LONDON, June S.-The agitation
aroused by the government proposal to
compensate the keepers of public houses
for the loss of licenses through the con-
templated reduction of the number
granted. has hitherto been confined to
the temperance element and others OPP
posed to the measure for various reasons,
giving the impression that the bill had
few if any friends outside of the ministry
and its immediate followers. This belief
was strengthened by the elaborate prep
arations which havo been making for
some time for the great protest meeting
which is to be held in Hyde park neyL.
Saturday when scores of commoners
other prominent men are Rnuounc thing:
speak in denunciation of the -
posal. To-day however, two imme,.nd
meetings of publicans and their part
sans were held in London without any
of the heralding of which next Saturdays
opposing movement has had the benefit.
The speakers at these meetings earnestly
supported the government scheme and
roundly denounced Gladstone for his OPP
position, reminding him of the downfall
of his own ministry through an attempt
TO impose q burdensome and uncalled
for tax on beer. The greatest enthu-
siasm prevailed at both meetings, and
abundant evidence was shown that the
publicans control a sufficient proper
ton of the electors to render the return
of many members of parliament who
may vote against the bill extremely I'M
certain, if not absolutely impossible at
the next general election.
GUNBoAT LAUNCHED.
The new japanese war ship Chiyeda
was successfully launched in the Clyde
to-day. The vessel ls an ironclad, 800
feet long, and is designed to carry
twenty-eight guns. She is also fitted
with three torpedo tubes. Besides the
Japanese officers who have been in Eng
land for some time performing duties in
connection with the construction of the
new ship, 300 japanese sailors with
additional officers have arrived here for
the purpose of managing and navigating
her to Japan.
READY TO VISIT AMERICA.
A young man named Lemish employed
as a stock clerk in brokers office, in
this city, was arrested to-day as he was
about taking his departure for America.
When ne was searched he was found 10
have on his person $4,000 worth of nego-
table bonds which he had stolen from
his employers, together with other miss
ing property, and tickets for New York.

Want to Get Rid of Breckenridge.
SDacial To tba Cazafta

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, June 3.-The house
elections committee seem resolved to get
rid of Representative Breckenridge OF
Arkansas if possible. They voted this
morning to deny his request for exam
nation of several more witnesses in Ar
kansas on the ground that he had had
abundant opportunity to call witnesses
while the subcommittee were in that
state and he has specified several wit
nesses of prime Importance, in his opin-
ion, three of whom are in Washington
now, and these the committee consented
to examine, but Breckenridge did not
care to have this done unless all could be
called. 1t Is extremely probable that
the committee will throw out the cleo
ton as invalid and require new one to
be held.
SOUTH CARoLISS ELECTION LAWS I'M
6SsTITUTIoNAL.
In tAs Etsst of Miller against Elliott in
Ssds6 Carolina the report of the COM
mittee has been prepared for submission
to the house as soon as the minority re-
port is ready to go with it. 1t declares
the election laws of South Carolina un-
constitutional. This will not. in the
judgment of the committee, require the
throwing out of the whole delegation,
but evidence adduced by Miller to prove
that even in spite of the unconstitutional
character of the law under which the
electiap was held he had a majority of
fsotes honestly cast, will be accepted
as decisive.

The news that Judge Gustave Cook Of
Houston has entered the ring for the
gubernatorial prize was received here
with some little surprise. From casual
talks among members of the delegation
your correspondent is impressed with the
view that there is strong belief in the
fatility of any new Richmond IS aspera-
tions for the governorship. The opinion
is general indeed that Attorney General
Hogg has already won the fight.
Frank Fitzhugh of Texas is in the city.

sure OF ULTIMATE SucCe3h
Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, June 3.-Col. Gresham +,
who has been here since the beginning Of
the present congress in the interest OF
the Galveston deep water bill, was asked
to-day by THE GAZETTE man if he was
still sanguine of the passage of the
bill by the house. Col. Gresham
replied unhesitatingly in the affirmative.
al am certain that the Dill will pass, -
he said. est is q measure that has been
constantly growing in strength and its
passage by the senate without debate
showed its z. eat popularity. Ianticipate
no difficulty when it comes before the
house.
Col. Gresham's views seemed to be
shared by all the Texas delegation. If
by any mischance the bill should fail to get
through congress this session it will be
enacted next session beyond doubt.
CULBERsoN IN THE FRONT LINE.
The friends of Col. Culberson,
who are numbered by the score
outside of his Texas colleagues,
are unanimous in their expressions
of preference for him as the next
speaker of the house, provided, of
course, the Democrats have control.
The belief is general that the fall cleo
tons will result in such general Demo-
cratic victory that the house will be
theirs Overwhelmingly. In this
event it is conceded that
the speskership should go to q South
erner, and it is urged that Col. Culber-
son, from his long experience as legis-
lator, his fame as constitutional law
yer, and his prestige as skilled parlia-
mentarian, would ill the requirements
of the high position. THE GAZETTE is
the first paper to state authoritatively
that Col. CulDerson is in the race for
the speakership, and that his chances of
success are fattering.

 LONDON, Sept. BOA study of the warrant upon which Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien were arrested shows that it fails to specify with any particular ity the offences for which the arrests were ordered. The document is yer bose and clumsy in style and matter. -
 MT. Healy believes that it is fatally defective, and that if the accused are granted an appeal they will be able to have the proceedings quashed.
 Sir Charles Russell, the eminent bar Eister, apparently takes the same view, Tor ia speech at Darlington last night he referred to the shadowy na- ture of the charges and said that simi- lar writs had been set aside in the past. This being so, he asked, "Why might not like fate await the present proceedings 3' >.~
 The raising of this question by law. yers of repute has caused some uneasi- ness among the Conservatives. The Globe, for instance, expresses the hope shat step so certain to concentrate at tention upon Irish affaiIs and to re- kindle the flames of passion which were gradually expiring, has not been taken without ample legal evidence as basis. A blunder in a matter of this importance would have deplorable re- suits.

 DUBLIN, Sept. 20.-The proceedings against Messrs. Dillon, and O'Brien were on warrants of arrest, but in the oas es of the other accused Nationalists only summonses have been issued.
 MT. Dillon, in an interview dwells upon this fact as proving that the Gov ernment's object was to prevent NIT. O'Brien and himself from going to America.
 lfr. Patrick o,Brien, MT. Dalton. Members of Parliament, and Mir. John Cullinane were arrested last night at Kingstown on the warrants issued at the same time as those for William OBrien and John Dillon.
 Leading members of the Nationalist t party are constantly calling at the office of the League and much satisfac- tion is expressed at the turn affairs have taken, and there is great .rejoic- ing over the signal advantage the course pursued by the Government has given the cause.
 The "Freeman's Journal" commsnt- ing on the arrests of Messrs.

A Turkish Man-of-War Sinks Osman
 Pasha Perishes.
 CoNsTANTINoPLE, Sept. 20.-There is great excitement here over the found ering at sea of the Turkish man-of- war Ertzogroul and the drowning of the crew of 800.
 Osman Pasha, whose victory over the Russians at Plevna gave him 8 high rank as fighting general, was on board and was lost. He had been on an off cial visit to Japan, having been intrus- jed with Q special mission from the Sultan to the Mikado.
 The progress of the Ertzogroul since she left Constantinople for the East, many months ago, has been a most dig nified and ludicrous one. Leaving Turkey short of money, it was under stood that supplies were to be sent for her use to the ports at which she was to call, with the result that her sojourn In those countries was indefinitely pro- longed, as the officers at home were not able to keep their promises.
 In this way she lost some of her crew, and her officers were many times on the verge of rebellion, induced by starvation, while the governors of the cities visited refused to remit harbor dues and grant other privi- leges that were of light due her as 8 Turkish man-of-war, on the ground that she was not sailing in that char acter. There was not powdert enough on board to enable her crew to fire the regulation salutes.

How the BoOkmaker's Money Box was Spirited Away.
 NEW YORK, Sept. 20.-Nearly all the money taken from the box at the ven- dome Hotel has been recovered. The bell boys, Oscar Matthews and Henry Cassen, have confessed. During the excitement caused by the loss of Helen Dauvray's dog the clerk placed the box on the counter. One of the bell boys took 1t, handed 1t over to the other and together they broke it open with a chisel and threw the empty box away 1.
 The accused boys were brought to the Jefereon Market Police Court, where they were remAnded back to police headquarters at the request of Inspector ByI mes, and whO will probably make public the full confession of the boys. Just how much of the money or bonds have been recovered is known only tf the police.

 They were immediately brought into line and despatched to their cells.
 Michael Brown, e 10-year convict for burglary, was hslplessly drunk and had to be carried to his cell, The re- mainder of the whiskey was poured into the Hudson River.
