LONDON
March 6. In the House of Commons last night, a series of resolutions in favor of optional local Government throughout Great Britain was introduced by a member of the Opposition. A lengthy debate ensued, and on a division being called, the resolutions were negatived by the House by a large majority. At the wool auctions, over 150,000 bales have been catalogued since the opening up to yesterday. The market has a firmer tone. A Russian named Harhnajrn, charged with complicity in the late destruction by fire of the Academy of Forest Culture, Moscow, having escaped to France, the Russian Government recently demanded the extradition of the fugitive. The French Government, however, refused to deliver him to the Russian authorities, and he has since been deported to England.
