New York Times.
Gen. Stone sat last night In his tuxur
Ions drawing nom nt Flushing , Lou ;
Island , aatrjundod by all the comforts
that rjiulor cold weather a pleasure , On
the innntolpicco was a hundsomu bronza
bust of the unfortunalo Khcdire , Is
mail ; on the wall hung an oil pilnth ol
the same li1 fated parton , painted by n
young Egyptian whom Ismail had sent to
Italy to study the art.
"What do you think will bo the cll'tct
of Gon. Gordon's death ? "
"Well , " said Gen. Stone , "It is 1m-
> 3slble tj tell wbnt tlio effect will ba.
The primary object of tlio campaign is
lost. lie nui that clijoct. Withoutknow-
iaij 'ho plans of the Britlch ministry it ia
impossible to conjectuto what may occur.
Aa far as the indications RO , from the
line of llio English papers , it wonldeojm
that they Intend to make a now campion
and puutali the malidi. Thnt would re
quire very hc vy reinforcpincnts , nnd
would hardly bo snfo without moro than
.hoy seem to hid cite as InUuidlng to
send.
"And a campaign nt the npproachicg
Beaten of the year irould be very dillisult.
The Nile will fall steadily from this time
until May. The river will glvo but little
ch&nca of tranhpcr nUou , aud ravigatlon
will bo moro d llicult dy by day. And
: hey have uot j-i-ovlded what tboy shoulil
mvo done in my opinion a very grjivt
number of utmols to effort ilut trans'
portal on. Then the boat ia ahoincto\ ? .
at this time of the year. The Euro-
ion troops even at the best s-nsons trill
iull'er greatly from debility and from the
'ovois of t'ao country. It they take tha
suakiui ronto to Berber to reinforce Gon.
liord Wolaelty they must either move in
very tmall bodies , and therofoto subject
hemaelvca to constant attacks , or they
must have at loaat three camels to every
inn to cany uot only the nun , but the
irovieiouEf , the ammunition , and nearly
ill the water to bo used.
" 1 regard it as utterly impracticable , ' '
said Gen. St no ( lowly , "to march
European troops on foot over that route
n the Boaern which is now coming.
From the observation of my owu oflkers ,
very car , folly made , the heat will be at
an average ot 100 lo 105 degrees in the
shade overafrornoon. . If they lalco thn
tfilo route to reinforce Lord "Wolseley , "
laid Gon. Stone , spreading out a map of
ho country on his knees , "tho march
would bo immensely lunger and much
slowjr , unices they ns d vast numbers of
camels. There Is therefore littla hope
of Lord Wolssloy receiving any largo
enforcements before the mlddlo of April.
von that wonld require such activity ,
energy , and good adinlnistia'icii .13 has
> eon rare'y aeon in any army. "
"Dp you consider Lord Wolsoloy'a
ituation critical. "
"He is in a country where it is ex
ceedingly diilicnlt to obtain supplies , "
said the geneial. "Ho is between the
dcaoita , having only a narrow strip of
cultivated land along the Nile. The
rich countiy near Berbsr is in the hands
of the enemy and has boon already
icavlly foraged by the largo forces of the
Vlahdi , The rich country to the oonth-
cast Is in the hands of the Alahdi also.
7rom them ho can draw no supplies. Ho
must get them either by the Nile or they
must be brought to him by a strong foioj
Tcm Sankin af tor ho shall have occupied
Berber. "
Gen. Stone drew a sketch of the posi
; ions of tlio varions towns playing roles
n the campaign. "If Lord Wolseley had
intelligent men fir enemies , " ho said ,
"lie would be badly oil' . If the Mahdi
wore to send a force to Djbbi , through
which all Lord Wolaeley's supplies muat
of necessity be sent , the game wonld bo
up. Ha would aimply go in for a dce-
porato fight. The only things ho c.nld
all back upon would bo his camels. He
w6nld have ta oat them. "
"Do you think thoru was any partlcu-
ir error in this campaign ? "
"J. dislike very much to ctiticfss , " said
3sn. Stono. "I tell you 1 think tbat un
der all the circumstancea Lord Wolsoloy
chose the best route tj accomplish the
declared pcrpcsea of the government
5ut he c'.ioao the wr 115 mcaaa of trans-
) rtat'oa. Ho held to his i Jen of small
> oit8 , whe ra I tlilnk ho should have de-
icndod almost entirely upon camels.
Hud ho assembled at Wady Half ay 30,000
or moro ouneln 1 think his concentration
n the Upper Nile would have been much
nero rapid. 1 think ho could have con
centrated in lcs than half the time.
That wai a great fault. "
"What do you think of a second cjm-
pa'gn/ / "
"fha qiiEstion is , ' ' said Gon. Stone ,
can ho inuke a soccn.il campaign and be
succeeaful. Of course it can be made.
[ s there ) any o flic 3 of coi responding Inter
est now to the cue which actuated this
campaign ? That ia fer Tirltleh ttitcsiifn
to decide. Do jou know that I always
Eiippcscd that Gon. Gordon would hold
out to the very last with a few men , and
if ho found at last that that things wore
at their worst blow himself and his men
up rather than surrender. That was aV
ways my idea. 1 never thought Gen.
Gordon would to rakon alive. " And
Gen. Stone s'ghed rs In glauced at the
portrait barging on the wall ,
Col. 0 0. Long , win wits Can. Gnr-
ilon's chief of ttaff from 1874 to 1877 ,
while the latter commanded tha Egypt.an .
forces at Khartoum , said last night that
lie ivgu'dod the news of Gen , Gcrdon'a
death as lacking confirmation , and that if
the London pnpjis had not accepted It as
true , ho rhould bj inclined to disbelieve
It altogether , Ho could on'y ' believe it
on the Mippoaitlou that Gon. Gordon htd
lost his luad , and from his intimate ac
quaint nice with him ho did not think that
prjbablo. "Gen. G rdon , " continued
Col. Long , "being an able soldier , and
thoroughly acquainted with tha people
with whcm ho had to deal , would natur
ally bo on hs ! guard ajalnattraacheiy and
prepared to circumvent It. With
four stenmerj at his command ,
which he had after Binding the others
down the river to meet Gon. Stewart , it
waa easy enough for htm to ojcapo from
Khartoum. The White Nile opposite
Khartoum h a bold , rapid river , from a
mile aad a quarter to a mile and a half
wide , but juet below the junction of it
with the Blue Kilo the river becsmoj ox-
oeedinglv narrow , and its banks are lofty
sind fail's , from which the enemy
could command its passage. This fact
would account for Gordon's not
attempting to ctcape north aud moat the
advancing Britlah fu-c.-a. On the other
hind theio would bo nothing to pravent
his escape south by ascending the White
Nile in his steemars.
"By the way , this may bo the mcnnin _
of a statement 1 have read In one of the
papois that Col. Wllaon reported hiving
icca on hla npprcah to Khait mm three

thence , with the aisistanca of K 113 Mteai ,

strapped miiuri at a small iliauv Old
Bill Jones htan'c nn anoroy in the whole
torrltiry , and if ho had ho would naver
reat until he or the enemy had quilt id
f-c world or the territory. Ono afcor
another five other Bill Joncica put in an
appoatauce. For a long tanoovory
thing went well. They wore all fine fel
IJWD , ovldoatly , and no great trcublo w a
experienced by them or anybody else In
prejemng tlu-'r ' identity. But ono day
jnit weak llio sheriff and four men i-imo
in on horaiback with a wartant for the
arrest of Bill Jones. The Bill Jones
wanted had murdered a family
of emigrant ! over In Paradise
cnnyou , and the court had aont fir
him. As old Bill Jones wai the Bill
Jinea , sj far aa Americans Falls nnd its
POL pie n oat , no was at once fo.n'oa out
ns tins man , and the iliorlira ollicura
minded him up in g'od atylo. Old Bill
protested hia iimncmeo and would Invo
offered rctiilanco if ho hid soon my tn-
cjuragcinent in majirity of them had a
amplciou that t'loold ' man vu ; caught at
last , and conaciiuancaa of tils fAct bioko
his heart. Ho went off with h'scaptora ,
proteoling hi ] Inuocenco and ewoirttig he
would get ovun with somebody on bin re
turn ,
The civalcado hai not much rmro than
vanished over the mountainn when an
other shoclil'spaaaocinia in from tha lu-jt
also in ijucat of Bill Jonc ? . The first
ono that came to hand was the Bill Jones
who tends bar nt the Star saloon , nnd ho
was accordingly thkeu in charge. Ho
protested hip innocent , likctho old man ,
but the poonls wore pretty evenly divided
on the question : f his guilt. Old Bill had
boon taken east , and this ono W&B carried
off to the \vo.it. The next afternoon ,
while most oj the sattlcra were discussing
the ftto ; of Uo two nun , a intlla of hoof a
was heard and a party of hraotnon daihed
madly through the tswn , itjpping at ono
fo the saloons long enough , to got a drink.
The crowd rushed over to see what the
trouble was and found that the men had
Bill Jones , a murderer , iu charge , and
wore going to lynch him up iu the t mber.
Justice of the Peace Fallen hero spoke up
aud said there had boon two Bill Joneaoa
taken out of the camp in the proceeding
forty-eight hours and it might bo that
nomolionriblo mistake was being made.
All ho wanted was to have the right man
caught , aud ho would pnll as hard on the
rope ai anybody ; but until that point was
eoitloi ho thought there should be no
fuelling. Otheri made bold to cxpreso
the name opinion , and the lynchers , after
conferring with ono another , agreed , aa
whifky was good , to wait hero a few days
with their pr'siuor and investigate.
Last Monday old Bill rode i i with a
brand-now ritla , two revolvers and a
bowle knife and dared the whole tawn t )
jump on him. Ho wan the maddcnt man
33on in Idabo since big Ed Larrabco ran
off with Tom Belden'n bride , at Tom's
honsowararing , when Tom trh'ppjd ' all
the guests and shot two of their horses.
Nobody waited to fight old Bill and the
biwn kept in tiia houses while Bill gal
loped up and down the tlroot , yelling
and n\v < arifig. Altar a whih ho began
to shoot in tno windows , and tbon the
justice was sent ont an a peace clltji-
ing. Old Bill came very nrar r ding -
ing him down , but at last ho sobered oil
litle : , and listened to what Fallen bed
to siy. The justice explainoi mattjra th
bast way ho could , and told how Bill , the
bartender , had baen carried ell'aud Bill ,
Ilia cowboy , wai hold a captlvo up at the
other end cf the town by a party of lynch-
ira. Tiis mollified the old man to some
extent , and , after a momoir.'s .rellection ,
he declared that if the boy * would help
blm rescue tlio Cnwboy Bill and then
round up nil the Bill Jpnesaa in the vi
cinity ho would Cud no'more fault.
All decided 11 d'j as f'ld ' Bill desired.
After a little preparation a party of de
termined men undo a raid on the lynch
ere , capturei Cowboy Bill and drove th&
lynchors ont of to ? n. Then old Bil.
commanded that a'l the other Jonoaes bi
brought bftforo him. This took eomo
little time , but the next day tlio five oth-
ur Jonoans were in conference with old
Bill at the Ophir saloin , whin the sheriff
who had arrested old B 11 came In with a
stranger , who laid hii iiaino wai Bill
Jones. No ono had ever sioa him in
these rarls befor' , and ho was the off nJ-
ur whom nil the oflisoro aud lynchera liad
been after for a week prcviun , it was
all that the old man could do to keep the
othf r Joneses from laying violent hands
on hfm. When ho and his keopora had
p.wod on old Bill ma'io [ a speech some
thing like this :
"I'hero's too imny Bill Joneses in thin
camp for camforv , and romothing'a pot to
