Appropriation Of 100000 in
Sundry Civil Bill.
ADOPTED As CONFIRMING CONTRACT
Senators viii Introduce m Amendment
Taking tbs Appropriation $3oosooo'

Washington, March 28.--The sundry
civil bill reported to the house today
contains but one important item Tor
the Pacific Northwest, namely, slo0,-
900 for continuing the improvement OF
the Columbia river between The Dalles
and Cello. The fact that this appro-
priation Is carried in the sundry civil
bill establishes beyond question the fact
that congress has adopted The Dalles
project as a continuing contract, and
that necessary appropriations tor car
rying on and completing the work Will
hereafter be made annually in the sun
dry civil bill, river and harboT bill
not being depended upon.
Unfortunately, the bill makes no APP
preparation for carrying on work at the
mouth of the Columbia river but the
senators will endeavor to attach an
amendment appropriating $500, 900 for
this project 1926, 900 for the Columbia
and Willamette below Portland, an in
creasing the appropriation for The
Dalles canal to at least 5000, 900.
The sundry civil bill carries 1874, 1000
for rent of temporary quarters for the
Portland postoffice and for the courts;
500, 900 additional for the Seattle pub
lie building; 100000 to commence
construction of the public building at
Spokane, $40, 900 for the Tacoma build

CHINA KILLS 1T.
Exclusion Act wm Expire ON the 18th
Of Next December.

Washington, March 26.-The state
department has received formal notice
from the Chinese government denounc-
ing the Chinese exclusion treaty, 30 this
convention will expire about December
81 next, unless replaced by another
treaty by that date. Under its terms
six months before the expiration of a
period of ten years from December 27,
1894, if either power be dissatisfied
with the treaty, it is required to de-
nounce it. This is the action which
China has taken, in spite of the strong
est efforts to the contrary on the part
of the state department. Had the
notice not been served, the treaty would
have continued in force for another
term of ten years from December 81,
1904.
The department pointed out to the
Pekin authorities through Mr. Conger
that it was very probable that, 80 far
from lettering the conditions relating
to the admission of Chinese into the
United States, any new treaty would
all of approval by the senate. The
Chinese would thus be exposed, in the
absence of the sheltering treaty, to the
full rigor of the Geary and Heinz law,
and the exclusion would be much more
complete than at present.
However, the treaty having been de-
nounced, there is nothing to do but to
proceed with formulation of new
treaty, which has already been initial
ed in way, although with little hope
OF senatorial approval.

FLEETS TO UNITE IN FALL.


Paris, March ga Sc. Petersburg
correspondent of the Petite Parisienne
reports an interview with high officer
OF the Russian navy regarding the de-
parture of the Baltic squadron for the
Far East. The fleet OF Admiral Wire
MUS will, this officer says, be recalled
and thoroughly overhauled. He adda
that the united squadrons cannot lesye
before the end of September, whel she
sectional torpedo boats which are to be
sent to Port Arthur will be ready.
This will give the Russians decided
superiority and the war, the officer as
serts, will be brought to a speedy close.
The correspondent 3 informant declares
that the cruiser Dmitri Dorskoi, on ac-
count of its slowness, will remain at
home.
A crisis in the tea trade, adds the
correspondent, has been caused by
merchants, who announce that 10 per
cent advance in price will be made to-
day.

CHALLENGES NEUTRAL POWERS.


Nlu Chwang, March 30.--The civil
naturalization late yesterday evening
notified all the foreign consuls and resi-
dents of Viceroy Alexeiff's order plac-
ing the city and port OF Niu Chwane
under martial law, explaining that II
had been 30 ordered for the purpose OF
safeguarding the commercial interests
OF the port. Pending the publication
OF the full text of Viceroy Alexieff' 1
order the following regulations are
ordered to be Immediately operative:
First--The entire territory OF the
city and port, also all persons, with
out distinction OF jurisdiction and ma
tionality, resident In said territory.
are subjected TO special regulations re-
garding state of war.
Second--Ali travellers arriving by
sea and ell cargoes entering port are to
be inspected both by naval officers and
customs officials.
Third-The importation OF arms and
ammunition Is forbidden.
Fourth--The expectation of contra.
band of war Is forbidden.
Fiith--Persons desiring to export
contraband goods are required to de-
post sum equivalent to the value OF
the cargo. This deposit is to serve az
guarantee that the cargo is not to be
forwarded from neutral ports either to
Japan or Corea.
Sixth--The functions Of the light
ship and harbor guides in the river
Lao are suspended.
sevcnth--Contraband OF war is to
consist of such articles as are men,
toned in the decree issued by the car
February 20 defining contraband OF war.
In some quarters the order Is re-
garded as an apparent challenge to
neutral powers, especially to China, on
account OF the appropriation of her
territory, and that II renders the
United States gunboat Helena and the
British cruiser Espiegle liable to an
order TO leave port.

HAWAII IS BEST CUSTOMER.
American Trade With Noncontiguous
Territory.

Washington. March 28.-Commerce
of the United States with its noncon-
tigdous territory now averages about
So 900 900 per month, and it is appar-
ent that for the full fiscal year it will
aggregate round 800, 000,0 900. In the
term ''noncontiguous territory" are in
cluded Alaska, the Hawaiian islands,
the Philippine islands, Guam, Tutuila
and Porto Rico. Records of their ship
ments to the ports of the United States
and of shipments from the various
ports to them are now regularly pre-
sented by the department of commerce
and labor, through its bureau OF statis-
tics.
These RECORDS show that the ship
ments from the United States to Alaska,
Hawaii, Porto Rico, the Philippines,
Guam and Tutuila aggregated in the
seven months ending with January,
1904, nearly $21 100000, and the
merchandise received from them in
the same period, nearly $31 900 900.
II to this is added the gold bullion re-
ceived from Alaska, the grand total of
our commerce with the territory in
question for the seven months ending
with January would amount to nearly
$50, 900, 900, which makes it quite APP
parent that for the fiscal year ending
with June 80 next, the total will be
fully 100000, 900.
OF the shipments to these noncon-
tiugous territories, the largest total for
the seven months under consideration ia
to Hawaii, 1924, l56 worth of domes-
tic merchandise and of foreign mer-
chandise, $52, 1877.

TWO STATES ARE CREATED


Washington, March 20 The states
OF Oklahoma and Arizona are created
In bill which has been completed by
the Republican members Of the sub
committee of the house committee on
territories. The Democratic members
OF this committee have been placed in
possession Of the bill, and after they
have considered 1t for a few days a
meeting of the fall subcommittee will
be held. The two states mentioned
are composed OF Oklahoma and Indian
Territory, az "Oklahoma" and Arizona
and New Mexico as "Arizona. The
admission of the latter two territories
Ia not delayed by any restriction OF law,
but may be effected az soon az q coDven-
ton can be called to form state con-
stitution.
The bill provides, however, that
Oklahoms and the Indian Territory
shall not be admitted as state until
the year 1905. BY this time all the
Indian lands will have been allotted.
The problem Of providing proper reve-
nue. for schools, growing out of the fact
that the Indian lands Of Oklahoma and
Indian territory have been allotted in
severaity to the Indians under law
which makes them non-taxable, has
been met by an appropriation OF ST.
000,000 out OF the treasury. This
money liz to be used TO establish and
maintain schools, The principal OF
this fund may be used to the extent
necessary, the balance being placed in
deposit at 8 per cent to the credit OF the
state for the maintenance of the schools
established.
The state constitution to be formed
under the bill must contain an abund-
ant prohibition OF polygamy. Suffrage
cannot be restricted exc ept for ignor-
ance, imbecility, age and sex. This
will not permit woman suffrage IL the
constitution to be adopted shall so pro-
vide. Negro suffrage cannot be re-
stricted az such.

pected to die. Barker's store was en-
tirely demolished. Eighteen residences

San Francisco, March 20. - One
thousand tons of barley for the Japan
ese government is TO be carried by the
steamer Coptic, sailing ON April 2, for
the Asiatic coast. This is part of a
large shipment ordered some months
ago before hostilities began with Rus
STA. Several hundred tons OF the bar
ley were sent out on the Siberia, but
the bulk OF it is to go ON the Coptic,
and the disability of most OF the Rus
sian warships on the coast of Asia
makes II almost certain that the grain
will reach Yokohama in safety.

coSsuLs WITH NO JURISDICTION.


Niu Chwang. March so.--The for
eign conauls had a conference with the
civil administrator today. The latter
informed them that the full intention
Of Russia's order Of yesterday was to
proclaim martial law and also annul
consular jurisdiction and that the same
WAS already annulied.
The British consul interpreted the or
der as not declaring martial law. The
other consuls were unable yesterday to
comprehend Rusaia's intentions.
The administrator agrees with the
consuls to suspend rigid enforcement
OF said order until the foreign govern
ments act in order to lessen the COM
piications.
The Americans here call attention 10
the apparent defeat of American aims
regarding placing consuls in Manchuria
by the execution OF Russia's order.
American and British flags were to-
day removed by the Russian military
from the property of citizens OF Ameri-
can or British nationality.

HEADQUARTERS AT PANAMA.
Canal Commission Settles Two Import
ant Poirts.

Washington, March 26.-Two i'm
portant points have been developed in
connection with the work of the 18TH
milan canal commission. One is that
the headquarters of the commission
probably will be on the Isthmus of
Panama instead of at Washington.
although an Office will probably be
maintained here. The other point is
that part of the time Of at least five
OF the commissioners will be devoted to
their private interests.
Admiral Walker, the chairman of
the commission, and General Davis, the
army member of the body, will devote
their entire time to the canal work.
Legislation now pending before con-
gress provides for the appointment of a
governor of the American zone on the
isthmus. If 1t should be enacted into
law, 1T is quite probable that the presi-
dent may designate General Davis as
the governor of the canal strip.

Vladivostok, March 29.-Supplies of
provisions on hand assure the sale of
food at peace prices during the sum-
mer, even though the operations of the
japanese and the overlooking of the
rivers may cause difficulty In transpor

price OF few articles. The Coreans
laid up store of cabbages, onions and
cucumbefs for the winter, but these
were not used and are now sold cheap.
The attempts of minor dealers to raise
