SHAhCHi, Nov. 17. Tbe special wrres
pondent of the United pres has bad an
interview with Missionary Cockburn of
'.he Scotch mission at Yohang, who has
Uen among the sufferers by the recent
anti-foreign riots at that place. Mr.
CockburD is a shrewd observer and a
man of long experience among the
Chinese. He says that he believes that
the present trouble springs from hatred
of foreigners as a race on the
part of the Chinese, and not from any
special prejudice against foreign relig
ion. This view as to the motives for the
outrage and murders is shared by the
Kev. Mr. Dart of the American mission.
There seems to be just now considerable
apathy at Shanghai. Everybody is wait
ing to see what the foreign governments
will do. To all appearances all except
the French are un billing to take any
step that might bring an actual war.
The French are aggressive, but in this
respect they stand alone among the
powers.
The English are bent upotj giving pro
tection in every instance where it ap
pears to be needed, so fir as their forces
in Chinese waters will permit, but they
apparently have a stronger sense of Rus
sian encroachments on the Pamier where
Chiua may prove a valuable ally, than
of danger to British subjects in China.
The Chinese authorities, under appie
hension of punishment from the foreign
fleets, are showing a little more diligence
in the punishment of the insurgents
that fall into their hands. Two more
rebels have been beheaded at Ichang
aad a number of others have been sub
jected to the various tortures which the
Chinese know so well how to apply.
The foreign colonies are also gratified
by the news just communicated to the
United Press correspondent that China
had paid two idemnities, one of $10,000
for the outrages committed by the riot
ers at Wuhu and another of $20,000 to
the relatives of the victims massacred at
Wusih. This peace-bearing announce
ment is marred by the information that
15,000 rebels are in arms at Tehwei; that
they have repeating rifles, and that they
are particularly animated with hatred
for foreigners.
The British consul Baid in an inter
view, that in his opinion, the present
claim was deceptive; that the volcano
was slumbering, but not extinct, and
that a general outbreak would probably
take place in the spring, to be followed
by massacres in the summer. The con
sul believes that light draught gun
boats are urgently needed, so that the
towns further removed from the coast
can be visited and their foreign resi
dent protected.

A DuMirou Fire.
Cleveland, O., Nov. 17. At 8 o'clock
Sunday evening a disastrous fire broke
out in the business centre of this city.
It originated m the Standard bottling
works and soon spread to surrounding
blocks on Frankfort street, between
Bank and Water streets. Tbe flames
spread and attacked the large printing
establishment of Shori A Forman, a
Ire story block to the east of the struc
ture, where the fire begBn, was reached
by the flames. It was tilled with a num
ber of small manufacturing establish
ments end the grease and oil added
fresh fuel to the b.'aze. It, looked as
though the entire corner was doomed
and the guests in the Johnson house
and Weddel house began to move out
their effect. By good work the firemen
succeeded in keeping the fire within its
original bounds, and it was extinguished
after three blocks had been gutted.
When the fire first began tbe men of
engine company No, 1 were ordered in
to the, burning block. Without any
warning an upper story suddenly fell in
and Captain John Orady was cut off
from hie comrades and burned to death
almost before their eyes. Fireman
Howley was crushed into eternity by
falling walls.

Washiutos, Nov. 21. A. K. Tingle,
supervising special agent of the treasury
department, in his annual report to the
ee.-retary of the treasury, make the fol
lowing report of the work of his office:
Number of suits commenced, fifty
eight; number of eei.ures, 1,020; number
of arrests for smuggling, siity-fotr;
vlue of seizures, 9143,23c 17; amount
recovered on account of seizures, liuea,
penaltisi aad duties, 2:5,CJ).75; re
ducti m in expenses, .'I21,9.K).25; amount
expended for salaries sud traveling ex
penses of special agents, $tS3,0K'.54.
Mr. Tingle mentions the various
methods in vogue to defraud the govern
ment by undervaluation, many of the
causes being exposed by special agents
and the offenders arrested. On the sub
ject of opium smuggling he says: "One
of the serious questions confronting the
department in the exercise of its funo-
I tion of collecting the revenuea.ia the
great difficult under palitical condi -tious
of enforcing the lavs against
smugglers who make the Dominion of
Canada the base of their operations.
Until within the past few years the line
from tbe lakes to tbe Pacific ocean
needed but little watching, a tbe in
ternational boundary line ran through
a region some hundreJs of miles in
width, practically uninhabited, now all
this is changed. Railways running
parallel on both sides of the boiindry
line intersected by other railways cross
iog the line have brought with them
population and constant communication
between the two countries. There are
but four collection districts upon the
northern frontier between the Lake of
the woods and the Pacific ocean, a dis
tance of about 11.000 in ilee, each dis
trict embracing a large territory. Tbe
number of oflicers tor preventive duty
upon this long line of frontier does not
exceed twenty, and the present customs
appropriation will not admit of any
material increase of this force. Al
though these oflicers are active and vigi
hi ni, making frequent captures of smug
gled goods, chiefly opium, it is apparent
Unit their efforts to prevent smuggling
are in a large degree futile. A similar
condition of affairs exists upon the long
boundry line between the United States
and .Mexico, The district of Puet
sound, comprising msny islands within
a few miles of British territory and a
long line of water front, furnishes faci i
ties for smuggling and the clandestine
introduc'iun of Chinese, against which
'he f iiriiiitj rnVrs have vaisly con
tended. The revenue steamer on that
station, under its present energetic com
mander, has done good work in checking
snuggling, but this vessel is unfit on
account of tier size and want of speed to
render an efficient service. It is believed
that it will be necessary to employ a
number of speed steam launches to
patrol the waters of Puget sound in or
der to break up this illict traffic. I am
reliably informed that during the last
year 125,0(0 pounds of crude opium were
imported and manufactured at Victoria,
making about 70,000 pounds of the pre
pared article for smoking purposes and
nearly every pound of it was smuggled
into the United States. It is more
profitable to take the risk of an occa
sional capture and confiscation than to
pay the enormous duty of 812 per pound
which is prohibitive of legitmate im
portations aod is the essential basis of
the smuggler' profit. Reduce the duty
to tl per pound and his occupa'.ion wiU
be done.

Paris, Nov. 21. A semi-official dis
patch received here from Shanghai
states that the situation arising from
the recent action of the Chinese ia at
tacking and threatening foreigners in
Hunan is more satisfactory, owing to tbe
energetic action of the representatives
of the foreign powers. Tbe chief of
Kalao Hui, a secret society, was recently
arrested in Shanghai. His right bsnd
man, Chen Kin Lung, shortly afterward
was arrested at Soo Chow. Chen Kin
Lung was subjected to torture, but
would confess nothing. However, pa

Lomdok, Nov. 2a The story of the
suffering and death of P. W. Nally, the
Irish patriot, has created a sensation
hardly inferior to that csuesd by tbe
Pigett revelations. On all sides are

A Terrible Story.
West Sci'kkiok, Wis., Nov. 20. C. 11.
Gear arrived in the city looking for
relatives of James McBride, who lies m
a critical condition at his home ou a
claim adjacent to Grand ltapids, Minn.
Gear say that a few weeks ago a party
made up of men named llahu, Bedding,
Bruce, McBride and two unknuwu .ueu,
started on a hunting trip to the liiiinj
Lake country. Last Friday McBride
came to his cabin with his feet bare,
left arm broken and bands and feel frost
bitten and in a delinous condition. In
his lucid moments the following story
was gleaned. After the party had been
out several days Keddisg, who furn
ished the supplies, cut off the whisky
rations. This enraged Halm and Int.
friends and they lied Bedding and Me
Bride in tree's. Afterward McBriiin was
leased and driven from eamp without
even a blanket.
McBride hung around out of roach of
tbe men, who became wildly drunk.
Next day be returned to camp and
found Redding still tied so the tree,
with bis head blown off, and at his feet
was Bruce, his body full of bullets. No
trace of the others could be found, Mc
Bride managed to make his way back
and is now being cared for.

Homomi.u, Nov. 20. There has been
considerable eicilemsnt hsre the past
two week over the arrest and detention
of the owners of the British yaclit Bedie
charged with smuggling a large amount
of British money into port. About St-p-tember
1 theyacut, containing Messrs.
Bloom and Douglass, the owners, and
a young man named Joseph Byrne
besides the crew, arrived. The yacht
was placed in the dry dock for a thor
ough overhauling while the party rented
a fine residence, furnished it handsome
ly and entertained royally. Money whh
spent freely, all payments being made m
English sovereigns. On the arrival of
the steamship Australia from the col
onies came a detective with a story of
the robbery of a bank at Siduey of over
50,000 English sovereigns. Tbe photo
graphs he had tallied with the appear
ance of tbe people here. He went to
San Francisco for the purpose, he said,
of cabling to Sidney for further instruc
tions, as there is no extradition treaty
between Australia and Hawaii for such
a crime. Several days before the re
turn of tbe steamer the marshal nolised
the yachting party getting ready to
leave. As he could not hold
them any other way, they were
arrested on a charge of smuggling in
money. The detective did not come on
the steamer, however, nor send sny tes
timony, and as the officers could not
find the money in the yacht, tbe charge
had to be dismissed and the mysterious
party sailed away.
