HARRISON TO GO EAST
And Spend a Month as S, B.
EIkins' Guest.
A MOST RIDICULOUS STORY
Which May be True, But Probably
Not-Gen. Harrison's Day Yestcr-
day-LoyaI Legion Callers.
Looking to Inauguration.

New YoRK, Dec. 2O.-A report was in
circulation here to-day that President.
elect Harrison will visit this city on OIL
about January 10, rs the guest of Ste
phen B. Elkins, and remain at least d
month.
The route which he will take, it is said,
will be by the Vandalia road to Pitts.
burgh, thence by the Pennsylvania, an
elegantly appointed palace car having
been placed at his disposal.
The story goes that Mr.. Elkins, who is
interested in Western ranch with Rus
sell Harrison, met the elatter in Pennsyl-
vania Just alter the election, and through
him extended the invitation, and that
young Mr., Harrison, during his stay in
this city, has informed Mr.. Elkins ofhis
fathers acceptance.
A peculiar fact, however, is the abso-
lutte secrecy observed by General Harri-
sons immediate friends in relation to
the matter. 1t is thought that this
may be due to the fact that Mr.. Elkius
is close friend OF Mr.. Blaine, and Gen
eral Harrison shuns the public con-
struction which would be put upon
such visit If announced at this early
day. The report OF the trip, however, is
largely discredited by Republicans here.
Russell Harrison starts for Indiauapo'
lis this evening. He has made Il hit in
successfully evading newspaper men

THAT -DUDLgY LETTER"
No Evidence that 1t was ever seen by Dud.
Iey-ItA History.

Iey-ItA History.
TSntANAr'tIs, Dec. 20.-The Federal
Grand Jury is still III session and ex,
amined a number of witnesses to-day.
The impression seems to be growing
that no Indictment will be found in the
Dudley case. A prominent Republican
speaking of the matter this evening ex-
pressed the decided opinion that no in.
dictment would be returned, because,
said he: "There is not the necessary
evidence against Col. Dudley. There
has been evidence but the links don't
meet. The jury is giving the letter the
most thorough and searching inyestiga-
ton, but no witness has yet connected
Dudley directly with II"
This same authority gives what he
styles the history OF the famous letter
which was published in the Ssntinci.
lie states that the letter was sent to the
Sentinel from Evansville by some un-
known party. There was nothing about
the letter by which the sender could be
identified. Editor Morse called in a
number OF experts on Dudley's sigma
ture, and they agreed the signature was
Colonel Dudiey's beyond any doubt
and the letter was consequently pub
lished as genuine.
81 understand that the. person who
furnished the letter to tho Sentinel can
not be produced before the grand jury,
although that body is exceedingly anx-
ious to interview him."

WRECK ON THE b go.
An Engine and Twenty Cars Smashed and
Traffic Suspended.

PITTSBURGH, Dec. 20.-The Pittsburgh
division OF the Baltimore & Ohio Rail
road was badly blockaded this morning
and passengers from the East coming to
this city were detained from early morn
ing until this afternoon.
A freight wreck occurred at o'clock
last night at Browns siding, twenty
miles from the city. Freight train No.
72 loaded with coal, which was east
bound from Sandy Patch, was going
down heavy grade and an effort was
made to stop it while the west-bonnd
freight No. 90 was taking a siding. The
grade was so steep that the crew OF No.
72 could not check it in time, and "side-
wiped" No. 60 while it was only par
TALLY on the siding. The engine Of No.
~ and twenty cars were wrecked. The
track was badly obstructed and could
not be cleared until 10 o'clock this morn:
ing. The crews on the trains escaped
uniniured by jumping before the col
lision.
The express No. I from the East,
which runs to Chicago via Pittsburgh,
and was due here this morning, was sent
around the main stem. The Pittsburgh
sleeper arrived at 2:30 o'clock this after
noon, attached TO express No. 3.

RIVER AND HARB0R BILL.
A Lively Discussion Upon it in
the House.
ITS POLITICAL EFFEC
Prophesicd by u Member oppos-
itlon TO All Such Appropriations.
a Board Proposed-intcr-
State Rivers Improved.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2O.-lhe House
went into Committee OF the Whole
on the River and Harbor bill. Mr. Sow
den spoke in opposition to the measure
and directed his remarks especially
against that provision that six members
elect of the Fifty.frst Congress shall,
prior to the first Monday in December
next investigate the expenditure of ap-
preparations for internal improvements,
with authority to visit the place where
appropriations are expended. He re.
garded this rs an extraordinary provis.
lou. Six distinguished individuals
chosen to the next House might so on
pleasure trip at the expense Of the pub
lie. Who could say they would not ab-
sorb thousands OF dollars along the coasts
and throughout the navigable streams
OF the country in search OF information
which it was the duty OF the Secretary
Of War to furnish Congress?
Mr.. Cummings said thatin the light oi
past riverand hurbor legislation thought
ful statesmen ought to go SLOW. It
was only II little over six years since
President Arthur bad vetoed II river and
harbor bill carrying $l0,OOO,OOO. The
country had stood aghast at the immense
sum. The House had passed the meas
ure over the Presidents veto. The
vetoed river aud harbor bill had been
passed in the August preceding the Con-
gressiOnal election OF 80. Within three
months the people had swept its warm.
est supporters into political oblivion.
Now this bill came up two years before
Il Congressional election, but let not its
supporters hug the delusion that their
action would be forgotten.
Mr.. Stewart, Of Texas, declared in re.
spouse to Slr. Cummings, thatther was
not river provided for in the bill which
did not come within the designation oil
an interstate river.
Mr.. Fitch, OF New York, spoke briefly
in opposition to the substitute OF which
Mr.. Grain gave notice yesterday, in'
rrrasing the aggregate OF the bill to
81, 100000.
MI. McAdoo, OF New Jersey, said that
the present system was pouring money
INTO the water without AIRY return being
made for it. He favored the eXpendi-
ture OF Ia lump sum under the direction
81 u Board OF Internal improvements OF
The Chief Engineers. The reading oi
the bill by paragraphs having been en-
lered upon the committee rose and the
House adjourned.

LONDON, Dec. 2O.-The Standards cor
at suakim sends the follow
ing particulars OF the battle:
At 4:3O this morning the man.of.war
Racer opened the battle by shelling the
enemy's trenches. The ships up-coast
followed suit and landed parties, who
lighted fires and placed dummies in po-
sition. This had the effect OF deceiying
the enemy coming from Handoub.
The whole force moved towards the
enemy's left flank, with naval detach-
ment with machine guns and cavalry
and mounted infantry scouting and pro-
tecting the flanks and rear. Two lines.
comprising battalions in double com,
panies, rushed towards the left corner Of
the enemy's trenches, the British infan.
try and Egyptian reserve lining the en-
bankment between the water forts, Gen.
,Grenfell aud staff occupied a position
to the left Of the water forts. From 5
o'clock heavy salvoes Of guns and NOR
tars from every fort bore on the trenches.

LONDON, Dec. 2O.-A dispatch to the
Times from suakim says: The priso-
ners say they believe that all the mount
ed gunners were killed. All tell the
same story of privation and cruelty
at the hands OF the Mahdi and
osman Digna. None OF them wished to
fight, but were forced to do SO or per-
suaded to fight by promises of loot at
Suakim and other rewards. The trenches
were bare. They found no food, cloth
ing or money, but only Snider rifles and
cartridges.
The prisoners knew nothing of the re.
ported capture of Emin, or the fall OF the
Equatorial provinces. The natives MS.
sert that Handoub would fall at the first
approach OF our troops The Goyern-
ment ought not to lose this chance. The
task is an easy one, as there is not the
slightest gathering OF the local tribes.
