recently met In San Salvador, for the I
construction of the Nicaraguan canal,
independent a,to in defiance of the in
terests and influence of the I niteil

“This action of Japan, taken in con

the greatest significance, showing, as
It does, to the authorities Hint there

In thecas-of the Hawaiian annexa

JAPAN'S SKCRKT DICKKRING.
"If Japan can encompass it, accord

here, sin would like to obtain the ab
rogation of ull treaty right* possessed
by tlie I'nltcd Stull's in relation to
inter-occunic transit and tlie forfeiture
of tlie American canal concessions
from Nicaragua, and to immediately
make a treaty with tile Diet of the
Greater Republic of Central America,
giving tier control of tlie canal route
through Nicaragua. In the negotia
tions Costa Kica lias not been consult
ed, it iielng well known that site would
not assent to a violation of treaty
rights.
“It ha* been suspected in some
quarter* that England, which ha*
always been anxious to acquire at

might la: working in collusion with
lapau in tlie ‘dickering' with the Diet
now understood to be in progress, but
nothing lias yet come to tlie surface to
ludk-atc that she lias encouraged
.Japan in tlie move. It is said that the
agent of the Nicaragua canal here lias
laid the fuels lx-fore Mr. Hitchcock,
the president of tlie canal company, in
New York, with tin- suggestion that
the Htutc department lie apprised of
the secret negotiations that are now
Iielng curried on between Japan and

Nav FraNcisto. Sept. 3.—A letter

Into a country whose disadvantages
are exceeded by no other place on
earth. Tills Alaska Northwest terri
tory is an odd prize drawing propos

admits of a better comparison than a
lottery. A number of spots arc selected
on the creeks and rivers and for
one year the miner labors. The year
closes, the water runs, and the sea
son's output burrly pays expenses.
Not two miles away from the unfor
tunate one works a man who has
taken from an uulnvitlng bit of earth
a sackful of gold. The lucky one did
not strike the pocket because of his
ability as a miner; chance favored him.
and that was all. In short, the miner
guesses at It and locates any arid

is merely a collection of log huts, sa

In ldftH Mr. billy told his friends
that he had heart disease, and in the
autumn of that year took to his bed
and lay prone there for twenty-one
years, telling his physician and friends
that if he raised Ills head or chest
above a slight angle lie would instant

idea from his mind, and his family

A few weeks ago he had a slight

Sl'DAMA, Mo., Sept. ‘1. — United

date of August -’6, to Congressman
James Cooney, of the Seventh Mis

letter from James II. Kckels, comp
troller of the currency, stating that
Senator Vest had requested that the
proposed examination of the Sedalia
Hirst National bank, in March or
April of IKH, be deferred until certain
of the hank's assets could be realized
upon. The letter Is as follows:
"In March, or April, 1S(*4, Messr.
Cyrus Newkirk, president of the bank,
and .1, C. Thompson, the cashier,
wrote me that an examination of the
bank was about to las made before the
time fixed by the established rule of
the comptroller, aud that, on account
of a false report put in circulatiou by
some one that the institution hud
fai.ed. and the additional fact that, on
account of the stringency prevailing,
they were unable to collect, there v\ as
danger of a run on the bunk if an ex
amination was made before the regu

realize u large sum from the assets of
the bank in a few days, and that the

St. I/oris, Mo, Kept. -The con
ference of iatior leaders of the conn*
try finished Its woik last evening.
The meeting was productive of several
sensational speeches ami many resie
lotions, yet no decisive action was
taken in the principal matter for
which the gathering was summoned —
the abolishment of “government by
injunction."
The convention, which had been an
nounced ns the last one of its kind to
be held, while adjourning sine die, has
merely postponed action on the mnt
tera before it for three weeks, as li
call for a similar conference, to lie
held In Chicago, Monday, Hep tom her
‘it, was issued.
Mr. Dubs and Modal Democracy dom
inated the convention, and the famous
leader carried the gathering oil' its
feet in one of Ids characteristic
speeches, lie said in purt:
“Never in my life have I been more
hopeful than now. I am not gifted
with great vissionary powers, hut I
can see the beginning of the end
(Cheers,) This meeting is an Inspira
tion it will lead to great results.
Tills movement has attained tremen
dous impetus and will go ahead with
a rush. When the people are ready,
and that day Is not fnrolf, my friend .,
there will Is- a spontaneous uprising,
the supreme court will lie abolished,
congress dispersed and the sacred
rights of American citl/-eris and Amer
ican freed men will be enthroned,
((ireat applause.)
"I plead guilty to the charge of
being radical. I only wish you would
allow me to he more radleul still.
-Support us, gentlemen of the conven
tion, and I promise you we will sup
port the attempt to abolish govern
ment by Injunction and the judges
who issue them.
“On licsrlng arms: I hope In tills
man'll of common Intelligence we wm
reach a point where we will lx; aide to
nettle there question* without appeal
lug to the sword or bullet. 1 can not
tell. Certain it I* there are thousand*
of our fellow-citizen* suffering, and
certain it I* this can not last The
tune will come to Incite the populace.
When this time comes you can depend
on me. (Cheers,; I will not stand in
the rear and ask you to go ahead. 1
will he iu front and say to you, ‘Come
on.’ (Renewed cheering ;
”1 shrink from that bloodshed, "and
Mr. Delia paused impressively, “but
if this Is necessary to preserve liberty
and our rights—lii that event 1 will
shed the last drop of my blood that
courses through my vein*. (Outbreak
of cheering.)
“The people are ripe for a great
change. All they lack is direction and
leadership. Let this conference sup
ply it Let this conference set the
pace. Announce to the world that it
will temporarily adjourn for three
week* to renew preparations. Ask
every man to pledge himself to be
there; come if you have to walk; no
man has u right to plead poverty."
Mr. Debs went over the conditions
existing in Fennsylvania, and when he
finished with that state took up West
Virginia. West Virginia, he said, had
more government to the square inch
than any state; in the union, and that
meant less liberty. The less govern
ment, the more liberty—the only |»er
feet government was no government
at all. In conclusion. Mr. Debs said;
“My friends, assert yourselves; en
force your cause. Let every man who
can be as good as his word stand
erect."
