TACOMA, March 22.-[Special. IL. 7.
Redman, of Reese, Crandall & Redman,
commission merchants. returned today
from q visit TO Walla Walla, the effect of
which he hopes VIII be an immense bene-
tit to Tacoma and other Sound cities in
stimulating the fruit industry. w. d.
Taylor arranged meeting of producers
and dealers in and about Waila Walla, and
Mr.. Redman addressed them, saying that
Western Washington wanted their fruit,
as the product of California was not only
inferior, but detriment to the state. At
present it is impossible to handle
Eastern Washin gton fruit owing to the
high railroad tariff. Mr. Redman
thought the united action of fruit hand
lers East and West could prevail on the
Northern Pacific to reduce rates so as to
enable fresh fruit grown in this state to be
sold here and not allowed to rot on the
ground and trees. Mr.. Redman told
them that the Commercial Club, of Ia
coma, was using its influence in the inter-
ests of fruit growers. Messrs. Ofner &
Smith, of Walla Wa.la. have organized a
company, and when the season opens.
fruit will be shipped daily to Tacoms, on
the passenger train leaving Pasco at 6 in
the evening and reaching Tacoma the next
morning

THE MURDER OF ROBINSON.
American d nd British Residents of Yo-

V1croRrA, b. c., March 22.-[Special. i

eringtor.- Robinson matter is contained in

The latter says that since the affray the
American and British colonies in Yoke
hama have taken sides, the Britishers con-
tending that Hetherington' action was
foul murder while the Americans uphold
their countryman and say he was simply
ayenging his honor. This has brought the
matter to a serious crisis between the repre-
sentatives of the two nations in the Japan
csc city, and every day before Calvert left
things were getting warmer. 1t fact, the
feud had so far progressed that even
business relations where the matter might
naturally be supposed TO be forgotten, are
badly strained. Calvert expects that I'M
less something happens to avert general
animosity the feud will be difficult to ter
inmate, and it may have lasting effects.
Commander Woods, who, of course.
takes the opposite standpoint, is still in
accord with all that Calvert says regarding
the existing feeling and states that mat
tiers are really getting very touehy. Even
old friendships, the growth of twenty
years residence in Japan of Britishers
and Americans, have given place to the
bitterest feeling, and business IS seriously
affected by that quarrel. while in naval
circles the feud has spread beyond the
Japanese ports south TO Chinese waters,
where British and United States officers
are metaphorically at daggers' points over
the unfortunate affair

TRADE WITH CANADA.
What Mr.. Blaine Told the
Dominion Commissioners.
WANTS AN EVEN EXCHANGE.
United States Goods Must Be Admitted
Free, While Those OF the Mother
Country Arc Excluded.

OTTAWA, March 22.-In the commons to-
night Foster made his budget speech. The
most interesting point was trade relations
with the United States. He said that dur
ing the recent visit of Canadian ministers
to Washington City they had offered Sec
rotary Blame full and free reciprocity on
all products. Secretary Blaine and Gen.
eral Foster, after consideration, said
it had been made a sine qua non
on the part of the United States
during all the negotiations for reciprocity
that not only the natural products, but
the manufactured articles of each country
should be put upon the most favored ma
ton principle, and in the case of Canada
it would be especially necessary for the
United States manufacturers to be pro-
tected against Great Britain's competition,
as that nation was the United States great
and almost only competitor. The
Canadian minister replied that they
could not discriminate against the mother
country and suggested a return to
the natural product" reciprocity treaty
of 1854. After further consultation Mr..
Blaine saw no way out of the dilemma
but making Canada's tariff uniform with
that of the United States. 1t was evil
for the Canadian government to make
her tariff coincide with that of the United
States.
1t was useless for Canada to try any
other plan of reciprocity than that laid
down by Blaine. 1t was evident that any
scheme he would consent to would be chat
including manufactured as well as natural
products. IL might be well for the people
and the country that this matter was set
at rest. Let Canada for the future
have fair idea of what she had to do and
where to discriminate in doing it. Canada
had to meet market. Let her meet it in
a national market the market of Great
Britain. 1t might be in the near future in
this war of tariffs, which needed care and
attention, that Canada would have to
stretch out her hand to tine country that
helped her and give fair and preferential
treatment to Great Britain.

WASHINGTON Cry, March 22-The en-
tire session of the cabinet today was con-
sumed in consideration of the Bering sea
question, Lord Salisbury's reply to Secre-
tary Wharton's note insisting upon re-
newal of modus vivendi forming the basis
of the discussion. The utmost reticence
is maintained by members of the
cabinet, but it is believed Salisbury's
note is unsatisfactory, and his
reply to the main point not decisive.
There is also reason to believe he suggests
as condition precedent to any modus
vivendi that the United States should
obligate itself t. indemnify Canadian ves-
sci owners in the event the decision of
the arbitrators is against the United
States. 1t is said reply is now being
prepared in which this government will
stand firmly by 1t former position.

New YORK, March pa morning paper
affirms that these words were used by
Charles Mitchell in talk with reporter
yesterday:
Sullivan is nice chap, isn't he? He can't
fight little bit. He is big, fat stiff and
usher. John L. Sullivan is O good-for- o:hing
drunkard. He is afraid OF me, that's all there
is to that. Why did he not accept my PROPOSE
ton to fight me before the Olympic club at
New Orleans! oh, know the reason that he
funked from me. (rhe willy Englishman
winked significantly It's because he's afraid
of me. It's lie if they say didn't want to
fight him when we met on two occasions. He
is big, fat stiff and also knows he cannot lick
me. He took up Corbett, another fake, to have
an excuse not to meet me. They will never
meet, mind you. It's all piece of advertising.

FRIDAY HARBoR, March 22,-TSpecial. =
The steam launch Rover, Lieutenant 4,
Buhner in command, with a crew of three
men. is now stationed at this port to pa
troll the waters of the islands until the
completion of q new launch, now under
construction, is ready for service. This
new launch will be equipped with a rapid
firing Hotehkiss gun and be able to make
sixteen knots an hour. This will afford
the islands an efficient revenue service
and do much towards checking the
smuggling Of Cinnamon and opium via
our islands. The revenue cutter Wolcott
was in port yesterday and left supplies
and equipments for the Rover, and many
of our citizens improved the opportunity
10 inspect her.

CALCUTTA, March 22.--The revolt of the
Lushai tribe, who occupy the country east
of the Sonar river, in Northern Burmah,
is extending, and it is expected that its
suppression will entail extensive mill
tary operations. The trouble had its
origin in an order issued by
British civil officer. There have been
several encounters, in all of which the ma
tives were defeated with loss, but they are
not discouraged. and now come reports
that the Western Lushais are about to
join in the rising. Three hundred men of
the Bengal infantry have been sent from
Silibar to aid the force now in the field.

sMUGGLERs AT OLYMPIA.
Chinese and Opium Landed There by .
Steamer-Six Coolies Caught.


OLYMPIA, March 22.-TSpecial. In
spector Coblentz and Deputy Marshal Nc
Clelland arrested six Cinnamon here to-
night who are suspe cted of having been
smuggled in from Victoria. The officers
have information that on Sunday night
small Canadian steamer, hailing from Vic
toria and coming up the Sound by way of
the west passage, landed twenty-one con-
traband Cinnamon near this city. 1t is
believed that six of them have been passed
on to Portland, that the six arrested to-
night came in the party and that the re-
naming nire are in hiding here.
1t is also suspected that the boat brought
in cargo of opium. Recent revelations
indicate that Olympia has Of late been the
leading rendezvous for smugglers on the
Sound and that many landings of China
men and opium have been made here DUR
ing the past few months. Two weeks ago
the boat that arrived here on Sunday night
is said to have brought to this city about
twenty Cinnamon who have not yet been
discovered. There are more Cinnamon
now in Olympia than ever before. The
suspected steamer is thought to be either
at Tacoma or on her way to Victoria fo-
another load.
