FRANCE AND CHINA.

LONDON, Sept. PA dispatch from
Paris to the Times says the reply to the
government of China to the memorandum
proposals of the French government for
the settlementof the Tonquin difficulty,
which were telegraphed to Pekin by Mar
quis Tzeng, have just been received. 1t is
said the response favors the theory of di7i-
sion and neutral zone in Tonquin. The
Times dispatch states it is not likely that
France will reply favorably to this coun-
ter proposition. Everything, however,
points to the ultimate favorable solution
of the question at issue, and there will be
friendly intervention solicited by both ma
tions.
LONDON, Sept. 2t.-The Times says:
sWe are convinced France Cannot obtain
Tonquln without war with China, but she
may have AMMAN, with full right to make
commercial settlements in Tonquin, with
out any further trouble. Until France
fairly grasps this we hardly see that any
opportunity exists for the friendly services

THE EFFECT 1T WILL HAVE.

President Colby, OF the N1Sco rSin central
Road on the Effect the Opening of the
Northern Pacific Will Have on the Trade
of milwaukee and Wisconsin,.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.
MILWAUKEE, Sept. A.-President G. L.
Colby, of the Wisconsin Central railroad,
who was one of the Willard exeursionists,
returned to the city last night snd was in
terviewed by reporter this morning con-
cerning his opinion of the influence which
the opening of the Northern Pacific rail-
road will exert upon the commerce o.
Milwaukee.
81 think" said Mr. Colby, 'that the
people of Milwaukee are going to have an
opportunity to reach new and very valu-
able markets. The possibilities of the
country far exceed my previous expecta-
tions. The country offers great induce
ments to business enterprise. l don't
know any reason why Milwaukee merchants
cannot avail themselves, just as we'll as
the merchants of Chicago and ST. Paul,
of the large trade which the settlement of
the Northern Pacific country will
open up. The merchants of Milwau
kee, of course, know best for themselves
what methods must be adopted by them to
secure this trade. I have no doubt there is
enterprise enough in this city to take ad-
vantage of all the opportunities which the
situation offers. The opening of the North
ern Pacific will give Milwaukee millers
better facilities for obtaining hard spring
wheat than they have ever had before at
their command. This will be especially
the case when the connection between
Ashland and Superior is completed. 1t will
enable them to secure all the wheat they
want without passing through Minneapolis
and st. Paul. The advantage is one which
will rebound to the benefit of all the mil
lers of the state as we'll as those of Mil
waukee."
sit has been suggested," remarked the
reported, that if favorable freight arrange
ments were made between the
Northern Pacific and Wisconsin Central it
might lead to restoration of Milwaukee's
gram trade. Have definite traffic arrange
ments between the two roads been compile
ted?''
''They have. I don't think, however,
the opening of the new route will cut much
of figure IN the respect to which You
refer. The restoration of grain trade to
| its former channels depends more upon
I the methods Of business in vogue in
Chicago and Milwaukee, which are better
| understood bytue commiGsionmercnant than
any one else. Ny impression is that
large proportion of the grain carried over
| the Northern Pacific will go east by water
over Lake Superior. At least four-ffths
of all the grain they ship now goes that
! way. "One thing is certain" remarked
! Mr.. Colby, closing the interview, "and
that is that the opening of the new road
will be an important advantage to the
state of Wisconsin in that it will furnish
great market Tor our lumber You can
ride nearly 1000 miles there without seeing
timber supplies of any consequence. The
country is being settled so rapidly it must
require vast amount of lumber immedi-
ately, and it seems to me that the forests
of Wisconsin can supply all wanted there
| for years to come"
