(By Cable to The Chicago Tribune.] Loxpox, March 3—5 a. m.—The passago of the Bland Silver bill over the President's veto has been commented on by all the lead- ing papers, which have, as heretofore, shown intense bitterness and unfairness in discuss- ing it, but the public in general * DO NOT SEEM TO HAVE BEEN ALARMED. Its effect upon the velue of our bonds has been scarcely appreciable, whatever changes that have occurred having been due to other causes. Going back nearly six weeks pre- vious to the passage of the bill by the Semate, I find that on Jan. 23 United States five-twenties closed at 1061, while English consols closed at 95}. Yesterday the American securities closed at 106} ond English consols at 954, Thus, while English funds have fallen §, American bonds bave FULLY HELD THEIR OWYN, and this is in spite of the fact that the Unit- ed States have been accused, not only by En- glish but by many Ameri¢an newspapers and financiers, of having partially repudiatod their engagements, and endeavored toswindle their creditors. The truth is that the English holders of United States bonds eannot be frightened by any such nonsense, and while the prophets of evil have been prophesying that American securities wonld have n great £all, they have AAINTAINED THEIBR POSITION in the most extraordinary manner. It should be remembered that there is hardly one se- curity on the London Exchango that has not fallen from § to 1} per cent in the same time. Tho effect upon silver is equally en- couraging to those who insisted on its re- monetization. From about 33 pence per ounco it has steadily advanced, in spite of Lheavy sales on Germany, until NOW IT STANDS AT 55} An equal incresse further will bring it on an equality with gold as & coin ; thatis, an American silver dollar will be neither better nor worse in any market of the world than a gold dollar. English holders of American bonds HAVE NOT YET BEEN FRIGHTENED into selling them to any noticeable extent, and it is quite likely that the men who bought them when the prospects of the United States were so gloomy as to make them worth less than 50 per cent of their face are not going to be greatly alarmed about so just and reasonable a measure as the remon- etization of silver. CONSTANT: Loxpox, March 2—A Constantmople special says great mistrust and uncasiness are felt re- specting the Kussian desigus on the Bosphorus. Tuey can occupy the Chanak forts ata moment’s notice. Movements, the objects of which are Dot apparent, are still progressing. TUE SHIPS. The vosition of the British ships at Tuzia is regarded as critical, owing to the short run for torpedo boats from Tehckmedje or San Stefano. Ttis strongiv suspected that the Thorncraft tor- pedo boats and Whitchead torpedoes are being dispatched to the Sea of Marmora in scctions. THE RUSSIANS occupy Charkol, Rodosto, Eregli, *Silivri, and Tehekmedie, all of which are admirably suited as bases for torpedo operations, should it be de- cided to menace our fleet. Precautionsare taken nightly to guard vessels against surprise. CONCESSIONS. CONSTANTINOPLE, March —The Russians bave made substantial concessions regarding the boundaries of Buigaria. This point s now settled. The question of war-indemnity was Qebated to-day. To facilitate its payment Rus- siahas abandoned her claim to the Turkish fleet. The signing of the peace negotiations are pear at hand. PROPOSED OCCUPATION. Viesxa, March 2.—The Political Correspond- ence publishes a Constantinople dispatch which says relisble intelligence from various quarters agree in the statement that the entry of a por- tion of the Russian army into Constantinople may shortly be expected irrespective of the or delay in the signature of peace. RUSSIA. THE AUSTRILY POLICY OBJECTED TO. VieNna, March 2—The Political Correspond- ence has 5 semi-official communication from St. ‘ other, waiting to be carried on. PRICE FIVE CENTS. Petersburg taking exception to Count An- ! faces of these angels under a veil of whitewash, arassy ‘s demand for 6,000,000 of florins. It says, “ Though not intended for armaments directed against Russia, this credit places Austriaoutwardly on the ssme footing as En- gland. Russia has certainly no objection to Austria’s occupation of Bosnia and Herze- govina. Austris cbjects to the complete autonomy of the whole of Bulgaria formed into a single province and its two year occupation by Russia. The latter combats the partition of Bulzarinin two provinces, instancing the fruitlessness of the stipulation separating Mol- davia and Wallachia. Temporary Russian occu- pation is imperative for the maintenance of tranquillity and prevention of excesses by the Bulgarians, but measures of control and super- vision may be taken to prevect occupation as- suming the character of conguest or assimila- tion thereto.” RESERVES CALLED OUT- ST. PETERSBURG, March 2.—The Czar has ;:men out four divisions of reserve with artil- ery. i ENGLAND. THE FLEET. Loxpo¥, March 2.—Vice-Admiral Inglefield will in May assume the command of the flect on the North American and West Indian stations. ATTENTION!

Loxspoy, March 2.—Licut.-Gen. Macdougall, Chief of the Intelligence Department of the War Office, will, in May, take command of the forees in Canada. It fs understood that, in tne event ot war, Gen. Macdougall will have au- thority to raise 10,000 Canadians for service in Europe. HOPE REVIVED. . Loxpoy, March 2.—The Zimes says the an- nouncements in Parlinment yesterday evening will be welcomed as reviving some lope of a peaceful settlement of the Enstern question. INCIDENTAL. CONSPIRACT. BeroraDE, March 2.—Forty-one respectable citizens have been imprisoned at Semindria, aud a number at Paratschin and Jagoding, charged with conspiracy to assassinate Prince Milan on his homeward journey. SERVIA. BELGRADE, March 2.—An extraordinary Cabi- net council took place to-day. Priuce Milan presided. All the military authorities were present. It is said it wasresolved not to resign the territory which Servia hasconquered in New Bulgaria. The Servian army will, for the preseut, remain on a full war footing. Artillers reserves are being orzauized. Prince Milan will return to the headguarters at Nisch. It is hoped, however, that Russia will yield to Ser- vi's wishes. FLYING TURES—HORRIBLE SIGHTS. A correspondent of the London Day Tete- graph_writes from Pera: 1 jeft Tatar Bazarajik by the last train that ran. The sight was appalline; thousands upon thousands of fugitives clutched to the train as fheir only haven; they clambered on to thetops of the carriawes, the steps and buffers; these last were crowded. They even put their women and children ou the rails” to prevent the engioes from advancing. At last we got away, but the same sight greeted us at every station. Furtber on we met. truclks full of these wretched people, scores of them crowd- ed into sheep tarriages, layers one above the In many in- stances these living truck-loads had remained for five days statiopary, Tt 2 mau, woman, o child daring to leave them for fear of losing their places. _The scenc was most harrible. fu one instance I saw eigit dead bodies in a truck. Moreover. dysentery prevailed frightfully among them. Without food, exposed to piercing cold, m a state of filth, the osition of these poor wretches can h:u'dlljy Ec imagined. Such asight I never witnesse As we proceeded I saw wretched little cni dren thrown away, starved and frozen to death, into the spows; they were dying in cart-loads. We traveled on: one night near to Hermanli occurred a dreadful scene. The train was too Teavy for us to_mount un incline, and we had toback. We haa proceeded ouly a few yards when we heard cruoch, cruneh, bump, and thought the engine was off the rails. We quickls came to 3 standstill, and_got off to os- Lrtain what had happened. ‘e found that in backing several of the poor wretches on the buffers had been thrown off between the met- als. The iron zuard in front of the engine had caught them, und rolled and croncbied them up, twoor three together, in a mangled mass of humanity. It was some time before we could extricaté their remains. Another poor fellow, @ soldier, who. having done good service, Was o his way botne, had his two legs cut off at the thigh; he was still living. This was one of the many frightful scenes Lwitnessed. The whole population is moving en masse toward the cap- ftal in a state of terror and panic perfectly in- describable. The suffering, misery, and mortal- ity is fearful. Christian Russia!” FGGITIVES IN THE MOSQUE OF ST. SOPIIA. Correspunaence London Standard. (CONSTANTINOPLE, Jan. 20.—Thoseamong your readers who have visited St. Sophis, and are ac- Quainted with the dificulties which were form- orly thrown in the way of visitors, would be somewhat surprised if they could visit. it to-day. You need no firman now to_obtain admission to the stately temple. The vast era of St. Soobia, as some of your readers must Know, is almost Sntirely free from furniture of any kind. At oncend of the church there are two larse stone mitrabs or pulpits, and in each of these mihrabs two or three families ere cncamped. I could not learn why they had obtained this distinction over the vast crowd of refugees, which comprised more than 3.00 persons, and was en mped all over the ‘natted floor ‘of the mosque. 1aavisediy use the word **encamped,” because each family had Deen careful to preserve its individuality. When a family possessed aoy bageage it had built a little semi-circular wall of that bagraze, within the protection of which it sat, and crouched, and lay. Who will douot that even tltis wretched siniulacrum of a home comforted the poor exiles who had made it! Evea those who bad no baggage wherewith to protect themselves, occupicd a Tittle exclusive 21n¢ on the matted tloor, and tried to lovk as if tiey were in their own bouse or tent. In the sthole crowd there were not wore than 200 men and most of them were lving down on rugs and Mattresses, and were quite stricken down with fever. 1do not think that any person who was erifering from small-pox bad beeu allowed to ter the mosque, bul there must have been 510 or 400, ereat and smail, who were suffering P Tever. The oir was quite swect, and L sosaue was clean. ‘The cuildren, who were at lecst 1,500 in number, were 81so clean, and o wef cheir mothiers Who lud been ble to procure wasbing utensils and water werc cu- P wd in washing the children’s clothes. In et idor and agaiost every wall to which every co! n:u ):md ring could be atcached, long rows ol children’ thes were hanging up Lo ury. \We Spoke with many of the groups, aud found 1o anger, no_petulauce, no impatienee among them. i never knew what patience and resig- pation were until yesterday. Here were three thousand people who had lostalmosteversthing O ossessed, and who had been driven from homes to whicn they never can retura, yet we Do trom them no word of avger or cfen of b tion, In one coruer was a family every e inember of which had been killed. In at- Piber was a group of children whuse father and et had been carried dead out of themosque ‘ihe previous day. In another a woman. ber- gelf fast yielding to the coming fever, watched By the fever-stricken forms of ber husband _and children. Never have I scen such misery. Nev- oo have T seen such patience. We stayed a long time with these poor c.eatures, and then ascended to the lofty ealle- T =s whicth overlook the floor of the mosque. Thwese galleries are so high that adults seem small wnen you look down upon tbem, but yesserday the childreu who were seattered over Yoo L vast numbers looked no bigzer than Cats and dogs. The sceme was terribly im- e, When last (425 years ago) a vast cro of refugces was for the first time gatheced _ tosrether in the Temple of the Divive Wisdom, the splendor of the church mocked the misery of the fugitives. Saint Sophia bas | no such spiendors to-day. The bare, cdld, and discolored walls harmonize with the squalor of the crowd which they inelose. Wher toe Christians took refuge in the church the faces of four colossal angels luoked down on the suppliants from the lofty dome. The Turks have long since hiaden the but the wings are still visible, and it s easy to see where the faces of the anwels have been. Let us trust that if the face of the Creator, like the faces of the :m% 1s, Is for a time veiled from this suffering crowd, His merey still lives, and will'ere long shine forth upon them. THE POPE. WIERE THE PONTIFF WILL RESIDE, ETC. RouE, March 2.—It is said the Pope intends to dismiss the Pontifical gens-d’armes aud the ° Swiss Guards.
