Two pressmen are being triad in a Berlin Court on a charge of libelling Count Eulenberg, Baron Marsehall von Bieberstein (Minister for Foreign Affairs) and Prince HohenJohe) (Chancellor of the Empire). The libel was contained in an article on the Czar's speech at his reoeption at Breslau, which alleged that Count Eulenberg, acting in the interest of England, had put forward a false version of the Czar's sentiments. The Newfoundland Government has taken over the control of the railways in the island. They have hitherto been in private hands. The Socialists in the Parisian Chamber of Deputies propose to reduce the Army and Navy Estimates by 22,000,000 francs, and are also opposed to th,e calling out of the reserves. New 3 from Zanzibar states that the Somalia have killed Signor Cecchi, the Italian Consul, and wounded the oaptains of two Italian warships aad six other officer*.
In an engagement between the Italians and fciomalis, in which the Italian Consul, Cecohi was killed, the former made a heroic defence, and lost fourteen of their men and the Somalia eighteen.
