' The'News Confirmed.
LON-non, Aug. 2.——Mr. Hugh Matheson' '
of Hugh Matheson & Co., and Jardi‘ne,
Matheson & 00., London and Shanghai,
from whom the Chinese transport Kow-
Shung,. sunk by a Japanese cruiser, was
chartered,» received a dispatch today fronr
Tient-sin, dated Aug. 1,. saying that 001-.
onel \‘on. Hannekin, .formerly .aid-‘de-
camp of Li .Hpng Chang, the viCeroy Of'
China, who was on board the transport
when she foundered, was saved. .
The dispatch adds that a court of in-
quiry has been opened at. Tientsin in or-
der that the real facts in connedtiOn with
the sinking of the KOW-Shung may be
known. ’ ' , '
The Japanese minister at 2 O’clock this
afternoon informed the Earl of Kimberly,
the secretary 'of state for foreign affairs,
that a state of war exists betWCen Japan
and China. .
The Chinese legation today received a
dispatch from Tientsin, dated 11 a. m.,'
Aug. 1, but no mention was'made in this
message of a second naval battle having
taken place between China and Japan,
and no mention was'made of a conflict
having taken place between their armies‘
on land. »
Did the Chen—Yuan Escape?
SHANGHAI, Aug. 2.—At 11 o’clock in
the morning of July 27, the day after the
attack on the Chinese transports which
reéulted in the sinking of the Kow-Shung,
the Japanese warships Takachiho and
Hiyei made an attack upon the Chinese
ironclad Chen-Yuan. '
After a long and desperate fight the
Japanese vessels were beaten off, the Hiyei
being disabled and rendered helpless.
The Chen-Yuen, though badly dam-
aged, succeeded in reaching port in safety
in company with two gunboats, which
also took part in the engagement, and im-
mediately went into drydock for repairs
after her two days’ fighting. ‘
Advices from Yashan state that the Chi-
nese are strongly intrenched there, and
that repeated attempts haVe been made by
the J apanesc troops to dislodge them. In
forces, after hard fought engagements,
were repulsed at all points with heavy
losses.
A portion of the Chinese soldiers on-
gaged in these battles were the best troops
of the northern army of Viceroy Li Hung
Chang. The Chinese losses were small.
. Advices from Korea say that "the J apa-
nese are preparing to withdraw part of
their troops frOm Seoul and .re-enforce
their army in front of Yashan, with a
view of renewing their attacks upon that
place.
Fears For l‘inssionaries' Safety. ‘
BALTIMORE, Aug. 2.——Bishop .Alpheus
W. Wilson of the Southern Methodist
church. who has traveled extensively in
China and Japan and spent many years in
close connection with the mission work
in those countries, says: .
"There is much reason to fear for the
safety Of the. missionaries, both men and
women, now stationed in China and
Kerea. While not directly concerned in
the dispute between China and Japan,
the missionaries will probably feel its ef-
fects because of the readiness of the na-
tives to visit the responsibility of trouble
on foreigners,.no matter how remote the
work of the missionaries may be from the
cause of the trouble. Korea is a remark-
ably cxciusive country and docs not eye
foreigners with favor even in the most
peaceable times. The Chinese are so deep-
ly pervaded with superstition that natural
antipathy to foreigners merges into fanat-
ical hatred and fear. '
“While this present danger to the mis—
sionaries is to be feared, it is likely that
the war in the long run will help the
cause of the missions by calling attention
-to_ them and to their objects and by stimu-
lating the government to greater conces-
sions in their behalf.”
'Ihe Russian Bear Growls.
S_T. PE’l‘ERSBUIiG, Aug. 2.—'The Russian
newspapers are unanimous in saying that,
whatever the result of the war between
China and Japan, Russia will not toler-
ate any diminishment’ of Korean territory
nor alienation of Korean independence.
Russia, it is added, will not permit any
interference upon the part of Great Brit-
ain or any other power if such interference
endangers Russian interests.
Finally the Russian newspapers urge
the government to adopt military and na-
val measures in the Pacific and upon the
Russo-Korean frontier calculated to up:
hold the interests of Russia should she be
called upon to defend them.
An Old story Retold.
YOKOHAMA, Aug. 2.—A dispatch dated
July 30 has been received here which is
finances-spate; ,teihefievfieuna but
. n
which may inter to the unen X'uen. It
says that a Chinese warship and a trans-
port having on board 1,500 troops have
been sunk by Japanese warships. and
that 'a Chinese gunboat has been captured
by the Japanese. ‘ "
The government Of Japan has been in-
formed that Chinese re—enforcements have
been sent to Korea, which fact Japan con-
siders as a menace.
Messages between Japanese officials
have been stopped by China.
Spain Is Getting Ready Too.
LONDON, Aug. 2.——The Spanish govern-
ment. as a result of its misgivings, offi-
cally expressed, regarding the possible re-
sults to the Philippine islands in the
event of Japan becoming the dominant
power in the east, purchased three cruis-
ers from English firms today.
As already announced, the Spanish gov-
ernment is apprehensive that Japan may
utilize the troubles at the island of Min-
danao as a pretext to execute her alleged
ambitious designs regarding the Philip-
pine islands. '
Cable Company’s Notices.
NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—The Commercial
Cable company issued the following no-
tice today; , .
“Telegraphic communication between
Shanghai and Chefu, Tientsin and the
north is restored. .
“Messages for Japan via the northern
route are still accepted only at senders’

ernment at Montreal, to go via Vancouver

OUR GOVERNMENT 'IN THE DARK.
“.15 Almost Certain That Official Dis-
patches Havo Been Obstructed.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.—A brief cable-
J gram announcing the arrival of the United
States steamer Monocacy at Nagasaki,
Japan, received by Secretary Herbert to-
day,~ls the only official news from the seat
of war that has come to the government
here from its representatives in China and
Japan, and the surmise that official dis-
patches are being obstructed purposely
now amounts to conviction.
The Monocacy was at Chemulpo, Korea,
with the Baltimore, and it is supposed
that she ran over to fiagasakl for coal and
supplies. It is tho ht here that the ac-
tion of Japan in o cially notifying the
British government of the existence of a
state of war between Ja an and China
was precipitated by the ow-Shung inci-
dent. Had such a notice preceded the sink-
ing of the ship, Japan would not have in
curred liability to Great Britain and been
obliged to apologize. In effect that notice
is equivalent to a declaration of war, or
at least it imposes the same Obli ation
upon neutral nations. The United totes,
for instance, can sell to either China or
Japan arms and munitions of war and
supplies, but they must be delivered atthe
risk of the purchaser, and any vessel car-
rying them is liable to seizure. So by this
stroke Japan doubtless has seriously em-
barrassed China in her efforts to supply
herself with warlike equipments in other
countries.
The conditions are very similar to the
Tonquin campaign in 1884-5 when under
the name of “reprisals” actual war was
waged on China by France. Although
there was no formal declaration of war
when the French decreed, rice to be con-
traband, the United States and all other
nations acquiesced, and the only protest
came from the British minister to China,
who was reprimanded for it by his own
- government. Just what the efiect will be
every instance, however, the attacking ,
on the Chinese treaty ports cannot 9be
foretold now. Japan has taken the ground
that they are practically foreign settle-
ments, and therefore has disclaimod any
intention» to interfere with them, regard-
ing them as outside of the zone of hostile
operations. China, however, has persist-
entl-y claimed the right, under the treaties
opening the ports, to close them in time
of war. The treaties themselves present
points of variance, and the whole matter,
although very important to commercial
interests, is shrouded in doubt. There are
no precedents quite fitting the present
case, and it will probably call for the mak-
ing of some international law on the sub-
ject unless the war ends speedily. It is
believed here that China now will proceed
immediately to close the more important
treaty ports; beginning with Shanghai
perhaps, by obstructing the entrances.
THINKS CHINA VVILL \VIN.
She Can Pour Troops Into Korea Like Sand
Into a Rathole.
KANSAs CITY, Aug. 2.—Dr. L. W.
Luscher of this city has an intimate
knowledge of the war and navy depart-
ments of China and Japan and a personal
acquaintance with the country for which
they are contending. During the Franco-
Chinese war Dr. Luscher was in the serv-
ice of Li Hung Chang as a surgeon in the
Chinese navy, and he has traveled much
in both China and Japan. For about two
years he was in the Chinese navy and was
thereby accorded exceptional opportunities
of studying the fighting qualities of the
Chinese. In his opinion China must win
in the end. It can afford to Wage war for
* years. and from the millions of its people
can pour troops into Korea as a. child
would pour sand in a rathole—for amuse-
ment and as a pastime—without missing
them from. the densely populated districts.
“The fighting qualities of the Chinese
must not be underestimated,” said Dr.
Luscher. “I witnessed instances of both
courage and daring, and it is my opinion
that they are incapable of physical fear.
In late years China. has made considerable
'progress in war methods. At Fuchau
there is a splendidly equipped navy yard.
The Chinese make the stationary engines
for all their naval vessels. Of course the
supervision is under foreigners, but the
work is the Work of Chinese artisans.
China has an immense advantage over
Japan in the Korean difficulty, because it
can pour its innumerable thousands into
Korea without trouble,whercas Mutsuhito
must transport all his troops.”

The Routine Proceedings of
the Senate and House.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.—Active negotia-
tions are proceeding both inside the tarifi
conference and in influential quarters
outside the conference to bring about a
complete andspeed-y agreement on the
tarifl bill. These negotiations are saidtc
be proceeding so satisfactorily that con-.
greesional leaders assert that the end is
very near at hand. These familiar with
the details of the negotiations say that
they include fair concessions from both
senate and house. On the three great
items of sugar iron and coal, it is denied
with much emphasis on the house side
that the senate sugar schedule and the
senate rate on iron would prevail, and
that the house would be compensated by
a reciprocity clause on coal. The house
leaders resent this report, saying that it
would be equivalent to a complete surren-
der to the senate. It is stated by those
leaders informed of the facts that the
sugar schedule will not be that fixed 65,7
the senate, nor the free sugar of the house
bill, but a middle ground.
Friends of the administration say there
is a geod prospect that the president’s in-
sistence on free raw materials—free iron
ore and free coal—will recech substantial
recognition and deny as impossible all re-
ports that any agreement would be on the
basisof accepting the senate rate on coal
and iron. There is good reason to believe
that Chairman Wilson and the friends of
the administration will not yieldto such
a proposition. The Democratic conferees
wore together again for two hours today,
and at the close of the meeting the house
members expressed the same confidence
of a speedy settlement that they'had after
the meeting yesterday. Chairman Wil-
son and Mr. Montgomery went at once to
Speaker Crisp's private office and conferred
with'him for half an hour.
Chairman Holman of the Democratic
caucus committee also conferred with the
speaker. Mr. Holman said afterward that
the tariff situation had changed so mate-
rially for the better that the house caucus
wouldnot be held for the present. The
oonferees would be given every opportu-
nity to get together, he added.
The nenate's “’ork.
The senate wore a somewhat deserted
appearance when the vice president called
it to order today.
A number of bills were passed, among
them being a house bill extending the
time for payment of purchases of land of
the Omaha tribe of Indians in Nebraska.
Among the petitions was one from Mor-
riscn I. Swift of Boston, who recently
made himself notorious by his anarchistic
action and words on the steps of the Bos-
ton courthouse, calling on congress to re-
sign, presented by Mr. Lodge. In this
connection Mr. Hoar (Rep, Mass.) took
occasion to state that he had received a
similar petition, but in view of the fact
that his colleagues had presented one he
should withhold his.
This gentleman, he added, and the per-
sons who joined with him in his petition
seemed to be absolutely unconscious of the
existence of a body of men called the
American people:
“They send in their petitions,” he con—
tinued, “and‘make their demands on us
as if a dozen, a hundred or a thousand
men had only to get together on the com-
mon somewhere and after 10 minutes’ tur-
bulent discussion propose something which
is to take the place of the constitution [at
once.” The petition called for the im-
mediate resignation of senators and repro—
sentatives, and the signers not only de-
manded it, but they had even fixed the
time for it. -
\Vhen Stevenson lilust Retire.
“You, ” he said, addressing the vice
president, “are going to resign the honor-
able ofiice you hold on the 4th of March,
1897, and you will do it without any fur-
ther demand being made. You may be
promoted to one more honorable, or you
may be continued for another term in this
one, or you may be retired to private life. ”
_ In the House.
Some routine business was transacted
at the opening of the session of the house
today. The senate bill directing the score-
tary of war to examine the claim of the
American Transportation company for
dredging Fairport harbor, Ohio, was pass-
ed on motion of Mr. Grosvenor (Rep, 0.).
Mr. Hatch (Dem., Mo.) presented the
conference report on the agricultural ap-
propriation bill, "in which the senate re-
ceded from the $1,000,000 appropriation
for the destruction of the Russian thistle,
and it-was agreed to.
The conference report on the bill for the
resurvey of Grant and Hooker counties,
Nob, was agreed to.
Mr. ‘Jones (Dem., Va.) then called up
the report of the committee on elections
in tho MooreFunston contested election
case from the Second Kansas district, in
which the majority reported against the
sitting member (Mr. Funston, Rep. ).
By arrangement it was agreed that two
hours should be allowed on each side.

today sent to the senate the following
nominations of postmastcrs: Jerome W.

._...l_.-__
NEW YORK, Aug. film-James J. Corbett,
the champion pugilist, arrived in this city
today from Europe and was accompanied
by his wife and Bob Ceylon. He is look-
ing in the best of health and declares that
he is eager for a fight with Peter Jackson.
Corbett’s trip from the highlands to
this city was a continual ovation. In the
lower bay the Majestic was met by the
tug Charles E. Evarts.
She had gone down with a large party
of sporting men. When the Majestic ap-
peared, the band struck up “Hail, the
Conquering Hero Comes, ” and there was
a waving of hats and eXOhange of greet--
lugs which aroused all the passengers on
board the Majestic. At quarantine an
attempt was made to take Corbett off.
This, however, could not be done. The
tug, therefore,‘made for the city, and when
the steamship reached her pier it was
there to greet the champion with national
airs and a general demonstration.
A Tremendous Ovation.
Corbett was among the first to go down
the gangplank. He had hardly reached
its foot when he was seized by hundreds
of sportingmen, who had gathered early
in the day'at the dock, and after a maul-
ing, which he appeared to thoroughly en-
joy, was borne on the crowd’s shoulders to
his carriage.
Accompanied by his wife and Brady, he
was driven at once to his new home at 146
West Eighty~eighth street, where he wiil
remain for two weeks or more.
In speaking of his three months’ visit
to Europe, Corbett, on the way up from
quarantine, said: .
“Yes, it is true that I have had a most
enjoyable three months abroad.
“I was well received wherever I went
and made many friends among our Eng-
lish cousins.
“But that is now a matter of history.
What I am interested now in is the fu-
ture. I came back to this country for the
express purpose of meeting Peter Jackson.
I will remain in this, city until Aug. 14,
and if Jackson wants to fight he has only
to appear here. " '
“I will see him whenever he comes, and
' within five minutes the whole thing can
be settled. ”
Will Fight Anywhere.
“It has been said that I was wi‘llin to
meet Jackson only'in Jacksonville. fiat
statement is of course ridiculous. I'am
willing to meet Jackson anywhere in this
country, or in any other, for that matter.
Obviously the fight cannot come off at
once. .Whilc I think that I look pretty
wall, I am by no means in good form.
London dinners have been too much for
me. Yesterday I tried to do some rope
skipping on the deck and found that I
could not last at all. It will take just
about six months for me to get in prime
form, but'thcn I shall be ready for J ack-
son.”
“You see, ” interrupted Brady, “Cor-
bett’s idea is to have a time named and
then to wait for a certain’length of time
for offers; then Jackson and. he can fight
before' the club which makes the best
ofl‘er."’
Corbett appeared to be in fine cOndition.
His complexion is clear, his movements
are agile, and his eyes shine 'with remark-
able brightness.
Batlxers Drowned at Chicago.
CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-——Two fatalities oc-
curred among the bathers at Manhattan
Beach. Those drowned are Julius Green-
burg and Minnie McCann of Aurora, Ills.
The proprietors have provided a raft near
the shore. About a dozen persons wore
on the raft, which was pitching heavily,
and Miss McCann and Greenburg fell off,
their absence not being noticed until too
late to save them.
