The Reports of the Inspection of the
Militia Received at the War Depart.
ment.
Adjt. Gen. Ruggles has decided that the
reports of inspection of the militia of the
different states shall be made public here
after. thereby reversing the practice of the
last administration. 1t was then held by
Adjt. Gen. Williams and others Of equally
good judgment that the object of the in
spection was apt to be frustrated by the
knowledge that the report was to be pub
ished in the newspapers; that the only
way to insure a true and unbiased account
of the National Guard was to have 1t known
that the Information obtained on that SUBJ
ject should be treated confidentially. 1t
was alleged that all the militia inspection
they were commendatory Of everybody and
everything. 1t was too much to expect. it
was suggested, that army officers would be
fearless who knew that their criticisms
would be published and reach the citizen
soldiers who had been courteous during a
week or two Of summer encampment.
The inspector general advised to the con-
trary. He insisted that the publication of
the reports was instructive to army Off
GERS, as well to the officers and men of
the National Guard organizations The de-
partments secrecy counted for nothing, he
said, for copies of the militia inspection re-
ports found their way, presumably from Of
fcial sources, to the state officers, and alb
stracts of these reports have been published
in the local papers. The War Department
has practically concluded that the publi-
cation Of the reports will do more good than
harm. and will hereafter treat them ac-
cordingly.

A Report That the English Premier
Will Soon Resign.

Participate.
GENERAL FOREIGN MATTERS.

LONDON, Jan. 31.-The Pail Mall Gazette
declares that it learns from a source in
which it has every confidence that Mr..
Gladstone has finally decided to resign Of
fee almost Immediately.
According to the Pail Mall Gazette Mr.
Gladstone will announce his decision in
letter to the queen before the reassembling
of parliament.
Mr.. Gladstone's decision is said to be due
to a sense of his advanced age and the
great rtrain the late arduous session i'm
posed upon him. Finally, it is said, Mr.
Gladstone is deeply disappointed at the re-
lection of the home rule bill.
The Pail Mall Gazette adds that it is un-
derstood that domestic pressure has con-
siderably influenced Mr.. Gladstone in his
decision.
A Central News reporter showed the Pail
Mall Gazette's article this afternoon to
G. w. Spencer Littleton, Mr.. Gladstone s
secretary. He declared that he knew moth
ing about the report that Mr.. Gladstone
would shortly resign office. He added that
he would telegraph the statement to Mr..
Gladstone, who Is now at Biarritz France
and that he would inform the reporter as to
the reply he received from the prime minis
ter.
The Pail Mall Gazette's article caused
much excitement In political and other
circles in London. The government offices
know II the statement was true.
As matter of fact, the statement is not
regarded seriously
The Pail Mall Gazette however, announced
the fact in enormous headlines and saying
that grave political crisis has arisen and
that a dissolution of parliament is proba BILE.
The Pail Mall Gazette also says that the
opposition which the parish councils bill
met with had contributed to Mr.. Glad
stones decision.
Not any of the cabinet ministers are in
London; but at all the government offices
and at the liberal central offices at West
minister the report is discrsdited.
Lord Rosebery, the secretary of state for
foreign affairs, says that he knows nothing
about Mr.. Gladstones intention to resign.
At the foreign office and at other places
where Mr.. Gladstonc's intentions might be
known the Pail Mall Gazette story was
discredited.

injured.

Tho First Championship Games to b.

fIayeO On april I0.
The championship season of the National
League and American Association Of pro-
fessional base ball clubs for 1894 will open
Thursday, April 10. as has already been
stated in The Star. This is settled fact,
the authority for which is no less a per-
sonase than President Young himself.
When President Won der Abe learned that
1t was proposed to open the championship
season April 20. the same as last year. he.
in conjunction with John T. Brush of the
Cincinnati club. suggested the feasibility of
opening the season week earlier, as 1t
was argued that the earlier opening would
be generally beneficial to the majority of
the league clubs, and President Young ac-
cordingly started out to find an expression
of feeling on the subject. He stated that
rearly all the league clubs favored the
early opening, consequently he is preparing
the schedule of championship games on this
basis.

The Majestic and New York Hurry

LONDON, Jan. Sion January "a a
most interesting race across the Atlantic
was started. The steamship Majestic Of
the White Star line crossed the bar at
Sandy Hook at 4:26 pm, bound for Liver
pool via Queenstown, with seventy-eight
bags of letters and ninety-one bags Of
papers. or one hundred and sixty mine bags
of mail matter in all.

ed the bar with one hundred and seventy
eight bags of letters. four hundred and for
ty-six bags of papers, five bags of supple
mentary mail and one dispatch pouch, or
six hundred and thirty bags of mail matter

A dispatch from Queenstown this morning
says that the Majestic passed Daunts Rock
at Az m, having accomplished the pass
age across the Atlantic IN six days, six
hours, forty-seven minutes. during which
she covered distance of 1882 knots.
The Majestic reported at Queenstown
that on the 18th and 3Uth she experienced
strong hard gale. with a heavy westerly
sea. Her record to Queenstown made in
september, 1881. Is five days. twenty-three
hours and six teen minutes, while that Of
the New York to Queenstown, made in
August, 1892. is five days, nineteen hours
nfty-seven minutes. The Queenstown rec
ord Is now held by the Campania, which

minutes. The Majestic this morning only
landed the Irish mails at Queenstown and
started for Liverpool with the English
