CHINA AND

SCRAPPY
laps Object to Chinese Build
ing Railroad and the
Situation Becomes
Strained.

Pekin, July 24.-Relations be-
tween China and japan are badly
strained today over the proposed con
struction OF a railway from Tsitsik-
har, in Manchuria, TO Peking. This
road has been contemplated by Chi
nese capital, who desire to cut OF
several hundred miles from the 81
berian railway between China and
Russia, and open up a rich agricul-
tural area.
Chinese promoters have urged this
enterprise for several years, and the
government heartily endorsed their
plans. The japanese government,
however, resented this activity, and
the project was, for a time, aban-
doned.
Recently the Chinese promoters
renewed their demand for a conces-
sion on the road, but once more To-
kio stepped in with strong objections.
The Chinese capitalists resent this
interference on tn part OF Japan,
and delicate situation has been ere
ated.
The Chinese claim that the Toxic
desires delay, so that 1t
can settle the area with Japan, and
then secure the franchise for itself.

near Fishers Landing and wanted to
be taken to her.
. Detective Snow entered the room
during the query and reported that
two shots had apparently been fired,
as the corpse showed two holes in
he chest, and as but one shell had
been found he wished to question her
concerning this. On being told that
the shot must have entered the chest
and been deflected and come out on
the other side Mrs. Collins jumped
TO her feet, demanding that she be
told that he was still alive, and her
collapse was complete when told that
ne was dead.
The peculiar actions Of the woman
are almost unaccountable. She talked
fairly rational on every subject except
ihe details of the shooting. She
would tell of the family troubles, but
whenever the occurrence this morn
ing was broached she seemed wildly
excited and would only tell that she
was guilty.
Detective Snow went to the district
attorneys office at once after the in
vestigation and swore 20 a complaint
charging Mrs. Collins with murder.
Dr. Collins graduated from Drake
medical college, Des
Moines, Iowa, and practiced medicine
there for a few years, after which
he went TO st. Louis, where he re-
mained until he came 10 Portland
about two years ago.

INSURANCE RATES
WILL Be LOWER

Within two or three weeks a new
underwriters book for Pendleton will
be out and it will show a reduction
in rates for considerable local prop
erty That the reduction in the bus
iness section will be from six to seven
per cent in many instances is declared
by S. G.. Jewett, head of a squad of
men now rerating the city. For res
idence property the reduction is much
greater.
According to Mr.. Jewett there are
many places that will be reduced
more than is mentioned above while
other property will obtain no reduc-
ton at all. In some instances rates
will be increased.
Those now at work in the local
underwriting squad are Mr.. Jewett
r. H. COnant, H. II. Hampson and
w. A. Newman, the last named being
the electrical inspector. They will
complete their work tomorrow.
Should the city establish a paid
fire department, equipped with a
chemical engine and hose cart the
rates would be reduced at least 10
per cent according to Mr.. Jewett.
According to the insurance men the
lower rates for the city are due to
general reduction that is being
granted and not to any local con-
ditions. The local risks are being
transferred from the old book 4 to
book 3.
