TROUBLE IN CHINA

The London "Timesn published the
following from Shanghai on the morn
ing of the 9th: "The movement
against the foreign residents continues
in Human province. Among the rebel
chiefs are many Viceroys, Magistrates
and Generals. In fact, so tinctured
with this desperadoism is the entire
Government force that the authorities
seem unable to prevent the spread OF
the uprising and the progress of the
propaganda against foreigners"
The following is the text of a docu-
ment which has been everywhere dis
played on the walls:
g Let us, the inhabitants, who are
DESTROYS of preventing VIOLATION Oh
our country, prepare plan OF defense
so that every district may take up
arms and assemble it's forces. Every

men: every lesser district $4,000, and
every small province 10000. with
these let us chase from the provinces

that the disorders in Valparaiso or the
silence of his department should APP
pear as an expression of unfriendliness
towards the Government of the United
States, which might put in peril the
friendly relations between the two
countries.D
The most plausible history as to the
course that will be pursued by the
United States is that the suggestions
courteously and automatically con-
veyed in Acting Secretary Whartons
dispatch, that this government had
no doubt that investigation would be
made and reparation afforded, will
now be renewed in stern and formal
demand for some immediate assur-
ance of proper action on the part of
the Junta, and if these are not forth
coming that Minister Egan will take
passage on the Baltimore for the
United States, thus severing diplo-
matte relations between the United
States and Chile.
Under date of October 80, the New
York Herald correspondent sends the
following:
The Gillian authorities have ar
rested Demetrius Leiva, Carlos
Gomez and Jose Ahumada, three
Chileans who were implicated in the
assault ON the BaltimOre's men.
Gomez is deserter from the torpedo
boat Almirante Lynch.
I don't believe the junta officials
are influenced by public opinion in
their actions. / am satisfied that
their defiant bearing is caused by
their foolish ideas of superiority over
| the Americans. I know that certain
important men are opposed to the ac-
| tions of the Junta. It is probable that
the Junta will plead that they have
no power in the premises and will
| refer the whole matter to Congress,
which meets on November 10. George
Montt, I believe, is inclined to a
peaceful solution of.the question.
SANTIAGO, October 80. = United
States Minister Egan, Captain Schley
of the Baltimore and William 3. Nc
Creery, United States Minister at VAL
paraisO, were in close consultation
throughout the day, and though it is
not possible to obtain any definite
statement from them for publication
regarding the nature of the result OF
| their long deliberations, it can be said
they all consider the reply of the
| Junta to Minister Egan's note asking
for a proper explanation of the
Valparaiso collision as decidedly
| insulting to the United States
Government. It is also known that
they regard the situation at present as
serious. The reply of the Junta they
think, means practically that Chile is
indignant at the demands made by
the United States Government; that
she will take her own time to con-
slider the matter, and, when the Junta
reaches conclusion, that Government
will settle the matter without refer
ence to the views of the United
States on the subject. The reply
of the Junta, they further say,
fails to express any regret for the e
there in that document any express
sion of regret as to the conduct of the
police in using bayonets in arresting
the Baltimore's men. While the
United States officials here are justly
indignant, their indignation is as
nothing to that felt by American resi-
dents in Chile.

FIRE FROM OBJECTIVE FLUE.
Woman's Narrow Escape From Death
House and Furniture DAMAGED,

fire which almost destroyed the $500 resi-
dencs OF Alon 20 Jose. OF North Bend, and In
which Mrs. Charles Thompson nearly lost her
life, occurred at the corner OF Albert and Fifth
streets yesterday morning at Ii O'Clock.
short while before Mrs. Thompson went up
stairs TO make the beds. As she worked the
iaint smell of smoke reached the room. A
hotter fire than usual had been built. The
smoke grew denser, but Mrs. Thompson knew
that the kitchen stove occasionally smoked, and
felt no alarm. She went downstairs to see how
things were, and found the parlor sitting room
and. in fact, the lower portion OF the house
filled with dense smoke.
Alarmed at the situation, she rushed up stairs
to collect what few personal effects were handy,
and in doing so found Herself gaspins Cor breath.
She tried TO reach the door. but her strength
failed. Her senses were leaving her despite all
efforts TO reach the door. Just a. she had given
up all hope and had fallen upon the floor, the
front door was burst open and William Jensen
rushed up the stairs and stumbled upon the
PROSTATE form of the sufocating woman. Pick
ing her up, he rushed from the house and car
ried her to place OF safety. II required all tie
united efforts OF her friends to restore Mrs.
Thompson to her normal condition.
Before Jensen had rushed up stairs he had
sent q person 10 turn in an alarm from box 81
The call was answered promptly, but the box is
in the sag, and when the teams were directed
great obstacle. Engine No. : was stuck in the
mud and he horses transferred to chemical No

and begun work. Hose wagons Nos. l, . and 4
managed to make the place, and in q short time
the fire was under control.
The house was well constructed, and valued
at s., 500; loss about $3.50. The principal loss
falls upon Mrs. Thompson, who had furnished
the house, twelve rooms in ali, throughout
Ali of the furniture was valuable, and several
of the sets were OF antique oak. In addition TO
this there were several large cases of household
goods, which Mrs. Thompson had brought from
the East but never unpacked. In the basement
were number OF oil paintings OF considerable
value, and intended as wedding present for 5
niece OF Mrs. Thompson.
So clean did the flames sweep the place that
Mrs. Thompson is LETT without clothing other
wise than that she had on when rescued. She
places her loss AZ $3.50, insured IN the Cascade
Fire and Marine Insurance Company for $500.

A CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE.
King County VIII Present Democratic

II Is becoming apparent that the Democrats OF
King county are on the eve of frst-eiass fac
tional fight. George Hazard, OF Tacoma, The
secretary of the Democratic state committee,
who ha. been lowering about like white
winged dove of peace for the past week, fut-
tered into the Rainier hotel again sunday
night. Last evening he remarked, with an air
of deep melancholy: "Within a week promi-
Dent Democrat OF this county will he an
nounced as a candidate for congress-" Further
Nj Hazard said nothing.
II is well known that the select coterte OF
party leaders in the state has fixed up the fol-
lowing ticket: Governor, C. H. Warner, OF
Colfax: lieutenant governor, Senator Henry
Drum, OF Tacoma; congressman from Eastern
Washington, W. NJ. Goldman, of Dayton; con-
gresham from Western Washington, some King
county man. Evidently the prominent Demo
crat'' TO whom Mr.. Hazard refers is this King
county man al present unknown. Colonel
James Hamilton Lewis, however, announces
boldly that he proposes to break this slate by
trying to secure for himself the nomination for
governor; and the colonsPs friends are already
putting on their war paint So every indication
points 10 a sharp struggle between the ''promin-
ent Democrat" and James Hamilton Lewis.

The City Wharf Teredo-Proof.

The Oregon improvement Company yesterday
ordered sufficient p. & B. pile covering to pro-
tect the piles of the City wharf from the attacks
OF the teredo; the work will be done at once.
During the last three months no less than
25,7ei yards OF this covering have been used in
Seattle by the Oregon Improvement Company,
the Great Northern Railroad Company. the San
Francisco Bridge Company and the Seattle,
Lake Shore & Eastern Railroad Company, and
the agents, II. l.. Outline & Co., have several
more orders to fill in the immediate future.
Our representative read the following letters.
both dated October, 1891, and thinking they
would prove of interest to wharf owners, oh
tanned permission to publish them. The first
from Thomas Thompson & Co, wharf and
bridge builders OF san Francisco, reads as fol-
lows:

that locality the average duration of an unpro-

Tho Size of Hats.

hats, are growing smaller. have no.
ticed it year by year in my business,
and where 1-2 or "a hat formerly
was not miracle, today the average
hat is 2, and it is seldom we have a
call for 2 IA. However, there is a
reason for this. Besides the custom of
wearing the hat perched ON the corner
of the ear, it must also be admitted
that almost all of the men wear their
hair closely cropped nowadays, and
this makes great difference. / don't
believe peoples heads are growing
smaller. l lUar.j III.
I'm olden times the men generally
wore long, bushy hair, and drew their
hats down so that they always left a
mark on the locks. Another thing
worthy of notice is that hats of English

American hats. A 6 "a hat of English
make equals 6 7,S hat of American
