worst since the memories of the March
storm of 1854, which continued for three
days. Heavy thunder and vivid light
ming accompanied this storm, feature
not usual at this season. The velocity
of the wind just before daybreak was
terrific, and but for the heavy, wet snow,
which served to hold things in their
places, much damage would no doubt
have been done. At 20 the wind was
blowing at the rate of 4S miles an hour,
but it slowly decreased up to noon, when
it registered "a miles. A gable of the
Columbine schoolhouse was blown OUT
Stones weighing 35 pounds were blown
over 80 feet, while heavy blocks lay
piled up over 80 feet from the building.
The tramway and cable companies had
great difficulty in moving their cars, and
many of the street railway lines are
blocked.
At 6 p. m. the snow was about foot
deep in this city, and was badly drifted.
During the early part of the day trains
on the railroads east and west were con-
siderably delayed. The storm was ex-
ceptionally severe in Western Colorado
Observer Bradenburg says the storm

weather will follow. 1t is now rapidly

From yukon Gold Fields.

PoRT TOWNSEND, Wash., March 3d.
The first news of this season from the
Yukon river gold fields was received to-
day upon the arrival of T. G. Healy,
trader, who came out overland to Dyea,
and hence by steamer Alki to hurry
shipment of supplies to the mining
camps, all provisions being exhausted
except coffee. The last sack of -four sold
for $16. Over 1000 miners are living on
less than half rations and undergoing
severe hardships, but it is believed they
can subsist on the present supplies until
the steamer reaches there in July. al
though many will be incapacitated from
labor next summer on account of the
winters famine.
The reason supplies ran short was ow-
ing to nonarrival of the steamer Arctic
which was abandoned by Captain Peter
son at Fort Yukon last autumn, and was
unable to reach the mining settlements.

Exceptions of Great Import

WHERE SHE IS NOT IN POSSESSION
1t Does Not Apply to the Lower Coast
OF China, Formosa and the
Fisher Islands.

SIMoNosAKI, March 3d. The three
weeks armistice agreed to between
Japan and China applies only to the To-
calities of Moukden, the Gulf of Pe-Chi-
Ii and the shan-Tung peninsula.
A conference was held between the
Japanese plenipotentiaries and Ii Hung
Changes son-in-law, Lord Ii, preceding
the declaration of the unconditional
armistice declared by the emperor of
Japan.
WASHINGTON, March 3d. Secretary
Gresham has received official confrma-
ton of the declaration of an uncondi-
tional armistIce by the emperor of
Japan. 1t 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
continue for long time before peace
treaty, is signed, and it is quite certain
that Japan will abate none of her de-
mands on account of the armistice. In
fact, the granting of the latter is looked
upon as shrewd move by the Japanese
emperor to diminish the harmful effect
of the attack upon Ii Hung Chang. If
the war were prosecuted now, it would
have the effect of forcing the peace ne
gotiations to speedy conclusion, and it
is realized by the Japanese that in the
resent state of feeling caused by the at
tack they could scarcely insist upon as
favorable terms of peace as can be real
I,a a. 60
the first impression will have worn off.
It is noted here with interest that the
terms of the armistice do not apply to
the lower coast of China, aud particu-
larly to Formosa and the Fisher islands.
This is taken to mean that the Japanese
have determined to occupy Formosa be-
fore the peace negotiations are COM
pleted, and the explanation OF this pur-
pose is found in the fact thatit is almost
an invarlable rule of international law
that a nation must be in actual armed
possession of a piece of territory as a
basis for demand for its ces1ion.
Now that suspension of hostilities has
been directed there is renewal of inter-
est as to terms of peace to follow.
While there is no definite information
on the subject at the Chinese legation,
the opinion prevails that money IN
demnity will be paid. largely in silver,
as that is the metal in common use in
China. Those most familiar with China
say there is no gold coin in circulation
there, although that country has hereto
fore purchased large supplies of gold
bars, and from this accumulation had
made heavy gold exports.
The officials of the Japanese legation
believe that the next step will be the is
suance of a proclamation by Japan, and
unofficial word has already reached the
legation that this has been done. Con-
fidence is expressed that the emperor's
proclamation will be accepted at once by
the armies. There is telegraphic COM
munication with the various divisions
at Port Arthur. New-Chwang and Wei
Hai-Wei, although it takes twelve hours
to reach the last named place.

ASSESSORS SHOULD GO SLOW.

1t is to be hoped that the Commissioners
will ask Congress to give the assistant
assessors more time in which to complete
their work of determining the values of
" ashington property.
The statement has been made that the ex-
tension is only for the county work and
that certain of the city sections may suffer
from hasty action. This should not be per-
mitted by those in authority. -
1t is highly important that the present
assessment should be fairly, equitably, and
carefully arranged. The difficulty arising
from the one which had to be equalized is
still fresh In the public mind.
The basis of so per cent Of estimated

vide o revenue adequate to the needs of
the District. Taxation in any form is bound
to be more or less oppressive, hut &he bur
dens Of citizenship should be equally and
equitably distributed If the health OF
the commonwealth is desired.
Therefore, the motto of Davy Crockett,

should be appropriated by the Commission
ers and assessors, and the work in city and
county performed with caution and care.

ANOTHER VIOLATION OF LAW.

The eighthour law has little weight
among Government officials, and, as at
present executed, is without effect.
The latest proof of this is found in the
story published elsewhere in this paper that
in order TO install the new electric light
plant in the Capitol before Congress meets
the workmen must be employed more than
eight hours day.
This, as in all the other cases, is denomi-
mated such an emergency as is contem-
plated by the clause in the law exempting
transgressors from punishment.
1t is about time to have Congress put a
fence around this emergency clause, as
every Government contractor, aided and
abetted by the officials, either has broken
in or proposes to break into the law.
