JAPAN WANTS EARLY REPLY.
Russian Minister Given to Understand
Delay Is Too Great.

Toxic, Jan. 2S.-The Japanese gov
ernment has diplomatically intimated
to Baron De Rosen, the Russian minis
ter, that an early response is desired to
Japan's recent note to Russia. It is
calculated here that the Japanese note
reached the Russian cabinet on the af-
ternoon of January Is, and it is felt
that sufficient time has elapsed for its
consideration and the preparation of a
response. The Japanese government is
conscious of the possible necessities of
the military and naval situation, and
is unwilling to permit evasions and de-
lays which are designed to gain time.
The future course of the Japanese
government is a carefully guarded Sc
cret. The length of time that Japan
is prepared to await the pleasure of
Russia is unknown. 1t seems probable
that it has been determined to act de-
cisively within few days. The popu-
lar temper has long opposed further
delay.
While many objected to Japan taking
the initiative, majority would now
welcome the issuance of brief ulti-
matum and declaration of war if
that should prove Ineffective. Some
outside opinion here inclines to the be-
lief that the activities of Japan will be
limited to the seizure of Corea, which
enterprise, it is thought, Russia would
not oppose.

HEPBURN URGES LAND REFoRM.
Idaho Senator Makes His Maiden Speec
Stone Talks of Panama.

|
Washington, Jan 2S.-The time OF
the senate today was again divided be-
tween consideration of the Panama
question and other subjects. There
was only one speech on the canal, and
it was made by Stone, of Missouri, who
spoke to resolution directing the SEN
ate committee on foreign relations to
make an investigation into the Panama
revolt. He contended the circum-
stances indicated completely on the part
of the United States in the secession of
Panama, and urged that in the interest
of the country's good name, all the
facts should be known.
Hepburn, of Idaho, made his first
speech in the senate in support of a
resolution introduced by himself pro-
hibiting railroad companies from tax
ing up land in solid body in lieu of
land in forest reservations.
A number of bills were passed in
cluding one for a memorial bridge
across the Potomac river at Washing
toy.
When the senate convened, Hepburn
made an address on his resolution di-
recting stay of proceedings on applica-
tions to patent even numbered sections
Of public lands in lieu of odd numbered
sections, held by railroad companies in
forest reserves. He complained that
The present law permits railroads to |
worthless lands, and take up |
'ther territory of much greater value.
The resolution was referred to the COM
nittee on public lands.

MOI THAT KIND OF POWER.
corea Joining With Japan Would Not
Drag France In.

Paris, Jan. 27.-The attitude of
Corea in the event of war between
Russia and japan has been the subject
of much comment among the diplo-
mats here, as it is believed Corea's Civ
ing aid to Japan might constitute two
powers attacking Russia, thus bringing
in France. under the terms of the
Eanco Russian cement One Of
the ambassadors, therefore, asked For
eign Minister Delcasse what the result
would be if Corea joined Japan and the
answer is in substance that Corea is
not considered to be that kind of sov-
ereign independent power, whose assist
ance to Japan against Russia would
bring about the contingency contemp-
lated by the Franco-Russian agree
ment. Although the answer was con-
fined to Corea, it is understood that a
similar view prevails, thereby confirm
ing previous reports on the same SUBJ
ject that China's joining Japan would
not constitute two powers attacking
Russia.

FIRE DESTROYS NORWAY TOWN.
Inhabitants Become Panicstricken and
Lose All Their Property.

Inhabitants Become Panicstricken and
Lose All Their Property.
Aalesund, Norway, Jan. 27.-The
fire which swept over this town yester-
day morning destroyed. every building
in it with the exception of the hospital.
The 200 inhabitants of Aalesund
we're compelled to camp in the open, as
only a few damaged and uninhabitable
houses were left standing. The chill
dren of the town had to be housed tenn
porarily in the church at Borgund.
The panic among the people was so
great after the outbreak of the flames
that all attempts at leadership or dis
cipline became out of the question; no
excesses, however, were committed.
The people first endeavored to save
some of their property, but they soon
found they had quite enough to do to
save their own lives.
The destruction of the town was COM
plete within couple of hours from the
time the fire started. Over 20 steam
fishing boats and many sailing smacks
were sunk in the harbor in order to
save them from the flames, but three
steamers and many smacks were burn
ed. 1t is believed now that only three
persons lost their lives.

TIRED OF GETTING LETTERS.
The Sultan of Morocco Finally Gives
$4,000 to the St. Louis Fair.

| The Sultan of Morocco Finally Gives
$4,000 to the St. Louis Fair.
St. Louis, Jan. 28.-In the list of
nations which are to be represented at
the worlds fair by national pavilions,
Morocco probably will be missing.
Secretary Stevens states that it is not
now expected that Morocco will official
ly participate by erecting pavilion,
but that some use, doubtless, will be
made of the $50, 900 appropriated.
According to information received by
the exposition officials from Commits
sioner j. w. s. Langerman, who re-
Gently returned from mission to Mo-
rocco, being empowered as the sultan s
commissioner on his return, the
amount appropriated by that potentate
was $4,000. Anent this appropria-
tion an interesting story is told by Mr..
Danforth, assistant to Commissioner
Langerman. The amount was not
given with very good grace, according
to Mr.. Danforth, who quotes the sui
tan as saying:
"Here is $4,000. Take it. I don't
care whether you use it for the worlds
fair or put it in your own pocket. Is
don't know where st. Louis is, except
that it is somewhere in the United
States, and I don't care. And please
tell President Francis, whoever he is,
to stop writing me letters about his
fair, as am tired of getting them"

MONEY FOR PUBLIC ROADS.
Oregon's Share of Public Land Sales Is
Over 500, 1000.


Salem-The public road fund re-
ceived by the state from the United
States for the year 1908 is. four times
as large as ever before. The amount
is $50, 135 "a, and this amount will be
distributed among the counties in pro-
portion to their areas. The distribution
will be made some time this week.
This money is 5 per cent of the pro-
ceeds of sales of government land in
Oregon for 1908. It is donated to the
state under an act of congress-, and
can be used only for public road pur.
poses. The state law requires that it be
apportioned according to area and the
large and thinly settled counties get
the greater part of the money. The
apportionment is made in that manner
because the needs of the counties for
road purposes depends more upon area
that upon population orvalue of prop
erty.
The increase in sales of public lands
in this state is indicated by the in
crease in this fund.

Adopts Gold Standard.

Washington, Jan. 2s.-A belated re-
port has been received at the state de-
partment from United States Minister
Beaupre, at Bogota, upon the monetary
law of Colombia, which was passed by
the Colombian congress at its last ses-
sion. The bill provides that the none
tary unit shall be the gold dollar of the
United States; that future emission of
paper money be prohibited; that in
the departments and provinces where
silver has hitherto been current COIN
age it shall keep to the gold unit and
all paper money burned.

Booth-Kelly Company May Build Roat
to Sulslaw Harbor.
Eugene-Rumors here to the effect
that railroad to the Siuslaw harbor is
to be one of the enterprises of the
Booth-Kelly company have gained some
credence from the fact that cruisers
have been at work in the timbered re-
gions west of here. The company
denies any intention of such an under
taking. 49,
The belief is general that they would
like to get possession of some of the
good timber on the coast slope and be
in position to compete for business by
means of water freights, but nothing
definite has been done on that line as
yet. The annual meeting of the stock
holders is to be held next week and
may result in some steps toward devel-
oping business along the coast slope,
but nothing is looked for before that
time.
There is no doubt the interior mills
all feel keenly the handicap under
which they are laboring as compared
with mills to which water transporta-
tion is accessible.

MINERS ENTOMBED
EXPLOSION OF GAS CAUSES DEATH
OF NEARLY 200.
Only One Empioye Who Went Down In
the Morning Has Returned-No Warm
ing of Disaster-Rescue Impossible on
Account of Foul Air-Many Heart.
rending Scenes.

Pittsburg, Jan. 27.-From all that
can be gathered at this hour, between
$50 and 100 men are lying dead in the
headings and passageways of the Har-
wick mine of the Allegheny coal COM
pany, at Cheswic, the result of a ter
rife explosion today. Cage after cage
has gone down into the mine and come
up again, but only one miner of all
those that went down to work this
morning has been brought to the sur
face. The rescued man is Adloph
Guina, and he is still in semi-con-
scious condition at the temporary hos
pital at the rude schoolhouse on the
hillside above the mine 49,.
In addition to the miners who were
at work when the explosion occurred,
it is now believed by practically all of
the men of the rescue party who have
come up the 220-foot vertical shaft for
a warming and breathing spell that
Selwyn M. Taylor, the Pittsburg min
ing engineer, who plated the mine,
and who was the first to reach the bot
tom after the explosion happened, is
also now among the list of dead. OF
thoss in the mine all are probably
dead. .-
The explosion occurred at 8 80 CLOCK
this morning, and the first warning
was the sudden rumble under the
ground and then sheet of flame fol-
lowed up the deep shaft. Both mine
cages were hurled through the Upper,
20 feet above the landing stage, and
the three men on the tipple were hurled
to the ground. A mule was thrown
high above the shaft, and fell dead on
the ground. The injured men were
brought at once to this city, where two
of them have since died.
AS soon as the rumble of the explo-
sion and the crash at the pit mouth |
startled the little village, the wives and
children of the men below rushed to |
the scene of the disaster, but to gain |
no encouragement. There was no way
to get into the deep workings. The
cages that let the men into the mines,
and brought them out again when the |
lays work was done, were both de-
nolished
All day long there was jam of wait
ng women and children about the
nouthof tho pit. There were calls fer
assistance and for surgical aid from the
nen in charge of the mine, but it was
lot until o'clock this afternoon that
he first attempt at rescue was made.
This was failure, as the two men who
lad volunteered were driven back by
he foul air. Shortly after 5 O'Clock
'elwyn M. Taylor and one of his assist
nts signaled for the engineer to lower
hem into the shaft. Taylor is still
own there. Three times efforts have
'een made to reach him, but so far
Without avail.

sALH OF EASTERN OREGON PINE.
Seven Thousand Acre Tract Will Be
Held for Higher Prices.

1
La Grande-One of the largest tim
Der deals made in Oregon for some time
was that to George Palmer by Robert
Smith, president of the. La Grande ma
tional bank, of the white pine tract
known as the Stanley lands, about 25
miles from La Grande. This piece of
land comprises about 1000 acres, and
was sold at near the $4,000 mark.
Near this land is situated the Elgin
lumber company plant, which was in E,
cluded in the sale. This company was
organized in May, 1902, and has been
closely connected with the development
of lumber industries in Eastern Oregon.
The annual output of this plant av-
erages $4,000, 900 feet of lumber. which
found ready market as far east as Mil
waukee and Chicago. The tract of tim
Der is one of the finest in Eastern Ore
gon, and consists principally of pine of
unusual height and size, standing upon
mparatively level ground.
At some future time an extension of
the o. R. & N. from it's present termi-
nus at Elgin will tap this section and
develop large industry N numbering,
and when the land has been cleared of
timber it will still be valuable for agri-
cultural purposes.
Mr.. Palmer, the purchaser, states
that he bought these lands as an invest
ment, and will not manufacture this
timber, but will hold it for increased
stumpage. He issa banker from the
state of Iowa, and is very favorably i'm
pressed with Oregon, and will likely To-
cate here in the near future.

Cost of Field Maneuvers.

Washington, Jan. 26.-A request
for an appropriation of $1,245, 1866 for
field maneuvers for 1905, and of ST.
255, ,466 for the same purpose for the
fiscal year of 1906, was transmitted to
the house today from the war depart
ment. 1t is proposed, General Chaffee
says, to hold the maneuvers in two of
the four military divisions of the
country each year. During the present
year they are to be held in the Atlantic
and Pacific divisions.

WORK CAN 90 ON.
The Dalles Canal Will Not Be DELAYED
for Lack of Funds.

Washington, Jan. 26. ~ senator's
Mitchell and Fulton have made thor
ough investigation of ths status of Ore
I gon improvements, jMview of no river
and harbor bill at this session. Thew
found that only one project can be
taken care OF in the ordinary way-in
the sunary' civil appropriation bill
and that is the canat nd locks at The
Dalles. The senators were advised by
the chief of engineers that there was
on hand January an unexpended bal
ance OF 81 200, 900 for the bar at the
mouth of the Columbia river. The
amount for the river between Portland
and the sea was less than 500, 900.
For this project Major Langftt recon-
mended 81 zoo, 900, but the war depart
ment cut the amount down to $500, 900.
believing that no more than that
amount could be utilized in one year.
1t was stated by the chief of engineers
that the half million, if it could be OBJ
tained this year by any means, would
be sufficient until a river and harbor
bill could be passed early in the ses-
sion, perhaps before the holiday recess.
The engineers recommended, and the
war department concurred in the rec
ommendation for the appropriation of
s500,0OO. In addition, $125,0 is
favored for dredging. It is deemed
very important, the senators say, that
this appropriation should be made, but
under the existing conditions it cannot
go in the regular sundry civil bill, in
the regular course. ALI of the Oregon
improvements, except The Dalles, are
affected, and it is doubtful whether
anything can be done before January of
next year. It is the intention of the
delegation to make the very best fight
possible to get the necessary funds for
carrying on the Oregon improvements.

AMERICA NOT FRIGHTENED.
1t Expects No Trouble Over Sending Con-
suls to Manchuria.


Washington, Jan. 27.-Count Cas-
sini, the Russian ambassador, had a
long talk today with Mr.. Loomis, act
ing secretary of state, on the Far East
ern situation. The ambassadors ad-
vices gave some hope of peace, though
the phase of the question which re-
ceived most attention was the uncon-
tradicted statements which have ap-
peared in certain newspapers regard
ing the attitude of this government
The Russian government, of course,
could not presume to question the pre-
vious assurances received from this
country regarding its neutrality because
of any newspaper publication, but the
recurrence of these statements has
proved annoying.
There is no anticipation on the part
of this government of any hitch in the
reception of our consuls in Manchuria.
The evidence of approval of the COM
mercial treaty which Russia has given
convinces the state department that
the consuls will receive every courtesy.

ably 35 bushels per acre. Last season
