At fit (fiiiir (iV'W Vol. six. Astoria, Oregon, Thursday Morning, July 26, 1883 No. 100. THE LATEST NEWS- By Mail and Telegraph. France and Esglnad. New York, July 22. A cable gram from London says: Public feeling in France among all classes bas become extremely bitter towards England and the relations between the two countries are be coming decidedly unpleasant and uncomfortable. The cause of it bas.been comprehensive, includ ing England's general hostility to each step taken by France in her foreign policy, the English attitude in relation to French possessions in Africa, Madagascar and Ton quin, the Pakenham incident at Tamatay and the De Lesseps im broglio. The two countries sepa ted widely when the Egyptian war opened and circumstances have since multiplied to widen the breach. The canal difficulty, the latest difference that has arisen, grows more and more complicated, and as an element of political difficulty in England promises to be the immediate occasion of the downfall of the present govern men. The Cholera Scare. London, July 22. Europe is again in a spasm of apprehension at the approach of the cholera. It has spread to Cairo and is raging there with a virulence that may well excite alarm, the deaths numbering hundreds daily, accord ing to a trustworthy observer, who doubts the truth of the govern ment returns and has investigated for himself. New reports come to hand of unspeakable horrors endured by the unfortunate com munities which the Khedive, in obedience to the orders of the English government, has selected t inclose with cordons of troops. Heretofore the Musselgian cities have met the plague with their usual fatalism and at the worst the people have gone into the desert until the pestilence has passed over. Now a British sanitary whim, having its origin in officialism and not in medical science, confines them to their walls and sends them neither food nor medicine. The rich escape by bribery, while the poor take their chances or rush on the bayonets of their guards to find a preferable death or be driven back into the pesthouse. Dami etta and Mansourah are charnel houses of putrefaction, full of un buried dead and starving thou sands monuments to the new civilization and to Egypt's new Pharaohs. The Indian mails are no longer landed at Brindisi, but are taken directly to England. There is consequently, a great outcry in France against the prob able transfer through- French territory, by way o.f England, of infected goods from the east. A Ckllcan Victory. Lima, July 22. To-day's Diu ria Official gives the details of the battle at Huanco as reported to General Lynch. Caceres had 4, 000 men, while the Chilean divrs ion numbered 1,000. Caceres' loss was from 800 to 1,000 killed and a large number wounded. Of the Chilean force 50 were kill ed and 104- wounded. Several Peruvian chiefs were killed. Carceres and Riebara were wounded. The Chileans captured 11 pieces of artillery and 800 ri fles. Tbc Yellow Fever. Havana, July '22.The num ber of deaths from yellow fever in Havana during the week ending to-day was thirty-nine. The butcher and a coal-passer on the steamer City of Washington died to-day. One of the two sick pas sengers who was removed from the steamer is General E. O. C. Ord, who is very dangerously ill. General Ord, with the others who. are down with the fever, haveTien placed in a good private hospital. XjrstaHtju Movement of Freddie aud ike Lily, York, July 22. The ex citemSnt'over the threatened depar ture SMts. Langtry has reached fevereat in dudedom. It is ru mored Ghat efforts will be made, to i St . delay, agflong- as possible the hour ot her sailing. Preparations aboard the steamship Alaska are being pushed with great energy, so that everything may be in read iness by Tuesday morning. The latest rumor afloat is that Freddie Gebhardt has sold his ninning horse Cole to Dwyer Bros., and has instructed his bankers to con vert 47,000 of his money into English sovereigns. It is further said that his valet has been busily employed in moving small articles of baggage from his Fifth-avenue residence to the steamship Alaska. The all-absorbing question at the clubs is, "will he go with her?" A report, which could not be traced to any reliable source, but which found many believers, said that Mrs. Langtry was now in New York city. One young gen tleman who professes an intimate acquaintance with the movements of the Lily says that the Alaska business is only a rnso to throw people off the scent, and that Freddie and the Lily will take their departure from the port of Boston. Terrible Mornis Los ot Life and V.rcai Destruction of Property. Minneapolis, July 22. A ter rific cyclone struck southern Min nesota yesterday, mainry along the line of the Chicago and North western railroad. The town of Elgin, in Olmstead count', was totally destroyed, every building being blown down or unroofed within one minute after the storm struck tho place. Mrs. Thayer was killed and several others wounded. AtT Owatonna great damage was done, especially at the fair grounds, where all the buildings were wrecked. Several persons were injured. One mile west of that place a passenger train was lifted from the track, turned clear over, and twenty-five or thirty persons injured. A. H. "Williams of Rochester, Minn., was injured in the back and chest; "W. Rogers, internally; L. Dodleman had his skull crushed. These are the only ones feared to be fatally injured. At Kasson the C3clone struck one mile west of the town, blowing down a schoolhouse and several other buildings in its track. At Mantorville three persons were killed and eight wounded, three fatally. At "NYukesha there was great destruction of property and one person killed. Milwaukee, July 22. Wash outs have occurred on nearly all the railroads in this vicinity, and, it is rumored, two trains were thrown from the track and some passengers slightly injured by being thrown from their berths. Mrs. Grace Faull was killed at Dodgeville in the downfall of her house, which was struck by a tor nado. Another woman is reported to have been killed at :i small town near Dodfjevillc. Buildings were blown down in overv direc tion and crops prostrated. TIic Cholera In Ejzrpl. Alexandria, July 22. The i sanitary commission has decided that all passengers must undergo medical examination before leav ing Egypt. The commission is considering permanent sanitary measures to be enforced against vessels arriving at Egyptian ports from Bombay. Deaths from cholera, Saturday, 331, in Cairo and suburbs; 33 at Mansurah, 17 at Samanoud, 2G at Mehalua, 03 at Chibin, 22 at Chobarat, 33 at Gticzh, 4 at Damietta, llatZifteh, 8 at Men zah, besides 34 in six villages. Cairo, July 22. A sanitary commission, consisting of General Sir Evelyn Wood, Baker Pasha, and General Stephenson will be formed immediately. The inhabi tants of the most infected dis tricts of Benlah have been sent to Turrah, ten miles up the Nile, and their houses burned. The officials t)f the department of the state domains have been removed to Helouan, a few miles further up the Nile, where they are en camped. A great quantity of tar is burned in Cairo every night. Cairo, July 22. Fifteen hun dred inhabitants of Bulak have re moved up the Nile. The owners of the burned houses will be idemnified. The natives oppose the removal of patients to the hospital. The disease is very sud den in its effects. People fre quently fall dead in the streets. The epidemic is spreading north ward as well as southward. The disease is spreading elsewhere. The mortality incroases hourly. The inhabitants suddenly driven out of their houses by the police during Friday and Saturday nights were huddled on board barges. Hundreds of them evaded the police and fled to the center of the city, taking with them their filthy bedding. Eight hun dred of them landed &t Turaii to-day. General Wood's troops' compelled the others to return. Since then there has been a case of cholera among General Wood's J forces at Turah. The deaths at Caria really numbcre'd 431 be tween 8 .. m. and U i ir. Sunda', besides the fearful mortality among the Egyptian artillery. The na tives of Abbazy are panic-stricken. The British oflicers have to bury the dead. I'lrr In an Kllit-Slory llnildluz. New Vokk, July 22d. The five upper floors of the Munro building, from 17 to 27 Yaude wa ter street, were gutted by fire this afternoon. The floors below were' flooded with water, and every tenant suffered more or less. Total loss, about $300,000. Many nar row escapes, but no lires lost. No one seriously injured. The build ing is eight stories high and the firemen worked at great disad vantage. Thirteen firemen were cut off by fire and smoke in the eighth floor. They were rescued by means of a rope. Nine other firemen, imprisoned on the same floor, were also rescued in a simi lar way. The firemen on tho roof were ordered off about a minute before it fell. The cause of the fire was spontaneous combustion. About 1,000 persons were em ployed in the building, but few will be thrown out of employ ment. olhInz (u Coa-.t or. London, July 22. The Tele graph referring to the interna tional rifle match, praises the courage with which the Ameri cans, who have cultivated military shooting for a comparatively brief period, camo to struggle with ex perienced shots. "It is possible," says the Telegraph, "that the Americans were defeated because their weapons were inferior at longer ranges. The English should not boast of their victory, as, at what may be considered military: ranges, they were beaten on their own around." Absolutely Pure- Tiiis powder never varies.
