Looks Like a Deadlock.

WASHINGTON, July 30.-There had been no meeting of the Democratic oonferees on the tariff bill up to this morning since the adjournment on Saturday, and the Democratic managers on the part of the senate are as yet uninformed as to what will be the purport of the reply which the Democratic managers in behalf of the house will make in response to tho sen ates position that the conference must nc cept the senate bill.
 Having at the Saturday meeting made plain to the house members of the con ference why this demand on their part had to be made and why it should be accepted, the senators have since the adjournment on Saturday given very little attention to tariff affairs and say when spoken to that there is nothing for them to do until the house members make known their accept ance or rejection of the proposition.
 If 1t be accepted, they think the report can be made after brief conference; if re- jected, they say they see no reason for a long barley, as under the circumstances they cannot abate their demands without endangering the passage of the bill in the senate.
 The senate conferees have said to those of the house that to strike out the differ ential on sugar probably means the loss or eight votes in the senate and also that 1t Is equally important that coal and iron ore should remain in the bill as arranged In the sentate.
 It looks very much like deadlock un- less the house conferees yield, us there is no indication of any purpose on the part of the senators to do SO. The senate con ferees talk frankly about the situation and plant themselves firmly upon the proposi- tion that the sentiment in tho senate Is such that it must be the senate bill or no hill

A Story Lincoln Told Grant.

Chronologically the talk had come to Grants journey east to assume general command and his first meeting with Lincoln. "Did he give you his impress sion of Lincoln when he returned from that interview" asked.
 "Not exactly" answered Colonel Grant. "You see, was with him at the time"
 Tn Washington
 "Yes. In Washington and in the White House, with him and Lincoln. "
 Is it true that Lincoln quoted a story about Captain Bob Shorty and the Mackerel brigade from the Orpheus c. Kerr papers to your father at that meet; ing?" I asked.
 ''Very likely, though don't remem. Der. The story that do remember hear. ing him tell my father that day was about Jocko. Jocko was the commander of an army of monkeys in a monkey war, and he was always sure that if his tai was little longer he could end the monkey war. So he kept asking the au thorities of the monkey republic for more of tail They got other monkey tails and spliced them on his. His spliced tai got too long to drag after him, and they wound it around his body. Still he wanted more, and they wound his spliced tail about his shoulders. Finally it got so heavy that it broke his back. MT. Lincoln applied the story to the cases oi generals who were always calling fol more men and never did anything with them. '-McClure's Magazine.

Senators wavering.

WAsHINGToN, July 31.-For the first time since tho tariff bill has been in con ference there were signs of wavering in the strong line that has stood behind the senate bill Senate bill or no bill' had been repeated during the day, but less frequently and with less emphasis than heretofore.
 The only explanation for the brief con ferences is the fact that the house confer ees feel that the situation Is changing in their favor There are many reasons ad- vanced to show that this statement has good foundation.
 It is known that the malls and the tele- graph are bringing to the Democratic sen ators urgent appeals to pass bill which will not favor the trusts and which will be in line with the demands of the party platform. In fact, these requests upon the senators are inducements of the posi- ton of the president and the house in the main points of difference. That thcso telegrams arc having effect cannot be de- nied and have caused the senators who are most insistent upon the senate bill as regards coal. iron ore and sugar no little concern.

Why Does She Do Itr

Two men were standing on the post office crossing when a woman passed along.
 Did you see that lady offer us her pocketbook?" asked one, a we'll known justice.
 "Yes, !" said the other, "and if had been as hard up as I have been some times in my life think I should have taken it"
 ''I wouldn't blame you" answered the justice "It is constant source of wonder'to me why in this age of enlight- enment and woman suffrage our women don't learn some common sense. How would man look walking through the streets holding out his pocketbook to all he meetsy"
 five thought of scheme, said his friend. "Now that our ladies are wear ing vests the same as we do, why don't they carry car fare and loose change in one vest pocket and bills in the other2 Then they could dispense with the pock- etbook altogether.
 Well, know this, said the justice, "a man should never be convicted of stealing for taking lady's pocketbook on the street when she held it out to him. In these times such a temptation ought to condone the offense. 1t Is like offering premium on theft and makes every woman who practices 1t an aooes- sorry to crime "-Detroit Free Press.

Peking only II men of the 5000 aboard the Row Shing were saved The attitude of the Chinese government since it learn ed of the loss of the troopsbip has com pletely changed. Hitherto it has been k- clined to be conciliatory, but the indica- tions now are that she will pursue the war against Japan with the utmost vigor. Ii Hung Chang, the viceroy, in an inter- view st Tientsin recently, declared that If war were once provoked China would fight to the bitter end
 TIENTsIN, Aug. IA naval battle was fought between the Chinese and JaS- anese fleets The Japanese sank the Chi nese battleship Chen Yuen. and two large cruisers. supposed to be the vessels built for China by the Armstrong; were cap tured or destroyed by the Japanese.
 The Chen Yuen was built for China at the Ststtin works. She was a sister ship of the Ting Yuen and was the most pow erful warshlp in the Chinese navy with the exception of the Ting Yuen.

Prospects of an Agreement.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The prospects of an agreement on the tariff are much improved. For the first time in many days the house Democratic conferees came from the meeting with the statement that previous irreconcilable differences were In process of amicablo adjustment With much satisfaction the house members stated to their associates that the senators had shown disposition for the first time to meet the house half way.
 As to when full agreement would be perfected there was some difference of opinion. One house conferee said it would probably be this week. Another thought 1t would be soon.
 Chairnisn Wilson would not even admit that the understanding had gone far enough to warrant the prediction of a speedy report. He said, however, that the conferees had at least done business and made progress, which was more than could have been said of past meetings.

Japanese Reserves Called Upon.

YOKOHAMA, July 30.-An imperial edict has been issued calling out the army and navy reserves and ordering them to report forthwith at their respective headquarters.
 The Chinese residents of Japan are greatly alarmed at the threatening out look and are fleeing from the country in large numbers.
 At Tokyo the conviction is growing in official circles that the Chinese negotia- tions are simply pretext to gain time in order to allow China to concentrate her forces for the purpose of making a com bined attack on the Japanese.
 Reliable information has been received at Tokyo that the main body of the Chi nese army crossed the northeastern from tier of Korea on July 25. Further firing on Japanese ships on the Korean coast is reported.

the 17th of May did repeat the opera tion It came to be settled thing that no sooner did, mamma see me appear than she mechanically opened her arms to receive her daughter, crying, "Yes; l will marry Courtalin," and soon after, "No; I will notp' But the T will notP' became more and more rare.
 M. de Courtalin was a model of tact, of kindness and of resignation. He waited, always in black, always button ed, with inexhaustible patience. Mamma was invariably engaged with Mime. de Courtalin.
 At last the 17th of May arrived It was 6acitly understood that upon that evening I would say yes to the patient lover, and the engagement would be formally announced before all the world was restless all day and glad when II o'clock in the evening found mamma and me at the home of Mime. de Yer nieux, who was giving a great ball.
 As I entered I became suddenly aware that was the center of attraction. A line had formed itself on either side, and little ohsl of surprise and ahs! of ad- miration went deep into my heart
 M. de Courtalin came up to us. He wanted to ask my hand for all the waltzes, for all the quadrilles, for all the evening, for all my life.
 I answered.: Later on. Presently. feel little fatigued. ''
 My eyes roamed listfessly over the ball room and perceived, with start, two
 
 eyes that knew well, but found it diff ficult to recognize, so big had they grown in that concentrated, wondering look.
 Suddenly their owAer arose and turn ed toward me. A glance aside showed me Courtalin slowly and laboriously making his way toward me from anoth- CT corner. My cousin looked at the same time and saw him.
 Then it became 8 raco between the two men. Gontran intrepidly cut me before Courtalin. He came up to me precipitately. He caught my hand; he put his arm about me.
 We danced gayly, wildly, furiously. What a waltz! He said to me: .I love you; I love you! You are grace and beauty itself. There is not another wom- an here half so lovelyl And it is I who shall marry youl Do you hear? l, and none otherp'
 "Ah, my dear, if you had not come tonight, my engagement to M. de Cour- talin would have been officially an nounced tomorrow.
 ''Yes, but have come, and am here holding you fast. have discovered that there is not another woman like you love youp'
 "Slower, slower, pray you. 1 am falling Everything is turning around. StopP'
 ''No, no; we shall not stop. If we stop, your mother will stop us, and ] have more to say to you-much more. Swear that you will be my wife"
 ''Yes; I swear it But enough enough''-
 He held me so tightly, and his face was pressed so close to my face, his lips so close to mine, that grew suddenly faint and slipped down into his arms.
 The next day our engagement was an nounced. The waltz had created a scan dal It was imperative Milwaukee Sentinel

SORRY LOT OF SIOUX.
Came Home From the Antwerp Fair Phys
 fcally Wrecked.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. IA pitiable sight was witnessed upon the arrival of the Red Star line steamer Illinois, Cap tain Ferguson, from Antwerp, when 12 Indians, comprising part of Pawnee Bill s wild west show, stepped ashore. They bore but little semblanoe to the Indians who sailed iron this port on April 20 for the Worlds fair at Antwerp. Gaunt looking hollow eyed and some on crutch- es, they excited the pity of the crowds of spectators that usually witness the arrival of an immigrant steamer.
 Their show at Antwerp had been fail ure, and the climate had soon wrecked the constitutions of the Indians. There were eight men, four squaws and one baby, which WAS strapped to the back of Its mother. They left immediately for the reservation in South Dakota During the voyage one of the squaws named Walking Woman died and was buried at sea on July 27

the Japanese. The latter, the report adds, captured @ dispatch boat and sunk a transport Six other transports escaped.
 Further details of the naval engage ment havereached this city. The fighting though of short duration, was very severe. One of the Japanese warships got within a comparatively short distance of the transport Row Shing and discharged a torpedo at her. The missile was we'll di- rected and struck the transport fairly. A terrific explosion followed, and the Row Shing began at once to fill
 Prior to the discharge of the torpedo the crew of the transport, which was arm ed, and the military force on board of her made hard fight against the attacking force. Many of those on board of her were shot dead on her deck.
 Nearly Two Thousand Lost.
 When the vessel began to sink, there was great excitement-in fact, panic on board of her. In the dire confusion that prevailed no attempt was made to lower the small boats, but even had such an at tempt been made the boats could have carried only a small percentage of those on board.
 Every foreigner on board the transport which had been chartered by the Chinese government from an English company, was either killed in the fighting or went down with the vessel when she foundered
 The loss of life was very great Of nearly 2, 900 Chinese troops on board of her, only 40 were saved. They were pick cd mp by the French gunboat Lion, that was cruising in the vicinity.
 Only a short time elapsed between the explosion of the torpedo and the founder ing of the transport. The vessel went down suddenly near Shopiont island. at which place her commander made an attempt to beach her.
 The Tsao Kian, which was captured by the Japanese, was an old man of war that had been pressed into use as trans port. Many men were killed on board of her before she fell into the hands of the Japanese.
 News has been received here that on the same day the naval engagement took

LOCKED IN TO DIE.
Three Children sunocatsd In a sIdstraoked
 Freight Caboose.

HARTFORD. July 30.-Raymond g; Le- roy, :, and Freddie, 1, the childron of James w. Ganion, locomotive engineer on the New York, New Haven and Hart. ford railroad, who have been missing since Thursday afternoon, when they went to bathe in the Connecticut river, were found dead in the closet of freight oaboose standing on a side track near the round. house not 800 feet from their home.
 After numerous searches for the three boys Chief of Police Bill ordered the freight cars and railroad property searched, and two policemen were drawn to the ca. boose by the smell of dcoomposing flesh. In the trainmen's closet, shut by a spring lock, they found the three bodies entirely nude and badly decomposed. The inquest by Medical Examiner Fuller discovered no evidences of foul play, and he gave a verdict of accidental death by asphyxia- ton.
 The oaboose was newly painted, and the children went in 10 play, pack of cards being found in the closet It is supposed they closed the door and could not open it and soon suffocated in tho stifiing hot air of the narrow inolosure.
