Vigilantly Guarding His

Is Uneasy.

WASHINGTON, Aug. IA brief cable
gram announcing the arrival of the Cuit-
ed States steamship MOnocacy at Nagas-
aki, Japan.receIved by Secretary Herbert
today, is the only official news from the
seat of war that has come to the govern
ment here from its representatives in
China and Japan, and the surmiSe that
official dispatches are being obstructed
purpoSely now amounts to conviction.
The Monocacy was at CheZulDO with
the Baltimore, and it is supposed that
she ran over to Nagasaki for coal and
supplies. 1t is thought here that the
action of Japan in officially notifying the
British government Of the existence ola
state of war between Japan and China
W Is precipitated by the kow Sauug acci-
dent. Had such notice preceded the
sinking of the ship, Japan would not
have incurred liability to Great Britain
all been obliged to apologize. In eff
feet, that notice Is equivalent to a dec
laration of war, or at least it imposes
the same obligation Oil neutral nations.
Inc United States, for instance, can
sell to either China or Japan arms or
munitions of war and supplies, but they
must be delivered at the risk of he pur-
chaser, and any vessel carrying them is
liable TO seizure. So by this stroke
Japan has seriously embarrassed China
in her efforts to supply herself with
warlike equipments in other countries.
The conditions are very similar to
those of the TonQuin campaign in 1881.

LAST DAY OF INSURANCE.
The loss of Z. K. Martin & Co., is es-
timated by Mr.. Martin to be $S50,OO0. He
said at midnight:
II had in my yards 100000 feet Of
lumber, easily worth 100000. A pc
culiar phase of the thing is that at mid
night tonight all my insurance amount
ing to over 100000 would have
lapsed. l had made arrangements to
have it renewed tomorrow, but between
midnight tonight and noon tomorrow
would have had no insurance. The fire
caught me just five hours before my in.
Surance was out, and inside OF an hour
all had was gone"
Mr.. Martin declared that before the
fire his lumber yard was the largest in
the world, but it don't matter" he
continued, "Tll have another just as
large within a short time"
The loss of SrmenS & Halske
was estimated by one of the foremen to
be S800,000; but this is generally be-
lleyed to be great eXaggeration. The
principal loss was on machinery, as the
building of the concern was not worth
much. The loss of the Chicago Stove
works is chiefly in patterns. all of which
were made of white metal and very val

When it seemed that the flames would
even cross Paulina street and reach the

This gave the fire department the

flames were practically checked

destroyed the mill Of the Conway COM

DENVER AND PHOENIX.

There is now building in Arizon a,
says the Denver NeaUs, piece of rail-
road which will give to the merchants
and manufacturers of this city an en-
trance into the Salt River valley and
the CITY of Phoenix. Mention was made
in these columns few days ago that
the Southern Pacific had so arranged
it's rates as to exclude from Arizona all
Colorado products, leaving the field
open exclusively to California. This
new piece of road leaves the Atlantic
and Pacific at Ash Fork and runs south
to Prescott, to which point it is COM
pleted and in operation. On the line
between Prescott and Phoenix over
1000 men are now at work, and grading,
bridge building and track laying are
being pushed as rapidly as the force of
men can do it. Citizens of Phoenix are
largely interested in the enterprise, and
are giving to it both of their energy and
money. When completed it Will assure
to that city competing line both to
the east and west.
The connection from Denver will be
over the Santa Fe to Albuquerque
thence over the Atlantic & Pacific to
Ash Fork and thence south to Phenlx.
At present the all-rail rate to Phoenix
is via Ell Paso or Deming. The saving
in distance as we'll as the advantage of
line in competition with the Southern
Pacific, all under the control of the
Santa Fe system, need not be pointed
out.
Phoenix is one of the most enterpris-
ing and progressive of Arizona cities,
and the Salt River valley is without a
rival among the fruit and agricultural
sections of the southwest. 1t is a re-
gion growing IN wealth and reputation,
and opens great inducements for the
trade of Denver's wholesale merchants
and manufacturers. Some day it will
be reached by the Rio Grande Southern
on more direct route from Durango,
but that day may be decade hence.
The ash Fork extension will be COM
pleted during the coming summer, and
then let Denver's business men make a
strike for the trade of Arizona.
