The report that arrangements are

posted in Ching Kiang denouncing the
Manchu dynasty and demanding it's
overthrow.
The best warships of the Nan Yang

Japan and make terms. This rumor

Chicago, Dec. 17.-At a conference
this afternoon between President Debs
and other A. R. U. officials and their
attorneys it was decided to make three
separate efforts to provide escape for
the ex-strike leaders from the sentence
OF Judge Woods in the contempt cases
last Friday. The attorneys will endeav-
or to secure an appeal to the supreme
court and writ of error and will also an
ply for writ of habeas corpus. 1t was
believed by the American Railway
Union people here that defendants at
torneys would meet success in at least
three of the attempts to stay execution
OF the sentences and the opinion was
freely expressed that Debs and his asso-
ciates would not go to Jail.

JAPAN 10TH TO ACCEPT.
Wants Her Insolent Neighbor Thorough
ly Humbled.

ly Humbled.
Toxic, Nov. 20, (per steamer Gaelic.
via San Francisco, Dec. 14.)-It is with
the greatest reluctance that Japan list
ems to suggestions for mediation from any
quarter. The aim Of the Chinese gov
eminent has always been to delude
it's people into the belief that the. en-
peror rules all nations, and that when
one particular vassal state becomes
troublesome, he has only to order it's
subJugation by others, and thus restore
tranquility without unnecessary dis
turbance of his own composure. The
idea that the mighty middle kingdom
can humble itself so far as to sue for
peace is one that must never enter the
mind of the populace. If japan were
to treat indirectly through western pow
ers, it would be given out that China
had commanded the tributary states of
Europe to bring the rebellious Japanese
to terms, and had thus settled the bust
ness without impairing her own dignity.
This conviction once established
throughout the empire, the court of
Pekin would resume its habitual inso-
ience, and again block the wheels of
progress in the east. That is what ia
pan firmly believes, and she is, there
Gore, resolved that the whole Chinese
nation shall be made aware of it's gov
ernments abasement. On no other
terms can security for the future be
assured.
The inquiry of the United States as to
Japan's willingness to accept the prof
fer of assistance is regarded as rather
retarding than accelerating a satisfac-
tory conclusion of the war. Neverthe-
less, the authorities at Toxic are not al
together indispOsed to allow an avowal
of China's submission to be made
through American diplomatic agencies
They would prefer that it come without
circumlocution, direct from the Chinese
sovereign. Their silence on this. as on
most other subjects, is virtually impene-
trable. The Japanese newspapers re-
port that Mr.. Dun, minister of the
United States, is on his way to Hiroshi-
ma to inquire into the proposals for
peace. These statements are untrue
in every particular. The American min

CHINESE FOUGHT TO NO PURPOSE

Routed by Japanese and Forced Back
in Disorder.
Hiroshima, Dec. 16.-A dispatch from
the front states that reinforcements
were sent to a Japanese detachment
which on December was compelled by
a superior force to retire from Saibashu
On Dec. IA the strengthened Japanese
force made another attack on the Chi
nese who were advancing from Saibashu
The latter fought with vigor. but were
completely routed, fleeing in disorder.
The Japanese pursued the enemy as far
as Chokinshu and captured four guns
and several prisoners. The Japanese
loss was three officers wounded and 20
privates killed or wounded. The Chinese
are still confronting the japanese divis-
ion commanded by General Tatsumia and
fighting is expected shortly.
THE PORT ARTHUR STORY.
Washington, Dec, ia telegram has
been received at the Japanese lega-
ton in relation to atrocities alleged to
have been committed by the Japanese
at the capture of Port Arthur The
government at Toxic is not yet in pos
session of the fun details of the affair.
but information already at hand shows
conclusively that some of the reports
which have been circulated concerning
the affair are exaggerated and mislead-
ing. If there was unnecessary blood
shed, the Japanese government can not
but believe there must have been an
melting cause for the behavior of the
troops as hitherto it had been most
exemplary at times and under circum-
stances calculated to excite feelings of
the deepest resentment and animosity
1t is known to be a fact that great
majority of those Chinese who were
killed at Port Arthur were not peacea-
bic inhabitants, but Chinese soldiers
disguised in civilian dress. Most Of the
Inhabitants fled from the place several
days before the capture and at the
present time have returned and are
pursuing their occupations without mo-
lestatton or restraint. The Japanese
government and it's representatives
have no disposition to conceal any of
the facts but on the contrary have
caused the strictest investigation, the
results Of which will be promptly made
public.

present at the interview testified that
they had not the slightest idea that
anything out of the ordinary was
thought of by the young man.
THE PRESIDENTS STORY.
Major Edmondson, president of the
bank was seen and asked for his YER
sion of the affair. He said: Hunting
ton, Cromwell. Hayden and l were sit
ting in the private office. Cromwell was
in the northwest corner of the room. 1
in the northeast, Hayden about the cen
ter and Huntington between Hayden
and myself. We were seated about the
table that stands against the north
wall. Mr.. Hannah, the cashier had
been sitting between Hayden and Hunt
ington until few minutes before the
shooting took place, when he went out
into the front part of the bank Hay
den and Cromwell had been question
ing the young man very closely about
his mode of living. On one occasion he
had deposited $40 in the bank and Crom
we'll asked him where he got it. Hunt
ington said that he borrowed it, bun
when asked of whom he borrowed it he
could not remember and said that it was
none of their business anyway. Up to
that time had the most implicit conf
dence in Huntington's honesty, but l
must confess that his evasive answers
made me doubt it.
Il saw that something unpleasant
was about to occur and got up to leave
the room. Just as I got up Huntington
did likewise. He passed behind Hay
den, and / supposed he was going to get
drink at the water-tank There was
nothing in his actions that indicated
nervousness or excitement. 1 was about
half way between my chair and the door
when heard a pistol shot, and looking
around / saw Huntington standing be-
tween Cromwell and Hayden and a lit
tie behind with a gun still pointed at
the former. I hurried out of the private
office, and as 1 went out heard several
more shots fired. ] ran out and gave the
alarm, and when several of us went into
the private Office we found Huntington
lying on the floor with blood streaming
from wound in the back of the head
and the other two men suffering from
the effects of his deadly aim. We have
always considered John an honest man,
and if there was any weak point in his
character it was a little tendency to ex-

Chicago, Dec. 14,-"Guilty as charged"
was the finding announced today bv
Federal Judge Woods against President
Eugene V. Debs, of the American Rail-
way Union. The same finding was
reached against the A. r. U. leaders on
trial with Debs.

was very long, and cited many authori-
ties
DEBS GETS SIX MONTHS.
Debs was sentenced to six months in
the county JAIL The others were given
three months each, except MacVean, who
was released because there was no evil
dence against him. Judge Woods. after
announcing the defendants guilty as
charged, said it was not according with
the procedure in such cases to permit
defendants to say why sentence should
not be passed, but in this case the court
would allow it.
DON'T MIND IT.
The defendants did not appear partic-
ularly crushed by their punishment.
Debs bowed his tall, gaunt form, and
whispered few words to his sister,
who sat near, and they both laughed
heartily. Howard and Hogan exchanged
smiling glances, and Keliher grasped
his attorneys hand, and appeared to
offer congratulations. 1t was evident
that all expected much more severe
sentences. Debs drew his people to one
side, and instructed them to say moth
ing for publication, setting them the
example by refusing to discuss the case
at all. After the murmur of excitment
over the sentence subsidized, the court
announced that the punishment was
not to take effect for ten days, in which
defendants attorney will prepare an
appeal The prospective prisoners,
after short consultation with their at
torneys, left the court room
The defendants and their official DO
sitions in the A. r. u, are: President
Debs, Vice-President Howard, Secre-
tary Keliher, Treasurer Rodgers and
Directors Burns, Elliott, MacYean,
Hogan and Goodwin.
GOMPERS DENOUNCES IT.
Denver Dec. 14,-President Gompers
said regarding the decision of Judge
Woods in the Debs case: II think II
is contemplate for any Judge to take
from citizen of the United States the
right to trial by jury. If Debs is guilty

this has been done on quite an ex-

to do a large business in supplying
