THU SVAII (141 IIS IV lU ltOl'K. UK&MAXY AND TRANCE TO KI NPW TUK CONFLICT. New York, April 10. The Herald this morning, discusses at length edi torially the war cloud iu Europe, and considers that renewal of war be tween Germany and France would in volve other nations. The cause of this state of uproar is that tho late Franeo-Prussiun was an unjust war and ended in unjust peace. Ger many’s nttitnde towards Belgium is threatning and the Herald argues that Germany fearing to offend civil ization by direct war on Frunee, will precipitate a conflict with Belgium. An attack upon Belgium is an attack upon France, and that would proba bly bring to one side or the other as allies England, Russia and Italy. The next war iu Europe will boa war of allies, and the Hrrabl predicts that Germany's next victory will not be easily won. A Pcrllou. Voyage lent-, the Kiiwlish Channel. London, April 10. Captain Paul Boynton started early this morning, on his during feat of crossing the channel from Dover to France, clad in his improved life-saving apparatus. The weather is clear and favorable for the accomplishment of the exper iment. An immense crowd is assem bled on the river front at Dover, to witness the departure of the voyager, who was heartily cheered as he left the shore. The channel is alive with yachts and other craft. A steamer wKi specially chartered and accom panied Boynton, with a pilot. At -2 r. M., tie was proceeding safely on his voyage, apparently but little fa tigued, and rapidly upproaching the French coast, with every prospect of successfully accomplishing the un dertaking. He will land at Bologne. HE ARRIVES SAFELY. London, April 10. Capt. Paul Boynton made a successful voyage across the channel, he reached Bou logne late this evening but little fa tigued comparatively. A large as sembly of spectators was present and accorded him an enthusiastic recep tion. lurrrnsnl Westward KinlKralliui. KiscitU to Daily Times, by R. A A. Line.] Omaha, Nebraska, April to. The rush of emigration to Nebraska, Wy oming, Utah and the Pacific Coast this spring is enormous, and contin ues without abatement. The Union Pacific Railroad is compelled to em ploy the passenger equipments of connecting roads oast to move the |ieople westward as fast as they ar rive here. Two and sometimes three emigrant trains are dispatched daily. Thirty-live hundred emigrants were carried from here during the first seven days of this month. Eight hundred emigrants were hero yester day, and left by special train last night. During the month of March, California alone received to,OUO of these settlers. This travel is exclu sive of the regular first-clues travel, which is also proportionately large. It is a noticeable fact that cast bound travel is light at present. The roads arc compelled to haul back compara tively empty trains. Freight is also accumulating here so fast that the Union Pacific Railroad finds it almost impossible to keep it clear. The earn ings at th in time show an increase of about sixty per cent, over lust spring. . ♦ . Iliiinaxr lu (lie Wheat Crap in the West. Sj.-Mal to tin! Timkh by H. .V A. Mae.] Ghicaho, April fit-The J'iinr *, this morning, published telegraph reports from Wisconsin, Indiana, Kansas, Colorado, Missouri, Michigan and Minnesota, from which it appears that, tlie Winter wheat lias been badly killed in many places, and less Spring wheat Is being sowed this season, in consequence of the lateness of the season. The average of wheat seems to be very much less than last year, though by saving the product this year it will not fall below that of last year. Indiana and Wisconsin prom ise better for Winter wheat, while Michigan, Minnesota, and iowa (lo not report favorably. The grasshop pers arc feared in Minnesota, and the chinchbugs in Missouri and Kansas. There is a disposition in all the wheat growers to rush in as much Spring wheat as possible, and with favorable weather the prospects will undoubt edly be good. (). L. Parker, now in charge of the chief grain Inspector’s office, in this city, will probably succeed Inspector ! Harper, who seems unable to explain ; the deficiency in his accounts. , HK<* in Hfklmi River* Dent rur lion of Fro pert y. Minneapolis, Min., April 10.

The market opened at closing prices of last evening, with some show of steadiness. Large blocks of futures were offered to first bidders, and cotton seemed to have no friends at all. That there is a combined movement to break the mar ket there seems to be no doubt. The amount of cotton thrown on the market for the last throe days is stupendous. It is a palpable fact that, well-known parties who were holders of large amounts of futures not only have sold out, but wont heavy short. This makes the position of cotton more healthy when a reaction sets in. Re ceipts at the ports for the day are rather large, and of course they were not intended to improve matters. Everybody is selling now with the. hope of buying cheaper later on. How soon u reaction will take place is an open question, be ing completely demoralized at this unexpected turn of the market, Between 12 and 1 o'clock i*. m. there was a reg ular stampede, and everybody was rushing to sell cotton. May deliveries touched 16 17-16, and June 16 13-16, short notice; 200 bales were bought for export as low as 16',,. After 1 o'clock there was a little more steadiness, which became actu ally an improvement of 3-32 lu prices, and May deliveries sold at 16 17-32, while 16?£ and half brakerage was bid.
