FURTHER ENCROACHMENTS.

Russian Troops Continue to Spread Over
Chinese Territory.
VANCOUVER, B. c., April s7.-Oriental
advices by the steamer Empress of
China are as follows:
Russia is making further encroach-
ments. She is, according to Pekin ad-
vices, constructing roads from Pamir
plateau to the frontier of China. A
large force of Russian troops has already
marched from Pamir into the province
of Santiago. Officers commanding the
force declare that they have for their
object the construction of roads, but
their real object appears to be some
thing very different. Chinese local
authorities, reporting the matter. to the
Pekin government, declare that the
Russian troops have arrived to occupy
territory and have warned the govern
ment that that the matter is very grave
indeed.
To avoid partition, the Chinese gov
eminent proposes to open to foreign
trade all those ports or bays which are
in danger Of being claimed by other
powers, before any demand is made.

Steel Billets Sell For see.5o Per Ton ct

P1TTsBURG, April 27.-Prices in the
Pittsburg steel market reached high.
water mark this week. Since Monday
steel billets have been selling at SEC. so
per ton, and that in 1000 ton lots for
delivery in three and four months.
Jones & Laughlin sold one such lot at
that price for Eastern delivery. This is
considered by steel manufacturers as an
indication that there is little danger of
a backward turn in prices for the pres
ent.
In other branches of the iron industry
the same strong tone continues to pre-
vail. Structural material is in such de-
mand that builders all over the country
have put off projected buildings as they
cannot contract to get the steel in time
for this years building.

MAY SEND THE BLACKS.
Administration Considers Them For Use
in the Philippines.

la CAe 1uAAlpVlOeS.
WASHINGTON, April ga PROPOSE
ton to utilize negro troops to large
extent in future military operations in
the Philippines is attracting much at
tention and, it is believed, will be con-
eidered by the administration in the
near future. Such a policy is urged on
the theory that certain racial afilia-
lions may be utilized in way to defeat
rebellious acts on the part of Aguinaldo
and his party and to bring peace to the
newly acquired possessions of the United
States in the East. One-third of the
population of the Philippines are ne
groes Of the same race as those in the
United States and while not numerous
about Manila comprise nearly the en-
tire population of some of the islands.
The advocates of the scheme believe
that in short time there would be an
assimilation between the negroes of the
Philippines and their kindred from the
United States and that there would fol-
low for the colored people opportunities
to get homes and possibilities of careers
they could not hope for in this country.

TORRES WAS BOLD.

The Press from New Orleans says: B
Advices received here from Blue

state that pande onium reigned in that
city on the night Of April 10. Drunken
native soldiers paraded the streets, FIR
ing at inoffensiye citizens and into
houses. Several persons were wounded.
General Torres served notice on the
American merchants that unless they
paid the duties demanded by night he
would close up their places Of business
and confscate their receipts. The mer-
chants held a meeting and decided to
close their stores. The doors were
locked and sealed and the
80 American Flag Hoisted Over Each.
The consequence was that when the

President Will Visit the Cruiser Raleigh
as Intended. - IL :
WASHINGTON, April 27.-Captain .. ;.
B. Coghlan will be in command of the
Raleigh when President Mckinley pays
his visit of state to the cruiser at Phila-
delphia next Friday. It has been de-
termined that prior to the official visit,
if at all, no change shall be made in the
command of the Raleigh, owing to Cap
tain Coghlan's remarks. The president
thinks it would be an unkind and un-
warranted reflection upon the officers of
the ship to neglect to pay the visit,
which has been arranged for and &C.
cupies such prominent place on the
programme. With respect to the
future action of the navy department in
regard to Captain Coghlan it has been
decided that letter of reprimand from
Secretary Long will be sufficient to
meet the needs Of the case, especially
as he is to be relieved Of his command
by the placing of the Raleigh out Of
commission to allow for much needed
repairs. -

Gang of Counterfeiters at Work in the
- Colorado Penitentiary.
CANON CITY, Colo, April 27.-The
discovery has been made that some
very successful coiners have been oper-
ating inside the state penitentiary here.
The counterfeits are silver dollars, and
it is believed they are Of com bination
principally of babbit metal, which was
used in setting the gratings during the
construction of the prison. It is sup
posed the coins were made in plaster of
Paris moulds. The coins were first dis
covered by merchants who sold delica-
cies to the prisoners. This led to an in
vestigation and % of the bogus dollars
were found in the possession of the pris-
oners, though no clew was obtained to
the identity of the coiners. The coins
are so well executed as to deceive al
most any one.

York, where he has been for several
weeks. When asked about the copper
combine he gave it to be understood
that the Anaconda property had not

knowledge that the trust had been con-
summated. Continuing, he said:
ut looks as though the deal would 20

ton of $400, 100000 is nonsense. That
is greatly exaggerated figure. It
