RUSSIA HAS LARGE PLANS
i Talk ‘of‘ Huge Indian IlevoltSets Greai
Britain Tliinking— Russian hIarine For-
ces W'ill be Despatched to the F31
East.
, London, Feb. 2.——The Daily Telegraph
' prints the following from St. Peters-
! burg:
. ‘I have had a conversation with a
Russian admiral, who has been ap-
pointed to the post of chief of a squad-
' ron, concerning the situation in the Fai
Eaét. This officer, in the course. of his
remarks, said:
“Nearly the whole of the marine
forces of Russia will be dispatched to
the Far East, for it is necessary for
RUSSIa to place herself in a position of
naval strength in Chinese waters equal
to that of Great Britain. Russia will
not permit the openeing of a new port
either at Port Arthur or at Ta-Lien-
Wan. We shall soon see that Ger-
many will Say the same thing with re-
gard to Kiao-Chou and the Bay 01
Samsah, while France will prevent the
opening of the Siam Gulf and Nankin
as free ports. Russia, France and
Germany will permit no European
power to carry out any such attempt
against their interests, upon the pre-
text of encouraging Chino—European
trade. for under that condition the
real mistress of China, directing both
her politics and her finances.
“I also called upon a celebrated Rus—
sian diplomatist, who said:
“The conditions of the loan of £12,-
000.000, which Great Britain has offered
to the Chinese Government, are direct-
ed against the interests of Russia and
France, and for this reason our Am-
bassador at Pekin will, together with
his French colleague, struggle to pre-
vent China from accepting the British
overtures. By the opening of the Ta—
SienJVan as a. free port, the value oi
Port Arthur as a naval station would
be diminished. In the spring Great
Britain will no longer occupy herself
with the Chinese question, and will
certainly not take the. offensive, find-
ing, as she will, the necessity of devot-
ing her strength and her energy to In-
dia, where a revolt infinitely more serl‘
ous than the Sepoy mutiny is about to
break out. »
“There RusSia will be able, without
difficulty, to penetrate through A1“-
ghanistan and the Pamirs to the In-
dian possessions of Great Britain, to
whom she will dictate terms. We have
enough troops and well fortified fron-
tiers, with outposts well connected in
the rear with our reserves by railways
and telegraphs, and we could in the
course of a few days place upon the
Afghan frontier an army of 100,000
men. You perceive that all the chances
are on our side, and we do not fear the
threats of England.”
DISTRESS IN THE KLONDIKE.
“'ar Department Informed Thai. It Is
“'orse’fi'l'han Suspected.
Washington, Feb. 2.-Genera1 Mer-
riam opened atVVSeattle the dispatches
brought from captain Bay, the depart-
ment’s special‘ representative in the
Klondike, and forwarded an abstract
of them to the War Department by tel-
egraph. Act-ing'Secretary Meiklejohn
was so much impressed with the state-
ments wired that‘r'he submitted the dis-
patch at once ,tofSecretary Alger, and
after Consultation between these om-
cials the paper was sent, over to the
White House, where it fermed the su«
ject of consideration. gt is said at the
department that the report fully justi-
fies all that has been done "by Secre-
tary Alger- and Assistant Secretary
MeiklejOhn under the authority con-
ferred by Congress to relieve the situ-
ation in the Klondike.
The state of affairs in the Klondike
as thus revealed is worse than was sus-
pected at the War Department, and,
indeed, so large is the task that re-
mains to be executed in order to ensure
the safety of life, that the YVar Depart-
ment officers have” concluded to advise
Congress as to the facts and place
upon the:- Z-egislative ranch the duty oi
devising ways and means to meet the
exigencies of the case.
The abssract of Captain Ray’s report
follows: _
“There is no employment for any
large number of people in any capa—
city; all values are speculative. There
is no fixed standard price for labor.
. There is not likely to be within twelve
months. adequate means of supplying
the people now in Alaska or in the
Northwest Territory. The opinion that
about 7 per cent. of all persons 'who
have entered during past year have
earned their living and hundreds are
now scattered along the river, destitute
of food, clothing‘s‘and money. People
'comlng in have not had the faintest
conception what to do to earn a living
and after spending money they bring,
become dead and helpless. It will be
an act of charity to keep them out.
“In view of recent developments and
knowledge that the lawless are band-
ing together along the river for pur-
poses of robbery, renew suggestions for
the Government placing on the river
of small draft steamers to patrol the
river.” ' -

for the rally. The head officers of the
Christian Endeavor Society state that
the organization is growing steadily
and will soon reach a membership of
nearly 4,000,000. »
The first society of Christian En-
deavor was formed Feb. 2, 1881, in the
W'illiston Chruch, Portland, Me, by
Rev. F. E. Clark, pastor, for the pur— .
pose of training a large number of con-
verts for the duties of church member-
ship. Each society is in some local
church, and in no sense outside. It
exists simply to make the young people
loyal and efficient members of the
Church of Christ. It is the Church
training the young. Its motto is "For
Christ and the Church.”
In November, 1887, there were 52,000
societies, with a membership of 3,000,-
000, chiefly in the United States and
Canada,,and in Australia, Great Brit-
ain, China, India, Japan, and in all
missionary lands. It is found in about
the same proportions in all the great
evangelical denominations, and in .all
their subdivisions. Wherever it has
been established longest it is most fully
indorsed by pastors and churches. Its
essential features are the prayer-meet-
ing pledge, honestly interpreted. the
lookout, prayer-meeting, and social
committees, and the consecration meet-
ing. Other committees are optional.
and the constitution is entirely flex-
ible in other points according to the
needs of the local church.
The officers of the United Society of
Christian Endeavor are: President,
Rev. Francis E. Clark, D. D.; treasurer,

THE HAWAIIAN TREATY.
Senator Davis Claims :1 Two-Thirds Vote
for Annexation.
' Washington, Feb. 2.—The Senate went
into executive session yesterday on the
Hawaiian annexation treaty. The dis-
cussion of this matter has been neglect—
ed _in the Senate for nearly a week,
and this fact has given rise to the ru-
mor that the treaty is losing ground.
This is not true, however,as the friends
of the treaty now show a poll of the
Senate giving a two-thirds vote for an-
efit to the treaty, and the presence here
nexation. The delay has been of ben-
efit to the treaty, and the presnce here"
of President Dole has done much in its
favor. While Mr. Dole has not taken
an active or, open part in the fight
since his arrival, he has had. a. number
of interviews with Senatorsand has
given many new arguments and facts
in favor of annexation. ,
It is a fact that the treaty has, gained
friends since it has been before the
Senate, for when ‘the discussion began
Senator Davis could only count 55
votes surely forratification. He new
states that there are over sixty Sen-
ators ready at any time to vote for the
treaty. Sixty is the two-thirds re-
quired ,and that is why there has
been no hurry to push the treaty. to
the exclusion of other matters. From
nov.r on, however, the Foreign Rela-
tions Committee will insist upon the
treaty being debated until a vote is
reached. No time is yet fixed for this,
but it is thought that after a reason-
able debate Senator Davis will ask the
Senate to fix a. day to vote.
The opposition has announced that
fifteen Senators wish to make speeches,
but when they fully realize that two-
thirds favor the treaty they may con-
sent toan early vote. If the fifteen
Senators should all talk it might be a.
month before the vote is taken.
President Dole expects to leave
‘Washington next Monday, returning to
San Francisco by way of New Orleans
and Texas. Last night he dined at the
White House, the ,Preseldent giving a.
State dinner in his honor. To-night
the President and Mrs. McKinley give
a. dinner to him. to which the Diplo—
matte Corps and Congress are invited.
State Pictures Lost.
Harrisburg, Feb. .2.-—State Librarian
William H. Egle makes serious charges
against Historical Society of "Pennsyl-
vania in a. special report to Governor
Hastings on the condition of the State
Library. Dr. Egle claims’that the-por-
traits: of Thomas W'harton,’Benjamin
Franklin and George ‘Washington be-
longing to the State, have been stolen -,
‘ aged 16 years, while
from the frames and copies of the orig-
inals substituted. These portraits are
in existence, and it is well known by of—
ficials connected with the society that
a prominent citizen of Philadelphia. has
the portzait of Franklin. The librar—
ian says it “erhaps, too late to in-
quire into the facts, but that in his
opinion it is proper to allude to the
matter.

Plymouth, Eng, Feb. 2.-—The mail
steamer Channel Queen, which ran be-

There were sixty-

When the wreck occurred the Sea was

Sixteen 3;“ persons were certainly

four liveswere lost, but gives no de-
tails. The vessel carried sixty-five per-

The weather was very heavy and the
fog thick when the steamship neared
Guernsey, where she lost her course
and struck the rocks. A terrific tide
drift swept her against the rocks, and
the steamship capsized before the boats

The second boat was cleared just as

It was daybreak yesterday morning

Some of the passengers and crew were

The latest report is that nineteen

DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE.
Announcement of the lleinoval of 1\Ir.
Harrii’y Somewhat Premature.
Washington, Feb. 2.—The announce- 3
Harrity .
merit of the remoVal of Mr.
from the National Democratic Commit-
tee appears to have been somewhat
premature. The news of the alleged
retirement of the Pennsylvania. corn-
‘ trial
mitteeman had no sooner became pu‘o- )
Iic than the chairman was made the re-
cipient of many telegrams and letters
and personal visits from the friends of
Colonel Harrity, protesting against
what they termed the illlegal appoint- -
ment of Mr. Gut‘t‘ey. It now transpires
that it was all a mistake, and that Mr.
Harrity
member of the National Committee.
.Mr. Jones said yesterday when ques-
tioned about the matter that the chair:
man of the National Democratic Com-
mittee has no authority to remove any
member of the committee, although he
admitted that he had received many
delegations of silver Democrats in the
State asking for Guffy’s appointment.
No one, except the committee itself,
says Mr. Jones has the power of re-
moving a member of the National Com-
,mittee.
It is likely that at the next meeting
of theDemocratic National Commit-
"tee‘ the-‘matter of the removal of Mr.
Harrity' will, come up, and it is not at
all improbable that the name of Mr,
Guffey will be formally substituted. ‘ '
As Mr. Harrity’s friends are very nu-
merous, in Pennsylvania. it is likely
that there will be an interesting fac-
tional fight. if his opponents carry the
fight into the National Committee.
A M’KiNLEY HONORS MR. DOLE.
Biggest Social Function of the Capital
Seasonufi'ucots Present.
Vv'ashington, Feb. 2.——It has been
years since a dinner has been given in
the White House of the size and im'—
portance of the one last night, when
the President and Mrs. McKinley en-
tertained the President of the Republic
of Hawaii and Mrs. Dole.
Until last night the dinner to the dip-
lomats has always been considered the
most important dinner of the season,
but the Hawaiian President has been
more honored than the diplomats, who
were entertained a week ago at a din-
ner of sixty covers, while for the feast
last night there were seventy—one. It
was an all-round'sort of an affair. all
of the branches of the Government be-
ing represented,.witli the exception of
the Supreme Court.
The members of the Cabinet were
present. General and Mrs. Miles came
for the army. The navy was represent-
ed by the Secretary of the Navy and
Mrs. Long. and the Diplomatic Corps
was present in the persons of the Min-
ister from Hawaii and Mrs. Hatch, and
the Foreign Committees in the Sena;e

the seats at the table. The only unet-

LA'TTIMER RIO'I’ TRIALS.
ties in Court.
Wilkesbarre, Pa., Feb .2.—Not since
the trials of the Molly Maguires ha;
a. case excited so much interest in the
coal regions as that of Sheriff Martin
and his eighty-tWo deputies, which be—
gan in the Luzerne Court yesterday.
Long'before the court was called to or-
der the room was crowded and it was
found necessary to close the doors.
Sherifi Martin and' his‘ eighty-two
deputies are charged with shooting and
killing twenty-two striking _miners and
wounding over fifty more at Lattimer,
this county, on Sept. 10, 1897.
The eighty-two deputies marched in-
to the court room in a. body, and after
seating themselves began 'to read the
apparently uncon-

The bar was crowded with

this section of the State.
ward presided. -
The first move was made by District
'Attorney Martin, who asked that the
special attorneys for the prosecution,
five in number, be allowed to' assist
him. The defense raised no objection,
saying that the assistants would not
avail the commonwealth anything. The
court granted the request.
The commonwealth thereupon asked
for a nolle pros in the cases of Leonard
Babcock, William Dougherty, J. J. Gal-
lagher, William Mulhall, Frederick A.
Sleppy, William Costello, William Sie-
well, John W. Coooks, Jr.; E. C. View-
riner, Thomas A. Harris, Samuel Ar-
nold, Craig Anderson, Samuel Goedry.
District Attorney Martin explained
that while the names .of these men"
were on the indictment, the common-
wealth found that the men were not
present at the scene of the shooting
and therefore could not be held for
Attorney Lenahan, counsel for
the defense, objected, saying that I:
was unfair after the men had been in-
dicted and having the terrible charge
of murder against them, to rob them
of their constitutional rights—a fair
and impartial trial by jury. ,
The argument lasted exactly twenty
minutes and the court then allowed the
motion and the noll proses were enter-
ed. The names of those remaining on
the indictment were then read and
Sheriff Martin and the other defend-
ants answered to their names. The
work of securing a jury was then e-
gun. It will not be surprising if the
entire panel would be exhausted.
A decision as to the use of highways
by strikers rendered by Judge McIlvain
of Pennsylvania will undoubtedly be
used as a precedent during the trial. He
holds that workingmen have a right
not only to strike, but to persuade oth-
ers to follow their example, and that
they may have parades and march
along highways, having no right, how-
ever, to take virtual poésession of a
portion of a highway. ' . .
The defense will contend, and claim
to be able to prove, that the strikers
were committing andtilnciting riot, and
tlaht the Sheriff and his men Were pow-
erless to prevent’th'é‘m, except by re-
sorting to extreme measures.
The other countries—Austria, Italy
and Germany—will, it is expected,
press charges against the Sheriff and
his deputies. Subjects of each of those
countries were among the killed and
wounded. If the charges against the
Sheriff’s posse are sustained the three
countries may institute claims for
damages against the United States. In
view of this situation the United States
Government will be represented by
counsel at the trial. Henry M. H.
Hay-t, a son of former Governor Hoyt,
will appear for the State Department.
More than a hundred witnesses have
beensubpoenaed, but not all of them
will be heard. To see the indicted dep—
uties in the hotel corridors and public
places one would not suppose they
were here to answer a charge of mur-
der. They look like business men as-
sembled to attend a convention of ‘some
kind. Their general demeanor is not
that of criminals, but of men conserva-
tive in talk and dignified in bearing.
