The Conference Reach a Con- clusion on Protecting the Canal, Franos Sees & Chance for a Fight with Queen of Madagascar: A variety of Important News from Other Points, Special Dispatehos to Tim Bxs, A SHREWD REASON. ConstaNTINOPLE, August 14.—The Mussleman jurists’ whom the Sultan frequently consults explain that Arabi Pasha in 8o far as he disobeyed the Caliph is a rebel, and may be uncere- moniously treated as such, but in so far as he has been a defender of the Mohammedan country against the ag- gressive designs of Christians he has merely fulfilled the duties of a good Muesleman, and consequently the Caliph cannot make eommon cause with England. The Sultan may pun- ish Arabi Pasha if some act of rebel- lion is proved against him, but he must not aesociate himself with those who wish to crush Arabi Pasha asa defender of Islam. A correspondent says this will greatly’ influence Tur- kish military action. THE PORTE MOVING SLOWLY. CoNsTANTINOPLE, August 14,—The irade declaring Arabi Pashu arebeland authorizing the Anglo-Turkish mili- tary convention is not yat signed. The conference met at the residence of Smid Pashs to-day, and discussed tho question of protection of the Suez canal, but no decision was reached. It1s believed the resolutions of the conference in relation to this matter have no immediate important bearing. 1t is understood a divergence of views exists betweenthe porte and Lord Duf- ferin respecting the wording of tho proclamation egainst Arabi Pasha. Lord Dufferin desires a plain and sim- ple proclamation in Turkish and Ara- bic, that Arabi Pasha is not & chief, but an ambitious and lawless adven- turer. Eagland insists upon com- manding the Turkish troops. It is stated the question will be brought before the conference. THE MILITARY CONVENTION. LonpoN, August l4c—A dispatch from Constantinople s -eyaral stipulations proposed in the military convention are considered unaccepta- ble to Turkey. The proclamation against Arabi Pasha will not be is- sued until the convention is signed. The session of the conference to-day was exclusively occupied with consid- eration of the proposal of Count Corti, Ttalian ambassador, for collective police supervision of Suez canal, which was finally agroed to as a temporary measure, with a modification - sub- mitted by Lord Dufferin, British am- bassador, permitting the landing of troops. The proposition was then embodied in the protocol. The Turk- 1sh objection to the military conven- tion was not brought forward by Smd Pasha. It is understood the porte is endenvoring to e the deley in issuing the proclamation agaivst Arabi Pasha as a lever to obtain easier terms with respect to the military convention, COMPLAINTS OF MERCHANTS, Mho National Zeitung states that petitions are increasing from cham- bers of commerce throughout Ger- many to Bismarck in regard to the in- demnification of German morchants who suffered by the riots in Alexan- dria.

A cor respondent writing from Beyrout says events in Egypt ure greatly in- fluencing Syrian Mussulmane. ~ The situation is such that a trifling incid- ent would suffice to set the whole pro- vince ablaze.

Monk, for some time em. ployed at the Union Pacific headquar- ters in various departments, by virtue of a blood relationship with one of the leading officials of that great cor- poration, was arvested yesterday af- ternoon and taken before Judge Wright on the charge of forgery. The prisoner waived examination and was released on §300 bonds to appear on the 24th inst. ‘I'he particulars as obtained from one conversant with the whole business, were briefly as follows: Monk was indebted to E. Wyman, the statiouer, in the sum of 3 for borrowed money. the Omaha National bank of Donohue & Downey, he filled it out for £16.75, drawing to the order of (i, T. Drew and endorsing the name of Drew in a boldor hand on the back of the check, He then entered Wyman's and of- fered the check to the young man who clorks there, saying, I believe Iowe you $275. Take it out of that.” The boy said the amount of indebted- ness was §3, and thereupon gave him $13.75 in chango, knowing that he had dealt there and supposing all was right. Mr. Wyman soon returned and dropped _on the game at once. De- tective Neligh coming in soon after, he handed the check over to him and Neligh took it to the bauk, where he found that there was no money comj ing to Monk. In the meantime the latter came in to Wyman's again and asked him to hold the check, saying that he would get some money this morning and take itup, He was told that the paper had passed out of Mr. Wyman's hands, He then went and got a well known real estate man to give him a gentlomen’s check for the amount and tried to make it all right, but Mr. Wyman refused this check, say- ing that the paper was no longer in his hands. Monk next hunted up Uapt Noligh and offered him the check, but he in- stoad of taking it, drew a warrant A FLUSH ON|\WHEELS. The Kissing Quartette Fixing their Political Fing in Hall County.

Corspondencoof the Beo, Graxp Istanp, August 14.—This city was honored yesterday by a visit from our congressman, who came up from the North Bend “‘jamboree” on the Donver exprass and took a good view of the city as an appetizer for his broakfast, which he took at the house of his friend and alleged rival, Chaun- from his pocket and arrested Monk, with the result stated abouve. Monk now claims that the Drew whoso name he signed was not the Drew whose name he meant to sign, but that it was another Drew who had authorized him to sign his name. It iy assorted on the other hand that Monk has passed a number of checks on different parties, and is in fact not very straight in his financial transac- tions. To use his own words in looks liko he had *‘got into a bad box.” THE CIRCUS. A Chat With John B. Doris of the Mansgerial Firm of Batcheller & Doria, A reporter of Tur Bek met the above named gentlomanat the Millard Hutel yesterday morning, During the course of a desuitory conversation Mr. Doris said: “Our business for the past seven woeks has beenremarkably large. The show was at Des Moines on Saturday, the tents being crowded to reple- tion at both performances, and we ara playing at Chariton to-day. Our show is going very smoothly coy Wiltse. There is somothing funny in the ambition of Chauncey; he thinks he will be a good enough dark horse to get away with the Fremont convention, but if he isn’t, why then he will turn his strength (if he has any) over to Val. or the other highest bidder, By the way, Vic. Bierbower says he was offered the Hall county delega- tion, for better or worse, for 300, He declined the offer and told of it, and Michael, now running The Times here, says Vic. is a liar. Val, and Chauncey fixed it up be- tween themselves yesterday. Chaun- coy hitched up after dinner and drove out into the country ‘‘to look at the chickens,” Chauncey held the lines; Val, and General Thayer filled the back seat, to give it stability, and on the front seat, beside Chauucey, sat Taylor. Kverybody doesn't know Taylor. T. A, is the handlo to his name. Ie used to run a train be- twoen here and North Platte, but one day the company dissolved the part- nership, and Taylor had to migrate. He went into Buffalo county, locating at Shelton, where he nhrtel{n saloon aund still runs it, and where you can get, 8o he says, *‘the best, by Sl now. We have changed and added to the arenic attractions considerably since we opened the season, and now 1 have no hesitancy in saying that we are not ashamed to compare the ring performance with any other in the country.” In response to THE BEE man's in- quiries ocomcerning Millie Ohristine, two-headed pneuomenon, Mr. * Do replied that she was ‘u‘rnhotl’ healthy person, endowe with unusual intelligence and vivacity. she has two finely formed heads, as well as busts, The two bodies are nearly back to back, the spines blend- ing into one a little below the chests, People may think it strange that we speak of M'lles Christine in the sin- gular number, when it is clearly ob- servant that the two minds act inde- pendent of each other. The fact is that both heads invariably speak as one, neither head over using the plurals “we” or “us.” Another peculiarmental characteristics of the dual lady is that the two heads nover disagree, their likes and dislikes being mutual, Thus it is that o person becoming well ac- quatnted with Millie Christine soon tulls into the way of addressing her in the singular. In order to gratify the curiosity of some of your prominent physicians, we intent to invite the medical fraternity to examing the “Two-Headed Wonder” at the hotel on the day of the show’s appearance hero—next Friday.” Mr. Doris, accompanied by C.

A special London correspond- ent of Tuk Bee sends us the follow- ing verses of a comic song, which is being suug at the principal variety theaters, and even on the streets of the world's capital: One day upon a frog In a very boggy bog So poetically my pet did poetize; How romantically P spoke Of its deep sepulchiral cronk And the utterly utter beauty of its cyes, As I sat just by her side (uzing on her face with pride I alighted on some thistle so immense; 1 a shout could not restrain, Aund I soon jumped up again, For the pain was quite too utterly intense, CHokus She feeds upon the sunflower and the Yy No valgar cit of joint or plate of stew, Oh!

Correspondence of Tho Boe, Hasrings, August 12, —Political matters in Second district are begin~ ning to assume definite shape, and as Tue Ber seems to be the leading daily in this state I will, with your permission, briefly sketch out the status of things for the perusal of your roaders. In this district there are four prominent candidates for con. gress, with chances for nomination about in this order: Gaslin, Post, Laird and Switzor. While all of these men have warm friends, the people, that is the farmers and men who do not make politics a busiuess, are for a man who will 1epresent their interests and not that of a corporation, In the west Gaslin will have & pretty unani- mous support, while in the east Post will ourry considerable strength, Switzer is a good man and will get some support from all over the state, Laird at the opening of the campaign was the popular candidate, but as peo* ple have time to consider the matter he loses strength, until now he is the hindmost man in the race. Even Adas county seems determined to elect a delegation against him. In Webster county I find determ- ined opposition among some of the best men of the state.
