Interesting Gossip From Oriental
Papers Received by Mail.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 3O.-The Jap
anese papers received by the steamer
Gaelic last night are up to July 16, no
later date than those which were
brought by the Empress Of Japan to
Vancouver last Friday. The leading
items of Corean news were telegraphed
from, Vancouver. but few interesting
particulars were omitted.
The Yokohama papers are filled with
rumors of war, but most of the accounts
lack confirmation. According to teIe-
gram dated Shanghai, July 10, Gen.
Lieut.. Min Chuan is reported 10 have
declined to go to Curea as commander
in-chief of the Chinese army. He is
said to have excused himself OIL the
ground of eye disease.
The Nichi Nichi Seoul correspondent
says:
ut is reported that the Chinese gen.
eral. under the pretense of paying
homage to the king. is on his way to
Seoul at the head of troops hitherto
stationed at Asan. According to an
other report Chinese troops, instead Of
marching on Seoul. will remain for the
present at Su Wan"
The Japan Mails version is likely to
be true, because 1t stated some time
ago that the road had been placed under
repair between Asan and Su Wan for
the passage of Chinese troops.
The alleged dispute between the Jap
anese minister, NJ. Otori. and Maj. Gen.
Oshima is said to have been occasioned
by recent proclamation of the Chinese
commander, Sheh, abiding to Corea as
Chinese dependency. On receiving
this news the Japanese commander be-
came highly indignant at the insult
that the proclamation contained to-
wards Corea, and insisted upon in
stantly marching his army against the
Chinese troops at ASau. and demanding
an apology from the Chinese general.
NJ. Otori of course advocated the milder
torn and automatically asked for the
revocation Of the offensive aliusion.
After animated discussions between the
general and the minister, the latter's
opinion at last prevailed, and the OBJ
noXious words are stated to have been
revoked by the Chinese commander.

CHINA Is AFTER ARMS.
And British Spectators Will
Profit by Her Needs.


LONDON. July 80. - The English
houses having dealings with the Chinese
evidently do not intend to allow the
commencement of hostilities between
China and Japan TO pass without trying
to make the most of this opportunity of
increasing their bank accounts. Lon
don firms alone during the last fort
night have offered China several bar
gains in torpedo boats, and they have
also proposed that the Pekin govern
ment shall purchase a number of fast
English steamers which. their owners
claim, can readily be converted into
cruisers.
lu addition, these obliging English
merchants have offered China nearly
1000 guns of all sizes and styles. as we'll
as fresh lot of 100000 Mannlicher
rifles. with almost any amount of car
tridges. When these offers were first
made the Chinese government took no
notice OF them, but today several of
these enterprising English firms have
received communications from China,
saying that rapid delivery will be the
condition of the lie. The quotations
of Chinese and Japanese securities and
exchange do not show even a fractional
difference from their normal figures.

DAMAGED THE JAPS,
Celestials Claim to Have Disabled
an Attacking Gunbnat.

PEKIN. July 30.-The following is the
Chinese official version OF the engage
ment which recently took place between
the Chinese and Japanese fleets:
The collision between the Chinese and
Japanese ships occurred in the Prince
jerome gulf, in tine inlet on when Asan
is situated.
The Japanese attacked the Chinese
vessels which were escorting the second
and smaller division of trOOpS dis
patched from Taku to reinforce the
Chinese army at Asan. The Japanese
opened fire, the Chinese having strict
orders not to fire unless they were at
tackled, or if the landing of the Chinese
troops were.Opposed.
The result Of the action was that one
Japanese ironclad was disabled by the
Chinese 'battleship Chen Yuen. The
Kow Shnng, which was sunk by the
Japanese, was chartered transport,
flying the British flag.
No news has been received here re-
garding the loss of the Chinese war ship
Tsao Kan, said to have been captured
by the Japanese
The Chinese and Japanese ministers
remain at their posts.

WASHINGTON. July so. = 1t is the
opinion of diplomats here that the jap
anese have made grave error In sink
ing the transport Kow Shing. and one
that is likely to cost them much money
in reparation, besides the humiliation
or an apology. The Kow Shing was one
of line of coasting steamers belonging
to Hugh MatEeisOn q Co., and trading
between Chinese ports. The vessel was
under the British flag when she. was
sunk. Although she carried Chinese
troops to Corea, it is said here that SHE
did not, in so doing, violate The law OF
neutrality, for there has been no dec
laration Of war or open acknowledgment
by either China or Japan that war
prevails.
The vessel. therefore, was engaged in
legitimate traffic. and the Japanese are
likely te pay dearly for siuking her and
destroying the lives of the ships CON-
pany.
An interesting explanation of the
present attitude of Japan towards
China was furnished by a-diplomatist
of much experience in Asiatic affairs.
He first pointed out the fact that inter-
nal conditions in Japan are, and have
been for some time, very much dis
turbed. There has been great friction
between the mikado and his cabinet On
the one side and the parliament and
people on the other. This steadily in
creased until the parliament actually
passed resolution requesting the
mikadO to remove his cabinet and
replace it by other men more nearly in
accord with their ideas, which are dis
tlnctly reactionary and marked by re-
sentiment at the presence Of foreigners
in Japan and the extension of modern
civiliZing systems.
The emperor's answer came quick and
sharp in a decree proruSuiDg the par.
lament. This added TO the popular
feeling Of dissatisfaction. the govern
ment became alarmed, the date of the
election OF the new parliament drew
near, and some heroic measure was
necessary to prevent an overwhelming
defeat, the result OF which might be TO
turn Japan backward i'll the march
toward civilization, and perhaps over
throw the emperor himself.
The Japanese relations to Corea,
growing out of the obstacles to trade
with that country, with its limitation
on the fisheries and upon the number
of ports open to Japanese trades, were
in very unsatisfactory state, and this
with the state of domestic affairs led
the Japanese government TO adopt
very vigorous foreign policies, in which
it is quite sure OF popular support. &.

RICH HAS The RING SOLID.
Pingree Withdraws in. Disgust
From the michigan Republican


Race.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, July 3d.
Nearly all the delegates to the Repub-
Iican state convention TO be held here
tomorrow and large number of other
politicians are in the city tonight. In
fact, most of them have been here
since early in the day, and Mayor Pin
gree, of Detroit, who has been i'll the
race for the gubernatorial nomination,
has been here since Sunday noon. There
has been great strife and much bitter
ness between the Pingree forces and
friends of Gov. Rich. and 1t was ex-
pected the convention would be lively
and interesting, but the greatest
element of excitement has been taken
out of the contest by today'S develop
ments. 1t is evident that Rich will
have an overwhelming majority in the
convention, and this evening Mayor
Pingree has written letter Ito the
Republicans of Michigan" in which he
announces that his name will not be
presented to the convention. He declares
his loyalty to the party and lis princi-
pies, but denOuuceS the methods by
which the governor has secured a ma
iority of the delegates to favor his re-
nomination. Nearly all the state Off
GERS, elective and appointive. are here
as delegates or as workers for Gov.
Rich. 1t is understood that the Pins rec
men have decided to cast blank ballots
Oh the nomination for governor. then
help to nominate the remainder of the
ticket and adopt the platform. After
the convention mass meetings will be
held in all sections of the state, and
Pingree will be asked to run as an indie
pendent Republican candidate. He
will accept, and his name will be sub
stituted for that of Gov. Rich at the
head OF the ticket.

MANCHEs TER, N. H., July 30.-From
5 O'Clock yesterday afiernoo on until this
evening, this city was entirely cut off
from the outside world by telegraph and
telephone, result of the most disas-
trous storm that has visited this section
in years.
AT Lake Massabesic. four miles from
the city. the storm was accompanied by
cyclone, which wrecked buildings,
blew down large trees and destroyed
much valuable property.
Shortly before 5 O'clock IN the after
noon, when the thermometer registernA
100 degrees in the shade, the first -
struck. In thirty minutes the mercury
dropped Is degrees, heavy haze set
tied over the city, the rain fell in tor
rents, and for forty-fve minutes light
ming played about the taller buildings
of the city and did much damage, sew
eral churches and residences being
struck and one house set on fire.
At Lake Massabesic the wind devel-
oped into cyclone. Eighteen or twenty
summer cottages were partially
wrecked, and half that number nearly
demolished. The end of big dance
hall was blown off, and the entire
section wrecked. The rest of the
building was moved from its foundation
and much damaged. There were scores
of pleasure boats on the lake when the
storm struck, and it is feared that some
of them did not reach shore. Two small
steamers were damaged, another badly
wrecked, and half dozen smaller'boats
nearly swamped. Numerous barns and
outbuildings IN the vicinity were
demolished.
About o'clock another shower del
uged the city, and high wind added
to the damage of the afternoon, but the
destruction of property was not SO
great
AT GOffstown. during the first storm,
hail stones as large as walnuts fell, and
lightning did considerable damage.
As far as can he learned no lives were
lost, although several persons were
severely injured. The destruction Was
so widespread in this section and means
OF communication are so, completely
Frustrated that the full extent of the
damage may not be known before to-
morrow.

New York Liquor Dealers Dare
Him to Enforce Satolli's Decree
Ills Reply.
NEW YORK, July 3O.-The World will
tomorrow say: Archbishop Corrigan has
written a very important letter to the
editor of the Wine and Spirit Gazette,
in which he makes an authoritative
statement with regard to the decision of
Mgr. Satolli affecting Roman Catholic
liquor dealers.
The archbishop's letter was called
forth by an editorial recently published
in the Gazette. which says Of Mgr. Sa-
tolii's decision: Twill it be enforced
in the cities of the country? Fully two
thirds of the retail liquor dealers of
the country are Roman Catholics.
Some of these are liberal con-
trbutors to the church funds. We
appreciate fully the delicate position in
which Archbishop Corrigan and other
bishops of the Catholic church i'll this
country are placed by the decree of the
papal delegate. We voice the senti-
ments of a large majority of
the liquor dealers of this city
and Brooklyn, in saying: we
dare Archbishop Corrigan to enforce
in letter and in spirit the decree against
the liquor traffic just issued by Mgr.
Satolli, the papal delegate. Let the
archbishop do it, and watch the conse-
quences.'"
THE ARCHBIsHoP's LETTER
is in his own handwriting. In it he
says:
I'm reply to your expressed wish. 1
have the honor to say that l Loyalty ac-
cept the principles laid down by Mgr.
Satolli both in their spirit and to the
letter. More than this, no Catholic can
refuse to accept them.
''As to the fear of consequences. l
have vet, thank God, to learn what fear
is in the discharge of my duty. Please
remember, however. that acceptance OF
principles is not TO be confounded with
the blind application Of the same on all
occasions and under all circumstances.

CHICAGO, July 30.-A. P. Martz, of
Hong Kong. who arrived in Chicago to-
day, en- route to Paris, and who owns a
large line of steamers plying between
Hong Kong and Tonquin. expresses the
belief that Japan will be victor in the
war with China, if the struggle is
short one.
"The japanese are much the better
fighters" said MIR. MartZ, land have a
much superior navy. The Chinese,
however, have the advantage in large
numbers. great wealth and unlimited
credit, anu, should the war be long
one, the forces of the mikado are
likely to be defeated. Japan is not
financially able TO long maintain the
struggle, and the Chinese nave count
less thousands of men to take the
places of those killed in battle. The
Chinese have number of small gun
boats which will prove effective III
naval engagements. Unless the Japan
csc are able to decide the matter within
a short time, their forces are, think,
doomed to defeat"
