Itching for a Scrap.

Chicago, June lit is the general
belief in Japan that there will be war
between that country and Russia" said
DR.. r. Fujisawa, a professor in the I'm
perial university of Tokis, Japan, who
passed through Chicago on the way To
the Paris exposition. D. Fujisawa con-
tinued: "While there seems TO be but
little doubt that the differences between
Russia and Japan must ultimately be
settled by war, it is impossible to pre-
dict when that war may begin. Russia
has pursued a course which can be con-
strued only as an intended provocation
to war. Ofcourse. the utmost secrecy
prevails in official japan as to the plans
OF the government, and, officially there
is nothing to indicate that war is expect
ed.
"Work in the Japanese navy is being
pushed as rapidly as possible. 1t ID
given out that the completed navy bill
will be no larger than will be necessary
for a nation which is growing, as is ia.
pan, to protect her commerce and main.
tain her dignity among the powers
The suldenness and rapidity with
which the work was begun and 10 being
pushed, however, indicates that other
and almost immediate use will be found
for it. In the east Russia is thought to
be responsible for the Boxer" troubles,

First Treasure Boat.

Port Townsend, June 1.-THE steamer
City of Seattle, arrived last night from
Alaska with 100000 in gold dust and
26O passengers, most of whom are from
Dawson.
Thus far five boats have reached the
lakes from Dawson and the rush for the
States is fairly on.
Purser Parmlee had charge Of $780,
600 in gold which was owned by the pas
sengers. In addition many passengers
carried their treasure In their state
room.
One man, F. G. Noyes, had three
sacks and one box OF gold, amounting to
$4,000.
Up to May % it is stated that the
clean up had reached Sls,0OO,O0O. The
season opened up from three to four
weeks earlier than any previous year.
The water in the lakes is reported very
low which renders navigation hard and
uncertain.

LoRADo. TUESDAY. JUNE ~, 1900.
BIoodiest Day Of the Strike.

st. Louis, June 11-Cars are running
on all the Transit company's lines today.
in most cases without any police guard.
No trouble has occurred.
Sheriff Pohlman in an interview today
said
II consider the shooting by my depu
ties last night justiaable and unavoida-
BILE. There is no doubt in my mind
that the strikers came over here from
Illinois with the firm intention of max
ing trouble.
In North st. Louis hundreds OF notices
have been affixed in public places. They
are issued from the headquarters OF the
northern division of posse comitatus at
Kossuth and Grand avenues and are
signed by Walter Mcintyre, command
ing the posse, and Charles s. Clarke,
commanding Company H.
The placard recites that the citizens
promised to refrain from collecting in
crowds and destroying public and private
property, and that they have failed to do
this.
The proclamation then continues to
read:
This, then, is to notify you that the
next person caught destroying property
will be arrested and if he resists, will be
shot on the spot. A strong force will be
used to disperse crowds.
Good citizens are warned to keep
within doors for fear they may be shot.
This is positively the last warning"

Difficult Surgical Operation.

A very difficult and successful opera
ton upon a young child, boy, the son
Of Mr.. Mccullough Of Gunpison was
performed few days ago by DR.. 1nger-
soil, assisted by Drs. Bull and Hender-
son.
The little fellow was afflicted with
what is known in medical parlance as
Empy ema, and the operation performed
Thoractomey, which in plain language is
pus around the lungs. A small portion
Of the seventh rib was removed from the
child and it was found that the left
pleural cavity was entirely filled with pus
which upon being removed gave the
grea test relief to the child,
The case was an aggravated one and
DR.. Ingersoll feels gratitied over the sue

operation will permit and the utmost
hope is Entertained OF the full recovery

HIGH HANDED.
Mrs. Petit Ordered Out Of Jail
Reception Room.

The case OF William Petit, as given in
this paper last night has caused great
deal Of indignation to be expressed by
the public.
Last evening while Mrs. Petit was
converting with her husband, as he is
not confined fer any criminal otfense,
Lorin Staley city atty WAS present and
ordered the turnkey to eject Mrs. Pet
tit from the room.
He became abusive to the tournkey,
according to the womans story and she
threatened him with an umbrella in her
hands.
When Mayor Ella became cognizant OF
the Who'll story he went before Justice
Sweeney and ordered that the second
flne be- remitted and the man released. l..
Since when it has become proper for
the city attorney to intermeddie with
affairs at the city Jail is not known. 1t
does not seem that it comes within his
province to bs or do anything except
where a person is brought before the
trial court. AS an officer of the court
he has certain authority. 1t does lot
however pass beyond the precincts OF the
court room and any attempt to impose
any orders or any authority within the
precincts Of the city jail, when made per-
sonally, are without the shadow OF au
thority and mere usurpation
any man has as much right as another
at the city Jail. Outside OF the marshal
night policeman and turnkey all other
persons are trr espas5ers.
: Pettitt the man in Jail refuses to pay
the fine imposed upon him. He says
that it is unjust and illegal and without
the authority of the law. He asserts
that he will fight the city to the bitter
end and will see il citizen OF the coun-
try at large has not some rights which
others hre bound to respect.
TIE wife OF the man confined in the
city jail is we'll educated and seeming
ly refined woman. She has taken his

Of crimiuality connected with his arrest,
very hard and the is quite bitter over
the matter, She knows her rights aud

REVISION OF TAX LAWS.
INDIRECT TAXATION MAY LEAD TO EX-
TRAvAGANcE IN STATE EXPENDITURES.

Albany. jan IA (speciaD.-The recommendation by
both William J. Morgan, the State Controller, and
by the Joint Committee Taxation that the state
Government be supported by indirect taxes. and
that the direct taxes be abolished has been read
with much interest by the members OF the Legls-
lature. The topic of taxation, therefore, promises
to be the leading before both houses
There are some Senators and Assemblymen, how
ever who say that the Legislature ought to give as
much thought to reducing the expenses of the state
to discovering new sources of taxation ana
they express the fear that II the State Government
is supported solely by indirect taxation extrava-
gance may follow at Albany. since taxpayers will
not be able to discover readily indirect taxation
they now do direct taxation.
Controller Morgan in his annual report says that
in 1897 the total amount of money collected for
State, county and town purposes in all the counties
of the State $685. ,7O4 and of this amount real
paid $723 26s and personally $S507436 Con-
troller Morgan adds:
Should the direct tax be removed by the sug-
gested revision it would lift about 81 100000 year
from the overburdened back of real estate, which
would be great of relief. But the question
which presents itself in this connection Is Can
the direct tax be abandoned and the necessary
six years experience in the Controllers office, DUR
ing which period l have given this subject carefu
thought, am prepared to say that the money can
be provided If the proper measures are resorted
State governments without direct tax on real
estate The of this State are vastly great
than those of either Pennsylvania or New-Jersey
The following statement, showing the appropria-
tons for government during series Of years will
he Of interest In this connection:
