Chicago, III., Sept. 28. The twenty
fifth annual meeting of the Northwest
ern tire underwriters' association was
nH. bars Wednesday, President Stuart
of Das Moines presiding. After read
ing tba annual renort of Secretary
Treasurer Munn of Chicago, which
hewed the association to be In a dour
lug condition, the annual address was
delivered by W. T. Littlejohn ot Cut
eago. Papers were also read by C II.
Stock well of Atlanta and George San
ders of Des Moinea.
The sensation of the meeting came
early in the day. It was furnished by
W. T. Littlejonu of this city, manager
of the North British and Mercantile
Insuranee company, who make the di
rect charge that the recaut forest fires
of toe northwest, which brought death
and disaster to the people in so many
towns, are traceable to timber pirates,
who started the fires to cover up their
stealings. Mr. Littlejobn gave the an
nual address, and as his words partook
of an official nature they created no
little commotion. The accusation eon-
cerning the origin of the recent con.
Aerations has been bruitedjabout in an I Mtlng outfit, a large quantity of let-in.-.,i,(i-n
MMitUi av but th .ut. tars and circulars relating to the busi-
meuts of Mr. LltUfj.ihn will result, so
some underwriters tiy, in considerably
agitation over the subject aud possibly
in an Investigation by some of the large
companies. Following is part of Mr.
Littiejohn's address concerning the
subject of forest fires:
"The recent forest tires are traceable
to incendiaries, timber pirates who
have appropriated thousand of dollars'
worth of timber belinftiug to the state,
who in trying to cov?r up the stealings
from the state officials have fired tne
pine toppings, midf rbrusli and stumps,
so as to make it impossible to obtain a
correct measurement of the stumpage
and tlnreby leave no basis for suits !
which t ie state might bring against
them. That there is urgent ned of I

other of the gang of coua'erfaltrra who
have mad the aorthweettrn part of
nbarles Mil county the seen of their
operations has bean ran down and eap
torn ad by Deputy United Suites Mar
shal Ryan. These dispatches bar al
ready told of the arrest of Lery dark,
who bad in bis poeaissioo, when cap
tured, a complete outfit for the manu
facture of silver coin of various de
nominations. After being held to ap
pear before the next term of the United
States court, and realizing that every
thing was very dark for him, Clarke
weakend and made a confession lu the
officers, implicating another Charles
Mix county farmer namad George Wol
eott, and now that he U also a prisoner
the matter is made puplic. lie was
captured at Gay villa, Yankton county,
while attempting to get out of tne
country, and now lies In jail here.
The discovery of the counterfeiters'
den was made entirely by chance.
Henry I'enderson has a quarter s -ctioa
of laud just over the Charles Mix coun
ty line la Douglass county, He had
been absent from home some days, and
upon returning one day last week
found that someone had forced a way
into tbe house and taken some of his
things. He traced the thlet to a house
across the line In C arles Mix county
afterwards learned to be the den of
the couuterfeiters and there found bis
things. While going through the house
searching for the articles he unexpect
edly ran across the outfit for making
the spurious coin. Clark was no at
home at the time of Pederson's visit.
Pederson at once informed the author
ities ot his discovery and tbe arrests
followed. In addition to the counter-
ness were discovered In the house. The
unearthing of this gang explains tbe
reason for counterfeit money having
been so plentiful In that section during
the past fe v months. While tbe o di
cers did not succeed in securing any of
the spurious coin, there was sufficient
evidence thai the gang had reoeutly
been at work.

LowDOX, Sept. M.-A diepa'eb from
Shanghai says: Captain isng, sotn
mandar of tbe Chinese warship Chi en
Yuen, which was sunk in tha engage
ment off the Yalu river, is among the
saved.
Tba British steamer Irene, from
Hamburg, loaded with large quantities
of munitions of war is safely arrived
at Taku and has landed her cargo.
It is understood tbe governor of Man
ebnria is concentrating all the troops
raised in that province upon Mukaen
and that on the route to Wiju exten
sive earthquakes are being raised.
Tne levies are composed of hardy north
Chinamen and are excellent material,
but tbey ware badly armed, only about
4,0j0 of tbem baring good military
rifles. Further supp les, however, are
being hurried up from tbe southern
arsenals. The Chinese force on the
Yalu river is estimated at 2.H0O. Many
of these are raw levies and also are
badly armed. The loss of field guns,
rifles and ammunition at Ping-Yang
has greatly embarrassed the Chinese
war department. It is recognized a
battle must be ."ought on the Yalu and
tbe Chinese are straining every nerve
to retrieve the disaster at Ping-Yang.
European officers here doubt whether
Mukden Is really tha immediate ob
jective point of the Japaueie. It is
considered more probable th-t If they
attack Wiju the Japanese will make a
desoent from the sea upon Ned Chwang
with an expedition. If this move
should be successfully made, the Jap
anese would cat the Chinese main line
of communication and could attack
tbe Palu army ln the , rear. Neu
Ctiwang in the posemon of the Japan
ese would form a basis tor a movement
upon Mukden, or upon Pekin Itself,
and tbe forces landed there could co
operate with the army advancing from
Corea. This Is the ptau credited by ex
perts to Field Marshal Yamagata.
Tbe Island of Yaitan, In Corea bay,
baa been made a coaling store and sta
tiou from which the Japanese can keep
constant watch upon the mouth of the
gulf of Pe-Cbi-LI, nine Japauese gun
boats being stationed there.
The emperor of China holds a war

Tbe Associated press correspondent
had an interview with M. Miaoara, a
Japanese naval constructor, who Is
here supervising the building of two
first-class men-of-war for Japan. Each '
of the vessels is to be of 12.3U0 tons and
is to be completed in four months. '
With regard to the campaign, he '
thought evertlilng pointed In the direc
tion of a Japanese march toward Pe- '
kin. Beyond that be was not inclined 1
to say much. Personally be believed ;
the war would terminate before long. :
"You may depend npon it," l' itld, '
"that Japan will force matters to a fin
ish before November, when the gults
of Pe Chl-Li and Liau-Tong are frozen j
over. Y'ou will probably soon hear of J
another great battle on the Yalu. The
Japanese are great marchers, aud there- '
fore within leu days of the date of the
Ping-Yang fight we may expect some
thing important."
