A numlrnlmembrnat once put lnterro- nations to tbc sowrnnient concerning the trustworthiness of both Sir Peter Lumsden and Gen. Komarcff. Mr. Gladstone answered In detail, stat ing In subitance tliat the dispute as to the Penideb Incident had never been aques- tion oi the trial of any < lUcer, but one which coneerned the honor of the twogov- emments involved in the March agree ment. It was not in the power of either partv to this agreement to claim the ex r elusive right of interpretation. The Break er believed the agreement would be found infliciently clear. Lord Randolph Churchill, the young Coniervative leader, now arose and an- nonneed at once an attack upon the gov ernment. Hefargued that the announce ment lust mace on behalf ot the govern ment was a terrible piece of news to tbcue anxious for the security of the Indian empire. l“Tbe government," cried Lord Churchill,‘‘have made a base, cowardly surrender of every point at Issue to RoMlft. I greatly fear that as a result we have lost India." Lord Rindolph. continuing, said he pro tested against the conduct of the govern ment in submitting the vote of credit Ia*t Moudav without giving the slighest inuf- cation of their pod y and o* the exact point at liwua with Russia. The la'ter, he continued, had been for a long tiro* breaking the agreement of 1873 with respect to Central Asia, «nd * in regard to the A f ghans, Lord Churchill instated that the Kus«ians long ago passed the boundary which they had promised to respect as the rightful ironlier line of tne Ameer’s dominions. In 1882 a series of pledges were voluntarily given by Russia concerning the boundary, and all of them had been deliberately broken. Several niemh«ra questioned Mr. Glad stone, but failed to elicit any f formation. Lord Randolph Churchi 1 feared that when tho news should become known in lodli England would lose all ‘lie respset. sym painjr and loyalty of the natives. He d* dared that the history of Russia's negotiations with England was a record of treachery, fraud and falsehood. It was r.ot possible to K ide security by any agreement with i.

The Chinese commission ers have been ready for past several months to begin work of delimitation, and the failure of the Russian commissioners to meet them has caused the Chinese government to fear that tho same course pursued by Rasda rest ectlrg the Afghan frontier will be fol lowed in this case.

The latter was not re siled because he wa* In com mand of the Russian forces, while Sir Peter Lumsden bad been employed in a purely civil capacity. Lumsden, the premier added, had not been recalled, but had been consulted upon tbe subject, and in conformity with his views had been re quested to return to England, as it bad been decided to carry on in London future communications with Russia ab ut inaiu points iu tbe Afghan frontier. Boih Sir Peter Lumsden and Col. 8<ewart bad been directed to come to London. Th* Post this morning, in an editorial, concludes that Peter Lumsden, finding his advice disregarded and tbe disput ed territory ceded to Russia, has resigned. The Post believes Gladstone is shrewd trough to eee that ho will gain only disres pect by h s self-abasements. The Post’a Berlin correspondent learns that Russia made It a point in the peace agreement that England shall occupy Port Hamilton. 8lr Peter Lumsdcu will appoint agents on the Afghan frontier to watch tne movements of Rossis. The Telegraph in an editorial urges Con ftervatives to agree to tbe vote ot credit. It says the danger is not yet passed. London, May 5.—It is olllcially explained th*»t8ir Peter Lumsden has not been re called from Afghanistan in the diplomatic sense of the term, but has been summon ed to London to advise the government upon technical matters regarding the de limitation of the frontier. RKFEKKNCB OF TBE FENJDKH MATTES. Earl Granville, foreign minister, in the House of Lords to-day statea on behalf of tbe government that ne could conoeive of nothing better than referring the dispute over the Penjdeh incident, involving the honor of two officers to the decision of a bird party in whom each side had perfect confidence. In this wav the whole matter could be closed honorably for both aides. ANOTHER CONFERENCE. Baron de Btaal, Russian ambassador, and Earl Granville h«d a long conference •o-day on the question of what guarantees should be promised against a Russian ad vance on Herat. It ia reported that Earl Granville proposed tbe making o' a treaty pledging Russia against afurtner advance and recognizing an English protectorate in Afghanistan, dome uncertainty remains in diplomatic and official circles as to the maintenance o peace. Naval and milita ry work will continue until both branches are fully supplied with stores. COMMISSIONS! RETURNS HOME. M. Lessar, Russian commissioner, in tends In tne absence of further orders to return to Russia forthwith. Advices from Cabul say that the Ameer has ordered troops from Candahar to escort tbe guns presented by England to Herat. THE GOVERN MENT CONDEMNED. The Marquis of Salisbury in opening tbe ContenrativecInbatHackoey last night, made a speech in which he attacked the policy of the government. He expressed tbe opinion that tbe whole eleven million pounds had already been spent in Egypt. The government, he said, made an error in negotiating with Russia before tbe frontier waa fixed. Recarding the froothr ques tion, he said England had lost prestige with the natives of India, who would say that Russia always advance, while Eng land always apologists and retreads. London, May C.—The recall of Rlr Peter Lumaden has created a general feeling ot uneasiness, ae it is expected to have an adverts influence on the patriotism of the natives of India, wko will consider his re- call a further concession to Russia. The fitandard aaja: "We must consider it goed luck if tbe whole commission is not recalled." No ne vra ia obtainable nf the appointment of an arbitrator. The King of Belgium is spoken of in Beilin as tbe potentate most likely to be cnosen.

Assistant District Attorney Fellows made the opening address and gave a •ketch of Ihe crime at some length. He claimed a conviction of assault Iu the first degree, and an assault with intent to kill. Capum Phelan then took the stand and told the well-known story of the assault on him by Short. On cross examination Pbtlan denied having made any threats towards Ilossa while In Henley's saloon. Oa the way down to Rossa’s office the wit ness changed his pistol from hie hip pock et to his overcoat pocket, and he said that he would teach Rosea that he nor aoy one else conld pnblhh things abont him with impunity. He had been in the habit of sending snbicrlptions to Roeea. He admitted that he elweya carried a pis tol, and had three on hia person in court. He produced the weapons and placed them on the judge’s desk. The witness admitted that he once used a digger on a bunco man, and also stabbed a man in Kansu City. The captain denied that he ever bad fought a duel. He waa challenged once bnt the challenge was withdrawn. Other witnesses to the assault were ex- nlned, bnt their testimony developed nothing new.

[special correspondence.} Atlanta, May 4.—It haa taken some time to reach a decision as to the diaposl tton of the new issue of Georgia bonds. I at©vitally intireited, and there seems to] be no need of haste—so that no mistake is n ade. The Governor, Treasurer and tbe Attor ney-General were close closeted to-day and till a lato boar to-night trying to get through with toe matter. It will bs finally determined to night or to-morrow morning who will get tbe bonds. It has been defi nitely settled tbat the new bond will be a 4X per cent, instead of *■ 5. and the engraver baa been notified by telegraph to to eo print it. There is also no doubt that the whole Issue will be told to one Derty, and better atill the whole ii- sue of 4X per ceuta will be disposed of at a premium. From what I can see of the drift of things the whole issue will proba bly be taken at that figure and upon the terms imposed by the State by Fretl WollTe and bis associates.
