No de i fenrifl waa made. Ilecemher 17, cout reported to I.ieulenant-fieneral Katcura, j then near l.aio Y'ang, that a large force ! of ChineaH had la-en een movinif in the direction of l.aio Yang. Thia force ; proved to le the di-fcated garriaon of i Ilai Chang, under the commaml of (ien era! LmiK The Chineae had fled with all poHHihle aiieed ever since the 13lh, , when their ponition waa captured hv the i enemy. They were then in a rather de moialiZ'd condition, and were making lor Moiikden. Kalaura decided to inter cept them. Ilelelt camp the night of lHth willi liia whole force, and the next j morning overtook the Chinese at the ! village of Kung Wawii, where they made j an obftinate aland, although in poor con dition. They were nearly 10,000 gfroiiu j any were able lo force aome aevere fight I ing tion the Japaneae. In the inidat of i the battle, Oahima'a brigade from Ilai i Chang, came up and give Katmira active aupporl. The Chinese held out with iur primug bravery. They faced the well directed fire from five Jawineae batteries and fought denperately, although without effective urganizutinn The Japaneae J infantry charged ti e through the acat jlered linea. but the enemy rallied. Three bayonet chaws eventually won the day for Katatira, after five hours of the hot test fighting yet ex'rienced by the sec ond army. The Chinese (altered as the third advance began, and lliev fled in disorder towards Y'ing Kow. The losses are not known, but the Chinese are re potted to have left 500 men on the field.

JAPASKSg PEACK TALK. Washington, Dec 24 Recent ntwspa pers and mail advices received here from Japan show that the question of the terms of peace that Japan will de mand of China is a fruitful subject of conversation anions the natives. Opin ions, however, differ regarding these terms, and while some journals con demn, thev are more specific, in their demand than usual. One paper asserts that Formosa., so important from a com mercial and military point of view, must at all events be taken. After detailing what an immense expenditure must be incurred by Japan in supporting Cores Bd protecting Japanese interests in the north of China, the tmper de. la.es that Formosa w ill have to be annexed as a j rwolrHe (mm which to draw leceipts, at least equal to the prospective expen- ditures. Another paper enters a strong protest against the claims advanced that China must surrender territory entirely out of proportion to the objects for which tho war waa undertaken. Assuming that the war is practically over, the Jap anese are already discussing Japan's prospects thereafter. Mr. Kanekow, the vice-minister of state tot agricul ture and commerce, has been looking into the history of the United States alter the itreat civil war, and to Germany after the Franco-Prussian for light on the subject, and the Noshomusho has been holding consultation about the matter for some time, but the investigations are far from concluded. Various ministers are personally of the opinion that the extension of facilities for direct exporta tion is of the greatest importance. The QoTemments Sold. New York, Pec. 22. Subtreasury of ficials say an effort is being made in New York to juggle the government's gold. Exporters are very anxious to get hold of full weiaht coins and gold bars and bricks with the government's stamp of fineness on them. Uncle Sam has $40,000,000 worth of these, but in order to cut down exports, some time ago the department made a rule to redeem treasury notes only in gold coin . The light-weivht coins complained of are all within the legal limit, one-half of 1 per cent, but the shippers have felt the loss and have sorted the coins, keeping the liirht-weiirht ones at home. The banks otiji-ctwl to tukiiiK tln-m, an'l one foreign iioiihc took ft lot to the Huhtreannry an'l ankcil that they he redeemed in paiier. Thin the treaxury oflicitt! derlined to do, nayinK the r)'li;emini of paier proiiiineii V pay did not carry with it the reveme duty in redeeming gold in paper. The only thinK left to do wan to deponit the Kold in the bank, w hence it would work itH way f'a'k to the ouhtreaHiiry. The awiay office had received a novel proK Hition from an exporting hoiiHe. It. wanted to dei)oit American gold coin and have it melted into Htaniped ham. The propoaition waft declined, though if the coin waa light or mutilaled it could redeemed. Bryan TJUcnciei FUaaca- Wasiiinoton, Dec. 22. When the cur rency bill debate waa reaumed in the house today, Cooinba opened for the bill and Hell followed in opposition. The latter thought that currency reform waa to become a fad. He noticed that its practical dictation wag toward contrac tion. A witness before the committee, lie said, had been frank enough to con fess that the repeal of the purchase clause of the Sherman act waa only the "first step." It w aa now proposed to retire the entire greenback circulation. Bow ers of California and Bryan of Nebraska also opposed the bill. The latter attacked the adminr-tration viciously for dump inif into the committee on banking and currency of the house a nastily considered bill like the one pending. Iu weakness waa demonstrated w hen, after four days' of verbal bombardment, it bad been practically withdrawn and another measure substituted. Bryan said that, stripped of its verbiage, the bill was a simple proposition to authorize the gov ernment to loan banks money at a low ! rate of interest, or at no rate, to be in turn loaned by them at whatever rate thev could secure. Bryan directed at- tention to th. contradictor- views of Cleveland and Jefferson, the last and first Hemn.-r.tie nreaidenta. on .his anhiect. and said: "Mr. Cleveland thinks that the issue of currency is a function of the banks. Jefferson declared such an issue is a function of the government, even though the banks should go out of the issuing business. I am not ashamed to say that I stand by Thomas Jefferson and not by Grover Cleveland." Bryan said he had been, and was now, in favor of gold and silver money, be cause the amount of money would de pend on the law of supply and demand. At the close ol Bryan's speech, which lasted two hours, the house, at 5:10 P. M., adjourned until January 3, 18'J5. Aontnally BtarTing. Niobrara, Neb., Dec. 24 The suffer ing among tne inhabitants of the drought blighted pait of Nebraska, including three-fourths of the residents of five counties, is becoming more intense daily, and immediate steps alone can prevent many deaihs from starvation. Three years ago the farmers of this drought blighted counties raised a very light crop, and the past two years the crops have been almost total failures. Many families have not enough provisions in their homes for one week's subsistence and no money to purchase the necessites of life. The sufferers cannot obtain employment and unless they receive aid very soon, it is the general opinion that many w ill starve to death, and should the weather turn very cold many will fre,'Zf) 10 death' 8 11 18 8 ,aet tl,at mH"y urB u Kmr'l!UI"" ent clothing to cover their nakedness. A mother and her two babes were found dead in their cabin this week. It is supposed the mother had been confined to her bed by sickness ami that she and her two little ones starved to death. The stomachs of the children were opened and not a trace of lood could be discovered. Orderi for a Submarine' Boat. Washington, Dec. 22. Secretary Herbert gave orders for the preparation of a contract with the Holland Submar ine Boat Company for tlw construction of a submarine boat, to cost 150,000. The bureau of construction and steam engineering, which has carefully ex amined the matter, reported that the plans were feasible; that there waa no danger to the crew of the boat, and that the thickness of the boat should be one-half inch at the middle belt, taper ing to three-eighths of an inch at the ends. The Oregon'i Armor Plate. Washington, Dec. 22. Andrew Car negie called at the navy department to day and had an interview with Secre tary Herbert. His purpose was to learn just what the department requires with respect to the lot of armor-plate intended for the forward barbette of the battle ship Oregon, the test plate of which had been recommended for rejection as the result of the unsuccessful trial at Indian Head, a week ago. The secretary, how ever, last evening decided to accept the entire lot of plates. His reason fordo ing so was that the cracking of the plates in the test was caused by the use of a projectile much superior to the ordinary service shot; that the Carnegie oone pany was entitled to the same conces sions made to the Bethlehem Company in the case of their 18 inch plates. Iifan Locali. Logan, Dec. 24. The population of Logan was decreaaed last Wednesday when two of its young people became one. We bartily wish Mr. and Mrs. Martin Johnston a prosperous voyage on the matrimonial sea. The Logan Sunday school elected Frank Hutchins, superintendent; Ma tilda Reed, assistant superintendent; Mrs. Andrew Johnston, secretary and Mr. Humiston, treasurer. An effort was made to introdmce lesson helps but was so opiosed by tlie minority that it was abandoned. The Hun day school was presented with Driimmond's "Great est Thing in the World." A committer on library was appointed some weektt ago, hut has accomplished nothing yet. Mr. M. W. Baker has moved his fam ily from the Clark place to his own, which he bonght from Mr. Louis Kerchem. Mr. Humiston has built some fence and otherwise improved his place. Miss Alice Swales returned Saturday from Eastern Oregon. Miss Hettie Newkirk is home from Salem. Her sister's family are also here for the holidays. Mr. Charley Wilson is home visiting. Strangers, pilgrims and even the stay-at-home, and all gathered at the Christ mas tree at the Orange ball. The pro gramme was opened by a Christmas anthem : then came a timely address by Miss Matilda Reed, then another son? and, little Neita Gerber introduced Santa Clause who performed the most ! intensely interesting feature of the eve- I "' "'""K luc j n,,nber of ,,ith 8 equalled only by j t,,e crowd P""' 10 receive them; ; fn,a ClaU8' 1 e' Funk- "" that ,,ie lll of D0 had delayed him. and he must hasten on to California. Then Christmas fairies with brooms for wands and other instruments of magic, chgnged the scene and the musical laugh ter of childhood gave way to the rhythm of the dance in the crowded ball. One of the most interesting figures on the floor was the bride, formerly Miss Belle Uowan who waa married in Ore gon City, Dec. 24 to Mr. Frank Wilson. All wished in their hearts that tho young couple might have no discords in the music of their lives. Christmas eve beeame Christmas morning ere the dancers with wishes of Merry Christmas sought their homes. Pkabl. Are You Interested in Electricltr! At last we are to have an electrical magazine. The science of electricity has developed so rapidly that the publishers of Electric Power have decided to change their journal into the form of a monthly magazine after January 1st, 1895. This is an important move and will give the public the opportunity of keeping abreast of the times in matters electrical. Thev have already secured for the coining year a number of the best known writers in electrical literature and propose to be in the tront rank on all points connected with electricity. There are numerous traue paper, and journals devoted to electricity , but as yet no one has bad the courage to publish a magazine de voted to that science, and Electric Power will have the field to itself, and undoubt edly is making a wise move. The sub scription price will remain the same, $2 00 per year, 20 cents per copy. The November issue is devoted to the papers, reports and general news of the Street Railway Convention in Atlanta, and contains quite a number of excellent portraits. Mr. Ira P. Wetmore, a prominent real estate agent of San Angelo, Texas, has used Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Kemedy in his family for several years as occasion required, and always with perfect success. He says: "I find it a perfect cure for our baby when troubled with colic or dysentery. I now feel that my outfft is not complete without a bottle of this Remedy at home or on a trip away from home.
