THE riVRRENDER OF METZ PROCLAMATION OF KINO WILLIAM "PROVIDENCE BE THANKED" DIFFERENT THEORIES OF THE CAPITULA TION BAZAINE REPORTED TO BE A BONA PARTIST AND A TRAITOR, Tours, Oct. 27. The Prince and Princess of Wales are visiting Eugenie at Chlsselhurst. An officer, one of a party of five who escaped from Metz, has arrived here, and makes the following statement: He and four others left the fortress in disguise, and he alone succeeded In reaching Tours. Bazalne was well, and his troops were in good con dition. Provisions were ample, and could be made to last many weeks. Bazalne has 89,000 troops, rank and file. His sorties were much more successful than the Prussian or English reports acknowledge. The captures and losses of the French are vastly misstated by the published accounts. There had been no disorders in the city. No news has been received from Paris to-day. It is rumored thst fighting Is going on to-day near Orleans. The Monitettr to-day announces that persons who are desirous to send letters to Paris, may send them to the Prefecture at Tours, and the administration will forward them, as it Is determined to break the blockade which the enemy is endeavoring to esta blish. Information from Orleans Is to the effect that al the shops and stores are closed, and the streets de serted by the people. The women almost invaria bly appear in mourning. The Prussian o'Uoers en deavor to dispel the gloom Ineffectually. At Mar seilles affairs are more orderly. The journals that were suppressed in that city have been allowed to reappear by order of Uambetta. The civic guard Is less unruly, and the authorities apparently pay little attention to it. The journals here announce that a long Interview occurred yesterday between Lord Lyons and Thiers. It Is reported that Ma zlnl, the noted Italian republican leader, has left Italy and is now on his way to Tours. The English at Paris are under the protection of Washburne, as the British charge d'aflalre, has not recognized the republican government, and has no authority to Tboyks, Oct. 26 Nogent was evacuated by the Prussians last night. Before leaving they tired the town in several places. Garibaldi is still at Dole, .where, notwithstanding his indisposition, he per sonally superintended the organization of the free forces. He has collected a strong force, and which Is subjected to the most stringent discipline. Seve ral sharp engagements have occurred, with con siderable losses on both sides. Lille, Oct. 24, via Tours, Oct. 27 St. Quentln baa been evacuated by the Prussians. Amiens has not yet been attacked. The Prussians retreated suddenly, and are concentrating near Laon. The siege of Laferte has also been abandoned. A large portion of the army of the Duke of Mecklen-burg-Schwerln is moving hastily toward Paris. Blois, Oct. 26. A strong column of the enemy, cavalry and infantry, attacked a French reconuol terlng party on the left bank of the Loire yester day, but were handsomely repulsed after a short engagement. RouBN.Oct. 26, evening The enemy, on leav ing Glzors, attacked Longchamps with nine hun dred men and four mortars. They were beaten off by the Francs-tlreurs and other troops. Vkndomic, Oct. 26 It is said there are still 2000 Prussians at Chat teaudun, 800 ot which are cavalry, and they also have two cannon. St. Petkrsbubg, Oct. 27. The following sum mary of negotiations on the part of the neutral Powers of Europe, for an armistice, Is published here to-day, from an authentlo source. After re citing the determination of the neutrals to seize the first opportunity for mediation that presented itself, the document proceeds: "Russia, on M. Favre's visit to the Prussian headquarters, believed that the long looked for opportunity had arrived. At this moment the reception of the Prussian note on the subject of the probable early starvation of Paris, caused a change in the idea of neutrals. When, however, they pressed the subject of media tion Again, Russia held back, on the ground that mediation unsolicited would be worthless. The conditions of peace must be left exclusively to the belligerents. The course was still possible to con voke a national assembly which alone was compe tent to decide the question of peace or war. In view of these considerations It was England that proposed the armistice, and In this she was sup ported by all the neutral Powers." Loudon, Oct. in Special to the New Tork World. A correspondent at Ostend telegraphs follows: A statement has been received from Mars-la-Haut to the ettect, that upon receiving a formal declaration, signed bv Eof-enie, thnt she was un willing to sign a treat v for anv cession of French territory, or to be a party to an? scheme involving a probable outbreak or civil war In France. Bazaine exclaimed that lis would take all neces sary responsibility htmelf. This wason Wednesday Tignt, and he immediately sent a parlmnontaire through his lines to Prlwce Frederick Charles, at Pont-a-Mouseon. The Prince came up during the night to the Chateau do Frnscote, where this morning early the stipulations were signed for the urrender of the army of Bazaine and the fortress cfMitz. The report adds that General de Cofflnleres, com mandant of the garrison of Metz, entered a written protest against the surrender, declaring that he was abundantly able to protract the defence into the winter; that the recent defeats of the Germans had made It practically lmfiosslble for them to Im peril the possession of the place, and that provi sions were In abundance hot for the army and the population. Since October 15 the people had re ceived daily rations of 400 grammes of broal for adults, 2'K) grammes for children, and 100 for in fants. The Ostend correspondent says that the total loss of tbe army of Prince Frederick Oharles from the bf ginning of the siege Is estimated at 43,000 men by battle and disease. The armv of Prince Frederick Charles consisted oh October 20 of the 1st, 2d, i, 7th, 8th, !tth and Kith Army corps, with two divisions of landwehr attached' to the 9th army corps, making a total of lliu.OOO men, artillery and cavalry included. LownoH, Oct. 27. Specinl to the New York Worldl. The surrender of Bazaine, it is stated, has been made upon a full understanding with the Prussian government that the occupation of Metz and Strasburg shall be accepted as an adequate basis tor withdrawing the German armies from France and concluding a peace. The Republicans here loudly declare Bazalne a traitor, and that he concerted bis action with Prince Napoleon, Eugenie and King William, and that the government at Paris will repudiate any peace prepared or signed by him. In spite of the rumors about the surrender ot Metz, tbe French loan has advanced in price all day. LAurter is arranging for the expenditure of a large amount of the loan in tbe purchase of arms at Birmingham. Lohdoh, Oct. 27 fSpecial to New York Tri bune A correspondent before Metz telegraphs on October 26: Five days ago General Cotllnieres, com mandant of tbe city and fortress of Metz, Informed Bazaine, commanding tbe army outside, that he could supply no more provisions, and that they must shitt for themselves. Thereupon Bazaine or dered tbe outposts to cease firing on the Prussian pickets, and tacitly allowed his man to desert In groups of a dozen or two, who were accepted by tbe Prussian outposts. Larger bodies were refused. On the afternoon of October 24, trustworthy In formation came from Metz, by a civilian spy, that an outbreak en masse would be made during the night, toward Gravelotte, as Bazaine's offer to ca pitulate with his army alone had been repeatedly and peremptorily refused. The outbreak was to be. made without hope of saving any, portion of the organized troops, but simply to enable these superfluous mouths to get behind tbe German lines and force the er mans to take them prisoners, whereby the fortress might hold out a little longer, with a smaller garri son, but at 7 P.M Bazaine had succeded In con vincing General Cottinieres that the inevitable bloodshed consequent upon such an attempt would be too dear a price to be paid for a few days' pro longation of resistance, and a messenger was sent to Prince Frederick Charles, Intimating the inten tion in the fortress to capitulate. This was the first proposition ever made Including the fortress and outside army. Accordingly at midnight the Prussians, who had been massed silently toward Gravelotte, received orders to retire to their -camps. At 1 P. M. yester day General Changarnier arrived, spent an hour with the Prince, and departed, much disturbed, excusing some absent-mindedness of his own, say ing, "no wonder the Prince was so severe." By tbe arrangement of this meeting. General Stceble, Colonel Von Uerzang, chief of staff and quartermaster general of the Prince's army, rode to Fescay, a chateau three miles south of Metz, Just within the Prussian lines, whither two French commanders, with Humbert, second in command in the fortress, had been brought by a Prussian field post chaite. The meeting lasted from 6 to 9 P. M., and resulted only at parting in An agreement that the disputed points should be discussed again at noon to-day. Matters, however, were so far advanced, that the second corps received orders to march for Paris yes terday at noon, and started early in the evening. Other troops concentrated at the nearest attainable points to Metz last night to prevent desertions en ronsse, Bazaine's last means of prolonging negotia tions. All the way from Mars la Tour to Courcelles, and from Joncy to Mezieres, all the village quar ters were lit up and all the bivouac tires were burning. At two A. M. to-day the moving masses covered the roads and fields. No disturbance oc curred, and none of the troops suspected the truth Bkklih, Oct. 27. The King telegraphs to the Queen to-day as follows: "This morning Bazalne and Metz capitulated, 150,000 prisoners, Including 20,000 sick and wounded. Tbe army and garrison laid down their arms this afternoon. One of the roost Important events of the war. Providence be thanked." MARINE TELEGRAPH. For additional Marin ti'eui am Firat Fag.
