CONTINUES TARIFF WAR.
russia Makes q New Move in the Dis
criminatOry Duties Imposed
by United States.

Washington, June 19.-The Russian
ambassador, Count Cassini, has COM
municated to the state department
that in consequence of the action of
the American government through a
treasury order of March last, apply
ing tariff restrictions against Russian
petroleum, imported into this country,
the Russian minister of finance, M.
Dewitte, has issued an order dated
June z, instant, imposing the high tar
if rate of the Russian schedule on
American white resin or calafn, gala
pot, white resin, under article 80 of
the Russian tariff law, and increasing.
the rate on American bicycles under
article 173 of the Russian laws.
This action is entirely apart from
that taken in connection with Russian
sugar and is new development in the
discriminatory duties imposed by this
government and the retaliatory duties
imposed by Russia. The order'of the
Russian minister is to take effect next
Friday, or two weeks from the date of
it's issuance.

KEEP CHINESE TROOPS OUT.
Foreign Ministers at Picking Refuse
to Grant Permission for Return
of 5000 Soldiers.

Picking, June 19.-fhe foreign min
listers have declined to assent to the
request to allow 5000 Chinese soldiers
to come to Peking now. They con-
slider that it would be inadvisable to
permit such step to be taken be-
fore the latter part of August, by
which time, the international troops,
with the exception of the legation
guards, will have left the city.
The ministers also declined to per-
NIT the international troops to guard
the forbidden city until the Chinese
soldiers shall arrive.
Berlin, June eat is officially ad-
mitted that Germany desires to in
crease her claim of indemnity against
China from s12,OOO,OOO to e14,oo0,OOO
because the first figure does not in
clude expenses borne by Germany in
China from May to July. This demand
about TALES with Germany's actual
outlay during the two months in ques-
ton. 1t is understood here that Great
Britain backs up Germany in this in
creased claim.

the japanese legation ,

when informed of the ASA ssination
of Hoshi Toru. His service here as
minister lasted from 1896 to 1898. He
is we'll known both in diplomatic and
official circles. Before coming here
he was prominent in the politics of his
country and on returning to Japan he
became a member of the cabinet, serv-
ing as minister of communication.
His official life in Washington and at
home were marked by vigor and de-
cisiveness, and these characteristics
brought him much enmity in certain
political circles of Japan. This re-
suited in charges affecting his integ-
rity as a member of the cabinet, and
rather than compromise his associates
by the controversy he rendered his
resignation and began libel suits
against his detractors. Feeling ran
high over the affair and it is probably
due to this that the fatality occurred.
Mr.. Hoshi leaves a wife and one son,
the latter nine years old. He was 4S
years of age, and beside his promi-
hence in politics was student and a
man of literary accomplishments.
