Latest Intelligence by the Steamer City OF

SAN FRANCISCO, May 13.-The
steamer City of Pekin arrived yester'
day morning from the orient bringing
Yokohama dates to April &c. The
United Press correspondent says:
Japan is criticised because she did
not square beforehand. She must
have known, it is alleged that her ex-
pansion would clash with Russian in
t~erests; that if the great bears paw
was not to be extended, he must have
a morsel to keep him quiet. Certainly
Japan did know that. She knew
that Germany's friendship was of
too selfish Il character to stand
any strain. Germany has never
lone anything for Japan without be-
ing paid. The history of her relations
with the new oriental power has been
4 series of hard bargains. 1t was al

the orient has been invariably dicta-
torial rather than conciliatory. The
position she now takes is perfectly
consistent with her precedent. Yet
Japan did not attempt to placate these
powers by previous arrangements.

THE area of territories coded by
China to Japan, namely: Lao Tung
peninsula, Formosa and PeScadores, is
50, 956 square miles, of which 10, 100
square miles represent Lao Tung
peninsula. Speaking approximately,
Japan increases her dominion by %
per cent, and her whole area becomes
greater than that of the United
lAAHSNOIhs bICdI DIIIdIH, SCOllduu
and Ireland, and nearly equal
to the combined area of
France and Spain. With regard to
population, no accurate statistics are
vet available, but it may be assumed
that Formosa has a population of s.
600, 900, PescadOres a population of g.
600 and Lao Tung peninsula a popula-
ton of $500, 600. Thus the total popu-
lation of the japanese empire becomes
As, 0OO, 900, which is greater than the
population of France and Germany.
The customs receipts Of Forinosa
are over 1000, 900 yen, and those at
Vingkow, New Chwang, about 1,OOO,-

The Japan Mail says:
at is stated that half the indem-
nifty to be paid by China will be bor-
rowed from wealthy Americans
through efforts of Mr.. Foster, and the
remaining half from two countries in
Europe.
There was a rumOr lately rife at
Hal Cheng that Gen. Chang Tsi-Tung
has presented an address to the throne,
praying for the construction of a rail-
way between Pekin and Hankow and
removal of the capital from Pekin to
Nankin."

Russia's Claim Againat China

LONDON, May 13.-The People to-day
prints the following dispatch from
Shanghai:
1T is stated that Russia, as an
equivalent for the advantages that
China derived from the former coun.
try's mediation in the peace negotia'
tions with Japan, claims the conces-
sion of Port Lazaref, on Yunghing
bay, Sorea, and a radius of 200 miles
inland. China, it is reported, is will
ing to grant this demand, and Japan
will also agree to it, provided a radius
of ten intead of 200 miles be made the
limit of the concession.

As Reported to the Department of AGri-
Cultural General Improvement.
WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE May re-
turns of the department of agriculture
show an increase in wheat of Ii points
from the April average, being $50,
against S1.4 last month, and STA in
May, 1894. The averages of the prin-
cipal winter wheat states are: Ohio
So, Michigan IS, Indiana 81, Illinois 90,
Missouri 90, Kansas As, California s..
The average of these seven states is
1913, against SIS in April, being an
increase of a little less than one point.
In the southern states the averages
range from 30, in Texas, to %, in Ala
bama.
Winter rye, like wheat, has adj
vanced nearly . points since last
month. its average for May being SS.7.
against 81 for the same date in April.
The percentages are: New York 81,
Pennsylvania q, Michigan IS, Illinois
81, Kansas "a. The prospects for rye
throughout the rye belt are fair eX-
cept in the state of New York, where
it is too dry, while in Minnesota and
Kansas the crop was considerably
damaged by the severe winter and has
not recovered.
The average condition of winter bar
ley is 81, against f2.3 in the month of
May, 1894, and $50 in 1893. The low
est conditions are in Texas, Indiana
and Iowa, and the highest in New York,
California and Oregon.
The condition of spring pasture is
sO.7, and of moving lands s9.4.
The proportion of spring blowing
done May l is reported at SIS per cent,
against S3.5 last year, and 73.4 in 1898.

AN AWFUL

Natural Gas Wrecks q Big Chicago LodR-
ing HOuse-Many Persons Taken from
the Ruins, Most of Whom are Expected
to Die-The Search Continued by the
Firemen and Police During a Terrific
Storm.
CHICAGO, May IA terrific explo-
sion in the big building at No. 10 Sher-
man street reused the people in that
vicinity, and shook the big board of
trade building at lis this Saturday
morning.
When the firemen arrived in less
than five minutes they found the
whole front of the building blown out
and flames bursting from the side and
alley windows. The building was &C.
cupied as a lodging house, which was
run by August Mitchell.
Just as the police arrived they saw a
man leap from the third-story window
and land in the paved alley. He was
picked up and found to be August
Mitchell. He was disposed of in an
ambulance, and the firemen, aided by
the police, rescued his wife and child
from the real of the third floor, but
the daughter Mary jumped, and it is
feared that she is fatally injured.
LATER-1:3O a. m.-The fremen in
cropping around the building found
the dead body Of 4 man IN the second
floor necr the real of the building and
in five minutes found two others, who
it is believed cannot cover They
were taken to the hospital. Search is
proceeding with all possible haste.
Wild rumors of fifteen killed are afloat,
but they cannot be verified.
1t is known that natural gas was
used on the second floor of the build
ing, and as the explosion has every APP
pearance of an explosion from that
source, it is believed to be a natural
gas explosion.
Nine persons, all badly burned, have
already been taken out uptothis time,
all of whom are expected to die.
The bartender, John -, who al
ways slept in the barroom, cannot be
found, and it is supposed hat he was
blown to pieces. The name of the
dead mai taken out at 1:30 is not yet
known. All the injured were taken to
the county hospital and it is impossible
to learn the extent of the injuries at
present.
The police and firemen now have the
fire under control. The search for
bodies is being prosecuted rapidly.
Mr.. Mitchell says he does not know
how many people were in the house
and the register has been burned up.
A terrific storm, accompanied by
thunder and lightning, greatly re-
tarded the work of the ~searchers.
Capt. Hartnett of the Harrison
street station, headed the corps of res
cuers. He had men from all the po-
lice stations down town, and the work
was prosecuted with great vigor.
At 2 a. IN. Capt. Hartnett gives it as
his opinion that all the bodies have
been recovered.
The board Of trade building, which
stands directly across the street, is not
thought to have been injured by the
explosion, although glass was broken
in all the buildings adjacent. The
financial loss will hardly exceed s., 900.

ON DANGEROUS GROUND.

Russia Still Monkeying With the Japanese
Buzz Saw.
BERLIN, May 13.-The st. Petersburg
correspondent of the Frankfurter lei
tung telegraphs hat reinforcements
Of Russian troops will shortly start
for the far east in consequence of the
persistence of Japan in the temporary
occupation of Port Arthur, her re-
lection of other concessions and her
positive refusal to limit her naval and
military forces. The Russian govern
ment entertains a suspicion that En-
gland has entered into an arrangement
with Japan by which she will obtain
islands.

Tired Feeling

1t Is remarkable how many people
there are who have That Tired Feeling
and seem to think it is of no impor-
lance or that nothing need be done for
it. They would not be so careless if
they realized how really serious the
malady is. But they think or say 1T
will go off after a while"
We do not mean the legitimate
WEAKNESS which all experience after a
hard days work, but that all-gone,
worn-out feeling which is especially
overpowering in the morning. when
the body should be refreshed and
ready for work. 1t is often only the

Admiral Meade Lays Himself Liable to


WASHINGTON, May II. Admiral
Meade's interview severely criticising
the administration, as widely pub
lished yesterday morning, created con-
siderable excitement and comment at
the navy department. All the higher
officials Of the department frankly
said that the im%petuous admiral has
rendered himself liable to court-martial
under article 235 of the regulations.
which expressly prohibits an officer to
communicate by interview or other
wise any comments or criticism of any
department of the government. 1t is
under this same article that Medical
Inspector Kershner is to be tried at
New York next week upon charges
preferred by Admiral Meade.
