Peace REPORTS CONFIRMED
Japan Willing to Relinquish Claims
Upon Portion OF the Yen.
SURPRISE AT THE CONDITIONS
1t Is Thought That an Offensive and
Defensive Alliance Would Weaken
japan Owing to China's Lack
of Military Strength.

Washington, Ajril 16.-The reported
signing of the treaty of peace between
China and Japan is confirmed by a
cablegram received this morning from
Hon. j. w. Foster, the adviser of the
Chinese plenipotentiaries.
The terms of peace agreed upon be-
tween China and Japan as cabled from
London are thought to be in some par
ticulars inaccurate, notably in regard
to Japan'S retention of already con-
quered portions of Manchurlan terri
tory and the Notifications of Port Ar
thus and Wei Hal Wei, If by retention
Is meant permanent occupation.
1t Is now officially stated that the
compromise which Japan agreed to
make from her original proposition was
material reduction in the amount of
the indemnity and her willingness to
withdraw from certain of the Chinese
territory which she had expressed de-
sire to occupy. The statement that
Japan has agreed to accept an indem-
nifty of only $1O0000,000 is regarded as
erroneous. Her demand at the begin
ming of peace conference was 100000
900 yen, equal to $500, 900, 900 american
gold dollars). According to advices
previously received Japan reduced this
amount by 100000 yen, thus leaving
the indemnity at 3OO,OOO,OOO yen, or
$3.50 900, 900 in gold.
Conditions of Peace.
Astonishment Is expressed that one
Of the reported conditions of peace
should have been an offensive and de-
fensive alliance between the two ma
tions. Such agreements are always re-
garded as close secret and are never
under any circumstances made public.
If this be the conclusion reached by the
two countries it Is regarded as the
more extraordinary that it should have
been so publicly announced. 1t Is point
ed out, moreover, that Japan has moth
ing to gain by an alliance of this char
acter. Both nations are at peace with
the rest of the world and aside from
this China's internal weakness and
lack of military strength, as shown in
the war just closed, would render an
alliance with such a nation a source of
weakness to Japan.
Washington, April 16.--Late this af-
ternoon Secretary Gresham received a
cablegram from Minister Dun, at To-
kio, Japan, confirming the press dis
patches that peace treaty had been
sage was terse and simply stated that
peace negotiations between Japan
and China were concluded today"

SIBLEY'S SILVER SPEECH.
Tho Champions Of White Metal Arc En-.
Enthusiastically Received by Colorado

Denver, Col. April l6.--The open air
mass meeting held from the steps of
the capitol this afternoon, In honor of
the silver agitators, General Warner,
Of New York, and ex-Congressman
Sibley, of Pennsylvania, was one of the
largest ever seen. Before the hour
which had been set for the opening,
people began to gather, and at 2 o'clock
there We're many thousand listeners.
Excursion trains brought In hundreds
from the mining camps. Judge A. w.
Rucker introduced Congressman Sib-
ley, who was greeted with cheers.
ANY place but Colorado to talk sill
ver," he said. ~ did not come to talk
silver. I can do that in the east, where
1t is needed, but | can ask you to ad
vance and eXalt the spirit of patriotism
even at the sacrifice of partisanship.
The president has said the ignorant
people of Colorado have got to be edu-
Gated on the money question, and l
wish he We're here to see whom he pro-
posed to educate. Silver sentiment Is
steadily growing, and even in Boston
and Michigan it is crystalizing. 1t is
Sterling Morton and other members of
the cabinet. The people of the east will
think the white ballots for silver in
1896 will amount to a snowstorm, and
will lie down and die like the blind
mule in the storm of pop corn. If sill
Yer had got its rights when Cleveland
took the presidents chair, Denver
would now be the center of population
Of the United States. But / did not
come here to attempt to educate you on
the subject of blmetallism, but to meet
the people of Colorado and talk with
them like brothers and fill myself up
with the life and vigor and electrical
fierce which one gets from breathing
the pure ozone of Colorado and shak-
ing hands with her people"
Mr.. Sibley was frequently interrupt
ed with applause and expressed himself
as more than gratified with the earnest
ness of the people In the cause of silver.
General Warner followed Mr.. Sibley
in a practical, business-like discussion
of the subject, which has been his life
study. AS to the future movements of
the party in this state, the committee
having he matter in charge have ar
ranged for a special train over the
Denver. and Rio Grande, in which the
party will start tomorrow morning.
1t is the intention to stop for an hour
or two at number of the smaller
towns along the route and receptions
will be given at the larger places. The
cities visited will include Colorado
Springs, Pueblo, Glenwood Springs and

Prospectors are running all over the
country and they offer cash bonus on
land, which, by the way, is hard to
get, as farmers are holding off for more
money. 1t is estimated that 400 small
wells have heen located for spring
operations, and the number is increas-
ing. Thus far no very big deals have
been made, although 1t is hard to tell
what developments a day may bring.
The runs during the past twenty-four
hours have been about 1850, an increase
of a hundred barrels over the preceding
day.
Operators are complaining Of scarcity
of labor and work Is hampered very
much on this account. Thousands of

POISON IN HIS PULPIT.
Aged Pastor Jessup Swallows Strychine

Birmingham. Ala, April 16.-Having
tagen poison in his pulpit, Rev. j. NJ
Jessup fell to the floor and died in
spasms before his startled congreka-
tion, at Sandy Ridge, before he had
finished his sermon, yesterday.
Pastor Jessup was a venerable Primi-
tive Baptist clergyman. An investiga-
ton as to his shocking death disclosed
the fact that he had taken a lot of
strychnine which he carried in his pock-
ct on bread-crumbs to poison English
sparrows that infested his yard. He
was also in the habit of carrying sugar
in his pockets Sundays, to clear his
throat for his sermon. He took the
strychnine by mistake with his sugar.
