Faction Opposed to Harrity Offered 3 Set of Resolutions—President Cleveland's Stand on Money Question II Warmly Commended. HARRISBURG, April 18,—The state Dem- ocratic committee met here today to select a chairman. ' There were only six absen- ‘tees out of 89 committeemen in anticipa- tion of a fight between rival factions of ~ the party. After the calling of the roll Chairman Stranahan announced that the election of a chairman was in order. John ‘ W. German of Nanticoke named Robert E. Wright of Allentown. No other nominations b e i n g m a d e , Wright was cho- sen by acclama- tion. ' James A. M c C ar t h y o f N orthumberland , W. K. Myers of Dauphin aid R. W. Linton of Som- erset were ap- R. E. WRIGHT. pointed a committee to wait on the chair- man and present him before the commit- tee. After a short wait the committee ap- peared with Mr. Wright, who was received with enthusiastic applause. He was then introduced 'to the assemblage by Mr. Stranahan. he would try to be the leader of the whole party and not the representative of any faction. He pledged himself to work faith- fully and earnestly for the success and unity of the Democratic party. A vote of thanks was tendered to James A. Strana- ban, the retiring chairman. The time and place of holding the next state convention were left to the executive committee. A resolution was adopted in- dorsing the financial policy of President Cleveland and approving his efforts .to maintain a safe, sound and stable curren- cy.- The election of division chairmen was ratified by the committee. Anti-Harrity Resolutions. The faction of the state Democracy op- posed to the leadership of William F. Har- rity gave expression to their sentiments in the following resolutions. which were prepared by the committee appointed for that purpose and adopted at a meeting held this morning: Whereas, The organization of the Democratic party in the state of Pennsylvania has reached a state of demoralization that fails to com- mand the popular support and confidence of those who believe in the principles of the Dem- ocratic party, causes for which are obviously due to machine dictation, to the ostracism of all Democrats refusing submission to arbitrary rule and to the unjustifiable use of federal pat ronage. ~ Resolved, That no hopeful contest can be made by the Democracy in Pennsylvania so long as the organization is maintained in its present condition. The mass of the Democracy in overwhelming numbers have repeatedly in- dicated their refusal to follow such leadership and especially repudiated it at the polls. Young men are being driven into the ranks of the op- position, and a longer continuance of the pres- ent organization will result in the utter anni- hilation of the party as a political factor in our commonwealth. Resolved, That a complete organization em- bracing all believers in Democratic principles without regard to factional interests is the su- preme and indispensable requirement for the future welfare of the party, and to achieve this end we pledge our earnest and continued en- deavor and call upon all Democrats who place the welfare of their party in the state and na- tion above mere selfish and personal success to unite with us in a persistent contest until this end be accomplished. Resolved, That to subserve the best interests of the Democracy and to carry out the views herein expressed we deem it inexpedient to present a candidate for chairman before this committee. Resolved, That Grover Cleveland is to be commended for his courageous declaration in favor of safe currency and sound money, and that it is the sentiment of this committee that the president voices the convictions of a large majority of not only the Democrats of this state. but other thoughtful and patriotic peo- ple of the commonwealth, and that a reorgan- ization of the Democratic party in Pennsyl- vania will enable those who believe in a safe currency and sound money to do a hopeful battle against national dishonor and discredit.

Mills, of Lebanon, Conn, says: “I was afliicted with rheumatism in my back all last winter. It was so severe at times that I could not stand up straight, but was drawn over on one side. I tried different remedies without receiving an 4 relief until I bought a bottle of Chamberlain 5 Pain Balm. After uEing it for three days, aocordmg to'directions, my rheumatism was gone and has not returned since. I have since recommended it to others and know they have been benefited by its use.

Last Doubt of the Fact That the War Is Ended Has Been Dissipatcd—English Comments on the Conditions of Peace Imposed by Japan. WASHINGTON, April 18.—The Chinese imperial edict sent from Tien-tsin is ac- cepted among officials and diplomats here as setting at rest the conflicting reports as to final terms of peace and as showing that the first reports via London were in- accurate in their details. The indemnity of 200,000,000 taels is a compromise. Japan first demanded 300,- 000,000 tools, but on the solicitation of Prince Li threw ofi 100,000,000. At the Chinese legation it is stated that the tael varies in value, but that the present value of the customs or. treasury tael, which is undoubtedly the one in which payment will be made is $1.50 in Mexican silver, or about 75 cents in gold. This would make the indemnity equivalent to $300,000,000 Mexican silver, or $150,000,000 in gold. The Mexican trade dollar is the current coin of China and the basis of calculation, so that the belief is very strong, though information on the subject is lacking, that the payment will be in silver. Japan’s New Territory. The edict that Japan is to occupy the Lian-Tong peninsula up to the fortieth de— gree of latitude settles the important point that she is to have the great fortress of Port Arthur and the immediately sur- rounding territory, as foreshadowed in these dispatches. The Lieu-Tong penin- sula is a small point of land jutting south- ward into the gulf of Pechlli. with Port Arthur at its extreme point. The fortieth degree of latitude cuts across the main- land where the little peninsula broadens into the mainland of Manchuria. This lower peninsula has the shape of a sword and is known as “regent’s sw0rd.” The edict does not state whether Japan gets this acquisition permanently or until the indemnity is paid. She has contended on having it permanently, as it would give Japan command of the gulf of Pcchili leading to Peking. If the occupation is temporary, it will give Japan a military command over China as long as the occu- pation lasts. The duration of the occu‘ pancy is most important, and on this point undoubtedly will depend any action Euro- pean powers may take. The permanent occupation of the island of Formosa has been settled for some time. The opening of Peking and four new ports of commerce marks the introduction of modern methods into the interior of China. Japan has gained the privilege of es- tablishing cotton and other factories in China; but it remains to be seen whethel: Japanese capital will invest in these on- terprises or the Chinese buy these modern fabrics. The edict makes a significant omission as to the. reported Japan-China alliance, offensive and defensive, which, if consum- mated, would have given “the orient to the orientals. ” The Japanese and Chinese ofi‘icials in Washington have never credited the report of this alliance. The Story Via London. LONDON, April 18. —A dispatch from Tokyo to the Central News today states that the treaty of peace between China and Japan was signed this morning. The terms of the settlement, the dispatch states, will probably not be divulged until the treaty is ratified. A dispatch to the Central News from Tokyo says that peace ratifications will be exchanged within three weeks, and that the armistice has been extended to mid- night on May 8. A dispatch to The Star from Tien-tsin says an imperial proclamation was issued authorizing Li Hung Chang to sign a treaty of peace with Japan guaranteeing. the payment of 200,000,000 taels indem- nity. By the proclamation Li Hung Chang was empowered to cede to the Japanese the island of Formosa and the peninsula of Lian-Tong to the fortieth degree of lati- tude, to sanction the opening of five new commercial ports, including Peking, and to give Japan the power to open cotton factories and other industries in China. By the terms of the proclamation the import dues at the open ports are not to exceed 2 per cent. Another imperial proclamation has been issued, granting sick leave to the viceroy of Canton and ordering him to retire to his native province. The Pall Mall Gazette, commenting on the terms of peace betwoen China and Japan, as defined by the imperial edict just issued in Peking, says the conditions are better than those mentioned in The Times dispatches yesterday, but the ces- sion of Formosa will surely displease Eng- land, while the cession of Port Arthur will be objected to by Russia. “Our gov- ernment,” The Gazette says, ”may safely be depended upon to do nothing. however, unless the other powers take action. ” A Jap Criticises Our Civilization. SAN FRANCISCO, April 18.—~A Japanese resident of this city sends the following communication to a local paper: “I came from the far cast a few months ago, and my purpose was to see what your civilized nation was doing. Since I arrived in this city, reading your valuable paper every day, I am much surprised because murder is_almost a daily occurrence in this coun- try, besides robbery, reverend doctors rob- etc. Such events occurred every day, shocking murder in church—that’s awful, awful—where is civilization, where is Christianity, where is James Creelman?
