UNCLE SAM LED.

Washington, Oct 20.-Thc British est in diplomatic circles and was the chief subject of discussion at the vars~ ous embassies and legations. The Franco Russian view was that the agreement did not add materially to the declarations already made by Rus sa and France concerning the preser- Nation of China's territorial integrity. The Japanese minister looked upon the agreement as d step in the right direc ton and said, no doubt it would com mend itself to the Japanese govern ment and receive it's approval. The German charge had not been advised of the arrangement and under the cir Cumstanccs was not disposed to discuss il.
 The Chinese minister received the
 Kings of the alliance with the kcencst
 Yercst and said
 '"'rhis is a most important move ment and I hope ii will lead to a com plete settlement. The agreement i,s cX- actly in line with the American posi- ton laid down in Secretary Hays note of July 3 to which the governments gave their assurance. But coming at this time with two such powerful ma tions, the agreement ought to exert a strong influence toward a settlement. In fact the United States. Russia. France and Japan having taken the same position, favorable to the terri torial integrity of China. there appears to be nothing in the way of complete acceptance of this principle"

MINING TROUBLES.
The Conduct of the United Statei
Forces I'm Idaho Last SINNER Being
Investigated.

Washington, Feb. 21.--The hearing
Of witnesses in the investigation of al
legged improper action by the United
States military authorities at Ward
ner, Idaho, began Tuesday before the
house committee on military affairs
The first witness, A. A. Fraser, i
lawyer of Shoshone county, where the
trouble occurred, testified that the
civil courts were doing business at the
time when martial law is said to have
been in operation. Representative
Lentz, who conducted the inquiry, ex
planned that this was groundwork
for Judging the need of martial law.
Fred c. Robertson, a lawyer of Spo
kane, told of visits to the scene of the
riots, including what he termed the
bull pen," and gave detailed de-
scription of the mines where the trou-
BILE occurred. He explained the friction
growing out of the employment of
non-union miners by the Bunker Hill
mine, the gathering of 1000 miners IN
April % and the destruction caused ~
the dynamiting of the Bunker Hill
plant. Gov. Steuntberg proclaimed
that state of insurrection existed
and several men were arrested and put
in the bull pen" Mr.. Robertson ap-
piled for writs of habeas corpus for
the arrested men. but the courts held
that they would not interfere with the
action of the governor, which, In ef-
feet, the witness said, was suspen-
sion of the writ of habeas corpus.
Washington, Feb. 22.-The investi-
CATION of the mining troubles and the
conduct of the United states forces
| in Idaho last summer continued We'd
nesday before the house committee on
military affairs. Frederick {. Robert
son resumed his narrative begun Tues
day, giving the legal proceedings he
adopted in behalf of the imprisoned
miners and the difficulties he claims
| to have encountered from the military
authorities, state officials and the
courts. He said he was refused per-
mission to be present at the inquest
of those killed during the outbreak
and was unable to communicate with
| the accused miners as to their rights,
although representatives of the min
| ing company were present. he pro-
! tested to the attorney general that
| the miners We're being denied the
| right of counsel.
The witness said Gen. Merriam was
in charge of the bull PEN These
were mprovised quarters, as no prison
was available, and consisted of old
| buildings and box cars surrounded by
a wire fence. Mr.. Robertson express
ed the opinion that the United States
| forces should have been used to pre-
serve order and uphold the civil au-
! thoritieS but. in fact, he declared,
they superseded the civil authorities
and in some instances, which were de-
tailed. arrested mem in no way con-
nected with .he outbreak.

SILVER is THEIR TRUST.
of the Anti-Trust Con-
ference of the Ca1am-
ityites.

If any doubt eXi-ted as to the pur-
pose of those in control of the anti
trust conference to convert it into u
calamity bureau for the manufacture
of Bryan campaign material that
doubt was removed by the adoption of
a voluminous set of free silver rcsolu-
tions which were telegraphed to Wash
ington.
These resolutions were n vehement
protest against the gold standard cur
rency bill now pending in the senate,
which it declares is a conspiracy to
"enthrone the money oligarchy, estab-
lish a continental bank trust, enslave
the people and destroy the republic to
the end that free government may per-
ish from the earth" The proposition
to make all debts payable in honest
dollars is characterized by the resolu-
tions as 1.-The most audacious, danger
Gus and oppressive measure ever pre-
scented to a Legislative body by set of
conspirators.'
1t is true that President Lockwood
and one or two delegates protested
against these resolutions as not ger
name to the subject which the confer
cnce was called to discuss, but their re-
monstrance was of no avail against
the evident determination of the del
egates to put the conference on rec
ord against sound money. The reso-
lutions were adopted with vociferous
acclaim: in fact no speech or utterance
during the conference elected such an
enthusiastic demonstration of approx
al.
The two or three persons who pro-
tested claimed that it was their under
standing that the conference was to be
nonpartisan and educational. 1t is
difficult to conceive how they could
gather such an idea from the pub
lished circular giving the programme
of speakers and objects of the confer
ence. 1t was distinctly advertised as
an antitrust conference, and it has
been thus far true to it's name.
An "anti" conference of this charac-
ter must necessarily be against every
thing that it is. 1t is anti everything
and comedies no good in anything. The
remedies it proposes for industrial ills
are radical and revolutionary. 1t
would destroy all proprietary rights
and all individual initiative and en-
terprise Government ownership of
everything is the burden of its song.
Several speakers even advocated the
withdrawal of government protection
from the products of inventive genius,
declaring that patent monopolies"
should be destroyed.
No sane person expects any rational
remedies for economic or industrial
ills from such a Chicago
1imes-Herald.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

OOne reason why democrats are
willing TO nominate Bryan again is that
he can make more noise while taking a
licking than any other man in the coun
try.-St. Louis GlobeDemocrat.
CTThe small audience which greeted
Mr.. Bryan in New York when 25-cents
admission fee was charged is prcsump-
tive evidence that there are many to
whom Mr.. Bryan looks like Il far small
er sum than 30 cents.-Albany Journal.
ETThe Louisiana republicans are not
very numerous, but they are enthu-
siastic. They already have their state
ticket in the field. and are out with IL
platform strongly indorsing McKin-
ley's ministration.-Iowa State Reg
istCr.
DWith the opening of the mills
making it profitable for silver mine
owners 70 produce 100000 ounces
more this year than last year, the gild-
ed west may conclude after all that
Bryan is not a true prophet.-Pitts-
burgh Times.
r-2For the first time in nearly 80
years the Pennsylvania delegation will
in the coming republican national con-
vention support a successful candidate.
All will be for Mckinley regardless of
fractional divisions on other questions.
Philadelphia Press.
OCol. Bryan is having a pleasant
time among the New England Yankees,
even if he doesn't make any votes there.
The silverite is surely getting good
idea of the greatness of the country
to which the election of Mckinley re-
stored sperity.-Clevcland Leader.
ETIt is unfortunate that Mr.. Bryan
should have told the people of New
Jersey that the state is den of thieves
because of its liberal or loose ;aws
relative to the organization or cap
italiZation OF trusts, StCce all these
laws were enacted when New Jersey

DCongrcssman Siblcy, of Pennsyl-
vania, who has .iast formally come
over to the repu',lioan side of the fence
