;
The Tribune owes Mrs. Klock aud the
Republican party of Colorado an annie
apology. On the authority of sundry West
ern papers, it assumed first, that Mrs. Kl0cl<
was Il Populist, and, secondly, that she was
defeated in her canvass fer the Colorado
Legislature Whersnpou, it was noted ms a
matter of news that Mrs. Klocll didn'i
strike -, but stopped short. Now, in point
OF fact, Mrs. KlOck ran for the Legislature
en- the Republican ticket and was elected by
SOME Is 600 majority. So. instead of merely
striking II, she has struck 1890, and her
numerous friends say thar if she doesn't run
again aud get still bigger majority it will
only be because she will have walkover,
and won't be obliged TO run.

THE EASTERN WAR.
Chinese Greatly Excited by Japanese
Movements.

Movements.
SHANGHAI. Oct. 9.--Thc masters Of
Chinese junks from Che Foo report
that they sighted fleet of seventy
Japanese transports and Wur Ships
entering the gulf OF Pe-Chi III. After
steaming westward some distance they
altered their course to the northeast.
The report has caused the greatest
excitement here and elsewhere. IT is
believed this is the cNpcditionary force
Of 30, 600 men from the Second Jap
anesc army corps, conveyed by the
Second Japanese squadron, which left
hiroshima September &c, under sealed
orders, in command of Field Marshal
Oyama. Ii is reported the Chinese are
in full retreat from Moukden, which is
threatened by the Japanese forces
advancing from Corea and those landed
near POSSIBLE bay, bordering on Corea
and Manchuria. 1t is believed here
the retreat from Moullden was the
result of hasty withdrawal for the
purpose Of opposing the projected
landing of the Japanese expedition in
the bay of Pei-Chi-Li or in the gulf of
Lao-Tcn. The Chinese have been hur-
riedly strengthening the Notifications
of New Chwang in anticipation of 3
japanese attack at that post. China
has authorized the raising of a loan Of
ten million pounds sterling One
million has already been placed
