worthy reports permit us to affirm that
Ruiz was shot with Aranguren Friday
by order Of Alexander Rodriguez
After several letters exchanged be.
tween Ruiz and Aranguren. Ruiz left
Havana on Monday to meet Aranguren n
not upon official mission and only as a
friend. 1t is not known how Rod
riguez arrived, but the fact is that the
leader ordered the shooting of both.
1.-The ferocity of such act and pro-
ceeding indicates better than anything
else this faith in autonomy, the insur-
gents being obliged to resort to terror
to prevent the disbanding of their
bands. Such is the general opinion
and public opinion unanimously quail.

HAVANA, Dec. 10. The official state
ment as to the execution by the insur-
gents of Lieutenant Colonel Joaquin
Ruiz of the Spanish troops says that he
was shot ON Friday last by order of In
surgent Commander Alijandro Rodri-
guez, with the approval of Insurgent
Commander Aranguren. The general
opinion is that it was barbarous act.

RuSsia'S Action at Port Arthur
Regarded by Some as the
Second Step.
General European View That
the Occupation Will Be
Permanent.
China Given to Understand
the Move Was for Her
Protection.

LONDON, Dec. 20.-Telegrams from
all the continental capitals show that
Russia's step at Port Arthur is regarded
rs tantamount as a permanent occupa-
tion and reply to Germany's action.
A we'll informed st. Petersburg COR
respondent says there was no agree
ment between Russia and Germany
and that the latter simply warned
Russia when the occupation Of Kiao-
Chau was already decided upon.
The Novoe Vremya pretends that
Japan has no cause for complaint.
"s.nce China is only giving the same
shelter to Russia ships as Japan had
hitherto SO kindly afforded"
This view is not held in Berlin,
where the papers are already talking Of
the possibility of Prince Henry hav-
ing to
Shake His Mailed Fist at Japss,
that is supposed to be secretly backed
up by England. Some Of the Berlin
papers express anxiety. but most Il
them welcome the news from Port
Arthur as justifying the German posi-.
ton at Kiao- Chau, if not as actual evil
dence that Russia and Germany are
acting together. Curiously enough
Emperor William visited the Russian
ambassador on Friday night on his re-
turn from Kiel. The visit lasted an
hour. There is no doubt now that the
emperor and the ambassador discussed
Chinese affairs. +--~-s-. ~
The Paris papers, without pretending
to be deceived by Russia's innocent ex-
plantations, are pleased with the action
of the ally of France.
The burden of Viennese comment is,
what will England do?

MELlEN MAY BE CHOSEN.
President of the Northern Pacific Likely

President of the Northern Pacific Likely
to Go to the Union Pacific.
CHICAGO, Dec. 20.-The Tribune says:
The opinion is gaining ground in rail-
way and financial circles that neither
Edwin w. Winter nor Horace G. Burt
will be the president Of the Union
Pacific. The man now most promi-
nently mentioned for the position is G.
S. Mellen president of the Northern
Pacific.
E. w. Winter was slated, it is said,
for the presidency of the Union Pacific
after S. H. H. Clark had declined to
accept the position on account OF i'll
health.
Rumors have lately been current that
Mr.. Lamont would soon succeed Mr.
Mellen as president of the Northern
Pacific, and thus strength is given to
those reports that Mr.. Mellen had prac-
tically been agreed upon as the most
suitable man tor the presidency OF the
Union Pacific.

Persuaded That the Occupation OF Port

Persuaded That the Occupation OF Port
Arthur Was in Her Interest.
LONDON, Dec. 20.-The correspondent
of The Times at Pekin says: China
approves of the Russian feet wintering
at Port Arthur, being persuaded that
this action is taken in the interest Of
China and necessitated by the German
occupation of Kiao.Chau."
A dispatch to The Times from
Shanghai says the occupation Of Port
Arthur by Russia cannot fail to provoke
popular indignation in Japan, where
public opinion is already excited over
the Kiao-C Chau affair
According to dispatch to The Daily
Mail from Shanghai the high officials
of the Chinese court have advised the
emperor, in view of further complica-
tions, to remove the court to Marking,
the Southern capital. The dispatch
says it is reported there that overtures
have been made to England to exercise
protection over the Yang-Tse valley
and the West river, and that numerous
rumors are current regarding the activ-
ity of the British squadron in Chinese
waters.
The Standard and Daily Telegraph
and other London papers strongly urge
the government to protect England's
interests in China.

Peculiar Conditions May Result In .
Strike of Poiters.
TRENTON, N. j., Dec. 2O.-The manu-.
featuring potters and their employees
are still at odds over the matter Of
scale of wages to go into effect on
Christmas, the time when the manufac-
turers promised they would restore the
1919 per cent cut made on the wages OF
the men some time ago. The men do
not want uniform l211a per cent raise
of the wages they are now getting, but
want notifications made to meet the
changes that have been made in the
matter of designs of certain lines OF
goods and the changes in the demand
for different goods. Several conferences
have been held without result, and the
men are threatening that unless salts
factory result is agreed to by the manu-
facturers by Friday they will go on
strike.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 20.-The great

of the disaster. Mail advices brought
by the steamer Moana state that the
total amouat of damage done is esti-
mated at 81, SOC, 900. About 1000 regu-
lar employees engaged in the soft goods
warehouses were thrown out of work
for some time at least, and about 1000
hands employed in the clothing facto.
ries and other places will also suffer
severely for time, owing to the

Blanco Reports Negotiations Progressing
