Vice Con sul Deo. of the Chinese legation , has just ro- celved from Walla Walla tbo statement of Hugh McMillan , which throws light on tbo murder of thirty-four Chinese miners In the Snake river some years ORO.

McMillan now makes a statement , which was given him by his HOII Hoburt , 10 years old , just before tbo lad's ' death. Young Mc Millan , Brilco Evans , Hiram McCord , Max Lartio nnd Frunic Vuughnn were in a cattle camp near the Snake rlvor , when some ono suggested that they clean out n neighboring camp of Chinese minors. Armed with re volvers nnd Winchesters they surprised tbo camp nnd killed thirty-two Chinese , oulv ono escaping , who was wounded. They searched the camp and obtained ever $5,000 in gold dust. On the next day the party returned to look for the wounded Chinaman. They found btm in n boat and beat out his brains. Then they discovered eight Chinese coming down the river. These they ambushed nnd mur dered and throw their bodies into the river. Not content with this , they started up the river to another Clituesa camp , where thir teen men were working.nnd the same bloody work was repented. The unarmed Uhluoso could offer no resistance. All were shot ana tlio bodies were cast Into the river. Hero tbo murderers found a largo amount of gold dust , estimated at $ .MOUO. ) , which they divided. The scoho of the horror wns in Walla Wulla county. The Chliicso consul , Bco , did all in his power to tmck them down nnd to sccuro indemnity for this atrocity , which was ono of the worst that has ever occurred oa the coast.

On the question of who shall bo leader the gossip tonight Is thai the loairuo will remain neutral. The disposition of the funds already sent to Ireland , will , it Is thought , receive' vigorous consideration , particularly the ? JOO,000 locked up In Paris by the rival leaders. President John Fitzgerald was reported this evening as still unublo to leave bis room. It is possible that his brother , David Fitz gerald , will bo called to the chair. Dr. Thomas O'HoIlly of St. Louis Is also men tioned for the honor. In nn interview tonight Dr. O'Reilly said : 'Tlio convention will not bo run in the In terest of any man. No personal ends will be subserved by it. Neither Alexander Sul livan nor Mr. Parnell , nor McCarthy , nor anyone else will bo allowed to dominate the convention. Wo will endeavor to bring about harmony of actltm between the men in Ireland and tbelr brothers here in nn effort to obtain homo rule for Ireland.Vo have no claim on the fc > 00,000 of lenguo funds in Paris , Put wo think it. a sbamo that the suf fering evicted tenantry in Ireland should bo so long deprived of this money which wns Intended by its donor to aid them.

Tlio Omnbn exposition was formallj opened last night , At 8 o'clock the doors wcro thrown open nnd within n short time the spacious aisles between tbo many ex. blblts were thronged with pcoplo ; the Musical Unlou baud , from n balcony erected over tbo cntranco to the main Door , sent forth strains of Inspiring operatic airs , nud the exposition was lu full blast. Arrangements had bonu made to hnvo Hon. John M. Tburston deliver mi appropriate ad dress on the occasion of tbo opening , but the Judge was called nwny at the appointed tlmo nntl was iinnblo to bo present , consequently that part of the programme wns dispensed with. The Coliseum building presented nu nj- pearauco atrangly in contrast with its usual buro and unattractive aspect , Hundreds of yards of bunting hud boon used with telling effect In hiding from vloiv the rough rafters nnd instead of the usual view of girders ami rods stretching in apparent confusion from side to side nnd from end to end , tbo oyc was refreshed by a pleasing urray of the national colors arranged in fo.noons falling gracefully from the ccntro to the several sides. Interwoven - woven with the bunting were ropes of ovor- grcen forming an artistic plan of decoration. Attractive booths of different colors were arranged on cither aide of broad ai. lcs stretching entirely around the building nnd on the inner side of n court formed in the centre of the building were other booths. All wcro lllled with attraetlvodUpIays by Omaha merchants and manufacturers together with a few linns from other points. Each exhibitor had evidently exerted him self to the utmost to make a line display and it was the opinion of all present last night that the exhibits were fur superior to those made last yoar. Among the displays were several by Omaha manufacturers who availed them selves of the opportunity offered thorn to present to the public nn idea of the line of goods manufactured in Omaha nnd thereby encourage the patronizing of Omaha indus tries. Tboso booths seemed to bo the principal centres of intoroit , judging from the crowds which surrounded them. The exposition is nn assured success , and the management has bc"n indefatigable 111 its efforts to bring about this result. Noth ing tins boon loft undone which could con tribute in the slightest degree to uiako the affair a success and the comfort of the patrons of the exposition has been carefully looked after. Ample provision has boon mndo for the safety of tl o crowd in case of flro und lha numerous exits are indicated by largo signs. The list of exhibits will bo Increased today by the addition of a largo locomotive made of agricultural products. This interesting picco of architecture formed a part of the exhibit of Lincoln county nt the state fair and will bo assigned n prominent place at the exposition , The engine did not arrive In time to bo placed in position lust night , but it will bo put in place today. Another Interesting feature which will ha added today Is ths displav made at the Nor folk fuir by the birol sugar factory located at that point. The display is a most interesting ono and will form a loading feature. The public schools will bo dismisso at noon today , this having been set apart as child ren's day , and tlio little folks will bo admit ted to tbo exposition at 10 cents each , which will nlso'iidmit them to the automatic village on exhibit , which will prove of Immense in terest to the children.
