Russia Is Said to Be Jealous OF Any Adj
vance in That Country.
WASHINGTON, July Sit IS said at
the japanese legation that there has
been no occupation of Corean terri
tory, except in accordance with the
treaty stipulations and for the purpose
of protecting japanese interests If
Russia has taken diplomatic cognizance
of the matter nothing is known of it
here, though such action is thought
not unlikely.
The presence of Chinese and japanese
troops in Corea is now a subject of
diplomatic correspondence between the
two countries and it was said it would
not be surprising if more extensive
trouble arose from what is now a mere
speck on the horizon. Russia is eX-
tremely jealous of any advances in
Corea by other European and Asiatic
countries. She now has but one port
of any Importance on the Pacific coast
and this is closed for six months in the
wear.

Eject of Overlooking Hens.

There is much similarity in the feed
ing habits of pigs and fowls. Both are
greedy and will eat too much if per-
mitted. And each are subject, as a
result of overeating, to paralysis of
the hind limbs, due to disease of the
spinal nerves. Fowls thus diseased
are hardly worth treating, as cure is
doubtful and recovery slow. 1t is bet
ter to kill the fowl and bury it out of
the way. A blister or application of
turpentine to the loies is often found
effective with pigs, but it is not easy
to apply these remedies to birds. One
ounce of grain food a day is quite
enough for a hen. The larger por-
ton of the food should be made up OF
green stuff, as grass, clover, or other
similar vegetable matter, with some
animal food of some kind.

The prevention of Gapes.

Gapes are the result of filth and
dampness, end occur among chicks
that are fed on the ground. Old farms
that have been occupied by poultry for
several years are more or less affected
by the gapeworms or their eggs in the
soil. The disease prevails wherever
earthworms are numerous, as the con-
ditions for earthworms and gapeworms
are the same. To avoid gapes scatter
air-slacked lime freely over the soil to
be occupied by chicks, spade it and ap-
ply more lime, using the lime literally,
and repeating the application once a
week. If this is properly done, so as
to have the lime cover every available
square inch of the soil, there will be
but a small liability of gapes among
chicks

The cause of Bitter Cream.

The reason for bitter cream is that it
is the result of keeping it too long, or.
in other words. of having old cream
Cream kept from SO to - hours is very
likely to be bitter. 1t is produced by
fermentation, which takes place at low
temperature rather than high when
the change is sufficient to produce bit
terness. While there are other causes
for bitter cream, as, for instance, bitter
weeds which the cows may feed on in
the pasture. yet the main cause is old
cream. Cream should be churned with

James Sullivan, of the Chicago Tribune,
Dies Very Suddenly.
CHICAGO, July 5.-James Sullivan,
political editor of the Chicago Tribune,
died suddenly yesterday afternoon in
the rooms of the Newspaper club.
Death resulted from heart disease or
apoplexy. Mr.. Sullivan had been in
unusual good spirits during the after
noon, the greater part of which he had
spent at the club, of which he was the
president, and which he had helped to
organize during last winter.
He was considered the best posted
man on the political situation in the
city among his fellow reporters He
was also prominently identified with
the cause of Irish liberty and at the
time of his death was hard at work
trying to get contributions to the Irish
parliamentary fund.

record of casualties in the strike con-

Early yesterday morning a blaze
started among some overturned cars at
Kensington. quickly communicating to
other tracks filled with long lines OF
cars, many containing valuable mer<
chandise, were soon blazing furiously-
Famed by strong winds, there were
at this point a total of eighty cars
wiped out. At the stock yards one
blaze after another was reported, and
from the outlying districts came
urgent calls for engines and police
protection, increasing in frequency

AT midnight all the cars in the yards
had been DESTROYED. The mob showed
much method in its incendiarism and
hundreds of cars were rifled and their
contents carried away before the torch
was applied. The loss in this yard to-
night is estimated at 81. 200. 900.

How to Promote Laying.

When the hens cease to lay a change
of food will sometimes start them to
laying again. and it may be that the
food will supply want. If the regu-
lar grain ration is given and no green
food can be obtained they will some
times get constipated, the result being
indigestion. To avoid this and also
afford a change give the hens oil cake
broken into suitable bits twice a
week, allowing a pound of oil cake tc
twenty hens. They will appreciate
the change and be benefited, as the oil
cake is cathartic in its tendency and
also highly heterogeneous food.

PROSPECT FOR PEACE.
China About Ready to Throw Up I'll

China About Ready to Throw Up the
Sponge.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The events of
the last few days, in which officials and
diplomats OF Washington have partici-
pated, lead them to believe that peace
between China and japan will be con-
cluded at an early day. China has at
last reluctantly but very fully admitted
that che found herself wholly unpre :
pared for war.
Japan, ON the other hand, smilingly
accepts thls ackno wledgment of her
progress and awaits a detailed PROPOSE
tion as to how much China will conced 8
as basis of peace. 1t remains to be
seen whether Japan will demand too
much or China will yield too little; but
the inclination of both countries is
strongly towards getting together.
1t is believed peace will be effected on
the basis of Corea's independence and a
cash indemnity for Japan's war expendi-
lures. If, however, Japan urges her
demands to the extent OF the cesson
of part of China's territory, the pros
pect is China will not humble her pride
to this extent. but will continue to pros
ecute the war as best she can, relying on
q bitter winter now at hand to give her
temporary respite and defense.
The foregoing is brief summary of
the situation asviewed by officials here,

| toward independent action on the part
of the South German states.
A demonstration of this spirit Of par
ticularism is found in the grand duke of
Baden appointing special envoys to the
courts of Stuttgart and Munich. Since
General Won Caprivi's dismissal the
grand duke of Baden has not concealed
his indignation at the unceremonious
and sudden ministerial disruption, and
he has taken this step in order to show
his disapproval.
The feeling OF apprehension respecting
the stability of the home policy OF Ger
many is amply justified by the minis
teriai changes which every body now
agrees to be imminent. Prince Hohen-
lobe is determined every member of the
cabinet shall be in entire harmony with
his views. Besides the important
changes already known, it is announced
today that DR.. Boetticher, imperial sec
retary of state for the interior, and vice.
president OF the Prussian council OF min
listers, has rendered his resignation. Tn Q
half-hearted denial of this statement
only tends to confirm it, and an official
announcement of his resignation is ex-
pected within few days. Notice is also
published today of the appointment of
Herr Won Hammerstein as Prussian
minister OF agriculture.
The independence OF the new chan
cellor is a matter of common knowledge
and he has more than once shown
disposition to assert his authority to the
utmost. This determination to have his
own way, however, is just what ia res
garded as the element of insecurity in
the situation. The prince will brook no
n hrlH nd 1n1a IN f,ylI
quiesces in his views as to the compost
, tion of the two cabinets, and in regard
to important questions OF policy, there
will be another ministerial crisis right
off.
The postponement OF the opening of
the reichstag from November Is to De-
cember Is is due to Prince Hohenlohe's
intention to supplant the Objectionable
members of the imperial and Prussian
cabinets before commencing Legislative
work.
Virtually nothing can be done before
the Christmas recess, but on the res
opening of the reic1stag the anti-revo-
lutionary bill and the budget will be
disposed of, after which the rechstag
will have to consider a number of i'm
portaDt measures.
