Wool Schedule Now in E9ac.

New York, Jan. 2.-The wool eche-
dule of the Wilson tariff bill went into
effect today. Customs officers worked
all New Years day and the better part
of the night to get things systematized.
The receipts today are thought to have
been the greatest in the history of the
custom house. At all events the income
was far larger than on any other day in
the recollection of Assistant Cashier
Jenkins, who has been there since
1852. The total duty collected was 81,
527, ,655, of which no less than 81 ,O97 1854
WAS for woolens. The number of pack
ages of woolens Withdrawn was 81 ,O7I.

China May Be Obliged to Give up Bx
tensive Territories.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-It is the belief
OF officials in position to know the
status of affairs between China and
Japan, that Japan will declare the peace
negotiations off until China hastens
them. Thtre is increased irritation on
the part of japan as to delays in pre-
senting definite proposals. Already the
Japanese government is inclining to the
unanimous demand of the native press
to make far greater demands than were
contemplated when the peace negotia-
tons began. At that time the general
understanding was that the basis of
peace would be cash indemnity and in
dependence of Corea. Now, however,
there is an intimation that Japan may
no longer accept the two conditions as
provided, but may insist also on China's
ceding extensive territories.

Deadlock in Colorado.

DENVER, Jan. 2.-The tenth general
assembly convened in the new capitol
at noon today. The house was prompt
ly organized with A. L. Humphrey, re-
publican, as speaker. There was a
hitch in the organization of the senate,
as Leddy and Adams, democrats, would
not affiliate with either the republicans
or populists unless given half the offices
and they, hold the balance of power.
The senate adjourned until tomorrow in
deadlock.

homa, where the country is emphatically
new. Missionaries of the Congre-
gational Home Missionary Society, in
forwarding special correspondence relat-
ing to the situation. state that there is
special need of clothing. With the
thermometer below zero there were 81
men at religious service who wore no
overcoats and were known not to own
one. Some of the women were without
wraps of any kind. A mother and
daughter alternately wore the same
pair of shoes. Women have been found
barefooted at home, not possessing any
kind of shoes.

MAINE REJECTS REEDS RULES
Forest Reserve Protection.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-Considerable
interest has been manifested in the
west over the prospect of the passage of
the bill for the protection of the forest
reservations and it has become evident
since the bill passed the house that it
will encounter no inconsiderable op-
position in the senate. Whenit went to
the sen ate, it was referred to the COM
mittee on public lands, but the reference
was changed later and it then went to
the committee on forest reservations, of
which Senator Allen of Nebraska is the
chairman.
The necessity of proper care of the
forests for the preservation of timber
and the conservation of water supply in
in all arid mountain states and terri
tories is generally admitted even by
those who oppose the pending bill, but
they contend that the selections of
lands for such reservations as have
been made were made without adequate
understanding of the conditions pro-
vided. They assert that any of the res
ervations are far more extensive than
they need to be and that they operate
to prevent the settlement of large areas
of country which might otherwise be-
come productive. It is asserted by them
that timber only holds the snow in the
mountainous regions and that many of
the reservations, and especially in Colo
rado, California and Wyoming, extend
to regions where the snow does not lie
at all. There is also objection to the
Aprinciple of using the standing army as
guard for reservations. Probably the
objection to placing the privilege of cut
ting timber within the discretion of the
secretary of the interior, which was
made in the house, will also be revived
in the senate.

Savannah Oct. 12.-It was an exceeding
ly dull day in the cotton market, buying
orders being very scarce; besides, the quo
tations remained on a basis of S1zc for
middling and buyers were not eager to
purchase at that price. The factors, how
ever. held out for quotations, and conf
IDENTIFY expected to realize full quotations
or better. The futures markets were up
to points on the day, and the general
feeling was bullish among the holders of
cotton. There was a steady and satisfac-
tory business done in naval stores, both
spirits turpentine and rosin being in good
demand at firm and unchanged prices.
The wholesale trades were fairly active,
and the movement was unusually heavy
for Saturday. The following resume of
the different markets will show the tone
and the quotations at the close to-day:

The assessors returns now on file
in Auditor Thomson's Office, are not
particularly booming in some re-
spects. There appears decrease in
the county's population since the
1890 census, but the decrease occur
red in the years 1890 and 1891, fol-
lowing that census. State officials
have claimed thepresent census would
not be reliable, but Auditor Thorn
son thinks it practically correct in
this county. The population given
is 4,572. A lesser proportionate
rate of taxation gives us about
$175, 900 less valuation in the coun-
ty than last year. The returns show
a considerable increase in the number
OF cattle in the county, and about
10000 more acres of land assessable.
