Chinese Getting Spunky.

The question of Chinese exclusion
from the United States continues to oc-
cupy the attention of the Chinese. The
extent and depth of the feeling mani
tested astonishes foreigners and is re-
garded as an evidence of the growth OF
a national sentiment of public spirit
which five years ago would have been
inconceivable. Among many instances
cited as evidence of this, it is said that
a Chinese comprador has refused a
lucrative appointment with an Ameri-
can company. Advertisements OF
American goods continue to be refused
by the native newspapers, and letters
and kilograms from all parts of China,
as we'll as from abroad, are being re-
ceived at Pekin. urging the Central
Government to take firm stand

FRANCE and Germany are fussing
over the trade of Morocco. an almost
barren country Of northern Africa,
chiefly noted for its outlaws; and it is
known that Germany hurried many
troops to the frontier last week, while
France took occasion to reinforce some
of its most important points. Nothing
seems to have been said of the respect
i've navies, although they will doubtless
play an important part should war be
declared The French navy has al
most double the number of guns on
German ships, and the Frenchman is
by no means an inefficient fighter on
sea- To counteract this the German
army has war footing of $500, 900
well drilled soldiers, while the war foot
ing of France is 4,711.70S men. Each
country can boast of well drilled
soldiers and efficient officers, France
having devoted much time and money
to keeping its defences in the best of
order since its last defeat by Germany,
while the work of the German army
has never been permitted to fall below
the high standard maintained for many
years. Neither has been engaged in
serious warfare for number of years,
and what might be accomplished in the
field is to be demonstrated.

Peace and War Notes.

japan has selected her peace commits
sions in the persons of Messrs. Takahira
and Komura, and Russia has named
Messrs. Nelidorf and Rosen, all men
who have held official positions for the
two countries; they to meet in Washing
ton during the first ten days of August.
In Polan1 and other parts of Russia
the Red Flag is being raised and
scenes of violence occur every day. The
Gar may not have sufficient number
of effective troops to defend his Empire
in the Far East, but there never seems
a lack of Cossacks when it is necessary
to shoot down the people of some city
in Poland.
The Russky Invalid, the army organ,
supplies an argument for peace in an
estimate of the strength of theJapanese
armies, which it places at from $50, 600
to 100000 men, including the forces
operating in Korea. In the five japanese
armies opposing General Linevitch. ex
elusive of cavalry and artillery, it estl-
mates that there are from 43O, OOO 10
100000 bayonets, which give F1eid
Marshal Oyama a decided numerical
superiority over the strength usually al
lotted to Linevitch's army. The
Japanese forces, it says, are divided as
follows:
General Kuroki, 10000 to 12O,OOO
bayonets; General Oku, 110, 900 to No.
600 bayonets; General Nogi. $4,000 to
90, 600 bayonets: General Nodzu, $1,000
bayonets, and General Kawamura,
73, 600 to so, 900 bayonets.
The Novoe Vremya prints an inter
view, which its correspondent at Paris
had with a Japanese diplomat, who
saws that while nobody, outside OF the
Emperor of Japan and his principal ad-
visers, is yet in possession of Japan $
terms. he believes that they are moder-
ate and will be acceptable. He adds
that Japan is anxious to conclude
lasting peace, but that her attitude is
not influenced by the slightest doubt as
to her financial ability to continue the
war, she having anticipated a much
longer and more difficult period of
hostllities.
Yesterday fighting was reported on
the Russian right and Gen. Kuropat-
kin was reported killed, also 70, 900 Rus
slams cutoff by Gen. Nogi's army. The
Russian military experts expect Gen.
Linevitch to retreat to Harbin. They
think he cannot be surrounded on ac-
count of the length of his lines, but will
be forced to retreat.
The wave of disorder spreading over
Russia reached Odessa, Tuesday, where
strike prevails. with some bloodshed.
All the news from Lodz is being sup
pressed.
At Odessa. yesterday, the crew of a
Russian battleship muntinied, and muir
dered their officers, and striker threw
a bomb into church, killing police
