VOL. VIII THE DALLES, OREGON, THURSDAY, APRIL 11, 1895 NO 86 DENIED BY ENGLAND Kecent Eeports Regarding Nicaragua Untrue. SO SAYS THE BRITISH ADMIRALTY Threats for Nteauragaa ud Taffy for Bar Oreat Northern Neighbor Want bat Her Dae. London, April 10. Regarding the re port from New York that the British sloop-of-war Wild Swan has joined the Royal Arthur, the flagship'of the British Pacific squadron, at Panama, prepara tory to her expected departure for Cor inth, Nicaragua, to enforce the ultima tum of Great Britain demanding $75,000 indemnity for the expulsion from Nica gua of Mr. Hatch, British consular agent at Bluefields, it was stated at the admiralty today, in reply to questions, that no orders had been given the Wild Swan or Royal Arthur, which would warrant the statements made. The Times today, in an editorial on the situation, says: "If we are com pelled to collect customs Nicaragua will presumably have to pay the costs of col lection in addition to the indemnity. She will find it less troublesome and - cheaper to settle with "as forthwith. Her efforts to excite the jealously of America have failed. Justice, with the good sense of the Americans, has proved too strong for the success of these char acteristic maneuvers. Americans should only hear our case and demands to ac knowledge onr conduct was reasonable and just, and to admit that our claims were of such a character as they would themselves have made under similar circumstances. We have assured Amer wana that we are not seeking fresh ter ritory. Our object is to obtain an ade quate apology for injury done and the . payment of compensation which we be lieve to be our due." The Globe this afternoon, comment ing on the same subject, remarks "Llka other Central American republics given to twisting the lion's tail, Nicara gua hoped Washington would flare up in behalf of the Monroe doctrine, but Presi dent Cleveland, upon inquiring into the matter discovered the quarrel did not concern America. It would be intolera Die were the Monroe . doctrine so wrenched as to cover such international outrages as that of which Nicaragua has been guilty. Fortunately for the con tinuance of friendly relations between the two great nations there is far less disposition than formerly in America to take advantage of every opportunity to hurl defiance at England. Sensible Americans recognize that the 'Monroe doctrine, though founded on excellent principles, requires to be enforced with prudence and discretion." The New Silver Party. Nkw York, April 10. A Washington special says : Leaders of the new silver party are said to be laying plans for an attempted conversion of the labor ele ments of the East to the free-silver doc trine. They are credited with the opin ion that the existing unrest end dissat isfaction among the. laboring classes can be utilized to excellent advantage in fur thering their plans. The outlines of their intentions, furnished today, con tains the statement that they will charge that much of the trouble of the laboring classes is due to what they term con tracted currency, and to the monopoly of goldbugs. Socialistic classess will be arrayed against the gold standard as be . ming synonymous with capital and mo nopoly. Wall street and the Roths childs will be set up as the bugbear of workingmen, and responsible for all their ills, and free coinage of silver and an en enlarged circulating medium will be suggested as the only cure for exist ing troubles. Hundreds of books and pamphlets presenting the silver ques Highest of all m Leavening Power. "mim r-'T- T' 'TilTU t I i(S))(MJ tion are being circulated throughout the country. Every time an eastern man makes a declaration in iavor of free coinage, the promoters of the new party seize upon it eagerly and give it the wildest circulation, On the other hand, the assertion of Senator Sherman that free coinage "would result in the most tremendous financial panic this country has ever known, and would paralyze business and trade beyond anything ever known by any nation in the world" is booted at as - merely the raving of a goldbug." Armistice In the Orient Hearing an Ind. Washington, April 10. The Japan- China armistice closes in 10 days, so it is anticipated by officials and diplomats that the final terms of peace must be near at band. It is stated, however, by Coreans, that it is characteristic with them not to meet an emergency until the last day. . The case is cited in which Japan gave Corea three months to ac quiesce in certain conditions. There was no response until the day before the three months expired, when . Corean officials appeared and stated - the subject had been overlooked and more time was desired, which request, however, was not granted. It would not be surprising to the officials if Li Hung Chang took theill 10 days before yielding to all the Japanese demands. Reports that the indemnity will be about 400.000,000 yen coincides with the understanding here that ' $200,000,000 would be the amount of the payment. The present rate of exchange on a silver yen is' 47 cents, so that 400,000,000 silver yen would be $188,000,000. . ' It is agreed by all hands, including Japanese and Chinese officials, that the independence of Corea will be one of the terms of peace. This brings out the curious fact that the United StateB is the only power which haa hitherto recog nized Corea as independent, and has re ceived a diplomatic delegation from that country. It is stated that some time ago China addressed a private letter to all foreign powers, in which it was argued that Corea was 'independent in conduct ing her internal affairs, but was a trib utary of China so far as her dealings with foreign powers were concerned. It has never been disclosed what answer the powers gave, but from the fact that Corea has no diplomatic delegation out side of the United States, it is concluded that the European powers acquiesced in the Chinese suggestion, and failed' to ac cord to Corea complete independence of China. It is understood that the United States never made any formal reply to China's contention, but the establish ment of the Corean legation at Washing ton was a tacit refusal to recognize her authority over Corea, and a recognition of the latter's independence. It is be lieved that the peace agreement between Japan and China will so. conspicuously affirm Corea'a independence that the little kingdom will extend- her treaty re lations with the remainder of the world and establish legations throughout Europe as well as in the United States Galley Blectea Speaker. London, April 10. William Court Galley, M. P. for Carlisle, the govern ment candidate, was elected speaker of the house ef commons today, in ' succes sion to Sir Arthur Wellesley Peel, who resigned Monday, by a narrow majority of 11. The Parnellites voted against the government. Mr. Gulley is a liberal, who supports Gladstone's Insh policy. The election was attended by exciting scenes. Balfonr resented that a man so absolutely unknown in a parliamentary capacity as Mr. Gulley should be nomin ated. Sir William Vernon Harcourt re plied warmly, and Balfour again arose. He was received with loud cries of "spoken," from the McCarthyites, led by Timothy Healy. This continued several minutes, while Balfour stood unmoved at his table. Amid great excitement members vainly endeavored to induce Healy to desist. Tflere were loud angry cries of "Name," but the chair being vacant, it was impossible to call him to order. Ultimately, however, Balfour was allowed to speak. Latest U. S.
