TELEGRAM TO THE HEW YORK HERALD, The following special despatch to the ‘Hurarp has been received from one of our correspondents in Asia by way of London :— Stycarorz, E. L, April 17, 1873. The Atcheen war against the power of the Netherlands government in Asia continues. SEVERE FIGHSNG, WITH VARIABLE SUCCESS. A-second assault of the Hollanders on the insurgent positions was a partial success. The »Duteh troops carried two forts by storm, but were repulsed during an attack on the prin- cipal fort. The Dutch are now besieging the Sultan's DESPERATE FIGHTING AND HEAVY BATTLE. There has been some desperate fighting. ‘The Dutch commander, Kohler, was killed in one of the engagements, afier his army force had 200 men slain. NATIVE ARMAMENT. The Atcheeneso are badly armed, as usual with the natives. ROYAL REINFORCEMENTS REQUIRED. The Dutch officers have made a call on ihe home government for roinforecments. LOSSES IN DEATH FROM DISEASE. Severe sickness prevails at the scene of hos- tilities and on the coast. PORTS BLOCKADED, The ports of pepper and other produce ex- port are blockaded. AGITATION FOR WAR FROM BATTAK TO ATCHEEN. * Tho war movement of tho Atcheenese is re- garded as a part ofa series of insurrectionist demonstrations against the Dutch, which was initiated in the Batiak country at the close of the year 1872. Fighting was commenced by the Battaks in the month of October last and continued to the close of the year. An expe- dition by the Dutch troops toward the interior met with a heavy reverse. As the advance guard was entering.a mountain pass a deadly fire was opened upon them by a number of Battaks whose ambush was too effectually con- gealed by the jungle. Some twenty men of the Dutch detachment were wounded, anda young lieutenant, the latter mortally. The Dutch troops thereupon destroyed a Battak ‘campong in the neighborhood and retired in -order to Soengal. The Sultan then placed a price on the heads of two rebel Datocs, and the Panghulu of Sapuruch agreed to give up these Datoes for the sum ($2,000) offered, but on condition that the Dutch troops should come up to the moun- tains and take delivery. Meantime every Dutch settler’s house was emphatically his castle, fortified with stockades and garrisoned by Dutch marines, who kept watch day and night, and the contemplated march of ‘the royal troops to the mountains was spoken of as a hazardous experiment.

A painful rumor comes from Alexandria, Egypt, that Sir Samuel Baker and his wife, Lady Baker, have been murdered in the interior of Africa by the natives of that country. Sir Samuel Baker, accompanied by his wife, took the Egyptian expedition up the Nile. Earl Granville’s Order for. Official In- quiry. Lonpox, April 17, 1873. The rumor of the murder of Sir Samuel Baker and his wife causes much uneasiness at the Foreign Office. The government has. received no information whatever in relation to the oecurrenee. Harl Granville has telegraphed to Alexan- dria, making inquiry into the origin of the report. The Latest Reports from the,Baker Ex- pedition, A telegram from Alexandria, dated in that city on the 23d of December, 1872, supplied a transla- tien ofa letter which-had just been received from Consul Hanzel, at Khartounr, dated Ackada, No- vember 7, and which read as folows:— Ten native trading boats have arrived at Ackada ndekore laden with ivory, but have brought ews er letters from Baker Pasha Jor Kurope or ptian government. SirS.

April 17, 1873, Another day of cloudless sky and genial breezes smiled upon the Spring mecting of the Louisiana Jockey Club, and if the track had only been in good condition the limited attendance would have been fully rewarded for their trouble, It was in wretched order, however, hard and lumpy, creat- ing much dissatisfaction among owners, who, rightiy enough, objected ‘to having their horses’ feet bruised and gashed as they were in to-day’s races. The programme was @ short but attractive one, THE FIRST RAGE was @ mile dash, with five entries—Cape Race, John McCormack, King Benezet, Jehn McDonald and Nellie R. In the pools Cape Race was: the fa- vorite at two to one against the fleld, but on the track takers multiplied, bringing the odds even. The race was a beautiful one. All got off well together, McDonald leading the fleld, Nellie and McCormack following head te head, Cape Race and Benezet taking the rear guard, All ran from the jump, and returning to the turn Nellie .went to the itront and led the scamper down the backstretch, dropping McDonald to the rear, Entering the homestretch Cape Race and McCormack both put en the steam, passed to the front, and had it neck-and-neck down the finish, disputing every stride. Until they reached the stand it was impossible to distinguish the advantage, but at the last jump, to the great joy of the fielders, which was loudly expressed, Mc- Cormack showed his nose in front, winning by a neck, Cape Race second, Nellie third, McDonald fourth, and King Benezet last. Time, 1:50. THE SECOND RACE was 4 mile heat event, for all ages, with five entries.

By dint of patience and much coaxin, she was at last got into line, and all went o! at the platy in a regular scamper. Sansam took the track with I. 0. U. ciose on her, Frank Hamy ton third, the Planet colt running an easy fourth. At the quarter post all bunched and dashed down the homestretch, with I. 0. U. nosing in the lead. At the half mile the pace began to tell and then Hampton led the dance with I. 0. U., and Mabry driving him close areund the turn. Entering the homestretch the Planet colt woke, up came up gallantiy to secend place and oe Hampton, making @ spiendid struggle for the finish. ‘hip andapur were plied upon both, but the Planet's biood was up, and with a desperate struggle he led under the string by a throat latch, Maory third, I. 0, U. fourth, Sansam fiitn. ‘Time, 1:494g° Between heats betting did not vary much. Frank cooled olf beautifuily, but the Coit showed signs of fatigue, A good start was obtained for the second heat, the horses going off in same order as the first, rounding the turp easy.

(lately christened Winne), Weidon’s mares Flora Mcivor and Mary Louise, Oheatham’s Repeater and Old Pilgrim, Repeater was the favorite in the pools, while Weldon’s entries were soid together; but on the track the betting ruled at even upon the latter against the fleld, At the start Mary Louise led the dance, Repeater next, the rest in a pocket; but rounding the turn Flora, evidently bent upen cutting out the work, went to the frent and drove the pace throughou the race, They did the first mile in 1:56¢, Flora fiity yards ahead of Repeater, Winne and Pilgrim weilup, and Mary Louise, waiting, closing in the rear. In the same order they travelled round the second mile, Flora gradually widening the daylight in her rear, and in the same order they passed the second mile, strong, in 3:49%%. On the back stretch of the third mile +4 Louise went up to second gee with Fiera still eut of reach, and so they nished the race, Flora about a square ahead of the fleld, Mary Loutse second, leading Repeater by two lengths, Pilgrim fourth and Wiane filtit, Time, 5:44, Of course & shout went up for the old mare's vic- tory, but It was so0u discovered that the rider had dropped his lead pad on the second mile, coming in three and @ half pounds short weight.

Surrender of the Government to the New York Central Railroad, There has been considerable comment over the removal of Collector Bailey, of the Albany district, and the appointment of Assessor Lothrop to that office. The change, it is said, would have been mie long ago but for prudential reasons, Tie President thought it weuld be construed as pan- dering to the New York Central Railroad clique, for Mr. Batley has persistently enforced the instruc- lions of the Internal Revenue Bureau, The friends of the road rallied and brought the necessary military pressure to bear upon the President in favor of the corporation, so Bailey wes removed and Lothrop appointed. The President knew that a premature announcement of the change would rally a battalion of politicians in Washington. Orders were consequently given to the head of the Treasury Department that under no circumstances should the changes be made known through his department. The commissions had been signed and were in the possession of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue early yesterday afternoon, yet he did not dare give them out, When it was positively known the President would leave for St. Louis last night, the new appoint- ments were promulgated from the White House. It is oMcially stated now that no effort will be made to prosecute the New York Central Raliroad officials, and the splurge to collect the scrip dividend tax will last another four years. Supervisor Hawley and the Internal Revenue Irregularities. The friends of Supervisor Hawley, in New York, are aggrieved by the connection of his name with the irregularities in the Second district. They claim that he had nothing whatever to do with the examination of Collector Treadwell’s accounts, ex- cept to verify the statement that the amounts reported as collectable and unpaid had been paid to the Coliecter months belore the examination took place. He had nothing whatever to do with the discovery of the fraud, and, so far as he knew, fulfilled his duty. The fault complained of was that all the parties implicated were not proceeded against. One clerk, for in- stance, whose account the examiner said showed a deficit of $1,400, when called upon to explain, immediately drew a check for the amount, remark- ing that the examiner was nothing better than a black-mailer, and rather than have him exercise his authority he would trust to the justice of the of. cials in Washington to recover that amount. It 13 useless now to disguise the facts, There is very much that is rotten in Washingten, and uniess a partisan vote in Congress next session suppresses imvestigation, the truth will be made known. Compromises with Defrauding Impor- ters—A Custom House Question Settled. It has been decided at the Treasury that in all cases where persons desire to compromise sults brought against them by the government for the recovery of duties on imports the defendants must, in all cases, state the specific sum they are willing to pay to be released from prosecution, and the proposition must receive the approval of the prose- cuting District Attorney. ‘The attempted introduction ¥f an invoice of in- ferior foreign watches, purporting to be of Ameri- can manufacture, has been prevented by the Cus- | tom House authorities under the act of March 3, 1871, passed for the protection of domestic mana- factures, That law prohibits the introduction of foreign goods made in imitation of and purporting to be of American articles, and the question aris- ing under it was whether the contraband goods should be destroyed or sent back to the port of ex- portation, as to sell them im this country, even for the benefit of the government, would defeat the object of the law. The Treasury Department has ordered the reshipment of the goods, and this ruie is to govern for the future in all such cases. Senator Bayard Returns His Back Pay. Secretary Richardson rectived a letter to-day from Senator Bayard, enclosing his check for $4,865 60, the amount of his share of the salary steal, The venerable Sevator explains that he did allin his power to prevent the incorporation of the retroactive clause in the Salary bill, and only con- sented to vote in favor of the Appropriation bil, in which it was finally embodied, in order to prevent the necessity of au extra session of the Purty-sec- ond Congress.

There was no fuss or bustle about the Chief Executive's arrival. He came like an ordinary traveller and The Men Who are Wanted in tho Old Country. TELEGRAMS TO THE NEW YORK HERALO. The following special despatch’ to the Herarp has been received from our corre- spondent in the capital of Cuba :— Havana, April 15, 1873. An American, giving the name of Oscar Wilson, was arrested here on the arrival of the steamship Morro Castle on the complaint of Michael Haydon, Chief of Detectives of the London police force, and of Sergeant of Police William Green, passengers on the Morro Castle, who hive been sent to take Bidwell, the alleged forger on the Bank of England, to London, SHARP PRACTICE BY DIU'FERENT CLASSES OF PROFESSIONALS. It appears that the valises of Haydon and Green were ‘gone through’’ by a professional, and the sum of forty English sovereigns, with some papers, robbed from them. Suspecting Wilson of having committed the robbery the officers had his valise searched at a moment when he was engaged in a small game of poker. The searchers found therein burglar’s tools and the key of room No. 26 of the Maison Dorée, where the detectives were quartered in New York. BOLD STROKES FOR A LEGAL BAFFLE, It is supposed that Wilson is a confederate of Bidwell’s gang, and that his present inten- tion was to obtain, by stealing them, the legal documents bearing on Bidwell’s case, and thus prevent his extradition from Cuba. Wilson’s baggage was again searched after his arrest, but nothing further of a criminal character was found. A few more tools use- ful to the burglar fraternity were found under the mattress of the bed of the English detec- walked about the depot like an old resident, Ac- companying the President were his wife, his daughter, Miss Nellie, and General Babeock. The party entered the hotel by the main entrance and were escorted by the head waiter, in white gloves and flerce brass buttons, to a small table in one corner of the dining room, where breakfast was served, BREAKFASTING IN PITTSBURG, The appetite of those guests who made the dis- covery that they were breakfasting in the same room with the President and his family was, in several depressing instances, irretrievably ruined; but the main body of the guests remained in posi- tive ignorance of the presence of the Presidential party. Breakfast was slowly eaten, so that it was about nine o’clock when they leit the hotel. The party proceeded directly to the cars, Generals Grant and Babcock strolled about for a few moments on the platform and then again retired within the car. The President took his seat in an easy chair, lit a chubby Havana and commenced to read the morning papers, sending out of the win- dow into the morning air clouds of bive fragrant smoke. He was neatly dressed in a dark broad- cloth suit, blue cheviot overcoat and a high silk hat of the latest style. Mrs. Grant sat nearly opposite. She was dressed in a neat travelling suit of dark color, and was en- gaged at the time of the visit with a book. Miss Nellie sat just behind her mamma, gazing out of the window, engaged in the impossible task of try- ing to plerce a Pittsburg fog. She was also very plainly attired, having a little round hat witha small plume swathed in a travelling veil perched upon her brown curls. She wes looking rather tired, as if night travelling did not agree with her, THE PRESIDENT AND THE MODOCS, General Babcock was interviewed with regard to the probability of the President expressing his views in regard to the Modoc troubies. The General scouted the idea and said the views of the Executive were pretty thoroughiy under- stood in that matter. ‘However, the President is approachable,” said the bland Babcock, ‘but it ts very doubtiul if interviewable.” The usual courtesies being exchanged the Presi- dent knocked the ashes from his cigar and squared | himself for the attack. “General, I believe there ja aremote possibility of your refusing to give expression to your views upon the Modoc massacre!” The President leaned further back in his chair, put one leg over the other, smiled agreeably, ana said that he could give no information upon the subject which has not already been given. ly policy in this relation is pretty thoroughly unde stood. The information from that quarter is meagre as yet, but I am expecting intelligence mo- mentarily.”? “De you expect, Mr. President, news of the ex- termination of tuis particuiar tribe of savages? Am I to understand you now favor a severe course teward the Modecs?"” PEACE POLICY STILL. The Presipent—The peace policy, which has been abused and condemned, strictly provides for the stern punishment of Indians when circum. stances warrant 1t; but innocent tribes siould not be visited witn punishment on account of the treachery of some particular one, nor should the peace policy entire be pronounced against for failure in this single instance. «The enemies of your peace policy are aware, hold up this last mass: I suppose you ore as an illus tration of its ineffective working; in fact, of its utter Worthiessness."’ “Minds are like watches,” replica the General, at the same moment consulting bis Umepiece. d find fault at any rate, ity tothe Piegans, and for too much “They differ.

THE CHIEF ACTORS IN THE PROCEEDINGS. The chief actors on behalf of law and the rights of property were Inspectors Haydon and Green, of the London police, and Mr. Good, a clerk in the Bank of England. Oscar Wil- son, who is supposed to be a celebrated thief in New York, took passage on the steamer shortly before her sailing from that port. When the vessel had been to sea but a few hours Mr. Green’s trunk was opened and the forty some jewelry abstracted. Purser Himond, of the Morro Castle, sus- pected Wilson of the theft and kept a watch on him, while’ others on’ the steamer sus- pected one of the waiters, SPECIAL MANAGEMENT OF THE CASE. On Saturday evening Wilson was invited to take a walk on the deck, and while doing soa person went below and inspected the satchel which he brought on board thesteamer. In tho satchel were found a complete set of burglar’s tools and skeleton keys of beautiful workman- ship. The Morro Castle arrived here on Sun- day evening, and the passengers were not per- mitted to land on account of the lateness of the hour. While the passengers were on deck Wilson went below and abstracted a quantity of papers from the baggage of the officers. After the first attempt to rob the trunks the Londoners removed the papers and kept them sovereigns and about their persons. THE MEN WANTED. The clerk of the Bank of England has iden- tified Bidwell as the man who opened an ac- character. ‘The Havana authorities have arrested Wil- son on the charge of burglary. The crime was committed inside the harbor of Havana, and the case is consequently under Spanish jurisdiction. 2 The English detectives and British Consul have completely baffled the efforts of Bidwell’s friends to obtain his release.
