HAS BLOOD IN HER EYE
Japan Determined to Force
Trouble With Hawaii.
ARBITRATION PROPOSALS-IGNORED
The United State Likely to be Called
Upon to nettle the Immigration
Squabble.
Nbw York, July 12. A dispatch to
the Herald from Washington says :
.Hawaii has offered to refer to arbitra
tion the immigration question 'pendibg
between herself and Japan, but the To
kio government has bo far ignored the
proposition. Telegraphic information to
this effect baa been received at the btate
department, and it is therefore possible
to deny the report published that Japan
bad agreed to arbitrate the vexed ques
tion she is discussing with the Hawaiian
'government. The proposition was 'made
in the report sent the Hawaiian minister
for foreign affairs. ' Mr. Cooper, "in an
swer to Mr. Shimumura's last letter re
iterating the demand of his government
that Hawaii recognize the principle "of
monetary liability as a motive of her ac
tion in excluding Japanese immigrants.
The Hawaiians do not expect" that
Japan would accept arbitration. In
fact, before Minister Shimumura began
correspondence with Mr. Cooper in re
lation to the matter, he declared that his
government would never consent to ar
bitration. At that time neither he nor
his government had any idea that the
strong arm of the United States was soon
to be thrown aronnd Hawaii, and it was
because of this ignorance, state depart
ment officials sav, that Japan has as
sumed such a commanding tone in her
negotiations with the little republic.
It is said that Mr. Shimumura in his
last correspondence with the Hawaiian
government, demands further explana
tion in regard to certain details connec
ted with the immigration controversy, in
which he holds that Hawaiian authori
ties have committed an offfcial offense
againBt his government. The minister
refused to admit the principle of mone
tary liability, aud insists that the Jap
anese government does not want to get
at the real merits of the controversy,
otherwise it would acquiesce in the prop
osition to refer the matter to arbitration.
In view of Mr. Cooper's refusal, it is
the general expectation in administra
tion circles that whether the senate rati
fies the pending annexation treaty or
fails to take action during the present
session, this government will have to set
tle immigration question' with Japan.-
BACK WAlt AT TIEN-TSIN, CHINA.
Natives are Enraged Against foreign
Residents.
San Fbancisco, July 12. The Occi
dental and Oriental steamer Doric has
arrived from China and Japan, two days
ahead of schedule time. She brought
Yokohama advices to June 27.
The Japan Mail gives a summary of
correspondence from Tien-Tsin, which
shows that the state of the foreign
colony in that city is alarming. Three
Chinese were killed in the last days" of
May on charges that they had : stolen
native children in order that they might
serve as offerings to insure the safety of
the foundations of the new French
Catholic cathedral to be dedicated Jane
21.
A Tien-Tsin correspondent says: '
"It is reported that a conspiracy has
been formed to attack the foreign settle
ment on June 21 and to burn the Soman
Catholic cathedral. The consuls of the
various nationalities have deemed it

Tariff BUI Runs Against Some Serious
Obstacles.
Washington, July 12. The tariff con
ferees of the bouse struck some snags in
their work today. The house conferees
are standing solidly by : their bill,' and
the eehate conferees are no less tenacious.
The senate conferees have laid before
the house members the conditions in the
senate, where there is no actual majority
of Republicans, and where other ' than
Republican votes are necessary to pass
the bill. Members of tbe house are
standing by their bill .nevertheless, and
have told the senators they cannot
accept the sena'e amendments on many
important items.
Lumber has been in dispute. Mem
bers of the house committee insisted that I
their rate on white pine must be accept
ed, and have been supported by Senator
Burrows, of Michigan. The senate con
ferees say that if the house rate is re
stored it will provoke a long discussion
in the senate. The bouse conferees,
however, refused to accept even the rate
which was originally reported in the
senate bill, and stand for the bouse rate.
Burlaps, cotton ties and other items,
which were placed on the free list by tbe
senate met with great hostility from the
house conferees, and nothing in the way
of compromise offered by the senate
members has been accepted.
The house members have maintained
that tbe house bill has been commended
more than the senate bill, and that the
conference should get as close to it as
possible.
It is developed today that the wool
schedule had been under special consid
eration during the forenoon session, and
that the house members bad not shown
a disposition to hold on to the house
rates. There was evident apprehension
that if this concession were granted
there would be difficulty in getting the
bill through the senate.
There was also a harried conference
between Republican representatives at
the senate conference in regard to the
probable course of tbe Democrats in case
the articles which they were . especially
instrumental in having placed on the
tree list should be made dutiable. These
articles include cotton bagging, gunny
bags, burlaps, cotton ties, paris green,
floor matting, etc. The house insists
upon their restoration to the dutiable
list, and some of the senate conferees
are inclined to yield because of the rev
enue they would yield.
The conference with the Democrats
was by no means reassuring. The Re
publicans were told that if these changes
were made they (the Democrats) would
be disposed to insist upon a full expla
nation in committee and an elaborate
debate in the senate, which might in
definitely prolong the session. The re
sult of the inquiry as to the effect of tbe
restoration of the house rates was far
from reassuring. The problem is giv
ing the committee considerable concern.
The Mount Lebanon Shakers have re
cently perfected an : ingenious ' cure for
dyspepsia. Their Digestive Cordial con
sists of a food already digested and a
digester of foods happily combined.
The importance of this invention will
be appreciated when we realize whav a
Dronortlon of the cnmmnnir.v urn victim a

Thousands of pale thin, people have
little inclination to eat, and what they

corrects any stomach derangement aj.
once, it makes thin people plump.
