WASHINGTON , Aug. G. Several hun
dred letters containing tenders of service to
the Japanese government In the present war
with China have reached ths legation here.
They come from nearly every part of the
United Stales. One of the latest was from
on ox-confederate at Greenville , Miss. , offerIng -
Ing to raise n battalion , and oven a regiment
of men , If desired , at that place and New
Orleans. Another was from the foreign
legation of Cleveland. O. A third came
from an Individual who was willing to raise
a company of picked sharpshooters , and a
fourth was from a person who had some
torpedo device ho was willing to part with
for a consideration. Such communications
us the last mentioned are turned over to the
naval attache of the legation to do with as
ho deems best. To the others the legation
officials return polite dscllnatlous It Is a
penal offense for Americans to servo cither
[ n the Chinese or Japanese service while
the two nations are at war , so that the lat
ter government cannot under any circum
stances accept the offers.

LONDON , Aug. G. In the House of ConiN
mons today Sir Edwin Grey. In reply to a
question from Mr. Gourley , a prominent
ship owner , said that Japan had promised that
no warlike operations should bo undertaken
against Shanghai and Its approaches on the
condition that China does not obstiuct the
approaches to Shanghai. Japan contends
that the powers have no right to Interfere
with neutral vessels except In the event of
nn effective blockade , duo notice of which
ehould bo given , or In the case of contia-
bands of war. It would be dangerous for
Great Britain to dcllno by a general state
ment what Is and what Is not contraband
of war. Coal had been- held not to bo con
traband of war , as a rule , but It was possi
ble In certain cases that It liccoino so
Great Britain must adhere to the doctrine
that It Is not for lighters to say what la and
what la not contraband of war regardless
of the well established rights of neutral
people. _ _ _ _ _ _

WASHINGTON , Aug. G. Immediately
after the announcement ot the recall of
Mr. Ooze ? Tctenoe as Japanese minister to
this country , It was stated that Mr. Kcn-
tcroa Kantaroo had been appointed to this
position. This was an error , due , It Is
supposed , to a mistake In the transmission
of the name. A telegram was received at
the Japanese legation today announcing the
appointment of Mr. Shlnlcharo Kurlno , chief
of the diplomatic burrau of the department
for foreign affairs , to bo envoy extraordinary
and minister plenipotentiary to the United
States. Mr. Kuilno was one of the students
who were sentjto this country by the Japan
ese government as soon as that government
decided upon the policy of sending young
men abroad to pursue the course of study In
colleges and universities of Europe and
America. Some twenty years ago , when
Mr. Kurlno has thoroughly mastered the
English language , ho devoted himself to the
study of law In the Cambridge law school
at Harvard. Subsequently , upon his re
turn to Japan , 1m received an appointment
In the department for foreign affairs , where
h ° especially dealt with matters Involving
legal questions. In the summer of 1891 ,
when certain changes were Intioduced In
the organization of .the department for for
eign affairs , ho was appointed chief of the
diplomatic bureau. Within the Hst three
years many Important questions have arisen
In the relations of Japan , Including the
abrogation ot the consular jurisdiction clause
of the treaty concluded with Portugal , the
claims against the Corcan government for
damage accruing from certain all guil ar
bitrary actions of the local authorities of
that country , nnd the present difficulty , cul
minating In the declaration of war between
Japan and China. In all these questions
Mr. Kurlno has figured prominently , und he
has bo'n a favorite among the members of
the diplomatic corps.

China and Japan.
According to the news received hero to-lny

It. The story and Its effect Is pronounced

move Is her desire for a southern poit which
shall be open to her commerce throughout

MORE LIKE AN AGREEMENT
Senate and House Conferees Nearer Together
When They Adjoaraed Last Night.
APPROACHNG , EACH OTHER BY DEGREES
Homo Member * of the Conference Not
ricimcil With the Call for u Caucus
Will Go ltlght Along with
Their Work.
WASHINGTON , Aug. G. The democratic
tariff conferees were In session again today
at 11 o'clock nnd resumed the work of tryIng -
Ing to reach an agreement on the points of
difference. When some of the members of
the committee came out of the conference
room nt 12 o'clock they stated that no
progress had been made nnd that to all
appearances the situation was the same ns
It had bren for the past week.
Secretary Carlisle had recently been called
Into frequent consultation by Individual
members of the conference committee. He
was called on Saturday night by a sub
committee of the conference. He made
certain suggestions concerning the adminis
trative features of some of the proposed
compromise features nnd It Is understood
that since the suggestions were received the
conference has been considering their bear
ing upon upon the questions at issue. The
coal and Iron ore questions have been taken
up with a view to reaching nn understand
ing upon them but progress has been slow.
It Is understood that the senate con
ferees have Indicated a willingness to make
a concession In the way of time that the
duty shall continue , but not to lessen the
amount of dut > provided in either case.
The house members have not Indicated a
disposition to accept this concession and arc
understood to bo holding out for the terms
of the house bill on these items.
LOUISIANIANS' DEMANDS.
The Louisiana senators are demanding the
contlnuatllon of at least a part of the sugar
bounty for the present year , but the prospect
of the success of this demand does not ap
pear to be bright , and there is an Increase
of talk of the passing of the sugar bill In
the event of the failure of the tariff bill ,
which la piobably intended largely to bring
the Louisiana senators into line.
AVhen the tariff conferees took a recess
for lunch today two distinct views were
presented. The house conferees and the
men with whom they conversed seemed
to think that an agreement might be reached
scon. The senate conferees and these
senators with whom they advise and consult
seemed to think that the prospects were not
so bright nnd that nn ultimate disagree
ment would be reported.
It was also stated that an end must be
reached within two dajs and polther an
agreement Ir report of disagreement made.
Coal and Iron oie were tlie articles In dis
pute , the conference having been trans
ferred from sugar , which has so long en
gaged the attention of the confeiees The
contest over these articles Is very stubbornly
made on both sides.
The coal and Iron ore questions were
considered today almost to the exclusion of
every other topic , nnd the discussion pro
ceeded upon a has s of the duty provided on
these articles by the senate amendments ,
with the limitation of the time the duty
shall continue to four years. The house
conferees held out stubbornly for the entire
recession of the senate from Its amend
ments , and there appearing no possibility of
reaching an understanding the senate con
ferees withdrew to separate rooms , leavMig
the house members to themselves The day
closed with a request on the part of the
house conferees that they be given until
tomorrow to decide upon a line of action on
the coal and Iron ore questions , and the re
quest was granted. It Is now understood
that the house members have agreed posi
tively to accept or reject the senate position
tomorrow , but that It Is possible they may
subm t a counter proposition with the hope
It will be acceptable to the senators.
A member cf the coherence tonight said
that with the coal and Iron ore questions dis
posed of , there would be , ho thought , little
moro time remaining to reach an agree
ment on the entire bill , He admitted there
was a virtual understanding on all the other
schedules , Including sugar. He also said the
developments so far made Indicated wide
differences on coal and iron ore and they
had net been of a character to Indicate an
agreement at all. Still he was hopeful that
common ground might bo found on these
two articles. The Interview given out to
night by Senator Voorhees as the official
head * of the conference may change the
entire aspect of the proceedings tomorrow ,
and it is not beyond the range of proba
bilities that It will prove to be the'torch that
will set off an explosion In either the com
mittee or the senate tomorrow.

.Judge lildiH rinds a Champion to stand Up
for Him In tlio House.
WASHINGTON , Aug. G , In the house to
day a bill was passed granting to the Duluth -
luth & Winnipeg Railroad company a right
of way through the Ch.ppevva and White
Earth Indian icsei vatlons.
Mr. Johnsn , democrat of Ohio , as a mat
ter of privilege , presented the irfemorlal of
the Central Labor union of Cleveland , pray
ing for the Impeachment of Augustus J.
Ricks , United States judge of the northern
district of Ohio. The memorial recited the
charges against Judge Ricks ( already pub
lished ) , alleging misappropriation of funds
amounting to $1,155 , and other "crimes ,
misdemeanors nnd crookedness , " for which
Impeachment proceedings were prayed for.
Mr. Grosvenor , republican of Ohio , stated
that In his opinion the charges arose out of
a misunderstanding.
He knew nothing personally about the facts
and did not want to interfere , with a full in
vestigation , but he thought It would "bo a
matter of profound surprise to the bar of
Ohio If any stain was found on Judge Ricks. "
The memorial was lefcrred to the committee
on judiciary.
The petition of the Central Labor union
of Cleveland Is a voluminous document giv
ing In detail the charges that the judge be
tween September 19 , 1SS9 , and December 27 ,
1891 , converted to his own use various sums
oRgrt'gating $1 , & ! > 5. U charges that the
judge "has shown himself to bo a person
wholly unfitted to properly perform the du
ties and maintain the dignity and character
of said judicial office , that he Is au unsafe
and dangerous person to be entrusted and
that the public vvclfnro requires that he be
removed. "
The seal of the Central Labor union Is on
the document and It Is signed by Robert
Dundlavv and Robert Barthe'o as commlt-
tsc.
Copies of the records of the court giving
In detail the sums alleged to have been rats-
appropriated are appended.
Mr. Johnson has requested the judiciary
commutes to give It attention as soon as
possible. Judge Ricks Issued ono of the
first Injunctions against the railroad em
ployes In the Ann Arbor strike.
A bill was passed granting to the Kansas
City , Oklahoma & Pacific Railway company
a right of way through Indian Territory.
At 4.50 p. m. the house adjourned.
SUNATOU MII.I.S ON TAXATION.
Down Its Ciirdliml Principles In the
Form of ii Ilmolutloii ,
WASHINGTON , Aug. G. In the senate today -
day a resolution was Introduced by Mr.
Mills , democrat of Texas , and ordered to
He on the table temporarily , declaring that
In the revision of the existing system of
national taxation the following principles
should be observed :
first That all taxes are burdens on the
taxpayers and can only be rightfully Im
posed to raise revenue to support the Gov
ernment.
Secdnil That when taxes 'are Imposed
on Imported goods the rntj ilionld be so low
ns not to materially restrict Importation.
Third That In sclecitnc articles to bo
taxed , only those ready tor consumption
should bo cliofen and these Imported for
manufacture or manufacturers should be ex
empted. ,
The resolution offered on August I by Mr.
Chandler looking tb flip Investigation of
the Dominion Coal company of Nova Scotia ,
and the substitute offered by Mr. Mills In
the way of nn addition to the original reso
lution providing that a special committee of
five should be directed to report to the senate
whether any member of congress Is or was
Interested In anycompany engaged In mining
coal In any of the states of the United States
or any railroad company engaged In trans-
portlnc coal which would come Into compe
tition with the Dominion Coal company , and
whether Its removal would reduce the price
of coal to consumers and what
section of the country would be
benefited by Its retention , came up.
Discussion arose between Mr. Mills and
Mr Chandler as to whether the old "sugar"
committee should be entrusted with this
Investigation or whether a new committee
si culd bo appointed.
Mr. Mills favored the retention of the
old committee , becaiifc , as he said. It was
honest and had recently made an exhaustive
Investigation and had reported that the
charges made against senators had not bcn
sustained.
"Is that the reason that the senator from
Tesas favors this comnllttce ? " asked Mr.
Chandler.
Mr. Mills denied that ho was Influenced by
any such motives nnd expressed his willing
ness to have a new committee appointed If
Mr. Chandler preferred.
PROSPECT OK PEACE.
AVhen the democratic- conference adjourned
today there seemed td be a better feeling
[ 11110112 the conferees than at the close of
the previous session. 'Members from both
houses announced the committee had been
working over the schedules and that progress
was being made , but they did not Indicate
when n report would bo reached , though some
of the conferees expressed the opinion an
agreement was In Right.
For a considerable portion of the day the
senators were not In the conference room ,
but It was stated no significance was to be
attached to that fact , as they wcro working
toward an agreement. These senators occa
sionally repaired to the committee room of
Senator Vest and ( sometimes were In consul
tation with dcmocrattd managers In the
room of the committee on appropriations.
Considerable surprise was expressed by
the conferees when they learned that a call
for a house caucus had been Issued and It
evidently was very distasteful to the house
members , who had felt they were beginning
to see an agreement. Mr. Montgomery said
the caucus would make no difference so far
ns he was concerned aud he would continue
the work he was engaged In unless some ac
tion , very different from , that which he an-
tlclptted , would be takenby the caucus. He
said that while the [ Caucus was In progress
the conferees would be ht work.
The bill for the denudation of anarch sts
then came up and Mr.- mil evplalned Its
provisions. Unless puie action was taken
by this government , such as was now be
fore the senate , thiscduntry , he said , would
soon be the dumping groiind for the anarch
ists of the world. It was not Intended to
make the belief In anarchy a cr.me , and
therefore no attempt had been made to
define anarchy. Hefavored , the provision
of the senate bill for inspection by treasuiy
agents instead of by consuls and was sure
no one could attribute his attitude on this
section to a desire to becuro more patronage
for the secretary of the treasury. There
were no politics In the bill , and he favored
It because it was .better than the house
bill. ' \
Mr. Lodge of Massachusetts expressed the
belief that both bills vtc-re'Jnadequate for the
purpose of restricting Immigration , but ho
was anxious to see , toirie restriction placed
on Immigration , no matter how slight It
might be .
Mr. Palmer pointed out the difficulty of
*
dealing fairly with the question and the
danger of doing Injustice to the .harmless
socialists while protecting ourselves against
the danger of anarchists. Ho asked Mr. Hill
whether the bill would apply to undesirable
persons already In the country and Mr. Hill
replied It would. The discussion then took
on a legal aspect and hinged upon the right
of a country to protect Itself against un
desirable aliens. Mr. Hill pointed out the
moderation of the pending bill as compared
with the act recently passed by the English
parliament. '
Mr. Kjlo of South Dakota asked him to
more accurately define the term anarchist ,
for there wore , lie sajd , peaceable and
learned people In Boston . .who held It was
possible for people to become so highly civ
ilized as to live together without laws and
therefore , according to the usual definition ,
they were anarchists.
Mr. Hill replied .they wcro at liberty to
have this belief , but If they tried to over
turn the laws , with the purpose of putting
their belief to the test , then they became
dangerous. After some further debate nnd
the adoption of some amendments the bill
was passed and Messrs. Hill , Faulkner nnd
Chandler were appointed conferees.
At 0:30 : the senate went Into executive
session and at 5:45 adjourned.

PHILADELPHIA , Aug. G. The Philadel
phia ball park , one of the finest ot Its kind
In the country , Is a smoking wreck of crum
bling walls , charred timbers and twisted
Iron , the large stables of the omnibus com
pany adjoining to the west are new burning
and the car stables of the Thirteenth and
Fifteenth streets division of the Philadel
phia Traction company and adjoining prop

the main pavilion of the ball park. The
Philadelphia and Baltimore teams had been
scheduled to play two games at the park
this afternoon and all ot the plajers were
either practicing on the field or in their
dressing rooms.
One of the bystanders noticed a narrow
sheet of flame shooting up between the
boards of the partition nt the west end of
the stand. The players did not think the
fire serious nnd several of the bystanders
started to put It out in an Instant the
entire structure was a roaring furnace. The
stable of the omnibus company , which oper
ates a line of omnibuses on Broad street ,
was opposite the main pavilion on Fifteenth
street , at the corner of Huntlngton. The
omnibuses and horses were all saved , but
the upper floor contained n largo quantity
of hay and straw , which Is still burning
fiercely and threatens to wreck the entire
structure.
While the firemen were making strenuous
efforts to save the adjoining property the
long lines of bleaching boards opposite right
and left field In the ball park had fallen
prey to the flames and the seats und pavil
ion were burned. The loss Is estimated nt
$100,000.
Seven firemen were badly burned. The
total loss on pavilion , omnibus stables and
other property aggregates $113,000 , with $50-
000 Insurance. The games scheduled with
Baltimore this afternoon were postponed ,
and tonight the Philadelphia team left for

MONTGOMERY , Ala. , Aug. G.-So far n
returns received democrats gain In nearly
every county heard from. Kolb's big gain
Is In Jefferson county , but democrats claim
that county. Chairman Thompklns of the
democratic committee says that Oatcs and
the democratic ticket nro safely elected , with
a good majority In the legislature.
CHICAGO , Aug. G. The editor of the Mo
bile ( Ala. ) Register telegraphs the general
malinger of the Associated press at 11 p. m.
ns follows. Oates election assured by a ma
jority ranging nil ) w hero from 30,000 to CO-
000. The southern part of the state Is al
most solidly democratic , while returns from
the not them counties give bettor promise
than In 1S9J. .Many counties that polled a
close vote In KS'J. give good majorities for
the full democraticticket. .
BIRMINGHAM , Ala , Aug. G Returns In
dicate Oatcs' election by n majority not
lnger limn that of lisO.1 Kolb Is gaining tn
live or six counties , principally Jefferson ,
where the democrats have lost over 2,000.
Gates' gains nro generally distributed over
the state and are In the white counties.
Senator Morgan's return to the senate Is
assured. At 1.20 a m. the estimate of
Chairman Thompklns of the democratic
committee seems to be berne out by the
returns. Ho claims 25.000 majority , having
n majority tn both branches of the legisla
ture.
ture.Auc.
Auc. 7. ( t n. m ) Returns continue to
show democratic gains , with n prob-iblo dem
ocratic majority of ton in the legislature.
Kolb's majority In northern Alabama Is
15,000 to 18,000 , which will be offset by Gates'
majority of 15,000 to10,000 In southern and
middle Alabama.
MEMPHIS , Aug. ( ! . A Commercial-Appeal
special from Birmingham , Ala , says. De
spite the fact that the campaign Just closed
has been the most bitter ever known In the
state , the election today passed off quietly
and few disturb incos are reported. The new
Sajro election law , n modified form of the
Austiallan ballot sjstein , enacted by the last
legislature , was put In operation for the first
time and worked smoothly. The ballot was
a secret one. The voting was slow and for
that resasoii the vote was greatly lighter
than In 1S92. The negroes did not
cut much figure , as they cither
dhl not vote at all or voted almost
solidly fo' Oatcs In southern and middle
Alabama , while In northern Alabama la
majority were for Kolb The white republi
cans wore for Kolb almost to a man. Sev
eral disturbances occurred in this county.
At Bessemer the Kolbltes rnptured the polls
and ninny dem crats were pi evented from
voting by delay on the part of the managers.
Two Kolb to managers were arrested foe ,
perjury at Broaksldc , where all the ballots
wcro stolen last night , and no new ones
could be had until this afternoon , In this
county ( Jefferson ) the dempcrats lost heavily
on account of labor troubles , and the result
Is In doubt
Incomplete returns froth various counties
of the state Indicate that In south and
inlddlo Alabama the democrats have made
gains In every county except Mobile , where
the vote was light , the c ty of Mobile giving
only 700 democratic , majority against 3,000
last year. The result In north Alabama Is
about the Fame cs It was two years ago.
That Is Kolb's stronghold , and he 1ms car
ried the same counties he did In the last
election. In south and middle Alabama the
returns show democratic gains , which will
give the state to Oates by 18,000 or 20,000.
The legislature Is doubtful. The legislature
will elect n successor to Senator Morgan ,
and the democrats are anxious over the re
turns ,
MONTGOMERY , Ala. , Aug. G. The elec
tion hero nnd all through the state was
perfectly quiet. Rain fell all day and the
vote was cut down in consequence. Only
scattering retuins have been so far received.
This city and county will give about 3,000
majority for the democratic ticket. Demo
crats seemed to have gained In nearly every
locality heard from and some of the counties
that gave Kolb a majority In 1883 have gone
for Oatcs. No definite statement Is possible.
MOBILE , Ala. . Aug. G. Returns are com
ing In hlowly. The majority for Dates In this
city will be about 700 ; In the whole county
It will be about 1,000.

list national committee , about midday , while
the voting was going on , but results could
bo known with no certainty , rectlved tha
following dispatch from the chairman of the
populist state committee of Alabama :
" \Vo will carry every county In the north
ern part of the state except ono. Wo will
carry Jefferson county , Including Birming
ham. If they ilo not icpcat the frauds of ,
1S92 In the sixteen black belt counties , wo
will carry the state by at least 30,000 ma

of five or ten In the lower lions ? .
