of affairs in the far East. Corea's au-

Japanese Gibraltar. Now that Wei Hal

DESTROYED nothing remains except to ad-

be done by way of Shan Hal Kwan. IL
is curious nothing has yet been SAID
about the Chinese works and forces
there. where the next great engagement
must be.
"All talk of peace now is nonsense;
The Japanese will not talk about 1t until

RIoTs IN NEW ORLEANS.
Dynamite Found Concealed in a Bale

Dynamite Found Concealed in a Bale
of Cotton.
New ORLEANs, February 10. ~ The
United States marshals, who are pro-
tecting the negro laborers engaged in
loading the steamer Floridian, OF the
West Indian and Pacific Steamship line,
at Southport, the southern terminus OF
the Mississippi Valley railroad, just
above the limits of New Orleans, saw a
suspicious man yesterday morning
among the cotton bales on the wharf.
He was watched and detected conceal
ing something in bale OF cotton. He
was arrested at once and the cotton ex-
amined. 1t was found that he had put
enough dynamite in the cotton to blow
the Floridan to pieces. The federal au-
thorities refuse to give the name of the
man, but there seems to be no reason to
doubt that the attempted crime was due
to the bitter feeling growing out OF the
labor troubles here.
The West Indian 4 Pacific Steamship
Company was one OF the first lines to
employ negro labor in loading as against
WHITES. 1no WulJc ihUOICib WcIO iuulS-
nant and struck. The wharves of the
company were set on fire few days
afterward and burned with all the
freight, the total loss being $500, 200.
At Southport, where the man was ar
rested yesterday, there has been no
trouble for weeks, but the negro steve
dore in charge of the loading OF vessels
was shot several weeks ago by white
men. The race labor troubles on the
river front have prevailed since October.
The Cuban Steamship Company, which
has two vessels loading here with cotton
won signal victory yesterday in the
United States court. The company find
ing the loading OF its vessels prevented
or interrupted by the strike OF the screw
men and other labor men on the river
front, attempted to use its crew for
loading. The laborers have protested
against this, and under an act of the
legislature of 1880, which prohibits YES
sells using their crews to load or dis
charge cargoes, the mayor and chief OF
police were appealed to and stopped all
work. The company appealed to the
federal courts yesterday for an injunc-
ton. Judge Parlange's decision was
strongly in its favor. He declares the
law passed by the legislature, which has
been enforced for fifteen years without
ever being challenged before, unconsti.
tutional, prohibited the mayor and po-
lice from interfering with the crew
working, and announced that the com
pany had a good suit for damage:
against the authorities for the Interrupt
ton to which it had already been sub
jected.

Broke Into a Car.

KEARNEy, Neb., February 15.-Con-
siderable excitement was caused here
this afternoon by about City farmers,
with half as many teams, coming in
from Kearney county for relief supplies.
They broke into car on the Union Pa
cific track and commenced to help
themselves. The county commissioners
tried to stop them, but could not, and
after they started to drive away they
were brought back by the police. 1t is
reported that sixty teams are on their
way from Custer county for relief sup
plies.

5N, February 1.-The board
|sr commissioners to-day submit
al its twenty-ninth annual report TO
the secretary of the interior. The re-
port states that the awarding OF con-
tracts for Indian supplies has been lair
and impartial, and the goods delivered
fully up to the samples. There have
been but few complaints from the agen-
cies and schools in this regard. The
sweeping charges of fraud in the INDIAN
service, which are sometimes puoilshed'
are founded, it says. upon traditions
that have come down from former times.
The report reviews the situation IN inc
Indian Territory; refers to the grapi,io
picture drawn by Senator Dawes OF the
state of affairs among the five clvliizeo
tribes, and urges an earnest enort W

The report strongly recommends the
education of the Indian children at pup
lie schools as step forward toward tn'
transference of the whole work OF In
dian education to the states and making
unnecessary specific Indian schools.
In conclusion the report says tina
some of the Indian agencies can soon b.
dispensed with, but it will still be year

that the company should bear this ex-

Wxs,4IseroN. Febfd 1.-THE house
committee on Pacific railroads decided
to-day to report the Reilly Pacific rail-
road bill back to the house for further
consideration. The committee decided
that the house should have another OPP
portunity to vote for the bill in view OF
the fact that the resolution recommitting
the bill to the committee stated that
sufficient time had not been allowed for
its consideration. In reporting the bill
the committee will also submit without
recommendation the proposition made
by the railroads to pay the principal OF
the debt without interest. This action
is to enable the house to vote upon the
proposition if it 80 desires.
A motion to report foreclosure bill
received only one vote in committee.
The proposition for payment OF the prin-
cipal of the debt as submitted by the re.
organization committee, and which will
be offered as an additional section OF the
bill, is as follows:
"Section 10. If the said Union Pa
cific Railway Company, or the commit.

WASHINGTON, February 10. Fish
Commissioner Macdonald looks with re-
greet upon the possible refusal of the
Oregon and Washington legislatures to
do anything looking to the protection of
salmon fisheries, which would give the
general government an opportunity to
do something toward enlarging the pro-
duct Of the wonderful Columbia river
fish. Congress is ready to do something
as soon as the fish commission will rec
ommend, and Mr.. Macdonald is anxious
to make his recommendation as soon as
he can, If there is prospect of making
feasible expenditure OF money. The
fish commissioners cannot think that
either legislature will be so short-sighted

AS to getting an appropriation for the
propagation OF salmon, there is noques-

the regulations insisted upon by the fish
commission. Many. of the senators and
representatives have had an opportun.

Mitchell and Representative Hermann
