Slocum yes terday, he having just returned from Mexico. lie said: "Iain somewhat interested financially iu Tehuautepec and desired to see how work was ad vancing. The first twelve miles from the eastern terminus are completed and forty more are graded, y the 1st of July fully fifty miles will have been built aud will be iu running or der. Mr. McAlpin has selected a har bor lor the western terminus aud will begin to build from that end imme diately. A large quantity of rails and rolling stock will be shipped hither In the next fortnight. The road is being built entirely by New York capitalists, except that the com pany has a subsidy from the Mexican Government of 12,500 a mile, to be paid as the road advances, aud this has been paid regularly so far and probably will continuo to be paid. While I "was in the City of Mexico the sum of $550,000 was the amount of the appropriation bill to provide for the payment of the por tion that is expected to be built dur ing this year. Grant's road begins at a point bu the coast about fifteen miles below Vera Cruz, who don't like the idea of a rival seaport being built up so near her aud possibly some olhcr poiut may bo selected. The proposed course from there is di rectly west to the Pacific. No por tion of this road has yet been built. It has no subsidy. 1 think Grant will succeed. He is popular and has some bright people around him among the Mexican people of great influ ence. A Conclusion Reached. Washington, April 29. Senator Dawes, chairman of the republican caucus committee, had a comer nee with the President to-day. The Pres ident is emphatic in urging the con sideration oí executive business, es pecially the confirmation of nomina tions. A number of pending nomina tions are to fill vacancies the exist ence of which is somewhat embarrass ing the work of the departments and as soon as the Senate resumes execu tive sessions the President has a num ber of nominations to make, some of which he has been requested by par ties selected for offices to hold back while the deadlock continues, as the gentlemen do not like to hayc their names hung up in the Senate. There is no doubt but what the committee will arrange for an executive session next Tuesday to consider the Chinese treaties. This will take two or three days and in the meantime the com mittee will arrange for action upon nominations. The prevailing senti ment among the republicans seems to be in favor of letting the Ilobert.son uominatiou go over until next win ter, but the caucus committee does not: feel authorized to single out this case as the courtesy of the Senate de mands that it be left eutirely with the Senators. Wounded Officers and Escaped Horse Thieves. Del Norte, Col., April 29. Night before last Sheriff Brouough, of Sag uache, and Mr. Samuel Goodaker, of Itussel Springs, left on the western bound coach to follow three horse thieves who have been stealing horses and plunder near Saguache and this place. Yesterday they over hauled aud captured the three about ten miles west of Wagon Wheel Gap. The men were, as was supposed, en tirely disarmed, but must have had weapons in their boots, as they made a break in tho night, shooting the sheriff in one arm and Goodaker in both arms. Two ef them escaped without their eoats. The third one did not oiler resistance, and was started for this place this evening. The other two are supposed to bo near the Gap, in the foot hills, and will doubtless be forced into the road soon. Different parties are Rafter them. Dr. Pittman started from here this evening to take care of the wounded. Ulaacs. Chjcago, April 29. A special to the Evening Journal says ; This morn ing the whole husiuess portion of the village of Mount Morris, Mich., burn ed. Losses were very large. The town was almost wiped out. The house of James Parsous, near Charlotte, Mich., burned last uight. The family slept tiil the roof fell in. Mrs. Parsons and a child are proba bly fatally burned. Wool Market. Boston, April 29. Wool during tho past week ha9 been more quiet, manu facturers taking 1,800,000 pounds, most domestic, including all grades and qualities. There is no improvement in prices and no prospect of any im provement at present. Manufactur ers are bound to purchase cautiously as the entire clip of the country comes upon the market during the next two months, they feel that with such abundeut supplies of old andjnew wool on hand that prices should rule low. Ohio and Pennsylvania fleeces have been selling at 38 to 40 tor N; 40 to 41 1-2 for XX, 42 for "X and above. Buyers are not disposed pay over 40 for good XX fleeces. Michi gan, Wisconsin and New York X fleeces have been sold at 37 to 39 and dull. Medium and No. 1 fleeces range 40 to 46 as to quality, some choice lots of Ohio sclliug at 44 to 46. Comb ing aud delaine fleeces have been very quiet and remain unchanged. In California wools there has been sales of 370,000 pounds, principally fall, ut 16 to 25 per pound; and in unwash ed aud unmerchantable fleeces the sales have been 425,000 pounds at various prices, as to quality, includ ing a lot of fine unwashed at 24 to 28 ; good to medium grades at 28 to 32. Pulled wool has been in fair demand at 30 to 38 for common ; good western supers at 40 to 48; good and choice eastern supers 35 to 40 for X pulled Foreign wools have been quiet with sales of 100,000 pounds. Cape at 30 to 31 1-2. Several lots of Montevideo sold at 28 to 30 1-2, and small lots of Mediterranean carpet at various prices. That Executive Session. New York, April 29. A World's Washington special says : It is said on apparently good authority, that the committee agreed opon yesterday in the Republican caucus will consist of Dawes, Ingalls, Jones, of Nevada, Cameron, of Wisconsin, llill, of Colo rado, Scwell aud llollins. The com mittee will have three day before another session of the Senate, aud the talk among tho Senators to night is that an executive session will be al lowed for the consideration of the Chinese treaties Tuesday next. The The Republicans will be very much mistaken if they suppose that the Democrats are going to submit quiet ly to the dictation of their caucus committee. Whenever the executive may be ordered the Democrats intend to consider nominations as well as treaties and the pominatious of Matthews, Chandler aud Robertson, will be industriously pressed for con sideration regardless of the effects towards Republican harmony. Filicide and Homicide. Grand Island, Neb., April 29.- Christian Koch, eugine wiper for the cugiue which ruu3 between Grandls laud and St. Paul, upon returning to St. Paul this morning wcut direct to his home and found the door locked, lie looked in and saw one of his chil dren in bed and his wife lying with blood around her upon the floor near the bed. lie got the sheriff and they together went in aud found his three children in bed aud his wife on tho floor, all Avith their throats cut, and a razor and table near by. The chil dren were aged four years, two years, and six mouths, respectively. It is thought the mother first murdered her children and then committed sui cide. The coroner's jnry rendered a verdict in accordance with the above facts. No reason is given for ihe rash deed, and there is no evidence of in sanity. She left only the tw words, "Good Bye," to explain. Military. New York, April 29. Snys the Herald'' s Washington special : The dissatisfaction caused among certain army officers by information of the division of the Gulf, to which Sho tieid has been assigned, will probably be overcome by a change in the boun daries for the purpose of better en forcing military discipline iu the Ter ritories and along tho borders, and to reach a full understanding in regard to tho division of military authority between Sheridan's and Schofield' commands. Sheridan was to-day or dcred to Washington by telegraph to report to the Secretary of War. Upon his arrival there will be a conference between the Secretary, Gen. Sherman, (en. Sheridan and Adju taut-Gene ral Drum. A Kentucky Volcano. Louisville, Ky., April 29. A volca no broke out on the farm of N. A. Jamagiu, in tho southern portion of Ohio county, one day last week. Mr. Jamagin was at tracted to tho place by gas as it escaped from the earth, and found on examination that the earth was seemingly on fire. . He held corn shuck over tho place and the heat caused it to ignite. Many per sons havi- visited the place, and it is a source of wonder to all. Murder. San Francisco, April 29. A (lis patch received from Colton, San Ber nardino county says that near Resting Springs, Inyo county, about four days ago there were two whites and one Chinaman murdered while asleep in a cabin by unknown parties. No particulars have been received. The murderers are supposed to htive been Chinese or Indians. Hung for Ilonilcide. Windsor, Vt., April 29. R Carr, for the murder oi.m. Giant Locomotive. Philadelphia, April 29. The Times of yesterday says ten iron giauts for the Pennsylvania Railway Company will be built this summer at Altooua. They will be much larger and more powerful than the ordinary paseu ger engines, and are to be built for the particular purpose of making up time on that portion of road where there are long stops. The monster ocomotivo known as "No. 10" was built as an experiment, and the result has been satisfactory, ihe driving wheels are six feet 6ix inches in diam eter. Catholic Clergy on the Land Bill. Dublin, April 29. The manifesto of the Catholic clergy is snbstautially an endorsement of the report adopted by the recent Land League Conven tion. It is warmly approved by the adyocates of the tenants, although it is thought it is hardly probable the proposal to elect Laud League asses sors to administer the law to be sanctioned by the Legislature will bo conceded, that being the first step towards tho establishment of the American way of making Judicial ap pointments by popular vote. Mining; Consolidation. New York, April 29. There is a movement on foot to consolidate the Central Arizona and Cascade Mining Companies. This will be done by an increase of the Central Arizona 6hares, for which it gets the eighty stamp mill, all of its outstanding obli gations and ono thousand feet of well developed ground adjoining, which is said to be equal to tho Central Ari zona in value. It this bo accom plished tho Central Arizona earnings will be available for dividends. Colorow Says the Troops Must do. Cheyenne, Wy., April 29. -A special to tho Leader from Rawlins, Wyo ming, says Colorow, the Ute chief, and seventy-five lodges of IJtes, are camped within three miles of the post on White River. Colorow told Col. Moore, commanding the troops of the Sixth infantry, to leave with all the troops within five days. The action of the Indians indicates trouble. Col orow is next in authority to Jack in the bund of White River Uto. Consevativas' View of Land 15111. London, April 29. At a meeting of the Conservatives to-day it was point ed out that the Land Bill would not only deprive the landlords of their rights in dealing with their property but would take away a large portion of that property without giving any compensation. Couldn't Compromise. Little Rock, Ark., April 29. Ef forts to amend the differences be tween the pro and autl-amendmcut wings of the Democratic party by compromise last night failed utterly, and both conferences adjourned sine die. Itp solved to Suppress. Paris, April 29. A prominent di plomatist at St. Petersburg reports that the Czar and his counsellors are disposed to adopt rigorous suppress ive measures having no example in Russian history. Washington Whispers. Washington, April 29. A New Y'ork Washington special to an even ing paper says an administration Seu- ator said that at least the Chinese treaties would be acted upon when tho deadlock is broken. Califoruians are getting anxious about it. The democrats did not want the treaties confirmed, for if they fell through by lapse of time they could blame the re publican party for it and the state would go steadily democratic as the people were united upon the idea that Chinese immigration must be limited. It is believed that the Democrats have in their minds a scheme to oiler amendments to the treaties that will provoke discussion and result in the delav of action or non-confirmation Washington, April 29. The total number of nominations SLut to the Senate by tho President to date, aud awaiting action of thn executive ses sion, is 217. These nominations in clude Wm. Phelps, Minister to Aus tria; Wm. II. Robertson, Collector of Customs at New York ; Mr. Elmer, Second Assistant Postmaster Gen eral ; Wm. A. Gricr, Third Assistant Postmaster General ; Mr. Ililt, As sistant Secretary of State ; Mr. Prier, Commissioner of Indian Affairs. Ex-Senator Eaton, of CouuecticuL, who is now in Washington, advises the Democratic Benators to stick to their present position concerning the election of Senate officers until 1883. He also advises them to vote against the confirmation of Judge Robertson, agulng that, if they enable Conkling to defeat Robertson, a breach will be created in the Republican party of New Y'ork, which will give the Suite to the Democrats . Ex-Senator Dorsey has been active all day endeavoring to onset theallea gations connecting him with the Star route ring to picar himself of the charge. It was 6tatcd to the western associated press reporter to-night by authority direct from Dorsey that the latter hud requested Ihe Postmaster Genera to investigate immediately DorsoTS alleged complicity and that the 'Postmaster Gcueral admitted that lie could not find any evidence to Cnncct Dotrpv with flip riii" mul i General James will write a letter to morrow to the President (dating that nothing has been found against Dor eev. Ou tho basis of this letter Dor- sey will make his defense to ti,e pub lic denying that lie ever had any con nection with the Star route ring. Senator Vest returned this morn ing from Missouri having made ar rangements, he says, to remain here all tiiinmcr. The Republican caucus committee has beeu in conference wi:h the Pres ident to-day, and au executive session is certain to be held next week. There is bad blood between Dorsey and Brady personally, but those who still maintain charges against the Star route ring say it will result in aiding the pending investigation to unearth and expose all the ring's doings. The Franco-Tunisian Trouble. Paris, April 29. St. I lilain; receiv ed a note from the Porte raising the question of integrity of tho Ottoman Empire, in regard to Tunis, and stat iug that the Sultan, being the Bey's Suzeroine, he has influence over him which France does not possess, and consequently at a, single orcrofthe Porte the Bey might be made to make all amends to France, thus sparing the latter the necessity of coercive measures and risking diplomatic com plications. The note hints at depos ing the Bey in favor of his brother. France has, however, declined the proffered intervention, as she does not desire to acknowledge the Porte's suzeroiuty. Unsuccessful Attempt at Eviction. Limerick, April 29. An attempt to evict tenants at New Pallas to-day failed. Five hundred military and police were present, but the mob num bering five thousand men tvitli revolv ers shouted, and groaned, and stoned the sheriff and assistants. Tho police charged the mob several times but the bailiff's life being threatened, he refused to poiut out the houses of de faulting tenants. Another attempt to cvicc will be made shortly. Telegraphic Brevities; Silver Bars 1:12 1-2 in New York. The crop prospects in the Missis sippi valley are regarded as being promising. A special election will be ordered in South Carolina to elect a member of Congress in the place of O'Connor, deceased. Attorney General confirms previous opinions as to the legality of with holding letters addressed to managers of fraudulent lot tery schemes. The situation in Russia is regarded as very grave, inasmuch as the most intelligent portion of the population entertain views similar to those of the Revolutionists. A movement against the Jews has broken out at Argenau, West Prussia. A mob lead by a school teacher at tacked the houses of some Jews aud maltreated the inmates R. II. V. Kelly, cashier at the B. & M. R. R. headquarters, in Omaha, for the embezzlement of $3,800 was ar rested, lie admits his guilt. Cause, women aud wince. Andrew Partecock, Adam Urichs and John Martin were killed by the fall of a rock this afienio'ni in a tun nel of the Susquehanna coal company at Nanticoke, Pennsylvania. A family named Weaver, eight iu number, living near Dct-ri.ii, on an island in a large marsh are all down with malignant scarlet fever. They were found destitute, without cover ing and hungry. The Theatre. There was a good audience to greet the McWade combination, although not so large as the company deserved. A strong comedy bill was presented, "Paddy Miles," "Toodlos" and "Rich ard mit III." Robert. McWade dem onstrated to our people, that is, what report had credited him with being, a versatile actor. As "Timothy Toodles," "Paddy Mile" and "Rich ard mil dree eyes," he afforded fun for the crowd. The characters ex hibit a wide range, English, Irish and German, and not once did he make a misstep. As "Toodles" his drunkeu ness was, according to the hoys, nat ural, and he kept the house iu a roar. The burlesque of Richard III was ex cellent. The company was strong, stronger even than in "Rip Van Winkle," showing that although good in legitimate drama they are one and all first-class comedians. ' "Paddy Miles" afforded the Keenest enjoy ment, und the Irishman of McWade was perfection. Our people will have another opportunity of witnessing this farce, as it will be repealed this evening. This being the last appear ance of McWade, he will certainly have a crowded house. The "Knight of Arva, or, Connor the Hash" wiil give this star an opportunity to ac quit himself well, and afford his strong support a chance to show their ability.
