Relations Strained to a Point
of Rupture.
London, Aug- 27. The Peking cor
respondent of the Daily Mail sa3s:
The situation has became acute. Ths
relations between the t3unr-li-yaran
and Sir Claude McDonald, the British
minister, ae strained to the point of
rupture, sir (Jlaufle .McDonald has in
timated that any failure by China to
observe Great Britain's wishes will be
accented as a causus belli. In support
of Sir Claude McDonald, the fleet has
been con centra tad at Wei-Uai-Wei and
Hankow, and all the warships under
TiOllO tons have been mobilized in the
Yanrt.-e river. The naval demonstra
tion is solely directed against China,
as it is seiDi-omciiUly stated that the
existing relations with Russia are
cordial.
A special from Shanghai says:
Violent scenes are reported to have
occurred between Sir Claude Mc
Donald, the British minister, and M.
PavioiT. the Russian charge d'affaires,
owing to the latters commanding the
tsung-li yamen to revoke its agree
ment with the Hong Kong ban it ,
under pain of the czar's 9trong dis
pleasure. The Chinesoare inclined to
obey M. Pavloff, seeing that the
British confine themselves to verbal
protests. 1 he position is now worse
than ever. All tbe Russian ships h ive
returned to Port Arthur, while the
British vessels are assembling at Wei-Hai-Wei
and Clu o Foo. Extrem-j ac
tiyity prevails ashore at Port Arthur.
All the information obtainable tends
to show that the dispatches sent to
London from Now York confirming J
yesterday's cablegram that P2:igkind
has been pi'epiring for a naval demon-
stration in tho event of grave Amrlo-
Russian coinolications. are mereh- !
gossip.
EXPLOSION AT SA.
Stirkeen Chief Undoubtedly Lost

With
Sax Francisco, Aug. 26. News has '
been received here confirming the re- !
ported loss of the stern-wheeler Stick
een Chief,
A letter received from Juneau dated
August 10, brines the confirmatory
news, and -further ay3"thattho disas
ter was doubtless caused by an explo
sion, anu trat tuo crew and passen
gers, numbering 43 persons, were un
doubtedly lost. The Dora saved a dog
hich was found floating on a piece of
wreckage.
Thar, it was an explosion that caused
the loss is inferred by the Dora's crew
from the fact that most of the wreck
age was broken into small bits.
Tue wreckage was found on Aug. 4.

Wounded by Natives.
Manila. Aus. 2. Last Wednesday
a corporal and two men of battery B,
Ctah artillery, after disembarking at
Cavite, were sent on an errand. While
passing through the streets, Trooper
Hudson discharged his revolver. It
was in mere fun, but the natives in tbe
immediate locality were much alarmed
for a time.
The natives immediately began fir

sent to queil the disturbance, but the
natives misunderstood the movement,
and the firing became general.
Trooper Hudson was killed, and
Corporal Anderson mortally wounded.

Iiivitos i he Military Powers
to a' Conference.
St. Pkt nnsiiURG, "Aug. 29. By
order of Eiiiperor -Nicholas, Count
Murayieff, the foreign minister, on
the 22 J, handed to the foreign "diplo
mats at St. Petersburg a note declar
ing that the maintenance of peace and
the reduction of the . excessive arma
ments now crushing all nateii: f?
hej
ideal for ft-bioh all governments ought
to strive.
The czar considers the presr.nt
moment favorable for the inaugural ii n
of a movement looking to this em;,
and invites the powers to take part in
an international conference as a means
of thus insuring real and lasting peace
and terminating the progressive in
crease of armament.
ENGLISH I'liKSS COMMRNT.
The Proposition Get orally Viewed as Im
practicable.
LONDON, Aug. 29. The Daily
Graphic this morning, referring to the
proposal of Emperor Nicholrs, says:
"It would be idle o attempt to
ignore the many and grave difficulties
standing in tbe way of the attainment
of the czar's wishes; but it cannot be
possible to doubt the sincerity of the
magnanimous proposal."
The Standard says, speaking editor
ially of the czar's proposal:
''In England, at least respect and
sympathy will be felt for the proposal.
It is a conception well worthy of the
young soverergn. It is plainly obvious
that there are erormous difficulties to
be overcome which it is possible the
czar, in his ardor .and humane enthu
siasra, has not maturely considered.
It is a vision which has occurred to
many minds, but had always to be dis.
missed as a mere dream.
leath of Governor Matthews.
Ingale, Ind., Aug. 28. At 6:30
o'clock this morning, at the quiet
Meharry homesterd, where he was
taken immediately after his sudden
afhiciio:i, ex-Governor Claude Mat
thews passed away peacefully, sur
rounded by his wife and all the other
members of his immediate family
There was a prayer service, accoui
panied by the singing of hymos, at the
bedside of the dying ex -governor. .
Mrs. Matthews was very much affect'
ed, and stated that she would give
anything in the world if her husband
would manifest, by a single word, his
faith in Jesus. About 3 o'clock, the
minister, in the course of services
asked the dying man if he believed in
Jesus. The answer was as plain a
any one could articulate. It was
"Yes."
The three physicians regardjd this
as miraculous, as all agreed that the
particular brain affected by paralysis
was that governing the speech, and
the governor would have probably
never talked had be lived. It was the
only word he spoke after he was
stricken.
TO AS-L'.ME FULL CONTROL.
Cuba aud Porto Rico Will Be Governed Like
Santiago and the Philippines.
Washington, Aug, 29. Instruo
tions to the Cuban and Porto Rican
military commissioners were approved
by the president before he left Wash
ington. They will not be mads public,
but are known to be the same as given
Shafter regarding Santiago and Mer
ritt as to the Philippinee.
This will mean that the military
commission will take control of Cuba
and Porto Rico tho same as the mili
tary governor now controls the por
tion of Cuba surrendered to the United
States after the Santiago campaign.
Many minor details relative to the
evacuation of the islands are left to
the commission which will report any
difficulty of disputed points to Wash
ington.
There has been doubt that the
United States would take control of
Cuba, but instructions Wt-b Ouuao
military copfm'on settles any ques
tion regarding that island, and means
t,0tt for the present at least, the
i niced States will assume the goyern
ment and control of the remainder of
tbe island, as has been the case in
Santiago.
An order has been issue I at the
navy department detachingSchley from
command of the second squadron of
the North Atlantic fleet, and ordering-
him to Porto Rico as a member of the
evacuation commission during which
time he is authorized to fly his flag on
the cruiser New Orleans, which will re
main in those waters until the com
mission is ready to return to tbe
United States. The order for Schley
to fly his flag on the Na Orleans is
made in order to keep him construc
tively ou sea duty while serving on
tbe evacuation commission thus en
abling him to receive pay accjrding
to his rank, $6000 per annum.
The CubaD commission will sail
from New York next Sunday on the
cruiser Resolute, which will proceed
direct to Havana.
Conflict Imminent
London, Aug. 29. A special dis
patch from Shanghai says it is stated
that the Chinese minister at St.
Petersburg has reported to his gov
ernment that in his opinion the
Chinese question will precipitate a
conflict between Great Britan and
Russia.
This state of affairs, he says, is. tbe
result of the British ambassador
having presented a note at St. Peters
burg of such a peremptory nature, de
manding freedom of enterprise in
regions where iiussiao Influence . is
supposed to predominate, that Count

Misunderstanding May Cause
Trouble at Manila.
London, Aug. 29. A dispatch from
ManiU to a news agency, dated August
9:Y ria Vlftncr Ifrtrtt rt,T.,n on.,.-..
"The friction bttween the Ameri-
ca'is and natives requires exceptional
ability to avoid total alienation. I
find that several bigh American offi
cials, of mediocre education, are
utterly unacquainted with Oriental
ideas, aud unable to understand the
primitive races. Most of the Ameri
cans are deficient in patience, and
numerous trifling misunderstandings
intensify the friction.
I believe the
Americans too hard. The American
censor absolutely prohibits the send
ing of a single word about the Cavite
incident of yesterday, and he threatens
to expel any co-respondent who men
tions it.
A deputation from the press is going
to General Merritt to protest against
his action. The affair began in a
drunken American shooting, and
natives sentries tried to shoot him. In
consequence of the melee four natives
and one American were killed, and it
is now generally misreported as being
a deliberate inauguration of hostilities.
General Merritt returned their arms
to the company of natives who fired
upon the Americans, presumably In
advertently. The natives assert that
Aguinaldo forced General Merrit to
liberate them and return their
weaoon.
"The Americans condemj General
Merritt's conduct."
The same correspondent cables that
the Americans are only "partly patrol-
ing the town."

A" Unfair Attack,
The following printed on a email
slip of paper wasfou id posted in an
out building in this -city, and was
probably issued or circulated by the
I agent of some insurance, company as
an "argument" aealnst her beneficial
"A. O. U. W. getting weak. Mem-
bers getting old
"Average age of 63 deaths during
the past year, 68 years, 3 months and
8 days
"Average term of membership of 65
deaths past year, 10 years, 27 days."'
Good for old man, hard on tho
younger.
"'Eleven hundred and thirteen sus
pensions for non-payment of due9 dur
ing past two years.
"Net gain in membership past year
onlv 14."
"Fourteen thousand dollars appro-
priated by grand lodge for aggressive
campaign the coming year."
These statements the oircular credits
to the grand lodge report for the ses
sion held in Portland last July. Then
lt comments thus: "Who pays the
Bill? Who gets the campaign? He
who thinks much learns much."
Such an attack as this upon an order
that has accomplished as much as has
the A. O. U- W. is unjust, and is not
only an attack upon this particular
order, but upon all like institutions.
Life insurance, no matter on what
plan, is a good thing. Perhaps the
old time companies are the solidest
and best, but they are, out of the reach
of many, their rates being too high for
the insured to meet. To this class the
fraternal societies offer insurance at
cost, and it is unbecoming to attack
them in an undermining way.

Ice Cream Poisoning.
C. V. Lincoln and Robert Dunn
were poisoned Sunday from eating ice
cream at the picnic at Ladd canyon.
They were taken sick in tbe afternoon
soon after they left the picnic grounds
and by tbe time they reached the
city they were suffering severely. Dr,
Bacon was summoned and antidotes
were administered, which brought
them around all right. It is supposed
the ice cream absorbed poison from
the tin vessel in which it was made.
One other young man whose name
could not be learned, residing in the
country, was also sick from eating the
cream. Ihere are probably others,
but these three are all who have been
heard from. La Grande Chronicle.

as near 88 possible by bringing to the

fection, and probably having a good
