Japan and Russia arc Assembling Fleets on Coast ol Corea. I Paris, Oct. 10—Official information received here shows that a formidable Russian fleet, comprising 90 warships of all classes, has left Port Arthur and has arrived at Ma Ran Pho, south of Corea, where the Jajianeae fleet has aleady arrived. The Russian ships have anchored within the Ma Ran Pho harbor, alongside the Japanese ships. Several brigades of Russian troops have been moved ta the Coria n coast and are now encamped on the border. Diplomatic negotiations are still pro ceeding at Tokio. These do not relate to the evacuation of Manchuria by the Russian troops, but to the future of Corea. Rev. Jease Kirke, who 1» a leader among the Klamath Indiana, was in Ashland recently and brought the first news that haa ¿sen given out in regard to tho recent council of tho Klamath Indians to take action in regard to the pushing of the claims of these Indians for reimbursement by congress in tha sum of a little over 2500,000 fcr lands I lost to the Indians by reason of errors in reservation boundaries. Tbo council was attended by 100 heads of Indian families and Kirke, Henry Jackson and William Crawford, all well-to-do members of tbo tribe, were elected to represent the Indians at tho National capital and were empow ered to employ counsel to further the claim from the government during the coming session of congress and one, or possibly all three of them, will go on to Washington in December. Resolutions were also passed against the state’s claim to swamp lands with in the reservation, which, it is said, if fronted, would throw 400 Indians out of allotments. MAILS ARB TOO SLOW.

London, Oct. 10.—The Japanese minister here, Baron Hayashi, today described the announcement made by the Ixindon Daily Mail's correspondent at Kobe, Japan, that Baron De Rosen, the Russian minister to Japan, had presented a note to the Japanem- gov ernment contending that Japan had no just right to intervene in the question of the evacuation of Manchuria, and characterizing the proposed partition of Corea between Ru—ia ami Japan a- l>e- ing “fantastical and unworthy of con sideration.” Regarding the report tlust the Russian fleet had arrived at Ma San Pho, Baron Hayashi remarked Ru—ia had only about 30 warships in the whole far east, and it would be a physical imj->—ibili- ty on account of coal and other supplies for them to remain at Ma San Pho. ft would tie the moat unlikely place for them to go to even if Russia contem plated hostilities, as it is within easy striking distance of Japan's strong naval base at Tsu, in the Straits of Corea. So far as Baron Hayashi knows, it would be equally unreasona ble for the Japanese to go to Ma San Pho. HAPPENINGS HERE IN OREGON Ex-Pestmaster General Teets a Peace ful End. Buffalo, Oct. 8.—Wilson 8. Bissell, ex-postmaster general, died at 10:15 o’clock last night. At about noon he sank into a deep sleep, and it was with difficulty that be was aroused at inter vals during the afternoon for nourish ment and medicine. The end came easily and peacefully. Dr. Dewitt Sherman, the physician, who has been attending him dm ing bis recent illness, and members of the family were at his bedside. Mr. Bissell suffered from complica tions thought to be akin to Bright a disease, although not well understood. Daring the latter part of his illness, numerous messages of inquiry were re ceived from ex-President Cleveland and members of tho cabinet in which Mr. Bisoeil served as postmaster gen eral. W. A.

'orkCity,” it Posse and Salt I»ke, Oct. 12.—As a result of a well organized and partly successful at tempt at a wholesale delivery of prison ers at the Utah state penitentiary to night, one prisoner was killed, one guard was shot and wounded, another was beaten almost into insensibility, three prisoners were wounded, and two others under death sentence» escaped. None of those wounded, it is believed, are seriously hurt. A posse of prison guards with several bloodhounds was promptly started on the trail of the two escaped convicts, but owing to darkness and the wild nature of the country in the vicinity of the prison, no results are looked for tonight. The outbreak occurred about 6:30 p. m., just as the were being placed in their ie night by Guards Wilkins and Jacobs. The affair went through with such vim and pre cision that it must have been carefully planned beforehand. Two of the prisoners overpowered Wilkins and Jacobs, the former being shot anil slightly wounded and the lat ter frightfully beaten. The convicts took the prison keys from the guards and released five other prisonres, who had already been locked up. The seven prisoners then compelled Guard Wilkins, notwithstanding injuries, to march at their head and with the as sistance of ladders found near the workshop, proceeded to scale the wall. Wilkins was made to ascend first. As the first convict reached the top Guard Naylor, who was [on the south wall, opened fire. This was the signal for a general alarm, and several guards who were in the office quickly seized their guns and hastened to the scene. They arrived at the wall just as the prison ers were descending on the outside. Orders to halt not being obeyed a vol ley was fired, killing one of them and wounding three others. Two of the prisoners were armed with revolvers. RUSSIA TO STAY. Manchuria Is to Be Occupied Perma nently by Czar's Troips. Niu Chwang, Manchuria, Oct. 12.— The troops of the Russian garrison, headed by their band, playing national airs, parade<l the principal streets of the foreign and Uhine«- settlements to day, ostentatiously as though to em phasize the fact that the Russians are still tin- governors of this port. The civil administrator, M. Gros«-, today statol he had received no instructions regarding withdrawals. His assistants freely as«-rt that a jK-rmanent occupa tion is intended. In sjieaking with a consul who called to-lay to inquire re garding Russia’s intention the officials treated the question of evacuation as a joke. The «-heme of the maneuvers about Port Arthur is for the fleet ami army to prevent an attempt by a hostile army to effect a landinng from transports protected by a hostile fleet. The man euvers, occurring on the date that the other governments are looking for the evacuation of Manchuria, are regarded as significant ami |>erha]>s intended as an object-lesson to Japan of Russia's prepare>lness to meet invasion.
