Mr. Corbin struck the stone wall with
frightful force, and was terribly Cut and
bruised about his head, and one of his legs
was broken and crushed so that the bones
protruded through the flesh. He was able
to speak when Mr. Woodbury, his farmer,
wlio was pear by, reached him, but he
soon lost con scioiisness and remaine I i n
that condition most of the time until the
end.
Austin Corbin, who was often called the
"King of Long Island," was born ih New
port. N. H.v July 11. 1327. He was gradn-1
ated at Harvard law school in 1849. . After
practicing law at Xevport for a while, in
1851 he remove'1, to Davenport, la., where
he lived for fourteen years. It was
while there that he entered the banking
businesswith a success that.wjis followed
by others of grea ter magnitude! He was a
rich man when he. came to New .York in
18G5 and started the banking house of Aus
tin Corbin & Co., which continued the
mortgage business which Mr. Corbin had
started. " . . . . " '-."
Soon after 1865 he became interested in
railroads. His rst trip to Long Island
was made with his sick child. He saw the
natural advantages and.; understood tliat
the island must become an outing place
for millions in the nearby cities. At that
time the Long Island roads were isolated
systems, badly managed and in constant
financial difficulties. After securing the
control of the principal line, Mr. Corbin' s
one thought was to develop a great system
which should brinlg ail roads on the island
under the one management. This ambi
tion he attained in -the, early part of- this
year, when h ?-became the .owner of the
majority interest in the one system. which
now controls iransportatioh on the island.
It is difficult to estimate Mr. Corbin's
wealth. At In ewport there is a villa set iii
the center of an estate lj400 acres in ex
tent. Beyond this there is 'a game pre
serve which takes in many f ormer moun
tain fiirms in Newport township, extend
ing over 10,000 acres. About this last there
is a high, strong fence, and within the
barrier elk, moose, buff ald and deer roam
at will. -It was Mr. Corbin's desire to
make this one of the greatest hunting pre
serves in the world, and this idea was be
ing rapidly realized. For many years he
has had agents in every country in the
world looking for rare animals.

Firket, Egypt,1 June S. This pointt
taken by Egyptian troops at an early hour
yesterday morning, and their manner of
acquitting thoinselves in this, the first en-r
gagement of the Nile campaign, has given
satisfaction to the British officers in com
maud of them.! The ''Egyptian forces left
Akixsheh, the Egyptian outpost. Saturday
evening. The distance is twenty miles,
and it took the whole night to accomplish
the march.
. The march was pursued in absolute si
lence. In consequence, the arrival- of the
Egyptians at the dervish camp tookj the
enemy completely by surprise. They quickly
rallied, however, and rushed to their arms.
They stood to their positions and made a
stubborn defense of the camp for an hour
and a half, during which theitj was hard
fighting. -
The dervishes were finally put to
by a flank movement execute I by thei cav
alry. The forces: of the khalifii took flight
towards Suardaj pursued by the c;ivialry.
Suarda is nearly a hundred miles south of
here, but it is strongly held by a force of
several thousand dervishes. H j
Reports so far received indicate that the
loss to the dervishes will amount j to a
thousand men. Among those killed is
Emir Hammuda, who was their jcom
mander, besides many important chiefs.
The Egyptian loss was twenty killl ind
eighty wounded. j
The dervishes made a hcrd fight, with "a
large. force of riflemen, and not onlyj held
their ground,: but attempted to adyance
with a perfect roar of musketry, which
was repulsed by Shrapnell and Maxim
hail and steady converging volleys, Which
shattered the; mud, houses of. Firket. The
position of the. dervishes was stojrmed
from the north. anl the remnant ft tho
dervishes made a running fight through
the hills towards Mognir. -.
Hamniuda- vra.s in command of the larger
force at Suarda, He was ( of the tribe of
Habbania. and was well known to Slatin
Pasha while the latter was a captive jof tho
khalifa in the soiidan. Slatin has de
scribed him as a great favorite with the
khalifa, who promoted him to the rank of
emir because he left his- own tribe When
; the insurrection first broke out to! servo
the khalifa personally. I
i It is probable that the taking of Firket
was decided upon owing to the doubtful
strength of Akasheh as an outpostj, sur- ,
founded as it is by low hills, the taking of
wHrch would make Akasheh a deathj trap,
i The finishing of the! railroad line ; from

expedition was determined upon. By ex
tending it tb Firket! the wrorst cataract
will be'turned, and early advantage . can
thus'be taken of the rise in the Nile at the

forces express great gratification at the
conduct in yesterday's fight of the Egyp
tians, about whom some doubts hav been
felt,.and the Soudanese, who have! been
looked to with confidence 'for good Jfight
