The Chinese Japanese war contin
ues to rage, and the reports from the
scene Of conflict are as conflicting as
ever. 1t takes long time to get the
facts in regard to the various battles,
but when they are finally attained
they invariably show Japanese tri-
umphs. The principal scene of the
war is now at Port Arthur, which the
Japanese have practically surrounded,
and which must fall into their hands
very soon, if it has not already done
so. This strongly fortified place is
considered an almost vital strategic
point, and it's capture by the Japanese
may be expected to be followed by an
almost unhindered march into the in
terror of China, and upon the Chi
nese capital. Already the Japanese
army is advancing upon the Chinese
fortified places near the coast, and
overwhelming their garrisons almost
without an effort. The end of the
war by the complete subjugation of
China cannot be far distant, unless
the proposition to refer the dispute
to the arbitration of other nations is
accepted at once

COTTON MIIIS IN THE SOUTH.
North Carolina Leads in the Number of
spindles and Her Sister In Looms.

BALTIMORE. March e-The location
Of every cotton mill i'm the South, with

North Carolina leads in the number OF
spindles, with $4,000 in operation In 1894,
while South Carolina leads in looms with

list, with $4,000 spindles

ture in the South has Increased from
