ARBITRATION IS OFFERED.
UNITED STATES TO ACT AS MEDI- AT0R IN THE WAR IN TEE EAST.

Department of stats hes Received Assur- auces That China will Aooept-Nothing Heard From Tokio-JapanessH Have Their Fighting Blood Up.
 Washington. Nov. l1.-on Tuesday last Secretary Gresham. acting under instructions from President Cleveland. teiegraphed Minister ,Denby at Pekin. that this country would. if desired. ar- bitrate the differences between China and Japan. On the same day another dispatch. also inspired by President Cleveland, was sent by Secretary Gresham to Mir Dunn. the United States minister at Tolio. This dis- patch after stating the willingness of the United States to mediate between the two countries proceeded at con- siderable length to define our position.
 It added that in making this sug- gestion the United States were in- fiuenced by sentiments of friendship for both contending parties: that no consideration of territorial aggran- dizemen entered into the question; that our interests in the east were not materially affected by the war and that in attitude of this government could not be open to any other con- struction that that if an earnest friend of the two nations interested.
 Since these dispatches were sent the department has received assurances that China will accept the proposition. Nothing has been heard from Tokio. but 1t is suspected in administration circles that the Japanese government will take. no action until they have first been apprised of China's inten- tions and are satisfied that China Is willing to take peace on terms satis- factory to them. These terms include the independence of Corea and c war indemnity. Japan, it Is understood. is satisfied that if President Cleveland be chosen as arbitrator he will act fairly with both parties and that he will fix the indemnity at such figure as will satisfy Japan.
 England's efforts to secure the vu- operation of other European countries to bring the war to 8 close have thus far been unsuccessful, as have her eff forts to get the United States to CO., operate in 8 joint intervention. The belief is expressed in diplomatic circles that if the war be prolonged much further England may interfere and for cibly prevent any further aggressions on the part of Japan. ~ Such step would at once involve the latter coun- try in war with Great Britain. for now that the Japanese have their fighting blood up they, will not hk baked in their purpose of punishing China unless prevented by a superior outside force For this reason Japan, it is thought, may the more willingly consent to arbitration.

November " eteols.

There has been found so close a rela. l ton between the orbits of comets and l meteor streams that it is now believed the meteors are fragments of burst
 comets. When comet goes astray ii prances wildly through space awhile then bursts as is supposed. The frag. ments follow on around the sun in the same course as the comet did. The comet disappears and the fragments take it's place. Being of all sizes, they naturally spring out over a great dis tance and at length present the ap- pearance of a ring of fragments follow ing one another around the sun. The orbit in which they travel sometimes crosses that of the planets. When our
 earth passes through this string of me- teors, those that are near enough to us to touch our atmosphere are ignited
 and fall to the earth with remarka-
 bly dull thud.
 Twice year the earth passes
 through meteor rings, once about the
 10th of August and again the 12th of
 November. It 1t well to be on the look
 out for night or two before and after
 those dates if one would take in the
 whole display. Some years the show is
 marvelously brilliant, the whole sky
 appearing to rain stars The Novem-
 Der meteors are especially dazzling ev-
 cry thirty-three or thirty-fo,r years.
 The next great display will come in 1899 or 1900. The reason the November
 shooting stars are more numerous and
 bright every thirty-three or thirty four years is that the fragments of the com ct have not yet been evenly distribu- ted around the ring, and the earth on those years passes through the place where its head probably was.
 From the 10th to the 14th of Novem- Der the meteoric shower will occur. If the nights are clear, it will pay all who can get view of the open sky to catch natures great panorama. To young people the shooting stars will be especially interesting. Probably the night Of the 18th will be the best time if one goes on the lookout only one night They appear in fine array by nine o'clock
 They come principally from the same quarter Of the heavens. The meteors between the 10th and 14th of November take their rise mostly in the consteiia- ton Leo They are therefore called le- onids. They will come from q point in the heavens | little north of due east. It is the friction of moving through the earth's atmosphere at tremendous speed that makes them take fire. Only for that we slould not zee them. They are merely dark stones. stamford Ad- vocate.

CLEVELAND IS TO BLAME.
HENRY WArrBRsoy SAYS TUEs- DAYS DEFEAT Is HIS FAULT.

TarifY Reform has Got to 70 Down to the
 Foot and Then Start 0ver-The Presidcnt
 Has Never Been Csnsistent Tarir Re-
 former He Says.
 Cincinnati. Nov. 1.-The Tribune will tomorrow publish e sensational inter view with Hon. Henry watterson of Louisville.
 "who is to blame for Tuesdays de- featy' Colonel watterson was asked.
 "why. Cleveland, of course" said Mir. watterson. more than any other man on earth. It's all his fault"
 MT. Watterson said he did not know what was to become of the democratic party. He did not know whether the democratic party was a real political or- ganization or a mere agglomeration of factions. "One thing is certain," he re- marked. "Tariff reform has got to go down to the foot and start over. If l could make the platform in 1896 I would repeat in yet stronger language the
 
 platform of 1892. But tariff for reve- nue only must be advocated hereafter only by men who are honest enough to keep their promises and brave enough to put the principle into law when the people have given them the power. The Wilson bill was not demo- cratic measure, either before 1t left the hands of its author, or after it had been mangled and distorted by the senate"
 He declared that Mir. Cleveland had never been a consistent tariff reformer, and asserted that MT. Cleveland had deliberately sat on the wings of every able advocate of low tariff and forced the wretched Wilson bill upon the party with all its labyrinth of trou- ble.
 MT. Watterson further said that MT. Cleveland ought never to have been nominated. He predicted that an at- tempt would be made to commit the democratic party to the free silver her. esy and this might split the party or destroy it.

Lindsley will further investigate on the campus before he makes his report.
