The Hilton trophy, won by the rifle men of Savanr.fih at the seventh annual shoot r f the New Jersey RtfL.mrn Association, last sum mer at bea Girt, which has been expected in Atlant 1 for some tiuif,-, has not beei: received in the city. In a letter from the adjutant general Captain Oscar Brown, re ceivt d several days avo, it was ata’ed that tha trophy was shipped on the JBth of this month. This letter contained the key and ba? been in the possession of Captain Brown since then. Captain Biown has made a number of inquiries a: tne office of the Sjuthern Express Company, but they know nothing of it. No evidence has yet been pro duced bv the assignee that the tro phy has been shipped <. r even sent to the office of the Adams Express Company, as the letter from Wash ton states. • The agents of the express com pany in Atlanta say they are posi tive that the parcel has neve, been placed in their office in Wasb. ington, and if it had a waybill w< uld have been received in Atlan ts, which is not be case. Captain Brown made specia investigation at the office of the express c mpany yesterday and with the aid of Agent Montgomery, of the company, examined every thing in the office and found that ibe trophy was not there. ‘ The parcel has not been deliv red to the Washington office,’" said Mr. Mon'g iraery, “and we are positive that it has not left that city. “If die package had been lost A'ith us we w uld have had the .vuybill and ;h) assignor in Wash ii glon c<'uld show a receipt from 'he company tnat he placed it in the office.” Oap’ain Brown agreed with Mr. Montgomery and said that he be lieved so ne oversight had occurred and that the triphy had not been sent. The letter to Captain Brown stab s that the adjutant iu Wash ington was advised that the tr. ph) had been shipped. The reason foi this is not known. The trophv was v n last summer by the Favanmil iflcmen and they were entitled to it at that time but the sending of it to the winners has been uu >.ccountably delayed for severs! months.

Ihe president has been informed of the sac’s from sources whoss credibility cannot be doubted. Hs has gone to the L ng'h of big con stitutional power in calling the state of affaire to the attention of the American pe pie.

It is he ped by the de partment of state£that the Amer ican people will come to ' the re lief and that promptly, by sub scriptions of money clothing and supplies of various kinds. The newspapers are expected to lend a generous aid in carrying forward -his m venaent. The machinery for distribution has been provided by the state de partment and Consul General Lee has undertaken, with the aid of the American consular officers in Cuba, to give personal attention to the allevia'ion of distress by the distribution of the gifts of the American people One line of steamers plying be ween New York and Havana—the Ward line—it is said has under •aked to forward any contributi ds of goods to General Lee at Havana and it is believed that the Amer ican railroads will do their pait by carrying the goods to the sea board.
