Pekin, March 24.-During the last
few days the constant consultations
between the emperor and the high Of
ficials of state have shown that China
is finally alive to her serious situa-
ton. One night the emperor actually
decided to resist Russia by force of
arms, but lack of money and the coun-
sells of Ii Hung Chang prevailed upon
him to stop.
Nevertheless the eyes of the tsung-
H-yamen Chinese foreign office have
been opened to the full extent as to the
value of Russa's promises of friend

emperor exclaimed: why did I not

Pittsburg road have been compelled to
suspend all business on account of a
quarter of mile slide. Mahaffey. so
miles west of Cearfield, only lacked

that the loss will exceed that of the
freshet of 1891. Already river coal in.
terests have suffered losses aggregating
100000 while manufacturing interests
are so severely crippled that great loss
