side]. Benjamin Harrison had attained
his office by cash raised by Wanamaller
and disbursed by Dudley. He fStone)
belle we'd the government had been gen
erous enough to soldiers. Speaking
for himself (and speaking, he knew,
against the Judgment of his party assO-
ciates) he declared he had gone as far in
the direction of pensions as he intended
TO go, and he represented one of the
largest ex-Union soldier districts in the
country. He favored liberal system Of
pension laws, but ne entered his earnest
protest against the Indefensible extrav-
sganee H. public expenditures. He
favored the granting of liberal pensions
to true and bravo soldiers, but he was
opposed to the grantiriS of liberal pen
sions TO undeserving SOLDIERS or 10 bounty
jumpers.
Mr.. Lane of Illinois, in f2voring the
bills, referred to the remark R3de Oy
Mr. Stone that a contract existed pc
tween the government and the soldierss
and said that man who would say that
was as ignorant OF the relations between
the government and soldiers as Hotten-
tot.
Even the Democrats of Illinois did not
indOrse the words of the gentleman from
Missouri, but believed as he (Lane) did,
that the government had not done justice
to the men who had defended it in its
hour of peril.
After considerable further debate,
mostly in favor of pensions to the SOL
diers, the five private pension bills were
passed.
The house at its evening session passed
thirty private pension bills and adjourned
until Tomorrow.

the reports of the serious condition Of

closed by the government. The students
ct st. Petersburg university made an
attack upon Lieut. Gen. Gressner, chief

to the university to quell disturbances,
and treated him in very rough manner.
He was thrown to the floor, and while
lying PROSTATE was kicked a number of

The students abandoned the meeting
which they had proposed to hold yester-
day, the attendance being too small.
a number of students who have been
interviewed persist in their declaration
that the agitation is arising solely on ac-
count of educational matters. In proof
of this declaration the students assem-
bled at the university and archaeological
institute and sang the anthem, "GOd

incensed because of the disturbance, and
has signified his intention of closing all
high public educational establishments

Special to the Gazette.
PARIS, TEX, April 4.-The Federal
authorities have just brought to light a
foul murder that was committed FIVE
miles north of Purcell, in the Chickasa1
Nation. Over year ago last summer
b. J. Sykes was brought here on a
charge of horse stealing. It was de-
veloped on the examining t11al that he
had been living with old man Knott :,
who owned some horses aud other prop
erty. Knott disappeared, and when the
neighbors began to inquire about him
Sykes told them that he was off hunting
and trapping. After time he gave It
ontthat Knott had gone to Oregon, where
he had relatives. Letters of inquiry
were sent there, but the answer came
that he had not been there. Suspicion
was SO strong against Sykes that he was
arrested for horse stealing in order
to gain time for investigating the
case and see what had become
of Knott. He gave bond for his appear
ance at the last term of court but failed
to come and was hunted down and rear
rested. In about six weeks Knott g body
was found in ravine near Noble in Ok
lahoma. It was fully identified. The
examining trial OF Sykes for the murder,
was begun this afternoon and suspended
until more witnesses arrive. All the cir
cumstances indicate that Sykes killed
Knott at his home and then hauled the
body TO Oklahoma and concealed it.

The Primrose league is about to publish
in pamphlet form for distribution as an
election sdoouments the speech recently
adeffeered by Sir William Marriott, Con-
servatIve member of parliament for
Brighton, on the report of the Parnell
commission. In This address, which is by
ell odds the most offensive Tory uttereuce
on the subject yet made, William asserted
that the report is a direct conviction
of the accused members of the criminal
charges made against them and took the
ground, that the government having ac-
oepted the report must necessarily punish
the culprits. The action of the Primrose
league in publishing the report is equiva-
lent to an official Endorsement of the
speech, since its Issuance from such
source must obviously have received
ministerial sanction.

the subject. 1t is$permitted to be known,
however, that intense excitement exists,

LONDON, April 4.-Speaking of the
schemes for enlarging the American
navy, the London Engineer says: ssIn-
stead of the completely Insignificant feet
America proposes to have, one shown on
the list we give herewith Of 500 ZOO tons
arrived, and in all of AIS, 900 tons
displacement, costing over EOS 900 900,
not of dollars, but English pounds. When
it is borne in mind that the pro-
gramme laid before our mouse Of
commons last year was to provide for
3l6, 900 tons only and at cost of
G2l 500 900, the magnitude of the
American programme may be appre-
lated. 1t may be noticed that the
q RIM - -
about 500 200 and OF France 3IS 600
tons. Consequently if America were as
once to produce 500, 900 tons of armor
clad ships of the newest designs she
would be more powerful than France,
and with all our additions since
1888 she would approach us in
a formidable way. Seriously the
scheme is such as must raise the great
question, how can 1t pay the United
States to construct such fleet. They
have been in the happy position of pro-
Tossing not to need one in the way that
European nation, and especially that
England has needed hers. Up to this
time, the states have not suffered in
in any way of
which we are aware. Everyone
has respected America. She has
proved that she can both make and fight
ships in the best possible way, when she
likes, as we have learned in former
times to our cost. We do not doubt
that these ships could be made and armed
on American ground, without going
elsewhere, in course Of time, though this
would be great feat, and we should ex-
poet them to be handled in the best DOS
sible way. We look upon each ship and
upon each man as exactly as possible
like British ship and British
sailor, the surrounding conditions being
equal. It can be done If it Is worth
while. The question is still how can it
be worth while. This full programme
