friends in San Bernardino
who sympathize with him in his loss.
