DISSATISFACTION IN INDIA.
The Natives in Many of the Large Cities
Ready to Burst Into Sedltion.

A number of exceptional meetings Of the
India council have been held in London re-
Gently, due to advices from Simla on the dis
turbed state Of India. The immediate question
before the council, whether the government be
authorized TO proceed in a retrial Of the Bun
goJdsi case and prosecute for sedition other
native papers, was decided in the negative.
The government seems to be afraid TO risk the
failure OF the prosecution, which would result
in q serious blow TO the prestige of British rule
The 81. James GGzette, always well informed
on India, says the country is in dangerous
state of ebulhtion. and since the marriage re-
forms were passed the discomfort has been of
rapid growth. Many large cities ready to
burst into sedition aud will be difficult to con-
troll. The disa:fected have lost that wholesome
respect for British authority which sutIi-
| cient for three decades TO keep the peace. Any
deliberate attempt 10 toment open ssdition
may readily succeed. The prospect is alto
setEe. gloomy. According to a high official in
! tic India office the government is aware Of the
tendencies TO disorder in the great cities but il
! Is satisfied with the general position. A native
| press association. forming under tke sanction
OF the government, is expected to promote
harmony by moderate expression OF views

Wind Storm That Dismantled Many Houses
In the New jersey City.
A cyclone swept over the lower part Of
Newark n. j., at 2:15 o'clock yesterday after
noon, coming with frightful velocity and with
out warning. The roof of three-story build
ing on the corner of Bowery and Lexington
streets was torn from its fastenings and whirled
skyward nearly 200 feet, doing considerable
damage in its flight.
The storm came up from the southwest at q
time when the sky was clear, with few light,
gauzy clouds. One cloud, somewhat dense and
dark, came sailing along from the direction in
which the wind was blowing and descended on
the southeast section of the city. At Chestnut

Wreck-Detectives on the Case.

Explanation Of the Cause Of the statesville
Wreck-Detectives on the Case.
A special to the Philadelphia Press from
statesville, N. c., says: Twenty-Five persons are
known to be dead as the result Of the railroad
wreck here yesterday, but it is thought that
at least six more bodies are in the bottom Of
the stream into which the cars fell.
1t is now believed that the wreck was caused
by tramps taking up the track or loosening the
rails. causing them to spread. Some Of the
spikes we're drawn. Two tramps were put of
freight train few hours before the wreck.
Col. A. B. Andrews, second vice president;
Capt. W. h. Green, general manager; Superin-
tendent R. R. Bridgers and other officials are
here and will put detectives on the case to run
down the tramps.
The bridge where the wreck occurred ia q
high arch culvert two miles west of Statesville.
1t is nearly 200 feet long and nearly so feet
high. The train left the track just as it
reached the culvert. When the cars were well
across they tumbled into the water below. The
bridge was 80 strong that it was not damaged
seriously. Several crossties were split

Bonds Declared Invalid.

Pulaskicounty bonds, amounting to 800, 900,
have been declared invalid by Judge Alien
In the United States court at Springfield,
Illinois. 1t was in the case of August T.
Post of New York against the county Of Pu.
iaski- The bonds in controversy were issued
by the county in October, 1872, in aid Of the
construction Of the Cairo and Vincennes rail-
road and Post held some Of the coupons The
county refused to pay the coupons on the
ground that no regular notice was given of the
election a: which the question of issuing the
bonds was submitted. 1t was claimed by the
plaintiff that the recital on the face of the
bonds that they were issued pursuant to law
estopped the county from denying that regular
notice OF the election was given. 1t was also
claimed that an act passed by the legislature in
1869 made the election regular and valid The
court, however, took a different view of the
matter and pronounced invalid the entire issue
OF bonds, amounting to 100000.

Distress in the Valley Of the Volga.

Russian newspapers confirm the recent re-
ports Of terrible distress among the peasants
in the valley of the Volga. The people are in
a condition of the utmost restitution, without
clothes and without food. wandering about in
rags, on the verge of starvation. Swarms of
families have left their omes and resorted to
begging on the roadsides. The situation of
the entire population is extremely critical
The Kie,rlGnin, published in Kieff, considers
the conditi' n of The peasants desperate. Al
ready immersed in povery and indebted to the
state, while their taxes, which they are unable
to pay, CONTINUE to accumulate, by next spring
the entire Russian peasantry will probably be
bankrupt. Reports from Warsaw show that
the peasants Of central Russia are emigrating
by the Wholesale. Five hundred men have al
ready abandoned their families in order to
emigrate. The VOss.sc4e Zeaf,lng says tina.
Russia is undergoing the periodical famine to
which she is subject and which becomes more
serious with each recurrence, owing to her
primitive h1sbaudry and the indebtedness Of
her peasants.

executive hardly know how to treat the extra
ordinary crop of labor candidates finding ac-
ceptance in radical constituencies. The length

to give new character to the general election,
tending to accord predominance to social ques-
tons In many districts where tie electoral man
ayers prefer to see the contest waged on the or
binary party lines. The men selected in the
labor interest chiefly represent the trades
unions, though o number are also identified
with socialism. As a test OF their practical
earnestness the supporters of the labor nomi-
nees In most instances pay the expenses of the
contest and guarantee q yearly allowance to the
candidate if elected. II the movement sue
