Tug Sea Lion Takes Her in Tow | 4 and Heads for Port Townsend. The Vessel Lumber-Laden—Boats Missing and Fears That Her Crew Has Perished. OVS_N VICTORIA, B. C., Dec. 29.—Captain Debney of the steamer City of Puebla reports that on his way north from San | Francisco he sighted a lumber laden | bark ashore five miles south of Cape | Flattery. He signaled, but got no an- | swer. The bark was seemingly aban- | doned. Heavy seas were running. | At midnight word was received from Tatoosh that the vessel reported ashore | by Captain Debney, of the City of Puebla, was the bark Tidal Wave, Cap- tain Lancaster, which left Tacoma De- cember 18 with lumber for San Pedro, Cal. She is now being towed into Port Townsend by the tug Sea Lion. All the bark’s boats are missing, from which it is supposed that the officers and crew, fearing she was going to sink, put off and left her to her fate.

Poland had established a pre- tedent in international affairs, he said, and, following that precedent, if Chin. was to be absorbed, then {t was a que: tion which the United States, in com- mon with all the natlons of the world, must take cognizance of. TUntil this final movement occurred, however, it was plain the United States had no in- terest in the fencing of European na- tions, and Japan for coaling stations &nd s on the Aslatic coast. In the meantime, the diplomats are mu concerned in the movements of their respective Governments. A lead Ing Japanese diplomat satd to-day: I flo not look at the question as Involving the partition of China, and no event has becurred thus far to indicate that Chi- ha is about to be divided among the powers. Germany has occupied Kiao Chau Bay, &nd Russia has a fleet at Port Arthur. But Germany's action was taken to col- lect an indemnity for an indignity to German missionaries, just as she forced Indemnity from Hayti. “Beyond this Germany may seek to establish a naval station at Kiao Chau and thus have a base of operations on the Pacific. That does not involve the taking of any considerable portion of Chinese territory, and it is yet to be shown that Germany will take more than a, coast port and such land imme- dlately adjacent as to give the port proper facilities. If it comes to taking territory; the course of China must not be overlooked. While China is weak from a military and naval standpoint, yet she has an enormous number of men ready to take the fleld, while the entire force of Germans at Kiao Chau cannot exceed a few thousand men Even a weak nation Is strong in de- fending its own territory. There are reports that Japan would aid China in | an extremity, but there is nothing in that. Japan doubtless will act alone if there is any reason for acting at all Thus far, however, I know of no steps that Japan has taken or contemplates toward taking part in the controversy. My impression is that she will remain independent and a neutral observer. Her position will be much stronger by such a policy than it would be by an alllance. As an observer, if she sees that the partition of China is at hand, doubtless she would have some part to take, but for the present there is no evidence that such an emergency is npear.” Another Japenese diplomat said: “All the powers have known for months that a secret treaty was made last year between Russia and China, by which Russia was to have the right to winter her fleet at Port Arthur. For that reason the presence of the Rus- sian fleet at Port Arthur does not lead other nations to fear Russia has begur & movement of territorial aggression on China. On the contrary, Russla &nd China are nearer together than any other two nations in the present con- test, and if China is to get any out- side rellef it will come from Russie. It is quite plain, from recent events, that Rusele has not got ready yet to have Chine partitioned, and until Rus- #la is ready for that step, it will not oc- cur. Moreover, there 18 a misappre- hension as to Russian occupation of Port Arthur. It is not a land occupa- tion, but merely a quartering of the Russian fleet in the outer harbor, Viadivostok being ice-bound, without connection with the shore.” A Chinese diplomat said: “The al- Jeged statements coming from the Chil- nese legations have been unwarranted, s the legation has not recelved a word from Peking since the first notice was gent that a German force had landed at Kiao-Chau without previous no- tice to the Chinese Government. It is felt, however, that many of the re- ports as to the serfousness of the situ- ation, particularly those from Sheng- bai, are overdrawn. Judging from the press dispatches, there appears to be little doubt that the original purpose of Germany to enforce an indemnity bm now developed into securing a ne- wal station at Klao-Chau and pos- gibly more territory on the ground that Germany is entitled to a return for her services during the China-Ja- pan war. But it appears to be over- looked that Germany has received 4istinct returns for those services in the granting of large céncessions ‘which at the time of the grant were considered as most valuable to Ger- many. As to the Russian fleet at Port Arthur, that is not a surprise. A Russian fleet was wintered at a Chi- nese port last winter with the consent of China, as It involved no sacrifice of territory. What the outcome will be 1s difficult to say, but it is felt that an emicable settlement wiil be made, pos- miply by the granting of cosst sfa-| eompetent to fill the ohlet advieer's | tion, The only tangible. fact is that | tions, but without any serious dismem- bermont of territory.” The German officiale here take the view that there are but two actual | stepe on the part of Germany, namely, | the vocupation of Kiao-Chau Bay and | the dispateh ef Prince Henry's fleet to | Chinese waters. Beyond this, they | say, #ll ls eonijecture as to what Qer= | meany will dej that Prinee Henry will | extenid his fleld of operations beyond | Chinege waters and will embrace Ha- moa and Hawall {g dlsmissed as #b- surd, although reperts of such a move- | ment have been current. | The Hritlsh embassy hae not re- cetved a word from the Forelgn Offlce on the Mastern sftuation, but, in com- men with other diplomats, the ofl- clals view the sftuation as the most interesting one now occupying atten- Phere {8 a general Aispoattion to credit the late reports that a consld- erable British fleet {s at Port Hamil- ton, off Korea, and that a large num- ber of Japarese ships are in the same vicinity. There are some 17 British ships on the Asiatic station, and a good part of them appear to be cen- tering about Korea. This, however, is said to be apart from the general question of Chinese partition and to relate only to the displacement of an English officlal who had an influen- tial position in the administration of Korean affairs. French diplomats say France is not likely to take any part in a struggle for Chinese territory, if that eventu- ty comes, as France already has se- cured most extensive possessfons In southeastern China, notably French Tonquin. It was M. Patenotre, the late French Embassador at Washing- ton, who caerried through the negotia- tions with ILi Hung Chang by which France secured this foothold on Asi- atic sofl. Beyond the sending of the French cruiser Jean Bart to Chinese waters, it 1s said that the Chinese sit- uation does not appear to have aroused France, and the dispatch of this cruiser is said to have no more | significance than the sending of the | United States cruiser Raleigh, which is now on her way to the Chinese sta- tion. - THE GERMAN ADMIRAL PACIFIES THE CHINESE IN EFFECTIVE FASHION. While It Appears That Russia Has Virtually | Taken Possession of the Land of Great Korea. VICTORIA, Dec. 29.—Mails from the Orient to-day bring the text of the proclamation of the German admiral upon the occasion of the seizure of Kiao Chou Bay. It is rich in German humor. Von Diederichs, commander in chief of the Imperial German East- ern fleet, after stating that his sove- reign had instructed him “To land at | Kiao Chou Bay at the head of my force and seize the said bay and all the isl- ands and dependencies thereof,” de- fines the boundaries and adds that the territory is to be held until the case of the murder of the German mis- sfonaries in Shang Tung be settled. He then addresses the people thus: “I find it necessary to exhort to you | all to continue your servile avocations | and avoid listening to the words of the disreputable and rowdy class to create disturbances. As a matter of fact Germany and China have always been friendly and at peace, and for- merly when China was at war with Japan Germany used her utmost ef- forts to rescue China from her di- lemma. This was to prove our friend- ship to China power. mies of China, hesitate and entertain suspicionsabout us.” The admiral proposes that “any dis- contented characters who shall en- deavor to create disturbances shall be beheaded,and that if any German sub- jects be killed the murderers shall be shot.” He continues: “You should caiculate the exigencies of the case, and you will see that you are too weak to resist.” Partioulars have also been recelved of the outrage upon the Chinese gen- eral of Kiao Chou, who, when on his way to the German admiral to for- mally protest against the occupation, party of German being killed by the three volleys di- rected at them. The general was then made a close prisoner on the German flagship. The text of the Alexeieff agreement between Russia and Korea has been re- | ceived here. It recites that the send- ing of the Russian of that name to superintend the financial and customs administration of the Korean Govern- ment wes at the request of the King of Korea, and after defining his duties and providing for the dismissal of the ‘Englishman formerly filling the posi- tion of Chief Commissioner of Customs, it proceeds: ‘“The friendly relations between the two countries are such that it is not necessary to decide the limit of the duration of this agreement, therefore it holds good indefinitely. But whenever Korea has among her own people one whose financial ability Is as a neighboring | ‘We are now here, not as ene- | hence you need not | position, then said chief adviser may be released from his pest after the two Governments have come to an agree- | ment on the subject. Except Korean or Rusglan no ene of any other nation- ality shall be employed.” The officers and bassengers of the steamship Victerla, just in from the Orient, eay that all is excitement on the other side of the Paclfic. People in all the walks of life expect that there will be a crash among the great | power# over the melgure of different ports in China. The fleets of each nation have been massed in readiness efther to fight or to make a show. The British flagship Century, at Hongkong. has been ordered to begin no work that would detain her in port longer than twenty-four hours. Jap- anese papers are anxious for England to make some move, but they advies Japan to take a prudent attitude and simply watch the progress of events. The German admiral, {n a proclama- tion to the residents of the districts seized by Germany, advises them to conttnue their peaceful avocations, and warns them that any breaches of the law will be punished. There were at Nagasaki on Decem- ber 8, 1897, nine Russian warships, two American cruisers, the Olympia (in dock) and the Boston, and the British cruiser Lamertal. Nine of the Chinese bandits who took part {n the murder of Chinese priests at Yenchaufu, which gave Germany a cause for the seizure of XKiao Chou bay, have been apprehended and much of the plunder recovered. Advices from Peking say: The pro- posed arrangement for a Ruselan aranteed 4 per eent loan of 400,000,- taels is not yet ratified. The situa- tion is disastrous and the only hope is that England will render flnancial help, as otherwise war is the only al- ternative. Sir Claude Macdonald, the British Fmbassador, bas asked a few d& deley in order to refer the matter tothe home Government. Ao A THE EMPEROR OF CHINA VERY GREATLY DISTURBED BY THE SUN'S ECLIPSE. It Is Feared the Darkening of the Luminary on New Year's Day Portends Evil to the Empire. WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.—The State Department has just recelved a copy, through United States Minister Denby, of the recent curious decree issued by the Emperor of China to fend off the wrath of Providence, as indicated In the eclipse predicted for New Year’s day. The document is pronounced by experts to be a masterful exhibition of typical Chinese statesmanship In view of the existing critical condition of affairs in the Celestial empire. The decree reads as follows: According to the Chun Chiu Gpflng and autumn annals), it has been state that an eclipse of the sun of the first day of the vear betokens an impending calamity, hence the sovereigns of every dynaety which precedes you have always made it a point, whenever an eclipse of the sun is prognosticated. to umdergo self-abasement and humbie themselves before heaven in order to abate the wrath from above. In the case of our own imperial dynasty, for instance, dur- ing the reigns of their Majesties, Kang Hsi and Chien TLung (1682-1784), there were observed two eclipses of the sun which fell on a New_ Year's day, and now, according to the Board of Astrono- the first day of the twenty-fourth year of our reign (224 January, 1898) there will yet be another ecl of the sun. We are filled with fore lings at this news and hasten to seek within our- selves for sins which may have thus brought the wrath of high heaven upon the land. We further command that the ceremonies of congratulation usually held on_New Year's day In the Tatho Throne Hall be curtailed and only ordi- nary cbeisances be made, the place be- ing changed to the Chien Tsing Throne Hall instead of the Taiho Throne Hal. The banquet usually given to the Im- perial Clansmen on New Year's day must also be !t:finéd. and when the eclips occurs let members of the court wear sober garments and assemble In the in- ner palace before the altar set up to heaven to pray for forbearance and mer- cy to the country at large. This is =o far as shall concern ourseives, to show our desire to propitiate high heaven: but as her Majesty, the Empress Do er, is an elder and senior, it is but right that the full ceremonies be observed in pay- ing the court’s obeisance on New Year's day to her Majesty. Yamens concerned take nof Horace Allen, Consul-General of the United States at Seoul, has Informed the State Department that the Korean Government on Ootober 1 last opened two ports to foreign trade. The first is Mokpo, In the southern part of the peninsula, and has a very rich agri- cultural back country. It is expected | to become an important port of export had his bodyguard fired upon by a | blue jackets, four | and also will be a valuable distribut- ing center for the richest part of Ko- rea. The second port i{s Chenampo, at the head of navigation on the Ta- Tong River, and will be the port of | entry for the northern capital, Peng- yang. This northern country is rich in minerals and is the center of the gold-mining Industry now being ex- ploited by an American syndicate. The opening of these ports has long been desired by business men. Japan has | already appointed Consuls to these ports. PERt 5, TN JAPAN'S FLEET SWALL, BUT IN 600D TRIM FOR INSTANT FIGHTING The navies of thfiarld are well rep- resented in Asiatic waters, there being, just prior to Germany’s taking posses- sion-of Kiao Cheu Bay im Chima, no-jess | sigit is | mored eruisers, than sixty-four forelgn war vessels on the eoasts of China and Japan. Of these twenty-elght were British, seven- teen Russlan, seven French, five United States, five German, one Austrian and one Portuguese. Many of the British and Huselan ships are, however, of very little use for fighting purposes, and the mrmored fleet of Russia in Chi- nese waters consists of only four ar- namely, Rurik, 10,023 tons, 6-inch belt, carrying four 8-inch, mixteen 6-inch and six 4.7-inch guns; Admiral Nackimoff, 7781 .tons, 10-<tnch belt, and carrying eight 8-inch and ten 6-inch guns; Dimitr! Donsky, 5883 tons, with 6-inch belt, and a battery of two 8-inch, four 6-tnch and ten 4.7-inch gune; the fourth being the Pamjat Agova of 6000 tons, 8-inch belt, and ar- | mament of two 8-inch and thirteen 6- inch guns. There are also two armored gunboats, the Qremiastchy and Ot- vazny, of 1500 tons, protected by B-inch armor and each carrying ome 9-inch | and one 8-inch gun. Of the remalning eleven vesgels only one cruiser, the Ad- miral Kornieloff, of 5000 tons and two 8-inch and fourteen 6-inch guns, is worthy of note, the other craft being either of antiquated design or too small | to be of any other use than coast ser- | vice. The armor-plercing power of the Russian fleet in Asiatic watersamounts | to only five 9-inch and twenty 8-inch | Buns incapable of penetrating armor over ten inches thick at 1000 yards, and of the veseels none have over 10-inch armor belt. Although the Russian navy | 18 numerically strong, many of the ships are from fifteen to thirty years old, while of Its sixteen battleships built, nine of the best are locked up in the Black sea. Thus only seven battle- ships are available at once for the voy- age from St. Petersburg to Vladivos- tok, a distance eof about 16,000 miles, and none of themn are in point of size and efficiency anywhere near theegquals of Japan’s latest battleships. Russia is very deficlent In cruisers and the volunteer fleet constitutes with the ar- mored vessels the naval strength of Russia, barring a few gunboats and t;:rpedo gunboats of modern construc- on. The fleet of Jupan, on the ather hand, is small but highly efficlent. Its two battleships, Fujl and Yashima, are the most formidable ships-of-war afloat, except the Majestic and Royal Sover- elgn class in the British navy. The Chin-Yuen Go and the Chiyoda, of 7400 tons and 2400 tons, constitute, with the two first named ships, the armored fleat of Japan, which, small in number, ,makes up in efiictency. Tt s in the | cruisers, however, that Japan far ex- | cels Russia, of which ft has eighteen | ranging from M00 to 4760 tons, swify | and powerfully armed vesseis. In the 3 event of trouble Japan would have the | | | | | advantage derived from fighting near at home, its armored vessels, invulner- able to the shot of any Russian gun, and with a fleet of fast cruisers and half a hundred torpedo boats capable of blockading Vladtvostok or any other port which Russia may choose as 2 naval station. To bring its vessels, war material, including coal, a distance of upwards of 16,000 miles'would be ex- ceedingly costly, time-killing and haz- ardous work, and to make matters worse the ships, which, after so ex- tended a voyage, would be in want of consjderable repairs, might find them- | gelves shut out from making port. It | would appear from this exposition of facts that In a naval war between Rus- | sla and Japan the latter would have a | dectded advantage, and that Russia | would be forced to come to an under- | standing with other Furopean naval | powers In order to offset the undisput- | able advantages of Japan. A combine- | tion with Germany would likely be met | by ome between Great ain and | Japan, but that, as Kiping would say, | s “another story to be told.” 4 | ———— WHITE CAPS BATTLE WITH AN INTERDED vieTIm, am:p-c»m?m Raving Per. mitted His Aged Father to Starve. OTTUMWA, Yowa, Dec. 29.—Whtte- caps have been at work In Lee County, near West Point, and as a result one man {8 dead and a warllke spirit has been aroused In the neighborhood. Abe Belm and his two brothers are. well- to-do farmers, Hving near West Point. Kot far away lived thelr father, in ab. Jeot poverty. When the old man dieq, a few days ago, it was clatmed he had starved to death. After the father was dead the soms refused to pay the ex- penses of his burial or even to see the body. This so enraged the neighboring farmers that last night a mob of about thirty citizens marched to the home of the Balm borthers and called for Abe, the eldest. Abe stepped to the door, and seeing the crowd outside retreat- ed into the house before the mob could lay hands on hi; He celled to ‘his brothers, and all three opened fire on the visitors from the door of the house, inside of which were Abe's wife and children. The mob returned the fire, and after the smoke had cleared away it was found that Abe had been mor- tally wounded. He died in a short time. ‘The brothers have sworn out war- rants against seven neighbors, charg- ing them with murder. Many of the farmers say they will not coun- tenance the arrest of their neighbors. It is unusual for a person’s eyes to be equally stmnf In only three cases out of ten does it happen that the eye- equally meod In each aye. HANNA GAINS SEVERAL VOTES Politicians Gather at Co- lumbus for the Sen- atorial Fight. Several Legislators Who Op- posed the Incumbent Are Now in His Ranks. Opposition Forces Will Test Their Strength on the Preliminary Organization. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. COLUMBUS, O., Dec. 20.—There was an influx of legislators to-night and the scenes about the hotel lobbies indi- cated that the senatorial election was the absorbing question. That the anti- Hanna Republicans, led by Charles Kurtz, will test the strength of their forces in the organization of the Leg- islature was indicated by the unoffictal announcement that Representative Mason of Cleveland would oppose Rep- resentative Boxwell of Warren County for speaker. Mason, accompanied by Representative Bramiey of Cleveland, both of whom are known to be un- friendly to Senator Hanna, opened headquarters at the Great Bouthern Hotel to-day and it was generally un- derstood that the anti-Hanna men would conduct their campaign from that place. It Is significant that the Democratic State headquarters are lo- cated in the same hotel. Allen O. Meyers is the apparent leader of the Democrats in the pro- posed fusion with the antj-Hanna Re- publicans. Meyers has given out that the Democratic members of the House will support Representative Mason for Speaker and C. H. Gerrish 4f Columbus, one of Kurtz's lleutenants, for clerk of the House in opposition to John R. Malloy. The anti-Hanna Republicans are to turn all the other offices of the House over to the Democrats in con- sideration of the election of the men chosen by Kurtz for speaker and clerk. A conference of Democratic mem- bers of the Legislature and party lead- ers is to be held here on Friday to discuss the proposed fusion with the anti-Hanna Republicans. Within the last few days strong opposition has arisen from certain Democrats to the proposed fusion, and it is now certain that all the Democratic members can- not be whipped into line. Several Democratic members who arrtved in the city to-night stated emphatically that they would not vote for any one except a Democrat for United States Senator. These members will serve their first term, and they say that if they voted for any Republican to de- feat Senator Hanna, they would not be returned. There was a conference of Republi- can leaders at Major Dick’s rooms in the Nell this afternoon and to-night, but #t was stated that they were mere- ly talking over the situation. Major Dick said ‘that Senator Hanna's re- election was assured. It was significant that Representa- ttve Snyder of Green County, who was formerly counted as an anti-Hanna man, was conspicuous at Major Dick’s headquarters and working in Senator Hanna’s interests. BSeveral Republi- can members, upon their arrival to- day, were claimed by Kurtz's licuten- ants as opposed to Senator Hanna, but, on being pressed, admitted they intended to vote for him. While Kurtz denies himself to all public Interviews, he at times asserts to his confidential friends that Senator Hanna will be de- feated. CHOPS HIS WIFE TO DEATH WITH A HATCHET. Horrible Crime Committed by a Negro In the Business District of Kansas KANSAS CITY, Mo.. Dec. 29.—Nellle Johnson, a young negress, was chopped to death with a hatchet in an aley near Tenth and Wyandotte in the business district of the city. er husband was the murderer. He called her from their house into the alley and attacked her with the hatchet. The woman threw up her hands to protect her head. When men who heard her cries ran to the scent they found her dying. Each of eight blows upon her head split the skull and her hands had been literally chopped to pieces. Near by stood a horse and an express wagon, in which there were ropes tied to a heavy stone. Tt had evidently been the intention of the murderer to throw his victim into the river, but the woman'’s outcry had prevented this be- ing done. Johnson is still at large. outside since the bark went to sea ten days ago, it is feared the boats and their occupants have been lost. The bark Tidal Wave was built at Port Madison twenty-eight years ago and has nearly always been engaged in the coast lumber trade. Her port iz at Tacoma, where she is owned.
