Prussia. Dec. 3. The Kovcrnment has re
j'ected all of the demands of the railwav
employes, and the latter have joined with
the telegraphers In their strike.
Large crowdt. of strikers are patrolling
the various depots and are refusing to let
any of the "weak-kneed" return to their
P'jsts. The police arc powerless to prevent
lneendlary assemblages, at which the
speaiters continue to urge an uprising In
force. The soldiers having been with
drawn from patrol duty, the work Is
thrown upon the police, who are thor
oughly Inadequate.
An army officer, who has just arrived
from Sevastopol, states that Immediately
after the capture of the mutlners there,
drumhead court-martials were held, at
which Lieutenant Schmidt, leader of the
uprising, and all of the warrant officers
from the fleet who participated were or
dered shot. They were Immediately lined
tip against the wall of the barracks and
shot to death. More than 200 were killed
In this way before the officer who brought

Sappers at Klcff Are Dispersed by
Loyal Troops.
LONDON. Doe. 4. The Daily Mall's
Kleff correspondent, in a dispatch dated
wecemoer z, ana forwarded by way of
Podoloczyska, says:
"Early yesterday morning a company
oi sappers, flissatlsfied with their com
mander, mutlned and persuaded a sec
ond company to Join them. They left
the fortress fully armed, and by threats
compelled the remainder of tho sappers'
battalion to join them. Numbering 1000
the mutineers marched to the barracks
of the 125th Kurskln Infantry, which,
however, remained loyal. JcNvish mu
sicians marched at the head of the
mutineers.
"Several attompts were made to in
duce other troops to join them, but
these, likewise, failed, A body of Cos
sacks allowed the rebels to pass them
in tho streets. Finally the routineers
arrived at the barracks of the artillery
division and the Tajioft Infantry regi
ment. The Tazoft men answered their
appeal with Insults and the rebels
opened fire upon them. The Tazoffs
answered with three volleys.
"A portion of the mutineers fled, but
the others continued tiring. The Tar
offs replied with deadly volleys, and
finally the rebels fled headlong, throw
ing down their arms. Two hundred of
them surrendered and were conveyed
to their barracks by Cossacks. All was
over by 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon.
"Fifty dead and 100 wounded mu
tineers were left on the ground. A
court-martial has been convened and a
notice issued that any further attempt
at mutiny will be quelled by artillery."

question of a Japanese nrotcctorat: mt

Baron Komurau latelv rtltirnM f mm
America, has Just left Tokio for Pekln. to
conduct the negotiations with China, In
.renin nc will meet M. PoklUloff. who will
te remembered as a flcure somewhat in
the background In the reent mnfAmnMi
at Jorlsmouth.
PoklUloff Is a man Of rrnat tvkllflrral
Influence in Pckin. Some years ago he
wan a consular student there, aim later
as organiser and manager of the Russo-
vmnese uanK he negotiated RusKian rail
way concessions In Manchuria. He speaks
Chinese perfectly, has a thorough under
standing of the Chinese character, and
Knows personally the eunuchs of the Im
perial household, and through them the
wishes and opinions of the Empress Dow
ager. He has been recently appointed
Russian Minister to China, and win tv a
great factor In the settlement of Man-
cnurian questions. It Is Intercstlnc- m
note that the Empress Dowager has or
dered her councillors to use great care In
me negotiations, so that foreign powers
cannot criticise China.
Peninsula Question In First.
First is the question of the dLtnoMtinn
oi tne J-laotung Peninsula. Thl terrf
tory, leased to Russia for a lonir term of
cars, is, by the articles of the treaty, to
oe given over to Japan. Second. Japan
and Russia have agreed unon 1R month
military occupation of Manchuria hnfar
the withdrawal of Japanese troops; now
imna wishes this period shortened. Third
is tne question of the Chinese Eastern
Railway, which runs between Harbin
and Fort Arthur.
Before the war this rallwav wan nvnivl
by Russia and China, In a complicated
sort or partnership, wherebr the road
was eventually, to revert 'to China. Iiii-
sla still retains the northern portion of
tnis line, and rumors are rife as to what
the Japanese will do with their portion.
it is said that should the Japanese retain
the southern part, running from Chanr-
cnung to i'ort Arthur, the Chinese will
oppose their keeping a railway guard such
as ttussia naa before the war.
The Japanese have alr-Miiv a Jif-h mm
tary line from.Wlju, on the Talu River,
to Llao Yang; this they wish to make
permanent. Russia ha also ceded to them
tne concession for a line from Chanr
chung to ICIrln. a distance
miles, important because the country cov
ered joins the two great rn-crs of Man
churia. the Llao and the SuncarL
Then comes the question of minintr
rights. Manchuria abounds In coal of a
far better quality than that of Japan,
ana this coal Is necessary for the opera
tion of steamships and rallwavic Man
churia abounds, too. In mines of gold, sll-
1 er ano copper, as yet undeveloped. There
must be negotiations also concerning tim
ber-cutting In Manchuria and fisheries on
the iaiu. The Russians had such con
cessions on the Corcan side of the Tain
and persistently sought them In Man-
cuuna.

I have already lived five years beyond mv
allotted time; my Mfe does not slrnlfv. I

than Is Japan. But If Japan succeeds In

Influence, consequently, lessened for some
years to come. This Is for Japan, "a con

on Marquis Ito has devolved the task 'of

which are only the rights of the weak.
He has. for years, beea connected with
the Corcan problem, and has done more
for the Independence of that country than
any other man. Before the beginning of
the war ho went as special envoy to the
corcan court, and was most successful
both In his influence with the people and
In his audit ncfcvrth the Emperor of
uorea.
The Marquis Ito, In case you do not
Know, is one of the five elder statesmen
chosen by the Emperor of Japan as his
advisers. They formulate the noliev o
the government, which Is carried out by
tne Ministry. A Japanese paper, com
mentlng on Marquis Ito's mission savs
"The Corean nation, both high and low.
will, doubtless, place Implicit confidence
In the benevolent disposition of the vener
able st&iesmaa and feel at ease In their
hearts.'
Japan is feeling her new Importance
among the nations of the earth, but there
are no warriors nor statesmen slttlne-
about Idly smoking the peace pipe. There
is a healthy Interest on the nan of the
people In government affairs and In the
welfare of the country. The sentiment
of Japan might well be voiced In these
words: "we have fought with the Ri
lans and gained great victories; now we
can begin to work."
Demand Stronger Foreign Policy.
Bcsld&s the interest In the settlement of
Corcan and Manchurlan problems, the.
papers are agitating reform la the diplo
matic corps, demanding a stronger foreign
policy, with men of flrsa convictions to
represent the nation abroad. The Japa

had his rank, raised to that of Ambsua
dor. It Is supposed that the other nation
will soon follow by raising their legations
to embassies in compliment to the newly
recognized power of Japan.
Side by sldo with this new political re
sponsibility and dlginty. and In curious
contrast with it. Is an outburst of the old
national religion. To a foreigner who sees
the advance of the country In scientific
methods. In all the material nart of mod
em Christian civilization, the knowledge
that Shlntolsm. the old ancestor-worshln
Is still enshrined In the hearts of the
people, comes as a distinct surnrise.
Shinto Is difficult for us to understand
combining as It does the worahio of na
ture and of the ancestors. The temples
are very simple, built of wood, en painted
ana without ornament; there are no im
ages, none of the gorgcousness of Bud
dhism; but the shrines and temples, set.
usually on a little hill In a quiet grove
of pines, are considered the dwelling
places of the spirits of the dead.
Shinto has no heaven nor hell, but
teaches that the spirits of the dead con
tinue to exist and be present In this life,
that therefore they need food, affection.
dally remembrance and prayers, and that
to neglect them would be the extreme of
cruelty. It is thus a religion of affection.
duty and loyalty.
Shrines In Japanese Homes.
Not far from our home Is a villas
street where shopkeepers, mechanics,
shoemakers and tailors live, plying their
trade In the open front rooms of their
houses while the rooms beyond are the
family living-rooms. "Walking down thia
street the other day, I caught glimpses
of many of the Inner rooms, and In each
one. some six feet from the floor, was the
small "Shelf of the August Spirits."
These shelves contain usually a lit tie
model of a Shinto temple, vases of finv.
ers. tiny lamps to be lighted at night, and
wooden tablets. Inscribed with the name
of the household dead. Every day there
are food offerings and prayers for the

The direct cause of the trouble wa an

Is saldvfo bo bad blood existinir between
the men resulting from Craln's testimony
ounng tne Williamson trial.
Harrington Is a fast friend of the de-
Zendants In the famous trial, and Is said
to have taken It to heart that Craln
should aid the Government by his testi

arrested. The drunken man put up a

insensibility by Harrington. It has since
been determined that Craln's skull was
iractured. and but little hope of his re
covery is entertained.
Craln while In Portland as a witness

NEW YORK. Dec 3. (Special.') "His
holiness. Pope Pius X sends his greetlncs
to the Catholics of regon and the Pacific
coast, and extends to them his richest
blessings. He Is deeply interested In their
welfare, and shall always be mindful of
them In his prayera."
The above Is the message from the holv
father to the Catholics of Oregon, brought
back by Archbishop Christie, of the Arch
diocese of Oregon, who reached this port
yesterday on his return home from Rome.
where he has been highly honored by the
pope. The archbishop arrived on the
steamship Princess Irene, In the comoanv
of Right Rev. James F. Hartley, of Co
lumbus, O.. and other distinguished Amer
ican churchmen. Their passage was a
very stormy one, and it became necessary
several times during the voyage for the
prelates to calm the fears of the passen
gers, who were panic-stricken by the
storm. .
On hi3 arrival in this city. Archblshoo
Christie went to the residence of Rev.
Luke J. Evers. of St. Andrew's Church.
where he almost immediately retired, be
ing exhausted by the roughness of the
passage. When seen today by The Orego-
nlan correspondent, he seemed much re
freshed by his rest, and was enthusiastic
over the results of his mission to Rome.
Impressiveness of the Pope.
"My pilgrimage surpassed mv utmost
expectations." said he. "The reception
given U3 by the holy father, the deep and
abiding interest shown by him in our
work, and the spiritual and temporal wel
fare of the people under our charge, is all
that could be desired.
"So Impressive Is his presence that you
feel, when talking to him. that you are
communing with a great universal father.
with a heart as large as the world, which
includes in its yearnings the meanest and
poorest soul, the distressed and the sorely
tried, whoever they may he. His spirit
uality and fervor are so contagious that
no Catholic can depart from an audience
with him without being revivified, going
forth with greater earnestness and nower
to accomplish the mission of our blessed
Lord and Increase bis holy church.
The holy father anDeared to be in ex
cellent health, and inquired anxiously
about the condition of the church in
America. He seemed greatly rejoiced when
he learned of the progress we had made.
and advised us paternally about the diffi
culties with which we have to contend.
"Awed by Rome's Grandeur.
In addition to my audience with the
holy father, to receive his blessing, which.
of course, was the prime motive of my
trip to Rome, which I undertook In the
fulfillment of my duty, there are so manv
things of interest, especially to a church
man, about the sacred city, that I hardly
know where to begin talking about them.
With each succeeding visit I am more
deeply awed-and impressed by the city's
great history and the wonderful monu
ments of the church to be found there.
There are the solendld churches ofSr
Peter and St. Paul and St. John Lateran.
with their great collections of sacred art
of surpassing beauty, doubly Interesting
to the Catholic as expressions of aur
holy religion and as masterpieces of hu
man handicraft. Besides these great
churches, there are hundreds of minor
and less renowned churches, many of
which I vtttea.
"Then there are the wenaerfuj laatitB-
