COULD CORNER CAMPHOR,
Some Speculations of the Possibilities of
Japan.

Some Speculations of the Possibilities of
Japan.
New YORK, Nov. 23.-A special to the
New York World says: Japan will con-
troll the worlds supply Of canphor
should it get the island Of Formosa as
part of its indemnity from China, &C.
cording to Anthony T. Pritchard, who
lived many years in Asia.
"Camphor sold for less than 10 cents a
pound twenty years ago,"he says, "but it
has advanced to over 81 a pound"
1T is generally believed by Japanese
merchants and travellers that if Japan
had not been drawn into the war with
China at this time it would have seized
the Hawaiian Islands, on the ground
that there are more Japanese there than
people of any other nationality. These
men look upon the move to secure For
mosa as in line with Japan's policy to
strengthen herself as the England of
the Pacific and as preliminary to secur-
ing the Philippine Islands, and the Ha.
waiian Islands also should the United
States fail to annex them.

in connection with H. H. Holmes, is
charged with defrauding a local insur-
ance company out of $4,000, reached
this city today. lie was met by Marshall

dered himself. Lawyer Mcdonald said:
This arch conspirator, H. H. Holmes, or
H. M. Morgan, the name by which he
was known in st. Louis, came to the
Office while l was absent in Colorado and
proposed the case, saying Mrs. Pitzel
wanted some n to represent her. 1t
was the first case the boy had ever been
offered, and he jumped right into it with
all the ardor and enthusiasm Of youth.
He did not wait for US to return, and the
result was this slick crook imposed upon
him. My young friend may have been
indiscreet, but be is no criminal"
Superintendent Of Police Lindsay be-
lieves Howe was misled by Holmes. A.
S. l.. Shields, the noted criminal lawyer,

JAPAN s WILLING
That the United States Shall Pre-
vent the Petition of the
Chinese
ASKING FOR SUSPENSION
OF the War - Minister DENLY In
structed to Present the
Offer Direct.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-In accordance
with the suggestion Of Japan, the state
department has notified Ministers Dunn
at Toxic and DENLY at Pekin to trans
NIT direct any offer that China may wish
to make Japan. The Chinese delegation
here is not notified as to what course its
government will take. The Associated
Press cable from Japan states, however,
that China has intimated a willingness
to pay an indemnity of l00,000,000 taels,
and in addition all the war expenses in.
cured by Japan. As the war expenses
reach 15O,OOO,00O taels, the total offer Of
China would be 2%5O,0O0,0OO taels. A
tael, a Chinese silver coin, is worth
about 80 cents at the present exchange.
1t is believed here arrangements between
the two nations could be effected on
terms providing for a small indemnity.
D~iplomatists say that under ordinary
circumstances it would take some time
for China to formally present its offer to
Minister DENLY, but, as the Japanese
are now on their way to Port Arthur
and about to make a last blow at China's
greatest fortress, it is anticipated that
China may hurry negotiations to a con
%clusion. 1t is expected that Minister
DENLY will transmit an offer by tele-
graph to Tien Tsin and Shanghai, ard
thence by cable TO Yokohama.

WORSE AND WORSE,

China's Greatest BattIeship Is Disabled
by sn I~nexcusabIe Accident-Ad-
vance on Port Arthur.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23-The Chinese
have lost the most powerful vessel in
their navy, the great bat,leship Chen
Yuen, which stood the brunt Of the
fighting at Yalu. A cable received at
the state department today states that
the Chen Yuen in leaving Wei Hal Wei
harbor on the 18th inst. accidentally
struck a torpedo. She was beached, but
rendered useless for lack of docking ia
~cilities. In despair at the catastrophe
the commander, Commodore Lin 81
committed suicide. 1t was as we'll that
he did, for he would doubtless have been
decapitated as the result of his error. 1t
is believed here that this loss has de-
prived the Chinese navy of it's offensive
power. There remains Ting Yuen, a
powerful battleship, and a few lesser
ironclads, but without the aid Of the
Chen Yuen they would hardly dare to
make an offensive campaign, and prob
ably will remain in port TO assist in the
defense.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 23.-Seronion
Brothers, commission merchants of Fres.
no, and G. A. Campbell, who has hauled
freight for twenty years On the western
slopes OF the Sierras, have hit upon q
plan by which they hope to be independ.
emit of the Southern Pacific railroad and
its enormous freight charges. Campbell

teams and two wagons, loaded With about
ten tons of dried figs, bound for San
Francisco, a distance of 212 miles. He
expects to reach here by Nov. 26 and q
return load is waiting for him.
Campbell is confident that he will
make a fair profit out of his venture,
while the Seropion Brothers say they
will save IL cents per 100 pounds on car
load lots, and % cents per 100 pounds on
less than a carload.
Shippers throughout the San JOAQUIN

intense interest, and if it proves a cue.

The Mexico Universal Pays Its Respects

CRY OF Mexico. Nov. 22.-The Uni
versal Newspaper today contains a very
warlike article regarding the Mexican
Guatemalan trouble. 1t says: "In con
sequence Of continued attacks against
Mexico and her government, made by
the Guatemalan press, it was rumored
yesterday that this country would de-
clare diplomatic relations with Guate-
mala at an end. Ia Guatemala they say
the Mexicans always fed before the
Americans and French. The world
knows the Mexican soldier does not
turn his back. Cherubusco, Chapultepec,
Pueblo, etc, are witnesses of that. With
Guatemala we do not expect glory or
gaining OF ~laurels. We have Of
fered them friendship and they return
black ingratitude, and our men and our
people are not in a humol to listen to
the diatribes Of the Guatemalan press"

TREATY Or AMITY
New Deal to Regulate Relations Be-
tween the United States
and japan
HAS Been FORMALLY SIGNED
The Affair Looked Upon as Having
an Important Diplomatic
Influence.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-Secretary OF
State Gresham. in behalf of the United
States and Minister Kurino Of Japan, in
behalf Of his country, have affixed their
signatures to the new treaty of amity
and commerce between this country and
Japan. The final formalities in execu-
ton of the instrument occurred at the
state department after the close OF Of
flee hours, and the fact that it O
awaits only the ratification of the two
governments was exclusively announced
by the Associated Press yesterday. Sec
rotary Gresham will now transmit the
new treaty. to the United States senate
as soon as it convenes and Mr.. Kurino
will forward it to the Japanese foreign
office to be approved by the emperor of
Japan and the privy council. Coming at
the present time, the signing of the
treaty is considered of much significance
beyond its actual terms, as it establishes
c 1rdiality between the countries, when
foreign powers are endeavoring to show
that the Japanese rejection of peace me-
diation was a snub to the United States.
The signing of the treaty concludes the
labor which has been in progress for ff-
teen years, and it was with a special
view Of closing the long negotiations
that kurino was taken from an impor-
tant post in the japanese foreign office
and sent to Washington. The event
also will cause much comment in Great
Britain, France, Switzerland, and other
foreign countries as the action of the
United States affects similar treaties
abroad. The treaty with Great Britain
is closed and one with France and Swift
erland are largely dependent upon the
close of American negotiations,
