to Balmoral . The Princess Louise and the Marquis of Lome left Balmoral on Wednesday for Inverary . The inquests on the victims of the collision on the Thames continue from clay to day . On Monday , evidences of identification having been , concluded , the first mate and the
seaman who was steering the unfortunate vessel were examined , while on Tuesday , other of the men engaged in the navigation of the vessel , were brought forward . On Wednesday , the principal witnesses were passengers who
were on board at the time of the collision , aud these , as well as those examined on Thursday , seem to agree that it was impossible for the Princess Alice to have avoided the collision . The fund at the Mansion House being raised on behalf of those left destitute by the accident , now exceeds £ 23 , 000 .
From an official statement made to the Lord Mayor it appears that 258 lives were lost by the explosion in the Abercarn pit . Of these 131 have left widows , and 863 children are rendered orphans by the calamity . The work of flooding the mine to extinguish the fire has been
completed , and steps have been taken to at once commence the pumping out , which it is anticipated will take at least a month . The inquest which has been opened has been adjourned for that time it being impossible to proceed
further until an inspection of the pit has taken place . A fund for the relief of the sufferers has been opened at the Mansion House , and up to the present time upwards of £ 8 , 000 has been received on account thereof .
The two Fenian prisoners , Condon and Melody , have been released , in accordance with the instructions of the pardon granted on their behalf . Hobart Pasha , who has been unexpectedly recalled to resume his duties as Inspector General of the Turkish Fleet , has left London for Constantinople for that purpose .
An obstinate resistance is still made to the Austrian
troops in some parts of Bosnia . Latest advices from Vienna , however , state that the operations of the force under Field Marshal Bienert , which begun with the passage of the Save have been proceeded with without opposition , and that the troops now occupy the line from Sakova and Gradacac towards the Bosna . The inhabitants
of the district of Bangaluka are being disarmed without much trouble , and it is expected that the insurgents will shortly surrender the stronghold of Bihach , near which place General Zach and Eeinlander ' s brigades are stationed . The Austrians are reported to have burnt Breka ,
on the Save , in consequence of the treason of the inhabitants , and now only require to subjugate Bielina Tuzla and Svornik to complete their occupation of Eastern Bosnia . A circular memorandum has been prepared by the Porte refuting the charge of delay on its part , in carrying
out the stipulations of the Berlin Treaty ; it will shortly be sent to the Powers . It is estimated that 50 , 000 Russian troops have now embarked from San Stefano , at which place the operation is still in progress . Moussa Pasha haa assumed command of Erzeroum , the evacuation by the
Russians having been completed . The Servians are actively engaged in military preparations , and , it is stated , daily expect a subsidy from Russia . In France , a grand military review , at which Marshal MacMahon and the Duke of Cambridge were present , has been held at Vincennes . The
troops on the ground numbered upwards of 50 , 000 men , and generall y exhibited improvement compared with that dis * played at any such gathering held in that country for some years past . The German Parliament has been engaged for two days on the Anti-Socialist Bill , which was ulti «
mately referred to a committee . From the United States it is reported that the new cases of yellow fever appear to be decreasing in some towns , bub that the epidemic still extensively prevails . Some cases have occurred at Jamaica , but it is hoped the measures taken to stop the progress of
the malady will be successful in staying its ravages . In view of its appearance at some of the ports of North America , the iiuglisli authorities have issued orders as to the measures to be adopted should it appear in any of our ports . From the Transvaal news of a disquieting nature
is received . The Zulu police have mutinied , and the Caff ' rcs are assuming the offensive . Fort Weber has been attacked , and Leydenburg surrounded . In consequeuce of the dissatisfaction caused by the policy of the Government , many volunteers refuse to serve longer , and are returniusr home .
