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.

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

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

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

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.
