DEATH OF AN ABLE DIPLOMATIST. Yakoob Beg is reported dead, Russian Treaty Making with Yakoob. Russian advices report that a commercial treaty was lately concluded between Russia and Yakoob Beg—whose death is just now re- ported—the Badaulet or Khan of Kashgar. A treaty of this kind has long been desired by the government at St. Petersburg, but the Khan always refused to agree to one.of its stipulations, which provides for the free transit through his country, notonly of Russian merchants and @aravans, but also of Russian troops, A large Russian iorce was sent to the frontier with orders to oceupy the Girt ay the Khan persisted in his refus: This immediately had the desired effect, Yakoob Beg not only signed the treaty but sent an envoy to meet the Russian Governor General at Tashkend. On this occasion Yakoob, it is said, told the Rus- sian envoy, Baron Kaubas, that he preferred the friendship of ‘‘the great Czar’ to that of England, and that he had therefore refused all the offers of the British Indian government. The Russian Governor General, on the other hand, assured the Khan’s envoy in the name ot the Emperor Alex- ander that ‘the Russians had not came to Central Asia for the purpose of making conquests, but to lay down a secure basis for civilization and freedom.’ ENGLAND. —_—_—_—_—— Public Lament Over the Decay of the Iron Trade—Commétgial.

LOonpon, August 29,4873, The Times this morning has an editorial on the tron question, the burden of which is, that ‘one of the finest markets England ever possessed (the trade in iron) is being gradually closed to her. Her disasters in this direction are not yet ended. The United States are competing successfully for the control of the iron traffic with Canada, Sonth America and the West Indies. They have con- vested under immense natural disadvantages, but they have beaten England in spite of these. She cannot aiford to idle and sleep away her time and waste her money while competing with thrifty, active and intelligent nations.” The Times thinks much of the blame for the state of things it describes should fall upon strikers and trades unions, CONDITION OF THE CROPS.

From this timo until December tt is ex- Pected the increase will not fall short of 1,000 per month, In Pennsylvanta @ State grange will bo omanized on the 16th of September. It has taken root in Massachusetts and promises to spread rapidly in the other New England States, Virginia and Kentucky appear to be neutral ground, there being but three granges in the former and one in the latter State. The clerical force at headquarters m this city has been in- creased. All the elements ofa lively political campaign enter into the business of the Order, Cartoons illustrating the farmer's position with monopoiists are being prepared for general circu- lation, songs with words adapted to the object of the Order are being printed in New York by thous- ands, and a book called “Songs of the Grange” can- not be printed fast enough to fill the orders. The packages sent out from Washington have the following pasted on them, “compound extract of hay seed, an excellent mental invigorator, war- ranted to cure itching for ofice, pdlitical trickery, and sure to rémove unfaithful servants from office.” Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Maine, Maryland, Nevada and Rhode Island are the only btates where @ grange has not been established, New York has at present only nine granges, Doctoring the Quarterly Statement of the Treasury.

The doctoring system of ‘Treasury book keeping will have to be applied first, because the several statements can be made presentable in the annual report. Secre- tary Richardson disclaims any knowledge of the acts of his subordinates, but declines to furnish any further information on this subject. The Williamsburg and Greenpoint Post Offices. The Postmaster General to-day ordered a consoli- dation of the Post Offices at Williamsburg and Greenpoint with the Brooklyn Post Ofice. Ten letter carriers and four horses for postal service have been added to the Brooklyn Post Office for this service. The Entry of Imported Goods.

The” Commissioners ‘a id another secret Meeting at theirrooms in Union square, at half- past seven last evening. This Board is the only ‘one in the city which holds its meetings with closed doors, Allother public boards hold public meet- ings. During the meeting last night the question ot the Presidency of the Board was taken up, and Mr. S, H. Wales was elected to the office. The President is the only salaried officer in the Board, His pay is $10,000 per annum. It is understood Mr. Stebbins was not particularly anxious to get it, but all the others were. This “deadlock” has ceased. The Secretary was kind enough to make the following facts of the meeting public:— All the members of the commission were present, Mr. Stebbins in the chair pro tem. A communica- tion was received from the Civil Engineer, stating that the residents of West Farms were willing to bedr the expense of placing monument stones on the line of Sedgwick avenue as heretofore laid out. He was authorized to put workmen upon it under these conditions. Mr. Vaux, the architect, was authorized to proceed with the working plaus for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, to be located on the east side of the Park. An appropriation of $500,000 has already been made by the Legis- lature for this purpose. The secretary was requested to invite the officors and trustees of the Metropolitan Museum of . Art and the Comptroller to meet the Commissioners informally on Tuesday, September 9, for the pur- se of conferring about the erection of the build. ing. A proof of the bylaws was read and ordered to be incorporated in the minutes. Mr. Bissinger, Chairman of the Police Committee, reported that the number of keepers in the parks was inadequate, and recommended titat those on Central Park be increased trom thirty-nine to flity-six, and the number on city parks from nine to fifteen. This was adopted, and the remainder of the report regarding the system of the polico was laid on the table. Mr. Bissinger moved the’ following resolution:—“That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment appropriate $9,000 to meet the expense of imcreased force up to Decémber.”’ Adopted. Mr. Hall—That the Board proceed to elect @ President. It was adopted, and Mr. Bis- singer and Mr. Stebbins were made a committee to report upon the organjzation of the Board, ‘They reported the following officers:—For Presi- dent, Mr. S. H. Wales; Vice kresident, Mr. Steb- bins; Treasurer, Mr. Willtamson. Mr. Hall moved that the ee be accepted, and Mr. Bissinger moved that the report be adopted, which was done unanimously. The Board then adjourned. ABREST OF AN ALLEGED MURDERER, The Man Charged with the Killing of Frank Haverstraw Caught at Last. On the 23d of last June, about hali-past six o’clock in the evening, aight occurred outside a lquor store kept by Farrell Reilly, on the south- east corner of Sixteenth street and First avenue, in which @ man named Frank Haverstraw was so brut&ily beaten that his death ensued a few days subsequent to the conflict. The ovidence on the inquest went to show that the deceased was violently hurled -against a horse trough outside Reilly’s store, and though several persons were implicated and held to bail by Coroner Kess- ler, aman named William Larkin was proved to have been the one at whose hands Haverstraw re- ceived the injuries which caused his death, The Coroner issued a warrant for the arrest of the cul- rit; but he cleverly evaded apprehension until fast night, when Officer Creedon, of the Kighteenth ict, arrested him on Third avenue, between ty-aixth and Sxty-seventh streets. The prisoner was conveyed to the Twenty-second street police fitation and locked up. He refused to say anything about the affatr.

Atte hour appointed for the open- ing the hall was at U¢ half filled; but between a quarter to eight ana cient P.

McGregor, Banks, M‘Makin, Oliver, and other internationaiists. At @. quarter past eight the meeting was called to order, and Mr. games Connolly, President of the State ‘rade Assembly, was nominated and lected chairman of the evening. Mr. Connolly ts quite good looking, if not handsome. He did not look mach like aman who worked ten hours a day and was tired out by his labors. He made a brief address, the substance of which 1s a Censure of the State Capitol and Crystal Palacé Commissioners for giving that job to con- tractors who perform it by ten-hour men and by men who are not citizens of this State; censure of the city also for allowing gas monopolics to supply it with that necessary adjunct of civilization rather thari supply itself, as it does the Croton water. He also censured the Legislature for its apprentice- ship laws, and remarked that it made NO DIFFERENCE WHAT PARTY IS IN POWER, democratic or republican; ny ignore the work- ingman altogether, Let a politician or a capitalist call upon our legislators at any time, they cun have an audience ;but let the workingman call, they can't ponsibiy optain an interview. These, he de- clared, are the subjects upon whichthe working- men have met to speak and deliberate upon to- aight, For hunself, he was resolved never again to appear in Cooper Institute or any other hall at @ workingmen’s meeting until tue workingmen shall organize to resist every monopoly that is op- posed to their rights and interests. Mr. George Blair was chosen secretary, and in- troduced. He stepped forward, smiling basnfully like a maiden to whom the question has been “popped.” He was surprised, he said, that he should pe thus honored, but he would say a few words, He did say ae about the contract system in opposition to it, and then read the reso- lutions, which are as follows :— PREAMBLE AND RESOLUTIONS.: Whereas the workingmen of this city haying caused the enactnent of an eight-hour law, with a view to light- ening the burdens of toll and allotting to themselves a small portion of tftne for their own comfort and improve- ment And, to their great chagrin and indignation, that yy an insidious technicality, as well as by a still more insidious combination of capital, has pot been eniorced, elther on contract, national ‘or municipal work; and whereas the contract system, among its man} encroachments, threatens to build thé Ind Pal. ace i the interests ot monopoly -instead of in tho Interest of the people, by forcing, the workmen to work ten hours instead of eight, as the law prescribes; and whereas the worsingmen, through these and many simi- lar causes, are combined and agreed that no permanent enjoyment of the Light Hour law can ever be'realized until {odustries are conducted on the co-operative or irect principle, through the supervisory power and management of their own alected commissioners, rather than through the tyrannical control of middiomen by the contract system; therefore be ly resolved, Firet—That we, of the labor organizations of New York, in mags meeting assembled, are combined to mutually suglain one another in redréasing our wrongs. ‘Second—Vhat we have but one general wish, which is to Jubor for useful ends; therefore we demand that our labor be for the good of the whole commnnity, and not for the good of avarici ues of contractors and job- bers, who use their leisure tine in studying how to cheat us; ‘and that in order to accomplish this, such industries as’are at the command of the municipal, state and general governments must, in the future, be given to the trade organizations under ‘the direct supervisory control of persons elected by the people themselves, and not under the control of any coutractor, monopoly or 1avor- seeker whatever. PROTEST AGAINST CONTRACTS, Third—That we protest against the general government giving out contracts to contractors outside the locality where the work is to be perfor;ned without exacting a strict adherence to the Eight Hobr law, and seeing that, the men employed are pail the current raw of waxes of ‘ioe piace. as caljed foran the President’s proclamation of w. Fourth—That we protest against the evasion of the ht Rour Law by the lew Capitol Comusissioners in the execs tion of the Capitol building at Albany, by compelling the mien to work ten hours per day, aud ‘also letting out the greater portion by contract to parties that are instru. mental in having the money appropriated for the build- ing; and we think that those Commissioners in’ thus enly a ity violating the law deserve the ¥th.—That we demand the enactmént of a law for the better protection of the lives and limbs of workingmen enguged in all industrial pursuits, and we. severely’ cous fre the members of the last Legislature for not passin such alaw as would protect the workingmen while ai work, and hold the employers responsible tor any viola- tion of the same. That we demand the enactmeny of an Apprentice law of the State Legislature that shall nave Spenaiy attached for any violations thereof by em- joyers. Pisteth—That we demand tho immediate abolishmeut ot the contract system in ouf prisons; and that such arti- cles as are manutactured therein shall not be sold below their market value, so that our prison labor will not be a source of injury to outside producers. CHEAP urchase of the gas works in this city by the Government, so that the people may be supplied wil 3 Ught at cost, as they ure Low with wai ter. Fighh—That inasmuch as the Emigration Bureau at Castic Garden is conducted in the interest of the con- tract system through a ring of politicians truckling to capital, and therefore the real utent of our govern. ment io establishing and maintaining, at a great expense to the people, this Institution, is clandes unely abused and “thwarted, both ~ b: sys- tera of vietimiaing the minigrant by {alse “prom. ises and by inducing him to compete with American labor in the hope of breaking up our organizations; and that ay we feel this to be @ direct blow at our rights ang Uberties, therefore we demand that m: ares taken for the creation of a Labor Bureau, wherein our organ- izations may be gherous! ly represented by our own elected officers, who pre accurate monthly re- ports to us of its transactions. ‘Ninth That we sympathize with and hail with Joy the cess of the farmers’ movement in the West and South, and that while we consider ourselves as a homogeneous part of that body, which was never complete without the acriculturists, we extend to them the hand and tle of soudarity; an cheap transportation sary to Us, Who starve for the ood duée, therefore we believe that the only means 0 is by sabstituting & government railroad which shall be managed by the people themselves, and subject to thelr watchfal guardianship and legislation. and defiantly sub- vorsive of the arrogant roads of the contract system, whose alarming effrontery and growth threaten to dermine the liberty of American institutions. Teth—That We purpose using a lawiul-and honorable means within our power to crush a system which has tor its object the degradation of the workingnran; and we are determined, seeing the great injustice that is being dong and the great evil that is growing in our midst, to co-operate with all those who will beirend us in sweep- ing away this great and growing evtl from our midst, anid we dire detwrmined never to stop until success crowns our efforts. ‘These were unanimously adopted. Mr. OSBORNE WakD, Of the engineers, was then introduced. He entered deeply into the contract system @8 against the co-operative. His meta- physical profundity was, however, not duly appre- ciated by his audierfce, and once or twice rather conjused himself. While he was recovering bis point a voice in the audience added an “amen” as a suggestion that he should sit down, He put him- self right by @ REFRRENCE TO EUROPBAN POLITICS and social life. His speech was an earnest plea for Wooreanoe in manufacturing, railroading, min- ing, &c. A fir. Ferauson, of the National Cheap Transporta- tion Association, was the next speaker. His par- ticular theme was the condition of the farmers of America and thetr relation to the workingmen of the country. He is a florid-faced, medium-sized, gentlemanly-appearing man, who evidently has not labored hard tor some time. He started out with a table Of statistics, compiled from the census tables and designed to show the number of farmers and mechanics in the country, aud thereiore theit Poet in politics. The railroads of the United States, he satd, are beld by a score of men who can at any moment telegraph all over the country and raise the price of wheat or flout, pork, bacon or any thing else that the working: men of our large ci require. He made a series of calculations to demonstrate that the people of New York pay @t least $132 for transportation apon every barrel of flour red consume more than they ought to pay, because of tne raliroad monop- olies. He then showed why and how the pro- ducers and the consumers should make COMMON CAUSE AGAINST MONOPOLISTS.

A Train Run Into on the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad—One Man with His Arm Broken, Two Ladies with Their R Faces Out and the Engineer in a Bruised Condition. An accident occurred yesterday morning on the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad, about half way between Fort Mon{gomery and @ecekskill, which came near being another holo- caust of human life, as the result of tne careless- ness of railroad officials or of the inevitable chances of railroad travel. Fortunately, however, no life was lost, though three passengers were more or less injured and two sleeping coaches and a drawing room coach badly smashed. The smash-up occurred at about six o'clock, A.M., and was caused by the second Atlantic train from Albany overtaking and running into to-night and they ought to’ the first Atlantic train, whose time is only some fifteen minutes ahead of the former, The délay of the first Atlantic train was the result of meeting withithe “caboose”? of the extra freight train, which without the knowledge of the conductor, had been left behind, the coupling having broken. The first Atlantic train was obliged to run the ‘cal- couse” to & switch which was some distance away; meantime the freight train hdVing missed the cal- ouse, returned for it. The freight train and the first Atlantic had received from each other the usual signals of danger, and were thus enabled to meet, but the time consumed tn providing for the upcoupled freight car allowed the second Atlantic train no other course than to come upon them. A signalman had been sent (rom the“frst Atlantic train to give the usqal signals IMPENDING DANGER; but he had gone only about 100 yards when the second Atlantic train swept round @ curve in the road, and, though the engineer did all he could to stop the engine, it was useless now to try to avert the collision. In a few seconds the last car of the first Atlantic train was mashed into and this in turn frittered the end of the drawing room car that preceded it, and this again did some slight damage to the sleeping car to which it was coupled. ‘The engine of the second Atlantic train was also much injared. Both ends of the last sleeping car were completely broken and the nearer end of the drawthg room car, the interior of each being HUDDLED INTO ONE HEAP OF DEBRIS. In each train there were about forty passengers, but in the second Atlantic no one received the slightest hurt, except the engineer, Mr. Hildreth, who, seeing no chance of avoiding the colliston, ae from the engine. He received some very af ruisés On the head, and his face was cut and sfigured.

W. Biddell and Mrs. Bicdell, of 147 Eas Fifty-second street, and Mrs, Chapman, who is a resident of Brooklyn. Mr. Biddell’s arm was badly crushed—so much so that tt was feared yesterda} that amputation woula be men onc ‘Mrs. Bid- dell received only a slight scratch on the face, and Mrs. Chapman only a slight hurt on the forehead. None of the other passengers were in any way in- en- ured. But very little commotion was caused among the passengers in consequence of the collision. They all quetly extricated themselves as fast as possible from the broken cars, and, entering those coaches of the First Atlantic train that had not been hurt, continued on the Sp ae New York, as did also the sengers of the Second Atlantic train, the engine of ‘which was disabled. The First Atlantic train had left Aibany with seven coaches and the Second Atlantic train with eight coaches, Mr. Beddel, however, was obliged to leave the train at Peekskill, where medical aid was procured for him and where his arm was dressed. Later in the day Le returned to his home inthis city. The engineer, William Hildreth, was also conveyed to his home at Peekskill, and during the day SUFFERED VERY SEVERELY from the wounds in his head, The delay caused by the collision did not exceed half an hour. Early in the afternoon the three broken coaches were moved down to Peekskill, where they remained unttf about five o’clock in the evening, when they were taken back to Albany. During the afternoon they formed an object of con- alderable interest to passengers in the cars passing and insisted that protection taxes the working men more than free trade.

The Brooklyn Defaulter in Durance Vile at Last—No Bail Accepted—He is “Not the One Who Got the Golden Egg.” About seven o'clock last evening Captain Ferry repaired to the residence of Mr. Rodman, on Union street, near Hoyt, and being immediately admitted into the presence of the accused, stated the un- pleasant nature of his visit as being to effect the arrest of M.T. Rodman. There were present when the captain entered Messrs. E. T. Wood and B. F. Tracy, counsel for the prisoner. The latter, who appeared to be in good spirits, but very feeble, put on his hat and coat, and, accompanied by his counsel, descended the steps of the house, and getting into a carriage the party drove to the court room, corner of Butler and Court streets, wliere Judge Delmar presided, The coun- sel, on behalf of Mr. Rodman, waived examination on the charge of embezzlement and moved that he be admitted to bail, offering any reasonable amount that might be required. The Justice, how- ever, refused to accept bail, and he was removed to the Butler street station house, where he was furnished with @ seat in one of the rooms, His counsel meanwhile busied themselves to find Gen- eral Jourdan, President of the Police Commission, tor the purpose of Con] an order or permit upon-which to have the dist ished prisouer al- lowed to remain tn his house during the night, in- asmuch, as they claimed, his health would be greatly tmpaired by detaining him all night in the station house, The prisoner remarked to an acquaint- ance, with a smile of much significance, “I am not the one who got the golaen egg.”” Dr. Watt, Regis- trar of the Health Board and ex-Assemblyman of the Fourth district, was sent for at a late hour to grant a certifi jhowing the delicate condition of Mr. Rodman, and upon this document the ac- cused isd oc bm itted to remain in custody of an officer at his house for the night. This morning he will be taken before Assistant District Attorne, Cullen, when the motion for bail will be renewed. Colonel E. T.
