THE OBJECTION Olf' RUSSIA

Latter Country Does Not"Want the Port.
of Talien-Wan Opened--Neither Power
. Willing to Yield in the lVIatteruEng-
land Wants to Build Railroads.

Pekin, China, Jan. 20. —The Tsung-li-
Yamen (the Chinese Foreign Office)
has had another conference on the
subject of the loan, which it is desi1ed
Besides the
right to extend the Burmah Railroad
through Yun- Nan Province (the most
province of China),
Great Britain asks the right to build
railroads through the province of Sze-
Schuan (north of". Yum-Nan), and a
third treaty port is demanded, the
ldentity of which, no doubt, is Siang—
Yin, which Japan proposed to open at
the time of the Shimonesek negotia-
tions.

Slang-Yin is just“south of Tung—Ting
Lake, in the province of Hu-Nan. This
take is an inland sheet of water, situat-
ed about 500 miles up the Yang-tse-
Kiang River, and about 400 miles from
the coast. - It will thus be seen that
If Great Britain succeeds in prevailing
upon China to open the port of Siang-
Yin, she will have a fine trade route
into the very heart of China and into
its most anti— foreign province. Fur-
ther, if Great Britain persists in in—
sisting that the Yang-tse-Kiang prov-
inces be not handed over to a foreign
power, and establishes herself on the
Island of Chusan, which commands the
entrance of the Yang-tse-Kiang River,
she will have permanently opened to
trade the very best portion of the Chi—
nese Empire.

The proposed opening of the port of
Talien-Wan (on the Liao-Tung penin—
sula, and north of Port Arthur, a posi-
tion which would command the rail-
road connecting Port Arthur with the
north and Manchuria) continues to be
the chief difficulty, Russia desiring to

"keep the whole of Manchuria for 11er-

self. Neither power is willing to yield

.onithis point, and the question is no
».longer a commercial one.

The Japanese Policy.

ish battleship Centurion, flagship of
the British squadron. in Chinese
The
organ of _the,_Govern1nent reproaches

Russia, Germany and France with 'fol- ,

lowing a selfish policy in the Far East,
and adds: “Japan will avoid alliances,
but she is prepared to act vigorously, if

necessary for the maintenance of

peace.”

. j ' What China Wiil Grant.
London, Jan. 20.——-A dispatch from

Pekin says China is ready to open
three new treaty ports and to agree to
an extension of railway into Yun—‘Nan

Province, but declines to consent to the .

exclusion of other powers than Eng-
land from the Yang~Tse-Kiang Valley.

 

British Navy Strong Enough.

London, "Jan. 20.—s1r Michael Hicks-
Beach, Chancellor of the Exchequer,
speaking at Bristol last evening, ridi-
zuled the notion of providing granaries,
as has been suggested in some quar-
He said he was convinced the
British navy was strong enoUgh to
hold its own and in any war England
would have many friends ready to sup—
ply corn.

In closing his speech, the Chancel—
lor of the Exchequer announced that
‘China had approached England for as-
sistance to pay the Japanese indem-
nity, and that the negotiations were
still pending. The newspaper state—
ment on the subject be characterized
‘as inaccurate and incomplete. The
Government was not ashamed of these
negotiations, and believed the country
would approve them. :He could see no
reason why foreign powers should 0b—
iect; but if the negotiations failed,
Great Britain would take her stand on
existing treaty rights.

Shot Himself in a Broadway Hotel.

New York, Jan. 20.—-Henry W. Mudge
of Glen Cove, Long Island, killed him?
self in the Continental Hotel at 20th
street and Broadway. A bullet from a
big-calibred revolver ploughed its way
through the right side of Mudge’s head,
and“‘though he was alive when found,
he was so far gone that the rapid work
of phyiscians was of no avail. He
left no word indicating a reason for
taking his life. Mud‘ge was 40 years
old, for many years a resident of Glen
Cove, where he had a wife and son, 15

- years old.

' . TH‘E’bOTTON MILLS STRIKE.

Everything Is QuietnBasIS of Payment to ‘

Be Made the Strikers.

Boston, Jan. 20. —News from the New
England cotton manufacturing centres,
New Bedford, Biddeford and Lewiston,
where strikesare in progress, is to the
effect that everything is quiet, no
movement of any sort having been
made either by the manufacturers or
by employees. Secertary Hart of the
New Bedford Union says he looks for
no particular change for at least two
weeks, and it is/thought unlikely that
the situation in the smaller places will
be altered until action is taken in New
Bedford.

The Spinners’ Union has decided up-
on the basis of,payment to be made to
the strikers while, idle. Union mem-
bers will each be allowed $4 a week and
25 cents extra for every child in his
family under 13 years of age. Doffers
will get $2 50 per week, and joiners $3.
Strike pay will begin on Saturday, Jan.
29.

Mrs. Harriet Pickering, a woman of.
33, is the recognized leader of the 4, 000
women strikers. She will preside at a
mass meeting of women to be held at
the weaversf headquarters to-day.

Chicago, Jan. 20.—Arrangements are
being rapidly completed for the recep-
tion and entertainment of President
Dole, of Hawaii, who is expected to
arrive in Chicago Saturday morning on
the Chicago & Northwestern overland
limited train. Gen. Brooks, comman-
der at Fort Sheridan, will, it is said,
receive orders to have the 1 United
States troops of that garrison meet Mr.
Dole upon his arrival in Chicago and
act as escort to the hotel. A guard
of honor with a complement of staff of-
ficers will also be detailed to wait 011
the Hawaiian President, while in the
city and to escort him to the train on
Sunday.

 

San Francisco, Jan. 20.—President
Dole, of Hawaii, yesterday visited the
Presidio and reviewed the troops. Then
he inspected the batteries and forti—
fications and returned to the city,
where Mayor Phelan and a delegation
of citizens escorted him to the Pacific
Union Club, where he was entertained
at breakfast;

Launching of the Japanese Cruiser.

Philadelphia, Jan. 20.—It is nearly
twenty years since any warship was
built in this country for a foreign pow—
er. The christening of the Japanese
cruiser Kasagi at the Cramps’ ship-
yard to-day is therefore a matter of
national interest. On the last day of
December, 1896, the contract was sign-
ed that called for a vessel to be equal
In material an workmanship to corre-
sponding ships in the American Navy;
the Cramps sayr that not only has the
letter of the contract been carried out,
but that, in general efficiency, the boat
is superior to ‘the'Minneapolis and the
Columbia, the United States cruisers
with which she is supposed to rank.

I Bis Manner Didn’t Suit the Bishop.

A pompous bishop was having his
portrait painted, and after sitting for
an hour in silence he thought he would
break the motony. “How are you get-
ting along?” he inquired. To his as-
tonishment the artist, absorbed in his
work, replied: “Move your head a lit-
tle to the right, and shut your mouth.”
Not being accustomed to such a form
of address, his lordship asked, “May ]
ask why you address me in that man-
ner?"’ The artist, still absorbed in his
work—“I want to take off a little 01
your cheek.”—Tit-Bits.

Health is Happiness.

Health is at the bottom of happi-
mess. The man or woman Who 15 per-
fectly well, enjoys life like a child.
Healthy people do not appreciate the
fact that the country is full [of un-.
happye eople—people who are sick
' with s in ailments, kidney and ,
urinary diseases, liver troubles,
stomach disorders.. If they knew
of all this suffering, their hearts
would go out in sympathy.

' Dr David Kennedy's
lhvorite Remedy

makes sick people happy by mak-
ing them well. It is a prescription
of an old physician. It cures kid—
ney, liver, skin, blood and stomach
disorders. If all sick men and wo-‘
men would only try it.what a happy
wozld this would be!

“ I don't think [should have been able to be
about,’ says Mrs. J.F F.Wade of Stowe, Ver-
mont," if] had not taken Dr. David Kennedy' 5
Favorite Remedy. l suffered from liver and
stomach troubles severely, and I hadtaken
Favorite Remedy but a little while, when I be-
gan to feel better. Now I am perfectly cured. "
