an ardent Republican Mr. Scherr ad-

JAPAN'S VAR FEVER.
Another Indication That She is Pre-
pairing for Emergencies.

London, May lit is reported that
the Japanese government has reserved
a subsidized mail steamer for it's own
use," says the Shanghai correspondent
of the Morning Post. This suggests
that Japan is preparing for emergen-
cies.
'The desperate state of the private
finances Of Japan is said to be making
the war propaganda popular. Accord
ing to opinion in Shanghai, an outbreak
of hostilities would be the signal for a
rising throughout China"
Everywhere among the Chinese there
is a feeling of unrest says a dispatch
to the Standard from Tien Tsin.
'There is no doubt that petty attacks
on foreigners continue; and the state
ment is correct that bodies of we'll
armed Chinese are secretly drilling.
Chinese picked troops are reported in
strength in the vicinity of Pao Ting
Flu. The situation demands the reten-
tion of the foreign troops for the pres
ent."

Hare is fastening to his home at Sher-

The general left the Philippines on
March 4, coming home by way Of China,
Japan and the Suez canal. He said
that during the few days that he re-
mained at Nagasaki he saw nothing of
the preparations that the Japanese were
reported to be making for possible
conflict with Russia. "The Japanese
are a very secretive people" said Cen
eral Hare, land all their military and
naval moves are made under cover.
Their shore Notifications are all masked
and, as they are patriotic people, out
siders cannot learn what is being done
by the government. The japanese as
are a brave and fine lot Of
men,"

New York, April 30.-The Herald will
say tomorrow: At meeting held in
this city yesterday (Tuesday) an agree
ment was reached which will bring un-
der one management Ave Of the great
est shipbuilding concerns in this coun-

than any other in the world which will
take in any ship now anoat or under
construction.
Capital sufficient for the enterprise Is
already assured. In order that outside
influence may not obtain control 1t has
been provided that no bonds shall be
issued. Capital stock amounting to
$40, ,Oo0 will be issued and syndicate

the entire amount.

Evidence Swings Slightly Over to tho
Governments Side.

Cambridge, Mass, April 30.--The pen
dulum Of evidence in the Eastman mur-
der trial to-day swung slightly over to
the governments side of the case
through a favorable decision in the
morning and some expert testimony late
in the afternoon tending to show that
the bullet taken from Grogan's, body
came from the CENTER fire revolver, al
though Eastman in his many state
ments said that the accident took place
while he had an old rim-fire revolver in
his hand
Members of Grogan's family testified
that Eastman had said that he was not
on good terms with Grogan. The ex-
pert testimony offered on the compost
tion of the rim-fre and center-fire car
tridges was of interest, as Professor
Wood found tin in the fragment of the
bullet taken from Grogans body which
corresponded with the composition of
the center-fire bullet, while the rim-fire
bullet was of pure led.
