(Though; Russia is believed to. have se eared 2Lustriaa neutrality, her military sit uftion in Turkey is now regarded as ex ceedingly critical. - ? jThe attitude of-the Turkish soldiery is reported to be more favorable than ever for an alliance with the English troops. (&. month ago Russian influence seemed tofbe on the point of carrying everything before it, but now the Porte seems more intractable than ever, and the Turkish army is so strong that the threats of the Russians h$ve little effect The Turks have en trnched positions, and are scarcely in ferior in number to what the Muscovites can mass, so that not only can there be no question of surprise, but even a most seri ous attack might be resisted sufficiently long at any rate until help could come from elsewhere. It is not therefore, considered likely-that they will accede to the evacua tion of Varna, Shumla and Batoum, even tolget the Russians away from the neigh boyhood of Constantinople. Gen. Todle beb, therefore, will have to display con siderable diplomatic talent in .the attempt to overcome all difficulties, while the con ciliatory disposition in St. Petersburg must be strong not to be worn out by the temporiz ing policy which the Turks, feeliag the strength of their position, will doubtless use with their well known consummate skill. . I London, May 3. ' yesterday's Bank of England return ia regarded as distinctly unfavorable, the pro portion of reserve and liabilities having descended to an extraordinarily low figure. The Bank ought to, according to old rules, raise its rate of discount. Reasons for its not doing so are chiefly ascribed to the fact that the money withdrawn from it is whol ly for international purposes. This morning's Financier says "should there be an active foreign drain of gold bonds, the minimum rate of discount might be fexpected to leap to five per cent in a week.'? The rate now is three per cent - There is a remarkable absence of news respecting the progress of negotiations be tween England and Russia, but the latest impressions are more hopeful. The Central News says the steamship Cimbria was chartered on the 24lh of last March by the Russian Admiralty for a year, to serve exclusively as a transport. The amount paid was 14,800. The value of the vessel is secured to the owners by Messrs. Mendelsohn, : the - Berlin bankers.

MTHNSESOTA. . Largest Flouring WUla lu the Conn trf Destroyed from Gas Explosion Seventeen Lives Lost, and Property Vained at a million and a Half. i f - ttMetneapolis, May 2. One of the great flour mills at this place exploded to-night, involving the loss pf seventeen lives, and a million and a half of property. The cause of the explosion was gas generated by the manufacture of patent llOUr. ,1. . ... T" The j&ouring mills which were involved in the disaster here to-night form a group which composes the heaviest concern in the State. I Chief among them were the two Washburn mills, the property of exGov. C. C. Washburn, of Wisconsin. The one in which the explosion occurred was1 the largest flouring mill in the country, andt the largest but one in the , world. It was built in 1870, included forty-one run of stone,- and was worth $200,000. It is no a smoking . mass of ruins, together with its companions on the "Platform." The destruction is complete so far as the' limits above named are concerned; and are serious within much wider bounds. The flames arejtiH- n ging in the ruins but are nnder control, and no further ex tensiod is feared. At this writing it is hoped" the dead will be confined to fourteen in the Washburn mill. - - f ' . St. Paul, May 2. The shock of the explosion at the Wash burn mill, in Minneapolis, was plainly felt here, and the flames were distinctly seen, creating an intense excitement throughout the city. Pieces of the charred roof, pa per,' small timbers and cinders were picked up, having been hurled in the air by the explosion and wafted here, nine miles dis tant, by the windf rt ;rr ) U '-.
