Washington, Aug. 2 A telegram re
ce:ved at tde Japanese legation says tb
Cuinese government baa do ified Japan
that the Cr.ioese miDiiter at Tokio and
tbe consuls throughout Japan would be
witlitlrawn August 7. In consequence ot
this, the Jap-tneae go'ornment notified
its charge d'atturea at Peking and its
consuls tbroagnout China to withdraw
No lormal statement thut a state of war
exists between China and Japan bas as
yet been communicated to tbe Japanese
legation bere. It is said that if such
communication is made to this govern
irjent it will come from the United States
minister at Tokio. The Corean legation
officials at this camtni nave been trvin
to communicate witb their government,
but without avail. The last attempt was
la tbe Chinese land line, but tbe tele
graph company returned their message,
with tbe statement that it was refused bv
tbe Chinese administration on tbe ground
that it was In toe code.
Secretary Gresh nn this evening receiver!
the following cablegram from Mr. Den-
by. secretary ot tbe legation at Peking,
China:
"The Japanese minister has taken bis
leave, and war has been declared."
This Is the first intelligence received at
tbe state department from our represent
ative iu Cbiua. Charles Denbv. jr.. is in
charge of tbe United States legation there
iiunug the absence of bis father, tbe
United States, mmi.ter, who is now in
tins country. The cablegram's statement
that "ar bag been declared" is oresumed
to mean that Japan bas declared war up
on China, ana that being the case, the
Japanese minister at once withdrew from
the Chinese capital. The meagernecs of
the dispatch is disappointing, throwing
no light wbetever on the recent nayal en
gagements between tbe two countries,
prior to tne formal declaration of war.

Omaha, Aug. 2 Tbe report that the
secretary ot war has retnittsd the unex
pired part of tbe sentence in tbe case of
Private Cedaiquist. at Frt Omaba, who
was scntanced to fine and imprisonment
tor refusing to eng&ge in Sunday target
practice is provoking some warm discus
sion in western army circles, uenerai
Brooke was- seen in regard to the action
t the secretary of war. He said that the
cial order in the Cedrqnist case did
not agree with tbe press report, roe of
ficial order, which was dated yesterday,
and signed by Adjutant General Buggies,
was addressed to tbe department general
of the department of the Platte, and
read :
The nneipiied portion ot the sentence
awarded Private Cedarquist, promulgated
in tbe general court-martial order No 45,
urrect series, trom your headquarters, is
his day remitted by tbe president, and
ou will cauao tbe man to be released at
once. Tbis action, however, is not in
any way to be regarded as a justification
of the disobedience of order on tbe part
of tbe soldier. Tbe officers who ordtred
be target practice on Sunday, in viola -
ion of tbe orders ot President Lincoln,
given in novemoer, luoa, must oe
Drought- to trial lor bis disobedience ot

Tbe attorney who defended Cedar-
uint said: "Cedaiquist ret used to obey
Is superior officer, oecause by so doing
he would be violating one of our laws it

Washington ia also fortunate. Every in

About the Bailroada.
San Francisco, Aug. 4 VieeP si-
dent Stubbs, of tbe Southern Pacific, eats
relative to tbe arrangement between tbe
Oregon Railway & Navigation and tbe
Great Northern:
"The former has sirapiy given op one
big connection for another. The Oreat
Northern heretofore has not bad no road
nto Portland . It is now in position to
get into Portland, but tbe idea that it
will handle overland freights to San
Francisco to that point over tbe Oregon
Railway & Navigation Company's tracks
and thence by water in tbe Oregon Rail
way & Navigation Company' steamers
is absuid. Tbe Great Northern will stil'
perate its own line between Spokane
and Puget Sound, and if it want to ship
freight to San Fraucisco by water it will
o toby way of the Sound rather than by
way ot l-'ortland. 4 ao not Know wnat
tbe traffic arrangements are, but the
Great Northern most certainly pays its
pro-rata to the Uregon Railway & Nav-
gation Com pat y, ant it wonld be foolish
to abandon iu owl lines to Tacoma and
eattle tor the sake of supplying busi
ness to tbe O. R. & N. Co. The new
traffic arrangements will be a big advan
tage to the Southern Pacific, for tbe Great
Northern will now brma freight to Port-
and for shipment to San Francieco ovT
the Shasta route. I already bave a tele
gram from W. W. Finlev, general traffic
manager of tbe Great Northern, asking
me to agree to sucb an arasngemcnt.
We have assured Mr. Finley that our
ines are open to tbe Great Northern.
Mr. Goodman bas acquiesced to a plan on
behalf of tbe passenger department, and
Mr. Smurr, of the freight department,
has done likewise."

"It is reported that tbere has been an

ficial report of General Osbiwa, in com
mand of tbe Japanese troops in tbe re

a decisive victory. Tbe enemy's entrench
ment at Chelhon was captured and over
500 out of a total ot 2800 Chinese soldiers
killed 01 wounded. Our losses were five

cerning the administrative features pro
posed by t orn promise, and it is under
stood the conference bave been consider
ing their bearing npon the questions at
issue. The coal and iron ore qif slions
ii. ve been taken up. It is understood the
seuate conferrees have indicated a will

lime the fluty shall continue, but not
Itsser amount. They are understood to
be holding out for the terms of tbe bouie

ing a continuation Of at least a part ol
tbe sugar bounty for tbe present year
There is increased talk ot pressing a tree
sugar bill in case of tho-f ulure of the
tariff bill which is probably intended
largely to bring the Louisiana senator
into line.
When tbe tariff conferrees took a recess
for lunch today, tbe house conferrees
seemed to think an agreement was in
sight. The senate conferrees and those
senators with wbom'tbey advise and coo
suit, seemed to think tbe prospects not
so bright, and an ultimate disagreement
will be reported. It was also stated tbat
within the next two days a report ot
either agreement or disagreement must

.Washington, Aug. 6 Witb tbe ses
sion of congress drawing to a close, and
all attention likely to be concentrated
upon tbe tariff bill, it is not considered
probable tbe senate will act upon either
the Arizona or New Mexico state bill
betore tbe final adjournment. Tbis was
tbe understanding when the bills were
reported from the committee on terri
tories. Tbe dates of admission in the
case of Arizona and the constitutional
convention in tbe case of New Mexico
have been so deferred in the senate bills
that no change will be necessary iu case of
postponement. The provision in the Ari
zona bill is for admission August 1, 1895,
while tbe convention ia New Mexico is
not to meet until July 1, 1895 Gov
ernor Hughes is ot the opinion tbe bill
will have to be changed to provide for a
new constitution before it can pass the
senate. This opinion he bases upon the
opposition be fiada to exist in the senate
to the constitution adopted inv1891, on
account of tbe irrigation and silver pay
ment features.

Another, who bad summered witb bim

In leisuro time: "A right good fellow

Tis true, be liked bis ease; bat who does
not!
For me, give me tbe man that Horace
loved.
Wbo deemed it wise to fool when season
able."
A tiny one wbo olt bad found sreat store
Ot sweetmeats in bis band, and, prized
far less.
Great store of tenderness witbln bis heart:
Oh, won t he come and
see as any
moref
His surpliced pastor, bound to save bit
soul.
Balanced a bit by Inconsistencies
He thought be saw, in private 10 hit wife:
Alas, poor soul! if only be had grasped
That matter of tbe creed, and made as
sure I
But then 'his heart was right, and God
is good."
And one, a woman, wbo bad found bis

An all-protecting shelter through long
years.
Said caught, bat kissed tbo tokens be had
Mt.
And dreamt of heaven for his sake alone.
Meanwhile, what was this man, aad wbst

You ask, coofused by this Babel talk
Of bere and yonder, from his fellow-men; -
am as ignorant as any one
Whose speech you beard, aud -yet I
loved bim well.
Nay, hik me not: ask only God. He
knows.

Tbe O. R- & X. Co,
Major McNeil, tbe receiver of the O.
R, It. & N. Co. arrived in the city this
morning from the east. In a conversa
tion wfth bim a reporter ot tbe Times-
Mountainebb was informed that the
company intended to deal fairly with the
community, and appreciated tbe import
ance of their trade. Since the flood tbe
railroad had been at very heavy expense
in building the roadbed, and getting the
line in running order. Tbis has beea
accomplished at a heavy outlay, and as
tbe result ot untiring energy. Mr. Mc
Neil said during these hari times it was
incumbent on railroad companies, as well
as any other business, to practice tbe
most careful economy, and to do this the
O. It. & N. bas been forced to reduce
wages of employes; but the object of the
reduction bas been to give the farmers
better rates on tbe shipment of wheat.
The company understands its obligations
to the farmers, and will exert itsolt to
lulCll this. As it is dow managed the O.
R. & N. will not receive dictation from
Omaha, but the headquarters will be in
Portland, and the best interests of the
state will be consulted. The company
was not antagonistic to any local trans
portation scheme, but inteuded to enter
the field for the trade or the northwest,
and strain every effort to secure, and re
tain it. For several months before tbe
flood the receipts were not equal to tbe
expenditures, and not having any boat 00
tbe middle river daring the high water
was a very serious loss. Such mistakes
will not happen tn the future, as tbe
Baler was taken over the rapids contrary
to the advise of the officials iu Oregon, -wbo
were well satisfied of the Importance
of controlling Ihe navigation of the
Colombia. Nothing was said iu reler
ence to shops at this point, but Mr. Mc
Neil is a practical railroad man, and the
importance of their establishment ia
very apparent.
A Fraud,
A book-agent, wbo his canvassed tho
eity for "Milton's Paradise Lost" and
"Paradise Kegaioed," ha operated io
rather a questionable manner. He repra-
seated that tbe work wo 10 complete io
three volume, at $3 a volume, the book
coating 89, snd the payment were to be
maie monthly, at the rate ot 37 i oente a
week. Six montti waa tbe tima when the
full settlement wis to be mads. To closa
the bargain he gave two women a note to
siiin, which c tiled for $'27 instead of 9 a
sgretd. After procuring several note he
left town Saturday evening; bat before
leaving he tried to tell the note in the city
to innocent parties, bat they noalJ not''
purchase until they had een the original
drawir. Bock agents are in sufficient bad
reputation now without adding inch fraud
olent practice to the business.
Since the above was in type Mr. L J.
Normao inform us that the man's name
was J. Kelly, and that he left Saturday on
the afternoon train.
Grasshoppers.
Antelopa Hrrald.
' A gentleman just in trom Upper Trout
creek inform n that that section of coon
try was swept by myriad of grasshopper
the first of tbe week, tbey baviog eorae
from the sooth and sweepiog everything
before them. They were almost aa loon
thick 00 the ground and eomplt te'y rolocd
the train crops, garden truck and fruit on
the ranches of Alex Friend, Jim Htinilton,
3eo. McCoy and ethers. They were the
regular old fashioned Kansas grasshoppeis,
snd wen beaded io a northerly direction.
It is very hard to tell what it will terminals
in if they keep eooipar.y a rapidly as they
did on Saturday and Sunday. They haye
00 doubt taken possession of C. S. Mo
Corkle' ranoh by thi time.
