Augusta, Maine, Dec. 29. It is the general opinion that Governor Garcelon will not submit to the Supreme Court the question propounded by Governor Mor rill. The Republicans will be prepared for this and present the questions through a majority of the members of the last Senate, as it is thought such proceedings would conform to the law. The disposition is to exhaust every legal means before others are tried. Mayor JNasn, ot this city, will to-day address a letter to Governor Garcelon, urging him not to call out the militia on the assembling of the Legislature, as that would provoke the bringing of a force on the other side, He will state that the extra police force, provided by the city, is amply able to preserve the public peace. V. v. Baiter applied Hub alternoon at the Secretary of State's office for authority to examine the returns from Framing- ton. We was answered by Counselor l ogg in the negative, which waB accompanied by a profane epithet. Governor Garcelon went to Belfast today, to attend a meeting, called to sus tain the course of the Governor and tiou, after denouncing the action of the Republicans, concludes as follows: We pledge our earnest and active sup port to the constituted authorities to make treason harmless and punish traitors. We earnestly deBire peace, but we will bear arms, if necessary, and see that the Constitution and the laws of the State be observed, Banoor, Dec. 29. Adjutant General S. T. Leavitt arrived here, to-day, and this evening Joseph L. Smith, Fusion candidate for Governor, and other prominent Fusionists, have been at his hotel, it is supposed, in conference with the Adjutant General. It is reported the conference is in relation' to the arms at the State Arsenal, and that they will be re moved to Augusta to-morrow. WASHINGTON. i Tbe liitllnn Question Discussed. Washington, Dec. 29. Representative Belford, of Colorado, had an interesting interview with Secretary Schurz to-day on the Indian question, and especially with reference to the failure of the Utes to deliver up those engaged in the Meeker massacre, which failure has occasioned some uneasiness at the Interior Department.General Hatch had telegraphed that he would brine five chiefs from the Southern Agency to Indian Creek, and wanted to know whether he should bring them to Washington, This telegram led to the interview. Judge Belford was in favor of bringing them on in the hope that they might agree to tne removal ot the tribe to tbe Nintah Reservation, and the Secretary was oi me same opinion. The present relation of the Indians to the treaty was then discussed. It was conceded that the hostile Whit) River Utes had forfeited their treaty rights and were to be dealt with as thongh no treaty had ever been made with them. Judge Belford, however. took the more advanced position that the tribe should be treated as a unit He argued that they refused as a tribe to deliver up the Indians encased in the massacre, and that although all were not originally concerned in the war on Thorn- burgh and the massacre at the Agency they were accessories after the fact, and -civ ua cuiiiy oh we uugiuuiparticipants. The Secretary, in reply, said he would make a careful Btndy of the treaty; that lb who punnium ine uumy requireu me tribe to deliver up those making war, and unit a lauure 10 uo so abrogated tbe treaty. Both agreed that these Utes should be removed to the Uintah Reserva tion, across the border line of Colorado HUU I uvu, nwuio lug llllc UI VUlUmUU Council. A Bimilar meeting was held in Utah Territory, and that if they were this evening in Rockland. not removed the trouble would be likelv lhe Governor sent lor the Mayor this to occur in the spring.

General Grant and wife made a social call this morning upon Mrs. Hayes and afterward spent an hour or two in visiting the departments. In the evening General and Mrs. Grant were entertained at dinner by Mr. and Mrs. Levi P. Morton, of New York, the other guests being Chief Justice Waite, Secretary Evarts, General and Mrs. Beale, ueneral uarheld, Admiral Ammen, Geu- weather. A report comes from Toledo that General Steedman has been won over to the Tilden crowd. This announce ment might seem to be something in the nature of a miracle were it not coupled with the statement that the General has been to New York and had an interview with the sage of Gramercy Park, which has a tendency to weaken any impressions that there might be of the marvelous in this little episode. Our dispatches from Maine morning indicate that the Democracy have the military of that State under marching orders, hut for what purpose is not so publicly proclaimed. Gov ernor Garcelon has also refused to sub- the Capital, or make preparations for arming them. He thought the citizens of AuguBta would bear Mm out in these assurances. The Governor talked quite freelv. and informed the Mayor that he had a great dif like of the idea of bringing troops here, and should not do it if peace could be maintained in any other way. It would be his duty to preserve order and prevent intorterence with merahera ot the Legislature. lhe Uovernor has decided not to submit to the Supreme Court the questiona pro pounded by Mr. Morrill. This is ob tained on good authority, though it will not be put into writing before to-morrow. nf Pnt,avlvnnia flatiaftni. AllioAn Unn Jay A. Hubbcll, Hon. George B.

The manager of the Forth British railway, telegraphing from Lenchars at four this morning, lays : "Several large girders, along with the lost train from Edinburgh, were precipitated into the river last night. There were nearly 300 passengers, beside the company servants, all of whom are believed to have perished." 'A dispatch from Edinburg, dated at four o'clock this morning, says: A portion of the bridge which fell consisted of Beveral large supercabent girders. At the navigable part of the river, which averages from forty to forty-five feet in depth, the train would fall about eighty-eight feet before reaching the water. Some time elapsed before the nature of the disaster was ascertained. The damage to the wires on the bridge and the bad weather interfered with the transmission of the news, and it is unknown whether the girders were blown down before the train entered the bridge or were carried away with it, and it will probably never be ascertained, as there are no survivors. The bridge was only open for traffic in May, 1878. It was considered a triumph of engineering skill. It was about two miles long, and had eighty-five spans, the width of which was two hundred and forty feet. At the highest point it was one hundred and thirty feet above high water. . The train left Edinburgh at 4:15 in the afternoon. It consisted of four third-class cars, one first-class and one second-class and the brakesman's van. At the last station before entering the bridge tickets were taken, and the train was then crowded. Vast quantities of the wreck, such as doors and roofs of the carriages, pieces of the bridge and articles of wearing apparel, are coming ashore. The entire thirteen girders of the long central spans of the bridge are gone. The night was one of bright moonlight, but the wind was blowing a hurricane. 1 P. M. The jProvost of Dundee and the party of citizens who accompanied him in the steamer to the scene of the disaster, have returned, search waB made about the bridge in small boats, but no trace of any survivors could be found. 1 he gap in the bridge is about half a mile long, comprising eleven of the largest spans, each 245 feet in length and one span 145 feet in length. A dispatch lrom Dundee asserts thai the number of lives lost by the Tay bridge disaster does not exceed ninety. The bodies ot six victims nave beenrecovered.

Ouray has- never before failed in his loyalty to the whites, and has drawn an annual pension of a thousand dollars for many years for past services. General Sherman believes that the Commission has utterly failed, as he baa predicted it would all along, and says, in his blunt way, that "when the matter of settlement is turned over to the army, the Utes. as a Nation, will cease to exist." Unless there is an unconditional surrender of all of those engaged in the Meeker massacre, the tribe will be swept from the face of the earth.

Both Sides Holding Out and No Signs ol a Tumble. Chicago, Dec. 29. The Packing and Provision Company, which hitherto has been regarded friendly to the Union, this morning posted a notice that the firm intended henceforth to run its own business and employ whoever came, regardless of the Union. During the day some sixty ot their ueel slaughterers struck on account of this notice. The company en gaged one hundred non-union men in their place. The slaughtering at Armours, at the Anglo-American Company and at Fowler Bros, progressed well with exclusively non-unionists.

Augusta, Maine, Dec. 29. It is the general opinion that Governor Garcelon will not submit to the Supreme Court the question propounded by Governor Mor rill. The Republicans will be prepared for this and present the questions through a majority of the members of the last Senate, as it is thought such proceedings would conform to the law. The disposition is to exhaust every legal means before others are tried. Mayor JNasn, ot this city, will to-day address a letter to Governor Garcelon, urging him not to call out the militia on the assembling of the Legislature, as that would provoke the bringing of a force on the other side, He will state that the extra police force, provided by the city, is amply able to preserve the public peace. V. v. Baiter applied Hub alternoon at the Secretary of State's office for authority to examine the returns from Framing- ton. We was answered by Counselor l ogg in the negative, which waB accompanied by a profane epithet. Governor Garcelon went to Belfast today, to attend a meeting, called to sus tain the course of the Governor and tiou, after denouncing the action of the Republicans, concludes as follows: We pledge our earnest and active sup port to the constituted authorities to make treason harmless and punish traitors. We earnestly deBire peace, but we will bear arms, if necessary, and see that the Constitution and the laws of the State be observed, Banoor, Dec. 29. Adjutant General S. T. Leavitt arrived here, to-day, and this evening Joseph L. Smith, Fusion candidate for Governor, and other prominent Fusionists, have been at his hotel, it is supposed, in conference with the Adjutant General. It is reported the conference is in relation' to the arms at the State Arsenal, and that they will be re moved to Augusta to-morrow. WASHINGTON. i Tbe liitllnn Question Discussed. Washington, Dec. 29. Representative Belford, of Colorado, had an interesting interview with Secretary Schurz to-day on the Indian question, and especially with reference to the failure of the Utes to deliver up those engaged in the Meeker massacre, which failure has occasioned some uneasiness at the Interior Department.General Hatch had telegraphed that he would brine five chiefs from the Southern Agency to Indian Creek, and wanted to know whether he should bring them to Washington, This telegram led to the interview. Judge Belford was in favor of bringing them on in the hope that they might agree to tne removal ot the tribe to tbe Nintah Reservation, and the Secretary was oi me same opinion. The present relation of the Indians to the treaty was then discussed. It was conceded that the hostile Whit) River Utes had forfeited their treaty rights and were to be dealt with as thongh no treaty had ever been made with them. Judge Belford, however. took the more advanced position that the tribe should be treated as a unit He argued that they refused as a tribe to deliver up the Indians encased in the massacre, and that although all were not originally concerned in the war on Thorn- burgh and the massacre at the Agency they were accessories after the fact, and -civ ua cuiiiy oh we uugiuuiparticipants. The Secretary, in reply, said he would make a careful Btndy of the treaty; that lb who punnium ine uumy requireu me tribe to deliver up those making war, and unit a lauure 10 uo so abrogated tbe treaty. Both agreed that these Utes should be removed to the Uintah Reserva tion, across the border line of Colorado HUU I uvu, nwuio lug llllc UI VUlUmUU Council. A Bimilar meeting was held in Utah Territory, and that if they were this evening in Rockland. not removed the trouble would be likelv lhe Governor sent lor the Mayor this to occur in the spring.

I wo hundred extra police men have been already appointed, and this number would be increased if the exigencies of the case demanded it. lie said he was able to keep order, and beg- roer, cloudy andrainy, fondly Cearing Goveraor not to bring tVoops MSnSS General Grant. General Grant and wife made a social call this morning upon Mrs. Hayes and afterward spent an hour or two in visiting the departments. In the evening General and Mrs. Grant were entertained at dinner by Mr. and Mrs. Levi P. Morton, of New York, the other guests being Chief Justice Waite, Secretary Evarts, General and Mrs. Beale, ueneral uarheld, Admiral Ammen, Geu- weather. A report comes from Toledo that General Steedman has been won over to the Tilden crowd. This announce ment might seem to be something in the nature of a miracle were it not coupled with the statement that the General has been to New York and had an interview with the sage of Gramercy Park, which has a tendency to weaken any impressions that there might be of the marvelous in this little episode. Our dispatches from Maine morning indicate that the Democracy have the military of that State under marching orders, hut for what purpose is not so publicly proclaimed. Gov ernor Garcelon has also refused to sub- the Capital, or make preparations for arming them. He thought the citizens of AuguBta would bear Mm out in these assurances. The Governor talked quite freelv. and informed the Mayor that he had a great dif like of the idea of bringing troops here, and should not do it if peace could be maintained in any other way. It would be his duty to preserve order and prevent intorterence with merahera ot the Legislature. lhe Uovernor has decided not to submit to the Supreme Court the questiona pro pounded by Mr. Morrill. This is ob tained on good authority, though it will not be put into writing before to-morrow. nf Pnt,avlvnnia flatiaftni. AllioAn Unn Jay A. Hubbcll, Hon. George B.

The manager of the Forth British railway, telegraphing from Lenchars at four this morning, lays : "Several large girders, along with the lost train from Edinburgh, were precipitated into the river last night. There were nearly 300 passengers, beside the company servants, all of whom are believed to have perished." 'A dispatch from Edinburg, dated at four o'clock this morning, says: A portion of the bridge which fell consisted of Beveral large supercabent girders. At the navigable part of the river, which averages from forty to forty-five feet in depth, the train would fall about eighty-eight feet before reaching the water. Some time elapsed before the nature of the disaster was ascertained. The damage to the wires on the bridge and the bad weather interfered with the transmission of the news, and it is unknown whether the girders were blown down before the train entered the bridge or were carried away with it, and it will probably never be ascertained, as there are no survivors. The bridge was only open for traffic in May, 1878. It was considered a triumph of engineering skill. It was about two miles long, and had eighty-five spans, the width of which was two hundred and forty feet. At the highest point it was one hundred and thirty feet above high water. . The train left Edinburgh at 4:15 in the afternoon. It consisted of four third-class cars, one first-class and one second-class and the brakesman's van. At the last station before entering the bridge tickets were taken, and the train was then crowded. Vast quantities of the wreck, such as doors and roofs of the carriages, pieces of the bridge and articles of wearing apparel, are coming ashore. The entire thirteen girders of the long central spans of the bridge are gone. The night was one of bright moonlight, but the wind was blowing a hurricane. 1 P. M. The jProvost of Dundee and the party of citizens who accompanied him in the steamer to the scene of the disaster, have returned, search waB made about the bridge in small boats, but no trace of any survivors could be found. 1 he gap in the bridge is about half a mile long, comprising eleven of the largest spans, each 245 feet in length and one span 145 feet in length. A dispatch lrom Dundee asserts thai the number of lives lost by the Tay bridge disaster does not exceed ninety. The bodies ot six victims nave beenrecovered.
