WASHINGTON, d. c.. April Senator
Sherman and the Senate pages are not on the

LONDON. April 2.-The revelations in regard
to the treachery Of Edward Holden. formerly
Of the Royal Engineers. who is shown to have
BETRAYED tho plans of the fortifcations at
Malta aud Gibraltar TO France. have caused
the biggest fright that the British War Office
has seen in a generation.
The authorities have letters which passed
between Holden and French agent named
Poinet, showing that the plans OF Malta had
been sold and those of Gibraltar were about
to be handed over when Holden was ar
rested. Holden obtained his knowledge
of the plans while serving rs draughts-
man in tho Government service. Iuere
is no doubt that a description Of
every fort every battery and eyeTy gun IN
the Island Of Malta has been given to France,
and that the latter has now in It's possession
the most ample particulars in regard to the
armaments of all the defenses Of that huge
sea-glrt fortress.

The latest development in the baking

in the Legislature Of this state requiring

tency.
a similar bill was introduced last
April, but it is shrcwdly surmiscd that
the influence of interested parties pre-
vented its passage. The provisions of
the present bill are SO just that it prob
ably will soon become a law.
