It liecomes pim'tiiit M the ilohate in the tioune prrruHms that the tt of stretiKth W tween the silver and anti-silver forces will he nhown on the suhHtitute for free colirnxo at the ratio 6f 10 to 1 iimtea'l of 20 to 1, which lias been the popular ImprciHiun suioiiK anti-silver tnen. The werk points in the scale of ratiu above it 1 have develoi ed gradually. Metisrs. Bland, Bymn and ot'ier veteran silver ilca are tolling their followers that an increase In the ratio would be a conces sion to the single gold standard, for it would be an adiniwtion that the future urns of money must depend upon its intrinsic value, instead of the stamp of government, and would tie suhjpet to cliangu just as the price of bullion fluctuates. The fri'e-silver leaders are counseling their followers lo mars their strength on a suhHtitute of 19 to I, and many of them will decline to vote for a higher ratio on the ground that it would be a degradation of the white metal as a monetary standard. The silver men admit now that the repeal vote will pass the house by a large majority because of the peculiar variety of free-coinage views, but they hoie tlia the senate will return the bill to the house with certain concessions to silver coinage. Th Folic; of China. Cleveland, Aug. -"2. A gentleman of this city lias just received from a friend in Tien Tein, China, a letter sta ting that United States Consul Bowman, who left the city a short time ago for the United States, carried with him a message from Viceroy Li Hung Chang to President Cleveland, in which the viceroy states that he appreciates the good intentions of the president and secretary of state, and thanks them for their effort to secure the kind and just treatment of the Chinese residing in the United Mutes, lie feels keenly the unfriendly nature and injustice of the Geary law, but China will lake no action thereon until the next sension of the United States congress, in the hope that the Geary law will be modified or repealed. If the next congress decides to enforce the law, China will at once retaliate; friendly relations between tbe two countries will be broken off, and laws w ill be enacted looking toward the expulfion of all Americans from China. Meantime Instructions have been issued to all Chinese officials to take especial caro '.o protect all American citizens living in China from violence. Two Dsyi From St. Paul. Portland, Aug, 20. John W. Hen drick, general manager of the Northern Pacific, who arrived here at 10 o'clock yesterday forenoon from St. Paul on a special train, with the papers filed in the matter of the appointment of the re ceiver for the Northern Pacific, made a mont extraordinary run, which eclipses anything of the kind ever attempted in this region. He mado the trip from St. Paul to Portland, lOoti miles, in 43 hours running time, or 62 hours including stop pages, to leave papers at Tacoma and other places. This makes the rate of running over 50 miles per hour for the whole trip a rale of traveling seldom equaled in such a run. This is equal to the time made by the exposition flyer over the New York Central and Lake Shore lines, for a 20 hours' run, which was heralded at the time as one of the most wonderful feats of railroading. Mr. Kendriek remained here only long enough to attend to his business and left here at 11 o'clock Suit Again.t VUlard for $10,000,000 PitiLADKi.eitiA, Aug. 17. John Swope, of Philadelphia, a stockholder of the Northern Pacific has brought suit against Henry Villard, Edwin H. Abbott, Charles T. Colby and Colgate Hoyt on the general charge of malfeasance in ollico and mismanagement of the affairs of the company in their capacity of directors thereof. It is alleged that they bought for the Northern Pacific properties in which they wero person ally interested, In this manner they profited largely as individuals, whereas the road lost heavily. Ten million dollars is the sum named as the amount of profits of these four directors. The Drop Situation. Nkw Yokk, Aug. 20. The American Agriculturist's annual review of the crop situation says the harvest of 1893 in the United States in many respects is similar to three years ago, with every prospect that the home consumption and increased foreign demand will so advance values as to yield as large net returns to farmers as tho avorage recent years. Indeed, the review makes distinctly encouraging exhibit, In spite of the prevalent drouth, though admitting the financial stringency may interfere with the early movement of the crops and have a temporary res trictive influence on prices. The Agri culturist notes an Increased domestic crop of sugar, but there is a shortage In the world' production of 300,000 long tons of sugar. Prices are more likely to be affected by changes in legislation than by changes in production. Hops will make a lair average yield in the United Ktates, but only s half to two-thirds of a full crop in Germany and a light yield in England. The export demand will take at good price every bale of Ameri can hops that can be spared. j Holitca th. Black Flag. Newark, N. J., Aug. 21. The unem ployed workingmen held a large parade today. At the head of the line marched a man with a large black flag, upon which in white letter wero the words, ''Signs of the Times I am Starving Be cause He I Fat." Beneath was a pic ture of a large well-fed man with a high hat, and a starving workman beside him. Another black flag with an inscription of a similar purport, was carried in the center of the line. At the city hall Mayor Haynes, who was on the steps, ordered the black flag taken down, ad diog: "No one can march through these streets unless the stars and stripes are carried." The flags were then kept out of sight for a while, but hoisted after the center of the city was passed. A meet ing later wax addressed by Emma Gold man, the anarchist from New York, who made a characteristic address. None of the men in the proceesion presented any appearance of starvation. The Bilrer 8uti. The New York Herald makes this showing: The 58,tX J.l'OO ounces o( silver produced in thiscountry last year was vir tually all taken from four states and three territories, having an aggregate popula tion, as shown by the last census, of only 1,000,000 people.

Agtli tha Tide Hal Turned. New York, Aug. 21. The bank pres idents said today there was a very de cided improvement in the situation. The large imports of gold were having, and must have, a very favorable effect ; but notwithstanding tbe enormia amount of gold that had been received, and tbe prospect of still further large amounts being received, currency still commands a high premium, and as much as 2 '4 per cent was demanded for it today. Brokers said they were paying this morning to 2.4 per cent for it, and the supplv was not very large. Willing to Wait for Wtgei. Tkrrk Haltk, Ind., Aug. 20. The employes of the Terre Haute car works, numbering nearly 1000, most of whom are in destitute circumstances owing to the hick of work here, at a mass meeting today tendered their services to tbe company in clearing away tbe wreckage of burned works and rebuilding the im mense plant, offering to wait a year for their wages. The company announces thut it can't rebuild just now, but will do so as soon as money is easier, and thanks the employes for their good will. Will Not Wade in Blood. Chatapqua, N. , Aug. 18. At the grange today Governor Waite, of Colo rado, was chief speaker, addressing him self to the silver question and closing : "We of the West don't intend to wade in blood or anything of tbe kind, but let this oppression of the East continue and then let any candidate of your old par ties go before the people in 1806 on the platform of protection, when the West has no protection, and he will not re ceive an electoral vote west of Ohio or south of the Totomac. Winlock Qeti Boorohed. Winlock, Wash.. Aug. 22. The fire which destroyed the business portion of Winlock this morning caught in the reception saloon and burned both ways, wiping out everything. Flamei Visit Fairfield. Fairfikld, Wash. Aug. 22. Nearly a dozen principal business houses were burned early this morning. There was only a bucket brigade to fight the flames, which soon got beyond control. The total loss is about $12,000. Blank note, receipt and order books at the Enterprise office. HE HAS CONFESSED. John Keller, the Astoria Mur derer Ureaks Down. HTERESTISO SEWS OP THE ST1TE Wark to Begin on Reform School and Asylum overor Pennoyer Faror Commercial Division. A stoma, Aug. 23 John R. Reiter was arraigned today before Judge Cleve land, charged with the murder of Victor Snellman. Though he speak English fluently enough, he demanded a German interpreter. He was asked if he was reaily to stand preliminary trial Satur day, and replied by saying that be was in Portland the 4th innt., that he bad murdered nobody and that be wanted some witnesses. A good deal of com ment was caused in court by the man's mild and insipid appearance. He looks like a meek, inoffensive farm band without a trace of brutality on bis coun tenance. Reiter tonight made a confession to Sheriff Smith, in the presence of wit nesses who signed the document after the murderer bad affixed his own signa ture. While not a direct statement that he mnrdered Snellman, he makes' bim- self an accessory and attempts to throw i the act on an imaginary shipmate, whose name he doe not know. j feanojer Faron Stoeuioa. I New Yobk, Aug 22 The World will I print tomorrow opinions from a number j of Western governors upon the proposi- tion of commercial division of tbe United States. The World telegraphed each of ' the governors of tbe Western states these questions: First What do yon think of the peti tion of the Kansas officials for commer cial division between the East and tha West? Second What would be the result of the proposed convention ol governors to consider this? Governors Stone of Missouri, Lewell ing of Kansas and Pennoyer of Oregon, boldly favor thecoovention. The others beard from oppose it. Governor Mc Graw of Washington says any man who proposes the secession of states is as much a traitor today as in 1861. Gov ernor Nelson of Minnesota expresses the same sentiment. Governor Boise of Iowa says it is unwise and does not think any considerable number of the governors would attend such a conven tion. Work en But Building. Salem, Or., Aug. 21. It has been' in formally decided to go ahead with the asylum and reform school additions, though not so fast as first intended. The bid of J. A. Hazel, $40,098, for the additions to the reform school, and of I'. C. Liebe, $21, 344, for the two cottages and tbe congregated dining-hall at asy lum, will be accepted and work will pro ceed at once. The season is so far ad vanced now that it is deemed pest only to gather brick and lumber on the ground at the reform school this year and be ready to begin construction work early in tbe spring. The lumber will be sea soned and there will be dry weather to finish the buildings, which will be a ma terial advantage. At the asylum frames will be erected and sheathed this fall and the rest of tbe work will be left till spring. In Fim of tho United Statet. Portland, Or., Aug. 22. It the case of tbe United States against the Oregon & California and Oregon Central rail roads for forfeiture of certain lands in Washington county amounting to several thousand acres, Judge Bellinger, this morning, decided in favor of the United States. He held that the Oregon Cen tral road, while a part of the Oregon & California system, was a separate corpo ration for the purpose of building a road from Portland to Astoria ; that the road was never built, and as a matter of course the company forfeited the land subsidy given by the Government. Ho Bpeoial Sesilon. Salem, Or., Aug.22. In response to his inquiry, Governor Pennoyer has re ceived letters from nearly all the mem bers of the legislature, and as a majority oppose calling a special session for the purpose of passing a "stay law" the gov enor will probably not call the special session. Asked today as to the probab ility of such a call being issued, the gov enor said there would likely be none. He intimated in even stronger language that no call would be issued. Will Hold tho Btate Fair. Salem, Or., Aug 23. The state board of agriculture held a meeting here today and were unanimous in favor of going ahead with tbe state fair this year. It was guaranteed that the $6000 state war rant, from which awards are to be paid, will be cashed. The Salem band was engaged to furnish music for $"C3.
