Germanx,s Views.

Berlin, Aug. l9.--The flight of the
dowager empress and the disappearance of
the emperor of China are here regarded as
of much greater and lasting Importance
than the taking of Pekin, and the COM
plications resulting therefrom are specu-
latively discussed by the press, and in po-
litical circles the overwhelming opinion is
that, since all the powers have agreed to
install strong central government at
Pekin, it becomes necessary first to de-
stroy, or at least renuer harmless, the fugi-
tive government, which is responsible for
the whole Chinese eruption. Therefore,
it is claimed, it is necessary to follow
and capture the fugitives. This probably
will call for the employment of large adj
ditional forces besides those which are now
in China.
Surmises as to whether the United
States, Great Britain and Japan will also
share their influence or leave the burden
to Russia, France, and ABOVE all, to Ger
many, fill the papers today. The Ger
man government adheres to the view that
perfect harmony prevails among the powers
regarding immediate action in China. A
number of papers express deep satisfaction
with the ignoring of the reichstag and
the whole of the emperor's China policy,
declaring it far exceeds the limits laid
down by Count Won Buelow, the minister
of foreign affairs, in his circular to the
ruling princes of Germany, on July IL.

REPUBLIC.

A new strike is reported from the
Keno, in Meyers Creek district. The
nature of the strike is unknown. The
property is owned by Mccarthy & Ryan
OF Chesaw, and is considered one of the
best copper prospects in the district.
The biggest consolidation of mining
interests in the history of the north
west is under negotiation. The ex-
pected union is of several of the lead
ing mines of Republic camp and the
man most prominently identified with
it is Senator Miller of New York. SEN
ator Miller is known to represent the
control of the Republic and Quilp and
large eastern capital seeking invest
ment. 1t is believed that an effort is
being made to join to the Republic and
Quilp two or more of the leading mines
Of the camp. What these are is not
definitely known, but the Lone Pine
Surprise is mentioned as one and the
Tom Thumb as another.

A PANIC AT THE BIG FAIR
Second Serious Accident Cast Gloon
Over the Festivities.

Paris, Aug ia second serious acct
dent has happened at the exposition. 1t
occurred upon the occasion of the most
successful fete given, casting deep
gloom over the city. 1t had been decided
to give a night fete befitting the day,
when the prizes were distributed, and con
sequently all the buildings were brilliant
ly Illuminated. All the Paris exposition
was crowded, including the bridges join
ing one part with the other, and it was
on one of these wooden structures, that
joining the Invalides to the Italian pa,
vilion, that the accident occurred.
1t was rumored at first that the bridge
had fallen, but il was found that this was
not absolutely correct, as only the hand
rail on one side had given way under the
following circumstances:
just before ii o'clock some one passing
over from the direction of the Champs
de Mars, shouted: st creaks," and al
though ,.lere was no justification for the
cry it was repeated by the crowd, causing
a panic. Through the pressure of the
crowd on the Invalides side, 30 person:
were. precipitated to the roadway, three
yards below. Two of these were killed
Most of the victims were women.
The minister of commerce, NJ. Millerand
visited the scene and President Loube
sent General Dubois to represent him.

TRADE REPORTS.

New York, Aug. 17.-Bradstreet's re-
port for last week was as follows:
Among the favorable features report
ed this week are advices of further ex-
pansion in fall trade distribution at
leading western centers, with relative
ly the best buying proceeding from
those sections of the southwest which
have profited by good crops, a rather
better distribution by dry goods job
bers at the east, a firmer tone and a
perceptible growth in confidence, ac-
companied by heavy buying in some
classes of steel and iron, and a dis
position and belief that an average
corn and oat crops are assured. Steady
increase in current gross railway earn
ings over year ago and an exception
ally favorable net earnings reported for
the first half of the year are addition
ally encouraging features. The list of
unfavorable elements in the trade stu
alton is at best a negative one, the ap-
proach of a presidential campaign,
though less effective than usual in this
respect, the backward demand for
spring woolens and the slow demand
for the raw material, the restriction
in production of some makes of cotton
goods, the dullness in building mater
ials, notably lumber, and the backward
inquiry for boots and shoes at the east
being among these. Speculation in
nearly all lines, and especially in food
products, is at low ebb. and what
price changes are noted are mainly
because of this, though weather and
crop conditions have played some part
in wheat, corn and cotton, respectively.
The money market, as a whole, is
still easy, the only increase in demand
being noted at the west, where trade
is expanding, but where moving crops
are still in the future. The prices of
staples are perhaps slightly irregular,
but changes are small and the large
number of staples are unchanged.
Wheat (including -four shipments)
for the week aggregate 3,S13,642 BUSH

France Distrustful.

Paris, Aug. 20.-England's decision not
to land troops in Shanghai when con-
WINGED that the other powers would fol,
low her example is conridered here as
not masking her real intention as to
China as being one of selfish interests.
Her intended independent action created
not little criticism, but now that it has
been checked, official circles silently grin
at what is regarded as a rebuff.
1t is even stated that her course cast
suspicion upon the genuineness of Eng
lands attitude regarding the "open-door'
policy, for had England been left in pos
session of the port of Shanghai and in
control of the rich resources of the Yangtse
valley, she easily could have been salts
fed with her position, whether or not the
remainder of the powers secured COM
mercial privileges in the oriental empire.

A mineral exhibit for this years

by Manager Hawley. Owing to the
rather scant information that has been
made known regarding the mineral ex-

about that this end of the exposition
was being side-tracked, and good
many criticisms have been heard from
the mining men. 1t is generally real
lied that the excellent display of ores
made last year was one of the most i'm

MINING NOTES.

The Almaden, Spain, quicksilver
mines annually produce $4,000 fiesks of
76h pounds EACH.
The Antelope claim on Fifteen Nile
creek, owned by John Hill and R. E..
Lee, of Colville, is attracting consider
able attention on account of it's copper
showing, which is improving with ev-
cry shot.
Eighty carloads of machinery for the
Sweeny syndicate are said to be on the
road and expected to arrive soon at
Sites, Idaho, from which place it will
be taken to the Hump over the new
wagon road by way of Badger.
Seats in the Colorado City mining
exchange have advanced from S125 to
$3.50 within period of two years.
and Colorado City is not a mining dis
trict nor are there any great mines
adjacent.
The final cleanup of the Sterlin mine
in eastern Oregon, for the season, was
completed last week and amounted to
1900 OUNCES. The entire amount taken
out during the season is about 500. 900.
which is an average yearly cleanup.
Assays of from 1880 to $166.2O are
reported to have been made of ore
taken from shallow shaft on the Sill
yer King. on Bullion mountain, in the
north end of Ferry county. A tunnel is
being run to cut the ledge 100 feet
down. The Silver King is near the
well known Silver Butte, and is con-
trolled in this city.
