Shanghai, Aug. 12.-The Japanese
squadron that attacked Wie-Hai-Wei,
Friday, reports of which engagement
were cabled to the Associated Press
yesterday, consisted of twenty-six yes
sells.
1t is not definitely known how many
of the fleet were men-of-war. The
warships drew up in line of battle off
the fort and opened fire early Friday
morning. There were no Chinese war
ships in the vicinity, and the engage
ment was entirely between the Japanese
men-of-yar and the forts. The where
abouts Of the Chinese fleet was I'M
known. The forts, however were able,
without much difficulty, to repulse the
attack About fifty shots were eX-
changed, but no material damage was
done on either side. The soldiers man
ming the guns of the Notifications
showed themselves to be lamentably
deficient in craftsmanship. Most of their
shots were ill-directed, the shells either
falling short of the vessels aimed at, or
going wide of the mark
When the fleet withdrew to Fort
Arthur which place it attacked Friday
evening, little, if any, damage was
done. The operations are regarded as
having been no attempts to conquer
Wei-Hai-Wei, or Fort Arthur, but sim
ply ruses on the part of the japanese
commander to ascertain the exact po-
sition and strength of the Chinese guns
at the two places.
On Thursday last, two small gun
boats were sighted going at full speed
IN the direction of Tien TSin.

Washington, Aug. 12.-The hope is
ent one will be the last week of the
session.
This is based upon the belief that the
tariff bill vii be disposed of in some
way early in the week, and with the
tariff out of the way, final adjourn
ment can be brought about at almost
any time.
None of the appropriation bills, with
the exception of the sundry civil and
the general deficiency, are yet to be
acted upon to any extent by either
House, and these two are in such an
advanced stage in conference that a
day of jealous work would probably
suffice to put them both in shape to be
sent to the president. The Chinese
treaty is the only other business that
will keep Congress for a day, and this
question is to be taken up and voted
upon at the first session.
The Senate adjourned on Friday after
giving the greater part of the day to
the treaty. There was an understand
ing that the Senate should go into
executive session on Monday immediate
ly after the reading of the journal, to
take a vote upon the treaty. 1t was
also agreed TINS should be done With
out further debate.
The order of business for tomorrow,
presumably after the tariff has been
passed, will be Senator Chambers reso-
luton for the investigation of the
Alabama election. After this all is I'M
certain. Almost everything will depend
upon the action of the House on the
tariff bill, but whatever that action
may be. it can be counted upon as
quite certain the two remaining appro-
priation bills will receive consideration
some time during the week.
The conference on the sundry civil
bill has been already largely disposed of,
and it is not probable much more time
will be spent upon it. The conference
committee on the general deficiency
bill has been in session all day, not
withstanding it is Sunday, and it was
believed it would be in shape for early
presentation to both houses.
lf, therefore, the House should de-
eide to accept the Senate amendments
to the tariff bill, the Senate could be
prepared to suspend proceedings on al
most any day after Tuesday. If the
House should decide upon an opposite
course, there is no saying what would
happen in the Senate. The tariff is en-
crossing the attention of the House
and it has so far no programme what
ever for the week.

Omaha, Aug 12.--Today definitely de-
termined the course Of the state Of
ficers in reference to the presence of
troops to keep south Omaha strikers
quiet.
All was so quiet that the Omaha
Guards and Thurston Rifles were re-
leased. and only the three companies
from the interior of the state will be
retained at the scene for a day os so
longer.
Probably two-thirds of the strikers
have returned to work. or will do so
tomorrow. and the balance would if
they could secure positions.
ct is my Intention" said General
Colby, "to keep the balance of the
companies here until Tuesday morning,
when the men can go direct to Lincoln
to attend the state encampment. Ger
tainly if the situation does not ap-
pear favorable to peace at that time,
the men will not be allowed to leave,
With all the men at Lincoln 1t would
be a handy matter to get them here.
All arrangements have been made
there for the men and l don't think it
would be best to change under the cir
cumstances.
MY reasons for thinking there will
be no serious trouble from now on is
the manner of the men who are out.
They all seem to be peaceable and
quiet. I have it officially from the
packers that many of the men are COM
ing back to work. and 1t seems to me
that the trouble is nearing an end.
do not anticipate any more trouble
whatever, but we propose to take all
precautions.
All the other companies of the bri-
gade who were notified to be in readi-
ness to start for south Omaha have
been notified by General Colby that
their services will not be required.

FLAGS AND THEIR MEANING.
The Origin of the Design of the
Union Jack

Next to our own flag, that of Great
Britain interests us most 1t is called

White field was added. The union of the
three countries is thus Indicated on the

iand remains as before and is the central
feature of the flag, dividing it into four
quarters, occupied by the ST. Andrews
crosses, the white of Scotland and the
red of Ireland, which are placed side BY
side.
Aboard British war ship the "union"
is holsted only when the queen or an
5 aamira l. is aboard. English ships sail
are three klnds-white, blue and red
each with the union in a square in the
upper part of the hoist, that portion of
the nag. along the staff. The navy and

club sail under the white ensign, which

chant ships which are differed by mem

UntlI 1864 the British naval fleet was di-
vided into three squadrons, each in com
mand of an admiral, who was known by
the color. of his flag as the Admiral Of
the blue" the Admiral of the red and
the Admiral of the white" The dis
tinction was abolished because it was
found puzzling in action and was often
eliminated. Trafalgar, for instance, was
Fought under the white ensign. The
French and Spanish ships went into ac-
ton without setting their colors but were
later obliged to hoist them so as to be
able to strike them
