T H BUT TROUBLE.
RIOTS, MURDERS AND MALICIOUS
ACTS TOWARDS MISSIONARIES.
Americans and Germans Have Escaped
Death Solely by Means Of Pluck
and Diplomacy.

Washington, April 30.-Consul Fowler
has included in his annual report publish
ed by the bureau of foreign or
the state department, a short chapter de-
voted to the missionary troubles in Shan
Tung and Northern China. He says:
''Since Christmas there has been moth
ing but trouble Riots, murder and acts
of the most diabolical nature have been
committed upon the native adherents of
the missionaries. The situation grew so
bad that the Germans sent inland a
strong military force, burning down one
or two villages and taking back with
them several of the leaders of the viii
lagos as hostages for future peace
ON several occasions Americans and
Germans escaped by diplomacy and
pluck. The indemnity for these outrages
has just been paid and now the whole
western part of the providence is in a
ferment and much care will be necessary
to pass the winter without the loss of for
eign life.
Several causes for this charge car be
found. The floods and the famine natur-
ally raise disturbers in all lands. The
governor who so successfully kept the
peace was removed and the present in
cumbent is known to be opposed to for
eigners and things foreign and when the
governor is histile one can count on local
officials being the same.
There was one noble exception. The
official at Ichafu did all in his power at
great personal risk to protect the lives
and property of our fellow countrymen in
that city. While suppressing open riot
and anarchy ~(native children We're being
burnt alive, he caused the death of some
of the cutthroats by ordering his soldiers
to stop the tumult and for this he was
cashiered.'
The consul says that the American
population in the provinces has increased
from 1866 to $50 in one year, most of whom
are connected with the American mis-
sions. Much trouble and inconvenience
the cG~sul says, Would be saved if the var
ious mission boards supplied their mis-
sionaries with passports, especially In
Port Arthur and Russian territory.

NO PROSPECT OF A CLASH.
Compromise as to Russian Proposal Is
Probable.


Warrington, Sept. 6.-Within the
last twenty-four hours the United
States government has received from
its representatives at foreign capt.
tails much material information in re-
gard to the attitude of the powers on
the Russian proposal to evacuate Pc
king. These give the general nature
of the responses made to Russia by
certain of the powers. 1t is stated
authoritatiyely that if there was at
any time prospect of a serious in
ternational clash this has been very
largely, if not entirely, removed by
the harmonious character of the COM
munications the several governments
are making. The exact nature of the
responses is not made public by the
state department, for there are yet
some replies to be transmitted and
until all of them are in the negotia-
tons are considered in such an in
complete form that they will not be
made public. 1t is said, however, that
the answers go much beyond the ten,
tative character of those heretofore
referred to and are of conclusive
nature, so far as showing the pur-
poses of the governments, although
they may not be regarded as conclu-
sive in accepting or rejecting the par
ticular proposition advanced by Rus
STA. On the whole, the general ten
dency of the responses is such as to
give entire satisfaction here as to
the course of the negotiations.

has made the following statement:
ITO My Republican Friends: I'M
mediately sitter the appointment of
Mr.. Dolliver to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Senator Gear, / was
besieged by reporters, wanting to
know whether l would be candidate
for the office before the republican
caucus of the general assembly.
Thinking that it was possible for me
to defer a decision upon the question
until near the time of the meeting
of the Legislature, | replied, in sub
stance, that | might be a candidate,
and it is now generally believed that
L will contest Mr.. Delivers election.
my experience in the short period
since the appointment has convinced
me that it is Tot practicable to post
pone my conclusion. l am warned
by events that have already occurred
that if there is to be a contest be-
tween Mr.. Dolliver and myself, il must
begin now, indeed, that it has already
begun. Under these conditions my
utNlotoi 10 easily anu Il utSii q

that ] am not a candidate. / cannot
say this to all of you by a personal
communication, and therefore adopt
the only other means that can be
used for the purpose.
"Many things have combined to
impel me to the conclusion just an
nounced. l had hoped that follow.
ing the appointment there would be a
period of absolute peace and quiet
upon the subject, and that we might
forget, for time at least, that there
had been controversy between Sem
ator Gear and myself. The hope was
not well founded, and l am not will
ing that my ambition shall disturb
the party in the slightest degree dur
ing the important campaign now in
progress. | am told that If it is un-
derstood that ] am candidate it
will affect the vote upon the consti-
tutional amendment to be submitted
at the coming election, and / cannot
permit my senatorial aspirations to
become an obstacle in the way of a
measure so wise and salutary.
"A final reason. influential in my
determination, is that my business
imperatively demands my time and
strength, and | cannot carry on a
controversy that will consume both,
during the long interval that must
elapse between the present time and
the meeting of the general ASSEMBLY.
with unbounded gratitude for
your unwavering, uneqfaled devotion
in the long though unsuccessful fight,

DEAD MEN ARE IDENTIFIED.
Bullet Holes Through Bodies Show
They Were Murdered.

Algona, Sept. S.-The two men
whose bodies were found near the
track of the Chicago, Milwaukee &
St. Paul railroad five miles east of
Algona, after careful examination by
the coroner and jury, were found 10
have been shot, one of them through
the left lung and heart, the other
through the right lung. The men
were evidently killed, then robbed and
their bodies thrown out of freight
car in which they were riding. Their
satchels We're thrown out some dis
lance from where their bodies were
found. They had been working on a
surfacing gang west of Whitteman,
had quit work the day before, been
paid off, and it is supposed were on
their way home. All valuables upon
their persons We're taken. From let
tiers and papers found upon their per-
sons and in their satchels, their iden-
tity was discovered. One was named
Jens Gravenson. He had letter dat
ed August 30 from indianapolis, Ind,
from a brother. The other was Au-
gust Carlsquist, and formerly resided
at Boone. The jury brought in a ver-
dict that they We're murdered by par
ties unknown. Thus far no trace of
the murderers has been discovered.

that Prince Luigi and his ship reach

north than the point attained by Nan

where IL remained fast for eleven
months. Great suffering was endured
by the members of the expedition,
three of whom died. OF these one
was Norwegian and two were ltal-

HELD TO GRAND JURY.
j. w. Phillips of Eidon Charged With
Murder OF Clarence Devard.

Ottumwa, Sept. 81. w. Phillips OF
Eldon is incarcerated in the Wapello
county pail charged with the murder
of Clarence Devard of Douds Station.
and is awaiting the action of the
grand jury, which was recently dis
charged for the term, but will be re-
called. Phillips was special police
man during the Eldon Big Four fair
and attempted to place Devard, who
was intoxicated, under arrest. The
prisoner resisted, and Phillips, accord
ing to his own statement, dubbed
him. 1t was not thought at the time
that Devard was much injured, but
he died the same evening. A coro-
ner's jury recommended that Phillips
be held to the grand jury on charge
of murder
