IIunliiiKton NfKt.tiates With Tillartl fur Valuable Properties. Sax Fnixnsro, Fch. 21. Refttr rinu to a telegram from New YorU that stated it was rumored there that C 1. Huntington was negotiating with Henry Y illaril, president ! the Northern 1'acific Railroad Company, for the nurcliase of coal lands in Wa.ihingtoii, the Chronicle will say t3-morrow: ''Details of negotiations coul.l not be learned at Southern I'aciSc headquarters yesterday hut the truth of the report was contirmed by prominent officials there. Nego tiations for the purchase of immense tracts of the most valuable coal lands discovered in the Paget sundcouutry have progressed favorably and the trade will probably be consummated very soon. It is understood that the scheme contemplates the investment by the Southern Pacific Company of an amount reaching into the millions, The negotiations include not only the purchase of large ctal fields, but the building i a road connecting them with tid water at a ooint not yet an nounced. Whether this road will be built by the Southern Pacific or Northern Pacific company is also one of the Droblema of the situation at present. Another feature of the scnemc win be the establishment of a line of colliers between the terminus of the coal fields and San Francisco. The mmense amount of coal consumed by Southern PaciCc company necessitates putting forth every effo-t to secure the best and cheapest coal obtainable. Resides the advantage oi owning lis own suddiv. tne ooutnciu muut company will hn save 75 cents duty, which is now paiti on every ton of coal brought from Vancouver. BLAINE TALK8 TO CANADA. " Opening Kekring Sea la Uetnrn for I'rlvllegesof Jlanermen. Nkw York. Feb. 21. A special from Washington, to the mail and Express siys: It is reported tDat an understanding has been reached by Secretary Blame ana oirjuuau Pauccefote concerning the fisheries question. T ne results reacnea are that American fishermen arc to have the same rights in Canadian waters as Canadians enjoy in American waters. To secure this concession Blaine is reported to have agreed to the admission of British sealers in BehrinS sea cn the same terms that American scalers are permitted there. The secret.Tv, however, extends the privilege merely as an offset, and not as a renunciation of the marc clausuni policy, which he has at all times so positively maintained, GRANT'S OLI ItOOM. Curious History of nn Apmtmer.t in ' the A- T. Stewart Maiir-ion. Nkw Yoiik. iVb. 21. (Sptml Telegram.) Preparations for trans forming the Stewart mansion Into a club house for the Manhattan Club have brought to light tfce curious bistniv of one of its rooms. It will be remembered that General Grant and A. T. Stewart were in timate friends, and so whrn Grant wa9 elected preaident, Stewart had a room fitted up in hishanor. The original outlay was $50,000, and it was :urni?hed several times. INo one except Grant ever occupied it. tie had a key to the house and one to the room, and it wa9 kept sacred to his use. Since Giant's death it has not been open till afew days ago, when inspected by a committee of the Manhattan Club. Now democrats will shuffle over its velvet carpets and blow their clauds of tobacco smoke in the room where the famous smoking president eDjoycd h-s fragants TEMPERANCE VOTES. Contributcc' lv the W. C. T. U. "When 1 see a man going home with a gallon of whisky and half a pound of meat, that's temperance lecture enough for me, and I see it every a ay. I know that every thing in bis borne is on the same scale- gallon of misery to half a pound of com- fort. This correct estimate was recently piven by a colored lecturer in North Carolina. Dr. Symea Thompson recently lectured on "Alcoholic Inheritance" at Gresham College, and i? reported as saying; "We doctors are often tempted to wish that the human race could be propagated with as much ore as is shown in the breed ing ot horses." The lecturer fol Icwed with a really terrible list of the evils to which "Alcoholic subjects."' or the children and children's children born of drunk ards, are liable, not the least of which are insanity and every "if mental aberration. It was very noticeable, said the doctor, !iow much the moral character of the drunkard w:is distr "yed, and the same etIVct of the parents sin was trace: blc in his children. Again drink was the greiteit destroyer o id brain power in the wor'.d, and its rou'ts were wonderfully marii lestuil in the drunkards is.-ue. It was well uiMkrstood tl'.nfc tir r.'.; do- I stroyed self-control, :'.nl :i j;;t:nt necessity oI" the present day was the tr.iining f 1 ilnmk--rd' cliiitlrcn in st l!-(.u'r!.'" -Chii: tiuii lu tjuirer.

The fact is, that taking the brandy pre vents the. etjil-'to which they are inevitably exposed, from parsing out of the system quickly : indeed, taking the brandy keep? 'ha poison in the system longer than ir. would oilier wise stay. Dr. 1. . Kichaulson. The Atoruey-Gonerai f Kansas says, concerning the effect of pro h.bilion: "The country jails throughout the state are com para tively empty, and the number of convicts iu the penitentiary is growing less.' Tne "cigarette law,"' passed bv the legislature ct South Carolina, a: its recent session, makes it unlaw ful for any person or persons, by himself cr themselves, to :ell furnish, give or provide, any minor or minors under the age of eighteen years,with cigarettes, tobacco, or cigarette patter, or any substitute therefor; and that any person or persons violating the piovisious af this section, either in person or by agent or in nnj other way, shall be held and deemed guilty ot a mis demeanor' and upon indictment and csnviction therefore shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $100 not less than $25, or by im prisonment for a term of not more than one year nor lcs3 than two months, or both, in the discretion of the court ;onc-ha!f of the fine to be paid to the in farmer of the offense, and the other halt to the treasurer of the county in. which such conviction shall be Lad. Heavy Loss of Stock. iv -1 .......... . The loss of stock in this fctate this winter will probably be greater than any previous winter. The principal loss will be in tbc south and southeastern portions of the state. There are some very large herds in that section. Lux, JVIil- er & Devinc bad 00,000 head, Glenn & French, at Stein moun tain. 40.000 head. Rilev& Harding, at Harney Lake, 25,000 head, and there arc many other larg nerus. There arc tens of thousands of of sheep in the southern part of the state, of which a large per cent. will bo lost. This last, ccki snap is w hat has done the business for the poof beasts. There was four feet of snow on the ranges and it has thawed and settled to two feet and then froze) hard, and then more snow came and cattle and sheep, and even whole- bands of horses, just died in their tracks. In East ern Oregon and Washington the ranges have mostly been settled up, and the loss of fctock there will be comparatively small. Parker Bros, have just received nk-e lot of fresh ungrated horse-iii.-h. A FIT ENDING. The Montana Legisture Adjourns and the Hall Burned. Ol'KMNG THE UKHItlNC.

A Journal's Helera, Mont., special says: At 2 o'clock thi) morning fire was dis covered in the Granite block, and the building was completely gutted Tnere is no question but that the fire was caused by firecrackers carelessly thrown my members of the republi can legislature during the jollification over the windop f Dm legislative session. Ihe legislature's jturnal, books and papers were destroyed. The losses are: Helena Clothing Company, $25,000; American Express Company, $5000; T. II. Kleinchm:dt, on building, $20,000, and some minor Helena, Feb. 21 The legistnre closed its ninety days' session at mid night last night, having accomplished nothing. At the eleventh hour the democrats sprang a compromise prop osition on the members of the house, and asked that all ten contestants resign and that a new election be held. They were informed that the demo cratic claimants could appear in the house and enter a formal contest, which was refused. The unfortunate fire occurred just after the house had dispersed. About 2 o'clock flames were seen bursting out of the Granite block, the building where the sessions have been held. After a tevere light the fire was con trolho but the building completely gutted. The origin of the fire was at first ascribed to lire crackers, which the members had used at the close oi the session'. An examination of the premises and statement by attaches contradict this, however, and the fire is traced direct to incendiarism. The records arc safe. MiIIT ON CKOSSICI W1KKS.

Although improvement after im provement has be':n made to facili tate the working of the telegraph, yet tvny day arc coming other improvements which tend to lessen labor mid better the work. The recent adoption by the Western Union Company motors to gener utt! electricity in place of the !d time batteries ot copper, zinc and vitr:ol suppiies a current that is at once strong and will keep its strength in loi g as the motor is kept running. This current, wheth it applied to one wire or a hundred wires, remaius cjuu!!y strong. When wires set crossed this motor cm rent comes into new use, that of ascertaining what particular wires arc misplaced. In a durken ed room just off the operating room arc large shelves, holding incandes cent lamps, each lamp being con nected with a different wire, and numbered sccording to the number ! borne by the wire with which it is connected. As an example, when a cross occurs between wires 28 and 32, lamps 28 and 32 arc immediate ly lighted, and attention is at once attracted to them and the cross removed Formerly it was impossible to tell whether wires were crossed or not, unless operators trying to work Ihose wires should discover it by not being able to raiso certain offices, or by the bad and frequent ly intetrupted working of the wire. A BATTLE IN THE DARK. Exploit of Itussian Infantry While Fighting a Tnreoman Horde. A Russian General is Harper's for January. Tne Russian soldier dies at his post. I have seen him in winter on sentry duty on the heights of Shipka die standing, surrounded with snow, and transformed literally into r statue of ice; I have seen him die on the march, striding over the sandy desert, and y ielding up his last breath with the last Step; 1 have seen him die of his wounds on the battlefield or in the hospital, at distance of 3000 miles from his native village and in these supreme moments I have always found the Russian soldier sublime. In the Khiva campaign, the night of July 15th, our troops broke camp at 2 a. m. Hardly bad the first squadrons, with Prince Eugene de Leuchtcnberg at theif head, started along the road, thee suddenly the air trembled with clamor, howls and savage war cries from a crowd of several thousand men, and seven Turcoman tribes, men and women to gether, fell upon our troop. Our squadrons were Bung back upon the rest of the cavalry by force of the shock upon the infantry. The con fusion was terrible. We could not see the confusion, tfor it was too dark, but wc felt it. No more could we dis tinguish friends from enemies. At this moment 1 was crowded in the midst of a group of Cossacks, and my hor6e was pushed gently ami slowly, as if by waves, first one way, then the other. At first not a single shot was heard, but only the thad of saber j striking human bodies and the lamen table cries of the wounded. Suddenly there wis a flash and a glare iu front of us, and a violent explosion, then a second, and a third. The rocket bat tery, bc'i.n amcigt the brat tquad- I rone, had succeeded, thank to the I darkness, iu placing its stands right in the middle, of the enemy, to fortunately the rocket burst without rising. Probably they had got wet and the heat had split them. How ever the explosions frightened the Turcomans, and had the result of forming for a moment a little opening iu the mass of the combatants. Then 1 heard behind me an ener getic voice "Make up!" and two com panies of the second battalion of Turkestan riflemen passed through the midst of the Cossacks and dashed to the spot where the battery had taken its stand. I joined the right wine of the first company. "Fire!" re-echoed the word of command, and a discharge was heard eo uniform that it sounded like a single shot. "Fire!" I heard immediately alongside, ani another similar discharge followed. "Fire!" a little farther, and yet fur ther, and then further still, to the right of where I was, one volley after another, and at last, in the distance near the garden, wo heard the rolling of the cannon. Fight successive rounds were fired by the companies near when I was, and in piece times, during reviewes, I have often heard worse, firing. Between the second and third rounds a group of Turco mans dashed through the first com pany and killed four soldiers, but this did not prevent the regularity of tho firing. The company was there, standing firmly as if it had not even remarked this little episode, waiting, all attention, for another command to fire. When the sun, with the rapidity usual in the East, rose on the horizon, our troop was found to be drawn op in a semicircle, one company by the side of the other, in an order as exact aa if the maneuver had been executed in broad daylight and by special word of command. It wat the regular volley firing which had shown the battalions their places. If the firing had been confused and irregular the troops wou.d not have been able to discover their whereabouts in the general chaos. Iu the camp lay the dead and the wounded Turcomans and Russians. The chief of the detachment, General Galowatsdieff, and the chief of his staff were both wounded with saber cuts. In front of our companies was piled up a eom puct mass of fallen enemies, and in the distance the horizon was literally covered by the tall caps ff the ileeing Turcomans.
