RIJSSIA'S GAME IN CHINA
AGITATING THE POWERS.

1t appears now that there is another
crisis whose black cloud carries me-
mace to the peace and safety of the
great powers in relation to China The
Herald has heretofore pointed out how
Russia is playing a master hand in the
yellow empire. and while appearing to
acauiesce in the arrangements set by
the powers, and while apparently de-
string peace. still she is handling her
cards in a way to baffle the learned
diplomats of every nation, except, per-
chance, China herself.
There have been late developments.
A very few days ago the word came
over the wire that Ambassador Choate
and Lord Landsdowne, foreign secre-
tary, mad been in secret conference over
the Nicaragua canal. The information
was accepted as true, and the CORE
spondents even went so far as to pre-
dict that England would endeavor to
revive the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. But
it now appears that instead of Mica
raguan affairs, the conference had 10
do with China 1t is said that the con-
dition of affairs there is more grave
than it has been since the original in
PREVENTION. If not indeed more grave
than the former crisis.
Almost simultaneously, Great Brit-
ain and the United States had taken ac-
ton with a view to preventing the ac-
QUESTION by Russia of the rich province
of Manchuria- The two governments
took this action without previously
consulting each other, and it was only
after Ambassador Choate had been to
see the foreign secretary at the latter's
request that directions came from
Washington for him to take the very
action that had already been taken. II
appears that the two governments are
fully in accord on this most vital
question
By direction of Secretary Hay all the
ambassadors and ministers were di-
Iected to ascertain the probable course
of the various governments in the
event that Russia persists in her atti-
tude of defiance. While none of the
other nations have as yet been heard
from. there is reason to believe that
Japan will side with us, and possibly
Germany, while France will stand with
Russia. The British officials consider
that Russia's recession from the posi-
ton she has assumed is vitality neces-
sary if the concert OF the powers is to
be kept in tune, and if the partition
Of China is to be averted
Under the guise of temporary occu-
patton Russia has secured a firm foot

There is a fugitive dispatch going
the rounds of the papers, dated simply
Eureka AS there are seventeen
Eurekas in as many different states, it
is impossible to locate the scene of
the event described. But that is i'm
material. The interesting part of the
item is the statement that the mayor
of the town, Irwin II. Spiggs, has re-
signed his Office to accept the more lu-
crative position of dealer of the faro
bank in the White Elephant saloon.
There is no ordinance to prevent the
mayor filling both positions. But
Spiggs thought that the faro job would
take too much of his time. so he hon.
orably stepped out of the high Office
of mayor, to which no salary attaches.
and accepted the dealers job at the ur
gent request of his friends.

POOR OUTLOOK FOR HIGH
WATER IN RIVER THIS YEAR.
The Snow Fall in Colorado On the Rio
Grande Watershed Has Been Below
Normal.

The following is taken from a bulle-
tin just received from the Colorado sec
ton of the weather service, through
the Ell Paso local observer. 1t will be
of interest to every person who depends
on the river flow for irrigation pur-
poses:
Although snow fell on a great many
days the amounts were generally small
and, for the mountain region as a
whole. the precipitation during Feb
ruary was much below normal. In the
northern part of the state high winds
during the last decade drifted the snow
from above timber line and other ex-
posed localities into the gulches and
timber-places favorable to conserving
the moisture for time at least-but in
southern districts warm winds caused
considerable melting and evaporation.
In the valleys and parks of moderate
elevation the snow was moist and
much melted as fast as it fell, and in
localities rain fell-an unusual occur
renee in February even on the plains.
Southern slopes are now bare, and high
temperatures have caused melting in
the shade almost to timber line. AS
compared with year ago the stock of
snow is less on all the watersheds. the
deficiency being marked on that of the
Arkansas. especially on the drainage
area of its southern tributaries. The
deficiency is also very marked near
the headwaters of the White and the
Yampa. AS rule. the snow is not we'll
packed and will disappear early in the
season; leaving the midsummer flow
to be supplied almost exclusively by
rains.
Rio Grande Watershed: Wagon
Wheel Gap-Loosely packed; flow will
be about same as last year. Thorn
ton-More on southern watershed than
a year ago. Creede-Most of the old
snow has disappeared. Alder-Loosely
packed and is going fast. Bonanza
Melting fast; water supply will be
short. Mirage-None above timber
line except in gulches. Osier-Old
snow is solid; one-fourth more than
a year ago. Russell-Well packed and
more than usual.

German commercial interests in Cen
trail America are rapidly increasing.
1t is stated by a we'll informed official
that there is S6O.OOO,OOO of German
capital invested in Central America,
and German plantations occupy nearly
$50 900 acres. The German business
houses of Nicaragua. Guatemala, and
Costa Rica transact nearly all the for
eign trade of those countries, not only
with Germany but with England and
California. The trade between Ger
many and Central America amounts to
from seven to twelve million dollars
annually. Most of the shipping is in
the hands OF Germans, and most of
the staple crops are handled by the
subjects of the kaiser. United States
consul Diedrich. at Bremen, who gives
these particulars, warns the United
States against this growing German
activity in the markets of the world.
He refers to the thoroughness of Ger
man commercial organization. and to
the wonderful capacity of that people
to adapt itself to new conditions and
take advantage of wider knowledge. In
the race for commercial supremacy
the reorganization of the German con-
sular service in Central America, which
is now under way, is step of consid-
cradle significance.
