TBE AFGHAN D1SPDTE. lonuir That UIINSUI has Agreed t Arbitration. URL GRANULE THINKS PEACE PROB:BL The War Preparation* -HI tio Bravely On. ENGLAND MAKES MANY ALLIES A last (Sunday) uighi'g London oabl says: While ths news it all in a pacin direction, tbe situation in one of great uu certainty. The report from Russia tba the Czar has accepted Euglaud's prcposa to submit tbe question in dispute regardiu tbe violation of tbs agreement cf Marc 17th M arbitration seems incredible. Diplo mats here believe that the reported acqui esoeuoe is only a Russian dodge to gai time, and that before the Czar's acoeptanc will come the report cf tbs capture Herat. Ot course it is just poBuole tba Bnasia really desires peace and is prepare to take thia path out of the complication but after all ber blunter, after ber im partineut disregard cf Earl Granville' request*, aud her contemptuous reluaa to open tbe Penjdeb affair, this suddeu humility baa a suspicions air about it Whatever hopes the Ministry bas o peace, there is no relaxation iu tbe pre parationg for war. Thin c mu try was uevei so well prepared for war an at tbe preaeni moment. Iu the diplomatic contest for alliances Kj^land is proving more auccesa fnl tbao Russia. A very friendly cor respoudeuoe is in progress with Austria Turkey bas opened ber Dardanelles to Eoglinb war ships, an alliance defensivi andcffeniive is all but concluded witb Italy, tbe friendly neutrality of Persia baa been obtained, and the Sbah baa already forbidden Russia from conveying war material across his territories. Tbs oabls newt oorreapondent at Bl Petersburg telegraphs tbat Gen. Van- oovtki, tbe Russian Minister of War, has completed tbe mobilization of tbe artillery of tbs army of Turkestan. Many Cossack regiments will bs sent to Central Asia, and ths railway companies bavs been ordered to provide transportation facilities for immense quantities of ammunition, mitrail leuae gnne and other war so plies. It is reported tbat ths Russian Mediterranean squadron has been ordered to return to tbe Baltic Sea, and to anchor off Rsvel, on the south side of tbs Gulf of Finland. The Admiralty baa chartered tbe steam tbip Francs, of tbs National Line. A special Cabinet Council was held yeaterday afternoon, and considered a iespatch from Bir Edward Tbornton, announcing tbat Russia had accepted tbe principle of tbe Eoglisb proposal to tub- salt to arbitration ths question of reeponei bill ty for tbe violation of tbe agreement of March 17 in. Earl Granvill* stated Isst evening, after the Cabinet Council, that from it* latest adviots the Government had every reason to bslitvs a [aoino aettlsmsnt will be arrived at witb Russia. The Nnti says Rnuia's ant we r will prob- ably be a formal aooe pianos of tbs EngliHb nrcposalf. Tbs Czar has intimated to England that he earnestly deaiiet peace. It tbe proposal to arbitrate Russia's alleged disregard of ths convention ol March 17tb is accepted, tbe Joint Commie sion will delimitate the frontier without waiting for tbe decimon of tbe arbitrator. Tbs disputed territory meanwhile will be considered neutral. Tbe AW. rejoices tbat prospects of peace are brigbter than at any time during the negotiations. Tbs publication of tbs report tbat an agreement bas been concluded between England and Turkey, under which ih former secures ths free passage of the Dardanelles in ths event of war, nnj-tea enme concern among English diplomats. Many politicians affect a disbslief of tbe report on tbs ground of tbe excessive con sideration given by England. Tbe report, however, emanate* from a source which has been found generally reliable. Bhips of the first naval reserve have been completely equipped with torpedo net* and machine gong. Tbe chartering of additional transports and cruisers continues. Tbe ateamer Bute of Nebraska ha* been chartered as an armed cruiser, and tbs steamers Pelican and Duke of Devonshire as troopship*. Tbe authorities have chartered altogether 140 merchant vessels, and have made arrangements for the conveyance to India by mail tteamsrs of troops to alrengthen the Indian garrison*. The first contingent atari* on Wednesday. The Admiralty's arrangements provide tor tbe immediate despatch of 16,000 troops to India if needed. The reserves going to India have been ordered to bs in readiness in a fortnight. Tbe Ameer baa ssnt troops to occupy ths Ardoben Psss, to prevent a Ruuian sur- prise ol Herat by tbat route. Tbe Czar bas sent 3 000 gendarme* to Merv. Tbe OetmanOaietU Mates it is credibly informed tbat peace is assured. Tbe present diplomatic action of England is a retrograde movement, which she seeks to make a* decently as possible.

The face was badly dis- olored and bloated. The trunk waa a> ommon wooden one, and evidently bad not Men used before. It arrived from Chicago lie morning but no person called to claim t. Tbe baggage master noticed a peculiar tnell when it was unloaded, but no alten- ion was paid to it until this evening. Tbe tody bad been beat almoul double and rosd into ths trunk. A hemp cord was rawn so tightly around the neck, arms nd leg* that it had cut deeply into tbe esb. Tbere were no marks of violence on ie body, and there was nothing to furnish clue to identity except an international money order in favor of Filippo Carvso for 2':, drawn at Chicago, February 24th.

He did not Bi-e wny a distinction should be made between marritd and unmarried women iu regard to the franchise. Hi* views on tbe provisions tf the Bill would be found ia bin former speech on this Bill. After recess, Mr. Fleming i-aid it seemed logical tbat if properly was to be tbs bams of the franchise only one should vote on tbe property. It was stid that if women were to vote they must be allowed to represent their olats io Parliamtnt. Tbsrs was a way out ol this difficulty for ths Premisr. Tbe boo. gentleman could appoint them to tbe other branch of tbe Legislature where they would find oontenial oompanioniihip, particularly if they were leaders of a certain ags, in fact ii was wbieperad tbat some bad already O'ept into tbat branch of tbe Legislature. (Laughter.) If tbat did not commend itsell to ths bon. gsotleman he might make Senators elective by a vote of women. In all terionsnsst hs believed that if tbe franchise were given to women it would have generally a good effect upon politic* and upon public life in Canada. Mr. MoCraney speaking, aa be declared, from an old settled conviction, spoke strongly in favor of female suffrage. At preient there were women of great ability who owned property, conducted men and paid wagss to men who wsre their em- ployes*. These men had votes, but tbeir employers had not. Hs gave several iu staLoes of this kind within bis own know- ledge. He was sure tbat women oonld be able to give valuable assistanos in conduct- ing the affairs of tbe country. If a parlia- ment of women oould not do more work than this Parliament bad done tbis ssssion it would be a standing disgrace to woman- kind. He read from the views expressed by the Chief Justice of Washington Territory, where female suffrage is the rule, declaring thai so far as it had gons tbe experience in favor of female svfftags. He be- lieved that votes should bs given not only to unmarried women and widows, but mar- ried women as well. Mr. McNeil! opposed tbe principle of woman soffrags at soms Isngth.
