That Chinese-Russian Seizure,

LONDON, May ia special dis.
patch from Shanghai says: "The
British and German ministers at
Pekin have protested against the
action OF Russia in occupying part
of the Fore shore at Che Foo, con-
trary to treaty rights"
The dispatch adds that the en-
tire Russian squadron are in
Chinese waters, with rendezvous
at Che Foo, in readiness to occupy
Port Arthur at Kiacho bay, on re.
ceipt of instruction from st. Peters
burg.
In well-informed commercial
quarters in London it is believed
the Che Foo incident is nothing
but an ordinary business deal, as
Ferguson & Co. have been Offering
the land, which is alleged to have
been seized, for sale during years
past. The only cause for disquiet
is found in the fact that the Rus.
sian Steam Navigation company,
through whose agent, Mr.. j. Smith,
an American, the land has been
occupied, is company subsidized
by the Russian government.

Professor Munyon is honored to-
day as the leading authority in the
medical world. His new humane
methods OF treatment have swept
away all the old-fashioned ideas of
doctoring with poisonous drugs
that create dozen diseases in the
effort to get rid of one. He does
not claim that he has one remedy
that will cure all complaints, but
that he has prepared specific cure
for nearly every disease. He does
not claim that Munyon's Rheu-
matism Cure will cure consump.
ton, dyspepsia or any other COM
plant, but he does assert that it
will cure rheumatism. Munyon's
Dyspepsia Cure is prepared ex-
pressly to cure dyspepsia Mum
yon's Cough Cure to cure coughs {;
Munyon's Catarrh Remedies to cure
catarrh; Munyon's Kidney Cure to
cure kidney troubles. The same may
be said of all Munyon's different
remedies. They may be obtained
at all drug stores, mostly at %

Methodist General Conference.

CLEVELAND, o., May 13.-The
Methodist conference was opened
today with Bishop Vincent in the
chair. The first resolution offered
denounced in the strongest terms
the Armenian outrages and mas
sacres, and referred to the apathy
of the Christian governments Of
Europe and America. 1t closed by
calling on congress to pass a Joint
resolution authorizing the presi-
dent to enter into negotiations
with the European powers most
directly interested with a view OF
interfering and preventing further
massacres. 1t was referred to the
committee on the state OF the
church without discussion.
A proposition to change the time
OF holding the general conference
from May to the first Wednesday
in May, aroused discussion on the
point Of constitutionality, but the
vote stood 397 yeas to 19 nays.
The next general conference will
therefore meet on the first Wednes
day in May, 1900.

THE LINDNER-LEWIS AFFAIR.
The Case Tried Before Justice Devine
This Morning.

The Case Tried Before Justice Devine
This Morning.
A large crowd was present in
Justice Devine's court this morn
ing to hear the proceedings in the
case OF Nat Lewis, charged with
committing assault and battery
on DR.. Max Lindner. A case of
abusive language against Mr..
Lewis was quashed. Attorney
Blair was counsel for defendant
and Attorneys Cahill and Evans
represented the state.
The most important point at is
sue was the fee question, which has
caused all the trouble. Anthony
lillian, witness for the state, testi-
fed that Mr.. Lewis showed him
fifteen volumes of the district
clerks fee books and that
it would take fifteen Philadelphia
lawyers six months to 60 over the
books and then they would be un-
able to make an accurate state
| ment.
DIR. Lindner testified that the
county assessor had never kept a
fee book and that he has accepted
several small fees, but that they
were of such little amounts he put
them in his pocket.
Defendant did not put on any
witnesses and the case was sub
mitted without argument to the
jury, which was made up as fol
lows: w. H. Burke, T. w. Eli
son, F. w. Stevenson, A. Peterson
John Wilke, j. H. Reilly.

Although United States Consul Gen
eral Lee has not written his Govern
ment an official letter relative to the
conditions in Cuba, his unofficial cor
respondence has served to strengthen
the opinion that the Spaniards are car
rying on a horrible warfare. General
Lee states that the Spanish authorities
have shown him every courtesy and
allowed him to see Americans who have
been imprisoned. He states that the
insurgents practically control theisl-
and. and the native residents are in
sympathy with them. OF the Spanish
commanders he speaks as follows:
'.They do not regard the laws of mod
ern war nor the usages customary
among civilized nations at all. From
every quarter there is the same testi-
mony concerning the barbarities OF the
Spanish soldiers. Some of the evidence
have heard would be beyond belief

Violations of women, the plumber OF
inoffensiye citizens, murder, every form
of rapine, is the unvarying story OF
prisoners and natives of the island who
happen to be under suspicion, and it
takes very little indeed here to place
you under suspicion" With such re
view of the situation coming from a re-
liable source there is no question as to
which side deserves sympathy and ma
terial assistance. The Spanish speak OF
the Cubans as barbarous and uncivil-
lied. If this is true, the Spanish can
take home to themselves the major
portion of the responsibility for this
condition.

world.

By the steamer City of Peking came
private Geographic dispatches stating
that Hon. Arthur Sewall of Bath, Maine,
had received the nomination for Vice
President at the Democratic conven-
ton. This comes as somewhat of a
surprise, as, according to the newspa-
pers of the 18th inst, John R. Mclean
of Ohio held the lead for second place.
1t is possible that by the selection OF
an Eastern man the Democrats hope
to make a break in the solid New Eng
land and Eastern gold States. From a
political standpoint Sewall's only re-
deeming quality is that he has plenty
of money. 1t will be next to impossible
for him to carry his own State, and it
is doubtful if he can even carry his own
county The only county in Maine
that in the last sixteen years has given
a Democratic majority is Knox county,
and during the last State legislative
fight the Democrats elected only five
men in the whole State.
Although Sewall developed silver
proclivities at the Chicago convention
he has in his own State always posed
as a Cleveland man, and was in fact
one of the leaders in the so-called
Plum Trust" an organization formed
to control the distribution of Federal
offices in Maine during the present
Cleveland administration. He has al
ways fought the few Populists of the
East, and now seems to be an example
of the old adage that politics makes
some queer bedfellows. Arthur Sew

country. having visited here in 1898,
and previous to that time having been

The son, Harold Sewall, was appoint

American flags representing the ma
tionality of the bride and bridegroom
respectively Leading from the cen
trail position around on either side of
the spacious veranda were palms,
maiden hair ferns and other decora-
lions.
The hallway was all in a mass of
yellow, huge punches of marigolds in
Ginning their pretty heads in different
directions, some in light and some in
shadow Decorating the figure which
supports the stair lamp was mari
gold lei, while around it and in and
about were long sprays of the sweet
scented stephanotis blooms. Leading
way from this were sprays of the pur,
pie passion vine in bloom and clinging
to the railing until lost to view around
the curve on the upper floor.
The center of attraction was the
large reception room to the right of
the entrance where the guests of the
evening were received and paid their
respects to the newly married couple
who stood on the Waikiki side of the
room in front of the large bay window
separated by bank of ferns and
palms-a solid mass of green. Above
them was canopy of MALE with a
large basket of maiden hair fern hang
ing directly above their heads.
Upon the wall directly to the left
, of the canopy were two tennis rackets
crossed and decorated each with red
and blue respectively, while from the
center of this combination hung blue
and red ribbons. The design was
meant to represent the Pacific Tennis
Club of which Mr. Samuel G. Wilder
was a prominent member and Miss
Molly Atkinson stauneh friend and
sympathizer.
The mirrow was another spot of
beauty Sprays of the golden shower
trailed lightly from the top of this and
touching the floor, were lost to sight
in other decorations Immediately
before and to the sides of it was a
mass of marigolds, the lighter shades
above and the darker below.
In the corners and about the room
were ferns and palms while worked
artistically around the wires holding
the pictures distributed about the
room, we're small sprays of MALE add
ing just the right touch to complete
the decorations.
Festoons of passion vine hung from
the top of the entrance to the dining
hall which was given up to pink and
white. The large grand piano was
covered with profusion of white and
pink carnations, lilies, marguerites,
daisies and other white and pink flow
ers. Near thisNwas set large vase OF
Gala lilies with smaller white flowers
of various kinds surrounding. Upon
the sideboard was a solid bank of
