Last Reason OF Kings.

YoKoHOMA, July 28-A lengthy state
ment has been sent out from an authori-
tatlve source explaining Japan's position.
1t is claimed she has never gone beyond
the rights given her by the treaty of 1885
The statement rehearses Japan's demands,
as presented to the government at PEI
king. and declares that if war results, the
policy of China will be answerabe for it
1t is impossible, says the statement in
conclusion, TO conjecture what caused
CGlna's attitude IN the face of japan e
lndisputable treaty rights.
YoKoHoMA, July 28-The Japanese
government has issued the following
official statement: In consequence of
>evere proVocatlOn, three ships of the
Japanese squadron were compelled to en-
gage the Chinese feet off Foni 40. on
Round island. They captured the CHI
nese warship fsao Kan, and sank Chi
nese transport with soldiers on board !.
Unfortunately one of the largest Chinese
ironclads OF the northern feet, the Chen
Ynen, escaped to China. aud the Chinese
torpedo cruiser Huan Tae, escaped to Fa
san, Corea. Tie japanese warships en-
gagged escaped without injury"

To Desert Pu,,man.

CHICAGO, July elf negotiations now
pending are carried to q successful ter
mination, the striking car. buftders at
Pullman will quitthe "model town" in a
body and become the employees of pow
ertul new corporation organized for the
manufacture of palace and freight cars
and day coaches. For more than week
secret communications are said to have
been passing between the agent of the
corporation IN Chicago aud the strikers
central committee. The offer to the men
are in writing, signed by man of
wealth and prominence in the business
circles of the city. The names of q
NUM- Der of capitalists who are connectec
with the enterprise are also mentioned,
togive the communication greater weight.
Thus far the deliberations of the central
committee and their replies to the ad-
vaDces made by the corporation have
been kept wholly secret, but it is known
that every member is heartily n favor of
the change if reasonable terms can be
agreed upon. As soon as the negotia-
tions have reached more definite basis,
the matter will be laid before this body
of strikers for their sanction and ap-
proval.

The Oregon Navigation.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 29-The fact
that the Oregon Railway 6 Navigation
Company has opened an Office In this city
for the transaction of freight and passen
ger business, and has entered the field to
compete for the overland traffic between
San Francisco and the east with the
Southern Pacific and Union Pacific, has
awakened coDsiderab interest in mer-
cantie circles Merchants who are op-
posed to the Southern Pacific see an ad-
vantage ia buiding up opposition freight
traffic out of California. They argue
that it may result in a reduction OF
freight rates. Assistant General Freight
Agent Sproule, OF the Southern Pacific
says that any opposition which might be
established by the Oregon company could
not affect the Southern Pacific In the
least, adding:
"The Northern Pacific and the Great
Northern are not the connections OF the
Oregon company. They have no traffic
re elations whatever. They connect q,
Spokane but they exchange DO business. -
The representatives of the Oregon com
pany, on the other hand. say that while
this has been true IN the past, there is no
indication that 1t is bound to remain so
In fact, 1t is very likely that traffic ar
rangement between the ROADS mentioned
will be perfected within the next few
days, as negotiations to that end ale now
in progress.

ceur d,Alene Line.

WASHINGTON. July 2s-In only one
section OF the country are the United
States troops engaged actively IN keeping
open railroad trafflc, which was inter-
rupted during the strike. This is the
country along the Northern Pacific rail.'
road. Today General Otis, at the Vsn..
couver barracks, telegrsphed the war de
partment that the Northern Pacific
agents had requested him to furnish
troops to open that part of the line lying
in the C9ur d'Alene country. The gen
eral consented to provide the troops from
the force now at Wardner, Idaho. with
the understanding that they are to con
fine themselves TO pushing forward mail
trains and preventing Instructions to
interstate commerce. They will not be
used to guard the railroad generally,
save by the request of the judicial au-
thOritles.

over the Mountains ON Foot.

Last Saturday evening. when the TINES
MoUNTATNEER was being printed, a
stranger apparently, weather. beaten and
covered with dust from "roughlng it," came
into the office and pleasantly saluted the
editor. For time we were not aware
whom we were addressing, but soon ascer-
tanned the fact that the gentleman was
Hon. Lydell Baker, who had made the
journey from Portland over the mountains
on fool. He was accompanied by Prof.
Francis K. Lloyd, of Pacific university at
Forest Grove, and who had made the trip
for the purpose of gathering specimens of
fora and plants indigenous to the Cascades,
of which he had made very choice seleo-
tion. They made the ascent of Hood with
the Mazamas, and then continued their
Journey to The Dalles. Their trip through
the mountains has undoubtedly greatly i'm
proved them physically, and they will re-
turn to their different labors with renewed
energy.

The shops.

There is well authenticated rumor in
circulation that the o. r. 4 N. Co. will re-
establish the shops m this city. and our
people will gladly welcome'them. The rail-
roadrompany has more friends in the city
than formerly. and if the effort was made to
establish their shops at this point We haye
no doubt that many CONCESSIONS would be
made. Cars built in The Dalles stand
longer than those constructed in the Will
lamette valley, because our climate Datu-
rally seasons lumber. Again, The Dalles is
at convenient distance from Portland,
and, in case of wreck or blockade. the in
jury could be repaired or the road cleared
by working from both directions.

Al Tozier III.


Albert Tozier, who was candidate on
the Democratic ticket for city auditor, and
who was defeated by A. N. Gambell, is Sc
riously i'll in New York city. Mr.. Tozier
went east as representative of the PORT
land press to the newspaper convention that
was recently held at Asbury Park, N. Y.
After the meeting Mr.. Tozier went to New
York city and ran up against some hot
weather which Oregon does not furnish.
Mr.. Tozier could not stand the pressure,
and one day fell upon the street, being
overcome by the heat. At last accounts bis
eondltion was considered serious, but at
tending physicians are of the opinion that
he will pull through all right. All his
Portland friendfhope so, for even outside
of the newspaper profession AL Tozier en-.
joys popularity that many men would be
glad to possess.

summer Resort

At Trout Lake, Wash, there are quite
a number of families camping, spending
the summer season in that delightful
locality. Hon. E. L. Smith and family
of Hood River, have been there for some
time and will remain while the heated
term lasts. Judge Bennett, Prof. Birg-
field and Mr.. L. Butler and families are
also there, enjoying the rural shade of
forest trees and feastIng on trout and
game. The ice caYes are short distance
away, and these furnish one of the neces-
sary ingredients for ice-cream parties or
for the cold-storage of meats. They all
appear well satisfied with the situation,
and will not return to the busy haunts of
the city until their mountain resort be-
comes too cold for comfort.

Mr.. Charles Brune, who has been resi-
dent at The Dslles and in the vicinity of
Rockland, WASH, since 1865, died last Sat-
urday night at his residence near the latter
place. For several years past Mr.. Brune

The House 10 Caucus.

WASHINGTON, July ga caucus OF
the house Democrats will probably be
held before the final action is taken upon
the tariff bill. Holman of Indiana,
the chairman of the causus committee,
said today that the matter of caucus
had been discussed more or less by the
Democrats during the past "a hours. Il
is believed that the house conferrees will
Ins,stastrenuously upon the Wilson bill
when they meet in conference, and that
after several days passed in committee,
another dIsagreeing report will be made
Holman thinks that on the same day
such report is made the house Democrats
will meet In caucus and decide upon he
instructions which shall be given TO their
confreIees. At the caucus, the house
coutrerees will probably give their indi-
vidusl views as to the better plan of
settlement, and will speak more freely
than they wou d other Use In open house
Holmsn thinks 1t not unlikely that the
instructions of the caucus Will be of such
a CHARACTER as to result at the conference
following in compromise, which will be
accountable to both hopses. He added:
I'VE must have tariff bill before we
adjourn, No other course is left to US"
