THE WINSLOW EXTRADITION CASE—SKCRETARY Yist’s ARGUMENT. Secretary Fish’s communication respecting the ex- tradition of Winslow was delivered to the British For- eign Office on Saturday last, but is unanswered yet. It is not known what course will be pursued when Winslow’s time expires, THE AMERICAN ARGUMEST. ‘The ground taken by Secretary Fish is that clause 27 of the Act of 1870, under which the British govern- ment claim that America should give an assurance that the prisoner shail be tried for no other offence than the one for which he 1s extradited, specifies that what- ever is inconsistent with existing treaties shall be ex- copted [rom the operations of that act, America has presented this point soverat times, but England, so far, has ignored it. Tne assertion by tho London papers that America had refused to give the assurance required by England ts incorrect, as America bas never admitted or consented to discuss that ques- tion at all, FAILURES ON 'CHANGE. ‘There were two fatiures off the Stock Exchange here and one at Manchester yesterday, and one here to-day, in connection with the settlement.

The agent says:—They will remain quiet if fed, and if not fed by us (the civil authorities) the military must take them in hand, and I fear trouble. ‘The Department telegraphed to the agent that noth- ing could be done until Congress appropriated money. This was done in the Deficiency bill which was passed yesterday, and last night the Commissioner of Indian Affairs telegraphed to the officers ut the Bureau at the Hot Springs agency to buy up to the full limit of the Jaw for immediate necessities and to telegraph at onco w this city the estimates for further supplies.

They shot Lewis dead at his work and stole four horses. They wounded Brown while in his feld, but he escaped into the brush and bid there all pe and was found next day by settlers.

Omaua, Neb., April 28, 1876, A telegram from tho Red Cloud and Spotted Tail agencies via Fort Laramie, yesterday evening, states that no supplies worth mentioning have been tssued to the Indians at those points since the 10th inst, The | Indians are on the verge of starvation, owing to the failure of Congress to vote an appropriation and of the | governmont to forward the supplies needed, The In- dians would undoubtedly have Jef’ on a raid ere this bat for the moral effect of the late expedition against ‘Crazy Horse's band. There can be no question, how- ever, that they will be forced to rad unless supplies are promptly forwarded. General Crook | bas been and is now urging the peces- sity of keeping up the supplies and hold- ing to the agencies those Indians who are disposed to be friendly, but he ts apprehensive that the hosule In- dians wil! be greatly reiuforced from those now at the agencies on account of the lack of supplies, No official iuiormation has been received of avy raids since the one in which Brown was shot.

Y., April 28, 1876. ‘The intelligence that the Delaware and Hudson Coal Company has suspended mining operstions in many of their collieries, as wel! as that they have reduced the tonnage to the seaboard, has just reached here through private sources, The action of the corpora- tion has aroused much dissatisfaction and excitement among the miners and laborers, who had generally sup- posed th spring. The more desperate spirits among the work- ingmen have already inaugurated terrorism in differ- ent portions of the upper coal fields about Carbondale and Honesdale, 4 Ror, Atan early hour yesterday morning much lawless- Bess was perpetrated at and near Coaldale, It appears that two men enterod the hotel of James West and be- came vory riotous, Mrs, West expelled one of the in- truders and her husband the other. Upon this the crowd of angry and excited men fired a volicy of pistol shots into the doors and windows of the hotel This action created 4 combat between them and another faction, the result of which was tho fatal wounding of Thomas West, a brother of the landlord, James West, and the shooting af a young man named Thomas To- gan in tho right breast, just below the nipple, The wounded mun bled profusely and dangerously. Alter tho occurreuce he was carried to his home. Immedi- ately after the houso in which be was being attended was showered with bullets. Fortunately po great damage was done. The crowd of rioters next visited the residence of David Gritith, a mine boss, who, it seems, has recently incurred the enmity of the lawless element of that portion of the coal feild, 4 NARROW RxCcAPE.

Several houses were also fired, MORE MLOODSHED APPREHENDED, There are weil authenticated reports of the perpetra, tion of other lawlessness in the more secluded sections of the region. A very unsettled and precarious state of affairs exists at present in Coaldale, and the least in- diacretion upon the part of any one would most un- doubtedly precipitate violence and bloodshed, particu- larly as ihe bitterness of tecling between the vartous elements becomes more intensified hourly. It is the general impression that the outrages already enacted are not the worst that’ will bappen in Coaldale and its neighborhood, The impression prevails that the law- Dreakers area portion of the gang with which Doyle and Kelly, the condemned Molly Maguires, were formerly connected, but who managed to escape from the lower to the upper coul felds, BANK FAILURE IN ALABAMA, MontcomERY, Apfil 28, 1876. ‘The banking hoase of KF.
