Abercon haa resigned the Vice-Boy-Ship
of Ireland. The Duke of Marl

The Times, in its leader, declares
that if Russia refuses the armistice, or
is the means of its refusal, she becomes
the enemy of Europe.
A Berlin correspondent of the Times
says: Italy in her alliance with Rus
sia has in view, also, the acquisition
of Tunis. A recent telegram from Vi
enna says an understanding between
Russia and Austria oa the Eastern
question is considered certain, not
withstanding contrary rumors.
A Reuter's telegram from St. Peters
burg says : The rumors of the Czar's
contemplated abdication is officially
denied.
A Reuter telegram from Paris says :
In consequence of the explanations
which have been exchanged between
the Powers.it appear8 probable that the
Porte's request for the appointment of
commissioners to arrange the details of
an armistice, will be acceded to. It
is expected that the military attaches
of the various embassies at Constan
tinople, will be appiontetl the com
missioners. A Daily News, Vienna dispatch an
nounces that the Italian Ambassador
in that city has been instructed to ex
press the regret of his government fur

are disposed to accept it.
Cettikji, Oct., 14. Montenegro's

for Ser?ia Servia wont Agree to
the Armistice.
London, Oct., 14. A Reuter's tele
gram from Paris, announces that Rus
sia objects to the six month's armis
tice, proposed by Turkey,', and de
mands that a fresh six week's armis
tice be imposed upon tha Belliger
ents. A Paris correspondent of the Times,
takes a sanguine view of the situation.
He says, doubtless, in consequence of
the Porte's conciliatory attitude, the
proposition in regard to the aarmis
tice will receive a unanimously favor
able reception.
A Belgrade dispatch to the Times
says : Fifty Russian officers, some of
whom have held high positions on the
Russian staff, arrived here yesterday.
A dispatch from Vienna to the Reu
ter Telegram Company, says none of
the great powers have yet given their
consent to the conditions of an armis
tice proposed, by Turkey. Russia re
gards Turkey's reference to the influx
of Foreign volunteers, as a direct in
dictment of her policy. Prince Milan
has confidently informed several of the
Foreign representatives at Belgrade,
that the conditions of the armistice
which refer to Servia cannot be taken
into consideration.
A Berlin dispatch to the Pall Mall
Gazette, says all the Powers, except
Russia, have received the Turkish ar
mistice proposal favorably.

Virginia Taft Likely to be Balked.
Washington, D. C, Oct, 14. W W
Corcoran has donated five thousand
dollars to enlarge the library of the
University of Virginia, through Post
master General Tyner.
The present applicatio l comes direct
to the President from Gov. Chamber-
ain, who asserts his inability to pre
vent domestic violence. Some parties
have intimated to the authorities, that
trouble will probably arise in the Sec
ond and Fourth Districts of Virginia,
and suggests that the marines should
be held in readiness, and a company
of troops sent from Fortress Monroe tol
Norfolk. In giving this last item, the
authorities withhold the names of per
sons making the suggestions. There
are indications that Judge Taft will be
overruled in his disposition to act on
such a suggestion.
