A HITCH In THE DEAL
JAPAN's PLANS IN COREA BALKED
BY THE QUEENS FACTION.
Serious Diplomatic Question ms 10
Whether Japan VIII Withdraw
from the Continent.

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 1.-The steamer
China from Toxic July 20 brings the follow
ing sdvices: The work of establishing thor
oughly friendly relations with Corea must
be commenced anew. under conditions even
less advantageous than those which exist
ed when Inokye took command. The Queen
has firmly united all anti-Japanese political
forces. and placed herself ostentatiously al
their head. Her ambition will not however
be allowed full play as the King has sud-
denly announced his intention of governing
in person. and has taken steps toward re-
organizing the administration to suit his
own fancy. The Corean Kings disposition
to erect a barrier between the court and
the Japanese representative is shown by
his recall to office of the American general
lie Gendre, conspicuous figure in Corean
policies, whose opposition to Count Inouye
is undisguised, and who will certainly do
his best to reverse everything that the en-
voy has done in the past six months. One
OF Inouye's worst errors was to antagonize
lie Gendre. Working together, the two
men might have accomplished genuine re-
forms in Corea.
The Japanese government maintained its
severe measures toward political opponents,

government still continues. however and
the government may be forced to convene

II the radicals prove more intractable,
Count Ito will be powerless to carry public
business, and he will have TO choose be-

The German military system will be adopt

DURRELL ASKS $25,OOO
INDEMNITY FROM HAWAII DEMAND
ED BY AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.
He Was Confined I'm n Honolulu
Prison Seven Weeks at the Time
of the Royalist Uprising.

HONOLULU. July 25.-Considerable pres-
sure is being brought to bear to cause the
Legislature, now in session, TO pass
joint resolution authorizing and instruct
Ing President Dole to reopen annexation
negotiations with the United States. At a
meeting recently held by the native Ha-
waiian organization resolutions to that ef
feet were passed. 1t Is believed that such
resolution will be introduced by the ex
ecutive before the Senate adjourns.
The first claims for damages against the
government for wholesale arrests made
during the January revolt Is in the hands
Of Minister Hatch. 1t was handed to him
by United States Minister Willis. The
claimant is James Durrel. an American
citizen. He was arrested and confined
about seven weeks. No charge was made
against the man. He was simply held on
suspicion. He filed claim for twenty-five
thousand dollars damages with the Amer
lean minister. which was duly forwarded
to the State Department. An answer came
by the last mail. Minister Willis's state
ment to Minister Hatch says that DurreIl
declares he has never by word or deed
forfeited his allegiance to the United
States; that he has neither done nor spo-
ken anything, directly or indirectly. against
the government OF Hawaii or it's laws:
that he has never expressed sentiments an
tagonistic TO that government or In any
manner counselled. encouraged aided or
abetted its enemies. either An armed re-
bellion or secret plotting.
These statements" Mr. Willis says. "es-
tsblish, in the opinion of the President of
the United States, prina facie claim for
substantial indemnity from the Hawaiian
government TO Mr.. Durrell. l am instruct
ed. therefore, to bring this case to the at
tention of the Hawaiian authorities. leav-
ing no doubt in their minds of the conf
dence felt at Washington that the govern
ment OF Hawaii will not refuse to tender
adequate reparation to this injured citizen
OF the United States. nor hesitate to take
prompt measures TO exonerate him from
the imputation which this arbitrary treat
ment has left on his good name"
II is believed that Minister Willis's letter
will lead to international complications. as
IL Is understood that this government does
not intend TO pay Durrell one dollar
James Horsburg. jr.. of the Southern Pa
cihc company, recently spent a few days
In this city, and, il Is learned. sounded the
government and business men regarding
an opposition line of steamers from San
Francisco TO Honolulu. The probability is
that the Occidental and Oriental steamers
will soon be plying between there and San
Francisco.

CABLE CAR RUNS WILD
SHOT DOWN 3oO-FOOT CHUTE
WITH TWENTY PASSENGERS.


CHICAGO, Aug Ia serious accident
happened at the "chutes' tonight at
sixty-third street and Cottage Grove ave-
nue.. A car containing about twenty people
was near the top of the chute when the
cable broke and the car went tearing down
the slide of three hundred feet. a wild
panic ensued among the people in the car.
and many of them, in desperate efforts to
escape. were spilled out. The following
were injured
KATIE MoRENGARD. face and head
bruised.
FRED EBBETT. left leg fractured and
bruised; may die.
. NJ. A. McINERNY, bruised about the
face
J. f. HUSSEY. badly cut on side.
Miss NJ. CROOK, right leg bruised.
Miss MINNIE HEIDI, right side and leg
bruised.
MISS s. j. WHITE. bruised about head.
C. DUNLAP, battered up. in a serious
condition.
MISS MAUD HEFFERoN, head and
ankle bruised.
CHARLES A. scHALDENBRAND, in
jured about legs.
GEORGE EMERSON. right leg bruised.
FRED SHARP. badly bruised.
MAX ERLINDORN, head cut.
J. HUSSY, left leg badly cut.
The injuries of Miss Crook, it is believed,
will prove fatal. her head having been so
badly cut that a portion of her brain oozed
out.
The car was approaching the place at
the top OF the slide when the stop is usu-
ally made. when John Parin. the motor
men, found that his grip had caught and
the edge of the platform and called on the
passengers to jump. The car shot past the
platform. There was a crash, a recoil, and
the car. released from the cable by the
contact with the timbers at the end, rolled
back.
The passengers were thrown from their
seats into the bottom of the boat. When it
passed back half dozen persons jumped
out. Perrin caught woman's hand and she
fell on the planks. The car and its load
trembled moment at the verge of the de-
scent, then shot down. George Emerson
leaped from the boat as it was half way
down, and fell headlong to the ground. An
other form pushed out. Then, with
crash louder than the first, the boat came
to a standstill at the bottom of the incline.
Its occupants were thrown among the
broken beams and boards.
There was a wild panic among the crowd
of spectators and among the occupants of
the other cars, but the wounded were quick
ly carried away by the ambulance. The
slide down which the car flew is fully three
hundred feet long, and slopes at an angle
of 80 degrees from the ground.
The people who patronized the chute
would get into a car at the bottom of the
incline, and. after being drawn to the top,
would enter a small boat. which would be
allowed to slip down the chute at lightning
speed into a large pool Of water at the
bottom of the slide. The accident occurred
just as the car reached the top of the in
cline.
