tidencei The government would at all
events hold office until it became certain
that the various sections of the opposition
would combine to maintain new govern
ment. tHear. hear.l Proceeding TO COM
ment upon the probable liberal foreign
policy, he specially urged upon the liberals
the necessity of declaring whether or not
they designed an early evacuation Of Egypt.
Lord Herschel held that no declaration of
policy coming from the liberal government
ought 10 be given until the liberal govern
ment was constituted. The ministers, he
said, were still private members, and their
declarations, IL they INDUCED In any, could
not bind the future government. Regard
ing the liberal forefgn policy, the liberals
had never embarrassed Lord Salisbury's
conduct of affairs, aud he hoped that the
conservatives, whom In opposition, would
similarly assist the liberal foreign minister .

HIS ONLY HOPE.
MEAPHIs, TENN, Aug. S.-Thsre are two
possible anchors of hope for H. Clay King
but IL is probable that one of these has been
cut away. His friends may have recourse
to the United States supreme court, but
from actions OF the attorneys and also from
the opinion that that application was made
TO the supreme court for a writ Of error be-
fore steps were taken in the fed
eral court at Nashville, this
avenue of escape from the gallows
is closed. The friends of King have only
one more road leading from death by the
rope, and John p. Buchanan holds q gate
across 1t. None of his friends are so SAN
guine as to hope for Col. Kings pardon by
the governor, bHt his friends and lawyers are
trying to secure Communication of his SEN

A BATTLE IN HONDURAS.
THE REBELS ROUTED BY THE Gov
ERNMENr TROOPS.

President Leiva Charters a Steamer
Troops Sent on Her TO Puerto CorteE
and the Battle Fought There-Plans
of the Rebels Betrayed.
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 6.-The steamship
City of Dallas arrived yesterday afternoon
with the latest intelligence Of the revolution
In Spanish Honduras. 1t appears that the
government once NOR 9 has the upper hand
and that President Leiva and his cabinet
will remain in control He has
chartered the steamship Spazetta
a New Orleans vessel, and has converted it
into a wership, loading the ship with
troops. Il departed recently from Puerto
Cortez to attack Ceiba. 1t is reported that
pitched battle was fought at Ceiba be-
tween resident revolutionists and the gov
ernment troops, in which the latter were
victorious.
BoMBARDED FROM TIE SHIP.
The vessel is said to have con-
tributed materially to the result by
bombarding the revolutionists with
some light ordnance with which it had
been armed. The bombardmeut dlslodged
the rebels and they fed in disorder to the
forests. The government is reported to
have been reinforced by the addition of a
band of insurgents who deserted Gen.
Nuila and marched into Puerto Cortez. The
commander of this band disclosed the
movements Of the revolutionists.
PLANS OF THE REBELS.
They intended to secretly march into
Csyawaga on Aug. 4 and capture the city
Ia the event of success they would lombard
aud destroy all the public buildings and
President Leiva's residence, and in addition
empty the Golfers of the treasury and burn
all the important papers they could lay
their hands on. Spies were in communica-
tion with Nuila daily and the plan was we'll
laid and would have overthrown the gov-
ernment had 1t not been for the informa-
tion received. The news was dispatched to
President Leiva and others and large
force is now guarding the capital

TIRES NOMINATIONS HUNG Up
The Reasons Why the Senate Failed to

me REASONS Why the Senate Failed to
Confirm Them.
WARRINGTON, Aug. S.-The three left
over nominations of President Harrison,
which were hung mp in the Senate, are all
interesting. The most important is that of
George W. Miller, to be internal revenue
collector at Pittsburg, made to please Chris
Magee and Representative Dalzell, and
hung up 10 please Senator Quay. Boss
Magee and Representative Dalzell have
already asked President Harrison to appoint
Mr.. Miller collector dd interim. Senator
Quay has said nothing, but the President
understands that this would be considered
highly Offensive TO him. He will solve the
problem Of this dilemma on his return, and
MAKE trouble whichever way he solves it.
JIM HILLS CASE.

rival for the mastery in Mississippi was
nominated for postmaster at Vicksbur1
after having served in the interval between

MOORE MAY BE oUsTED.

Negroes Demand ths Removal of
WeshinRton's Chief OF Police.
WASHINGTON, Aug. S-William Moore
(colored) Of the Washington Light Infantry
corps is major and superintendent of police
for the District of Columbia, having been
appointed as a democrat by the commission
ers of the district under the last admins
tration and retained on account Of his etfi-
ciency and popularity by the new board OF
administration. The local republicans have
long been restive because they could not
get this s., 500 office for one of their num-
Der. Recently, 1t appears from the statement
OF one of them made public to-day, they
have succeeded in enlisting the powerful
did Of Attorney General Miller and
are now confident that though his efforts
they will have Col. Moore out and a
republican named Frank Aldrich In Oct. ].
MILLER BRowBEATEN.
~hhe Attorney Central was induced to in
terfere, according to this statement, by
threats made by Frederick Douglass
and other colored republican leaders that
they would hold q mass meeting and de-
nounce the administration for retaining as
chief Of police democrat and further, a
democrat who throughout showed a con-
stant antipathy toward the colored race.
In support OF this latter charge they alleged
discrimination against colored people by the
members OF the police force. The Attorney
General promised, they say, that Col.
Moore should go and accordingly they did
not hold their mass meeting. But if Col.
Moore does not go they will carry out their
threat
