ENGLAND INFORMED By the Japanese Minister That W Exists Between China and Japan. The Japanese minister in London yester- @ay informed the Earl of Kimberley, the ®ecretary of state for foreign affairs, that & state of war exists between Japan and €hina. The Earl of Kimberley replied that Great Britain remained neutral in the mat- ter, although the British government would Immediately take steps to safeguard Brit- $sh interests in the far east. So far as the ®inking of the transport Kow Shing, fly- ng the British flag, is concerned, the envoy Was informed, Great Britain awaits the @tatement of the Englisa captain of that ‘Steamer before making any reply to the Bpolegy offered by Japan. Private advices recetved in Manchester, gEngland, yesterday from Shanghai say hat Japan has ordered the Japanes+ lega- on at Pekin to be closed, and has recalled @ll the Japanese consuls throughout China. The Japanese Version. The following is the offictal account, from the Japanese government's standpoint, of the battle which took place on July 25 be- Bween the warships of Japan and China: “Tne Chinese cruisers the Chih-Yuen and be Kuwanii were observed steaming from fKasan and a transport carrying Chinese "rs, conveyed by the Chinese warship | Was seen coming from Tokii aters | se cruisers Akitsusu, Yoshino | a met the two Chinese warships | mear Pantao Island. The Chinese did not | Jute, but on the other hand they made | @arlike preparations. “In order to get out of the narrow $n which they were situated the Ja’ raisers put to sea, whereupon the uen pursued the Naniwa. “The Naniwa thersupon put about and | Bteamed toward the two Chinese ships. The Sep and the Kuwanil, however, re- reated and the Chih-Yuen hoisted’ the hite flag above the Japanese naval en- fan. ~ye@be Naniwa, consequently, delayed fir- ng upon the warship and then the trans- crossed the bow of the Naniwa. The tter fired a blank shot and signaled the Fansport to stop. “In the meantime, the Chih-Yuen had ap- Proachel under the Naniwa’s stern, end ‘when within a distance of 300 meters she @ischarged a torpedo, which missed the Papanese warship. The Naniwa then open- re upon the Chih-Yuen and the Yoshino Boned in the action. The Chih-Yuen finally and was pursued. The Chinese ship, however, was not overtaken. The Second Warship Filed. “The second Chinese warship, the Ku- want, had, in the meantime, been engaged with the Japanese cruiser Akitsusu, but, like the Chih-Yuen, she finally fled and took ®efuge between the shore and a shoal. «. “The transport carried six guns and had §.100 soldiers aboard. The captain of the Tansport surrendered, but the soldiers on ard of her refused to do so and resisted pture. The Naniwa was ultimately bliged to open fire upon the transport, and Pventually sank her. The captain di thers were rescued by the boats of the Naniwa. “It was afterward discovered that the transport was a British steamer, the Kow Shing. She had on board four chiefs of bat- falion and fifteen colonels of the Chinese ory. in addition to the soldiers referred 0. “The Japanese government, as soon as it was Informed of the sinking of the British Ship. expressed its regrets, declaring to the British charge d'affaires that if, after an frauiry into the subject had been made, japan was shown to be in the wrong, the Japanese government was prepared to make full reparation for the loss sustained. The naval engagement of July 25 should mot be confounded with the naval battle fought on July 30, nor should the Chih- Yuen, a Chinese unarmored ship of ” tons, in this first encounter, be confounded with the Chinese armored battle ship Chen- ‘Yuen, 7.300 tons, reported sunk in the sec- ond fight. see eS E LABOR WORLD.

GAITHERSBURG, Monday evening the town council held a special session. Every member was present, The matter of surveying the streets and establishing street lines was first considered, and the decision was reached to engage County Surveyor Maddox to do the work. Heretofore no regulations have been enacted relative to the distance buildings and busi- ness houses should be erected from the streets, and that subject elicited much dis- cussion, resulting in the decision to estab- lish building lines on all streets. The work 's assigned to the councilmen as follows: West side of Frederick avenue, from rat!- road to boundary, and Chestnut street, to Councilman Phebus; east side Frederick avenue, from railroad to boundary, to Mayor Duvall; Park avenue and Frederick | avenue, from Tailroad to boundary, south, to Councilman Smith; Diamond ‘avenue, from east of railroad to boundary, east, to Councilman Waiker; Brookes & Russell sub- n and Summit avenue, to Councilman omb.

The regular quarterly meeting of Mont- gomery County Grange, No. 7, was held at Beltsville on July 26. Prof. Sylvester of the Agricultural College made an address on the importance of the grange movement, and suggested lines in which it should work in Maryland. Three millions of dol- lars are annually spent in this state for commercial fertilizers, and so it behooves farmers to look after the laws for their inspection and sale; also to find ways of providing plant food without this great drain in our resources, and the steps that are being taken in the science of agricul- ture. A very interesting discussion follo’ ed by Profs. Patterson and Mec*onald, Di- rector Miller and others of the station staff. Prof. Patterson urged upon farmers the importance of having their soil covered in some way during the winter, and so pre- vent the leaching and waste of the nitro- genous matter brought to the surface dur- ing hot, dry weather, y_recom- mended the use of crimson clover.

The next meeting will take place at Bureka Grange Hall, on the 25th of Octobe: The adjourned populist meeting, held last night in front of the court house, was a lively one from start to finish, and the orator of the occasion, “General” J. K. Mor- rison of Kansas, certainly could not com. plain of a lack of enthusiasm, and especial! ly that of the noisy description. The speak- er had not proceeded far in his subject be- fore a din was raised by the clapping of hands, shouting, and the blowing of tin horns. At first he did not appear to be much annoyed, but finally had to yteld when thousands of firecrackers were exploded in the midst of the crowd. The police appear- ed to do all in their power to stop the racket, but in vain; the boys had the town and they held it. It is likely, however, that several arrests will follow.

Bounties Paid to Fathers of Twelve Children or More. Nearly 180,000 acres of rich agricultural land in the province of Quebec has been given away in bounties for large families in the last four years by the provincial gov- ernment. These bounties are regulated by law, and are paid at the rate of 100 acres of government land for every family of twelve or more children. The act governing the bounties was a creation of ex-Premier Mercier; was entitled “an act to confer a privilege upon fathers of families who have twelve children living,” and contains the following preamble: Whereas, It is advisable, following the ex- ample of past centuries, to give marks of consideration for frultfulness in the sacred and civil bonds of matrimony, therefore her majesty, by and with the advice and con- sent of the legislature of Quebec, enacts follows. Then come the provisions of the bill, granting 100 acres of public lands to “every father of a family, whether he be born or naturalized in this province, who has twelve children living, issue of a lawful marriage.” In order to obtain the bounty the appli- cant must present a petition to the provin- cial secretary, accompanied by his certifi- cate of marriage, a certificate of baptism of each of his children, and a certificate,sworn before a justice of the peace, giving the number and names of his children. Up to this date 1,742 fathers of twelve or more children have complied with the conditions of this act and received the state reward. They Want Their Proportion. Not all of them, however, are satisfied with the amount of the bounty. Instances of families of twenty or more children are not rare, and the fathers of these usually look for a reward superior, proportionately, to that acceded those who barely come within the provisions of the act. The Hon. G. Ominet, the present superintendent of education in the Quebec province, is the twenty-sixth child of the same tather and mother. There is a letter on record in the crown lands department of the government from Paul Belanger of River du Loup, an old man who fought in 1837-38 against the CHURCHILL WAS NERVOUS. Appenred in His Pajamas to Stop the Hotel Orchestra. Lord ard Lady Randolph Churchill travel- ed in a private Pullman car for Vancouver, by way of Montreal, on their trip around the world, They will go to Japan, unless the present condition of affairs there should pPrevert, and thence to India, where they will be met by their eldest son. Their im- mediate party inclules Lord Randolph's physician, his valet and a barber, and Lady Randolph's maid. Lord Randolph's friends are seriously concerned and even alarmed over his physical condition. Several times during his short visit to Bar Harbor he plainly exhibited an overstrained nervous condition and great irritability. As an instance of this nervous irritability, he appeared one night in the office of the Malvern Hotel, clad only in his pajamas, to remonstrate against the music for the regu- lar dance of the week ut that hote!. Rumor had it that in his own room, ani before he went to the office in his sleeping suit, he threatened to do something dreadful if the music was not stopped. This serious con- dition has been intermittent only, for Lord end Lady Randolph have acczpted several invitations. They launched one day with Mrs. Arthur Randolph at the Anchorage, afterward going on board the yacht May- flower with Mr. Amory Gardner of Boston. ‘They have also lunched and sailed with the Vanderbilts. Lady Randolph ts considered by her old friends to be looking very well and hand- some. At the Kebo Valley dance she was the belle, and was taken out many times in the cottilon. Much of her time at Bar Har- bor was spent playing arrangements of classical music for two pianos, young Court- landt Palmer being at the other piano. During the absence of Lord and Lady Randolph Churchill from their apartments at the Malvern thieves entered, and several valuable trinkets belonging to lady Ran- dolph were stolen, as well as a sum of money. This did not tend to improve Lord Randolph's condition. Lady Rando!ph is a daughter of the late Leonard Jerome of New York. Her marriage to Lord Randolph Churchill occurred in Paris twenty years ago. Lady Randolph was born abroad. They have two sons, Winston and John Winston. The elder will enter the army. ——_—— +e+ —____ Prof. Penotin, director of the ob- servatory at Nice, France, reports that on July 28 shining specks were ob- served close to the lighted part of Mars, the same as observed at the Lick observa- tory.

Mr. Belanger asks whether three lots of land will be given the families, which, like his own, contain thir- ty-six living children. Otherwise he con- tends that the law would not be -omplete. The number of lots of land so far conced- ed under the provisions of this law by no meais represents the otal number cf fam- ilies of tweive or more children. Applica- Uons for bounties continue to come in at the rate of over 3OH-atyear, or nearly thirty a month. In some cases they ‘e from parents whose twelfth child is yet of ex- ceedingly tender age"and who could not earlier have compted with the conditions of the law. Other appfeations are constant- ly received from people who have only re- cently heard of the law, or who have held back until sure that it was the correct and fashionable thing Yo dé to take the official bounty. In claiming that, the new law simply fol- lows the example of past centuries, its authors are strictly correct. ‘The nauces of Colbert,” framed by the famous minister of Louis XIV, accorded 300 francs per year to the father in Canada of ten liv- ing children, born in legitimate wedlock, and 4) francs to the father of iwelve torn under similar conditions. By the same or- dinances, 20 francs was paid to every young man marrying at the age of twenty or un- der, and the same amount to every young = marrying at the age of sixzeen or under. ———-+0+-- OFFICIAL ACTION. The War Department's Order in Re- gurd to Judge Holt’s Death. The following general order was issued late yesterday afternoon: WAR D=PARTMENT, WASHINGTON, August 1, 1894. The Secretary of War announces to the army the death in this city this morning of Brevet Major General Joseph Holt, brig- adier general retired. Gen, Holt was born in Kentucky, Jan- uary 6, 1807. * Bred to the law, he became eminent in his profession, and especialiy noted as an advo- cate and orator. In 1857 he became com- missioner of patents under President Bu- chanan. In 1850 he entered the cabinet as Postmaster General, and in 1860 became Secretary of War. In 1862 he was appoint- ed by President Lincoin to be Judge Advo- cate General, and served in that capacity unul the date of his retirement,: December 3 For over eighteen years he thus held continuously distinguished positions and rendered eminent service at the capital of the nation. He was breveted major general, March 12, 1865, “for faithful, meritorious and dis- tinguished services in the bureau cf military justice during the war.” Since the date upon which he relinquished active public service, he has lived quietly in retiracy at his residence in this city, His remains will be inte-red in his native state. As a mark of respect to his memory, the flag upon the War Department will be at half-mast until the funeral cortege shall have passed beyond the boundaries of the city. DANIEL S.

About the only matter in connection with the trip which impressed him unfavorably Was the wet weather, which marred the firal days of training as well as the event. ful date of the tournament. The Yale boys were unable to do themselves justice under the trying atmospheric conditions, but Sherrill would not undertake to say wheth- er they suffered more in this respect than their Oxford rival& It is certain, however, that the track athletes of the Yale team did not equal either of their previous public or practice times when..put to the crucial test.
