A CHANGE IN I'UIJLIC OPINION
Cmporor William's Intornat In Cuban
War Oparatlona Tha Qunatlon
of American Moat-
Borlin, Oct. 11. There ha been a
treat ohango In Gorman public opinion
on the subject of the retention of the
Philippine islands by the United
States. Tho feeling toward America
generully is much more favorable than
couple ol months ago. Hie news
from the United States that the govern
ment at Washington is seriously con
templating holding tho Philippines, is
commented upon dispassionately In
tho German press, and it is significant
that this week two papers of such
standing as tho Kolnisclio Zeitung and
the Vossiche Zeitung have published
long letter from Gorman merchant
settled in the Philippine islands, in
which American annexation is strongly
advocated. A correspondent of the
Vossiche Zeitung even vigorously com
bat Germany making any attempt to
secure a portion of the island, citing
weighty reasons therefor.
Another significant fact this week
wa that a delegation representing
German and German-Swiss firms in
the Philippine islands called at the
United States embassy to express hopes
that America would not relinquish
the islands and would not roturn them
to Spain, which the delegation claimed
would mean a recurrence of revolution,
and the perpetuation of commercial
troubles. The delegation also '
ked '
if it might go to Paris and lay its view
before the United State peace commis
sion. TJie United Statets ambassador
here, Mi. White, advised thf Jelega-
tlon not to do so.
Mr. White doe not anticipate tier
man Interference directly or Indirectly,
even if the United State insists ' upon
retaining the whole of the archipelago.
Councillor Schwarzunley. formerly
of the Geiman embassy at Washington,
declares that Germany doe not dream
of putting obstacle in Amerioa'l way.
Mr. White had a long conference on
Wednesday last with the German min
ister of foreign affairs, Baron von Bue
low. The imperial government last win
ter, goaded by the agrarians, drew up
a bill to regulate tne inspection ox
American meat export. The bill prno
hii. m.ntth ath nf th. Am,l.
bill to regulate the Inspection of
can moat trade, and, luckily, it could
not be made ready for production In the
:..i.-.-.. Lj. .,h.
reichstag before that body adjourned.
Since then, the situation bag changed.
The charges againat American meats
have invariably proved to be groundless
so that the violent press attacks have
ceased. The government therefore ha
considerably modified the bill, which
is now much less stringent, but some
of its provision are still highly preju
dicial to canoed meats and sausages.
It is expectod that the measure will be
introduced into the reichstag soon aftei
its convening next month. The entire
right and a majority of the centrist
favor the measure, so it passage is vir
tually assured.
TWO CHILDREN K LED.
One Was Burned to Death, tha Othel

Pendleton, Or., Oct. 11. Saturday
afternoon some children were at play
in a barn owned by Sim Hutchinson, a

At 13:80 P. M., today, while a west
bound train on the Washington & Co
lumbia River railroad was coming
lound a curve at a point about five
miles east ot this city, it ran over a S-year-old

a farmer living at Mission. The child
liad wandered away from home, and in
attempting to cross the railroad tracks,

gineer did not see tne ttoy until too
close to stop the traiii in time to pre

St. Paul, Minn., Oct. 10. Opinions
filler as to the present status of the
troubles witli the Leech Lake Indians,
but even though nothing more follows,
tnough haa happened to cauae North
western settlers to feul somewhat unset
tled ill their homes for some time to
iome. There is something of a panic
in most of the email settlements near
Walker, it being the center of the
Leech Lake district, and the men in
the lumber camps in that vicinity have
quit work and are either in or on their
way to Walker.
Governor Clough will send a battery
of aitillery of the National Guard to
Cass lake in the morning, to protect
the residents of that locality.

other trip, such aa that made to Sugar
Point, where the battle was fought,
tnd not unlikely with the same result.
The military authorities are now pre
paring a plan of campaign.
GENERAL BACON'S REPORT.
Will Hold Hia Troop at Walker Await
ing Farther Developmenta.
Washington, Oct. 10. Reports re-
wived by the officials of the war and
die interior departments from the Li
lian outbreak are of a reassuring char
tuter tonight, and they now feel that
he uprising may be regarded as over.
3eneral Bacon, who has charge of
.Hairs in the department of which he
in command, will remain at Walker
tor the present, and this, it is hoped,
will have a quieting effect on the citi-
ten of the surrounding country, who
have felt that they were in dangei from
the redskins..
General Coruin tonight said there
was no basis lor the report tnni two
troops of cavalry on their way to Ilnnts-
ville, Ala., from North Dakota, had
been ordered to Walker, General
Bacon's telegram showing he was not
in need of leinforceraents.
The following is General Bacon's
latest dispatch:
Walker, Minn., Oct 10. Arrived
here at noon with my detachment In
good condition. The killed and badly
wounded have been snipped to f ort
Snelling this morning. The Indians
have been badly whipped, and left tha
country adjacent to the tight. En
route hero, other Chippewa bands die
olaved white flaes along the lake shore.
there ia much talk here of a general
Indian outbreak. Will ascertain faots
ind report later. Found Colonel Oar
bach at this place with 200 men, Third
infantry. Will remain myself and keep
troops here awaiting developments.
Regret exaggerated reports published,
resulting fiom my inability to com
municate. Have been in no danger of
massacre and ceed no reinforcements.
Colonel Uarbach's coming was in good
time."
The following reassuring dispatch
was received tonight by Indian Com'
missioner Jones from Gue Bel Cu, I
well-known Chippewa Indian, who lias
transacted considerable business for
that department and in Washington
"Walkor, Minn., Oct. 10. Not more
than 25 or 80 Indians engaged in the
outbreak. Chief Gaywuche Waybinnng
and Machecnh Bow. both ol Bear
island, and Wahbununnec, ot Leech
Like tillage, are doimr all in their
rower to suppress the outbreak. Chief
Flat Mouth arrived at Leech Lake vil
lace today with a large number of fol
lowers, and is strongly oppoaed to tho
outbreak."
Tho authorities bolieve the troop
now available in the viicnity are suffi
cient to quell the uprising, as the fight
ing force on the little island can scarce
ly number over 150 or 200, and they
believe there is little danger of rein
forcement from neighboring Indians.
The following dispatches bearing oo
the Indian trouble have been received
at tho war department:
"St. Paul, Oct. 10. Adjutant-General,
Washington! An offloial dispatch
from Walker announces that six bodies
and 11 wounded will arrive in St. Paul

surveying party in command ot Cap
tain Pratt, which has been surveying
the mouth of the Yukon, has returned
to St. iux.-eU. Captain Pratt says

mouth of the Yukon tor large ships
is a mvth. although the party surveyed ,
an eight-foot course through the Kisa-
linok channel. ... , '
Only two survey parties remain to bo
heard from, namely, the Eld ridge and
the Bpurr parties. Both went in by
way of Cook inlet and np the Snshrtna
river, Spurr's party branching off and
going over Kuskokwin. These two par
ties are expected within a short time.
There were no signs of ice in the Yu
kon op to September 25. The Indians
predicted a late fall, and it is believnd"
that all the up-river boats above Weaxe
will teach their destinations. The re
ported riches of Colovln bay continue,
and people are leaving St Michaels
every day in small boats.
REPORTS WERE EXAGGERATED.
Btata Department Has Iaformatioa That
tho Emperor la Mot Dead.
Washington, Oct. 8. Suoh informa
tion as has reached the state depart
ment respecting the reported - death
and asassinatlon of the emperor of
China goes to entirely discredit the
theories that he has been poisoned or
that he is dead. It is not possible to
say positively just what sources of in
formation are available, but it is known
that they are regarded as entirely le
liable by the state department.
Moreover, the situation in China is
not believed by the department officials
to be as serious as represented, and a
signal mark of confidence is the deci
sion not to follow the course of certain
European governments in sending at
this time a forco of soldier or marines
to Peking.
The Boston, one ot the two Ameri
can warships ordered to get as near aa
possible to the disturbance, will go as
far as the Taku forts, at the mouth of
the Pei Ho river, where she must atop
on account of her draught. The little
gunboat Petrel, however, ia expected
to go 80 miles np the river to Tien
Tsin, and her steam launch might pro
ceed from that point as far as Peking,
if necessary.
