SPOILING FOR A FIGHT
Mexico Is Very Bitter Tow
ard Guatemala.
ONE STATE OFFERS ITS MILITIA
Cuius Has Offered to Pay a Heavy War
Indemnity Tbe Czar Troubled
With Insomnia.
City op Mexico, Nov. 22. The Uni
versal newspaper today contains a very
warlike article regarding the Mexican-
Guatemalan trouble. It says : "In
consequence of the continued attacks
against Mexico and her government,
made b y the official Guatemalan press,
it was rumored yesterday this country
would declare diplomatic relations with
Guatemala at an end. In Guatemala
they say the Mexicans always fled be
fore the Americans and French. The
world knows the Mexican soldier does
not turn his back. Chuiubusco, Cha
puttepec, Puebla, etc., are witnesses of
that. With Guatemala we do not ex
pect glory or the gaining of laurels. We
have offered them friendship and they
return black ingratitude, and our men
and our people are not in the humor to
listen to the diatribes of the Guatemalan
press."
Arrested for Orave Robbing;.
Lincoln, Nov. 22. Last Wednesday
Otto Albers, aged 35, died in this city
Thursday the body was buried in Wyuka
cemetery. Friday last .Superintendent
Byre discovered through one of his as
sistants that the grave of Albers had
been rifled and the body carried away
The coffin lid was found on top of the
rough box, bnt the coffin and corpse had
been spirited away. Suspicion at once
attached to some medical college students
connected with one of the universities
Byre placed Detective Malone on the
case. Malone has been at work, and
last night rounded up a party of medical
students at the lecture room at Cotner
university. Dr. Alexander illustrated
his lecture by dissection, and had ap
plied the knife to the cadaver when Ma
lone came in and placed the whole class
under arrest. The party was brought to
the station, where a preliminary exam
ination was held by Acting County
Judge Wurzburg. The prisoners were
released on bonds of $500 each to appear
for trial.
Mutinous Indian Sailers.
Vancouver, B. C, Nov. 22. At the
Westminster assizes yesterday six of the
Indian crew of the sealing schooner C
D. Band were found guilty of revolt and
mutiny on the high seas. Just outside
of Behring sea, in last season's sealing
cruise, the crew took possession of the
vessel and remained in command nine
daya. The Indians outnumbered the
white men three to one. At length the
captain took advantage of a favorable
opportunity when only two were on
deck and drove them into the hold
where he shut them up till he reached
Vancouver. For the defense it was
claimed that the captain supplied them
with whisky, gave them no food and was
. taking them to Copper island instead of
Behring eea, as agreed upon, and the In
dians, fearing barbarous treatment at
the hands of the .Russians, revolted
Sentence was postponed till Friday.

Assaulted by a Tramp
Huntington, L. I., Nov. 22.y-Eliza
beth Oakley, the 12-year old daughter of
Wilmot Oakley, a farmer of West Hills,
was assaulted by a tramp yesterday.
She left home for school about 8 o'clock,
and was found by a neighbor at 9 o'clock
by tbe roadside, about half a mile from
her home. She "was unconscious, and
has been unable since to give a descrip
tion of her assailant except that he wore
derby hat and a brown overcoat.
This assault occurred within a few rods
of the place where "Susie" Jones was
assaulted and her hair cut off by a tramp
about a month ago. . A party of farmers
are searching for Miss Oakley's assailant.
thev threaten to deal with him without
the aid of the courts if they catch him.
China to be Notified.
Washington, Nov. 22. In accordance
with the suggestion of Japan the state
department has notified Ministers Dun,
at Tokio, and Denby, at Peking, to
transmit direct any offer China may
wish to make to Japan. The Chinese
delegation here is not notified as to what
coarse the government will take. A
cable from Japan states, however, that
China has intimated a willingness to
pay an indemnity of 100,000,000 taels,
and in addition all the war expenses in
curred by Japan. As the war expenses
reach 150,000,000 taels, the total offer of
China would be 250,000,000 taels. A
tael is a Chinese silver coin worth about
75 cents at the present exchange. It is
believed here the arrangements between
the two nations could be effected on
terms providing for a smaller indemnity,
Diplomats say under ordinary circum
stances it would take some time for
China to formally present its offer to
Minister Denby. But as the Japanese
are now at the walls of Port Arthur
about to make a last blow at China's
greatest fortress, it is anticipated China
may hurry tbe negotiations to a
conclusion. It is expected Minister
Denby will transmit the offer by tele
graph to Tien-Tsin and Shanghai, and
thence by cable to Yokohoma.
Bill Cook and His Gang.
Muskogee, I. T., Nov. 22. Last night
half a dozen members of the Cook gang
were on the streets here. Citizens be'
gan hunting for them, but the outlaws
made themselves ecarce. Officers who
fought with them last night came in
about dusk and reported they had
chased the bandits to the bottoms, and
there lost their course. Cherokee bill
was seen 16 miles north of Muskogee,
He had two Winchesters and two six-
shooters. Lou Cook, queen of the out
laws, and sister of Bill and Jim Cook, is
in Muskogee. It is believed she Is
planning a release for Wade Chamblee
the robber, now in jail. Extra jail
guards have been placed on duty,
United Slates Attorney Jackson has
wired Attorney-General Olney that all
the officers have returned from the chase
and, in his opinion, the only thing to be
done is to send troops.
German Interference in Samoa.
Apia, Samoa, Nov. 7 (per steamer
Mariposa, via San Francisco Nov. 22
While there have been no recent native
outbreaks, a state of political unrest
continues, without any prospect of ter
mination. The native rebels are so far
from being subdued that many close ob
servers believe that King Malietoa's
government is doomed. The belief is
becoming more general, too, that cer
tain influential Germans are secretly
aiding the rebel party, with a view to
placing it in power, thus rendering Ger
man annexation, or a German protecto
rate, easy of accomplishment. The
German warship Buzzard and the En'
glish cruiser Curacoa are still here.
Battle Between Warships. -
London, Nov. 22. A Yokohama dis
patch states tbe . Chinese Pei Yang
squadron attacked and shelled the Jap
anese troops who were marching upon
Port Arthur. The troops had taken a
road near the coast. The Japanese fleet
came to the assistance of the troops, and
desperate fight took place between the
warships, the result of which is not
known. 'The Chinese battleship Chen
Yuen became useless during the fight,
and ran ashore trying to avoid torpedoes
at tbe entrance to the harbor of Wei-Hai-Weu
Mexicans favor a War.
Kansas City, Nov. 22. A special to
the Star from Guanajuato, Mexico, says
the legislature of that state has unani
mously adopted a resolution offering to
the federal government all the state
militia and munitions of war to aid in
carrying on waf against Guatemala.
The feeling of the people of Mexico
against Guatemala is very bitter, and
tbe general sentiment is in favor of .war
being declared without further delay.
Chinese Army Troubles.
London, Nov. 22. The Times' corres
pondent in Shanghai says that the re
form of the army proceeds under diffi
culties. Colonel von Hanneken's asso
ciates have friends at court, and are
consistently obstructive. They have
been made independent of the viceroy.
It is confirmed, he says, that Li, once
comander of the Chen Yuen, has been
checked.
Ex-President Petxotto Coming;.
Rio de Janebio, Nov. 22. The United
States will soon be visited by ex-Presl
dent Peizotto. The ex-president is in
bad health, the result of overwork in
cident to the revolution in his country
and the advice of his physicians is that
he make a tour.

The czarina has become very much
emanciated as a result of her vigil at the
