FISHERMEN STARVING.
10000 Japanese with Nothing but
Rats and Rotten Herring to Eat.

TACOMA, Wash, Nov. H.-Late advices
from Japan state that 10 600 or more fisher
men living on Etrup island, northern Japan,
are on the verge of starvation. Some have
nothing TO eat, while others are existing
on rats and putrefed herring. During this
winter all means of transportation between
Etrup island and Bokkiddo province are
suspended, in consequence of which the
island inhabitants are subjected to innum-
cradle hardships in the event of a bad fish
ing season. A big catch being expected this
year. 6,000 fishermen were imported from
Hakodate and Numere Contrary to ex-
pectations, this years fishing has proved
worse than ever. One bank has sustained
loss of $4,000 yen and individuals have
lost from 5000 to $1,000 yen each. Many
dealers have failed and famine prevails
among the people.

A CABINET OFFICER TALKS.
Views Based on RumOr of a Rupture
in Peace Negotiations.

Associated Press Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-The rumor from
Paris that the Spanish peace commission
ers have refused to continue negotiations
and will return to Madrid lacks official con-
firmation here, but is credited in some quar-
ters. Basing his statement on the possibl-
ity that the rumor is founded on truth, a
wellknown member of the Cabinet, in an
interview this afternoon said: "Our govern
ment will still assert precisely what it has
claimed, and it will proceed to carry these
claims into execution. 1t will simply remain
for the American government to hold what
it has proposed to hold for it is now prac-
tically in possession, and all that remains is
to make this possession an actual fact The
Spanish cannot interpose an obstacle. One
significant effect is that this action now
relieves this government of the whole ques-
tion of compensation for the Philippines.
This effectually wipes out all obligation
to make any payment Of moneys to the
Spanish government. No payment was ever
considered by the United States government
beyond the moderate sum, which I will not
name but which was specified in the in
structions given to our commissioners. Now
even this is not to be considered as neces-
sary and the Spanish government cannot
make protest hereafter on that score.
In some respects the rupture is OF dis
tinct advantage to this government. 1t re-

SAN FRANCISCO. Nov 2l-At the Pal
ace Hotel, in this city, are registered a
number of very prominent F1lipinos. They
come direct from the city of Manila and are
en- route to Washington. d. c. The party is
composed of the following: Caludio Reina
Pedro Rungue, Juana Mantella, Este
hania Rungue. Amalia Mellizo and Messrs.
Angue and Miguel Corte. The object of the
visit to the United States just now is to
present large claims for damages before the
President and Cabinet. The damages, the
claimants assert, were incurred owing to the
recent war with Spain, and an attempt will
be made to show that valuable property
owned by the Filipinos was destroyed by
the American troops. 1t is not definitely
known just how large an indemnity will be
asked for by the F1lipnos, but it is believed

LONDON, Nov. 22-The morning papers
concede the generosity of the offers of the
United States peace commissioners and ex-
press the opinion that Spain would be fool
ish to reject them. They express universal
qualification at the announcement of an
"open-door'' policy in the Philippines. The
Daily Mail calls the offer of $4,000, 900 as
indemnity "a surprising act of generosity"
The papers generally take it for granted
that the "open door, will be adopted in the
West Indies also.
The Daily News says: "The United States
have now become an Asatic power, and
Lord Salisbury clearly had reason to pre-
dict that the expansion of the United States
would give Great Britain valuable ally in
the China seas"

LONDON, Nov 22.-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Daily Mail says: General
Rios, the Spanish governor of the Visayas
islands, cables from Ilolio that the rebel
lion of the native forces in the Spanish mill
itary service has been subdped. Ninety
seven rebels were court-martialed, of whom
twenty-five were shot and sixty-nine SEN
fenced to imprisonment for life, with hard
labor. The insurrection at Davas, in Min
danao, has been suppressed. according to
General Rios, and tranquility prevails in the
rest of the islands, except Negros. General
Rios asserts that the Spanish garrison at
Iolilo made several sorties, infiicting serious
losses upon the rebels. He adds, also, that
at Soho the rebels continue to besiege the
town."

which Dec. IA and 10 have been set, has re-
ceived telegram from the President, re-
questing it to change the name of the cele-

ference and the exigencies which may
arise" The executive committee of the cele-
bration held a special meeting on receipt
of the Presidents telegram and decided to
designate the demonstration as THE At
lanta jubilee" The dates will remain as at

have accepted invitations to the affair is be-
heved to be assured.

NEW TRIAL FOR SWALLOW.
Criminal Libel Case Growing Out of
Pennsylvania Politics.

PennSyIVun1a Politics.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 2l.-The State
Superior Court to-day granted a new trial
to Rev. Silas c. Swallow, who was con-
victed in the Dauphin county court of Grim
inal libel against John C. Delaney, state su-
perintendent Of public grounds and build
ings. DR.. Swallow, in his paper, the Penn
sylvania Methodist, charged Delaney with
corruption and malfeasance in office in con-
nection with the purchase of material and
supplies for the fitting up of Grace Church,
Harrisburg, for the meetings Of the Legis-
lature after the Capitol had been burned.
The Superior Court, in the course of its
opinion. says the publication relates to the
official conduct of officers or men in public
capacity and was not maliciously, negli-
gently made and is. therefore, privileged,
under the constitutional provision on the
subject Swallow was the gubernatorial
candidate Of the Prohibition and Honest
Government parties at the recent election,

AGONCILLo INDIGNANT.
He Resents Gen. Merritt's Reference

to FilipinOs as Children.
LONDON, Nov. 21.-Agoncillo, the agent
of Aguinaldo, with his advisers, returned
here from Paris this MOI ming. He an
nounced himself as being very indignant
at the statement made by Wesley Merritt
in reply to the arraignment of American
officers made by the insurgent Hunta of
Hong Kong, in an open letter to President
Mckinley and the people of the United
States through the Associated Press. The
general situation also displeased Agoncillo
and after recalling to an interviewer 'how
the Filipinos have Loyalty and effectively
aided the Americans" he added: General
Merritt's reference to the Filipinos as
children is simply an echo of a Spanish
saying. and he may, like the Spaniards
find his error when it is too late. 1 am
afraid the Filipinos will never again submit
to the yoke of a colonial government
Rather than live again as slaves, they will
fight to the bitter end in defense of their
rights and freedom. My instructions are
to claim the recognition of their independ-
ence.'
What do the Filipinos think of the
American proposal to purchase the ISL
ands?" Agoncillo was asked.
"The opinion of the Filipinos government
cannot be favorable to it," he answered
''as they cannot allow themselves to be
bought and sold like merchandise. But, if
the object of the moderate indemnity is
that their recognition and peace be estab-
lshed, do not see why the matter should
not be submitted to their consideration"
Aguinaido's agent was then asked what
form of government the Filipinos would
prefer, if they could not get complete in
dependence, but declined to answer, on the
ground that it would be premature to do
so; but expressed confidence in the honor
of the American Nation and President Nc
Kinley, who would not permit any mis-
understanding"

SPAIN WOULD LOSE LITTLE.

Throughout diplomatic quarters the view
prevailed that Montero Rios spoke for the
commission and for Spain, and that the only
Interpretation to be put upon his course
was that Spain had determined to break off
negotiations, taking the chances of re-
newal of war. BY such a course, it was
pointed out Spain could lose little more
than she was losing by the course of the
peace negotiations, as Cuba and Porto Rico
already had been lost. the Philippines were
demanded, and the bulk of the colonial
debts was left for Spain to liquidate, while
she doubtless continued in the hope that
some of the foreign powers would come
to her relief. The leading diplomatic Off
cials here agree that in this hope Spain will
be disappointed, as it is said the powers
have so many of their own entanglements
to look after just now that they will not
invite a rupture with the United States,
even though they may consider Spain's po-
sition to be right Even Austria and France,
which are the countries most favorably In
clined TO Spain, have given recent evidences

CLIMATE AND CHARACTER.

1 There are advantages in the more checkered course of the American eli
 mate It has killed off many weak lings, but it has developed a resource
 ful character, mind ready for sud
 den emergencies. Nature must have
 begun this educating influence imme- diately the Pilgrims landed on the | bleak New England shore; for they as suredly could not have survived at all
 unless they had been able to accom-
 modate themselves to the caprices of that exacting climate so amusingly
 described by Mark Twain. Many im-
 provements III ways Of living. in
 houses and in dress have been intro
 duced into America as the result of
 the educating influence of climate
 The mind has been quickened, the character made more eager and more inventive by the pressure Of natural forces. On the other hand, just as Englishmen are Tn danger of stolid- ity as the extreme of their calm con- fidence, so Americans are in danger of violent nervous tension as the out come of a climate full of surprises The sudden political settlements of America, so often inexplicable on purely political lines, may perhaps be explained on the hypothesis of an or ganism subjected to severe overten- sion; and the sudden violence of American labor disputes, like a bolt from the blue, may be due to the same cause. Our own race has in this is land home slowly drawn in from the soil and climate an immense stock of vigorous energy, but energy dominat- ed by calm directive force. Rome had similar power, and hence Rome and England have in two distinct orders of civilization, been able to spread, to organize and to command through out vast regions of the world. For this quality we may partly thank the favorable physical conditions which have obtained here. The American branch of our stock has, on the other hand, been compelled to face new eli matic conditions, which have develop ed ingenuity and resource, but at the expense of nerves. Each type of char acter has it's own strength and valid ity, and each is competent to effect a great work in the world.-London Spectator.

FINISHING HOG FOR MARKET.

It is coming to be the general opin- ion in eastern states that the only way to make money by raising any kind of livestock is to keep it growing from it's birth and turn it off early. In the case of hogs it is preferred not to let them pass a single winter. While the eastern conditions are so different that we cannot assume that what is the best practice there will be found the best here, yet we shall do well to un- derstand the eastern idea. There the packers now demand lean hogs, for the reason that their customers want them, their change of taste growing out of the changed condition of mod ern life, under which men expose themselves less, have a less desire for fatty foods, which in fact, they obtain far more than formerly from vegetable oils
 They are also becoming more fas tidious in their tastes ana nave discov- cred that young hogs make the most desirable hams and the most savoTy bacon. A pig that can be made to
 weigh 150 to 200 pounds in seven months will yield more profit than a 300 pound hog a year old. The short CT their lives the less danger Of their loss by disease Some experiments have shown that up to 150 pounds less than five and a half pounds of food on the average, made a pound of pork, while with 800 pound hogs it took eight pounds to make the same weight It has been proved that up to fifty pounds, at given price for grain, the pork costs three cents a pound but that at 175 to 200 pounds each pound added costs nearly six cents. Of course, the principal food must have been much higher than here, but the principle involved is the same for us as for them.
 l In finishing hogs their health must | be constantly looked after. They
 must have clean feeding platforms and pure water. The ration must be so | balanced as to supply muscle as well
 as fat. An exclusive corn ration will | not make the highest priced pork. | The Canadian farmer balances his starchy corn with nitrogenous peas or | beans. Alfalfa is a good food. So is
 skim milk when made into a mush
 with ground grain. Fed as a drink it
 is not well digested. The good farm
 CTS no longer keep their swine in filth
 but give them dry quarters, clean
 food and pure water, keep charcoal
 where they can run to it, crowd them from the day of their birth, kill young
 and make money-Denver Field and | Farm.
