A LIE WELL NAILED.

The attempt of Mr.. Lowndes' Democratic
opponents to iniure him among laboring
men, by charging him with being instru-
mental in having the State militia sent to
the Mines in Western Maryland during the
strike of the miners in June 1894 is a lam
entable failure.
A committee of the Federation of Labor
in Baltimore was appointed to thoroughly
investigate the charge, and the committee
on Wednesday night reported that Mr..
Lownd,s should he entirely eNonerated
from any participation in the matter.

Is it not plain, that every vote cast for Mr.
Hurst is a vote thrown directly for Mr.

maintaining himself in power, and to per-

known as Gormanism?
Certainly it cannot be otherwise.

KA0 Indsmnity 10 ~De PAid IN Seven An.
nual Observation-Disclosures who Were
Captured By the Japanese Not 20 BE
PuDlshed.
WASHINGTON, April eo-The stipula-
tion in the treaty of peace between
China and Japan, that the Chinese who
have been captured by the Japanese
and others who sold supplies to the
Japanese troops in their march through
Manchuria and Shan-Tung, shall not
be punished by the Chinese authori-
ties, was inspired by humane consider
ationA
It is the custom of China to behead
such Of her soldiers as fall into the
hands of the enemy and are afterward
returned to their country. During sew
eral naval and land engagements, up
ward of 5000 Chinese troops were cap.
tured by the Japanese, and it is to pre-
serve their lives that the foregoing
provision was inserted in the treaty.
The same considerations influenced
the other provision relative to the pur.
chase of supplies from Chinese sub
jects.
The curious fact develops In this con-
nection that China has not single
prisoner Of war belonging to Japan.
While no definite information hos
been received regarding the matter, 1t
Is understood that the indemnity will
take the form ef q bond issue on the
part of China. the bonds to be retired
during period of seven years, and to
bear interest at five per cent per an
mum. Tie presumption is still very
strong that the indemnity will be paid
in silver.
Until the beginning of the war be-
tween China and Japan each country
had q consular over its subjects in the
other country. It would now appear
that Japan will no longer grant this
privilege to China, although stipulat-
ing for a continuance of this right for
herself The explanation given for
this exception is that Japan Is
now civilized country, with q
code Of laws based ON the highest prin-
oiples Of Justice and equity, and that
she can he safely trusted, therefore, to
deal fairly with the Chinese subjects
living within her borders. China, ON

siding there must receive the protec-
ton Of their own country, since little,
