London, April 23. - Gladstone

afternoon that the government had
received no confirmation of thebatilo
supposed to havo recently occurred
bet'ween Russians and 'Afghans with
the victory for the latter. 3Er. Ellis

ing shipped to Cape Town, south Af
rica, for the use of British armed
cruisers and men-of-war in event of
an outbreak of war "between Russia
and England.
A special dispatch from Tirpul,
dated April 20, says: "The Russians
occupy Akheltepe, and are actively
at work making a military road from
Penjdeh to Herat.
The government has accepted an
offer made by New South "Wales ,of
their contingent now in tho Soudan,
for service in India or elsewhere, as
may be required by the military au
thorities. The commissary department of the
Indian army has completed nrrang
ments for funiishiug transportation
and provisions jn India for two army
corps. The first corps consists of
13,000 British and 16,000 native
troops, with 3,000 camp followers and

dition that if war is declared the own
er of the boat becomes purchaser of
the cargo.
St. Petersburg, April 28. Five

Berlin, April 2S. The Rational
Zcitung says Germany remains neu
tral in tho present crisis in the rela
tions of England and Russia, and that

diation. It also denies that the czar

that the chances for peace had di
minished. Paris, April 28.- -A special dispatch

ity by force.
New York, April 28. Tho Sun's
London special says: It is just
twenty days since the massacre oil the
Kushk and the capture of Penjdeh
became known in London. The soft
ening touch of time has done won
ers, as Gladstone knew it would. It
is undeniable that Gladstone believes
that England's only chance of peace
lies in gaining time. The premier's
constant dream just now, and his
highest ambition, is to retire in a
blaze of glory, after having finally
and peacefully settled the central
Asian question.
New York, April 28. The Herald's
cable special from St. Petersburg

favored by tho czar. Active negotia
tions are" being interchanged by St.
Petersburg and. Paris, with the ob
ject of vigorous common action
against England. It is claimed that
a Franco-Russian alliance against
England would bo in violation of the
treaty entered into by the czar-last
year at Skiernewice.

During tho railroad boom Win. O
Allen purchased from C. F. Specht a
large quantity of land nearly oppo
site Kalama, the purchase price be
ing some Sin.OOO. Allen, it seems,
thought the railroad company would
transfer passengers across tho Colum
bia river from tho point where tho
land he bought was situated and that
therefore quite a city would grow up!
iucii. xm; v,uiuipiuii iui nwuiuii'iisua

brilliant hopes were badly shuttered.
When he purchased tho property Al
lea gave notes in payment, for some
reason neirlected . to nav a balance
drio of the original purchase amount'!
mg to 15,000. Specht brought suit
agaiust him to recover the money in
the state circuit court and got a
judgment. Allen then appealed the
matter to the supremo court. Yes
terday a mandate was received from
that body which provided that the
judgment of the lower court was af
firmed, and that plaintiff recover
from defendant 81,745.70 with inter
est from May 31, 1SS1, at niuo per
