MORE TALKING OF PEACE.
Japan Not Particularly Anxious to
Treat.
The Chinese ENJOYS Will Not Be Received
Unless They Come With
Full Powers.

YOKOHAMA, Jan. 25.-Official notice has
been received that Chinese peace ENJOYS
are coming on the steamship Empress of
China. They will proceed to Hiroshima
by train from Kobe.
An official dispatch says that General
Nodzu attacked Hal Chen on January II,
and adds: "There were 5000 Chinese
troops under General Chang on our right
and 5000 under General Twi on our left
wing. We found twentyone Chinese dead
after the battle, Including two officers.
The natives say the Chinese lost over 100
men.
SHANGHAI, Jan. 25.-It is stated here on
good authority that the Chinese peace en-
voys will not be received unless they have
full powers to propose final terms Of peace.
Several Japanese warships have gone
south to intercept steamers expected to
arrive shortly off the coast of China with
arms, ammunition and other articles
classified as contraband of war.
LONDON, Jan. pa dispatch to the
Times from Tientsin says the Chinese met
the advance guard of the japanese army
near Chang Bay on Thursday and repulsed
them. Some of the japanese were killed.
A Peking dispatch to the Times states
that -Weng-Strae, ex-Viceroy of Yung
Nan, has been appointed to assist Ii
Hung Chang in the superintendent of
trade, thus curtailing the latter's functions.

CHAMBERLAIN, s. OAK, Jan. 25.-That the
female members of the Sioux nation are
advancing toward civilization cannot be
longer denied. It is we'll known that it
is customary for the squaws to do all the
manual labor, such as gathering and chop
ping wood, caring for the ponies of their
indolent warrior husbands, keeping the
tepee or house in repair, ETC., in addition
to performing the usual household duties,
but White Cow, Sioux squaw, decided to
change the Sioux custom and is now I'M
Jail in the western part of the State on
the charge of committing a murderous
assault on her husband, Charging Elk.
With the evident intention of following
the advice of her white sisters, she re-
fused to longer submit to the usual
drudgery imposed upon her by her iege
lord, and on being expostulated with
somewhat forcibly, flew into rage and
commenced to carve him with knife,
stabbing him twice in the arm and once
in the ribs. She now wishes to commit
suicide, and it is necessary to watch her
closely to prevent her carrying her wish
into execution.

ing ice for their own use apply this same prin-
ciple ito the manufacture of your clothing,
your hats and your boots and shoes and many
other things used by the conyicts, as well as
other supplies needed by the prison. In this
manner you will have infringed upon legit-
innate business, which employs labor at high
wages, as little as possible in every department
of manufacture.
By this process Of using your power you ac-
complish very good thing, VIZ; Each prisoner

featuring interests are in the use of this power
the less injury to everybody engaged in manu-
featuring in the State and the more direct ben
eft to the prisoner after he leaves prison life.
The protest comes from the Union Ice
Company, but will contain many sigma
lures. The company claims to employ
over 1000 men, and that convict opposition
would necessarily mean the reduction in
the salaries of the men.

REP UB1Io4Y SENATORS CAUCUS.
A Discrimination to Interfere n. the Dead

Il Discrimination to Interfere n, the Dead
locked States.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-At the Republican
Senatorial caucus tonight the principal
subject under consideration was that of
taking position on the question of the
Senatorial elections in the States where
there are Senatorial deadlocks. No formal
expression of opinion was elected. This is
because of the general opposition which
seems to prevail against Senatorial inter
ference. There was also some expression
of opinion upon the order of business in
the Senate from this time forth, but no
vote was taken.
The Territorial admission bills were dis
cussed with reference to the political COM
plexion of the proposed States if this bill
should pass. There was no reference to
the silver question in the discussion, but
the Eastern Senators, as a class, seemed
inclined to oppose admission and the West
ern Senators to favor it, insofar as express
sion was obtained. The nearest approach
to decision by the caucus was in the mat
ter of the resolution of Senator Allen
regarding the alleged election frauds in
Alabama, of which the Republicans will
probably stand together to encourage in
vestigation.

CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-"Luck" Smith de-
feated Joe Eagan in a hayloft on the
South Side last night, after fierce battle,
in the second round. The men had been
paving around in the ring less than two
minutes in the second round when Smith
landed a left-hand swing on the point of
Eagan's jaw, flooring him SO effectually
that, though not knocked out, he was un-
able to get to his feet again.
Smith is pressrnan and Eagan mailer
on two of Chieago's daily newspapers.
Smith weighed 100 pounds and Lagan 145.
There was no sparring of any kind. Both
men made for the body and not blow
was landed on either of their faces. 1t
was terrific pace and when the first
round was over it was patent that it could
not last long.
In the second round Smith changed his
tactics and made for his opponents face.
Eagan made valiant show at resistance,
but it was evident that he could not win.
Smith kept landing rights and let's and he
was finally dropped under the weight of a
right-hand swing. Exhausted the man
lay there while the referee counted him
out.

TEHERAN Persia, Jan. 25.-Further de-
tails received from Kuchan show that the
earthquake there on January IL did more
damage and caused greater loss OF life than
at first reported.
Over 200 were killed and 200 buildings
were wrecked. The town is now said to be
completely in ruins.
LONDON, Jan. 25.--Further details OF the
destructive earthquakes at Kuchan state
that the loss of life was enormous. Most
of the victims were crushed to death by
falling buildings, but many were burned
to death, the ruins in which they we're en-
tangled having caught fire.
Six hundred were entombed in a mosque
while engaged in prayer. Six hundred
other persons persisted in the various
baths. The survivors could obtain neither
food nor water for some days, the tele-
graph lines having been destroyed. Many
who escaped before being killed by the
earthquake persisted from hunger and ex-
pOSJre.

DIsoRTMINATING DUTIES.
Hopkins Proposes to Leore the Matter IN
the PreSidenps Hands.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Representatlye
Hopkins of Illinois, a member OF the
WAYS and Means Committee, will offer an
amendment to Mr.. Wilson'S bill to remove
the discriminating duty on sugar from
certain foreign countries, which Will be
designed, it is stated, to insure the
efficiency of Mr.. Wilson's bill in accom-
plishing its objects, that is, the ending OF
retaliatory measures against American
meats. The amendment will be substan-
TALLY as follows:
Provided, That in the case Of foreign eoun
try, whether independent or dependent, that
makes or permits an injurious discrimination
in such country against products of the United
States, the duty mentioned in this bill shall re-
main in full force and effect as provided in the
law in force prior to the enactment OF this bill.
The amendment, if enacted, will leave
the power of enforcing the law in the dis
erection of the executive branch of the Gov
eminent. If Germany and her allies do
not conclude to discontinue their discrim-
nation against American meat and other
products after the sugar discrimination has
been RENTED the President has authority
to enforce it against the Government OF
tending.

1t is animated that the committees will
look sharply into the affairs of the asylum
for deaf mutes at Berkeley, as information

that, withal, the inmates are anything but

PROPERTY AND LIFE DESTROYED.
4 City Was Shaken and Six Dead Have
Already Been Taken From the
Ruins.

MENDOZA, Ills, Jan. 25.--At p NJ. the
main buildings of Henning's brewery were
wrecked by a boiler explosion. The con-
cussion was so great that every building in
the city was badly shaken. The building
destroyed was five stories in height and
filed with machinery. The force of the
explosion completely demolished it, killing
six men and badly injuring six others.
The killed are: s. S. Seifert, foreman;
David Wells, fireman; David Cheer, en-
gineer; Lemuel de Share, iceman; Henry
Pert, laborer; John Kennedy, a we'll
digger of De Kalb.
The injured are: James Love, Chicago,
arm broken and head badly cut; A. Nc
Leod, Chicago, head and face cut; George
Parker, Chicago, head cut; F. M. Carpenter,
badly hurt; William Long, badly hurt;
Henry Varney, badly hurt.
The Chicago men and Kennedy of De
Kalb had lately come, here, and were en-
gagged in sinking a well near the building.
A binding snowstorm started late tonight
preventing further search for bodies. 1t is
thought other victims will be found in the
debris when daylight comes. The loss of
property amounts to over 100000, and
work.
The explosion lifted the building and
then overturned it. All was excitement
and many were driven frantic with the
thought that husband, father or son
might be beneath the ruins. Women bare
headed and wild with fear braved the
wind and cutting snow that some tidings
of the injured might be learned. In the
excitement number of citizens received
injuries in removing beams and broken
timbers. Never before has the city suf-
fered such a blow. 1t is believed there
are several bodies at the bottom of the
great heap of brick, mortar and ma
chinery. The work of removing the ruins
is progressing slowly and it will be a day
or more before the list of dead will be COM
plete. When the explosion occurred every
building in the city was shaken and
men rushed out to see what was the cause
of the explosion. The dead men are
highly respected and several of them are
prominent citizens.

against-Davis, Pettigrew and Wolcott. As
predicted the Louisiana, Mississippi and
Texas Democrats, who might reasonably
have been expected to support the BILL
were arrayed against it.
1t is not finally settled whether the House
will consider the bill, though the chances
are that it will. Speaker Crisp is not
especially friendly to the measure. As
before stated in these dispatches, he is
friendly to Pacific railroads interests, and
the administration is not supporting the
bill, which is plainly shown by the votes of
GRAY and Villas, the administration spokes-
men. If the bill is considered by the
House the chances of its passage are doubt
full. If it does pass it will be modified ma
terially, but an agreement can be reached
in conference. The fate of the bill is prac-
tically in the hands of Speaker Crisp now,
for although he is i'll at Asheville the
Speaker pro TEN, will carry out his policy.
The passage of the bill marked the ter
mination of debate which has lasted
since the present session of Congress be-
gan. It was, moreover, the first realization
in either branch of Congress of the vast
project so long and vigorously urged for
a canal Joining the Atlantic and Pacific,
with the United States Government stand
ing sponsor for the execution of the work.
The final vote was not secured until $3.50
O'Clock tonight, but, Notwithstanding the
lateness of the hour, there was an excep-
tionally full Senate, owing to the interest
felt in the elimination of the long discus
sion. The Nicaraguan Minister and many
others interested in the project had seats
in the diplomatic galleries throughout the
voting on the many amendments and the
final question.
The bill in brief directs the issue of $70,-
10000 of Nicaragua canal bonds. Each of
these is to bear the following guarantee:
The United States OF America guarantees to
the lawful holder of this bond the payment by
the Maritime Canal Company of Nicaragua of
the principal of said bonds and the interest &C
cruing thereon and as it accrues.
An additional S3O,0OOo 600 of bonds is to
be issued without the United States guar
antee, and the total 800, 600 thus issued
is to be used in constructing the inter-
oceanic canal. The Secretary of the Treas
ury is to have general supervision of the
project. A board of fifteen directors is to
have immediate charge of the work. The
board is to designate ten members, no
more than two from any one State. The
United States is to receive SIC, 900, 900 of the
canal company stock in return for guaran-
teeing the bonds, and is to hold mort
gage lien on all the property of the canal
company.
Aside from the final debate and vote on
the Nicaragua bill, the main interest of the
day attached to very caustic speech by
Mills of Texas unfolding the ADMINISTRATION
policy in Hawaii, and incidentally scoring

joints which are the symptoms OF
rheumatism.
If SO, why do you not adopt the
common-sense method of cure and
take the best blood purifier, Hoods

be considered blood disease, I'M
doubtedly originating in defcienN
digestion and improper food, which,
cause an excess of uric or lithic acid in
the stomach and blood. This acid
