One Shipment to California That Proved a Failure. CHICAGO, Iun., April 11.—The ship- ment of a carload of California flowers to the Chicago market for the Easter trade proved an unprofitable experiment. Three- fourths of the carload arrived in Chicago in a worthless condition. Out of 25,000 || callas less than 4000 of them were found fit for market. In the shipment there were several thousands of date and fan palms in good condition, which would | | have been in demand had they arrived be- form Palm Sunday. The only flowers in the consignment that will bring a good price were 10,000 yellow marguerites, which will readily sell at retail at$3a hundred. - CLEVELAND IS GENEROTUS.

BOSTON, Mass., April 11,—As an out- come of the apology made by Dr. Lansing in the Cleveland episode, Epjscopal Bos- ton citizens felt that some #llow towns- man ought to call upon Dr. Larsing and demand an apology for the statements he made. With thisend in view an apology iand proper reparation was forwarded to the President, and to-day the following re- ply was received: WASHINGTON, D. €., April 11.—While his so-called retraction is an aggravation of his original offense, I am willing that his further punishment should be left to his conscience and the contzmpt of his neighbors and the American people.

LONDON, Exe., April 11.—Regarding the report from New York that the British sloop-of-war Wild Swan has joined the Royal Arthur, a ship of the British squadron, at Pana- ma, preparatory to the expected de- parture for Corinto, Nicaragua, to enforce the ultimatum of Great Britain, ‘de- manding $75,000 indemnity for the expul- sion from Nicaragua of Mr. Hatch, the British Consular agent at Bluefields,” it was stated at the Admiralty to-day, in re- ply to questions, that no orders had been given the Wild Swan or the Royal Arthur which would warrant the statements to- day. The Times to-day, in an editorial on the | sitnation, says: “If we are compelled to | collect customs Nicaragua will, presum- | ably, have to pay the costs of collection in addition to the indemnity.

A message has been sent to Canyon City | for a bloodhound, which will be put on the trail of the robbers if they are not cap- | tured before it arrives. | It bas beenlearned that the $16,000 pack- { age was a consignment to the Bimetallic | Bank, to be used in paying miners. The | robbers crossed over Cow Mountain, and near Gillette discarded the stolen horses | and took a horse and light buegy they had | secreted in the timber and drove away | toward Alhambra. As soon as the course was determined word was sent to this place and fifty heav- ly armed men cut across the country on | horseback toward High Park, where they | hope to intercept the robbers. Over 500 | men are scouring the country, many of whom know every inch of the gronnd. Driver Robert Smith has three bad scalp wounds, and is very weak from loss of blood. He was not able to give a good | description of the robbers, but they were | seen alongside the road shortly before the | robbery by Ed Hull of the Grand Transfer | Compapy, who describes them as follows: One was 5 feet 8 inches in height, weighing about 155 pounds, 'and wore a dark derby {hat and a dark brown overcoat. The other was about 5 feet 6 inches in height, weighing about 145 pounds, with brown mustache and wore blue overalls and a white soft hat. DENVER, Coro., April 11.—J. L. Stubbs of the Wells-Fargo Express Company went | to Cripple Creek to-night. He had received but a meager acconnt of the robbery be- fore his departure, as the Cripple Creek | agent went with the officers in pursuit of the | robbers. Mr. Stubbs said he did not know ure-box of the robbed wagon, but he thought the sum reported from the camp as stolen was exaggerated. CROSSED CHANDAR PASS, Hardships Endured by the British Forces Under Colonel Kelly. Lieutenants Fowler and Edwards Captured by the Treachery of Natives. CALCUTTA, Inp1a, April 11.—A dispatch from Simla, dated at noon to-day, says Colonel Kelly, commander of the British forces, in attempting to reach Chitral from Gilgit since March 25, has succeeded in crossing Chandar Pass, and was about sixty miles from Chitral on April 7. The march of the troops was an arduous and orilliant military exploit. The pass is 12,000 feet high and impassable to beasts of burden, consequently the pioneers had 10 carry field and mountain guns during the last seven miles through deep snow, with the weather intensely cold: The troops suffered from frost bites. When these advices were forwarded to Simla the enemy was in a position twenty miles distant from the force commanded by Colonel Kelly, and an engagement is ex- pected. It is learned that Lieutenants Fowler and Edwards, belonging to the British garrison at Chitral, reported missing for some time past, were invited to the polo match at Reshun, where they were treach- erously seized and their escort, consisting of twenty Bengal sappers, was overpowered by superior numbefs and slain. Another report says Lieutenant Fowler was killed by a foster-brother of Amir Ul Muik, the present ruler of Chitral, who assumed the rank of Mehtar after having murdered his l how much money there was in the treas- | ashocking state of affairs.
