ing Autumn.
copyright, 1890. by New York Associated Press. J
BERLIN, August 30th.-The progress of
the negotiations for the entrance of Russia
into the European entente is indicated by
the arrangements for autumn meetings of
the sovereigns. The projected interview
depends largely upon Austrias acceptance
of the terms upon which Emperor Will
liam proposes g revision of the Berlin
treaty. The opinion of the Foreign Office
officials here continues hopeful of a def
mite solution of the Balkan troubles before
the end of the year.
FRENCH AND RUSSIAN INTERESTS.
The Gar has sent Grand Duke Michael,
President of the Russian Council, on a
special mission to Paris, to reassure the
French Government. The Moscow Gazette
seeks to calm the fears expressed by the
French press in regard to the desertion of
France by Russia, by declaring that the
Cars persistent aim is to maintain the
balance of power, recognizing the fact that
Russia and France have common interests
and united responsibilities.
ANARCHISTS AND NIHILIsTs.

preston of Anarchists and Nihilists, the
Gar desiring European concert on this
matter. The riotous meeting of Berlin
Socialists at Friederichshue has given the
Government pretext for ordering special
military precautions against greater disor-
ders. The tumult at Friederichshue arose
from an abusive attack made by Herr
Willie upon Bebel.

MINERAL LANDS.
The Secretary of the Interior Renders an
Important Decision.

Important Decision.
WASHINGTON, August 30th.-The Secre-
tary of the Interior to-day decided the case
of the Central Pacific Railroad against S.
D. Valentine, involving the question of the
exception of mineral lands from railroad
grants. The particular tract involved is in
the Sacramento, Cal, Land District. The
Secretary holds that by the terms of the
railroad grant all mineral lands" are ex-
cepted from ITS operation, whether known
to be general in character at the date when
the railroad companys rights attached
under the grant or not, if they are discov-
cred to be mineral lands at any time before
the issuance of the patent 10 the company,
or certi6caiion where the patent is not re-
ouired. He also holds the discovery of the
mineral character OF the lands after the
cempany's rights have attached to its
granted lands, proves such lands were
mineral in character at the date when the
company's rights attached and were there
fore within the terms of exception from the
grant. This decision is OF vast Importance
to railroads running through mineral
belts, and is also contrary to the doctrine
laid down by Judge Sawyer, the United
States Circuit Judge in California, in a
recent decision in the case of Franconen
against Newhouse.

Important Changes to be Made in the
Method of Transmitting subscriptions.
DUBLIN, August 30th.-The plans for the
Irish-American Convention, to be held in
America, are now completed. Dillon and
O'Brien will be accompanied by two other
Irish members. and the whole party will
be under strict iDjunctions from headqusr-
tiers. The method of warfare adopted by
the special commission and evidence gwen
concerning the movements of Irish dele
gates and their Associations in America
have rendered this step necessary.
Important changes are to be made in the
method of transmitting subscriptions to the
central association. 1t has been customary
to send the different sums to one center in
America, and thence TO Dublin. In future
the central office will be abolished and
each branch will forward subscriptions
direct TO Dublin.

Him to Mortal Combat.
LONDON. August 30th.-The Journal says:
Marquis De Leuville has been challenged
to mortal combat by the London corre-
spondent of the Gil Bias. The challenge
was sent out on Friday morning. The
trouble arose from stories that the Marquis
had induced Mrs. Frank Leslie to consent
to marry him. The Gil Bias correspondent
called upon the athletic young nobleman,
and according to his announcement was
asked for details of the affair. De Leuville
threw the correspondent down stairs. Then
he boosted of his action, and when this
reached the ears of the latter, the Gil Bias
bristled with sarcastic items about the
Marquis. The latter said he would slap
the face of the correspondent. Then came
the challenge, which the Marquis accepted.
The duel will take place on the Continent
on Thursday.

suited by one Max Steiner. He has even fol-
lowed her with armed men, has questioned her
virtue and wrote letter TO the Sheriff of
Karnes county, in which he expressed the be-
lief that | was not married to her. She was
brought to bed and confined prematurely and
our babe was lost, all through the unheard of
terrible slurs and ISLANDERS cast upon her by the
same Steiner; and, while defending that most
dear to woman, her honor, she shot him through
the heart, and forever sealed the polluted lips
of the slanderer OF woman virtue.
The shooting occurred in ReynoSa, Tamau-
lipas, Mexico, on the 18th inst She, my wife,
Is now in jail at this place. We are indeed in
need of much financial aid. Gentlemen of

CENTRAL AMERICA.
General Ezeta will Remain President o
Salvador.

Salvador.
CRY OF MEXICO, August 30th.-The ru-
mors of peace arrangements in Central
America are conflicting, but the general
belief is that Ayalla will not act as Presi-
dent, and when Guatemala insisted upon
the return to the state of affairs existing
before the death of Menendez, it was with
the secret understanding that the Legis-
lative Assembly existing before the late
Presidents death, and then faithful to
Menendez, but now supporting Ezeta,
should be called to govern the country
until the election of President, unless a
choice for President should be arranged be-
forehand. The peace protocol is favorable
to Ezeta, but is worded and arranged so as
to hurt nobody's feelings, and affairs will
be as before, with Ezeta as President.

Msior BartelIot,s Diary.

NEW YORK. August 30th.-A London ca
BILE to the Herald says that the publication
in the autumn of Major Bartellot's diary,
with letters to his family, written while he
was in charge of the rear column, will put
a new phase on the controversy over SIAN
ley's expedition. Some facts will be
brought forward which are in direct con-
fiict with the statements in SANKEY'S nara
tive, and Major Bartellot's course of con-
duct will be placed in a very different light
from that in which Stanley left it. The
documents and papers impugn seriously
the entire management of the expedition
for the relief of Emin
