unjustlv treated by another power, to
use it's good Offices 10 arrange the diff
Guilty. 1t is similar in scope TO the trst
article ia our treaty with Corea, which
led Secretary Gresham at the beginning
of the trouble to write the note to
United States Minister Dun at Toxic,
relative to the Japanese occupation Of
Corsa, which excited somu1h comment.
Encouraged bY the attitude OF the
United States at that time, the Chinese
government appealed 10 United States
Minister DENNY, at Pekin, to cause his
government to intervene, and Mr..
Denby transmitted the application to
Washington, where 1t was laid before
the President, who has had it under
consideration for week or more. As
Secretary Gresham's representation 10
the case OF the occupation OF Cores had
little effect, there was no reason to sup
pose q different result would follow an
attempt to use the good Offices OF this
government in favor OF China.
Both China and Japan we're assured
that this governme was free from any
suspicion OF a desire TO secure sccessions
OF territory in Asia which hung over
the great European powers, and their
confidence in the fairness and impartial
itV of the United States was striSinglv
manifested by the selection OF this gov
ernmsnt by both nations TO care for
their subjects in each others territory.
So the United States is placed in posi-
ton where she would naturally be
looked TO by both China and Japan to
serve as an arbitrator in case Of diff
Guilty In arranging terms OF peace, and
il is therefore very improbable that
the government will forfeit this position
by yielding to ChinA's request to inter-
vene. Arbitrate we may, but intervene
We cannot, is the manner in which the
situation is summarized in official cir
cles here. II the Chinese government
desires the United States to present
peace proposals 10 Japan this may be
done through Minister Deuby, but II Is
felt here that the better way would be
for China TO submit her proposals di-
rectly within the bounds Of proprietT
for the United States TO express the
qualification it would feel, as nation
friendly to both combatants, to see
peocs restored on honorable terms.

Governor Fishback's Characterization
OF the English ABti-Lynohing Commit
tees Action.
LITTLE Rock, ARK, November TO-
Governor Fishback has sent reply to
the answer OF the Anti-LYnchiBg Com
mittee of England, 10 which he says:
Upon what system OF reasoning does
your committee or do the English peo-
Die base their assumption OF right to
teach the people OF this or any other
Christian or civilized country either
morals or manners?
what single page OF English history,
or what aspect Of English character,
would justify intelligent people In sup
posing that England has q higher re-
gard for human rights, for morals, or
for religion than the people OF the
United StGtesP What civilized country
on the globe has shown less regard for
human rights where her interests were
involved than England?
Her treatment OF Irish tenants, OF the
African, Of the Egyptian, OF the Sepoys
of India, OF our own colonist ancestors,
Of whatever people over whom she has
secured control, whether legitimate or
illegitimate, all attest she hypocrisy O.
such an assumption.
This State Of Askansas, which see
some OF your leaders regard as 3 wild
Western State, according TO the last
census reports, is educating not only a
larger percentage OF her white children,
but also OF her coIored children. than
England Is educatieg Of her own sons
and daughters, and within the past
ten years has established nearly one
church every other day. until she has
one church for every 325 people. Can
England boast Of as rapid religious
progress?
III the people composing your com
mlttse were possessed Of the intelll-
Rsuce which their exalted rank would
Indicate and ought to insure, they
would not fall TO appreciate she worse
than folly Of thsir almost ludicrous i'm
nartfnence"

NASHVILLE, TBNN., November Ill A
M.-The Democratic Executive ComrlUiee
practically admits tue election OF Evans,
Republican. on the face Of the returns.
The Republican Committee claims
his election by from l,4OO 10
1900 votes. There will. from present
Indications, be contest when the Leels-
lature meets to canvass the return. The
Legislature is Democratic in both
branches. The Democrats claim that they
have conclusive evidences Of frauds perpe-
trated in East Tennessee counties, and
that the returns from many Of them have
been padded TO show more votes and
larger majorities for Evans than be re-
ceived, and that when these are elimlna-
ted. TurDey's indisputed vote will give
him a majority. The Legislature meets IN
January, '95. Returns tonight from TWO
counties in West Tennessee show that the
former statements are incorrect and will
reduce Turney's majority LOO. and Will
elect Evans on the face OF IT, The Amert-
can from late and corrected returns, admit
that Evans has $50 over Turney by the
face of the returns.

TIE TRANSIT OF nEECURY
Witnessed From the Naval Observatory
at Washington Yesterday.

WASHINGTON, d. c., November l0.-The
transit Of Mercury was observed at the
Naval Observatory to-day under the direc-
tion of Prof. William Hoskuers, astrono-
mer. The first and second contacts were
observed most satisfactorily; but because
the sun was obscured by cloud at the
time of the third and fourth contacts,
which should have occurred about 4:l2
D. IN, no observation could be made.
The observations were taken with
all the telescopes at the institution, rang
ing in size from three TO twenty-six inches
in diameter. IL is also hoped that the cal
culations will determine the vezed ques-
tion as TO whether the moon or the earth
can set the irregulsrlty between the dur
nal rotation OF the earth and the motion OF
the moon around the earth, but there will
also be delay in arriving at conclusions on
this point.
