WOULD ONLY BENEFIT The CZAR.
The Russian ExtraditiOn Treaty Discussed BY
Former Resident of the Empire.

NEW YORK, April IA lecture on the
Russian American treaty was delivered to-
night by Nioholos Aleimikoff, chairman of
the executive committee of the Russian
American National League. The lecturer.
who was q student at Kief. in southern
Russia, spoke of the treaty from both q
Russian and American standpoint. and es-
pecially of IT'S effect In relation to political
otfenses. The clause relating to political
offenses. he said. was of no benefit to this
country, but would only benefit the Car

his friends never b. ard of him again.
Schools in Russia were closed if it was
found that the teachings were more ad-

States TO aid In the barbar0us practices of
the Russian autocracy. which. it was

potism had created. The treaty was a

CATION into the methods of the Chinese at
this port. and on Puget sound. commenced
by Special Treasury Agent Noyes, is car
ried far enough. it is said some sensational
revelations will be made. Customs In
spector Todd. of Vancouver. B. c.. who ar
rived last night, says that the steamer
Haytian Republic has been carrying
large number of Chinese to Portland from
Vancouver on every trip. and that but a
small proportion has been sent back, until
the last trip. when thirty-seven were de-
ported. He says these Chinese all have
land and Salem. and that notaries and
lawyers IN the two cities are
in the business of furnishing them.
Cinnamon send their photographs, which
are attached to bogus certificates. For
these certificates they pay $50. the Hay tian
Republic charges them $50 fare. and then
they have TO pay an agent $40 to see that
they get in all right. The Tacoma Ledger
this morning published O letter purporting
to be instructions from the Gin Wong Com
pany. of Hong Kong. to prominent persons
of Portland. instructing them how To
smugRle into the United States and take
care of sixty-seven Chinese who came over

The Relations Between the Brazilian and

New YORK, April 2-The Hersld's VAL
paraiso correspondent says: Comment
is being made upon the long visit to Chill
of q leading officer of the Brazilian army.
He is here ostenslbly studying the Chilian
army tactics. but the cordiality with which
he has been received and the ease with which
he gains information has led to the belief
that his real mission Is to sound the govern
ment on the subject of forming an alliance
between Brazil and Chill in the event the
former becomes involved in war
with Argentina. A war with Ar
gentIna 10 not improbable and Is not
far off. Judging from the insolent attitude
which the government of that republic has
assumed toward Brazil. She has given aid
to the revolutionists of Rio Grande do Sui,
ana IS imposing needless quarantine re-
strictions against Brazil. These and other
acts calculated 90 infiame the citizens OF
the two republics have not been without
result. The war feeling in both countries
is pronounced. 1t is stated thet the Bra
lillian government Is negotiating with tho
Armstrong; for the construction of war
ships of type similar to the cruiser Ninth
of July, which is being built for Argeu-
tina. Orders have also been given that
greater haste be exerted in shipping the

NEW EXPLOSIVE.

A Fatty Substance, of the Consistency OF
Frozen OIL, Tested in Germany.
BERLIN. April "A commission of srtil-
lery experts has been testing for several
days at the JueterborR, a new explosive
which is intended to replace. ultimately,
gunpowder in the German army. The ex.
plosive is q brown, fatty substance. of the
consistency of frozen oil when exposed in
ordinary temperature. 1t retains that con-
sistency up to 1872 Fahrenheit A shook
or q spark does not set it off. When used
in gune the explosion is obtained through
contact with another chemical compound.
The explosion is almost unaccompsnied by
smoke and the detona alton Is considerable.
The recoil Is very slight. even when the
heaviest charge has been used. The ex-
plosive does not heat the weapon sufficient.
ly to cause difficulties in the way of rapid
firing, and cartridges once used are easily
refilled. For the present rifle, model OF
1888. the new compound Is not available,
but if further tests be as satisfactory as the
recent Ones IL will be introduced generally
In the artillery branch of the service.
Four models of new army rifles having
many advantages over the rifle now in use
have passed successfully the trials of the
small arms in pspectors The inventor of all
four is DE-. Weiss. OF the Gera dynamite
