w glte '$nl$ Jstocftn. ASTORIAJOREGON: te. C. IBELAXD Ertiior. WEDNESDAY Jaxuaiiy 15, 1879 Charles Y. Angell, the Pull man palace car company's default ing secretary, is now on his -way to this country, in custody of the company's agent. It lias 'been learned that he sailed from New York city on a steamer for Bremen, but went ashore at Southampton. There he obtaiiied a passport as a British subject under he name of Seymour. Thence he sailed for Rio de Janeiro, where he remained for several weeks. lie was very nervous and restless while there, and changed his hotel a number of times. At last he said that the climate did not agree with him, and that he should return to England. He took passage in a sailing vessel for Liverpool, but adopted the precaution of choosing a vessel which he knew intended touching at Lisbon. There he disembarked, and -went to a hotel on the Plaza do Sul, still passing under the name of Seymour. lie represented himself to be In ill health, and kept himself secluded, taking his meals -in his rodm. lie had allowed his full beard to grow, jmd further disguised himself by vcarinsr blue glasses. Had he nut made such extraordinary efforts at secrecy he '"might have remained Unrecognized; but his conduct brought him under the surveillance of the local police, and when the "descriptive circulars and photo graphs arrived, his identity was quickly established. Nine days -itfter his arrival in Lisbon he was arrested. Miss Callahan, who was a prosperous milliner in Boston, married TPatriok" Gain, whowas a lazy loafer. The match was not liked by the young woman's family, and her brother John, who was passionately fond of her, brooded over the matter until his hatred of Cain became a mania. At last he went into the couple's bedroom at night, shot Cain four times as he lay asleep, and then killed himself. Cain is recovering. Miss Mead ows' marriage to Elijah Lane, in "Waco, Texas, was displeasing to her family, ller two brothers in duced her to return home, and vhen Lane went there to get his Avife, she shot him dead on the doorstep. A less summary, but equally murderous course was taken by Henry Williams, in "Walla, Aliss., who poisoned his son-in-law in 'order 'to rid his daughter of a drunken husband. The captain of the "Warwick shire, just arrived at San Francisco, says he was compelled to leave the master and all the white survivors of the British bark Allen on the island of Loo Clioo. lie says: The natives are all under Japa'nese jurisdiction, but to my surprise I found the .authorities would not let the master and mates go unless 1 took all the crew with' me, which, not having sufficient provisions I could not do, and was compelled to leave all there. A new species of scandal has turned up in "England. A lady of rank in London undertook to pay a tradesman's bill by presenting his wife at court, an hondr of which she Was iiiost ambitious. At the last moment the Chamberlain found crut who she was and refused to receive her. The ladv savs she performed her part of the condi tion. JThe tradesHianJiassued for The World's Doings. Voluminous Telegram Boiled Down lo .Merc "Whispers of the "Wires. The senate passed the indian appropriation bill on the 10th. Senator Sargent introduced a bill to permit VDakota to become a state on the l'Oth. Joseph Burhoft and Louis Livingston, dry goods dealers in New York, have made an assign ment. Liabilities, S100,000; real assets, 47,000. Smith & Forbes, boot and shoe manufacturers in Boston and Char lotte, N. C, have made an assign ment. Liabilities about 125,000; assets, nominally, 100,000. A unique walking match is in progress at the exposition building, in ChicagoGeorge Guyson having undertaken in fifty-two 'hours to out-walk the stallion Hessinir Junior. A fie at Ainsworth, about twenty miles south of Chicago, on the Panhandle road, Thursday nirht, destroyed the Union Pen dering company's establishment Loss, S5,0d0; half insured. Eastern markets generally arc quiet. Flour is active, steady. Wheat is fair, export demand for spring, and firmer. Barley is neg lected. Pork dull, but held high er; old.7 507 75; ncw,$S 75 Advices from fort Sill state that the indians there have been greatly discontented Tor two months, and that recently two thousand of them started south-J ward, and were sbon heard from as depredating upon the ranchmen. Mr. Gladstone has a daughter who is familiar with the place of every work in his library, and the run of its contents. "When he de sires a relerence, sue instantly fetches the book needed, and points to the passage required. The New York freight market remains very dull, and there is no prospect of improvement, as the time for shipments to meet the spring trade is about over. In fact, the market is likely to be come more quiet, as shippers are gradually leaving this route, and making contracts with the railroad. Portugal is now building the most important line of railway thifc, is at present under construction in Europe. It is called the Bcrra Alta railway, is 125 miles lonir, traverses a rich and populous dis trict, and forms a long-desired con necting link between Lisbon and Paris. Ifr is estimated to cost 5S, 595 per mile, of "which, 11,125 will be paid b- the government. The secretary of the interior, on the 8th instant, affirmed the action of the commissioner of the general land office in denying the application of Peter Dt Jorup, to enter a tract of land in the Olym pia district, Washington territory. A dispatch from Rome states that negotiations are now carried on between Cardinal Nino, papal secretary of state, and Bismarck direct, without the intervention of the nuncio at Munich. Bismarck's professions are friendly, but the impression prevails that little more will be obtained from him unless the socialist bill proves insufficient. It is generally beleived in China that the principal points Ch'ung Xung Pr,o, the embassador now on his way from Pekin to St. 1 Petersburg, is instructed to insist upon are tlio surrender of -the por tion of Hi now occupied byvus sia, and the surrender of Baven Hu, the leader of "the insurgents in the late 'insurrection in eastern Turkistaii.tmd the withdrawal of the Russian boundary 500 li, about 1GG -English miles, in the rear of its present position. The first in volves the restoration of Kuldja to the Chinese in accordance with the czar's promise, and will give rise to protracted negotiations. The second, it is safe to say, -svill never be granted, and unless the two em pires appeal to arms, the latter de mand will prdbably be comprom ised, each party abating a portion of its pretensions.
