Tha selection was no surprise here, as it was known that a majority of the trustees wonM favor Professor Adams' election.

Highest. Lowest.., Closing N*w York, July 1C —The Sun has the following from Washington: The Evoning Star fire* prominence to the following: The president has called a halt. A littlo over a week ago the order wont out to nil the departments that all dismissals and appointments C• fill pieces not vacant must •top at once. A week ago a stop was put to all the work in the appointment division of the treasury department, and the appointment elerk told that no more commissions were to be made out or papers considered until further orders, and a lot of changes that were contemplated by him were killed hi the conC*p-ion. Commissioner of Pensions Black was sent for personally by the president, and was given to understand that the offensive partisanship cry hal become .-too indefinite in its' meaning, and that no to ore changes in his official force were to .be made until there was a thorough understand in? of the subject on the part of the president. The result was that the oWerrf for a number of changes in the pension office were countermanded, and everything put at a standstill. The president, it is understood, then had an understanding with ;the heads of the postofflce and othor departments, declaring his policy to be to stand by the civil servioe reform declarations in bis letter to Curtis and in his address on the 4th of Merch. "Romorval for cause" he held to mean tbar, and not removal with excuses. The result Is that the ax has been stuck In the b]pck for the past week, and is still there. How far the thing is to go can be merely surmised, but it is believed that the president is decidedly in earnest, and does not intend that his declarations shall be ignored. London, July 14-—Sen. I«wd WoleeMy arrived in London accompanied by Lord Charles Bereafoul of tha navy, Qm Sir Redvers Bullar and other Soudan heroes. There was no formal programme for a public w elcome, but there was an immenae a»- of civilians and of military officers in mufti at the railway stations, and all the returning office™ were received with hearty cheer;. Lord Wolseley is in high feather, and looks ten yoart younger than when he Btarted out on his futile expedition for the relief of Khartoum and tho rescue of Gordon. He was asked forthis opinion regarding tho reported death of El Mahdi. He said ho discredited the report in view of the source whence it came, which he had found thoroughly untrustworthy. If, however, it were true it would hardly improve the situation iu the Soudan. In all cases of organise'! brigandage the death of the chief brigand by disease or treachery is the signal for the springing up of innumerable petty, chiefs, who carry on the-, warfare On their own account. This would prove true in the present ease, and the result would be a condition of anarohy which would be fuMjf as disastrous to the Soudan and as threatening to iigypt as tho pjeeent condition of affairs. Lord Wolseley Mill holds firmly to the belief that an autumn campaign against the Mahdi is not only practicable and necessary, but will be found unavoidable. He insllts that as it now the middle of iuly no time should be lost in cutting out the work of the campaign and in selecting the field of battle, as otherwise this important advantage will be lefL to the rebels. He has ail. appointment Cor a conference with Lord Salisbury, and wiil do ni-s utmost to impress his views upon the premier.

East Saginaw, Mich., July1* 14.- The strike at East Saginaw and Bay li'y is growing more serious every, hour. A week ago, when the mill men at Bay City struck for ten hours a day as against the eleven hours they were putting in, it was thought that the strike was an affair of a day or two at the most, and that when the mctf found the mill owners firm they would quietly return to work. The expectation of an early and easy viotory for the mill owners would probably have been fulfilled had it not been for Representative Birry, the Knight of Labor repreaentat:ve in the state legislature, who, as soon as the strike assumed shape, took the personal leadership of the men and incited them to hold out for their rights. Under Barry's leadership the strike rapidly developed into alarming proportions. Other gangs joined the strikers, uutil several hundred men were out. GEN. GRANT'S GREAT IMPROVEMENT. He Recover* the Cm of His Voice—His The question as to whether or not there should l*o a postponement of the election was then submitted to the board, when it wajs decided almost unanimously that a president should be elected at this meeting, and on the first ballot Professor Adams was elected by a vote of 12 to 8. At the opening of the meeting the New York alumni committee, through Mr. Frankenhelmer, made an earnest plea for the election to tbe preddency of some man of recognised executive ability, and asked a postponement for further deliberation and discussion, on the ground that the alumni of New York unanimously opposed Mr. Adams and favored Gen. Walker. Mt. McGbkoob, July 14.—Gen. Grant kept his room all the afternoon. He could could use his voice, and seemed Inclined to do so without much restraint until toward evening, when he returned to the use of his pad. He was quite cheerful. Members of the family talked with him occasionally. Rev. -Dr. Newman sat and chatted with him quite a while, and Dr. Douglas was in and out of the sick room. He wrote for about an hour altogether. The endeavor of all was to make the day as free from disturbing events as possible. The patient's pulso has returned to about the normal rate. The policy now is to keep the general's life as quiet and free from possible, so as to save the strength he has regained, and encourage still mfre improvement In the afternoon, when Dr. Shrady arrived, the general had returned, to his writing pad in order to save his voice, and see if he could not use it again. He,was in good spirits, and the prospects for a restful night seemod good. Pulse Is NormfU. It has further leaked out that during the recent investigation into the management of the finance departmont a defalcation of *12,- 000 was discovered In the accounts of a trusted official. Departmental circles at Ottawa are greatly agitatsd, as it is uncertain where the next discoveries will be made or upon v»hom suspicion may fall. Charges of loose management of several departments have been freely made of late ana uppear to bo justified by circumstances. Until recently bonds to the value of over 11,000,000, all signed ready for issue, are said to have lain in a vault to which every officer of tha treasury department bad access without any check. As a result of a defalcation in the assistant receiver genoral's office at Halifax last year, the government has now to make good (24,000 to the Bank of Montreal, which bad made advances to the dishonest officials. At the bead of 1,000 strikers Barry forced all the mills on tbe river to close down, including some that were running only ten hours a day, and the ranks of the strikei-s being swelled in this way and by laborers in the salt blocks, which were likewise forccd to close down, tho two Saginaws and Bay City were virtually in possession of a mob which the slightest incident mijht provoke into the wildest excesses. This was the situation on Saturday night when the mill men, whose property was unprotected and who feared what Sunday might bring forth, caused it to be given out that the demands of the strikers would be granted. This wa3 heralded with shouts of victory by the strikers, who paraded tbe streets with music and banners proclaiming that they had won. Not so, however, for while this was going on the mill men and the authorities of the three cities were summoning to the aid of the cities the militia force* at the state and Pinkerton men from Chicago. TheJSaginaw rifles were got under arms late a£ night and quietly took charge of the city waterworks, which the strikers threatened to demolish. The Flint Blues, with their Gatling gun, were ordered under arms and preparations made to send them to the scene by a fast train on the Flint and Pere Marquette railway.Trustee Warner, of New York, then made a long argument in favor of Gen. Walker as the man best raited to "fill President White's place, and supported his argumont by personal letters recently received by him from such men as Noah Forter and President Barnard and other prominent educators. £S£7.^?!n«: I Owner  Closing  Oct. 4S « -■ •«»—opening.

ANOTHER SERIOUS 8TRIKE. Oits—Opening, K'ghrtt  Lowest  Closing  Gen. Wade Hampton Gives His Account of the ltattle. CnAHLBSTOW, S. C., July 14.—The News an'l Courier publishos a long letter from Gen. Wade Hampton correcting errors in the recent articles of Gens. Johnson and Imboden, touching the first battle of Manassas or Bull Run. Gen. Hampton shows that tho Hampton legion, 600 strong, which ho commanded," arrestsd the victorious columns of Sherman and Keyes, who were driving the Confederate l'orces back, and that thff legion so delayed the Federal advance as to enable Confederate re-enforcements t) be brought up. The News and Courier gives an elaborate review of the battle, the history of which, it claims, must now be rewritten. Its conclusion is that Hampton was to Jackson at Manassas what Jackson was to the whole Confederate left. Hampton saved Stonewall Jackson and Jackson saved the army. It was the magnificent fighting of the legion under terrible odds that gave Jackson time to bring his troops into position. Had he not had the opportunity to force the Virginians, who afterwards stood "like stone wall," the battle would have been irretrievably lost. The opportunity to form these Virginians was given to Jackson by Hampton and his men, and was given by them alone. The Wabaali Officials at Moberljr, Mo., Call Upon the Sheriff. St. Louis, July 14.—The situation at Moberly is growing critical, and serious trouble is feared. There are a number of nonunion men in the city ready to go to work, but the demonstrations and threats of the strikers frighten them. A large number of Winchester rifles arrived at Moberly and are now stored in the Wabash shops. The Wabash officials called upon the sheriff of Randolph county to assist it quelling the disturbance. The sheriff said he could do nothing; that it the marshal could not quell It, other means should be taken. Mayor Foley appointed thirty-five extra policemen. The mayor says L j will use every effort to keep the peace and prevent the strikers from interfering with non-union men, and if quiet is not restored the state militia will be called upon. It is generally thought that Governor will act with more caution than he did in the Bed alia affair. Several strikers have been arrested and given jail sentence. The Knights of Labor Of Kansas City passed a series of resolutions denouncing Judge Krekel, of Kansas City, fbr jailing strikers. Great excitement prevails in Moberly; the council is in session* two or three times a day. The poople are generally with the strikers. The wives at the strikers pelt the non-union men with eggs, stonee and clubs, and more serious conflicts are likely to fallow. Po«*—Opening- Higbr t.....7T Lowest  Closing ..

The Pinkerton men, 100 strong and armed with Winchester repeating rifles, navy revolver* and clubs, arrived in the early morning, and then the men felt that they were reasonably secure against mob violence. The appearance of the Pinkerton squad on the street created the most intense exuitement among the strikers. It was the first intimation they had received that outside assistance had been called upon. When they learned of the military having btnn called out the indignation of the men knew no bounds. Representative Barry pledged his word that if the Pinkerton. men and militia were withdrawn there would be no trouble, but said he would not be responsible for what might occur if the demand was not complied with. The authorities declined to entertain the request. The strikers assembled at the Knights of Labor hall soon after Barry's conference with the authorities to hear his report and advice. The meeting was secret, and it is not known what course he advised the men ■.o take.  Ottawa, July 14.—The fishery question was considered by parliament. Mr. Weldon charged the government with dereliction of doty in delaying negotiations with a viewto securing a new treaty. He showed the great loss that would accrue to Canadian fishermen by the recont arrangement, by which all fish going into tha United States would have to pay heavy duty, .vliiio Americans were allowed to fish in Cauadian waters without paying for ifee priv'!eje. Sir John M actional! charged Mr. Weldon and othen' members of tho Opposition with having placed in the hail Is of the Americans information which would seriously prejudice any future negotiations for a now treaty. He held that, having sounded both Blaine and Frelinghuysen, he hod found them both ofipoBed to either arranging a new fishery treaty or extending the commercial relations betwoen the United States and Cannula. The British minister at Washington had pow ascertained that President Cleveland was desirous that there should be some broad commercial treaty arranged by which the products of the two countries could be advantageously exchanged. Favorable legislation was expected at the next session bf the United States congress. 'ihu Pall Hall Gazette, in response to requests for its opinion as to the nature of(the change required in the present Eagiish criminal law, makes sovoral importoat suggestions. It advocates: First, an addition to the criminal act raising the age at which leinale children may legally oonsent to sinful conduct from 13 years, the present, to 10; second, extension of the law prohibiting soliciting to both sexes; third, denial of any additional power over women to the police that will be aimed at the suppression of crime and not at the suppression of vice—that is, complete lejal liberty for voluntary immorality between adults contracting ou equal terms, but rigorous repression of such criminality in all cases in which tlio parties are under a&e, or the elements of full, tree and intelligent consent are absent; fourth, greatly increased stringency in the laws against procuration."

After the verdict had been made known as to the manner in which Cooper met his death, the crowd around the jail set up a yell and seemed happy as though thoy were on a picnic. A rush was made for the sycamore tree upon which Cooper had been hanged, and soon its green leaves could be seen in hat bands and pinned to coat laools.

The commissioner cites at length from leading decisions of the supreme court, and concludes as follows: "Following these decisions, bjl the authority of which I am governed, I must hold that a withdrawal of land by the commissioner of the general land office, when, as in the present instance, withdrawals from settlement, entry, or other appropriation are not required by law, are effective only as information in defining the limits within which indemnity selections may be made in a proper tune and manner, but are not operative as 'a prohibition of settlements and entries within -such limits under the public land laws prior to the time when a lawful selection byj the railroad pompany has actually been made."
