Washington, Nov. 19.-The statement
was made in congressional circles today
that President Cleveland's message t6
Congress would throw light on the
China-Japan question and would fore
stall any resolution of inquiry.
AS the secretary OF state, unlike any
other cabinet officer, makes no annual
report to Congress, the presidents mes,
sage ordinarily deals with the affairs
in which this government has any part
and as the recent negotiations with
China and Japan are the most i'm
portant questions the department has
had in some time, it is concluded that
MIR. Cleveland will make clear the posi-
tion Of this government.
Up to the present time there is no
official information on the subject and
the state department has not even
stated officially that negotiations with
China and Japan are in progress.
The reading Of the presidents mes
sage is the first business in Congress,
SO that it would precede the contem-
plated Introduction of resolutions of in
quiry by representative Bellamy
Storer.
1t is the belief Of those familiar with
President Cleveland's position against
foreign entanglements that such re-
ference as he may make to the subject
in his message will be on the ground
of humanity, urging that while this gov
eminent need not reach abroad for con-
quest and acquisitions, it can we'll adopt
an enlightened policy which will aid
in maintaining the peace and progress
pf the world.

SILVER MEN WILL MAKE A DE.
MAND on REPUBLICANS.
Platform of 1896 Must Contain an
Uneuui,acaI Declaration in Favor
of the Unqualified Free Coinage
of Silver.


Minneapolis, Nov. 19.-The Gary, S. D.,
correspondent of the Journal wires the
following information obtained from the
amanuensis of one of the leaders of the
movement: For several months an
understanding has existed among the
leading silver men of the United States
that an emphatic demand shall be made
that the Republican platform of 1896 shall
'contaln an unequivocal declaration in
favor OF unqualified free coinage of
silver and in the event of failure of the
Republicans so to declare. new party
movement shall forthwith be sprung
With two-plank platform, declaring
simply for protection and free coinage.
The management of the movement is
largely in the hands of Senators Jones'
Stewart and Pettigrew and they are
looking to Senator Cameron as a preSi-
Dental candidate in the event of the
birth of the new party. The results of
the recent election have given the lead
ers renewed confidence, as they now be-
lieve they will be able to absorb the
remnants of the Populists and secure
through protective plank the adhesion
of the labor vote in the east. Thus they
strength and much of the labor vote of
the country.
My informant is positive in the de-
claration that the Republican party will
be forced to either adopt silver plank
or be destroyed. This intention of rule
or ruin is the fundamental tenet of the
movement. 1t is even said that Senator
Cameron has already consented to head
the revolt"

A QUESTION OF PATENTS.
Arguments of Far-Reaching Impor-
lance Made in New York Ycster-
day.

Washington, Nov. 19.-The argument
in the United States SupremesCourt in
the case of the Bate Refrigerating
company against Ferdinand Sulzber-
ger & Co., which has aroused so much
interest because of the far-reaching eff
feet that the decision may have on
the lives of American patents, includ-
ing Bell telephone patents, wherever
foreign patents have first been issued,
was closed today by James c. Carter
of New York, who appeared for the
Bate company. Mr.. Carter, in his ar
gument today, compared the acts of
1885, 1899 and 1870 with section 4,SS7 of
the revised statutes, and dwelt at
length on the intention of Congress in
the enactment of these statutes. He
contended for a liberal, rather than
literal, Interpretation of the law in the
case and argued that a system which,
between individuals, would offer re-
ward for a service and then abridge ii
for such reason as they contended for
in the present case, would be diShon-
est. He contended that it was prepos-
ferrous for the government to impose
the penalty of the loss of the three
most useful years of an American pat
ent because a foreign government had
patent, when the fault for this delay
rested with the American government
itself. To protect his patent abroad
the inventor applies for a foreign pat
ent, and in so doing cannot well inn
agine that if the foreign patents should
be issued in advance of his American
patent, his rights in his own country
will be abridged or that any damage
would arise to his interests. Previous
to 1876. when Mr.. Bate applied for his
patent, MI Carter claimed that no
hostility had ever been SHOWN by our
patent system to. the obtaining OF pat
ents abroad. On the contrary, that
practice, while never disfavored, had
been distinctly encouraged since 1885
by our laws. both because it furnished
an additional stimulus to the inventor
and prevented that Disadvantage to

Tacoma, Wash, Nov, 19.-Japan will
have control of the worlds supply of
carnphor should it get the island of
Formosa as part of its indemnity from
China, according to Anthony T. Pitch
ard, who lived many years in Asia
"Camphor sold for less than 10 cents

vanced TO over 81 per pound It is
generally believed by Japanese mer-
chants and travellers that if Japan
had not been drawn into war with
China it would have seized the Ha-
waiian islands on the ground that there
are more japanese there than any 9th

the move to secure Formosa as in line
