London,February 18.—The Paris
correspondent of the Times tele-
graphs the intelligence received that
Triuee Bismarck, on Tuesday, will
be able to announce that owing to
Emperor William’s friendly inter-
ventions, Russia has resolved to
maintain an attitude which cannot
imperil the peaceful solution of the
existing difficulties. According to
the latest information England and
Russia will maintain their respect-
ive military and naval positions du-
ring the session of the conference,
no other power will enter the Dar-
danelles lest it should increase the
complications.
The Daily News’ Constantinople dis
patch of Sunday says: Russia’s ad-
vance guards have not transgressed
terms settled by armistice in conse-
quence of withdrawal of the fleet to
Mudavia. The Russians will n >t,< c *u-
pythe suburbs of Constantinople.
Advices from Adrianople state it is
believed the peace negotiations will
be completed on Wednesday, when
the Russians will withdraw from
•Roumelia, unless Englrnd makes
some new move. The withdrawal
of the Eussbins fsom Roumelia
seems improbable. The Daily Tele-
graphs Vienna special reports that
the recent cabinet council decided
on a partial mobilization of the Aus-
trian army, if the conference ques-
tion was not settled within a fort-
night. At a subsequent council it
was decided to refer the question to
Prince Bismarck and his good offi-
ces, and resulted in the Russians
consenting to an early meeting of
the congress. All danger of the
Austro-Russian conflict being thus
avoided, the chances of an Anglo-
Austrio alliance are greatly dimin-
ished.
In the House of Lords to-night
LordsStrothder and Camphell'mov-
ed that in the opinion of this house
a stems of the armistice between
Russia and the Porte are such as to
Justify her majesty’s government in
taking every precaution to discour-
age the encroachments by which the
treaties of 1856 and 1871 are un-
Lord Fratheden and Campbell not
touring up his motion that the terms
of the armistice justifies the govern-
ment m taking every precaution to
discourage encroachments by which
the treaties of 1856 and 1871 are un-
fortunately threatened by the gov-
ernment. Lord Derby said he could
not discuss the armistice.
In the House of Lords this after
ternoon Lord Derby read a tele-
gram from Layard, ambassador at
Constantinople, denying for him-
self and Sever Pasha" the statement
made some days ago by the Daily
News’ Adrianople correspondent
that Sever Pasha declared that Tur-
key had been misled and encourag-
ed to fight by the promise of English
support, particularly by Lord Bea-
consfield and Mr. Layard.
In reply to a question of Lord
Granville, Lord Derby responded
that Vice-Admiral Hornsby had
moved his fleet to Mondania on ac-
count of the better anchorage
there, and also better telegraphic
communications with Constantino-
ple, and that there were no further
advices regarding the Russian ad-
vance on Constantinople. Infor-
mation had bfefin received regarding
a possible advance on Gallipoli, but
the government had not had time
to consider it,
A special to the Times from Pera
says the porte informed the powers
that the Greeks again crossed the
.frontier near the town of Ortia in
Albania. The porte sent 1000 men
to recruit the invasion.

In the supreme court No. 189 and
four other cases, Yestman et al vs.
the New Orleans Savings Bank in
error to circuit court for the dis-
trict of Louisiana. In this case the
coui’t sustains the finding below,
that the defendants in these cases
having come into possession of secu-
rities belonging to the bankrupts in
the regular course of business. For a
valuable consideration they are en-
titled to hold them as pledges until
the obligations they secure are fully
paid the substance. The decision is
that the assignee in bankruptcy
does not by reason of his appoint-
ment as such become seized in en-
tirety as trustee of every article of
property in which the bankrupt has
any interest, but only of such as isun-
affected by vested rights in others.
The pledgees in the case had acquired
a special property in their hands

fusal to prove their claims before the
bankruptcy court affirmed. Mr. J us-
tice Harlin delivered the opinion.

rency with authority to report any
