LATE CABLE NEWS.
(Per s.s. Rotorua at the Bluff.) London, July 5. The Bombay census has been published. It shows that the population of the city is 755,000. An outrage has occurred at the town of Callan, County Kilkenny. A process server was seized, and left hound and gagged, and his horse half killed. Serious riots have broken out among the wharf laborers at Montreal. They were suppressed by the police with considerable difficulty, and not until they had made use of their firearms to disperse the rioters. The construction of the Panama Canal has not been making much progress lately. An outbreak of fever and quarrels with the laborers have considerably impeded operations. Emigration from Europe to America is assuming larger proportions than ever. On Thursday no less than 2451 persons landed in New York.
