to enquiry or to referring the dispute to arbitration.The Standard says ;\u2014Whether Rnssia\u2019s reply be pacific or not, it must be borne in mind that the struggle of Russia and England for 8upremacy|in Asia has began.Tbe publication of a report that an agreement had been concluded between England and Turkey, under which the former receives free passage of the Dardanelles in tbe event of war, causes some concern among English diplomats.Many politicians affect disbelief of the report on tne ground of the excessive consideration given by England.The report, however, emanates from a source which has been found generally reliable.A hastily summoned Cabinet council is being held.It is said important telegrams from Lumsden and the British ambassaaor at 8t Petersburg were the cause of the speedy summons.St.Petersburg, May 2.\u2014The German Gazette states it is credibly informed that peace is assured.The present diplomatic action of England is retrograding.The Gazette,

annduncing that Russia accepted in principle England's proposal to submit to arbitration the question as to responsibility for the violation of the agreement of March 16th.The Admiralty has chartered the steamship France \u201d of the National Line, all the talking and made all explanations.The London newspaper*, which oftenest speak by ministerial inspiration, began today to disparage Gen.Lumsden and it is hinted he was purposely mistaken in his reports that the Russians had violated faith with England by occupying Puli Khisti, and that the Czar\u2019s troops had advanced upon Meruchak.It is will known that Lumsden belongs to tbe party in India, which is principally controlled by British militia officers who have never had a chance to distiuguish themselves, are desperately anxious to win recognition in battle.They see Mfeir opportunity at present, and its said Sir Peter has been their spokesman.Ou the other hand it is said that the Cabinet having found good reason to abandon their warlike attitude now save themselves by sacrificing them with bellicoae sentiments.It is stated to-night on what appears to be good authority that the report that Russia bad accepted England's proposal to have the question as to whether Russia violated tbe agreement of 17th March submitted to arbitration is untrue.A conference between Sir Edward Thornton and DeGiers is arranged for Monday, which Russian and English ministerial circles believe will lead to an amicable agree ment.The latest reliable advises from St.Petersburg hold ont the idea that the sum total of the diplomatic negotiations will be a long defensive note from DeGiers, in which Russia will make no admission of wrong on the part of Gen.Komaroff, and will suggest further negatiations but no arbitration.While this correspondence continues there is no cessation of tremendous preparations and concentration for active warfare on either side.In the diplomatic contest for alliances England is making better progress than Russia.Besides permission to pass her ships through the Dardanelles, it is said England has secured the friendly neutrality of Persia in the event of war.The Shah has already forbidden Russians from conveying warlike material across Persian territory.St.Petersburg, April 3\u2014The Minister of War has ordered the Mounted Artillery Corps of the Turkietan army to be mobilized

that the Russian atttek was unprovoked.London, May 4\u2014The Newt says the prospects for peace have been much clearer and more amply confirmed within the last forty-eight hours.Earl Granville and the Duke of Cambridge at the Royal Academy banquet spoke hopefully of a peaceful settlement of the difficulties Earl Granville had an extended conference with the Queen on Sunday.J SPEOIAu FROM OTTAWA,

Clarke\u2019s Crossinw, April 22, 1885.\u2014We are still encamped here, which makes four or five days without any advance, and the rebel, only fifty miles off, at Batochc\u2019s, down the river.Transport of supplies for our horses has given out, owing to some cause which seems to bo unexplained ; the fact, however, remains that tho animals have not seen an oat for a week.The want of some system seems to prevail, and 'consequently juet at tho moment when we should strike Riel with the greatest advantage cur hands are tied.As far as I can understand, the calculations required to explain the reason are as follows :\u2014 A load of oats say 10 cwt.leaves Troy for 10 days' trip to this place.During the journey the team of hones eat up 8 cwt.and require 8 cwt.more for the return home ; the army gets the rest.Apart from this excellent scheme of providing for the wants of our nags, the great salt plains are getting extremely hard (or soft) for travelling over, owing to the frost coming out of the ground, and for a month they will continue almost impassable.We luckily got over before the ground became too soft.At present ont eatables appear to be plentiful till tc-day, when the pork gave out, rather a drawback, considering what a blessing such an article is to those out on the prairie.The few settlers about here are ovo.-fiowing with gratitude at our coming, which they display in many ways, principally by charging ui fellows for what we can get in the shape of bread, 50 cents a loaf ; butter, $1 per pound ; milk, 50 cents per quart ; eggs, 50 cents per dozen, and other little blessings ore retailed in the same way.So if the result of the expedition is attained, viz, the saving and protection of the squatter, we will all return home happy, but alas ! ruined.It is quite safe to ray that the massacre of the whites on the Saskatchewan will not, at all events, raise the price of provisions.Tue poor little sheet-iron box called a stove, in our tent, cost $10, and a waterlogged fragment of rotten telegraph post was purchased from an over-obliging teamster for $1.After lighting, the temperature waa high in proportion.The Saskatchewan is not pretty in any way, but similar to the rivers in the North-West it zig-zags its muddy course like a deep ditch, with a current of about four miles an hour downwards to the forks, where, I suppose, it increases in depth and width.Here, at its deepest point, it is only 9 feet.I had the pleasure of a lung talk to-day with Air.Kerr, one of the two brothers who were taken prisoners aud escaped from the rebels.He appears a most clear-headed, clever and determined man, without any great dread of Riel and his followers, speaking of them with contempt.Regarding their organization and arms, he states that at present they cannot possibly, all told, be more than 250.He and his younger brother are the proprietors of a general store at Batoche\u2019s Crossing, where Riel now is, and from his dealings with the half-breeds has become fully acquainted with their doings.His first introduction to the people os rebels, was a few days before the Duck Lake fight, which took piece about two miles from hia store, when Louis Riel came into the shep, .loudly demanding who was in charge.Air.Clark remaiked that he was, Riel than raid he wanted all the arms in the place and ammunition, saying at the same time to charge everything, as it would all be paid for.After thisjfthev came in, selecting any articles they required on tick.The The day following Mr.Kerr went after some cattle with his brother, locking up his place cf business, Oa his way back|ho met crowds of Breeds and Indians carrying articles of all descriptions which he at once recognized aa belonging to him, and on arriving found that Riel\u2019s system of giving credit had proved too seductive to the public generally and a complete sacking of his establishment had taken place.He then put up at the house of a half-breed,and while there was arrested and taken before tho Council charged with having given informât on regarding the movements of the rebels and having attempted to remove hie men cattle away from Batoche.These charges were trumped up by two or three ruffians, ringleaders, desirous of getting out of the way any witnesses against them in future, and Who also owed Kerr money and had in their possession some of his cattle.No one will deny that these were sufficient reasons for seeking their death, but the Council released the prisoners, Riel himself being present.The Kerrs were placed on parole with a limit of five milts.Just after this the fight took place and from bis account it was more of a scrimmage.A magistrate with some police with two guns, 7-pounders, met, in a narrow winter-road, a few of tho rebels with Gabriel Dumout.They met and while talking the magistrate said he had come to arrest them and placed his hand on Dumont\u2019s shoulder, who raised his rifle and struck out.An Indian who was present at this attempted to snatch a rifle or revolver from one ot the police, and waa shot dead by another standing by.Then the fight began and lasted only a few minutes, during which four or five rebels were killed aud two of the whites, Dumont and his men ran back and were joined by Riel with the others who were coming on.Together they fonnd (he police putting their dead into their sleighs, and then Kerr says about 15 or 18 shots wore fired, principally by Dumont himself, who is a good shot, and was apparently at close (juarters.At this the police retired and the half-breeds did not follow.Next day Riel sent word to Crozier to oome and bury hia dead, Some white prisoners that were in the rebels\u2019 hands were then seized by the Indians to be killed in revenge for the death of the brave wbo fell at first.These men were rescued by Riel and protected from outrage.It would appear from tho details that the affair was more of a scrimmage than a fight, as both parties apparently met with the idea of talking.Dumont, when he returned the second time, just out of revenge, and being a cool hand, shot moat of the citizens and police himself, and only enough to satisfy himself.It appears strange that more shots were not fired the second time, and that the half-breeds did not follow up their advantage.Kerr says that many of the rebels were terribly ex-cituJ and frightened, and further is of the opinion that if Col.Irvine and Crozier had returned together they could easily have crushed the whole affair.The half-breed women all maintain that the business will end like the first Red River rebellion\u2014by all the men 1 running away.His description of Riel savors of that of u religious prank.They have cartoons of him among the half-breeds as standing in the thick of the fight with the cross in his hand safe from harm.\tHe boasts that with only his crucifix he defeated the police and will do the same with a|l comers.Our wires were cut a few miles from camp last night, but whether the enemy did it or not seems to bs a mystery, so I suppose you will have us all wiped out until the repairs are made.We can\u2019t get correot reports for ten miles, so your rumours must be startling.The western or left column is now camped opposite us across the river, and are now waiting like us for supplies to move.This afternoon Lord Alel-gund with some of the scouts struck some of the enemy\u2019s about two miles from camp (left column) aud chased them 15 miles, the run was so hard, that our men tailed out with only two or three left.The rebels were joined by seven or eight mere, so our no n pulled up after wounding one of the enemy.Our orders are tiuw out for a move in the morning and we expect the carts in to-night, Fooqy, (Official.)
