CHINA's EMPEROR AWAKE.
He is Now Taking the Initiative in the
Work of Defense.


Work of Defense.
LONDON, October l2.-The Times has
this dispatch from its correspondent in
Tien Tsin: The Emperor is now taking
the initiative, and is iniusing new en-
ergy into the work OF national defense,
mastering military resources, the exist
ence of which was scarcely suspected.
The Viceroys OF Yonk Wei and Hulk
Wang have been summoned to Picking
for counsel. The japanese Admiral has
been making sham demonstrations with
dummy ships painted white like war
vessels, but there always have been the
same two cruisers appearing about the
promontory OF Nhang Tung. The Jap
anese are taking elaborate pains
to conceal their losses in the
recent engagement; nevertheless the
truth is gradually coming out. Their
fleet was crippled more seriously than
the Chinese were aware. The Japanese
papers received contain falsilied version
Of the Chinese Emperor's declaration Of
war. The phrase, roofing the pestllen-
tial Japanese from their lair" is not in
the original. Experience has shown that
the Japanese accounts of events preced-
ing and during the war have been sys-
tematically misleading.

The War in the East Has Not Done That
Port Much Good.

SAN FRANCIsCo, October 13.-Beyond
the sale of few shipments OF flour and
canned goods the merchants OF San
Francisco have not derived much bene-
fit from the war in the Orient, says a
morning paper. Local wholesalers claim
that they cannot compete with the Ca
madam Pacific and the cheap transporta-
ton and manufacturing concerns of Eu-
rope. They say that the war cannot do
the port of San Francisco any good. Re-
ports from Japan and China, however,
tend to disprove the belief, and show
that it is want OF energy and business
promptness on our own part that Is
standing in our way. Late advices re-
ceived via Victoria from Japan say the
local steamer and cargo-ship service OF
that country and China have been great
" demoralized by the war. Shipping is
at a standstill, and some ports are sadly
in need of certain lines of merchandise.
For the benefit of our Northern neigh
bors that have extensive coal mines the
following quotation is copied from let
ter received in this city few days ago:
"Japan's coal stock has nearly all been
bought up at high premium, and the
price OF coal has advanced nearly 100 per
cent, with ready sales. Australian coal
has not been shipped here in any guam
tity for long time, and most OF the Eng
lish Goals are too high-priced to handle"
Some of our Pacific Coast hulls might
find employment carrying coal to Asia.

NEW FREIGHT RATES.



PORTLAND. October 10. - Wholesale
merchants appear to be indifferent to the
raise in west bound freight rates an
nounced recently. So far as can be
learned, there is no complaint at the ad-
vance. The average dealer is more IN
terested in the stability OF rates than IN
the raise. If he is certain that he is
granted the same rate as his competitor,
he is satisfied. As for the amount of the
advance, that is added to the amount OF
his sales, and the dealer therefore oc-
cupies about the same position no matter
what freight charges are. These higher
rates, it is claimed, will be of some slight
benefit to the wholesaler in preventing
the retailer from ordering direct from
the manufacturer, as has been done to
considerable extent since rates were
placed at the low figure. II there were
many manufactures here, this advance
or greater one would be a blessing to
them. 1t was thought that an increase
in west bound freight charges would be
of assistance to water lines doing
freighting business around the Horn,
but the present advance is not enough
to make any material difference, at least
at the present time. Merchants here
are ordering sparingly from the East,
only enough for present needs, and are
not inclined to speculate, and are back
ward about bringing their goods via the
lengthy Cape Horn route. But Tor the
prevailing depression in business
change, even such as becomes effective
the goth OF the month, would greatly
stimulate the clipper trade.

Secure New Hands. ,rrA
PTrTsBURg, April 1T.--Arrangements for
the coal miners strike, which is to take
place next Saturday have been nearly
completed. AT a conference held between
National Organizer Cameron Miller and
District President Cairns a series of meet
ings was arranged to take place while the
strike Is In progress TO keep up enthusi-
Rsm and keep the men in line.
In few days circulars will be sent out
TO the operators notifying them that the
miners demand y restoration of the old
price for mining, which, IL seventy nine
cents in this district It is evident from
the short official notics which the opera
tors will receive thSt the miners do not
expect then TO consent 10 the Rdvsnce in
wages asked for, rs the operators would
scarcely have time to csme together and
formulate any reply before the strike Il
declared. II " thought, however, that
they will agree upOn some concerted ss-
tion before tho strike is we'll under head
way in order to protect themselves. 1t is
pretty osrtaia that some OF them at least
are now preparing TO sontinus operations
with new men the mOmsnt their present
employees lay dOWR their picks. They
SiRiN that about onS-half of the 300,000
miners in the country are out Of work and
have boeH idle most of tho winter because
they could fnd no employment. They are
consequently very poor and anxious to 20
70 work at any price. 1t ia, therefore,
claimed thAs the operators will have no
trouble in getting men to take their places.
