The Kitvlugs of Some of "l ucle Want's" Peaee-Makern. Washinotos, Jan. 29. The navy de partment has not been officially ad vised of the arrival of the Ranger and Alert at San Diego, and was consider ably surprised at the report of their arrival in view of the fact that the conimaaders of the vessels had orders not to touch in at San Diego before the :51st inst. A telegram has been sent to the commanders of the Ranger asking for explanations. It is the expecta tion now that the Ranger will be ordered at once to Bueneventura, Co lumbia, where a revolution is afoot, and the Alert will be ordered to con tinue her cruise along the west coast of Central America to watch American interests at points where conditions are disturbed. The Atlanta, on the east coast, has been ordered to remain in the vicinity of Colon until further orders, instead of proceeding, as orig inally intended-, to Carthegenia. Xk.vv Oki.f.ass. .Jan. Hon.

The will involves an estate worth 120,000,000. Governor O'Ferrall Charged With Not Co-Operating With the Courts to Prevent Vice and Crime. Warhintgx, Jan. 29. Judge D.M. Chiches ter, of the Alexander and Fairfax circuit lrginia, in nis cnarge to tne grand jury at the opening of the semi-annual term of his court, had much to say concerning the law lessness prevailing in the neighborhood of Jackson City and the Alexandria Island and St. Asaph race tracks. The judge openly criticised the failure of Governor O' Ferrail and Sheriff Veich, of Alexandria county, for alleged failure to co-operate with the court in the suppression of crime and vice in this neighborhood, which, he said, was the most lawless in the State of Virginia. The judge criticised the law. recently passed by the legislrature, permitting the sale of liquor at these race tracks. In conclusion he com mended the matter to the earnest and cere ful attention of the jury, instructing them as to their powers and "insisting that they should do something to clear Jackson City, St. Asaph and Kosslyn of their present character.
