The parade of the premium oiaes was something grand, there being in line tiie largest number of ine horses ever exhibited at any fair in Oregon. In the after- noot. though not raining, it was cool and cloudy. The track was in good condition and the races largely attended. lnrpite ot tiie rain, wiucu leii all die morning and almost to noon, this was about as big a rri dav at the state fair as was Friday of last year, which was the best in the history of the fair. The at .,.:! tn-ilnv were hut liitle b- - --r . short of those on die same day last year. Had it not been lor the threatening weather, this would hare leen a larger day than last, Already the gats receipts for the week are almost as large as those for th entire six days last year.

WAR SPIRIT IN CHINA THAT COUNTRY ON TUB EVE OF A It EVOLUTION, Freah Tales of Devastation and turning; of the Missions-Butch ery of Englishmen. Nearly a year ago, save a Shang hai corieapoiident of the London Telegraph, your readers were in formed of the probable approach of serious revolutionary movements in China, when Eoine of the ditli culties which beset the young em peror were described. Lat-r still. hen t lie viceroy 1 sen got JNanking died, thd danger of the numerous secret societies, which permeate the heart of the empire, breaking into open rebellion, was dwelt upen as a much nearer contingency the forecast, which many people thought rashly made on my part, has proved, 1 am Forry to say only too correct, and just now China is, in the consensus of the bet-t opinion, both native and foreign, on tbe eve of something like another Taiping rebellion. We are passing through an excit ing period and tbe whole ol the center of the country is in a regu lar fement. All the northern treaty ports are guarded by foreign men-of-v.ar, and sailors and marines, trench , American and German with Gat tling guns, have landed already in one port Kin-kiang. Warships of Russia, France, Spain and Eng land are being callel to the Yang tse station from all sides, and the air is disturbed with talk of mili tary and nayal operations, rebel- in, murders and such topics, '.iiiiness is almost at a standstill etween this an. I the five great ports on the nver Jobang, Hangkow, Wuhu. Kinkiang and L'hin-kiang. In Shanghai prepir- ttions are being made on all sides jr defense, volunteers are con stantly drilling, and generally the state of affairs recalls the stirring days of the early sixties, when the rebellion was in progress. Ihe Ecglieh and American missionaries are coming in from all the outly ing stations, and every day brings some fresh tale of devastation by the Kolao-hwet, the regular des cendants and successors of the Tai pings. English aaeu have been butchered with circumetances oi horrible atrocity. In fact, the im perial palace and the Mauchu and oyal Chinese ministers of the em peror are in a panic at the extent of the present snovetnent and are afraid to attempt to interfere with the preliminary programme which the Kelao-hwel have arranged lest their action should precipitate matters. Ten or twelve French missions bave been burned along the Yang tse, and the value of property destroyed aggregates several million dt liars. But, so far aa is known no i rench mission ary has been hurt, because me French naval authorities iook ex tremely vigorous measures and threatened to bombard Nanking and other towns on the river if eventa justified, in the mind of tbe captains of the French men-of-war. such a proceeding, in Mianghai almost all business is suspended. Meetings of the foreign residents, except the British, have been held under the leadership of their consuls, and new German and French volunteer corps enrolled for the protection of the settle ment. The ordinary volunteers are under arms and drill constant ly, and arrangements made for the placing of the women and children in places of safety in the event o tbe outbreak, which is rw DETECTIVE DICTATOR Sullivan Thinks He Can Run Bus iness on His Own Idea. HOLDS CHANDLER ALOFF. Blustsu Abstt BisPsvsri Has to Walt For a Kiqaiiittoa a Bsrly Dor it tks Halfar- Portland, Sept. 18. rOn tbe Southern Pacific Overland train which arrived in this city thir morning, came the man Chandlei who was implicated with Edward Albertson, the cashier of tbe Fidelity bank of Tacoma, in the recent robbery of the securities o that institution. He was in charge of an officer, and was accompanied ny u. u. lves, one oi M. C. eulli van's men. Sullivan is the i ager of ibiel's detective agency in this city and has gained a great deal ol unenviable notoriety for his conduct on the Sound recently, Tbe party got into a hack and was driven to Sullivan's office in the Labbe building on Washington street. Here a Telegram representative called upon Mr. Sullivan and courteously asked to be allowed to have a few words with Mr. Chand ler, or with one of the arresting officers. Sullivan first denied that he knew anything about Chandler, and said he supposed that the officer had taken him through to Tacoma. When told that tbe re porter knew different, and that Chandler was in tbe office at that moment, Sullivan came down off his high fioree, and said the man was very sick and did not want to be eeen. "Then," said the reporter, "let me talk with the officers. This is an important case, and the public are anxious to know about it. "No, sir," said the would-be dictator, "the public can go to hell and the newspapers be d d. Tbe public don't need to know any thing about this. This ia my busi ness, and I don't tell anybody my business." The reporter told bim there was no need of getting mad about the affair; the people aim ply wanted tbe news. Sullivan then blustered about like a mad bull, telling hew he had worked up the case. He finally cooled down, and said he would think it over. Tbe reporter called again and Sullivan told him a long string of fulsome praise tor himself, hut would not allow him to see Chandler, who remains locked ' up in the private office of this bulldozing detective, who imagines that he has more authority than the governor of the state. He dared not railroad Chandler through to Tacoma with out a requisition, and this 18 the reason for Chandler's present de tention in this city. Report of the Beat Commissioners Chicago. Sept. 18.

Judge Ross, in the circuit court to-day, accepted a proposition for the re lease of tbe Itata. Captain Mi guel Tijada, the military com mander ot the itata, to day niea an affidavit claiming that his ves sel was being put to great expense. Judge Ross beard the matter in chambers and agreed to release the vessel after her value had been agreed upon by appraisers and a bond furnished.

All parties interested agreed last Monday to continue the trial ot the criminal actions to a future date, which was not named. Yes terday, however, tbe attorneys representing the present Chilian government were instructed to use their utmost endeavors to pro cure a release oi the vessel ana cargo on ban, and te mane ar rangements for an early trial. The Chilian authorities refused to re nounce all claims against the United States. An answer was tiled at San Francisco, praying for tbe delivery of the vessel to Ti jada. Attorneys representing tbe United States ottered to permit the release of the Itata on $100,- 000 bail, and the cargo on $76,000. rhis proposition was declined upon the ground that the sum ex acted was too large, and an appli cation was made to Judge Ross to appoint appraisers to fix the value of the vessel and cargo.
