Japan, on the other hand, 10.—The cabinet yesterday dis- including great milingly accepts this acknowledgment of her rogress and awaits a detailed proposition aé to how much China will concede as a Dasis of peace. It remains to be scen whether apan will demand too much, or China will feld too little, but the inclination of both wers [s 50 strongly toward getting together hat it is belleved that peace will be effected an he basis of Corea’s Independence and a ¢ash indemnity for Japan's war expenditures. If, howover, Japan urges her demands to the ‘éxtent of cession of part of China's territory, the present prospect is that China will not Mumble pride to this extent, but will con- Yinue to prosecute the war as best she can, Telying on the bitter winter now at hand to glve her a temporary respite and defense. i The foregoing briefly summarizes the situa- tion as viewed by the officials hers whe have ecently had most to do with the subject. YAt the outsst Great Britain sought to have the United States and the great powers of Burope intervene. The facts as to these ne- gotiations at Washington have until now not been made public. Mr. Goschen arrived Sep- tember 21 and remained two days. He saw Secretary Gresham in person and presented Great Britain's proposition that the United States co-operate with other powers toward peace. A reply was duly given that this country would not co-operate on the ground, it s said, that the policy of the United States was to avoid entangling foreign alli- | ances on questions in which it had no Im- mediate concern. Since that time no efforts on the part of Great Britain to urge the negotiations have been made 5o far as known. Under these circumstances the present ne- gotiations do not involve foreign intervention, but a mutual arrangement between China and Japan, to which foreign powers will give their moral support. It makes little difference, therefore, what the United Stat or other powers may do, so long as Chi and Japan come together, although both po ers scem to be anxious to have the co-opera- tion of this country and others in their ne- gotiations. To what extent the Chinese minister has directed the negotiations is not exactly known, Ws the legation officials are very secretive. It Is known, however, that the Chinese min- ister had a long conference with Secretary Gresham yesterday morning. This was one f several conferences held within the last en days. It is said, however, that the main roposition on the part of China came direct rom United States Minister Denby at Pekin From the beginning of hostilities the Chi- nese have been anxious to have the United States arbitrate the differences between them- selves and the Japanese which led to the war, but, of course, there could be no ar bitration except upon the request of bo! parties, and it was, lacking. But after the battle of Kiu-Lien-Chang, on October 2 last, when the Chinese suffered their severe defeat at the hands of the Japanese troops who had crossed the Yalu river, and were obliged to return toward Moukden, they be- came thoroughly alarmed and convineed that gomething must ba done to terminate the war, They could not, however, so humble their pride by appealing directly to Japan, but, casting about for some means of ope ing peace negotiations, hit upon the treaty with the United States in 1848, The ver Airst article of the treaty pledges the United States in case China is oppressively or un- Justly treated by another power to use its good offices to arrange the difficulty. It is similar in scope with the first art'ele in our treaty witn Corea, which led Secrets Gresham at the beginning of the troubl to write to Minister Dunn at Tokio regarding the Japanese occupation of Corea, which has excited so much comment Sncouraged by the attitude of the United States at ths time, the Chinese government, as indicated by the Associated press cable dispatches from China at the time, appealed to United States Minister Denby at Peking to cause period varying from one to three years, ac cording to the nature of the locality and the influences of climate. Darwin says that the children of Australians, immediately after birth, are yellowish brown, and becomes dark at a later age. Those of the Guaranys of Paraguay are whitish yellow, but they ac quire in the course of a few weeks the yel- lowish-brown tint of thelr parents. It is curlous to notice that the eyes of a negro child are blue at birth, and his hair of a dark chestnut color, being only curled at the ends.

He was graduated at West Point in 1854, and was No. 4 in his class, | His first commission was that of brevet ond lieutenant of ordinance, and he was as- signed to duty at the Watervliet arsenal in New York. He remained at that post for a year, and then, as a full second lieutenant, he was placed in command of the Kennebec arsenal in Maine. He todk part in the Seminole war in Florida in 1857 as chief of ordnance on General Harney's staff. From September 21, 1857, until June 3, 1861, he was assistant professor of mathematics at West Point. When the war of the rebellion broke out he resigned his commission in the regular army—then a first lieutenancy—to accept the commission of colonel in the Third regiment of Maine volunteers, Maine being his native state Promotion was rapid in those days for the young officers of the regular army who a ted commands in the volunteer servic His colonel's commission was dated the 28th v of May, and he was in command of a brigade in Heintzelman’s division at the bat tle of Bull Run on the 2ist of July. The personal bravary for which he has been dis- tinguished even above his fellow soldiers was amply displayed on this disastrous field and so impressed the men of his own com- mand that they presented him with a sword On the 3d of September, 1861, he became a brigadier general of volunteers. Indeed, it was only for a few days at the very first of his volunteer service that he commanded any body of troops smaller than a brigade. He was stationed in the defenses of Wash- ington, at one time under Casey, and at an- other under Sumner, until the spring of 1862. Then he went with McClellan on his famous peninsula campaign, engaging its various operations, busy with the un- loading of stores at Yorktown, and taking an important part in the battle of Fair Oaks, where he was twice wounded and lost his right arm. He was not long absent from the front as an invalid, and even while convalescing was busily employed ralsing troops in Maine. In September he was again at the head of a brigade. This time it was the California brigade attached to Sedg- wick's division. As its commander he went through the northern Virginia campaign, and when it came to a disastrous end he | covered the retreat of the army to Washing- ton. He continued in command of the same brigade in the Maryland campaign of Sep- tember, 1862, and on the battlefield of Antietam succeeded to the command of the cond Division of the Second Corps, General Sedgwick having been disabled by wounds. He was commlssioned a major general of volunteers November 20, 1862, ‘and was en- gaged in the Rappahannock eampaign in the dreary winter of 1862-3. He was conspic uous in the disastrous battle of Frederick burg, and in the spring was placed in com- mand of the Eleventh corps. It was while at the head of this corps, and at the battle of Gettysburg, that General Howard ren- dered his mo:t conspicuous service during the war. After the death of General Rey- nolds, on th first day, General Howard cupied Cemetery ridge, holding it as the Key of the union position. His judgment was vindicated by the events of the 2d and | 3 of July, and it was generally recognized | that his foresight had contributed much to | eral Meade victory hat officer gave | neral Howard due credit in orders, and | ngress thanked him by name in a resolu- | tion adopted January 28, 1864. In 1870 con- | gress awarded him the medal of honor for “distinguished bravery at the battle of Fair Oaks, Virginia, June 1, 1862, leading the Sixty-first New York volunteer infantry in the charge across the enemy's line, where he was twice severely wounded in the right arm, necessitating its amputation.” He left the army of the Potomac in the early autumn of 1863, and, with the Bieventh corps, was transferred to the Army of the | Cumberland. He participated in the move- ment for the relief of Knoxville and was | with Grant at Lookout Mountain. Barly in the spring of 1864 he was transferred to the command of the Fourth army corps and marched with Sherman to the sex. Be.ore the expedition the army had plenty of fight- | Ing, and General Howard has his share of it. He was in the battles, among others, of | Tunnel Hill, Rocky Face Ridge, Buzzard's Roost, Resaca, Kenesaw Mountain and Peach- tree Creek. He was at the siege of Atlanta He was wounded at Pickett's Mill. In July, 1864, he was placed in command of the Army and Department of Temnessce. He took part at the battle of Joneshoro and commanded the troops engaged In the battle of Ezra Church. For his gallantry in this action he was rewarded with a brevet m. generalship in the regular army on March 13, 1865 He commanded the right wing of Sherman's army in its march from Atlanta to Savannah. | For taking Fort McAllister, near Savannah General Sherman recommended him for pro- | motion to the rank of brigadier general in | the regular army, The rank was conferred upon him December 21, 1864, He took part | |in the operations and actions that followed | the fall of Savannah, and that ended in-the | surrender of General Joseph E. Johnston | at Durham Station, North Carol April 26, | : | When peace came General Howard was | { made the head of the freedman’s bureau, and | for seven years he pndeavored to do his duty | his government to intervene, and Mr. Denby transmitted the application to Washingtc where It was laid before the president, who | has had it ualer consideration for a week or more. As our representations in the ca of the occupation of Corea had little effect there was no reason to suppose that a dif ferent result would follow an attempt to use our good offices in favor of China As already indicated our government was indisposed to co-operate directly with Euro. pean nations In any effort to coerce either party to the war, and for this very reason we wero independent intermediary in bringing about peace. Both China and Japan were assurcd thet we were free from any of the suspicions of & desire to secure accessions of tersitory in Asla which hung over the Burcpean powers, and their confidence in our firmness and impartiality was strikingly manifested by the selection of the United States by both nations to care for their sub jects in the other territory. 8o th ted i States is at present p ed In a position where | she would naturally be looked to by both | China and Jupan to serve as an arbitrator | in case of a dificulty in arranging terms of | peace, and it is, therefore, very improbable | that we will forfelt this position by yielding | BOW to China's request to intervene. Arbi trate we may, but we cannot intervene in th manner In which the matter is summarized by officials here. If the Chinese governn desires the United States to present the nese proposition to Japan, this n be done by Mr. Denby, but it is felt here that the only way would be for China to submit her proposals directly to Japan when it would b, sntirely within the bounds of propriety for the United States to express the gratitude it would feel as a nation, friendly to both na Mons, to see pgace restored on honorable lines Another department officlal presented the Japanese view of the present negotiations u tollows : “Japan recognizes China's eraft wnd she 1s not likely to be misled by any move she may make.” R s The Colored Infant.

He is known as a “Christian soldier,” for he is possessed of the religious enthusiasms which marked the fighting men of the religious wars, that nerved the arms and aroused the spirits of the Huguenots, the Puritans, and the Catholies, and that lat by Havelock and Gordon.

AllL the rumors and talk about the com pany figuring on leaving this city is mere bosh. The Hammond plant is one of the best managed and most prosperous of any in the Magic City, and the owners are | anxious to hurry up the rebuilding. The fact that Mr. Holeomb is elected Is not bothering the heads of the stockholders, who have found a prosperous fleld to operate a packing industry in this locality. The rebuilding o/ the Hammond plant will give employment to many South Omaha men, and it is quietly given out that even the larger contracts will go to men who either live in South Omaha or Omaha. The people of this city who have property in- terests here sympathize with the company and propose to lend whatever assistance they can in upbuilding the plant. Ision that Will Cause Changes. The decision handed down by the supreme court Friday determining the class to which the city of South Omaha belongs meets with general approval. In fact, it was exactly what the authorities had anticipated | The opinton makes South Omaha a city of | the first class. | worked under some time and changed but ittle, The mayor and council have this heading, however, for matters in detall will be When the present mayor and council took charge of the city affairs among the first laws made increased the pay of the city attorney, city clerk and city engineer. Under the old system, however the pay of these officials was smaller, but each was allowed a deputy and other extrs which made the total greater than the ordi- nance passed by the new council, which cut oft all expense except the direct salary. Immediately after the ordinance was passed the Taxpayers league took up the matter | and secured an injunction restraining the | payment of the increased salaries and claim- ing that this was a city of the second class. Attorney City Farnsworth took the matter to the supreme court and the decision was not rendered until yesterday. More than $10,000 bave been paid in on the school tax levy, which was made under | the declaration, that this was a city of the second cl Only a small portion of this levy was paid under protest, so the property owners who paid this tax are out just that amount of cash, The decision will increase the number of members of the school board from six ‘o nine and it is not unlikely that next May the charge for liquor licenses will be fi creased to $1,000. The school levy has already been made for this year by the county commissioners, Lut in the future it will have to be made by the mayor ard councll The city council has on hand at the present time a number of pelitions to grade streets which have been heid back until after the decision was rendered by the supreme court. They will now be taken up and acted upon in the near future. In discussing the action of the supreme court yesterday morning Attorney J. H. Van Dusen, who instituted the proceedings under instructions from the South Omaha city council, said: “I have not seen the text of the decision, but am not at all surprised. During the time that I was city attorney the question of the c of 0 whic outh Omaha belonged was frequently raised arly every purchaser of bonds issued by city brought the question up. - T al- maintained that the act of 1891 was the way unconstitutional and that South Omaha was a city of the first class.” After the Tax- League was organized they insis Lt we were a city of the second class, and were therefore entitled to all the road fund, and sought to have the city council instruct | me to commence mandamus proceedings to | compel the county treasurer to pay over all the road fund instead of one-half. Ir we were a city of the first class we were only entitled to one-half; if the second class, to the whole. The council then asked for y opinion, which I gave in writing, holding that we were only entitled to one-half of that fund. This position did not suit the Taxpayers League and they obtained the opinion of one of the ex-judges of this county to the effect that I was wrong. It is a good thing for South Omaha that the supreme court has held the act of 1891 un- constitutional, and that therefore the city is one of the first class.
