TRADE IN JAPAN.
United States Minister Buck Sends
 a Report.

Washington, Oct. 6.-United States Min ister Buck at Tokio has transmitted to the State Department 8 long report upon the trade conditions in Japan in which he says that the foreign trade in Japan for the year 1901 was marked by many unfavorable features but there was at the same time a distinct recovery from the evil conditions from which 1t suffered during the previous year.
 Mir Buck says that no little apprehen- sion was excited at the beginning of the year 1901 by the fact that the foreign trade of Japan in the previous year had resulted in a balance unfavorable to the country of $41,122.OOO and an outflow of specie amounting to $22. 4S5,OOO. The exist ing conditions he ascribes to excessive government expenditures. Bankruptcies and failures to meet engagements were numerous among the smaller merchants but the more important mercantile and financial houses of Japan passed success fully through the ordeal with one or two exceptions.
 According to the Minister. United States imports into Japan were smaller in 1901 than in 1900 owing to the decline in quantity of raw cotton material.

MEXICAN PAPER ALARMED.
Fl Economista Says Government Has
 Checkmated Railroads-

Mexico City. Oct. 6.-El Economista a Mexicana. the leading weekly of the finan- cial world, which reflects official views to some extent, has a remarkable article on the recent purchase by the government Of the controlling interest in the inter- Oceanic Railway between this city and the port of Vera Cruz El Ecohomista traces the growing power of great railway companies here, increas- ing continually by consultations and pur- chases of connecting lines and declares that the Mexican Central Railway with It's new acquisitions is at the head of one group. while the National Railroad, whose gauge is being widened belongs to another First Is the Rockefeller group; second is the Speyer group. The Speyer group is said to have been contemplating buying the control of the nter-Oceanic Railway which would have made the Mexican Nathional Railway very powerful in rail- way affairs here. and the government de- termined to checkmate the great Ameri- can railway consolidators by buying the into-Oceanic for itself and so preventing ing the approach of monopoly. which it claims to have foreseen in transportation.
 ''1t might" says Fl Economista have been superficially judged that with the Mexican Central group on one side and the Speyer group on the other there could be no peril from lack of competition in railway rates.( but recent American his- tory shows that great rivals often com bine interest and make the public defence less.'
 The paper continues:
 Great corporations operating here, 1t is said, are agitating the adoption of the gold standard and there Is danger that the railways, which by no means have put up their rates to the maximum permitted by their charters, may raise rates and so the public would have to suffer. The hallway companies have to meet gold interest abroad and they require more money in proportion as silver depreciates. The government made a wise and sagacious move in taking over the inter-oceanic Railway and so established hearty con- trol of the railway situation in favor Of +ba general public. This course is but following the policy of the government in the matter of the grain monopoly which the government broke down.

STRIKE CLAUSE IN LEASES.
Episcopal Clergymen Endorse Action
 of President.

New York, Oct 6-John B. Kerr. gen. eral counsel for the New York. Ontario and Western Railroad. speaking of the report from Boston that certain New England owners of coal mining properties in the anthracite fields in Pennsylvania that are held under lease by the opera tors, are talking of beginning suit to break the leases because their royalties have stopped since the strike began. had this to say of the matter:
 'In the first place there are very few New England owners of coal lands in Pennsylvania. Then, all the leases, so far as I know, contain strike clauses. They provide that in case of a strike when the lessee is willing to pay the pre- vailing wages to his employees, he is ex- cused from the payment of royalties du- ring the strike.
 ".The leases also provide that the les sees are excused from paying the royal ties in case of an accident at a mine that prevents the mining of coal, or in case trouble on the railroads makes 1t impos- sible to transport the coal.
 "In other words. all the leases I know anything about place the lessee in the position in which the owner would be placed if he were operating the mines. If an operator attempts to cut the wages of his men to less than the prevailing wages and they strike. he is not excused by the strike clause. But in the pres ent instance, the operators are willing to pay the prevailing wages and are ex- cused from the payment of royalties"
 The Churchmen's Association. which includes more than 100 of the representa- tive Protestant Episcopal clergymen of the diocese of New York, today passed thesee resolutions:
 "Whereas. The present coal famine is the cause of widespread distress and great industrial disturbance. involving possible consequence of unprecedented gravity. and.
 Whereas. The public deprivation of a necessity of life raises an issue which is above the merits of any private quarrel. therefore, be it.
 Resolved. That we recognize with gratitude and appreciation the patriotic action of the President of the United States in his endeavors to conciliate the interests. and further be it,
 Resolved. That we pledge to the Pres- ident our heartiest moral support in his further efforts to secure justice for the public"

MUST RUN ITS CARS
NEW ORLEANS MAYOR SENDS
 ULTIMATUM TO COMPANY.
Unless Railway Company Begins Operation. This Morning Action Will Be Taken to Revoke
 Franchises-Wire Cutting.

New Orleans, Oct. 6.-Tonight at 6 o'clock Mayor Capdevielle sent the fol- lowing letter to the New Orleans Rail- ways Company:
 Referring to my letter of this date suspending until further notice the de- mand made upon you in my letter of the 9th instant to run cars on all lines own- ed or operated by your company accord ing to the franchises covering said lines. | beg to respectful say that you must run the cars of your company in con- formity with your contracts, at and af- ter o'clock on Tuesday morning, Octo- Der 2. 1902
 Paul Capdevielle, Mayor"
 At ? o'clock this morning the Mayor rnscinded his previous order to the com- pany for the reason that he saw a settle ment of the car strike in sight.
 Today negotiations opened on new tack A new subcommittee of the union met the officials of the Railways Company and both sides practically agreed OH a proposition for the men to return to work at 20 cents an hour and ten hours a day. The company insisted upon the proposition coming up to, 1t in an official form from the union and to be presented through the Mayor by o'clock tonight.
 The union considered the proposition and rejected 1t and further. the Press Committee issued statement that the subcommittee was not authorized to act for them. The Mayor waited until o'clock for the reply of the union and not receiving any sent the letter to the company to run its cars.
 The Mayor was asked what would be the outcome if the company failed to run its cars. He replied that it would then be up to the City Council to consider whether 1t had forfeited Its franchises.
 In the meantime preparations are go- ing forward to place the police in a posi- ton to protect the barns from which the cars will be run. The first attempt will be made from the Canal Street barn and seventy policemen will be stationed there tomorrow morning. Cars will also be operated from the Prytania and Arabeila barns.
 Late this afternoon the attorneys for the company had the suit for a>receiver filed in the civil court Friday transferred to the United States Court on the ground that the Railways Company Is foreign corporation, incorporated uAder the laws of New Jersey. As neither of the Fed eral Judges are in the city now that de- fers action on the suit until the Novem- Der term of court.
 Wire cutting was reported from sev- eral points today and several people saw two men cutting telephone wires but they got away before the police reached the scene.

carried a message from the Chis xecu- tive to MT. Mitchell. A rumor can not be verified is in circulation. gre to- night that President Roosevelt has ap- pealed to MT. Mitchell to end the strike in the cause of humanity. There Is no one here in MT.

 Interest in MT. Mltchelrs mysterious trip was intense all day and evening about headquarters. All the local dis trict leaders called and scores of mine workers were in evidence. All were of the belief that some sort of a move Is contemplat d. Immediately on the re- turn of the strike leader tonight he was besieged, but he refused to see any one until after he had his supper. He grant ed the newspaper correspondents a brief interview, simply telling them he met MT. Wright and then he and the district presidents vent into conference.

MILITARY MANOUVRES
ARMY EXERCISES AT FORT
 RILEY WERE SPECTACULAR.
Critics Admired Greatly Skill Dis played by Major Leach and General Kobbe in Game of
 Mimic Warfare.

Fort Riley, Kas., Oct 6.-While fully as practical as any of the preceding ma- neuvres, today's United States army ex,. ercises contained a larger element of the spectacular than any that have pre- ceded them and it Is not likely that any of those still to come will equal the work of today.
 Major Leach of the engineers, com manding the Blues defended a position with what all the military critics con- cede was very great skill General Kobbe. leading the Browns. m9ie dispositions for attack that were praised fully as highly as Major Leach's defensive po- sition. Moreover General Kobbe pushed home his attack with a fierceness and energy that had the combat occurred .n actual warfare, must have caused heavy losses to both sides. At the close of the fighting General Kobbe had been badly crippled. but he was coming on to make a final rush for the trenches. His men were dashing down a slope fully exposed to the rife fire from entrenched line and after defending this and passing through a ravine, his men had still 300 yard sof open ground to cross before reaching the entrenchments.
 The critics say that this was hardly possible. Still, General Kobbe had two luil iAidSihdAy IcSiIiicHtS III TcsSTVe, anu even though repulsed the first time his game was far from being played to the finish.
 The force under Major Leach consisted of the 9th Infantry, the first battalion of engineers, acting as infantry, Troop A of the Sth Cavalry and the 9th and 18th Bat teries of field artillery.
 The force under General Kobbe, which made up the Browns. comprised the 18th Infantry, the 22nd Infantry. Colorado bat talion of the 1st and End Squadrons 4th Cavalry, Troops B. c and D of the sth cavalry and the 17th, 18th and 10th Bat teries of field artillery. His object was to seize the supplies at Fort Riley and disable the Union Pacific for several days. The Kansas troops were originally included in General Kobbe's command but did not take part in the maneuvres, as they left for home during the day General Kobbe's force was therefore as- sumed to be stronger by two full regi- ments than was actually the case. As was anticipated. the problem proved to be the most interesting of the series thus fa-.
