LATEST NEWS BY WIRE SHANGHAI, November 6.—The British officials here have sent an ultimatum to the viceroy demanding a settlement of the Chung King affair within seven days. The British demands are that Taotai Sheng be dismissed and degraded, the Chung King is to be saluted with twenty-one guns from the Taku forts, and a money indemnity is to be paid to the owners of the Chung King. if their demands are not complied with within the specified time reprisals upon the part of the British fleet are threatened. The Chung King affair is one of the re- markable incidents of war between China and Japan, and have serious re- sults. On August 4 last a Tien Tsin dis- patch announced that the thirteen Japanese soldiers who had been forcibly removed by the Chinese from the British steamship Chung King were returned immediately upon the viceroy, Li Hung Chang, being notified, and it was hdded that the vic.roy apologized to tle British consul. On August 7, however, a dispatch from Shanghai announced the arrival there of the steamship Chung King, and the cap- tain of that vessel gave his version of the affair, which gave it a more serious aspect. ‘The captain said that while his ship was at Tungku, on the Gulf of Péchili, Chinese soldiers went on board of her for the pur- pose of seizing the Japanese passengers. ‘They found on board the steamship sixty Japanese, mostly women and children, and at once began to hunt them down. The Chinese pursued the Japanese all over the vessel, bound them hand and foot as soon as caught, and flung them over on the wharf. Li Hung Chang eventually, upon the protests of the British consul, com- manded the Japanese to be returned on board the Chung King, and ordered the Chinese soldiers who had made the raid to be severely punished. ses SS HAMERTON, AUTHOR-P9ET, DEAD. The Eminent Art Critic Passes Away in Pari PARIS, November 6.—P. G. Hamerton, the well-known artist, author and poet, is dead. Philip Gilbert Hamerton was born at Laneside, Lancashire, England, September 10, 1834, his father being a cadet of an an- cient Yorkshire family, the Hamertons of Hellifield, Peel and Hollins. A taste for the fine arts led him to study landscape painting, and he began to exercise his pen very early in life by contributing to the Historic Times a series of articles, entitled “Rome in 1849," and in 1855 he published a volume of verses, “The Isles of Loch Awe, and Other Poems,” with illustrations by the author. Later Hamerton went to France and studied painting and French literature. On the establishment of the Fine Arts Quarterly Review he became a frequent contributor to it, and also contributed to the Fortnightly Review. In 1866 he became art critic to the Saturday Review; he resigned in.1868, in which year he published “Ktch- ing and Etchers.” During 1868 he also pub- lished essays on French art, and Ase wrote his first novel, “Wenderholine,” “The Intellectual Life,” one of the most widely known of Hamerton’s works, appeared in 1873, and in 1876 he published “Round My House,” an account of the author's per- sonal observations of rural life and char- acter in France. Mr. Hamerton, in 18 mously, “‘Marmorne,” successful in England, United tStates. In 1882 appeared “The Graphic Arts,” a treatise on the varieties of drawing, painting and engraving in com- parison with each other and with nature, and in 18%5 he published an important work, richly illustrated, on “Landscape.” Mr. Hamerton was a member of the Bel- gian Etching Club and an honorary mem- ber of the Society of Painter-Etchers. In 1882 the French government conferred upon him the university decoration of an officier de V'academle. Mr. Hamerton was also the author of many other interesting works on painters andgpainting. so KNEW TOO MUCH TO LIVE. France and_ the A Witness Murdered in the Streets of Tacoma, Wash. TACOMA, Wash. November 6.—About ‘daylight the lifeless body of Matthew A. Bartlett, a well-known young man, was found on the sidewalk by a newsboy. His right ear was bruised and his nose bloody, but he bore no other marks of violence, though papers from his pockets were scat- tered about. His watch was untouched, ‘The theory is generally advanced that Bart- lett. was murdered for knowing too much about the mysterious death of Accountant Joseph Shadle, at the Steilacoom Asylum last month. Some claimed then that Shadle was poisoned, though a subsequent investi- gation seemingly refuted the claim. ‘At that time Bartlett was an attendant at the asylum, remaining until last Sep- tember. Several nignts last week he was followed by two men, and in explaining the matter to friends he said that it was be- use he knew too much about the Shadle case. He bought a revolver and was much worried about the matter. Subsequently the two mysterious men attempted to hold him up, but he evaded them. peboaen th FOR STRUGGLING CHURCHES. of the Late Col. a Devout Soldier.

On the other hand, republican campaign .man~ agers claim a good working majority. Chairman Babcock of the republican con- gressional committee last night issued a declaration of the claims of the party by states. He sent the following telegram to Vice Chairman Apsley, in Hudson, Mass.: “I have information from all states and close congressional districts, and without a ‘Single exception these. rts show large republican gains, and from the latest ad- vices I figure upon 183 districts that will elect republicans beyond question, and thir- ty-five districts in which we have more than an even chance to élect.

HOW THE ODDS VARIED © e ‘The bookmakers and sporting men gener- ally seem to have been very shy of offering bets on the result in New York until last night, when reports from New York city indicate there was a lively time among bet- ting men around the St. James’ Hotel. The odds were heavily in favor of the republi- cans carrying the state. There was plenty of money offered on Morton at large odds; more money, in fact, than the Hill backers seemed to care to cover. There was a con- stant fluctuation of odds, each bettor get- ting the best he could. The New York Her- ald today publishes the following as a gen- eral summary of the odds: . Highest. Lowest. Hill to win,......... 4t010 1 to 4 Morton to have 25,- 000 plurality....... Even 4 12 to 10 Strong to have 25,- 000 plurality...... Even 8 Constitu’nal amend- ments to pasr..... 2to 1 5 to 4 Hill to carry Brook- 10 to 71-2 Even jest bettor of the campaign has been F. T. Adams, a stock exchange broker, who has put up so much money for himself and as agent for several wealthy men that he has practically made the odds since the candidates were first put in nomination. He reached the St. James at 7 o'clock and immediately announced that he had $30,000 to put on Morton at odds of three to one. There was nobody present who had $10,000 ready to back Hill, but the broker m: to place the greater part of the money dur- ing the evening in comparatively small lots, the largest single wager being $7,000 to $4,200 that Morton's plurality would exceed He announced very early that he had placed $100,000 in all on Morton since the campaign opened, but he mage several bets afterward that materially swelled this total. His largest bet during the afternoon was $10,000 to $4,000. He refused to disclose the taker of the Hill end of the wager. He bet $2,500 to $1,000 with Harry Combs, and of- fered to bet $10,000 to $7,000 that Morton's plurality would exceed 25,000, but no takers responded. Then he lowered the smaller end to $6,000, and still no one came for- ward, When he offered $5,000 to $3,000 he found a taker. Warren James bet H. Benedict of Bene- dict Brothers $5,000 to $2,500 on Strong. This was the first 2 to 1 bet on the anti-Tam- many candidate for mayor. Mr. James also bet on Strong $5,000 to $2,500 with Kerr & Co. R. H. Halstead went the rounds of the stock exchange, stopping at every group to bet $1,000 to $500 on Strong. Finally W. D. Oliver said he would furnish $200 toward the Grant end of the bet, and he induced three other brokers to put up $100 each to fill out the $500. J. C. Kilbreth of Farr & Co., then offered on Strong $500 to $200. Harry Content took the bet. At the consolidated exchange Mr. B. Mendham offered $10,000 at 10 to 6 on Strong and $8,000 at 10 to 4 on Morton. A Mr. Huntington put up $800 on Hill against $2,000 of Mr. Mendham’s money, and J.W. Van Ness bet $500 on Grant against $1,000 of Mr. Mendham's wager. Mr. Mendham was reported to have bet $00 on Morton against $200 with a Mr. Cumberson. Charles A. Hess, the lawyer, said he had placed in Wall street $1,000 to $600 on Strong, G. P. Dodge, a broker, taking the Grant side, and $250 on Strong ‘against $180 bet by J. C. Smith. There was practically no betting up ‘town until Sunday night, when “Joe” Vendig of race-track fame entered the St. James Hotel and made known that he had about $40,000 to bet on Hill and Grant at the prop- er ‘odds. The money belonged to “Mike” Dwyer and a-syndicate of men who were willing to take the chances with odds in thelr goo Very little money was bet Sunday night and yesterday afternoon it was again taken to the St. James Hotel to be placed. Vendig tees poet A $35,000 to bet on agains 100, on Morton. accepted his offer. ag Me @ first large bet made up town yester- day was upon the state election. “Mikes Dwyer bet “Bill” Connors, the bookmaker, $4,000 against $10,000 that Hill would be ed. “Jimmy” Wakely bet $1,200 on Hill $3,000 on Morton. “Barney” Assons twine was supposed to be acting for “Al” Smith, was the other party to the bet. a “Sol” Lichtenstein and “Butch” Thomp- son made a bet of $800 against $2,000, which Thompson bet on Morton. “Tobe” Wall, a Baltimore bookmaker, has bet $8,500 on Morton at odds of 5 to 2 It was said yesterday that the members of the Book- makers’ Club, at 30 West 29th street, have placed $60,000 on Morton at odds of 5 to 2. At the Fifth Avenue Hotel “Lou” Jones announced yesterday morning that he had $100,000 to bet on Morton at 3 to 1, but no* one stood willing to accommodate him. “Butch” Thompson bet $1,400 to $2,000 that Morton would not have 25,000 plurality. It was said that “Bob” Pinkerton would be at the St. James with $60,000 to place on Mor- ton, but if he appeared he did not bet the money. Orlando Jones bet F. T. Adams $3,000 against $5,000 that Morton's plurality would not exceed 25,000, J. J. Hagan made two bets that were calculated to stimulate Grant's followers. He went into the St. James lobby during the afternoon and bet $1,000 on Grant against $600 on Strong with “Joe” White, and followed this with a bet of $500 even that Grant would be elected. A bet of $300 on Grant against $500 on Strong was made, and the money placed in Ven- dig’s hands, as was also $1,600 that was bet $1,000 to $600 on Strong against Grant. J.’ Hess placed the money on Strong, and the “Lincoln Club” the money on Grant. E. A. Mathlessen, who was betting on Morton Sunday at cdds of 21-2 to 1, placed $15,000 last night. He placed $10,000 at odds of 5 to 2, and $5,000 at odds of 5 to 21-2. eee CHILEAN AFFAIRS. What Minister Gana Says of the Re- cent Resignations, Minister Gana of Chile says concerning the reports that the president and vice president of the Chilean senate have re- signed, as a result of the conversion laws, that the laws direct the payment in gold of the paper money or notes fssued in 1879. The notes were somewhat similar to the American greenback, but were issued whol- ly on the faith of the government, and not convertible into coin. It was found that the exchanges were badly affected by the unsecured notes, -so that the Chilean con- gress passed a law making them convertible into gold in July, 186. At present an ele- ment in Chile is urging that the date of the conversion shail not be put off until 1896, and it is on this question that the senate officers have resigned, according to unoffi- cial advices. Senor Gana says the president and vice president of the senate are elected monthly, in order to keep them responsive to the sentiments of that body. Minister Gana learns from his country that the mining exposition in progress there is very successful, although the United States exhibits are ‘not all that could have been wished. The German and British ex- hibits are elaborate, the former being aided by the German government. ‘Concerning the amnesty laws of Chile re- cently announced through the State De- partment, Senor Gana says they are much broader than has been understood. They cover all persons in any way charged with political offenses during the Balmaceda regime, or subsequent thereto. This will have the effect, the minister says, of having many persons return to Chile. ee Venezuela Claims Commission. Mr. G. C. Weckerlin, the minister from the Netherlands, will be invited to become the third member of the Venezuelan claims commission. Mr, N. L. Jeffries and Venez- uelan Minister Andrade are the other two members, and the above action was de- termined’ upon at a meeting last night. Minister Weckerlin is now absent in Eu- rope, but he will be communicated with by cable, rte Cit rte ce oteertoscatacatsasstaatiboanssatanessseasaonooraubessabia a FOR SALB (Houses). POR.
