CONFLICTING REPORTS.



LONDON. Oct. 1.-THE correspondent of
the Morning Post at Che-Foo, telegraphing
Oct. 10, says: 1T is stated that the Japanese
have decided to declare hostilities to-mor-
row on the expiration of their ultimatum to
Russia. The Russian feet has cleared from
Port Arthur. 1t is reported that the Japa-
nese are landing troops at Masanpho. Korea.
There are strong indications that Ger
many favors hostilities, on the ground that
it would enable her to extend her sphere OF
influence in China.
"a number of field guns were embarked
at Port Arthur yesterday for an unknown
destination. All the available force of work.
men is employed on the Notifications.
THE cholera and the plague have broken
out among the Russians a New Chwang."
Another dispatch TO the Morning Post from
Che-Foo, dated Oct. IL, $50 p. M, says:
1.-The situation is unchanged. All is quiet
at Port Arthur. Hostilities are still believed
to be imminent. 1t is asserted that the
Russians have fixed Friday next for their
commencement. There is an exodus of
Chinese merchants from the Yal valley
They are arriving at Che-FoO"
The Daily Mails correspondent at Shang-
hal telegraphs: Careful inquiries show that
the only japanese troops at Ma-San-Pho are
on the small territory conceded to Japan in
connection with railway building and their
presence is therefore in accordance with
treaty rights.
A Singapore dispatch to the Daily Mail
says that the British admirals of the China
Australian and East Indian squadrons have
arrived at that port and will confer aboard
his majestys steamship Glory tomorrow to
discuss the questions of naval concentration
and strategy in the far East"
The Toxic correspondent of the Times
telegraphs that the statement that Russia
has proposed the partition of Corea is un-
founded. 1t is generally asserted, but not
yet officially confirmed, that Japan has OBJ
tanned the concession for the Seoule-
Kaiseng section of the Seoul-Wiju Railway
and also for the Masan-Pho branch.

Indiana Rival To Langley.
Stone City News.

Charles Scroghan, who lives three miles
south OF Nashville, Brown county, made an
unsuccessful attempt to fly over Nashville
Saturday night with flying machine built
after his own ideas. Scroghan is thirty
seven years old, and since boyhood has been
a flyer of kites and balloons. Two years ago
he began making a machine with which he
hoped to fly, the continuance to be strapped
about his body. He worked patiently during
the two years, and several times thought
he had successfully solved the problem of
flying through the air, but his attempts
were failures. He did not give up, but con-
tinued making Improvements and two
weeks ago climbed upon the house where he
lives and jumped off. He came slowly to
the ground. The effort fired him with hope.
and he went to Nashville and spread the
word that he was going to start from Weed
Patch hill last Saturday night and fly over
the town. He said he would start at dark
and carry lantern. He said he thought
he would tell the people about it, so they
would know what was going over the town
and would not shoot at him. He made the
attempt from a high cliff. After he Jumped
he was found far below with a broken arm
and other injuries, while the flying machine
was a wreck. The machine had two large
wings, made to fasten To his arms. Scrog-
han will make changes in his machine as
soon as he is able to work on it.

WAR is POSSIBLE.
Both Japan and Russia Acting as il
They Might Fight.

BERLIN, Oct. 11.--Russia and Japan act
as though either would fight if the other
should hold immovably to the position
taken up in the last exchange of COM
munications. This is the actual situation
as understood officially from reports re-
ceived from the German embassy in St.
Petersburg and the German legation at
Toxic. Yet this mutual attitude with hos
tile preparations by both countries is still,
regarded here as not excluding an honor
able arrangement. Neither government has
gone so far that 1T must fight or be HUI
INFLATED, but either Cabinet by a single
step can put the other in that position.
This delicate balance may, of course be
violently disturbed any day, though no
ultimatum has yet been thrown on either
scale.
1t is believed here officially that war,
should it occur, would be between Russia
and Japan alone, and that neither Eng
land nor France would be involved. Fred
erick the Greats remark was quoted as
illustrating the present posture of affairs
negotiations without weapons behind you
are like musical tone without instru-
mentS."

NJ. Lessar. Russian minister to China, has

The Manchurian convention between Rus
STA and China was signed April s, 1902, and
according to it the evacuation of the three
Manchurian provinces was to be carried out
I'm three successive periods of six months
from the signing of the convention. A note
from NJ. Lessar was appended to the con-
vention declaring that IF the Chinese gov
eminent, Notwithstanding the assurances
given by it. violates any provision of the
convention, the Russian government will
not hold itself bound either by the terms OF
the Manchurian agreement or by the decla-
rations previously made in connection with
the matter and will be compelled to repu-
date any responsibility and consequences
that might result therefrom."
China was to be permitted to maintain
whatever force she thought necessary In
Manchauria after the evacuation of that
territory. Russia also agreed IL Tien-Tsin
was restored to the Chinese within the
first six months to evacuate New-Chwang
at the time this restoration was made. The
allies turned over Ten-Tsin to the Chinese
Aug. 10 last year. The convention was to
have been ratified within three months, but
this was not done. Last month Nj. Lessar,
in his note to the Chinese foreign board,
promised to begin the evacuation of Man
churia Oct. 8, provided China accepted sew
eral conditions, which China has refused to
do, under pressure principally from Japan
and Great Britain.

DELEGATE SCORES
 BARD

A small but enthusiastic auuience at tended the Iroquois club meeting in Los Angeles last Thursday evening and heard J. F. Wilson, congressional dele gste-elect for the territory Of Arizona, who made brief spesch on statehood. He said in part:
 T have been invited to address the Ir0quois club on the question of the ad- mission of ArizOua to statehood Il the first ace let me say that l have no personal feeling against any Of those who opposed the admission of my ter ritOry. If they opposed the proposition it Ta> through ignorance of the Ques- tion involved.
 "The earliest political question that ever stirred this country was the ques- Iion of representation. The grestest was on the admission of the norr Invest territories in l7S7. At that time the two qnesion were involved and the territories we, admitted on the basis of there population, or in other word $ their representation. At that time it was set down as a precedent that when any territory gained a population Of 50, 900 that territory should become a state. This rule applied to the north . west territories.
 "The question of admission was al ways based absolutely on representa- tion The constitution gave us our rights, precedent. established them. We demand admission under the rule of re. presentation.
 And yet Senator B .rd, evadine this question, arose in the senate and said that the industries of our territory were depleted, our mines worked out. our resources exhausted. Now 1 really beli. ve that Senator Bard never set foot in Arizona. At auy rate ke did not know whereof he spoke. We pro- duce annually from the ground alone S43, ,000s000, that the senator evidently forgo; all bout.
 With a population of 123,00o we have an annual mineral output a one of s43, ,000.O00.
 Bard said we are Moi monized. We are proud to own some Mormons, for they are American citizens. They obey the law, they speak the truth, iey are industrious and peaceful. What better cap be asked of an American yoter:"
 The speaker closed with some Straight blows at certain newspapers. 'which,n he said, opposed the ad- Yapcemehl of another community like itue dog in the manager. who neither wanted the hay himself nor would per nit the OK to ha7ei:."
 The club received the r'marks en- thusiastieally and will endeavor to SC cure another talk from Mir. Wilson when more publicity can be given the meeting.
