Rome, March 1.-THE new premier,
the Marquis di Rudini, presented the
new cabinet to the chamber of depu-
ties to-day.
In his speech announcing their ac-
ceptance of office and his own he denied

ment's acceptance of proposals Tor
peace with Abyssinia, and announced
| that the government would ask for a
credit of 100000, 900 lire for the purpose
of continuing the campaign until Italy
had obtained an honorable situation. He
rejected the policy Of colonial expan-
sion, but he said it would be dangerous
to Italian interests to renounce the ter
ritory of the Tigre.

A large number of teams were cart

day. The dumping ground is the large
open lot at the head of Haven street.
Several East side oyStermen whose
grounds in Quinnipiac river are along
the line where the New Haven Water
company propose to lay the big Salton-
stall main, are considerably concerned
over the prospect of parting with these
privileges. The present mains are laid
on the abutments of the Grand avenue
bridge and when the new draw bridge
is built they will have to be removed.
The Water company managers are con-
sidering a plan to sink the mains be-
meath the bed of the river, and over
the oyster farms of Alvin Ames, Will
liam Holt and Washington Cunning
ham. These oystermen held these lots
at high prices and it is doubtful if the
Water company can make a satisfac-
tory bargain with them. Mr.. Ames
says the profits of his little oyster farm
are equal to the interest on 100000.
Wherever the mains are laid it will be
necessary to sink them from ten TO fif-
teen feet below the bed of the river to
be out of the way of anchors and
| dredges. These mains are about four
feet in diameter and bring the Lake
Saltonstall water into the city.

safe to return. He was arrested last
night by officer Michael Cooney.

the officer on the side of head, the
blow deafening him for two weeks.
Judge Gable fined him $50 and sent
him to Jail for thirty days.

The Olympia's Magnificent Speed Run.

Washington, March 1.-THE recent
speed run of the cruiser Olympia be-
tween two Chinese ports was made the
subject of an official report which has
just reached the navy department.
Notwithstanding rough weather the
Olympia averaged twenty knots an
hour, and would have made twenty
three knots, according to her officers, in
smoother water, thus becoming the sec
ond fastest cruiser in the world. The
Minneapolis of our navy, which holds
the record, made her remarkable speed
of twenty-three knots and fraction on
her official trial, where every condition
was favorable to speed and where fore
ed draught was used. The Olympia ran
under natural draught. Her Roadway
was so great that her decks were swept
by the waves, and it was necessary to
slow down to avoid damage. As it was,
some damage occurred.

London, March 1.-THE bimetallists
in the house of commons this morning
canvassed the members of the house in
favor of the motion which it was ex-
pected that Mr.. Herbert Whitley, con-
sentative, would offer this afternoon,
declaring that the house is of the opin-
ion that the instability of the relative
values of gold and silver since the ac-
ton of the Latin union in 1873 has
proved injurious to the best interests
Of the country.
The resolution urges the government
to do all in it's power to secure by in
ternational agreement a stable none
tary par of exchange between gold and
silver The Lancashire members are
strong in support of the motion.
The Pail Mall Gazette expresses be-
lief that the government will accept a
modified form of Mr.. Whiteley's mo-
ton.

of DR.. Jameson and his fellow officers
in the Transvaal raid was resumed in
the Bow street police court this morn
ing.
AS at the previous hearings, the court
room was filled with members of the
aristocracy, friends and admirers Of the
defendants. Sir Robert T. Reid, M.
p, @. c., watched the proceedings on
behalf of the Transvaal government.
Associated with him was Sir George
Lewis, who prepared the case for Mr..
Parnell and the Irish party against
the London Times before the Parnell
commission. Among the spectators
were Lady Cranborne, Lady Rayleigh
and Mrs. Asquith, wife of the former
home secretary.
Sergeant Ruck, who took part in the
raid, was called to the witness box and
he described the progress of the ex-
petition into the Boer country.

Japnn,s PROGRESS. .

Washington. March 17.-Japans re-
cent great strides in trade and COM
merce from the subject of a long re-
port to the state department from
James f. Connolly, United States con-
sui at Hiogo. Mr.. Connolly tells of
the wonderful progress made by Japan
in manufactures, arts, etc. The open
ing up of China to the Investment of
capital and trade operations, accom-
plished by the japanese themselves
will eventually, according to Mr.. Con-
molly, prove perhaps the most serious
drawback to the future trade of Japan
He thinks that until the operations of
the revised treaties with Japan are
tested and presidents established as to
the rights of individuals and of prop
erty, the preference in all matters con-
nected with investments of capital and
trade pursuits will be in favor of China
Figures given in the report show that
the United States purchased about 40
per cent. of all Japanese merchandise
sold for export last year. American
merchandise sold for import shows q
decrease for 1895, as compared with the
previous year.
In making inquiries on the subject of
American trades, Mr.. Connolly was
told generally that the quality of AM
erican products was excellent, but the
producers did not seem to consider the
trade of Japan sufficiently important
to remodel their prices and freight
rates to the extent necessary to meet
the competition of the producers of
other nations.
