PROBABLE FUSION IN OREGON
MAJORITY OF THE PoPULISTS
SEEM TO FAVOR IT.
Fight Expected In State Convention
Observation-Disclosures of Republican
Boodleism In Philadelphia.

Portland. Ore, March 23.-The Popu-
list. Democratic and free silver Repub-
licar state conventions met in this city
today. The Democrats and silver Re
publicans effected permanent organiza-
ticn, but the Populist convention was
still working under a temporary organ
ization when an adjournment was taken
until tomorrow
The sentiment expressed in the Dem
ocratic and free silver Republican con-
Nentious today was unanimous in favor
OF a fusion of forces in the coming
campaign- There was a different state
of affairs in the Populist convention.
X. c. Luse, national committeeman; j.
c. Young, chairman of the state central
committee; State Senator r. H. Holt
and other Populist leaders expressed
themselves as opposed to fusion unless
it can be accomplished under the name
of the Populist party, and on the P9pu
list platform as adopted at Omaha. 1t
was, however demonstrated in the cleo
ton of a temporary chairman that
majority of the Populist delegates favor
fusion in some form.
There are contesting delegations from
three counties, and tonight it is appar-
ent that a fight will be precipitated in
the convention tomorrow between the
fusiorists and the middle-of-the-road
delegates when the credentials commit
tee makes its report.

CHINA's DISTRESS.
Emperor Actually Decided to Resist
Russia

Pekin, March 24.-During the last few
days the consultation between the en-
peror and high officers of state have
shown that China is finally aware OF
the serious situation. One night the
emperor actually decided to resist Rus
STA by force of arms, but lack of money
and the counsels of Ii Hung Chang
prevailed upon him to stop.
Nevertheless, the eyes of the tsung
Ii yamen have been opened to the fullest
extent as to the value of Russia's prom
ises of friendship, and during a recent
discussion the emperor exclaimed:
why did I not accede to the opening
of Ta-Lien-W Wan when England pro-
posed it?''
Germany is beginning to experience
some difficulty in the province of Shan
Tung, where the natives declare that
in spite of the emperOr's proclamation
they will oppose with violence the con-
struction of the projected railway.
London, March 24.-The Nagasaki
correspondent of the Daily Mail says:
China, it is reported, refuses to accept
Russia's pledge that the occupation of
Port Arthur will not be permanent I'M
less the document is countersigned by
France and Germany, but it is believed
if she does not accede to the Russian
demand before Saturday next Russia
intends to seize Port Arthur and Ia

FLAG there

be treated as a separate and distinct
incident for the present.
There was some discussion as to what
would be done with the report OF the
board of inquiry when it reached the
senate Monday. and it is probable that
a motion will Immediately be made to
refer it TO the committee on foreign
relations. The members of the naval
committee claim that the senate, having
authorized it TO investigate the Maine
disaster. this committee should have
the report of the naval board referred

as right.
An effort will be made to adjust the
whole matter by the time the report
arrives, so that no debate will occur un-
til after the committee has considered
the renOrt.

INSULT TO THE WEST.
Charles Dudley Warmers Dirty Fling
At Silver Men.

Mexico City, March 6.-Charlcs Dud-
ley Warner. the American author now
here, says on the Cuban question, that
he much doubts the ability of the
Cubans TO govern themselves and adds:
There viii be no war. But many
things combine TO a warlike feeling and
the appearance of preparations for war.
We have in the west an element OF
population that is always ready for an
adventure. They are constantly asi-
tating for money. They want free sill
ver-I don't mean the free silver as you
have it here but silver artifcially
maintained by the government. at al
unnatural ratio with gold. They are
ready to- support any adventure that
will force the government TO use more
silver or paper money. 1t takes the
same people who at the time of the
Venezuelan question ALMOST wanted the
government to declare war at once
against Great Britain, and for the same
reason.
Then, too. there is in all of our large
cities. an unsettled element of popula-
ton who are ready for any sort of adj
venture merely for adventures sake,
and the less thinking element, as / have
said, has been stirred UP by stories pub
lished in the sensational journals.
Another thing combines TO the ap-
pearance- OF warlike preparations. Sen
ator Hawley, who is no more of jingo
than l, and other senators and men,
bers of congress. have long been anxi-
Gus to increase our artillery force and
coast defenses. Advantage was taken
of the present circumstances to obtain
from congress the necessary money for
this purpose. which would not have
been voted at any other time. l am
quite in favor of such expenditure.
Il am quite of the opinion that every
nation should be in a position TO pro-
tect itself and to resent affronts but
the activity in this respect, just at
has given additional color to
the reports that war is imminent"

SOUND MONEY LEAGUE.
Notwithstanding Activity of Silver
ties, Goldbugs Are Sanguine.

Chicago, March 2S.-The first annual
meeting of the vice presidents of the
National Sound Money League founded
a year ago, was held today at the head
quarters in thei Monadnock building.
Tho purpose of the meeting was tire
election of an executive committee and
officers.
z. V. Smalley. general secretary, in
his annual report, said:
Reports from all parts Of the coun-
try are encouraging. They show that
while the silver movement is still active
II will not be able to hold together at
ancthernational election, the great vote
that it cast at the election of 1896. In
the opinion of your secretary the work
of the league should be continued with
out relaxation, and should be pushed
with increased activity and kept upon a
ncn-partisan basis as heretofore

NOT a SCIENTIFIC REPORT.
Grounds For Such Opinion of the
Maine Investigation.

Havana, March 29.-La Lucia, in an
editorial under The CAPTION of "Expec-
tation in the World" maintains that
the American court OF inquiry. owing to
the short time it was here, could not
give a scientific report of the Maine
disaster.
American naval officers" says La
Lucia, ARE not likely to decide against
brother officers. The divers could not
give expert testimony, owing TO the
fact that the machinery was imbedded
four feet in the mud. 1t is greatly to
be regretted that more time and care
were not given to the preparation of a
report for which the whole world waits
and which is likely to change the entire
feelings of part OF the American peo-
pie toward Spain and Cuba"
La Lucia publishes also an interview
with Consul General Lee. which quotes
him as saying that he knows nothing
of the nature of the report, but is sat
isfied that General Blanco never con-
ceived of the disaster until he heard
the shock in the harbor.

SENATE MAINE INVESTIGATION.
Committee On Foreign Relations Pre-
pairing For COURTS Report.

Washington. March, 23-The senate
committee on foreign relations, at its
meeting today. informally discussed the
Cuban situation. The consensus OF opin-
ion, based upon information which has
been received from the administration
by various members, was that the pres

member of the committee said that the
course of the president was surely con-

would have the moral support of Eu-

JOYOUS NEWS FOR MILITIA.
Apt to Be Sent First On Call For
Volunteers.

Washington, March 23.-Secretary Al
gers office at the war department pre-
scented an unusually busy aspect today.
a number of members of congress
called to have a word with the secre-
tSsry, among them being Senators Lodge
and Hoar, and Representative Marsh Of
Illinois. Abner Mckinley, the presi-
dents brother. was also among those
who called, but his stay was very
brief.
Representative Marsh is chairman Of
the house committee on militia, which
has recently reported the bill to re-
organize that body Of state soldiery to
raise its efficiency and to appropriate
1,0ce 600 for its support. The chair
man said he had spoken to Speaker
Reed recently in regard to the bill, and
he hoped to be able to. call ii up in the
house for consideration within a rea-
sonable time. During his interview
with Secretary Alger, Mr.. Marsh urged
that in the event of hostilities the first
recourse Of the government for soldiers
should be the state militia, who should
be invited to volunteer for the coun-
try's defense.
WELL ORGANIZED.
These men, ne pointed out, are well
organized. well drilled and differed,
and are in a position to render very
effective service. In view of these facts,
Mr.. Marsh believed that ii was the
duty of the government to call upon
these old soldiers for duty in case they
care to volunteer. If any members or
officers of the guard preferred not to
enlist because of family or business
care and responsibilities, then their
places might be taken by volunteers
from outside the service.
Secretary Alger was very much inter-
ested in the arguments made by Marsh.
and while not committing himself on
that subject, seemed to regard the sug-
gestion made by him as practicable
Afterwards Mr.. Marsh called on Presi-
dent Mckinley and repeated the state
ments he had made to the secretary.
DRY ToRTUGAs.
During the morning Secretary Alger
was also in conference with General
Miles, commanding the army, respect
ing the military occupation of Fort JEFF
ferson on Dry Tortugas Island. The
determination to garrison this fort has
been reached by the secretary after a
conference with his aids and the navy
department officials, and the questions
now to be met are those of what i'm
provements in the Notifications now
there may be necessary.
The armament of Fort Jefferson at
this time consists of probably over a
hundred old-time smooth-bore guns,
which would have to be supplemented
by number of additional ones of mod
ern pattern and effectiveness.
ARTILLERY ENLISTMENTS.
Reports to the war department show
that about 400 men up to this time have
been enlisted for the two artillery regi-
lnents recently authorized by congress.
About 1000 men in all are required
Most of the new recruits are sent to
join old established regiments. and in
many cases experienced men from the
latter are detailed for duty at the sea-
coast Notifications.

ARTILLERY ENLISTMENTS.
GREELY AND BALLOONS.
Pointed Out TO Alger Their Invalu-
able Services For War


able Services For War.
Washington, March 23.-Secretary AL
ger had with him in conference for
some time today General A. w Greedy,
chief signal officer of the army. Cen
eral Greedy has urged upon the secre-
tary the Importance of an allotment of
money for the purpose of connecting
the various parts of the Notifications
at seaport cities by means of electrical
communication, and in response to his
fepI esentations on this subject work in
that direction is about to begin in New
York harbor.
Another matter which General Greedy
thinks of grear Importance to the army
in case of hostilities, is the employ
ipent of balloons for observation pur-
poses. He has asked repeatedly for an
appropriation from congress for expert
ments in this line, but thus far his eff
forts to obtain money have been unsuc-
CesSful.
He hopes that some money may soon
be put at his command for experiment.
ing with balloons, as he claims they
would be invaluable for many purposes
in time of war.
