WASHINGTON, March 80. - The fol-

Japanese foreign office:
ION the opening Of the negotiations the
Chinese pieniPotentlary proposed an armis-
tice, which the Japanese government
was willing to accept on certain con-
ditions While this negotiation was go
ing on, the untoYard event happened
on the person of the Chinese plenipotentiary
His majesty, having in view this unhappy oc-
*currence, commanded the Japanese plenipo-
tentiar1es to consent to q temporary armistice,
without conditions. This was communicated
to the Chinese plenipotentiary.''
WASHINGTON, April ?. Secretary
Gresham has received official confirma-
ton of the declaration of an unco1,-
ditional armistice by the emperor OF
Japan. It is not understood here that
this is in any sense equivalent to dec
laration of peace, but it is believed that
there is not likely to be resumption
Of hostilities.
The armistice estab lished by the or
der of the mikado extends to April 20,
but it will terminate if the peace pour
parlers are broken in the Meantime.
According to the terms Of the armistice
the movement of troops and the trans
portation Of contraband of war by sea
is forbidden. The new distribution of
troops not intended to augment the
armies in the field is allowed.
Japan originally proposed as condi-
tons of an armistice the occupation Of
Shan Kwan, Taku and Ten Tsin and
japanese control of the Shan Kwan
and Tien Tsin railroad, China to
defray the cost of such occupation.
Ii Hung Chang has vainly sought
to modify these conditions, and it
was proposed to continue the negotia-
tons without an armistice being es-
tablished, when the attempt on the
life of the Chinese plenipotentiary oc-
CURED. This led to the declaration by
the mikado of an unconditional ar

The Railway Age gives statistics as
to the holding up Of trains by railway
brigands. From its figures it appears
that in 1890 there were twelve hold
ups in 1891, sixteen; in 1892, sixteen;
in 1898, thirty three; in 1894, thirty
four, the total number of trains thus
held up being Ill; the total number of
lives lost being twenty-seven, and the
total number OF people injured thirty.
1t thus appears that the crime Of train
robbery lis on the increase. Various
remedies have been suggested, but as
nearly all train robberies are commit
ted on interstate lines congress should
have them tried in locality of the crime.
