CHINA DOUBTS THE STORY
Receives skepticaIIy RumOr of RUS
sia's Plan to Obtain Port
in Korea.

PEKIN, Feb. 24-The news from Japan
ese sources that Russia is trying to obtain
a port In Korea has been received with a
great deal Of interest, but skeptically, be-
cause, II true, 1t might test the efficacy Of
the Anglo-Japanese alliance as a barrier
to Russian expansion.
Favorable effects of the alliance, in CIV
ing confidence and stability to business
ventures in northern China, are already
noticeable.
The court continues to manifest a friendly
disposition toward foreigners and foreign
enterprises. One Of the practical evidences
Of this spirit Is the permission accorded to
the Tien -Pao-Tingfu railroad to es-
tabIish stations at the Chen gate, close
to the Chinese city. Still the Chinese re-
formers declare their disbelief in the per-
manency Of the reforms. They point out
that the chief eunueh. who is hopelessly
corrupt is still the dowager empress most
influential adviser. and also insist that many
punishments demanded in the protocol,
which the authorities declare they have
carried out, have not been inflicted, but
that the officials, instead OF being beheaded.
have been transferred to more desirable
posts in distant parts OF the empire.

BLOW UP ASSAY OFFICES
Concerted Move Against Leading
Firms in Cripple Creek
District.

VICTOR, Colo, Feb. 24.-Cripple Creek
is in a state Of terror, owing to a pre-
concerted attack upon assay offices
doing business in the district Be-
ginning at 3 o'clock this morning and fol-
lowing in rapid succession six explosions
wrecked as many assay Offices in the CEN
ters, ranging from Victor to Cripple Creek
and up to Goldheld. In every
instance the object sought by the in
cendiarles was accomplished by the de-
struction of the Offices with their fine
equipment Of delicate balances. The raid
ers did not hesitate to jeopardize life, as
all but one Of the buildings were also occu-
pied by sleeping families. AS it was, men,
women and children were hurled out of
their beds by the shocks and serious in
juries inflicted. The full extent of the
damage cannot be estimated.
In this city the Davenport Office was
wrecked by two explosions, involving loss
of at least 81, 200. At almost the same time
the assay offices of Vanderwalker, Morgan
and Williams were treated likewise. The
loss was approximately as large as at
Davenport's. One man, miner veS
severely injured in the explosion at Will
liams' Office. He was passing at the mo-
ment OF the explosion. Flying debris
and may result in total blindness.
Benjamin's assay once. north Of the
Florence & Cripple Creek depot, was
blown up.
In the town of Goldheld, about a mile
and a half north OF here, almost stimuli
taneously Boyce's once and another assay
establishment were wrecked. Boyce's
family occupied an adjoining building
Mrs Boyce was blown out OF bed, but
escaped without fatal injuries. She was
badly shocked. family living in the
other assay office was also blown out oi
bed, but escaped serious injury. The giant
powder was blown through the windows al
Goldheld.
In this city the powder was blown under
the building.
A house in which a family lived, next t
Williams assay once here. was much dam
aged and a woman prostrated. Sheriff
Robertson has called out his deputies and
is taking all means to discover, l. pos
sible, the perpetrators OF the crimes.
The general impression here this morn
ing is that the acts are the result OF I
general movement to rid the district of al
high grade ore purchasing institutions.
Bloodhounds from Canon City have beer
ealled for.
For years there has been systemat
stealing Of rich ere from the mines
amounting to thousands OF dollars monthly
1t is alleged that more than fifty assayer
in the district have made a business Of buy
ing such ore. Recently the mine owners
association discovered that shipments o
high grade ore had been made by assaysr
from this district TO a smelter at San Fran
cisco and a smelter at Salt Lake City, bu
all efforts TO stop the trafne were unaVAil
