ENGLISH TROOPS ADVANCING
IN THE SoUDAN.
Khalifa Has a Force of 10000 But
Forty Miles Distant-English
Force of 10000 Men.

Wady Hamed Aug. 25.-The whole An
glo-Egyptian expedition has arrived here
and the advance is now commencing to
Hajid, where final concentration will be
made for the march on Omdurman, 40
miles distant which will occupy two days,
If the khalifa desires to await attack at
Omdurman, as now appears likely. Ref
ugees are arriving daily from Omdurman.
They all agree that the khalifa means to
fight. They report that he has 10000 men.
The attack is expected to occur about
extending three miles, with the white gun
boats and an innumerable feet of native
boats presents picturesque sight to-
night.
General Sir Herbert Kitcheners move
ments so far is brilliant operation. Some
weeks age he announced his intention to
concentrate his forces at Wady Hamed
on August D. He arrived there today.
Wady Hamed is a village 10 miles above
Metemneh and between 90 and 60 miles
from Omdurman. 1t is at the foot of
the long sixth cataract. the head of which
is at Shabaluka. Considering the difficult
les of moving $4,000 men and impediments
over the desert and along the Nile under
a blazing sun. the achievement is proof
of the splendid organization of the expe-
dition and augurS well for the final over
throw of the khalifa's power.
Major General Archibald Hunter COM
mands the Egyptian forces. which COM
prise two-thirds of the expedition and
which critics agree now form capital
fighting material. Major General William
Forbes commands the British forces.

RETURN OF SPANISH TROOPS
HAS CAUSED LITTLE EXCITE
MENT IN SPAIN.
Will Receive Portion of Their Nine
Months Arrears of Pay-Convo-
cation of the Cortes.

London, Aug. 26.-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Standard says: Moth
ing can better illustrate the country's
WEAKNESS and disillusion than the
small excitement caused by the return
of the repatriated troops. OF the 225,-
GOO men who have left Spain for the
Antilles since March, 1895, $4,000 have
perished in Cuba, $4,000 have been sent
home invalided and the remainder are
returning to be disbanded, after receiV
ing a portion of their nine months ar
rears in pay.
This clever stroke of policy on the
part of the government Will, 1t is De
lieved, avert the dangers that other
wise might have existed of the discon-
tented army being made the tools of
military and political intriguers and
CarliSts.
There are 43 generals and 5000 other
officers on the active list. For these 1t
is proposed that the number in line
regiments shall be increased. The gov
eminent has literally provided hospit-
ais and other accommodations Tor the
returning troops, and private subScrlp-
tions are pouring in from various parts
of Spain also for the assistance of the
sick soldiers.
The Carlist and republican papers
and opposition organs of every shade,
including the conservative and indie
pendent journals, openly show delight
at the convocation of the cortes. 1t is
their firm belief that the days of the
Liberal government are numbered.
They also announce that the opposi-
ton considers that its hours of reck-
oning has come. The opposition will
not allow the government to close the
session as quickly as Senior Sagasta
fancies or may desire. His opponents,
they add, are determined to discuss all
the acts of the cabinet before and dur
ing the war, and there will be pro-
longed debates.
Some papers are even laboring under
the delusion that the cortes can dis
cuss the contemplated instructions to
the peace commissioners. A part of the
session will be devoted to ways and
means The treasury is already be-
coming very empty. Even many of the
friends of the cabinet consider the con-
vocation of the cortes a mistaken act
of weakness fraught with consequences
which Will prove indescribable and in
convenient, both in home politics and
in relations with the United States.

SALISBURY AND THE QUEEN
RUMORED THAT THE PREMIER
THREATENED TO RESIGN.
But the Circumstances Tend to Dis
prove the Report-No Important
Negotiations on Foot.

London, Aug. 25.-The dispatch
cabled from London to New York to
the effect that Lord Salisbury, before
leaving France informed her majesty
the queen, that in the present critical
state of the relations with Russia, he
must resign, unless her frequently ex-
pressed veto upon the prosecution of
diplomacy to the point of war during
her lifetime was withdrawn and he
was given an absolutely free hand and
thereupon the ministry made definite
proposals to Russia. which in effect
amounted to an ultimatum, is an
elaboration of the current gossip of the
clubs and the sensational weeklies and
is obviously impossible to confirma-
ton or denial. Circumstantial evil
dence all goes to disprove the state
ments.
Lord Salisbury has been spending
his vacation since parliament adjourn
ed in France. Sir Thomas Henry
Sanderson, permanent under secretary
of state for foreign affairs, and other
most important officials of the foreign
office and likewise the Russian am
bassador to Great Britain, NJ de
Staal, have been on the continent for
long time. Apparently there are no
important negotiations afoot
England abandoned the open door
policy because Russia closed the door
in her face, as has been pointed out,
and retreated to the policy of spheres
of influence because it is necessary to

A BLUE LAW CRUSADE
Arrests at Cleveland For Doing
Business On Sunday.

Cleveland, o, Aug. Pa blue law
crusade had its climax today in the
arrest of n. HeXter, a news dealer; j..
C Newman, a cigar dealer; William
Clark, restaurant keeper, and A. NJ.
Baum, restaurant keeper, for doing
business on Sunday in violation of the
common labor law.
The trouble started last winter when
the Retail Clerks association caused
the arrest of several clothiers who kept
their stores open Sunday forenoons.
Then the Retail Grocers' association
proceeded against those in their bust
ness who kept open on Sunday fore
moons. The Retail Butchers associa-
ton decided Tuesday night to cause
the arrest OF all in their line of trade
who kept open on Sunday. Now comes
the wholesale and retail clothiers with
an attorney and the determination to
arrest all who do business of any kind
on Sunday, except that which the law
holds to be necessary. This includes
cigar stands, soda water stands, news
deDots and all mercantile establish
ments. The arrests of today, caused
by the clothiers, will be followed by
others. The Retail Grocers' associa-
ton met tonight and by an overwhelm-
ing. majority decided to continue the
prosecution of all retail grocers who
sell on Sunday.

ARBITRATION C9MMISSI0NERs.
Ray Not Be Able to agree On the
Tariff.

Quebec. Aug. 25.-The arbitration
commissioners assembled for their
Joint business meeting at the parlia-
ment building today. The meeting was
absolutely private Although little is
said by the commissioners, there is
considerable discussion in the Cana
dian newspapers and among those in
directly connected with the conference
concerning two points upon which the
commission may fail to agree.
Statements and interviews have been
printed in the Canadian papers to The
effect that the American COMMISSION
ers will insist that the present prefer
entail tariff Of the Dominion in favor
of England must be done away with
before any concessions on the part or
the United States will be made. Under
the present condition Canada admits
products from England at % per cent
less than the duty imposed upon pro-
ducts from the United States and other
countries.
Congressman Dingley has been
quoted in the Montreal papers as max
ing such a statement, but he denies
having made such an assertion, or any
other statement of like nature.
1t is said also that Sir Wilfrid Lau-
riers position may become an obstacle
in the way Of the commissions success.
The assertion is made that Sir vii
frid steadfastly declines to consider
the arbitration or adjustment of any
one matter under discussion unless the
Americans win agree TO a final settle
ment of all the questions. It is said
that he viii insist upon q complete
cleaning up of all the differences or
nohine at all. But ali this is the talk
OF newspapers and outsiders. Neither
Sir Wilfrid Laurier. nor the commits
