Other geu d'araues have been detailed to preserve order among the mountain people sur rounding the castle, the mountaineers being loyal adherents of the king, and in a dangerous temper because of the State's conducts toward him.

WAseauNoTox, June 12-The statement made yesterday that the Senate had recon sidered the vote by which the bill prohibi ting members of Congress acting as attor neys for land grant or subsidized railroads was erroneous. Senator Hawley's motion to reconsider it was entered but not acted upon. Respectfully Declines It. The secretary of state recently received a cable message from Minister Cox at Con stantinople saying that the Sultan of Tur key desired to send a wedding present to Mrs. Cleveland, and asking that it be re ceived.

Tarbulent Great Britain and Ireland. LoxDox, June 12.-The Pall Mall Gazetie says it cannot understand how Mr. Parnell could construe as he did the interview with the Earl of Carnavon. It was, adds the Gasette, the obvious duty of Lord Carno von to talk to the loder of the, people he proposed to govern The Gladstone ministers seemed to be ashamed to converse with Mr. Parnell unless closeted secretly with him,I Mr. Hugh C. Childreas, home secretary replying in the House of Commons yester day evening to Mr. Dtobain, Conservative member for Belfast, who asked if the gov ernment would take steps to prosecute the police whb hot down inhabitants of Bel fast durinthe troubles of the last few days, stated that the government was not informed that there had been any miscon duct on the part of county pol'ce in Belfast The secretary said that the government had the fullest confidence in the royal irish constabulary and did not intend, while the present disorder continues, to remove them from Belfast and substitute the military. ------------ The Belfast Riot. BaILUAST, June 11.-An Associated Press reporter who was detailed to remain on the scene of the riots, at 4 o'clock yester day morning as follows: "I remained among the rioters all night- Th4 greatest damage in the way of wrecking and shoot ing was done along the Shankhill and the York roads. The fighting in both thor oughfes was desperatel and continuous. The mob wat composed of the lowest ruffi ans. The o of the police had ng terriors for atab! nla asny cases I saw he mob iabStwhelmiiig numbers press ip agie he bayonets of the police and drive them back. The only instance in which the police drove the mob at all, so far as I observed, were those in which the otieess a ,aam , lMass fired at dosel range :id', l of buekshot. These the riotrs Au$ ot stand against, And they were driven back, but even -under such galling ire the rioters would drop to the pavement and rush upon the police while they were reloading. It is impossi ble to describe the state of terror under which the respectable Catholic people of Belfast are now living in consequence of the prevalent anarchy of bigotry. The bravest of them hardly dare to venture out of doors in daylight even. I know that scores Ofpeople were shot down during last night's riot. I saw ten taken to the hospitals yesterday morning. It is feared that every faneral of a victim of the riots may provoke a fresh outbreak. The law abiding citizens demand of the govern ment the appointment of a special com misson to inquire into the causes of the whole disorder. TiE STATE LEGISLATURE.
