that or nothing The Chieftain says:
1T is no longer a question OF single

statehood or none at all. Senator

POLITICAL.

A political move is hinted at in the
correspondence of the New York Post
which would enact in that State for the
benefit of the Republicans an act passed
in Michigan 12 years ago for the benefit
of the Democrats. The Democrats hav-
ing control of the Michigan Legislature
preceding the election of 1892, and
being very certain that they could not
carry the State on the Presidential
election. passed an act for the choice OF
Presidential electors by Congressional
districts. The result of this was to
divide the electoral vote of that State
between Cleveland and Harrison and to
give the former five votes that he would
not have had If the electoral ticket had
been chosen by the general vote of the
The situation in New York is akin to
that in Michigan in that the Legislature
is now strongly Republican, and good
many people think the State doubtful
on the Presidential issue. The CORE
spondent referring to this subject says
that the passage Of such an act in N Y
has been under discussion, but leaves
the impression that it is viewed un-
favorably.
There is no doubt of the constitution
atty Of such an act 1t was not only
affirmed by the Supreme Court in the
Michigan case but it Is plainly author
lied by the Constitution, and the
choice of electors by Congressional
districts was actually practiced in early
times.

Rus STA AND JAPAN.

On Satur day last Japan severed all
diplomatic relations with Russia and
the ministers of each country prepared
to leave their posts; commercial war
risks rose from 40 to 20 per cent
On Monday Japan was landing troops
in southern Corea.
Monday night at midnight, the Japa-
nese Navy struck its first blow at the
Russian navy, and it seems to have
been very surprising and staggering
one.
The Russian fleet was lying in the
outer harbor of Port Arthur 0helr
stronghold) and was not expecting an
attack; the japanese fleet approached
unobserved. and their torpedo boats
went in and exploded torpedoes against
three of the Russian ships, so disabling
them that they had to be beached. The
Russians were awakened by the explo-
sions and were completely surprised,
and though they hastily prepared for
action, they were so crippled that they
dared not go out and give battle to the
Japanese fleet, which fingered in sight,
exchanging shots with the fort till noon
next day. One of the Russian ships
that was disabled was built by the
Cramps at Philadelphia.
Besides this it was reported that the
Ian. fleet caught two Russian cruisers
in the harbor of Chemulpo and forced
them to surrender without firing gun
Part of the Russian feet is frozen up
in the harbor of Vladivostock, ard this
victory seems to make Japan master of
the Yellow and Japan seas. She has
landed large army at the seaport of
Seoul, the capital of Corea, and is tax
ing possession of that country. The
next fighting will probably be on the
land.

A Great Fire.

A hundred and forty acres of build
ings in the very heart of Baltimore
were burned from noon of Sunday last
till Monday evening. The loss in build
ings alone is estimated at one-hundred
and fifty millions; and the personal
property destroyed may double this
loss.
The fire originated in a large, six
story wholesale dry goods store, which
was soon a mass of f1ames;a strong south
breeze was blowing, and the flames
spread over the wholesale district of
the city. and then into the retail and
Office district. The local firemen were
powerless to stop it, and help was sent
from all the neighboring cities and
towns; the water supply became ex-
hausted and salt water from the bay
was used, and rows of buildings in the
pathway of the flames were blown up
with dynamite, but it was not until
Monday evening that the fire was con-
sidered under control
The Postoffice and the City Building,
which stand in squares by themselves,
were saved, but the new Custom House
was ruined.
A strange feature of so great fire
was that nobody was killed, and but
one serious accident was reported-a
York, Pa. fireman had leg broken. and
was badly burned
The fire put fifty thousand people out
of employment. and made many rich
man poor.
Baltimore is the centre of the oyster
trade Of the Chesapeake bay; and it was
also headquarters for canned goods
tomatoes, corn, etc.-and as dozen or
more of the large packing AMI storage
houses were burned. the fire will prob
ably affect the prices of such goods.
The local police, policemen from 9th
er towns, and soldiers from the forts
and Washington were put on guard
over and around the ruins.
During the past 30 years there has
gone up in flames and smoke in the
United States property valued at
%. $40, 1858, ,O66, upon which there was
an insurance of s1,977, ,24i. .52e. The
smallest fire loss in any year since 1874
was $64, 315, 900 in 1878, and the largest
was $174, 100, $50 in 1901. Last year the
estimated loss was was $135, 900, 900.
