When repeated knocks at the suicide’s room brought no answer an entrance was forced. On the lied, fully dressed, with the exception of his coat and shoes, lay the body of the occupant of the apartment. His head rested on the pillow, which had become soaked with blood from the bullet wound behind his right ear. There was nothing to tell why the man put an end to his life, but this telegram was found on the table in
the room:

SM AI.I.KOX AT WAI.KKKTON.
Riicse official accounts of tlie progress of the war between China and Japan are first published in the press of the latter country and then get them telegraphed here. The Chinese»have by their disgrnceful mendacity in the Kow Shing affair, and their refusal to transmit any telegram which docs not glorify them and mislead the public as to their true condition, cut themselves off from all chance of their reports being believed by people who want to get at the truth.”
FaIUhI to T»ke Advantage.
The revised treaty between Japan and England was ratified at Tokio, Aug. 25. For the first time the United States has failed to take advantage of Japan’s desire to treat primarily with the great republic in international transactions. The opinion expressed in Japan is that negotiations at Washington might have been concluded long ago if the state department had been disjiosed to act upon Japanese proposals. As it is Great Britain stands ahead in the enactment of the treaty which the Asiatic empire has lieen urgently striving for more than 20 years to secure. On the previcms occasion the business was nearly brought to a conclusion by Count Okum, hut at the last moment his plans were defeated by the violent public demonstrations in Japan against his method of adjusting the vexed question of the judiciary.
Of No Immediate Benefit.
It was, therefore, thought expedient to keep these latter negotiations strictly secret and to allow none of the proposed conditions to become a subject of impulse discussion until the affair was absolutely terminated. The announcement first made by the emperor was a surprise to every one, though vague rumors of what was contemplated had been circulated during the past few weeks. The treaty confers no immediate advantages on Japan. At least five years must ( lapse before it goes into operation and it is for Japan to say whether or not the intervals shall be longer, but until 18!H) everything must remain as it is now. The purpose of this delay is that Japan shall perfect her judicial system to an extent warranting the abolishment of English law courts. The existance of foreign tribunals is one of Japan’s chief grievances and this, so far as Great Britain is concerned, will cease at the appointed time. The other grievance, interference with the tariff, will lie done away with until DUO, when complete autonomy may In- resumed by the simple process of terminating the treaty.
Average Duties.
But from IKON, or whatever date the Japanese sign for the agreement to come in force 11 years later, when it may be cancelled by either party, a partially new tariff will be adopted somewhat more favorable to Japan than that which now regulates her commerce, hut not strikingly so. The import duties now collected average 5 jut cent ad valorem. Under the new British schedule the average is estimated at from 6 to S Jier cent. Only 29 articles, some of which are subdivided as to make the total appear 39, are raised above the former rates. Of these, silks and sole leather are fixed at loper cent. The injury, including parrinne oil, are fixed at 10 per cent. The actual computation, however, will not lie ad valorem. By a supplementary convention specific duties will 1m applied on the basis of average prices as shown by the customs returns for six months. _
