In Be 'resent at the InvestlgMtlun, Washington, Augiiat 27.--Nolthur the atuto uor unvy dtipnrtuiont Iihh re (tuivod any iiifi.iiiiiitiun ooiiflrmiitory of the utnvHimper roporta that Chineae ofliuiula huvo yielded and are now per mitting foreiKiiura to be present at the lureatigiitiou iuto the iittucks ou the rtiirMiomiriea, The report, however, ia credited here by those aoqnMiuted with the ooudition of Hffnira in China and who have felt nil along that the im periitl government would gee the justice of permitting foreign representatives on the commission. It is felt here that the affairs of AmericauH in China, while iu charge of Minister Denby and Admiral Carpenter, are in responsible hands and tlint they will see that ade quate measures of protection are afford ed to the extent of their ability. M, W. Rausoin, of North Carolina, will be appointed United Stateg min ister to Mexico, aud the president will thus rectify the blunder in the ilrsf. appointment of Hansom while he was still a member of the senate. Whether Mr. Ransom will return to Mexico or not will depend entirely upon his own wishes. His experience with the oli- inate of Mexioo last spring wax not such as to greatly encourage him to re turn. Mr. Ransom was not well when he went there, however, and his physi cian thinks the unfavorable effect of tbe climate was largely due to his physical ooudition, and would not have been serious if he had beeu well when he left the United States. Since his return to this country, he has recover ed his health. A dooumaut reoevied at the state de partment from Minister Sill, at Seoul, encloses four new postage stamps, the first issued by Corean for domestic pur poses. The stamps are bright in color and carry, besides their English letter ing, giving the denomination, several Corean characters, which presumably convey the same information to the na tives. They carry no figures or pecu liar signs. The stamps are manufac tured in Washington for the Corean government. They range in value from 1 oent to 10 cents, or 50 poens. Mr. Sill says that the postal bureau is to be conducted in connection with the telegraphic bureau aud the department of publio works. A general test and competition be tween machine guns has been set to be gin Monday, September 16, at Indian Head. It is expected six machine guus WllFentor tbia eaatmir4ktm .being Atu. tomatio and three not bo. The auto matic guns are the Colt, the Maxim- Nordenfelt, and the Hotohkiss. Tbe others are the Oatling, the Acoles and the Pratt, and Whitney. It is expected this test will continue for two weeks. The navy department was today in formed of the arrival of the cruiser Marblehead, of Admiral Kirklaud'g European squadron, at Algiers. The admiral has discretionary orders to go to Turkey to look out for the protection of American interests arising in con nection with the trouble at Tarsus, but in view of the satisfactory adjustment of affairs at that place, be may not find it necessary to make tbe jouruey. Commodore Tyron, chief of the med ical bureau of the navy department, has prepared and Secretary Herbert has approved an order making regula tions for the care of the wounded in naval engagements. The new order is to obviate the difficulty of transferring wounded men from the deck to the surgeons' room. MARION COUNTY'S ASSESSMENT The Hoard of Fquullsatinn to Begin Its Annual Task. Salem, Or., August 27. The county board of equalization will begin its an nual task of adjusting taxation tomor row. Assessor Coffey has not yet fixed the assessment of the Southern Paoific railroad. It is impossible, he claims, to secure the co-operation of the other assessors to determine upon a uniform rate on tbe road throughout the state. Mr. Coffey thinks a mile iu Jackson county should be assessed the same as a mile in Multnomah county. Two years ago he fixed the rate in this coun ty at $5,000 per mile, which was high er than in any other county, and the state board of equalization lowered it. County Judge Hubbard will favor es tablishing Mr. Coffey's figures of two years ago. Correspondence received by Judge Hubbard indicates that some county officials do not understand the apparent low rate of assessment placed on this road in Oregon, as compared with Cal ifornia. The rate fixed by California is over $13,000 per mile, but that in cludes the steamship lines, depots, real estate and all property. Oregon as sesses all properties separately, so that there is very little, if any, favor shown the road in this state. Freight Rates Advanced. Tacoroa, August 27. Class freight rates from coast terminals to Spokane aud other interior point in Eastern Washington and Oregon, Idaho and Western Montana, and from St. Paul and common point to the same points, will be considerably increased by new tariffs, which become effective Sep tember 20. This results from a read justment of ratea, the object of which is to equalize the revenues of the four companies effected the Northern Pa cific, Hreat Northern, Oregon Railway A Navigation and Union Pacific. So far as class ratea from Western termi nals to Spokane are concerned, the re. adjustment will practicality be a res tor ation of the ratea in effect prior to April 10 last There will be s corre- hull and Crane; mile run, Morgan and spending raise in ratea from Eastern Wadhama; all hurdle races, Cady, b-nninala to Spokane and that terri- Hatch and Perkins; high jump, Shel tory.

The publio prosecutor made a great speech, which was immediately circulated iu printed form all over the city. He denounced dueling aa a erlino, and demanded the punishment of everybody concerned, and declared his conviction that Romero and his seconds laid a deliberate trap for Ver- astyxul. He ooutondud that (leneral Rooha should lie punished for having furnished the pistols. ' The whole thing, he said, was a premeditated murder of Verastegni. His grave was practically dug before he went to tlio Spanish oometery to exchange shots with Romero. The oivil prosecuting attorney followed iu a speech, strongly denouncing Romoro, causing an up roar in the court Lawyers for the de fense followed, Romero's attorney de fining his record ua a military man who resented insulting language. Judge De la Hoz occupied two hours in delivering the oharge to the jury, finishing at 1 o'clock this morning . The jury retired bringing in a verdict at 8 o'clock. The hall of the court was crowded aud a swarm of reporters were present. The jury brought ia a verdict of guilty iu the case of Colonel Romero, and by a majority absolved Goneral Rooha and the four seconds, Prida, Castillo, Burretto and Carrel lo. The publio proseoutor asked for a pen alty of five years for Romero. The judge sentenced Romero to three years aud six months at hard labor in the municipal prison, with liberty to choose the trado he preferred. He was also sentenced to pay a fine of $1,800 or serve 100 days additional. Fur thermore, be was admonished that if he ever committed a similiar offense the severest penalty of the criminal code would be applied to him. The judge theu sentenced him to pay to the family of Verustegui for eighteeu years the sum of $4,500 yearly and also pay the cost of Verastegui'a funeral and all oosts of the case. Tbe severity of the sentence was considered almost extreme, but publio opinion justifies it. Dr. Preciado was absolved by the jury. Judge de la Hoz theu gave uotice that the verdict absolving all prisoners, excepting Romero, was, iu his opinion, contrary to the law and the evidence, and be therefore would send the onse to the upper court for its decision, which if unfavorable to the prisoners, will result in severe sen tences for all. The sentence of Romoro establishes a precedent that men killing antagonists in duels will have to maintain the fam ily of their victim or remain in prison perpetually. RAILWAY UNION TROUBLES. Still rrotemting Against the Inscription on the Holdlers Graves, San Francisco, August 27. The American Railway Union ia having a wulramay' yrithOMxh,y oommandant at the Presidio, and in teresting developments are likely to eusue. During the great strike at Sacramento last summer, United States troops in command of General Graham were ordered to the scene to preserve order. The first train run out of Sao ritmeuto under military guard was wrecked and four soldiers were killed. A number of ' the Ameiioan Railway Union leaders were tried for the mur der, but were acquitted. The dead soldiers were buried ou the Presidio reservation, and their comrades erected a monumeut on which stands the in scription: "Murdered by strikers. " The union objects to this, contending the strikers did not murder the sol diers, and that General Graham had no right to put such an inscription on the monument No attention was paid to the protest of the strikers by General Graham, and at a recent mass meeting resolutions were adopted requesting him to remove the inscription. Gen eral Gbraham has replied to the reso lutions in rather tart terms. He re fers to the action of the citizens who adopted them as treasonable; says he was at Saoramento when the soldiers were killed: tliat iu bis judgment they were killed by strikers, and that the inscription shall stand. The mem bers of the anion say they will appeal to the secretary of war. A CHINESE VERSION. What (lave Ttlne to the' Itlota Karly In June. Chicago, August 27. Sam Moy, a Chiuese merchant, has received a copy of a Chinese newspaper published at FooChow, whioh gives four columns of space to the attacks upon the English and American missionaries in June. The paper ia interesting, because it contains the Chinese version of the affair. A free translation of the prin cipal points of the Chinese review of the riots shows the attaok on the mis sion houses arose, firstly, from motives of mere robbery, caused by the building of houses with basements, and, second ly, by the revelation of the oorrupt practices of some of the hangers-on of the mission station. According to this paper, the missionaries bad built houses with basements,, something un usual iu China. This peculiarity ex cited their curiosity. There is a large camp of bandits near Ku Cheng, com posed of wild tribes aud fugitives from justice from the civilized parts of Fo Kien. These bandits heard of the pe culiar construction of the mission houses, and conceiving that the base ments were intended to store treasure, the banditti planned and executed the first raid for the purpose of robbery. Candidates for Vale's Team. New York, August 27.

I RKSP0.NSK KXl'ECTKD SHORTLY i The Commander of the Caalln Was Advised Motto Keengnlse the French I'rotentorate, Washington, August 20. Officials of the statu department were gratified today to leuru thut Ambassador Eustis had made a move iu the matter of Waller, and had carried out a portion of the iustructioua which have beeu sent hi in. The department has felt that ita efforts ia this case have uot been as ably seconded at Paris as they might have been, and Ambassador Eustis explains iu his dispatch that the deluy has been due to the absence of the minister of foreign affairs. The department believes that in a few days the French government will make some response to the roquest made for the papers iu the Waller case. It is reoog. uized at the department that the French government is not only slow, but tbut the French people are inclined to be nettled at the course pursued by the Americans, as shown iu the resent ment felt because the commander of the Castiue bud fuiled to salute the French at Tamative. It ia thought much may be made of this incident by the French to still further delay the settlement of the Waller case, but it is probable that the United States author ities will not allow the two things to he coupled, but will insist that the Waller case must be considered solely ou its mortis. Tbe United States has recognized the French protectorate over Madagas car,' nor has it refused recognition. Consul Waller who is at Tamutive, is only acting oousul in one sense, as the United States has never applied for nor received any exequatur from bim. In advising the commander of the Castine not to reooguize or salute the Frenoh, the department presumes that Mr. Waller bus taken the right course, and knows what he is about, and will act on that assumption until something to tbe contrary is learned. Tbe effect this position of the consul aud com mander of tbe Castine may have on the Waller olaim is altogether speculative. If French control ia not recognized in the island, aud, in fact, should be de nied by the United States government, it would define clearly the issue and make the olaim of Waller indisputable from an American point of view, but it is said that such a position by the United States is uot necessary to tbe establishment of the Waller claim if Waller receives his concession from a de f aoto government ' Dueling ffnihlblted In Mexico. City of Mexioo, August 20. A seo- of peuaoodt) wlkvting to duel HiiK provides that when any person is wounded or killed in a duel the condi tions of whioh are favorable to one of the combatants, the challenging party shall be punished by ten years' impris onment, and the reoipieut of the chal lenge six years. The challenger's sec onds are, in such cases, subject to the same punishment as the principals, and it is urged here that this law will ap ply iu the Romero-Verastegui case now ou trial if it is proved thut the latter was the challenging party and tbe duel was unfair. The seconds in this case expect to escape with sentences of nine months' imprisonment to be commuted at a shilling a day. Iloycottiug of Hank Motes. Minneapolis, August 26. H. B. Martin, of the executive board of the Knights of Labor, who has just re turned from the East, declared the Knights are in earnest us to the boy- oott of the national bank notes urged by Grand Master Workman Sovereign, and that the boyoott will be put iuto effect after Labor day, September 2. After that date,': says he "all Knights, their friends, Populists aud money reformers generally, are re quested to refuse to take bank notes for any obligation due them. We expect active support from tbe silver men, who reooguize in the banks the bitter est enemies to silver. Many labor or ganizations have abeady given notice to their employers that tbey desire to be paid off iu legal tender money and not in bank notes. " Affairs In Colombia). New York, August 26. A special to a local paper from Panama says: Gov ernor Arango has received a dispatch from Guyaquil persuading him that there is no reason for fear; that the government of Eloy Alfaro has not the slightest inclination to interefere, di rectly or indireotly, with the political affairs of Colombia. This only con firms the general opinion that all the precautions aud military measures and diplomatic wariness taken by the Bo gota government which went to the extent of purchasing another gunboat, were absurd and unjustifiable. Gen eral Casablanca intends to go soon to Boca del Toro on a visit of inspection. The World's Wheat Crop. Buda Pestb, August 26. The minis ter of agriculture announces as a result of data obtained from consuls and spe cialists that the world's wheat crop for 1805 is as follows: The total productions in oountries which import wheat is estimated at 749,022,000 bushels.

He was aoooinpanied by Frederick Smith, secretary of the Loudon Labor Federa tion, aud was welcomed by a delegation from the Central Labor Ferderation of New York. In a speech to the delega tion, Mr. Haraie said: 'A socialist through aud through; that ia what I am.

As his con dition became more serious the old man's desire to live became more in tense, aud he offered his physiolans $225 for every day they should keep him alive. A tube was inserted in his stomach through whiuh nourishment was forced, and by this means be was kept alive forty days, incurring a doctor's bill iu the meantime of $9,000.

Aooord iug to the American Riilway Union members and their friends C. P. Hunt ington is still liable to arrest and will be arrested should he come to this oity. It is contended that the charge against the Southern Paoific Company was dismissed at tbe instuuoe of United States District Attorney Foote aud was not done by the United States district judge. Hence it is held that Hunt ington could be arrested under sootion 1014 of the revised statutes by any mayor, justice of the supremo court or justice of the peace. It is said that Huntington wants to come to San Francisco to select a suoceessor to Gen eral Manager Towne. . Chinese I onveiia Butchered. London, August 26.

Absolutely nothing has been left uu done to make the evidence against the accused conclusive. Charles L. Hede mark aud his wife have beeu visited again by the prosecutors. They re peated the remarkable story they re. la ted soon after Durraut's arrest This story, so little thought of at the time, has gained significant interest in the last few days, particularly in relation to an important statement made by tbe polioe. Captain Lees and associates have said that tbey will show beyond the power of contradiction tbe move. roeuta of Durrant during every hour of tbe day on which Blanche Lamont dis appeared. It is believed that they have a wit ness who saw Durrant near the oburoh between 6 and 7 o'clock on the even ing of April 8. The dramatio story told by Hedemark and bis wife tells what followed. In the shadow of the church they saw a man moving from plaoe to plaoe. As the darkness of night deepened they saw him iu the galleries of the deserted plaoe, guided in bis terrible work by tbe light of a caudle. At first the moving light be hind the great church window made them think the church was on fire, but closer watching quieted their fears, and they conoulded that some one was repairing tbe sanctuary. They had no suspicion that they were watching the last .grewsome detail of a horrible orime. ". The man whose shadow they saw was hiding the deadly record of his crime. He was busy among the raf ters of the steeple, gazing now aud again down upon the body of the girl whose life he had taken. Subsequent events gave an intense interest to the part whioh Hedemark and his wife played. That is one reason why . they have again told their story to the prosecu tion. Every detail was repeated. It was shortly before 7 o'clock that Mrs. Hedemark called her husband's atten tion to tLe'irgbrTn 'tliy ubuiuli 'wkr- dow. She is able now to recall the incident for several reasons. April 8 was her sister's birthday, and Mrs, Hedemark had paid her a visit on that day. She had returned to her home somewhat late, and was sitting with her husband in the dining room when her attention was drawn to Emanuel church. The Hedemarks live directly opposite the Emanuel church. Be tween their home and the Bartlett street ohuroh there is no obstruction. Mrs. Hedemark saw the moving light in tbe church at dusk. She thought it strange, and watching it for a mo ment, oalled her husband to the win dow. Together they traced the shad ows on the church windows. The man was in the gallery of the oburoh. Now and again he would stop and the light would flicker. He moved slowly from that part of the gallery into whioh tbe door opened toward the belfry. When he had made slowly the jouruey ending at the foot of the tower, tbe light dis appeared. Mrs. Hedemark waited a few moments and then left the win dow. She and ber husband had watched the shadow of a murderer, but tbey thought they looked at the refleo tion of some workman in the silent church. Whether or uot Hedemark and bis wife will be summoned by the prosecu tion remains to be seen. While their testimony possesses a singularly dra matio interest, it tells nothing of tbe idnetity of the murderer. Whatever other wituesss might tell Hedemark could say nothing on that score. They did not even see tbe light in the belfry. Judge Murphy announced at com mencement of morning session that he would not be able to try Diok McDon aid again for perjury in connection with tbe Paoifio bank failure. After tbe Durrant oase is disposed of, Judge Murphy will take a vacation, so Dick will have to be tried in some other court The Campania's Near Ileeord. New York, August 20.
