THE progress of the Japanese to victory over the Chinese is steady and uninter- rupted. The big nation will have to cry quits to the smaller, and the most con- ceited people on earth acknowledge de- feat. The empire is invaded, and the Japanese are rapidly getting into 8 posi- tion to dictate their own terms of peace.

THE snow fall of last week Monday eve- ming, added to by later storms, still blankets the earth, and on one or two days last week very fair sleighing was enjoyed by those who chose to "rig' for it. The snow on some hill-tops was said to be on election day nearly foot deep. Many travellers on cross roads had to car ry axes to clear the roads of bent and broken trees. It looks as if the snow had come to spend the fall and winter with us.

THE INDIAN TERRITORY.
FIX x-SenatOr Dawes Talks OF Progress
Toward settling with the
Five Tribes.

Washington, May II. - Ex-senator
Dawes, OF the Dawes Indian commission,
which is charged with the responsibility
of arranging for the settlement of ques-
tions connected with the five civilized
tribes, has just returned from Indian
Territory. He says that the commission
was beginning to feel that it was making
progress, but that the work until recently
had been very slow, owing to the fact
that the head men among the Indians
were not disposed toward any change of
present conditions.
There had been, however, perceptible
improvement in the outlook since the
recent visit of the committee of the five
civilized tribes, whose plain talk had the
effect of causing some of the Indians to
see that change OF some kind from the
present condition would soon be neces-
sary. Senator Dawes expressed the
opinion that territorial form of govern
ment would solve many of the questions
which arenow in such unsatisfactory condi-
tion, but, before wholesale change such
as that would involve could be brought
about, he thought that other minor
changes would be necessary, such as the
reformation of the judicial system and
the settlement of the land question.

Washington, May 1.-THE resolution
introduced by Senator Lodge to investi-
gate the charges of attempted bribery of
Senators Kyle and Hunton. also the alle-
cation that the sugar trust had made con-
tributions to the corruption fund was
discussed in the senate to-day and passed
with amendments that broaden it's scope.
Senators Cockrell, Hoar, Chandler, Faulk-
ner and Villas offered amendments, which
made the resolution veritable drag-net,
including all charges of bribery, all allie
cations of contributions by tho sugar
trust, directly or indirectly, to the tariff
campaign committee, or used in elections
by either party, or that any senator had
in any way been properly influenced on
pending tariff legislation. Senator Hans
brough read letter from Senator Kyle
asking the investigation. Senator Hun
ton asked for speedy investigation as did
Senators Harris and Allen IN behalf of
Senator Kyle, who was absent. Senator
Allen made the resolution more specific
by adding: Cor whether any senator has
been speculating in what is known as
sugar stock while the tariff bill has been
pending
The tariff bill was taken up at O'Clock
this afternoon and Senator Gallinger
gave another installment of his speech.

RESERVOIR SITES.
Mr.. H. NJ. Porter Makes a Suggestion
on the Subject Of National Aid
for the Arid Lands.

Mr.. Fl. M. Porter, widely known all
over the west and largely interested in
New Mexico lands, cattle and mines,
makes new suggestion in the Denver
News touching subject of great import
to the arid lands region. He says:
''If the general government would enact
law at once to the effect that an appro-
priation be made of 100000 or $4,000 to
each of the ten states and territories lying
in the arid belt on the headwaters of the
Columbia, Colorado, Arkansas, Rio Gran
de, Platte and Missouri rivers, to pay the
expenses of locating reservoirs by com
mission appointed by said law, composed
of the governor, supreme Judges and the
surveyor general of each of such states and
territories, whose duty it shall be, on ap-
plication of any individual or corpora
tion, to survey and locate a reservoir site
on the headwaters of the aforesaid rivers
and regulate all matters pertaining to the
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1894-05-17

carrying out the said law in the interests
of the individual or corporation, the state
or territory, or the general government,
according to the enactments of said law
which should give to the party agreeing
to build and maintain such reservoir in
substantial manner, according to the re-
qulrements of said commission. the land
upon which the water, culverts, embank-
ments, etc, would rest, free of cost, so
long rs the reservoirs would remain, and
allow the parties to bny one-half tine land
they would engage to irrigate at the min
lmum of $3.50 per acre, the other half to
be sold by the government to other par
ties, to withdraw for reasonable time
such land from the market until such
reservoir could reasonably be built, such
lands withdrawn to be alternate sections,
and also give the right of way to build
bitches leading to such lands from said
reservoirs.
Thousands of such places exist where
water can be stored on any stream where
now a narrow belt of land is cultivated
and watered by irrigation, and ten times
the amount could be cultivated if all the
flood water we're held back and stored at
the headwaters of every tributary of the
above rivers; there are hundreds of such
where land only fit for grazing and worth
30 cents to ST per acre can be reclaimed,
cultivated in grain, grasses and fruits,
and made worth from SO to 500 per
acre"

TOM JOHNSON'S VIEWS.
Says 1t Will Not lsO to Ignore the
Evils Complained OF by the
COxeyites.

Denver, May T.-Congressman Tom
Johnson, of Ohio, has written to Labor
Commissioner Brenthinger as follows:
"While disagree much with Mr.. Coxey
as regards his proposed remedies for
existing evils, feel that this movement
and the present labor troubles are symp-
toms of wide spread dissatisfaction and
indifference, contempt or anything that
looks like repression of free speech will
only intensity the dissatisfaction. The
real anarchists of to-day are those who
ignore the evils and seek to stop free
discussion. The conservatives are those
who, seeing the wrongs, are anxious to
freely discuss and abolish them" The
single tax, he says, would remedy exist
ing trouble.

A NATIONAL RECEPTION.
High HOnOrs Will he Accorded the
ChicagO's Officers.

London, May 1.-THE banquet to be
rendered on May "a, the queens birthday,
to Admiral Erben, Capt. Mahan and the
other officers of the United States cruiser,
Chicago, will be attended by Prince Louis
of Battenberg, Lord Roseberry, Earl
Spencer, Lord George Hamilton, Lord
Brassey, Sir Charles Dixie, Admiral Sir
John Z. Commerall, Admiral Sir William
Dowell, Admiral Sir G. T. Phipps Hornby,
Admiral the Hon. Sir Henry Keppel and
many distinguished naval men.
The Globe, referring to the banquet, says:
"The welcome will be thoroughly national
and not only from the three officers
of the English navy, but from the whole
country. 1t is many years since we have
had the opportunity to shake hands with
Brother Jonathan. yet no country should
be closer to our affections and sympathy.
The occasion will be in the nature of a
family gathering and not the least pleas
ant feature connected with it will be the
simultaneous visit of the British feet to
Boston, where our sailors, doubtless, will
be accorded a similar Welcome"

LABOR TROUBLES.
Operators and Miners Fail to Agree
at Cleveland Battle In the Coke
RegiOn-Strikers ut Work
in Kansas.

Cleveland, May 17.-Thls has been the
gloomiest day in the big coal conference
and possibly it will be the last. The min
ers and operators, before the convention
was called to order, seemed as far apart
as ever, and at the Hullenden and We'd
dell, where the operators are quartered,
the belief seems to be general that when
evening comes the conference will come
to an end, without having reached any
thing approaching settlement. The
convention was called to order shortly
after O'Clock and Chairman Scribe called
for the report of the conference commit
tee. Every member in the hall knew just
what it would be-that no agreement
could be reached and there was no sur
prise that many operators started home
last evening, leaving their proxies. Some
went away this morning SO that the con-
venton consisted of not more than 800
delegates as against 400 the first day.
ATTACKED BY STRIKERS.
Uniontown, Pa.-Two hundred strikers
attacked the coke workers on their way
to work at the Martin and Kyle plants to-
day, and, after pitched battle, the work
men assisted by the deputies dispersed
the mob. A number on both sides were
injured, but none seriously.
FRu1rLEss CONFERENCE.
After the joint conference committee
reported that they could not agree with
the operators, Z. L. Chapman, of Ohio, and
a member of the conference committee,
made brief address, which recounts the
history of the committee meeting and
says the operators offered a 65 and Sc
cent scale, while the miners still held out
for 20 and 70 cents. He said: "Tn view
of the present depressed and strained
condition of manufacturing interests the
operators could not concede the advance
asked"
President Mcbride was the next speak
er. He said he was willing to have vote
taken on the compromise offered by the
operators, but would guarantee that
the miners would be unanimous against
it. Continuing the speaker said: Gas a
native born citizen I blush to think that
our business interests are builded upon
starvation and degraded wages paid the
laborers I represent. We want you to
give us living wages and increase the
price of coal SO you can get fair profit.
There can be no compromise along lines
of starvation wages. The miners make
no threats but they stand together, peace
ably, earnestly and determined as ever
and will 60 on so finishing this fight and
be prepared for future fights of the kind"
LITTLE PROGRESS MADE.
The wage scale of the puddlers and
helpers was taken up to-day by the Anal
gamated Association & Steel Workers.
but very little progress was
made. The delegates positively refuse to
say what the scale will be or how soon it
will be completed, but from words
dropped by some members the inference
is that the convention will be in shape to
adjourn Friday night or Saturday morn
ing. i
WANT WALK OUT,
Pittsburg, Kas.-Miners, $50 in num-
ber, arrived at the mines here this morn
ing to commence missionary work.
They propose to visit every shaft in the
district and persevere until they accom-
plish general walk out.

FUEL FAMINE.
Grand Trunk will Receive No More
Grain Pending Coal strike
Other Roads Likely to
rake Similar Action.

Chicago, May 17.-The officials of the
Grand Trunk line announced to the board
of trade to-day that pending the settle
ment of the coal strikes no more grain
would be received for shipment. What
coal is held by the system, it announced,
will be reserved for moving passenger
trains and perishable freight. The an
nouncement caused a general weakness in
the wheat market as it is thought it may
foreshadow action on the part of other
railroad companies.
The announcement that the Grand
Trunk will receive no more grain until
the coal strikes are settled, together with
weakness in New York, has caused free
selling. Toward the close of the session
trading became somewhat panicky.
July sold down to d ct. below the open
ing price, again making the lowest price
on record.

The Dawes commission is now engaged
upon the latter problem, which is one Of
such intricacy as to require great deal
of careful work. While he was not dis
posed to go into details, he expressed the
opinion that the lands of the several
tribes would be divided pro rata among
the Indians. If this system should be
adopted the Choctaws and Chickasaws
would receive 800 or LOCO acres each,
while the members of the othersthree
tribes would get an average OF about $50
acres aach
