WAsHINGTOS, Aug. 2. - Secretary Grcsham was asked as to the attitude of the government toward allowing the sale of munitions of war to the belligercnts- He expressed n disinclinatiun to discuss tho question in the abstract and said the point was covered by the law of ISIS. He indicated that the position of this govern ment in the pending conflict was that of neutrality.
 Mir Miyauka, tho Japanese chargc d af faircs, received several tcleGrams from his government. One of them contained tho statement made by the minister of for foreign governments at Tokyo that n state of war existed between Japan and China The telegram was delayed in transmits sion, being dated July 3l.
 Tho statement was preceded by dec laration by the minister of foreign affairs that Japan had exhausted all pcaceablc and honorable means to adjust the differ cnces existing betwcon tho two countries and felt compelled to mako the announce ment of a state of war.
 This statement, MT. Miyaoka says. Is tantamount to declaration of war and has precisely tho same effect as though war had been formally declared.
 The charge d 'affaires communicated the contents of the telegram to Secretary Gresham.
 The statement that has been printed to the effect that the naval attsche of the legation has been visiting the principal cities in the north whore firearms arc manufactured for the purpose of making purchases for the use of tho Japanese army Is denied at the legation.

TRAIN HELD UP,
Robbers Shot an Express Mcsscngcr. but
 Got No Money.


 ST. InrIS, Aug. 3.-Reports just re ceivcd from police headquarters state shat the passenger train which left here on the Frisco road at SEQ last evening for Kan sas City and points west was held up at Eureka, a station a miles from here in St Louis county. It is reported that the express messenger was shot through the hand.
 Particulars of the reported holdup are very meager. As far known the rob- bers, whose numbers are unknown, ob- taincd nothing from the express car which they attacked after stopping the train. A lively fusilladc resulted when the rob bcrs attempted to enter the express car, the Wells Fargo messenger opening fro on them and wounding one of their num- Der, it is thought.
 The robbers returned tho fro and shot the messenger through the hand. They then escaped. Sheriff Garrett at Clayton was notified of the attempted holdup and made preparations nt n late hour to follow the fugitives with posse.
 Tho train after proceeding n short dis tancc from the scene of tho shooting met with another mishap, which Is regarded IS part ot a prearranged plan to wreck and rob the train. Near Eureka station an explosion took place in front of tho engine, supposed to havo been caused by dynamite. Tho headlight was extinguish- sd, the pilot partly blown away and other parts of the front end of the engino dam Aged, but nobody was hurt.

How Purple Became the Royal Color.

Purple was selected as the color for royalty because of its enormous cost and rarity. The only purple known to the ancients was the Tyrian purple, which was obtained in minute quantities only from Mediterranean species of shellfish called the murcx. In the time of Cicero wool double dyed with this color was SO excessively dear that n single pound weight cost n thousand dcnarii. or about Sl75. \ single murex only yielded T little drop of the sccretion: consequent ly very large numbers had to b. taken in order to obtain enough to dye even a small amount of wool Among the na- tions of antiquity there were some with whom it was death for any one except the sovereign or supreme judges Owcar garments dyed with Tyrian purple Upon the accession uf Julius C;rSar T law was passed furbidding any private person to wear il.

The Big Reduction in the Price of Fun erals will be wei come news to the People.
The New Move which the Wa terbury Furniture Co. is mak, ing on East Main Street.

When the Waterbury Furniture com pany started business many years ago prices were very high in the furniture trade. The first move We made was to do a little figuring. and we thought if We could increase the volume of trade by re- ducing the prices which then prevailed it would be good thing for the public and our net profits would not be decreased. We did so, and how we'll We have sue ceeded the public know. Now in our new quarters on East Main street, we have been looking the field ever again. We find that we have plant several times larger than the one We formerly occupied, and the cost of running it is less by several thousand dollars a year. The cost of hay ing ten men working on Field street load ing and reloading goods from the depot to the storehouse and then again to the stores. made an endless amount of expense and kept our help constantly divided. All this Is now done away with. In our present quarters We use just what room We need to carry on our business, and the rest is rented for livery business, storage, etc. All our help are working together, and when We need a man We don't have to go two blocks away to get one. We see now where it will not cost us any more to run our Undertaking business than it does to run the Carpet. Crockery, Stove or any of our other departments. It will cost no more for help, for horses, for rent, and our new quarters give us this advantage with out any extra cost. Now. what we have done in the Furniture we can do in the Un- dertaking department. and we propose to run it at the same margin of profits as Carpets, Crockery. or Stoves. etc. This is a move which no house has ever made be- fore. and WE HAVE PLUCK ENOUGH TO MAKE THE VENTURE. This plan will go into operation at once. The big reductions in the price of funerals will be a welcome boon to the people. The Dis trict Telegraph Office will answer all night calls at East Main street, and we will re- spond quickly

THE TARIFF CONFERENCE.
Sugar Under Discussion, but No Agree
 ment In sight.


 WAsHINGToN, Aug. 3.-Thc Democratic tariff confcrcos did not make as marked progress as they had hoped when they wont into session. Whom they adjourned Wednesday, the situation was so much that some of the members thought an un- dcrstanding might be reached before ad- jOurnment yesterday.
 Members of tho confcrcncc say, how ever, that the same good feeling still cx- ists, and that thero Is the same reason for the belief uf an ultimate amicablc settle- ment. and that today or tomorrow may sec the end of their deliberations. They ad- init, though, that it is impossible to fix any day, for the reason that few minutes often serves to undo accomplishments of an entire day.
 The senate generally understands this to be the situation. and the prevailing opinion on the floor is that the report will not be made this w, :. When asked if it wcrC true, has bcCn generally under stood, that there had been an agreement on all the schedules except sugar. n mombor of the committee said that such was not the fact, but he added that he thought with sugar out of the way the other differ cnccs might bc harmoniZcd. Yet" he said, 'thcrc arc some very knotty ques- tiuns to dral with outside of the sugar schedule ''
 Thcrc Is no doubt that the session was devoted almost entir,y to sugar. and that various propositions have bCcn discussed, but none agreed upon. The senate con ferccs still maintain that no sugar schod ulc will hc reported that do,,S not provide n ditrcrcntial duty for refined sugar.
