Its purport will not be made public for the present. It dot eloped today that Mr. Conger, in compliance with a suggestion from Secretary Hay, had submitted to the state department a list of 10 or 13 names of Chinese officials who woro prominent in the Boxer movoment sglnst the foreigners nnd in a great measure were reHpuusible for the as. saulta 'upon tho legations in Pekiu.

Accompany ing tho report of Major-General Brooke, commander fit the department of the oast, to the war department, was a re port by Major Story, Seventh artillery inspector. Major Story statos that the personnel of tho artillery is mani festly inadequate to serve the arma ment already mounted, and ho believes thoro is such genera) recognition of this fact that thero will be an inorouso ia artillery forces at the coming sossion of congress. "It should be remarked in this con nection," be says, ",tnat the enlisted force required for one, jrellef to serve the modern coast armament in this military department ia estimated at 15,010 men. Ob the 18th of last Jane the enlisted strength of the heavy bat teriea in the department amounted to only-4,088 men, and of theae quite a number of artillery soldiers Are requir ed by the exigencies of the service to garrison posts which are not properly artillery statlone. "It may also be stated that1 with the exception of the artillery sobool at Fort Monroe, Va., there is not ia any important harbor in the United States even the minimum number of officers and men required by the coast artillery regulations for tho service of modem armament fire, control and direction." Major' Story comments upon the ax tillery reorganisation bill.now pending in congress, and says it is a serious de foot of the measure that it doos not supply sufficient oflloers for staff ad ministration,. "The number of oflloers now absent from tholr batteries," be says, "1 probably in excess of 40 per cent, and thero is no prospect in the near future of improvement in this respect. If the bill passes in its present form this un fortunate condition will be aggravated, since officers must be withdraws from tho batteries for staff admlulstratloa. It is, therefore, earnestly recommended that the artillery be pat npon the same basis as infantry or cavalry in provid-, tag otnoers for ataff work." STRIKERS IN A RIOT. ,,' MssasV gertaaa AsTray ta"Mie Aa mraeite nea-iea. Hasletoa, Pa., Oet. 1SJ. A special policeman waa killed, another waa wounded la the bead, a striker waa probably fatally shot and 10 nonunion men were more or less seriously wound ed at tbe Oneida colliery, of Coxa Brothers, in a clash between the offi aers and 500 strikors this morning. Tha dead policeman is Ralph Mills, aged 50 years, of Beaver Meadow, who 'was one of the oflloers conveyed in a special train early this morning from that place to Oneida. He was shot through the back, Those seriously wounded are: George Kellnor, aged 88, of Beaver Meadow, also a special officer, received shot wounds in the head, but will recover; Joseph Lekow, aged 88, of Sbapptou, a striker, shot in the groin aud will probably die. Tea nonunion meii were stoned, but only two of them were seriously in jured. They are John Vaa Blargia aad James Tosh; of Sbeppteu, The former sustained scalp wounds, aad the latter bad four riba broken. The Oneida colliery bad been is operation alnoe tbe inauguration of the strike. The unlou men at Oneida aud Sheppton decided early tills morning to ulose the mine. They gathered la groups ou tho streets as early as 8 o'clock. As the nouunlon men weat to work they were asked by the strikers to lemaln at home. Some turned back, others did not. Those who went' to tbe colliery were stoned, Van mar gin, one of tho nonunion employes, at tempted to draw 'a revolver, but tha woapon was taken from biin,uud he re ceived a beating. This ooourred just before starting time at th mine. Tha strikers remained at the colliery all morning. Jnpaa Turns to Kiisela. Yokohama, Oot. 12. The tone of publlo sentiment iu Japan, while It partakes of the general bewilderment arising from tbe muddle in China, in dicates quite plainly that there ia a decided tendency toward joining bands with Russia, should this emplro's nat ural allies, Great Britain and America, turn the cold shoulder to ber. At the same time it is perfectly well knows here that Russia's hopes are centering in an ultimate alliance with Japan and it may be that tbe latter, if the Western frienda forsake her, will tare to her aeinl-AHlaio neighbor as the only resource for the settlement of the East ern problem. That it will bo a dis agreeable and unwelcome recourse goes without saying. Tho result of tha Chinese campaign and the facilitiea lor comparison between the soldiers of tha' different nationalities, which It baa afforded, baa been to awaken a prot found contempt for Russian soldlwy on the partofjhe Japanese.
