NOT THE YEAR.

CHICAGO. Jan. 1S.-The Posts
Washington special says:
Disappointment awaits the people Of
New Mexico and Arizona They have
been knocking for admission into the
Union many years, but the decree has
gone forth that their prayers will be
left unanswered for another two years.
They can thank Speaker Reed and
his little combine for the dose Of dis
appointment brewed for their con-
SUMPTION The explana tion offered is
that it is deemed of the highest i'm
portance to check any further growth
of the silver strength in the senate,
and the best way TO do that is to pre-
vent any increase of representation
from the mountain region. Therefore.
the house committee on territories will
not report the bills for admission of
the territories named until too late for
action by this congress.

CnAsT MEATHER.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 18.-The Pa
cifc coast branch of the United States
weather bureau predicts that the con-
tinued rains of the past five days will
cause floods throughout the state. The
rivers are already overlooking their
banks and the Tule lands are filling.
Farming operations on the lowlands
must inevitably be interfered with. The
entire state except the extreme south
eastern portion, has had all the rain
desired. At Red Bluffs, Colusa and
other points along the Sacramento, the
river is trimming over. The danger
point has already been reached and
both the American and Feather rivers
are also very high What makes the
situation the more serious is the Ger
tainty thai the rise will continue for
forty-eight hours longer. even without
more rain. The downpour still contin-
ues with little probability of clearing
within tWenty-four hours.

wATERwAY COMMISSION.

DETROIT. Jan. 1S.-The United

commission today elected President
Angel. of the University of Michigan,
as chairman, and Commissioner Rus
sell of Massachusetts, as secretary.
President Angel said: 'tAll our com
missioners expected to do is to make
out what might be called a prima
facie case on the question of deep
waterway. Our work is purely pre-
liminary.
The impression that the Canadian
branch of the commission will not be
in favor of a New York outlet is erron-
eous." said Canadian Commissioner
Keefer I'VE would never consent to
have New York side tracked. With
our great wheat fields in Manitoba we
could not afford to consent to such
an arrangement"

REV YORK, Jan. IA dispatch to the
World from Boston says a naval officer
who has just returned from Washington
says: There is reliable authority for the
statement that the administration has
planned a plan of campaign against
Turkey to force the government of that
country to comply with the demand OF
the United States for damages TO Amer
can property and for the future protec-
ton of Americans within her domain.
The authorities do not deny this state
ment though they have not hesllated 10
say that no orders whatever nave been
issued 10 the vessels of the navy for car
rying this order into effect. Upon eN-
cellent authority it is stated that the de-
partment of state recently entered into
correspondence with the foreign powers
and that none OF them will interfere.
1.-The plan as [ understand it. contem-
plates a naval demonstration against
Turkey and perhaps an occupation OF
one of ITS cities. It has in view the con-
centration Of practically the entire United
States navy in Turkish waters. The real
reason why Rear Admiral ounces meet
has been held at Hampton Roads instead
of sailing about Christmas time as was
the original intention is because the au-
thorities have caused the dispatch OF
the feet to Turkish waters. The AsIatlc
SQUADRON has been considered and there
are some officers at Washington VINO De-
lieVe ii is on the way to the Medlterran-
can, as the Asiatic station, usually so
prolific in movements, has not been
heard from in several weeks. The New
ark, in South Atlantic waters, was also
talked Of. The United States would be
able TO make an imposing demonstration
against the Turkish government for the
Turkish navy could not act effectively
against it. Il is antiQuated and could be
easily blown off the seas by the United
States vessels. Il is certain that Some
decisive stroke is being. considered. In
any event there are good reasons for be-
leving that the department will increase
the European squadron by the New York
and probably Two other vessels The
transfer Of Admiral Bunce's flag to the
Maine is regarded in this connection as
significanf.'

Where is the common humanity there?
Between a high-caste Brahmin and dy-
ing Pariah, which would be most power
full. the impulse of compassion or the
restriction of caste? The Pariah might
die the death of the dog, than which he
is no better, according to the stately
gentleman passing that way; but the
saeredness of class exclusiveness must
not be broken, and holy hands must not
be defiled by an unclean touch. This feel
ing of caste and class is universal though
not always manifested with equal fervor
The Jews had it as a nation against other
nations. rather than as class distinctions
among themselves. Though they were
not wanting in this, as witness the con-
tempt felt for the NaZarene and the Sa
marian. and the cold welcome given to
the Gentle who had become a proselyte.
Wherein they and the Athenian autoch-
thone shook hands-the one showing that
it was not only religion they regarded
not only the acceptance Of Jehovah as
the Supreme God over all other gods
the other that the liberties of Athens so
much boosted of were in their nature
partial and restricted, and more in name
than in substance.

BAD GANG AT ROrK SPRINGS.
Cinnamon Beaten BY soIdiers-Fin-
Ianders Have a Row.


Ianders Have a Row.
Special to The Herald)
ROCK SPRINGS, Wyo., Jan. 1S-This
morning two Cinnamon on their way
to work in the mines were attacked by
two United States soldiers and two
mule whaclers employed in the mines
and assaulted in the most brutal
manner. The Chinamen's queues were
cut off. One was knocked down and
kicked in the head numerically, max
ing his head a mass of sores, with one
eye entirely destroyed. He has been
lingering between life and death all
day and cannot possibly recover. The
other Chinaman got off somewhat
easier; besides losing his queue, he
has some ugly flesh wounds in the
back part Of his head, but not con-
sidered dangerous. The soldiers and
their companions had been on
drunken spree all night, and were
ready to attack anybody that crossed
their path. They are locked up to
await the result of their depredations.
Two drunken Finlanders got into a
quarrel this afternoon and when hot
words would not suffice, one drew a
knife and cut big cash in the others
thigh, which may prove fatal. One
Finlander is in the hospital and the
other in the lookup.
