FOR ASTANDING ARMY
GENERAL CURTIS PROPOSES THAT
EVERY MAN BE MADE TO SERVE.
Plan for n Huge United States Re-
serve Militia Which Will Hardly
BE Popular.

WASHINGTON. July 1.-The increasing
Importance of the militia for quelling in
ternal disturbances and it's potential
strength in case of threatened war has
led General Curtis. of New York, who is
an enthusiast upon military matters, to
embody his plans for a national militia
organization in a bill. The bill has re-
ceived the sanction of the House commit
tee on militia, and although probably it
will not secure a hearing this session, may
be called up next session. General Curtis
proposed that the militia shall consist of
every able-bodied citizen between the ages
of eighteen and forty-five, the organiza-
ton to be known as the National Guard
of the States and the unorganized as the
reserve militia. The organization of the
former Will be made to conform as close
ly as possible to that of the regular army.
The national guard, according to the
plan, could be called into action by the
President or by an act of Congress, while
only an act of Congress could call out the
reserve militia, the President having
power to call on the Governors of States
for the needed forces of the guarc In
case of invasion or danger Of invasion
from foreign foes. Indian uprising or re-
bellion against the authority of the gov
eminent, specifying in his call the period
of service required with the limitation OF
nine months. The national guard or re-
serve militia when in service would be
subject to the same rules and articles of
war as the regular troops of the United
States, and would be entitled TO the same
pay and allowances. For the maintenance
of the militia organizations the plan con-
templates an annual appropriation Of $4OU.-
900 to be apportioned among the States and
Territories, and 10 be disbursed for arms,
ordnance, stores ana equipments under
the direction of the Secretary of War, no
State being entitled to a share unless il
has enlisted and uniformed at least one
resentative in Congress-, to which it is
entitled. Provisions for annual encamp-
ments under the supervision of officers of
the regular army are made, and various
persons are exempted from service, officials
OF the government, Mariners, pilots and
employees of railroads used in military or
postal service being the principal classes.

OLNEY WILL NOT HAVE 1T.
Big Suit Against the Railroads i'm Cali
fOrnia to Be Dismissed.

Los ANGELES. Cal, July 81. United
States District Attorney Denis was to-day
shown a dispatch from Washington in
which it is stated that Encouragement
Olney has decided to dismiss, the suit re-
Gently begun in the federal court by Denis
against the Southern Pacific and some thir-
ty-five other railroad companies. The suit
is in the nature of a petition in equity. and
alleges that the railroad companies named
have unlawfully combined together in re-
straint of trade and commerce. The Wash
ington dispatch quotes Encouragement
Olney as determined to dismiss the suit, as
he had not authorized it, and is displeased
that such action was taken by District At
torney Denis. Mr.. Denis was astonished
when shown this Washington dispatch.
Il have heard nothing of the kind" said
he, nor have / received amy intimation to
that effect. OF this / assure you"
'Will you dismiss the case if Mr.. Olney
orders you to do SOP" he was asked.
You can easily understand that i can
not discuss such a point at present" he re-
piled.
Mr.. Denis is convinced of the Justice of
his big suit, and is eager to push it.
A dispatch from Washington says: At
torney-general Olney has not directed

HARD TO GET NEWS.
Secretary Gresham Stirring Up China
and Japan Offices.

WASHINGTON, July 31.-The State De-
partment is seriously concerned at the lack
OF official news at this critical j%uncture
from China and Japan. nothing having been
received from our representatives in those
countries since the brief dispatch of Sun
day from Mr.. Denby's charge d'affaires at
Pekin, stating that hostilities had broken
out, and that war was inevitable. Secre-
tary Gresham has accordingly cabled to
Mr.. Denby's charge d'affaires and to Min
lister Dunn. at Toxic. directing them to
promptly report to him any happenings Of
Importance. and il is expected that the de-
partment will be better informed hereafter.
Ii appears that the British government has
had trouble in communicating with its dip
lomatic representatives in China and Japan.
and there is ground for suspicion that o.
stacles are purposely being interposed 10
take the freedom of communication between
"A neutral government and its diplomatic
representatives. which is guaranteed by III
ternational law. Should this be the case.
the government responsible is likely to re-
ceive a severe remonstrance.

TO STRIKE is TO INTERFERE.
Judge Williams, However: Let's Two


strikers Go on N TechnfcaIity.
ST. PAUL, July 31.-The trial of William
Best and Albert Kellett, the engineer and
fireman of the Eastern Minnesota, which
they abandoned on the line, was brought
to a sudden stop to-day by the failure of
the United States TO make a case OF con-
spiracy to delay the mails. This was the
principal indictment against them, although
there was another indictment for the inter-
ference itself. Judge Williams ordered a
verdict for the defendants in the first in
dictment. The others will be tried in jan
uary.
AN engineer who abandons a mail train
is guilty of a violation of the United States
statute relative to rdtarding the mails"
Judge Williams announced this fact in
ruling upon the indictment against engin-
eer William Best and fireman Albert Kei-
lett. He directed al acquittal of the men
on the charge of conspiracy to do an I'M
lawful act because of the failure of proof,
but he clearly stated that he thought them
guilty of the charge of retarding the mail
in deserving their train on a main line. The
principal thing the strikers were anxious
to have established in the case was that a
man could legally abandon his train. but
the Judge decided the other way. This rul-
ing was also desired by the railroad COM
pany much more than a conviction of the
men on trial.

CHEN YUEN NOT SUNK
ANOTHER REPORT FROM SHANGHAI
DENIES THE sECOND BATTLE.
China Now Expected to Fight Japan
to the Bitter End-News Mea-
ger and Faulty.

SHANGHAI, July 31.-News has just
been received here of a desperate battle
between the fleets of China and Japan. in
which the Chinese were defeated and the
Chen-Yuen, the largest battle ship but
one in the Chinese service, was sunk and
two other large Chinese vessels, said TO
be first-class cruisers, were captured or
destroyed. The battle was hotly contest
ed. but the japanese appear to have
handled their guns. ships and torpedoes
with more skill than the Chinese. The
Chinese fleet engaged carried nearly a
thousand men and a large number OF them
are reported to have been killed or
drowned. Later dispatches say that few II
any of the Chinese engaged in the battle
escaped. Two German officers in ommand
of the Chen-Yuen are reported to have met
death with the crew of that vessel.
TIEN-TSIN, July 31.-A naval battle was
fought yesterday between the Chinese and
japanese fleets. The japanese sunk the
Chinese battle ship Chen-Yuen and
two large cruisers, supposed to be
the vessels built for China by
the Armstrong;, were captured or de-
stroyed by the Japanese. The Chen-Yuen
was a battle ship of 400 tons displace-
ment, carrying fourteen and one-half inch
es compound armor at the water line. Her
battery included four twelve-inch guns,
protected by an armored breastwork, and
two smaller Krupps. She was also fur
nished with eleven Hotchkiss cannon and
tubes for Whitehead torpedoes. In addi-
ton the Chen-Yuen had TWO eight-and-one-
quarter-inch and six-inch Krupps in her
main battery, and a secondary battery of
Hotchkiss revolving cannon. The Chen
Yuen was built for China at the Stettin
works. She was a sister ship of the Ting
Yuen, and was the most powerful war
ship in the Chinese navy with the exception
of the Ting-Yuen. 81

TO THE BITTER END.
China Has No other Alternative Since
the Naval Battle.

LONDON, Aug. 1.-The correspondent OF
the Times at Pekin says that a startling
and painful impression has been caused in
government circles, and also among the
members of the diplomatic corps, by the
new of the sinking by a Japanese cruiser
of the Chineses transport Kow Shing and
the loss of SO many lives. According to the
reports received at Pekin, only eleven men
of the two thousand aboard the kow Shing
were saved. The attitude or the ChlneSe
government since it learned of the loss OF
the troop ship has completely changed.
Hitherto it has been conciliatory, but the
indications now are that she will pursue
the wal against Japan with the utmost
vigor. Ii Hung Chang, the Niceroy, In an
interview at Tien-Tsin. recently. declared
that if war were once provoked emma
would fight TO the bitter end. 1t is the
opinion of all that the provocation has been
given. A cablegram from Yokohama says:
1.-The following official statement or the
difficulties between China and Japan which
led to the outbreak of hostilitieS between
those two countries has been issued py the
Japanese government:
Japan and China were approaching a
settlement of their difficulties when China
suddenly requested Japan to withdraw her
fleet from Corea and to give a formal COM
pliance with the Chinese demand by the
10Th, otherwise the whole Chinese forces
were to land and a sea advance on the part
of China was TO be made. The japanese re-
garded this as an ultimatum, but, acting
under the advice of the friendly powers,
they agreed TO the proposals in principle.
in amended form, at the same time declar-
ing that if the threatened Chinese advance
were made on the 10Th it would be regarded
as an overt act. 1t is conjectured that the
Japanese naval commanders were instruct
ed to be on the watch for the Chinese war
ships, and, seeing the latter advancing on
July q, they opened fire. The Japanese do
not believe that the Kow Shiny, the Chi
nese transport sunk by a japanese cruiser,
was flying the British, flag, but were that
the case they regard it as being a ruse.
The Japanese Indignantly deny the charges
of brutality brought against the officers or
crew of the cruiser which sunk the Kow
Shing. No official report has been re-
ceived at Yokohama of this engagement.

GEN. sCHoFIELD's ORDER.
Gtrikers Were to BE shot Down by
SharpshoOters ut Chicago.


WASHINGTON, July 31-The leaders of
the riotous mobs who confronted the
United States regular troops during the
progress of the great strike probably did
not realize how perllously near they stood
TO violent death, for not only were the
troops fully authorized to shoot into the
mobs. but the commanding officers were
instructed to detail sharpshooters to shoot
larly active. AL this is made evident by
general order No. %. which was made pub
lie at the War Department to-day.
Not for many years had the United States
troops been so generally in active service
as during the strike. and consequently
many commanding officers were somewhat
in doubt as to their powers and duties I'M
der the complex laws and regulations
touching the use OF troops. To meet this
demand for exact information General
Schofield issued general order No. %. 1t
was dated July 8, and officers were in
structed TO regard it as confidential. be-
cause IL was feared that it's publication
at the time would further infiame the ex-
cited and wles mobs. The full text Of
the order is as follows:
"A mob. forclbly resisting or obstructing
the execution of the laws of the United
states or attempting to destroy property

Troops called into action against such a
mob are governed by the general regula-
tions OF the army and military tactics in
respect TO the manner in which they shall
act to accomplish the desired end. Il is
purely a tactical question in what manner
they shall use the weapon with which
they are armed-whether by the fire of
musketry and artillery. or by the use OF
the bayonet and sabre. or by both. and at
