WAR OFTHE POWERS
China Played a Deep Game in the
Manchuria Negotiations.
EMPRESS WON'T GO TO PEKING
'Warlike Feeling lv Japan and Ac
tive Preparation* for
Trouble.
Mow York Sun Somcfal Smrvlcm,
Victoria, B. C, April 18.—Advices re
ceived by the steamer Tosa Maru include
a dispatch from a high Chinese official
with the Chinese court at Hsian or Sin
gan-fu to a Chinese of Shanghai, a trans
lation of which is published in the North
China Daily News. It throws some new
light on the Mancburian intrigues and the
proceedings between Russia and China,
which, according to the dispatch, were
carried out by the Chinese officials with
the hope of provoking a European war.
The translation of a portion of the dis
patch reads:
Although it is well known that Li Hung
Chang has always been a Russophile, still,
for the sake or impartiality, I must say,
from my personal knowledge of the affair,
that the accusation which rumor has spread
about that Li Hung Chang was the chief
mover in the Russo-Chinese intrigues about
the cession of Manchuria to Russia, is in
correct. In this matter Li Hung Chang was
merely obeying the orders of the reaction
ists at Hsian, under the direction of the
arch intriguer and anti-foreigner, Yung Lu.
It seems that when Yung Lv found Man
churia at the mercy of the Russians, and
very likely to be annexed by them at the end
of the present trouble with foreign powers,
ho conceived the idea of luring the Russians
away from the concert of the powers by
promising the Muscovite special privileges in
all the Manchurian provinces, if Russia
would take the lead in withdrawing her
Uoops from Peking and Chili provinces.
Empress Won't Return.
Another private telegram from the
court says:
The emperor is afraid of his life if he op
poses the empress dowager's slightest wish,
and so keeps perfect silence, leaving all to
destiny and foreordination.
Affairs are In the utmost confusion here in
Hsian, no man knowing what may happen
the next day. A grand councilor asked the
empress dowager when she intended to re
turn to Peking. The empress dowager flushed
with anger when this question was asked,
and, with a stamp of her foot cried:
"1 am not going to Peking now, nor shall
the emperor. Does any one in his quiet
senses think that we will quietly put our
selves within the vuthles3 grasp of the for
eign power*, whose forts and guns are to
be a constant menace to the lives and safety
of those residing within the forbidden city?
The mere feeling, when we rise up from our
beds in the morning or retire at night, that
we are eternally at the mercy and caprice
of a foreign foe should we return to Peking,
makes death preferable. I shall certainly
refuse to return while conditions remain as
at present."
JAPAN IS WARLIKE
Strong Feeling- and "Preparations
for Trouble.
Correspondence of the Associated Prese.
Yokohama, March 30, via San Francisco,
April 18. —Whether the feverish activity
at the arsenals and navy yards, or the
unanimous voice of the native press, or
the corroborative reports of a decided
stand being resolved upon by the govern
ment are taken into consideration, there
remains little or no doubt that Japan has
made up its mind to face Russia alone if
necessary. There is no mistaking the
patriotic fervor of the people. It sur
passes in intensity all that was exhibited
at the outbreak of the Chinese war in
1894, and a dissenting voice is nowhere
heard. Even the most conservative and
moderate journals are pronounced in their
advocacy of a firm stand by the govern
ment.
Every vessel of Japan's immense fleet
is in commission. The standing squadron
is hovering in the vicinity of the Korean
coast. The time of relieving the Korean
garrisons has been shortened, and the
main battalion has been dispatched
thither with three staff officers. The ar
senals are working night and day, and the
hospital ships are being refitted with all
possible dispatch.

Disquieting Reports of Movements
of Chinese Troops.
Berlin, April 18.—Field Marshal Count

■Chinese are advancing through the de
files between the provinces of Shansi and
Chili. It is not known whether their in
tentions are peaceable or warlike.
London, April 18.—The Standard pub
lishes the following dispatch from Tien
tsin:
The Chinese assert that General Ma
has resolved to recommence hostilities
under the impression that the allied com- ,
mander3 are preparing to send an ex
pedition against Sian-fu from the south.
Peking, April 18.—Trustworthy Chinese
report that troops in large numbers are
massing in the province of Shansi, near
the frontier of the province of Chlhli.
Well-informed natives prophesy further

West Superior, Wis., April 18.—At the
meeting of the council this evening, the
squabble between the mayor and Fred

BUSINESS IS RESUMING
BETTER FEELIAG AT PRETORIA
But Small Boer Columns Are Still
Making Trouble for the
British. r .
Maw York Sun Special Scrvlca ,
Pretoria, April 18.—A majority of the
Pretoria merchants have been allowed to
return and they have baen granted liberal
permits to import goods. The shops are
opening, and trade is reverting into legiti
mate channels. Similar treatment has
been accorded the merchants in most of
the garrison towns.
There is no longer organized resistance
by the Boers, but small, mobile columns
roam about, avoiding contact with large
British forces, attacking weak ones and
looting when it is possible. This makes
the task of subduing the country extreme
ly difficult. Still, the"aggressive policy of
the British is having great effect, as is
shown by the daily surrenders. While the
end of the war seems still a long way off,
a more hopeful feeling prevails. ■■ *■ ?

ALASKAN JUDGE'S LOXG TRIP
Thirty-six Day* Behind a Dos Team
to Kill Ilia Date.
Special to The Journal.
Fargo, N. D.. April 18.—Some of the
difficulties and hardships of the judges
of Alaska are shown by a recent letter
from Reveiver W. R. Edwards of the
Rampart City land office, and a son of
Major Edwards, the Fargo editor. Judge
VVickersham of Tacoma, a former law
partner of John Mayo Palmer of Chi
cago, presides over the third judicial dis
trict of Alaska, with official headquarters
at Eagle. Last summer he held a term
of court at Rampart and promised to be
back this spring to hold another.
Along in the winter he learned he would
be unable to make the trip to Rampart
after navigation opened this spring and
get back to Eagle for the July term.
The difficulties of Alaskan travel did not
deter him from fulfilling his promises,
and Jau. 25 he left Eagle and "mushed"
behind a dog team to Rampart, reaching
there March 2. He was thirty-six days
making the trip over the frozen snow and
still greater dangers were added by heavy
snow storms. He held his term of court,
disposed of several civil cases and took
a murderer back to Eagle for trial. He
started on the homeward trip "mushing" ,
over the ice and would reach Eagle lodge
before the boats could come down the
river and return.
The Alaska Forum, which W. R. Ed
wards has bee*! editing, speaks very
highly of Judge Wi-ckersham's action; and
contrasts his job with the snaps some of
the wearers of the ermine have in this
section of the country.

MILSTED'S CASE FAILS
GerVe Now Threatens Salt for Being
Put I DiLer Arrest.
Special to The Journal.
Jamestown, M. D., April 18. — W. H.
Oerke, accused of embezzlement, has
been discharged after a preliminary hear
ing lasting nearly three days. The com
plainant v.as Steward John Milstead of
the asylum. Milstead's claim was punc
tured when it was brought out in the evi
dence that Gerke had given him a bill
of sale of twenty-five tons of hay and
forty bushels of potatoes at the request
of the complainant in order that Gerke
might avoid payment of money to others
who were pressing him. Gerke regarded
the property as still his own and used
it. Miistead seems to have thought the
bill of sale an absolute conveyance and
when the property turned up missing
caused Gerke's arrest. Gerke has an
nounced his intention to sue Milstead for
$5,000 damages for false arrest.
CAVT OET A JI'RY
Simmer Trial at Houghton May Bp
Taken to Another County.
Special to The Journal.
Houghton, Mich., April 18.—The trial of
Hadley D. Sumner, charged with the mur
der of Benny Martin during a charav
ari at the wedding of the former's sister
at Calumet last fall is on in circuit court.
There is great difficulty in securing a Jury
on account of the case being so well
known. All prospective Jurors seem to
have opinions formed. Thirty-four of the
regular panel were examined Tuesday. A
new list of fifty empaneled Tuesday after
noon was exhausted this morning and
talesmen were then called. Not a satis
factory man has yet been found. The
case will likely not be tried here, but will
probably go either to Baraga or Marquette
counties. There is much interest and the
court room Is crowded.

Fergus Falls, Mian., April 18.—Judge
Amidsn last evening sentenced Spire Bis
kzza to eight months in Jail in this city.
Bisazza was convicted of concealing $10,
--000 worth of goods from his creditors, but
the jury recommended mercy. The pris
oner may have further difficulty on the ex
piration of his sentence, as there are pro
ceedings against him on the charge of con
tempt of court.

"bmdycooked foodT"
A Great Convenience for Housekeepers.
Two young ladies in a certain city are
employed down town and rent a small
flat, where they do light housekeeping.
Frequently they are invited out evenings,
and the subject of meais i a a puzzler.
Of late they have solved the problem by
keeping some nice rich milk or cream
convenient and a package of dry, crisp
Grape-Nuts near by.
In thirty seconds the meal is ready and
it is a most fascinating meal, too, for the
creamy taste blends with the peculiar
delicate sweet of the grape sugar in the /
Grape-Nuts, producing a never-to-be-for
gotten flavor. The sustaining power of
the food ia sufficient to keep one well
nourished even when a small amount is
used.
