POWERS ALERT.
No Segregation of Chinese Terri
tory Will BE Allowed.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE C. Die
dispatch from London. showing a pur-
pose on the part OF Great Britain, France
and Russia TO interfere at the proper
stage of hostilities between Japan and
China, has attracted mach attention in
diplomatic circles here, and has ac-
CURED additional significance when
taken in conjunction with the recent
speech from the throne of Queen VIC
torla. The latter, in a very guarded
and diplomatic manner, limited that
when the time came the relations be-
tween the great powers would be found
sufficiently harmonious to insure the
restoration of peace between Japan and
China. By the terms of the UNDER
standing as reported, Japan Will not be
permitted to acquire an inch of terri
tory on the Chinese mainland. This, of
course. would prevent her from retain
ing Port2IAfthur q0lN @ei=IIai= Wei, the
great Chinese naval strongholds. or any
part Of Malichdra, which She has oc
cupied after shard fighting, but, on the
other hand, it is believed here that the
statement carries distinct intima-
ton that Japan may claim the great
island of FormOSa, which is the
most important strategic possession.
This Is inhabited by fierce Malay
tribes who have never been subjugated,
and even after their long nominal pos
session the Chinese have been unable to
do more than get foothold OIL the
coast. 1t has been confidently expected
here that the European powers will in
tervene between japan and China
whenever it should appear that the lat
ter country was really vanQuished and
was suing in vain for peace upon rea-
sonable terms. but so far as the dispatch
referred to indicates any possibility of
an action in that line by the United
States in conjunction with other powers,
it is clearly erroneous, for it can be
positively stated that under no condi~
tons can the president be induced 10
depart So far from our established policy
of nonintervention. 1t Is no cause of
surprise here that Germany, too, will
refrain from joining in an intervention
which would be surely disastrous to
Japan, for the latest reports from our
cOnsulS in the latter country show that
the German traders are making extra
ordinary progress in supplantlng all
other foreigners, even Americans. in
securing control of the valuable Jap~
aneSe foreign trade.

Attorney Generals Opinion as to
Terms of State Officers.
The attorney general has given his
opinion relative to the terms of state
officers, appointive or elective, which
he says expire alike on Jan. l. This
settles the time for the appointment of
the state boiler inspector, as well as
the surveyor general of logs. and lun-
Der. There has been some doubt on
this point, as the law under which
Boiler Inspector Clark was appointed
did not go into effect until April "a,
and he was not appointed until May 20,
the appointment being for two years.
His last appointment was dated Feb.
IL, and the question the senate judi
ciary committee has been debating was
when his term expired, Feb. II or May
90 The attorney general holds that
the constitutional provision that the
terms of all state officers shall end On
Jan. 1 applies without regard to date
of appointment.

Special to the Globe.
PIERRE. S. D.. Feb. Z. - The house
having yesterday reversed itself on the
free silver resolution by restricting its
demand to the American product, the
senate today wreStled with the subject.
The senators seemed to be in a good
deal of a quandary over it. The Pop
ulists strove to strike out the limitations,
but Senator McGee stated that limiting
to the American product would be prac-
ticaliy unlimited as North and South
America might be taken in. Senator
Boyce moved to limit 10 the product OF
the United States. Senator Sinclair
moved to limit to the product of South
Dakota. Senator Smith introduced a
substitute, calling on congress to raise
whisky to its historic price of five cents
gallon and wheat to dollar, to insure
that rains would fall when they were
needed. and everybody be generally
prosperous. By this time the whole
matter had been covered with rldlcule,
and it was hardly necessary when Sem
ator Bennett pleaded to postpone the
matter on the ground that South Da-
kotas credit had been hurt badly
enough by the Taylor defalcation with
out adopting this memorial. The mat
ter was finally laid over till Feb. q.
A sharp debate took place over the
proposition to exempt $500 worth OF
personal property from taxation, and it
was defeated by practically party
vote. The constitutional amendment
striking out the word male passed by u
votes to 6. The bill appointing one
woman a member of the board OF charl-

hibition question was thrashed over at
length, was defeated by vote Of 62
