$1,000,000 Loss in Guebec-The Pres
ent Sitaatioa in , the East The
London Turf Ike London : Stick
Exchange.
' Quebec, May 31. Probably, a tliou-
sand houses were burned. The loss is
at least a million.
Losdon, May 31. The Standard's
Vienna, special says the success Murael
to the Ottoman throne, is considered
mainly due to Russia instigating Ser-
via and Montenegro to immediate war.
Fxms, May 31. It is reported that
Lord Derby notified the Turkish am
bassador to England to be prepared to
accept the iAterhational conference.
The Montengrin Minister of War
informs Baron Rodeck that an offen
sive and defensive alliance has been
concluded' between Servia, Romania,
Montenegro and Greece,nd intimat
ed that Thessaly andlCrete would rise
in support of the movement in North
ern Turkey. Altogether, this situa
tion is regarded as drawing to a crisis.
The Porte had informed them that
there would be no armistice on the
Berlin proposition; the insurgent lead
ers declared they wonlU fight until in
dependence is achieved. The official
Russian Invalide seconded these move
ments by the declaration that Eog-
Jand's refusal to act with the Northern
powers cannot but bring difficulties.
Murael is pledged to the constitution
al government. "The French Govern
ment urges that the new Turkish Goy-
ernment has a tendency to a pacific
solution. Due Decoyes pointed out
to the Turkish Government that Mu
rael is entirely free from embarras
sing engagements, and his succession
would naturally induce a suspension
of hostilities. The armistice was in
no way inconsistent with,, tbe dignity
of the government. Tbe Porte i4irg-
ed to take advantage of the opportuni
ty, and immediately enter upon nego
tiations with the insurgents and make
the concessions judged equitable and
necessary, and thereby avoid making
them under pressure of the powers.
Prince Milan had advised the consuls
at Belgrade that he will issue a note
declaring that Servia has no choice
other than to lead the insurrections
or perish. A rumor is circulating that
Andrassy is about to resign and Herr
Traulmanns to succeed him.

Washington, D. C, May 31. In the

ed from Southern cities, remonstrating
against the. ratification of thejflawaii-
an treaty; so as to admit' nee free of
duty. They were referred to the Com

knowledge of Blaine's bonds getting

Mr. Mulligan ; Archer's book keeper,
testified that Blaine, as agentnego
tiated Fort Smith , bond? .and) after
wards took them up. He complained
to Mulligan of having lost money.
Mulligan said : ! "You could not have
lost mtrch, as you got 80 cents on the
dollar for seventy-four thousand." An
other teld Mulligan that Blaine's bonds
were sold to the Union Pacific by
Scot t. Th e transactions are co m plica
ted, and tbere is a great - struggle on
the part of Blaine's friends to restiict
the investigation within the scope of
the resolution.

SE!JATE.7-Spencer ' introduced a bill
attaching BuUook and , Lee counties,
Alabama, to toe middle district of that
State. A number of petitions wsre
presented, and private and pension
bills reported. The Japanese indem
nity was resumed and finally passed,
24 to 20. Adjourned.
House. Morry, of Louisiana, rose
to a personal explanation id reference
to the testimony given by Seelye, be
fore the committee charged with in
vestigating the Federal offices in Louis
iana; . He declared that all the state
ments made by that witness, charging
him with crimes and impugning his
Honor, and integrity, were false and
infamous.: Seelye's own evidence
showed that he was infamous, and he
had made a very weak attempt to
prove that he (Morry) wa3 equally so.
In the summer of 1875, this witness
had sent him an abstract of what he
called "a history of occurrences in the
Ball of 1874 in the State of Louisiana."
He had been West when this commu
nication had been mailed to him, and
oh his return to Washington he heard
that this man propoaed to make a pub
lication of that statement. He (Morry)
was aware that his seat in Congress
was to be contested, and he felt that a
publication of that sort would be pre
judicial to his interests, and that if by
paying Seelye a few hundred dollars
he could stop that current of abuses
and falsehood, he was justified in so
doing; and he therefore had done so.
In conclusion, he thanked the gentle
men on both sides of the House for
the expression of their confidence,
which they had given him since the
publication of Seelye's testimony. The
House then proceeded to consider the
Louisiana contested election case of
Spencer vs. Morry, and was addressed
by McCrary, of Iowa, who supported
the minority report of the Committee
on Elections, declaring that Morry,
the sitting member, is entitled to the
seat. After a long discussion, the
minority resolutions were rejected,
yeas 72, nays 100, and the majority
resolution, declaring Morry, the sitting
member, not entitled to the seat, and
Wm B Spencer entitled to it, were
adopted without a division.
Dom Pedro, the Emperor of Brazil,
the Empress and party arrived this
eveniag in the Pullman Falaee cars,
"Kenhesaw." and "Metropolitan" via
the Kennesaw and , Midlands Route
from New Orleans. Their entire South
ern trip was made without a mis-connection
or accident, and they express
themselves highly pleased with their
reception everywhere.
