JAPANESE WERE WARY.
Not Inclined 60 Have Much Earth In
Chinese Peace Envoys.

VICTORIA, b. c., Feb. 1.-The steam
ship Empress of China arrived yesterday
with Yokohama adviccs to Feb. 1. They
give the following account Of the prelim-
mary work of the peace commission:
Ex.Secretary Foster was treated with
especial courtesy during his stay at Toxic
and Kobe. During the first days Of his
stay at Kobe. Mr. Foster examined many
kilograms with the Chinese government
They were believed to DO in reference to
the power and authority of Chang and
Shao, the Chinese peace commissioners,
regarding which the japanese were all
along very doubtful, especially as they
were by no means convinced OF the integ-
rity of China's Intentions.
Mr.. Foster was given TO understand that
unless ample powers were guaranteed by
their credentials, the ENJOYS would not
even be admitted TO hearing The dip
lomatic contest will be stubborn. AT this
date China does not seem TO realize that
Japan will demand a cession OF territory,
and 10 Is anticipated that the humiliation
of losing any Of her continental domain Is
more than she will be willing 10 endure.
The Chinese embassy arrived at Hiro-
shima on the 8lst, and were received with
the formalities due TO their official posi-
tion. Apartments were provided for the
two heads of the commission in the gov.
ernmcnt houses, and Mr.. Foster was in
vited TO the residence of member Of the
Asano family. TO which the province In
which Hiroshima Is situated formerly be-
longed.

POINTERS FOR NICHOLAS.
Which May BE Worth Due Consideration

LONDON, Feb IA The Chronicle prints
the text of manifesto which Is being
widely circulated in Russia in the form OF
an open letter to the car. IL embodies
the ears recent speech declaring that he
would uphold autocracy as his father had
done before him.
Theinanifesto is evidently the work of q
man or men OF much knowledge, ability
and experience. 1t declares that the czar
has been misled as. to the aspirations OF
the Zemstvos, and says that his speech has
dispelled 1.-THE halo with which many Rus
slams surrounded your young and indis-
tinct figure"
In conclusion, the manifesto says: 1T
was yourself who killed your own popu-
larity. You have challenged the people,
who now have nothing left but to make a
deliberate choice between progress and
loyalty to autocracy You have alienatcd
all that part of society which was peace
fully struggling forward by your sharp re-
ply TO their most modest and lawful
wishes"

was built upon e mound: in case the
dixie should break. Professor Thomas
has also found historical evidences
that some Indians living in the south
when visited by white men built
mounds for fortifeatio1 in warfare.
These he scores as convincing points,
for if one tribe could do it, why
couldn't another?
But in addition 70 all this evidence
there are found to have been great
similarities between the mound build
ers and Indians, which convinces Pro.
fessor Thomas that they were one and
the same people. They both used stone
implements so similar that it is diff
cult to tell them apart. Both cu'tl'
waited maize and relied upon it Tor
food. Both were great smokers Of
tobacco and their pipes were similar
in form. There is also marked sim
ilarity between engraved shells, cop
per articles, stone images and many
other implements found among botn'
