THE YAQUI WAR ENDED.
Bo Reports Mexican General to
Govern xne'nt.
the
CITY OF MEXICO. July 22.-General
Luis Torres, Governor of Sonora and Commander-in-Chief
of the forces against the
Yaquls, has come to this city to make a
detailed report of the progress of the
campaign to President Diaz and Minister
of "War Reise. From an Interview with
h'm It Is gathered that the Taquls have
been pretty -well scattered and broken up
Into small bodies and are not seriously
troublesome at present. Several batches
of prisoners have been sent to Gaudala
3ara, Iraputo, and other places, with the
view of making useful citizens out of
them. The General has followed strictly
'the policy of the government in dealing
with them which is to give them every
reasonable Inducement to return to their
farms or got them employment elsewhere
without being any more severe than ab
solutely necessary.
The YaQuIs aro really superior people.
The large companies operating in Sonora
eay they make the best workmen, but
there are turbulent spirits among them
who are always ready to make trouble.
The, last trouble, which ended by pacifica
tion Jn ggjras expected to end the dlfll
cultsSSsljfen the government and In
dians,' and very good concessions were
made by the government, but the Indians
had kept their part of the arrangement
less than two years when they were
persuaded. Just after an extensive fiasco,
to take up arms again. The Yaquis are
splendid fighters, know the country well
tind have in some cases ambushed the
troops, doing more or less damage. The
whole affair has been nothing but a series
of guerrilla skirmishes. One great dis
advantage is that at certain periods the
weather is so excessively hot that It is
almost Impossible to move troops, while
the Indians are used to this and are not
especially inconvenienced.

BETTER TONE IN BERLIN.
Dae to Better Reports of American
Iron nnd From China.
BERLIN. July 22. On the Bourse a
better tone prevailed than during the
weok. previous, due partly to the better
American Iron market reports and partly
to tho Improved report from tho inter
national camp In China and the unusual
lightness of the meney market. Tno
feature of the week was tho rise In coal
shares through the contlnuod excellent
reports from mining centers; nevertheless
they relapsed yesterday.
Iron shares rln"d moderately, but also
fell off yesterday rrcn the receipt of re
ports of the dimlnrllon of new orders for
iron goods and th rumors that the
Americans will combine to force Iron
exports.
Chinese loans wrj stronger upon tne
payment of the latest interest.
The money market was surprised that
tho Bank of Eilar.d raised the rate a
full 1 per cent, and the. effect here has
been a moderate acvance in "London ex
change. Further lit 1 1 rts of English gold
are not expected. Mcr.ey rates have not
yet been affectel bj the London advance.
On the contrary, money receded to 24
per cent, a phenomenally low rate for
Berlin.
The German sugar ' organ expresses
great disappointment that the Hay-Holle-bon

INDIANA GAS FAILING,
Five Glass Plants "Will Soon Be
Moved to rittsburff.
PITTSBURG, July 22,Henry C. Frye,
prosldent of the National Glass Company,
announces that five of the company's
plants will be removed from Indiana to
the Pittsburg district as soon as proper
sites can be secured. This will affect
over 3000 workmen. The reasons given
for the change are that the supply of
natural gases in Indiana is diminishing,
and that the Ohio River provides un
usual facilities for reaching the Southern
markets.
Insist on Siffninn: Xew Scale.
PITTSBURG, July 22. The members of
the Amalgamated Association have de
cided to Insist on the Republic Iron &
Steel Company signing the scale for the
new base rate of Jo 50 per ton for pud
dling. The American Tinplate Workers

to their committee, and it is probable
that the tinplate scale will soon be ad
justed. Over 15,000 men are Interested.

THE PRESIDENT'S SUNDAY.
"Went to Church, and Heard Prayer
for Diplomats In China.
CANTON, O., July 22. President Mc
Klnley attended service at St. Paul's
Episcopal Church today Instead of at his
usual place, Bishop Leonard, of the dio
cese of Ohio, a personal friend of the
President, conducting tho services. Spe
cial prayers were said for those engaged
in war, for the diplomats In China and
for all in distress on account of the Chi
nese situation.
Considerable news waa received from
Washington by the President on the
Chinese question, but the policy of having
all information given to the press at
Washington was adhered to. No special
plans for the week have been arranged
by President McKlnley.
Russia's First Move.
Harper's Weekly.
England Is elsewhere fully engaged, and
Russia has decided that the time has
come to engage in active operations. Her
only opponent 1b Japan, and by the first
moves on the chess-board that country
is placed at a disadvantage. Any other
move would have suited Japan better.
With Pekin taken and rendered impreg
nable Russia can bid Japan do her worst.
The Taku forts at the mouth of the Pel
Ho, defended by the Czar's soldiers, would
prove exceedingly difficult to take. Port
Arthur will shield Russia's fleet, and is
in such proximity as to render the land
ing of troops within tho Gulf of Pechlll
a matter of serious risk.
Russia's army In the far East exceeds
100,000 men, but Japan can mobilize an
army of five times that number, in indi
vidual courage equal to any in the service
of the Czar, and Imbued with a fiery pa
triotism. If Russia had made Corea the
battleground Japan would have had a fair
chance of victory. As lt is all the
chances aro in favor of Russia, whose
war funds, collected since many years,
enable her to play a waiting game, which
Japan cannot afford. A short, brilliant
campaign is not on Russia's programme.
Her object is the annexation of China,
and to accomplish that purpose she will
seize any means.
In possession of the Forbidden City
edicts will be Issued In poor Kuang Hsu's
name, and the Cossack will see that
they are obeyed. That Forbidden Citv
with its occupant, the poor Tion Tsz',
or Son of Heaven, renders Russia virtual
ly owner of China.

LONDON, July 22. A dense fog hung
over the Irish Channel yesterday morning.
and the Cunard line steamer Campania,
en route from New York for Liverpool,
struck the Liverpool bark Embleton,
bound for New Zealand, amidships, cut
ting her in twain. The Embleton sank.
Immediately. Seven of the crew woro
rescued, hut it Is believed the other 11
members of tho ship's company, including
the captain, were drowned. The Cam
pania had her bows stove in, but arrived
safely at Liverpool, five and a half hours
late.
The Campania had a narrow escape
from serious disaster. The fog had de
layed her passage since Friday noon, and
a tender went out from Queenstown, four
miles, as Captain Walker would not take
tho liner near shore. At Tuskar Light,
the fog was becoming denser every mo
ment. When the Campania was about 30

According to the Embleton's survivors.
for nearly half an hour before the col
lision, the captain and first officer were
below at breakfast, and. although the
fog whistle of a large steamer could be
heard every minute, the bark never shift
ed her course, the helmsman receiving no
order. When, at 8:25 A. AL, the second
officer, to use his own phrase, "heard the
rush of a steamer's bows," he shouted
down to the captain, who rushed on
deck, but he was too late to give an or
der. The Campania was under one-third
steam. The captain, flrst officer and pilot
were on the bridge. The engines were
instantly, reversed, and the "helm put hard
down. No precaution was omitted. Some
of her passengers had even grumbled at
what they called superfluous caution.
After the crash and the sudden cries, tho
boats were quickly gotten out. There
were no signs of panic; the crew wa$
everywhere at their stations, and the best
discipline was maintained; the bulkheads
were closed and everything possible was
done to save life.
Some of the Campania's plates were
bent by the collision; her forepeak filled
with water: her foretopmast was broken
short off and her steel rigging torn and
tnlsted. ,
The passengers held a meeting, adopted
resolutions of thanks to the captain and
crew, and subscribed 700 for the relief
of the survivors and the families of tho
lost.
The Cunard officials announce that the
damage sustained by tho liner will not
prevont her sailing for the United States
next Saturday.

N. Grlgsby, whose body lies beneath

HANDICAPS TOO HEAVY
PREVENTED AMEHJCAl&S FROM
WIXNIXG PARIS ' CONTESTS.
Of Six Events Yankee Boys Com
peted. In Three, and "Won One,
the 200 Metres Flat.
PARIS, July 22. The world's amateur
championship contests In connection with
the Paris exposition came to a conclusion
today at the grounds of the racing club.
In the Bols de Boulogne. The weather
was cooler than It was last week, though
the sun shone brightly. Comparatively
fetv Americans attended, owing to the
fact that only three or four of their
countrymen were announced to compete
In the events, for the most part handi
caps, in which the Americans had re
ceived too severe treatment to tempt them
to exhaust themselves in running losing
races. Six events were decided. The
Americans competed in three and won
one, their only success of the day.
The programme opened with the 100-
metres hurdle race, S. C. Kraenzleln, Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, being made the
scratch man. As the other Americans who
ontered were also pulled back, all declined
to run. Rau, a German, with a 20 metres
allowance, won; Pritchard, with eight
nieircs, was secuuu, turn niiuBiiiuei.cr,
French, with 14 metres, third; time, IS 1-5
seconds.
Three competitors stripped for the shot-
putting, tho six Americans who had en-
tered, Including Richard Sheldon, New
onlv eIsnt went to the starting post, two
out of 13 Americans alone running. Two
trials resulted in William J. Holland, Uni
versity of Georgetown, and Walter B.
Tewksbury, University of Pennsylvania,
with Pritchard, of tho English team, and
Rowley, of New South Wales, qualifying.
The final heat gave America her only vic
tory of the day, and was the occasion of
a magnificent tussle between Tewksbury,
Pritchard and Rowley. All three left
the mark together, and dashed up tha
track with Holland close behind. At first
Pritchard led, but Tewksbury quickly got
abreast of him, and the two then ran
neck and neck to the finish, Tewksbury
beating Pritchard on the tape by six
Inches. Rowley was a good third. Time,
22 1-5 seconds.
The 1600-metres flat handicap brought
outfl. good field, 17 starting, most of theso
Frenchmen, George W. Orton, University
of Pennsylvania, being the sole represen
tative of the United States, and tho
scratch man. He had no chance with his
competitors with their allowances. Duh
wor. German, with. 150 metres handicap,
won; Chrlstensen, Dane, with 2C metres
handicap, being second, and Dellvre,

NO OFFICIAL NEWS FROM CHIN'A.
Conner's Dispatch Basis of Notes to
Other Governments.
WASHINGTON, July 22. With tho ex
ception of the brief dispatch from Ad
miral Kempft announcing that the New
ark was going to Nagasaki, there has
been nbthlng received In Washington to
day by the State dr Navy Departments
regarding China. This was also true of
the Chinese Legation, Minister Wu say
ing after dinner tonight that ho had not
a word from his country today. The lat
ter continues extremely optlmlstlo of the
safety of the Legatlonere in Pekln. and
hopes that the dispatch from Minister
Conger received here Friday is but the
precursor of more detailed information
of a still brighter character from the
Chinese camp.
Many of his callers today inquired of
him about tho report that China had
asked the United States Government to
exercise its good offices for his country
in the present crisis, but he declined pos
itively to make any statement on tho sub
ject. At tho Japanese legation, which has,
been a source of much of tho news which
has recently come from China, tho of
ficials also were without advices today.
Nbthlng has been heard at the legation
of the report published In the American
newspapers that the Japanese government
is about to despatch a sJcond division of
troops from Yokohama arid Chinese ter
ritory. When Secretary Hay received the Con
ger dispatch on Friday, he promptly tel
egraphed the fact to our Ambassadors
and Ministers abroad, coupling lt with
instructions to lay it before the respective
governments to which they are accredited
and to urge upon them the necessity for
co-operation for the relief of the foreign
ers in Pekln. Several replies- have been
received at the State Department; In re
sponso to tho Secretary's dispatch, but
they are withheld from publication for
the present. The officials here will abate
nono of the efforts now making to ob
tain moro definite news and to push for
ward tho relief column on its way to the
Chinese capital.
Up to a late hour last night, nothing
has been heard from Major-General Chaf
fee, who Is to command the American
forces in China, and whoso arrival a
Nagasaki Is hourly expected.
CHINESE LAUNDRIES CLOSE.
Chicago People Withdraw Patron
aue Truck Farms Also.
CHICAGO. July 22. The Chinese pop
ulation of Chicago is perturbed over tho
reports from the various parts of the
city that because of Caucasian antipathy
aroused by the trouble In the Celestial
Empire a boycott has been instituted
against Chinese laundries and truck
farms. Wu. Sung Lee. a banker in China
town and probably tho richest Mongolian
in the city, says four laundries have been
forced to suspend business during the
past week, and Chinese laundries gener
ally report a falling off of 50 per cent
in their business. Banker Wu said today:
"The white people think that we are
In sympathy with the Boxers, and that
they have our moral support. Nothing
could bo further from the truth. Every
Chlneso In the city regrets the trouble,
and hopes that the foreigners have not
been murdered. Some of us have even
authorized the Chlneso Consuls at San
Francisco to offer to the Chinese Gov
ernment our services and our property,
to the end that the foreigners, especially
the Americans, in China may be saved."
TROOPS TO PROTECT CHINESE.
Outrages Committed in "Wyoming
Necessitate State Action.
CHICAGO. July 22. A special to the
Times-Herald from Cheyenne. Wyo., says;
A number of outrages have been com
mitted by foreigners upon the Chinese
residents of Rock Springs, a coal mining
town 200 miles west of here, on the Union
Pacific Railroad, during the past few
days. The state authorities, fearing a.
general movement against Chinatown,
where more than 500 Chinese reside, have
ordered several companies of troops to
be In readiness to move to the scene.
Probably two companies of infantry will
go to Rock Springs tomorrow, when mar
tial law will be proolalmed. The feeling
among the foreign laborers at Rock
Springs against the Chinese Is at fever
heat, but the state authorities will do
everything possible to protect the China
men and prevent bloodshed.

ST. PAUL. July 22. w'N. Lovatt, who
spent 40 years In the, customs service In
China, is In the city. In an Interview
today, Mr. Lovatt declared his absolute"
disbelief in the authenticity of the tele
gram received at "Washington signed by
M1nliAT rntiwi1 TT hpHrrvpa thn last au-
;jthentic Information from any of the Le- J
gationers was the message from the sec
retary of the German legation, counter
signed by Sir Robert Hart, and dated
June 13. Mr. LoVatt says that Sir Robert
Hart was a favorite with the Chinese,
and the fact that no later message has
come from him means that every for
eigner in Pekln has been killed, for if
any one could get a message out of
Pekln it would be Sir Robert. Mr. Lov
att also discredits the story that the Le
gatloners found refuge behind the palace
walls. Of the general situation, Mr. Lov
att says all will depend on the attitude
of LI Hung Chang, who has heretofore
been friendly, and will probably continue;
so.
