WAR RUMOR UNCONFIRMED.
China and Japan, However, Seem to
He ON the Very brink.

LONDON, July PA London representa-
tive of the press visited the Japanese lega-
ton here 10 learn. if possible, whether the
report was true that war had been declared
between China and Japan. because of the
difference between the two powers in re-
gard TO Corea. No official denial or confir-
nation of the report could be had. but the
whole staff of the legation made no at
tempt TO disguise their delight at the
thought of war with China. At the Chinese
legation IL was stated that no news of
declaration of had been received. 1t
was added that If the rumor were true, the
first report OF il would come from Japan
and not from China. Another visit was
made to the Chinese legation tonight. The
officials stated that no late news had been
received owing TO an interruption or the
cable service. The latest information re-
ten thousand Chinese troops had started
for Corea- japan had rejected the pro-
pOSals made by the British minister. al
though the latter had counseled a peaceful
settlement OF the dispute. The Chinese gov
eminent had thereupon declared that I'M
less the Japanese troops were withdrawn
from Seoul and Chemulpo China would
break off the negotiations. The officials,
when further questioned, said they dis
credited the rumor that war had been de-
clared. Inquiries were also made at the
Foreign Office but il was stated that no
news had been received there.
A telegram from Yokohama received to-
night, states that the acceptance by Corea
or the reforms proposed by japan is con-
dftional on the Withdrawal of the japanese
troops from COrea. The Japanese govern
ment was surprised at this firm stand,
which is supposed 10 prove that Chinese in
nuence IS paramount in Corea. In the di-
China has so far ignored the japanese
counter proposals.

HENRY u. NORTHROP, Cashier.
This step on the part of the bank officials
is undoubtedly due to the setback which
the bank received last April, when II sut-
fered a heavy run. and its affairs were eX-
examined into by State Superintendent
Preston It's capital was found unimpared,
but its original surplus of 100000 was dis
covered to have dwindled away TO almost
nothing. The bank successfully weathered
the very heavy run. but though il was Off
cially declared solvent and its directors
were known TO be rich and reliable, few of
the depOsitOrs who withdrew their accounts
resumed their business relations with the

Putting wolves to Death by Torture.


One use Of the whalebOne to which
the Eskimos put it, and one case OF
which came under my personal observa-
ton, l must not allow TO pass unnotlced.
Whenever wolves have been unusually
predatory, have DESTROYED a favOrite dog
or SO, or dug up q cache OF reindeer
meat Just when it was needed, or in any
way have aroused the ire of the Innult
hunter, he takes a strip of whalebone
about the size of those used in cOrsets,
wraps it up into a compact helical mass
like watch spring, having previously
sharpened both ends, then ties 1t to-
gether with reindeer sinew and plasters
it with compound Of blood and grease,
which is allowed to freeze and forms q
binding cement sufficiently strong to
hold the sinew string at every second Or
third turn. This, with q lot of similar
looking bats of meat and blubber, is
scattered over the snow or ground, and
the hungry wolf devours it along with
the others, and when it is thawed out
by the warmth of his stomach it elOn-
gates and has the well known effect of
whalebOne on the system, but having
the military advantage of interior lines
its effects are more rapid, killing the
poor wolf, with the most horrible
agonies, in couple Of days.-From an
Interview With Eugene Melville, Q. S.
