tho active workers for tho fair, have asked
permission to locate their special building

Tho following letttcr has been received
by Governor Francis from J. A. Ockcrson,
who Is at Paris:
I beg to state that at a meeting of the
council of the Klghth International Con

them to bear In mind when considering
the time nnd plnco for future meetings
that the United States government had
made an appropriation for u world's expo
sition to be held In 8t, Louis In 1903. 1
regretted very much that I could not pre

PIKKRE. S. D.. Auk. l!. (Special.) The
assessment returns on live stock show a
decided Increase over the number returned
for last year. The total number of cattle
returned Is 955,577 head, which Is an In
crease of 14.1,512 over last year. Ilutte
county returns tho greatest number, with
5S.745, whllo Stanley returns 35,137 nnd
Hutchinson county shows up tho largest
number of any county cast of tho river,
with 30,166. These figures would appear
to sustain the general belief that a largo
number of range cattle are astray about the
time tho assessor ts on his rounds. The
total returns of all counties west of the
river is 222,661 head.
Tho total number of sheop returned Is
119,876, which Is an Increase of 73,510 over
last year. Of this number 179,529 arc re
turned from west of tho river, Stanley
county loading In number, with 59.693, and
Dutto next, with 27,226.
The totnl number of horses returned Is
351,596, nn Increase of 11,600. Tho west
river counties return 66,652, but counties
cast of tho river return a greater number

of $323,071 over last year's rolurns. Hutch
inson county has reported $158,045 and
Ynnkton county $136,860. Ono of tho pe
culiarities of the returns on this class of
property Is that only $3,260 could bo found
In Lnwrcnco eounty, ono of tho wealthiest
counties In tho stato, while Hydo county,
which is a small and exclusively granger
county, shows up $5,900. In fact about

CHKVKNNi;, Aug. 19.-(Spcclal.)-Both
political parties in Wyoming have made
their preliminary moves on tho political
chess board nnd soon tho campaign will
open In earnest. There being no stnte
officers to elect this fall, tho campaign will
bo COnllncd to the nlonllnn ct nrnl,1.,,.M1
electors, mcmbel- of congress nnd merabors
ui uio smto legislature. Tho latter means
tho selection of n ITnlt.,1 t..a .nnnir n
succeed Hon. P. E. Warren, who It Is
umicrsioou win bo a candldntc to succeed
himself. There Is
to warrant tho belief that tho contest will
oo lougnt to a finish In every county in
the state, thotieh It umii in t n, ,,.
eral belief that tho woolmen and the
Hmcsmen win work hard to protect their
Interests, and this will assist tho party
materially and almost In Itself Insuro tho
success nf their ticket. Hon. J. A. Van
Orsdel, tho clinlrmnn nf ihn i.mii,ii..n
stato central committee, has opened head
quarters in tlio Commercial block nnd Is
nt work orgaulzlnc tho mmnninn tr
seen yesterday by Tho Boo correspondent
nuu miKcu conservatively regarding mat
tern political. When requested to express
his views ho said:
"There Is little that can t.o UAlrl .... r.l I

ablo at this tlmo to show how tho election
Is likely to go, as It Is too early to even ven
ture on estimates, and yet there nro certain
Indications of renuhll rnn frnlna. 1,-lraf tYtnn
nro no voters who supported McKlnley four
on-nrs ugo wno nro now supporting Brynn,
whllo on tho other hand there aro hundreds
who voted for Bryan In the last presidential
election who nro ardent supporters of Mc
Klnley now. These people are to bo met
with In every county In tho state, nnd I feel
qulto certain that they aro sufficient In num
ber tO mOrO thall OVprrnmn thn Mrvan mn.
Jorlly of four years ago. Republican gains
iuib year win come irom nil classes; the pco
plo recognize that Mr. Bryan Is not a pro
found statesman nnd they feel thnt tho des
tiny or this country must not be placed In
the hands of n man lacking In experience
und who depend entirely on theories of
government instead of practical and well
tried methods. It Is safo to say that tho
people of our state are satisfied and want no
change.
.MIM.ike In I'nlil Ixlii-tl FlRtiri-a,
"There Is a misunderstanding on the
part ot tho public regarding tho vote of
Wyoming In 18t. The World Almanac
und Encyclopedia gives Bryan's plurality
aa 583 and on this baBls politicians havo
figured. This Is wrong according to the
biennial report of the secretary of stnte
ot Wyoming tor 1S95-C. Tho average plu-
tallty for tho Bryan electoral ticket was
254. The lowest on tho Bryan ticket bad
a plurality over tho highest on tho McKln
ley ticket of sixty-six. Highest on tho
Bryan ticket had a plurality over the low
est on McKlnley ticket of 378. Taking tho
average plurality for Bryan ns given by
tho World Almanac, 683 Is a mistake.
Bryan gets credit for 329 votes which he
did not receive. , Tho main Issuo In that
election was 16 to 1, but this Is eliminated
this' year, ns the silver Issue Is dead In
Wyoming. It will be a square fight with
expansionists oil one side and anti-cxpan-slonlsts
on tho other; that Is, 'Shall we
pull down the flag In the Philippines or
keep It where our soldiers and sailors have
placed It?'
"Tho peoplo of tho west and especially of
Wyoming nro expansions' s. They regard the
placid waters of the Pacific as an American
lake and tho Orient as a market for west
ern products. Tho new merchant marine
which Is to bo built on tho Pacific coast will
be supplied with Wyoming coal which the
Dlngley tariff has brought Into tho mar
ket. Western farm products will be carried
to tho Pacific islands and continents be
yond. Western iron will bo used In the
construction of railroads In tho Oriental
countries, Wyoming peoplo aro too pro
gressive, too Intelligent and too patriotic
to be caught and frightened by the cry of
"imperialism," Thut term was invented to
scare Ignornnt people, of which there nro a
few In Wyoming. Tho democrats arc Ig
noring tho tnrlff question, but notwithstand
ing It will be In tho campaign In this state,
ns tho peoplo aro thoroughly educated on
this point and have realized that this may
mean moro to tbcm than ever, consequently
this will influence the vote to a very large
extent."

talned by Prince Yungcdo therefore gnvc
nun mno concern, although ho expressed
some Interest In It. He said there was no
Chinese Prince Yungedo. It Is not a Chlnoso
name. It might be, the minister thought, a
Japanese name, but, personally, he knew of
no such person.
Yiinurilo Is ,nt Iviioivn.
At tho Japanese legation the dispatch
or Admiral Remcy was read, nullo natur
ally, with the deepest Interest. There, too,
It was said that Yungcdo was not a Chinese
namo. No Japuneso official of that name
wns known to tho legation attaches. Their
solution of the question raised by tho dis
patch was that the name should be Yung
Lu. He Is tho comronndcr-ln-chlef of the Im
perial Chinese troopa, and Is said to havo
strong pro-foreign Inclinations and sym
pathies. No conjecture was offered as to
tho reason for tho detention of tbo dowager
empress by hlni. Among Washington offi
clnls It Is regarded us hardly likely thut
the empress dowager Is being detained by
any Chinese official. If she bo In Peklu nt
this time she Is there probably of her own
accord. Tho nssertlon ot Minister Wu,
based upon official advices from his gov
ernment, nowevor. Is mo.it positive that
sho Is not In the city of Pokln.
Whllo no surprise wns evinced nt the
statement of Admiral Remey that the Inner
city was being bombarded, seme conceru
was expressed lest tho final stand of the
Chinese troops within what they regarded
ns most sacred precincts should prove a
very serious affair.
Pckln comprises possibly four cities In
one. in extent or nren it is about tho size
of Now York City. Tho four segments of
it nro tho Chinese city, tho Tartar city,
the Imperial city nnd tho Forblddon city.
The last Is tho "Inner city," mentioned
In Admiral Rcmey's dispatch, nnd Is the
residence of the emperor und tho seat of
tho Imperial court. Nobody Is allowed
within Its massive walls, except by spe
cial permission of the emperor or empress
dowager. Tho foreigners who havo entered
Its gates nro comparatively tew In uumhor.
The Imperial city Is occupied only by the
highest Chlunso officlnls and members and
attaches of tho Imperial court. Further
Information as to the reported bombard
ment will bo awaited with keen Interest.
CWN from Jnpiiiiesr Sou roc.
Late last night the Japanese minister
Mr. Takahlra. received the following ad
vices from tho Japnneso foreign office at
Toklo:
The Japanese consul at Che Poo wired
under date ot August 17 to tho following cf-
fucti
The foreign forces attacked on the east
ern side of Pekln Wednesduy morning. The
enemy obstlnutoly responded. In the en
gngemciit the Japanese blew up the Chlao
Yang gate and the Tung Chlh gate nf tin
Tartar city ,and succeeded In entering. In
tho meantime the other foreign forces en
tered the city by the Tung Plen gate. De
tachments wero sent Immediately to the
legations and opened communications. The
ministers and staffs wero found safe. Tho
Japanese loss wus over 100, Including three
olticers, namely. Captain Mlehllyo and
Lleutonnnt Watnnnbe, wounded, while
Lieutenant YnzuKI was Killed, Tlio Chi
nese loss Is computed at about 400.
Substantially tho Information contained
In tbo abovo dispatch was received by the
Associated Press yesterday direct trom
Toklo. It contains tho explicit and ro
assurlng statement thut "the ministers and
staffs were found safe."
It is moro direct and complete In detail
than the American advices thus far ic-
celved. Tbo officials of tbo Japuneso lega
tion are much elated at tho spirited gal
lantry displayed by tho mikado's forces
during the ndvanco upon Pekln and they
havo received with unconcealed pride the
congratulations of not only tho officials of
this government, but also ot the diplomatic
repiebeutatlves ot other countries at this
capital.
