CHOLERA CREATES A PANIC.-The
prevalence af cholera in Astrakhan has
caused panic in that city. A large
number of workingmen, after receiving
an advance of their wages to induce
them to remain in Astralhan, made
preparations to desert their employers
and leave the place. The authorities
tried to compel the workmen to fulfill
their contracts, and the result was a
serious riot. The police could not
handle the mob and the military were
summoned to assist them.- The rioters
were not dispersed until a number of
them had been killed or wounded.

THERE SEEMS to be Il general impress
sion among the anti as well as pro sill
verites, of both political parties, that
President Harrison Will veto the bill
for the free and unlimited coinage Of
silver, if the U. 5. House of Represent
atiyes shall concur with the Senate
in passing it. But Senator Morgan,
who is as close to the President as any
republican Senator, says the President
will not veto it, and he usually knows
what he is talking about. Two weeks
before the Senate passed the bill Sena-
tor Morgan said it would be passed by
both the Senate and the House, and
that il wouldnot be vetoed by the Pres
ident. IfMr. Cleveland were President
he would veto it withouthesitancy, but
whether Mr.. Harrison would do like
wise is by no means so certain.

the occurrences at Homestead, and
claimed that the republicans had
failed to fulfil their promises of high

which brought sharp retort from Mr..
Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, who said MIR.
McMiilin did not know what he was
talking about. The latter said the
former was talking at random. Mr..
