A package of copies of tho Kobe Herald brought yesterday "by the Monmouth shire contained the following late news from China. Russia is pouring tens of thousands of Cossacks from the North into Manchuria, and report says no human soul Is being spared and a wide open tract Is being made as the troops press forward. They are, nevertheless, meeting some opposi tion en Toute, as the whole of the Chi nese come out against them. I fear we "know really but little of what Is going on in the far north and Interior of tho country. Refugees continue to flock to Vladlvostock from the interior and steamers are leaving fully laden with them. On the 3th more than 12 Roman priests took passages In the Yamashiro Maru, also a. considerable number of Japanese and Chinese; and it is expected that for some time to come ships will be full up. Matters in this country are quiet, and as long as the Boxers can "be kept out of It, little or no trouble with such an element as that will dls? turb Corea, If the Boxers get a footing In Corea the natives from sheer fright will be obliged to join them. The very handsome gift to the allied troops by the Corean Emperor Is very significant and many "venture to think he would do well to send a few hundrod soldiers to join the allied forces. Confi dence seems to have been restored amongst the foreigners living in the northern parts. By the by, the 12 Chi nese transports, with 20,000 Boxers, of -which we heard the other day, have not yet arrived in the port of Fusan. "When in that port some few weeks ago, I found many believed In the re port. Of all the places in Corea Fusan in most safe. It is the most southern and best guarded place In the whole country. Besides being so near to Japan there Is generally one Japanese man-of-war there, and always 200 or 800 well trained soldiers, besides a Japanese pop ulation of 0000. Seoul ad Chemulpo just now are very not, but our friends from China will no doubt find it better than the filthy dirty cities of China. Man? missionaries are the guests of the resi dents of both Seoul and Chemulpo. The railway between the two places Is tn Eood working order and It Is a groai boon to the public, as is also the electric railway in SpouL Chemulpo, August 9, 1900. MurIcrs of MIKlonarles. The Catholic Mission In Kobe is being fcept advised of the fate of Catholic mis sionaries in China from Shanghai. By the latest mail comes the news that Fa thers F. Gourgon and M. Leroy have been murdered In Manchuria, and that Fathers J C. Monnler, A. H. Roubln and F. Del pnl have escaped. Details of the fate of t'loso who suffered several previous vic tims have already b en reoortod are rot f nt to Kobe, although It Is supposed that the Catholic representatives in Shanghai have been advised as fully as possible. It is known that a number of Catholic irLsslonarles from th Interior of Manchu r'a have been able to reach Vladlvostock, and these, or others, arc expected to come en to Japan. So far, only one Catholic refugee missionary from China has ccme to Japan, and he. naving just arrlred, had not been able to go forward to his post. A number of missionaries of this denomination in Mnnchuria and elsewhere have not been beard of, and there are fears that in at least some of the cases the worst has already happened. We understand that since the outbreak in China a large proportion of the quali fied medical men hitherto identified with mission wortc who are now necessarily un able to continue that work, have off re3 their services in connection with the war operations now in progress towards Fe Wn. Most of them are not only duly qual ified from British .and American colleges, but have. In the course of their work in China, obtained a special knowledge of the treatment of wounded men, fo that their services might have been regarded as likely to he of peculiar value. "We are given to "believe, however, that the appli cations they have sent in chiefly, of course, to the British authorities have nT5t met with much encouragement, -while in some cases the reception accorded their offers has been lacking even In the ele ments of courtesy. In one case where one gentleman was actually received on" board a British -warship as substitute for . tjie staff man who nad gone to the front, the general demeanor held towards him was far from being such as could bo deemed even fair and gentlemanly. The mere ignorant contempt held In some quarters Is not difficult to understand in most cases, but If preconceived prejudice Is to .operate in official and formal mat lewt end relations, a pretty pass has been reached.

Yung Lu, ex-Viceroy of Chi 24, was killed in the engagement. The Manchurians are Indignant over the occupation of New Chwang by the' Rus sians and the Chinese officials declare that the fetllng is so strong that they can recruit thousands of men to iigrht the Russians. .Ze Klh, Commander of Shlng King, has dispatched 10,000 troops to engage the Rus sians to the south of' Liao Yo and re occupy New Chwang. He wired to .Gov ernor Yuan for reinforcements, but the latter replied that he was not in posses sion of a sufficient . number of men to guard Ills own territory. A similar appli cation was forwarded to Jung Lu, who replied that he was unable to render him any assistance as the situation In Pekln demanded all his attention. Corean. Nerva. ' Chemulpo, Aug. 13, 12:55 P. M The ToMwa and Takasago, which havebeen delayed here on account of a heavjr fog, sailed for Japan via Fusan this morn ing at 10 o'clock. It is reported that Russian spies have arrived at Chemulpo. One of these, who gives out that he Is a teacher of languages and Is accompanied by a Japanese wom an, revealed his true character while playing the part of an eavesdropper in a certain hotel where Japanese officers were lodging. Various Coreans are reported to be engaged as spies by the Russians. Malnlchl. Slclt on the Oregon. Few here, I Imagine, have knowledge of the fact that Uncle Sam came peril ously near losing his pet while she was on her way across from the neighborhood of Che Foo to Kure. It is a fattt that the famous battleship encountered the tail end of a typhoon between Quelpart and the coast ' of Klushiu and at one time Captain1 "Wilde, I am told, despaired of bringing his ship through. Fortunately she weathered the storm safely. By the way, I don't know that the Jmbllc has yet heard" that Secretary Long cabled the Oregon's Captain a message which affords irrefutable evidence of the hold his ship has on, the affections of his countrymen and countrywomen. Luckily I am in a position, to give the message and luckily for the public of the flourishing town -of Kobe my lucubrations appear, here. You want the message? Ah, pardon, I had forgotten in my joy at being able to give such a treat. It runs: "universal re- joiclng over safety Oregon. She Is the Constitution of this generation. If safety of Oregon permit patch and go to Taku. Commend your preference for service there." Now let us hope that the good ship will soon be In her rightful place in the front line. Q. E. D. Foreign Trade of Japan. August 1L The foreign trade of Japan for the first seven months of this year re sulted In an excess of some "77,003,OCO yen 00000000000000000000000000 APPEAL TO " All mill proprietors or .manufacturers, merchants and employers generally, ace urged to close their places of business, Tuesday afternoon, and give their employes an opportunity to participate in the great Carnival parade. The success of the Carnival means a great deal to Portland, and you can help to make it a success if you will allow those in your employ to take, part in" the -parade. - They are all eager to do so, and will reflect credit upon you and your concern. When your em ployes come to work Tuesday morning, tell them they may have the afternoon oft. They will do the rest. Respectfully, PARADE COMMITTEE. . 960e99a00O0oeoooeooooeoo0&ooooooeo000eeoeooooe in Imports. How the foreign trade of this country will result during the remaining five months of this year. It is not easy to surmise at the present time, but at pres ent there are n.o signs of a remarkable re vival in the export trade. Moreover, the disturbances in China will probably last for some time to come. If things go on as at present, the excess in Imports will probably exceed 100,000,000 yen this year. Effect of. "War oa Trade. August S. Disturbing elements In Can ton "are having a bad effect on trade. The banks for the most part refuse to advance money, an.d the scarcity of sliver has added considerably to the -interest A large number of refugees (Cantonese) have arrived from New Chwang, bringing with them a considerable quantity of trading materials. It Is said that the business of Canton with North China has fallen oft to the extent of J5.000.000 for the last few months. Japan Steamer Line. August 14. The Nippon XpBen.

CIRCUS EQUAL. HAS NO Hob Added Many Nerf Performers and Animals, and Will Bring: t 1 Them All to Portland. The circus whidh Rlngllhg Bros, are bringing to Portland tor next Thurs day and Friday Is. a plethoric promise of arenlc and zoological good things. Neverbefore in the history of this biggest of big shows has its programme of star features been so plentiful. The list of attractions is almost bewildering In Its Immensity. The rings, of which there are three, are kept filled with acrobats, vault ers, leapers, tumblers and trained ani mals, ahd at times as many as a dozen feats and features are in progress simul taneously. The elephants of the show, which created such a furore In Portland last year, have been trained to perform In new ''stunts," evoking even more wonder than formerly. , Including the 61-horse act of John O'Brien's, there T are over 125 of the 500 horsjss 'carried 2y the show that perform at different times under 'the circus tent The "ond great feature of all these equine acts Is the cake-walking horse. The Bos ton Globe deyoted a page to Illustrating photographically the positions and-atU-tudes'ln which Its artist with the camera caught these various poises of the cream colored beauty. Thq pictures show the animal as having caught the spirit of the famous dance and ake the quadruped appear, to enjoy the "coon" cake-walk even fpore than its chodolate-colored orig inators. But after everything else is said and done (the clowns claim pre-eminence in the Ringling show. Last year the ,,25 clowns of the show kept the audience laughing form start to finish but this year they are almost doubled In number and keep the crowds so hilarious that dull care Is out of a Job with every one under the big tents. The feature of the clowning is in lts&carlcatUres of - the frailties and foibles of. human existence. The star Idea In th modern circus clown's hits and quibs is nil and therein lies Its value In making one laugh without enlisting one's thinking apparatus. Forty of these funny fellows in the Ringling show make it their business "to stop' the world from thinking and start them laughing on cir cus day. The circus parade of the big show will oefcurion Thursday morning at, the usual time. The route and other details will be announced on Wednesday next , TRACE Y AND JOST. t Great Interest Manifested in the Con test to Take Place Wednesday . Evening. V ' r As the , time for the contest between Charles Jost and Tommy Tracey draws nearer, the Interest stea'dlly Increases. It will he a 20-round go, a decision to he rendered by ttye referee If both men are on their feet at the end of the contest The match . wll be brought off under auspices that will Insure a clean contest, and t;he best inan will win. Nothing that irj any Way savors of a fake will be tol erated, Jost Is In excellent condlUon, and it will take a very clever man, with lots of vitality and punishing power, to defeat him. Tracey 4s an experienced fighter with an excellent record, and his friend have confidence In his ability" to defeat the Portland boy. . THIS HEN HAS RECORD. Sne.
