WILL RELEASE
THE TATsU MARU
Chinese Customs Cruisers Get
Hold of the Wrong
Vessel.

Pekin, March lit is announced thai
the Chinese government will surrender
the Japanese steamer Tatsu Maru
which was seized on Feb. Z by the Chi
nese customs cruisers outside of Macao
while unloading a large consignment OF
rifles and ammunition, the rifles num-
bering several thousand.
1t was originally charged that an at
tempt was being made to bring war
supplies into China for revolutionists.
The statement is made by officials
in the Chinese government that a con-
spiracy is on foot 30 import seven or
eight thousand rifles and ammunition
therefor, and the government believes
that the munitions on the Tatsu Maru
were intended for rebels on the Ton
king border, but it has not been able
to prove the act of smuggling.
A dispatch from Toxic yesterday
stated that the Japanese government
was maintaining a determined attitude
with regard to the seizure by the Chi
nese of the Tatus Maru, and that ii
would demand both an apology and an
indemnity from China. 1t was stated
also in this dispatch that the Chinese
foreign office wished to submit the
entire question to a mixed court. To
this, however, the Japanese govern
ment would not consent until the YES
sci was first released.
The Toxic statement declared that
the Tatsu Maru was regularly cleared
from Kobe with a consignment of arms
and ammunition for Macao, and that
the Portuguese minister at Pekin sup
ported the contention of the japanese
minister of foreign affairs that the YES
sci was seized in Portuguese waters.
The armored cruiser Idzumi sailed on
Friday from Shanghai for Hong Kong,
her object being understood to be the
investigation of the seizure of the Tatsu
Maru.

SERIOUSLY INVOLVED.
Japan May Provoke War in conse-
qence of Seizure.

Victoria, B. c., March China has
seriously involved herself with both ia
pan and Portugal by the seizure of the
Japanese steamer Tatsu Maru No. ten
miles off Macao, according TO advices
received by the steamer Empress of
Japan, which arrived tonight from Yo-
kohama, and unless immediate and SUBJ
stantial reparation is made Japan is
disposed to consider the matter a casus
belli.
Arrivals by the Empress of Japan say
considerable excitement prevails in ia
pan regarding the seizure, especially
following upon a number of questions
which have recently arisen between ia
pan and China.
The viceroy of Canton's offer of
settlement was refused by Consul Uye-
no at Canton, and Minister Hayashi at
Pekin has made a strong protest. A
British warship was sent from Hong
Kong TO the scene, and a cruiser was
being sent by Japan. The Toxic gov
eminent states i'm a note it will not be
satisfied with less than the release of
the steamer, punishment of the officers
who seized her for hauling down the
Japanese flag, and compensation.
Warned by Cipher Telegram.
When the Tatsu Maru left Japan
kilograms in cipher were sent to the
Chinese government. in consequence of
which the Chinese gunboat Pc Blk,
with number of foreign drilled troops
on board put to sea under sealed or

Portuguese port. The schooner was

and $50 rifles, not manifested, which
were secreted. were taken. The Chi
nese commandant, Captain WI, hauled
down the Japanese flag and replaced it
with the dragon flag, and placed armed
forces aboard. A Portuguese junk with
some Portuguese troops on board, went
out to assist the japanese steamer. but
was prevented from communicating
with her by the Chinese, in conse-
quence of which strong protests are be-
ing made by the Portuguese officials.
All communication, was prevented. The
war munitions. which the Chinese say
are intended for Chinese rebels, were
consigned by Awaya & Co, the Kobe
firm interested in the big japanese
mine on Queen Charlotte islands Brit

The Citizens Health committee of
San Francisco has become so much
aroused to the danger of an out
break of plague with the approach
of summer that It has provided
means to enable the bounty on
rats to be increased to 25 cents for
males and so cents for females. At
such rates there should be easy
money in the rat catching industry.
At present the bounty is 10 cents a
head. and about 900 rats ere killed
daily. but DR.. Blue, the federal
health officer is not satisfied, and
urges that the war be waged with
greater determination. Accordingly.
the committee has undertaken to
raise fund of 100000, and to en-
ploy 700 men, to aid the govern
ment work of rat determination. The
recent appearance of a new human
case of plague. after period in
which the disease seemed to have
departed, has helped to make the

4 bill designed to put stop to
frivolous appeals to the supreme
court of the United States in criminal
cases has been passed by the house
of representatives and should become
law. 1t provides that no appeal
shall be allowed to that tribunal in
habeas corpus proceedings arising
in state court unless permission
be granted by such court, or by a
justice of the supreme court of the
United States, who must be con-
yinced and certify that there is prob
able cause. 1t has been a common
practice to take such appeals from
state courts on the pretext that some
federal question was involved. thus
securing for the prisoner a delay of
from one to two years.
