st. Petersburg advices state that the duel
between Generals Fock and Gorbatoffskl has
been vetoed. It is reported that Admiral
Nebogatoff will challenge General Stoessel
III the prison yards. The Gar has issued an
Imperial Ukase pralsing and thanking the
garrison of Port Arthur for 4 defense which
astonished the world by it's tenacity and the

New York, March 20th-Despatches from
Rome give contradictory reports regarding
King Victor Emmanuel's attitude towards
the marriage of the Duke of the Abruzzi
with Senator Elkin's daughter. The Corri-
ere Della Sera says the bride will be created
Royal Highness in her own right, giving her
sons the right of succession to the throne,
but, otherwise remark that the Duke is only
half royal himself, that he is not eligible for
marriage with any European Royalty, and
was elevated only by King Humbert's in
diligence. The Count ofa Turin is in a 81
milar position, and King Victor is powerless
to do what tA4 Corriere asserts. It is
thought more likely the Duke alone will
retain his rights and wife be merelyDuchess.
Dispatches from Port au Prince state that

Consulate, and viii nuke no agree nent
with him b1t will fight to O finish If h. re-
turns. General Nadr1au declares that the
arrested persons were compelled to sign an
admission that they were taken with arms
in their hands, but this admission was
untrue; after he signed it he sought
asylum and the executions followed. The
refugees unwilling to leave Haiti are seeking
to be included in the guarantees by the
powers, as other refugees have been jmpris~
oned and shot after leaving their asyl-
UNI, contrary to engagements. The
British cruiser Greasy and the Unit
ed Stat s@s.cruiser Des Moines and g%unboat
Paducah have arrived. The French cruiser
Destrees will sail for St. Thomas on Sunday
with refugees from Gonaives, the German
cruiser Bremen will take the refugees from
the German and Spanish Consulates to Kings
ton, and the Hamburg American Liner Ba-
varia is taking those from Port de paix. Hayti
alleges that the French Consul at Gonaives,
M. Lancelot wrote the letter which Firmin
sent to Coicou, but this lacks confirmation.
Some suspects have been shot under mistaken
identity. 1t is expected the warships will
remain during President Alexis term.
