There is Nothing Use lor Iter to Do. lilt QULSTION Of INDLMMTY. Ijo.ooo.ooo Will Probably Cover Uverythlnf W Could Pos sibly Owe Spain. Lonijon, Nor. 2. The Paris corre spondent of the Dally Telerapn says: The disagreement btlwren the Ameri can anil Spanish peace romnilsslonerf, which under ordinary circumstances might Lavs caused alarm throughout Kurope, is hardly noticed, owing to the Fashoda affair. The Spaniards assert that their gov ern men t will resist the American de mands and will offer the Philippines for a lump sum. If this proposal is not ac cepted, Spain, they say, will recall her commissioners and let the Yankees do what thoy choose. I am assured, how ever, that a rapture on Friday is im probable. Spain will endeavor by argu ments and appeals, to gain whatever concessions sre possible, but she will nol risk a renewal ol hostilities. Tho Daily Chronicle savs editorially this morning: "A war in which the justly vanquished nation receives solatium of 'K),000,000 would bs a novelty so great that it rnast be seen to be believed. In any caee it would be madness for Spain to attempt to resume hostilities." Wahiiinoton, Nov. 1 What the United States will insist upon is that it must be fully reimbursed for every dol lar expended on account of the war, an 1 in the statement will he included an amount snflie'ent to cover all payments, preie.it and prrspcchTe, on account of pensions IncidenUl to the war, No Spanish bonds other than local or municipal will be paid cr axsnmed by this government. What sum this government would consent to pay Spain cannot be even estimated, but when a linal account is rendered il is believed the balance due Spain will bo email, probably not ex ceeding fJ5,C0J,000 or $10,000,0 JO.

A strong Ilimiao fleet is as sembled at Post Arthur. Lonoo, Not. 2. The dispatch from Wel-Hal-Wcl, announcing war prepara tions, officials here announce as grave coupled with the Anglo French war preparations. It is surmised that Rus sia, profiting br the present strained re lations between Great Britain and France, lias decided to forward her aims In the Far EiHt by seizing the valuable treaty port of Nlu Choang, which Grct Britain cannot permit, it ia said. A dispatch from London t tho Asso ciated Press October 2d, said a cable message bad been received there from Shanghai as follows: "A Kuseiau regiment occupied the town of Niu Chuang, province of Leo Tung, and the forts at the mouth of the River Liaou, October 1", thus securing complete possession of Niu Chuang. The native trooi fled without making any opposition, under orders from the empress dowager and Li Hung Chang. A British gunboat was in the river at the lime. This lionresistante is re garded as virtual abandonment of Man churia, and gives Russia an invaluable strategic point. Great Britain is certain to lose the Niu Chuang trad, of which it has about 80 por co.it." MORE TROUBLE FEARED. Frightened Settlers t locking Out of lee Country.

Thteo refugees any 1'iat tin) Indiana are gathering io greni numbers in the Iaee country, and that signal tires are b'irning on every mountain. Cool heads think, however, that the Indian trouble is almost over, and that tbe fugitives are unduly excited. They say there are a few Indian hunters in the country, but they are harm'esa, and that the hostile baud was about exterm inated at the recent tight at Deer Creek. Program.

Hon for War Still Con tlnue. Lonoon, Nov. 1. William Hayes Fisher, one of the junior lords of tbe treasury, member of parliament for Fnl bam and a ministerial whip, (peaking in London this evening, said be bad seen dispatches which enabled, him to assert that tbe French govern romt bad de cided to recall tbe March ami expedition from Fashoda. Lo.voo.f, Nov. 2. Th TarU orre spondent of the Daily Mail says : France will retire from Fasoda uncon ditionally, and without asking compensa tion, Baron de Conrcel, wboee term as French ambassador io London expired long ago, bat wbo held on to conduct ne gotiations affecting Egypt, will not be re called, and no baste will be shown to ap point his successor, with a view of nuk ing French resentment at British action, for England bu almost taken tbe place of Germany as the object of French hat red. The Paris correspondent of the Times says: "Baron de Courcei gathered from a conversation had after the last British cabinet council that Lord Salisbury's at titude bad undergone a cbange, tbe Brit ish premier insisting that it woe impos sible to disregard public opinion in Eng land, and that nothing could be done nntil Fashoda was evacuated. Sa far as French public, opinion is concerned, there Is not tbe slightest idea of going to war for Fashoda, and any government doing eo would be regarded as a govern ment of imbeciles." There is no noticeable cessation in Kn gland's preparations, and tbe officials sre confident of tbejeonntry's ability to meet all emergencies. There were large shipments of guns, shells and war stores to Malta and Gibraltar yesterday. Tbe dispatches from France announce equal activity at Toulon, Brest, Marseilles and elsewhere. The Rome correspondent of tbe Daily Chronicle says: France is making prep arations at Bixorrta, about 40 miles non b west nf Tunis. Guns ammunition arrive daily, and men are strengthening the forts, working day and night. Tbe object is said to be to cut communica tion between Malta and Egypt in tbe event of hostilities with Great Britain. Diphtheria at tbe Orove. ConaGie Ghovx, Or. Oct. 31.
