pnblic It makes a straicht cnt between the two nearest points of undoubted Argentine and Brazilian territory, and entirely destroys three strategic lines that the Argentines had built with great care. Secretary of State Blaine has feent out circulars to all ministers and consuls, possibly in South America, certainly in Brazil, requesting information in rcgard to the means of extending American trade in their localities. Asmost of these officials are new men. they will naturally require somo time to get tho desired information. The consul-general at Kio, Mr. Oliver H. Dockery, is very assiduous in his efforts to comply with Mr. Blaine's request." All commercial drummers are asked to give their opinion, and each opinion thus obtained is made into a dispatch. If American trade is to make headway in Brazil, great improvement in the mail service isdemanded. Iho mails from the United States are now very irregular. They aro supposed to come every three weeks, hut, as a general rule, it is from fonr to six or seven weeks before a letter mailed in the United States reaches its destination in this country. The most expeditious way now is to send letters by way of England. RAILWAYS IN CHINA.

Russia's Siberian Line Will Torre the Celestial to Build a System of Their Own. Kew York, April 8. A Shanghai correapondet of the Herald writes as follows: The imperial fiat has gone forth blocking the prospects of Chang Chihtung's railway from the sacred city to the great emporium of the Yangtsze. famous alike for its velvets and its teas, Hankow. There is, however, a growing feeling that the time is ripe for railway building on a large scale in China. It is not, it mnstbo remembered, because the high authorities in the empire are in favor of such a revolution as a widespread system cf railways -would necessarily bring about, or that their ideas have so far advanced that they wish to see their old modes of traveling by Sedan chairs through two footpaths, and picturesque boats through winding creeks and canals, superceded by tho snorting steed of the Westerns. No, tho general spirit of the Mandarinato is just what it was a century ago; but in the saxno way as China has been driven to supplant its ancient fleets of unwieldy junks by iron-clads and smartlooking gun-boat3, because the "foreign devils" jnst half a century ago showed the pig-tailed race how feeble their old-fashioned modes of warfare were against those of modern Europe, so the .ruling class in China are to-day convinced that if the old leviathan among nations does not wake up and bestir herself she will ere long fall to pieces from sheer inability to exist in the altered condition of Asia. Until Knssia began to build . the great system of railways, which is slowly spreading itself 'over the whole of northern and cen-. tral Asia, the Chinese statesmen held it treason to hear tho bare name of railways, uttered in connection with their ancient, secluded and haughty empire. But now' that the iron horse, panting under his heavy load of Russian soldiery, comes right tip to her western frontier1 and the shining steel arms of the octopus are beginning to stretch out along her northern confines over Siberia to tho ocean, the startled advisers of tho young occupant of the dragon ' throne are convinced that they must-bo up and stirring, and that the only way offering a prospect or success is to meet the threatening invader with his own weapons. For the last year or two the mediaevallooking warriors who guard the northern frontier of China have been sending dispatches and memorials to their chiefs in Pekin containing accounts of the strange preparations and maneuvers which are ' taking place in the adjacent territories of the Czar; of the numerous parties of 'llussian engineers who are surveying over frozen rivers, snowy hills and barren steppes with strange, suspicious and evillooking instruments and appliances; of the vast quantity of timbec and iron which is being transported eastward and southward from the great rivers by tho graycoated Russian soldiery, and all of which the high Chinese olticera have at last been reluctantly compelled to believe mean nothing else than tho commencement of the operations of the monster they have long been - dreading the trans-Siberian railway which is to unite the vast possessions of the Czar from Euxine to tho Pacific with bands of steel. I have it from the highest authority that this spring will see that line begun in earnest. Great preparations are being made in the collection of material at the various points along the road, and the route is at present overrun with Russian engineering officers, who are working nnder the direction of General Annenkoff and tho Governors of the provinces of Asuri and Eastern Siberia. A traveler who recently came over the route assured me that Baron Von Rosen, at Irkutsk, with wnom he had a long talk, is sanguine of being able to commence operations about April next, and further, that it is the intention to begin the line at Tomsk, Stretinsk and Vladivostock simultaneously. I am convinced that the object of all the recent Russian coquetting with Corea and the secret trading treaties with that wretched country was in connection with the coming railway in the hopes of obtaining a port on the Pacific which would be free from ice all the year around. Such a port Russia will get by hook or crook. It is necessary for the working of the railway and for the efficiency of her large fleet in these waters, and get it she in nut. We know how near it she was four or live years ago. With the Knssian railway along her northern border, and lapping around her alleged vassal state, Corea, there is nothing for China but to keep pace with her dreaded northern neighbor. For this reason I say that the Russians are the great civilizing and progressive inlluenceupon China. "When the Muscovites commence their railway the sound of their picks will be promptly echoed back by those of the Chinese navvies on a counter lino. The people in Pekin are fully alive to the seriousness of what their situation will be when the Siberian railway is un fait accompli. Now they are merely holding back till they are forced to commence similar operations on their own account by the convincing argument of looking to their own preservation. cusw to "jack ran iurrER." A Revolting Crime In Prussia Treads to the Arrest of Thirty Chinamen. London, April 8. The barbarous murder of Helena Montana, a disreputable woman, at Hobersthat, near Aix-la-Chapelle, has created great excitement. The woman was killed in some mysterious manner in the open street under the eyes of passers-by. The throat was cut from ear to ear. The body was disemboweled and othorwise mutilated after the fashion of "Jack the Ripper." The unfortunate woman was drinking with a Chinaman all tho afternoon in a low den, and the pair parted apparently ou friendly terms. It is supposed that the Chinaman subsequently laid in wait for and ninrdervd her. When tho body was found at midnight the blood lay in stagnant pools on the pavement all around it. No outcries were heard by those living in the vicinity, and none of the neighbors conld throw a particle of light on the mysterv. The police arrested thirty laborers of the Chinese colony on suspicion of having been accessory to the murder. The London police department is much interested in tnis crime on account of its similarity to the murders committed by -Jack the Ripper." and sent det-ctives vesterday to trace the scenes of the last Whitechapel murder, taking details of the Hobersthat murder along with them for comparison. A reporter who accompanied the officers created great excitement by relating the story of the Hobersthat outrage, aud women and children Hocked about him. expressing "their hopes that Jack was at last discovered. IIAHE3I INMATES SLAUGHTERED. Eighteen Decapitated Hodies Found In a Box at a MoorUh Shipping Port Madrid, April S.' A horrible story comes from Morocco. A largo box was recently brought from tho interior to the port of Mazagan for shipment. When opened, a ghastly sight was revealed. In tho box. packed closely together, wero the bodies of sixteen young women, one man and a negress. All the bodies had been decapitated, and their heads wero missing. The bodies were embalmed, and had evidently been in the condition in which thny were &uud for a long time. The slaughter had

been, to all appearance, the work of some pasha, who thus visited vengeance on his harem for unfaithfulness. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS.

CHICAGO LABOR TROUBLES. Carpenters Fighting for Recognition of Their Union Plumbers Strike Settled. CniCAGO, April 8. About iifty non-union carpenters from the surrounding towns went to work this morning, but they were visited by the strikers and labored with, with the result that they quit work. Tho struggle now seems to be narrowed down to recognition or non-recognition of the union. Tho carpenters demand 40 cents per- hour, eight hours as a day's work and the yearly settlement upon a scale of waes by conference between the builders and the carperters union. Tho bosses are willing to concedo the demand for eight hours, and to pay 372 cents per hour, which the men would accept as a compromise; but the bosses absolutely refuse to recognize the union, and the men refuse to treat on any other basis except its recognition. It is believed that no further action will be taken in the matter, at least until Thursday night, when the builders will hold their regular weekly meeting. There was a hitch this morning in the negotiations for a settlement of tho plumbers' strike, as the juniors objected to a reduction in their demand for an advance of 50 cents per day in their wages to 25 cents. The arbitration committees were in session dnnng the forenoon, and this afternoon signed tho articles of settlement. The agreement is to run for two years from Feb. 1 last: journeymen to receive 3.eo per day. instead of Sa.75, for which they struck, and juniors to get 25 cents per day advance, except in shops where it is customary to gTaut them an annual advance in wages. The men are well satisfied with the terms reached, and work will bo resumed to-morrow. The cigar-makers have won their fight,
