Hickman and Samuel Reck. The motion was made by , Rev. J. II. Cissell.

JAPANESE IN CORE A

HOW THEY IFLt'EXCED THE KING TO BREAK VITII CHINA. Some of the Reforms to Re Introduced In the Country The Little Republic of Andorra. YOKOHAMA. Aug. 24.-Since the last dispatch of news to America, circumstances have occurred which throw much light on the long-disputed question as to which side in the war was favored by the Kins of Corea. The lower classes in that country have no opinions on political subjects. If the middle classes .have any, they are not allowed to express them. Even the aristocracy have learned the necessity of keeping silence, If their views are opposed to those of the governing body. The only voice hitherto heard has been that of the Ministry, a corrupt monarchy, composed of the Ming family and their dependents, who are completely under the control of China. It has been to their interest to represent that the sovereign was heartily in accord with them, and until the last few weeks their assurances to this, effect have been generally accepted as true. The Queen, who is a blood relation of the Mings, 13 undoubtedly under the influence of China, and as she 19 understood to be greatly superior to her consort In intellect and force of character, her power to impress her Ideas upon him has been easily credited. That the Mings acted really in the Kingjs name and with his sanction was not seriously questioned up to the time when the Chinese diplomatic agent in Seoul deserted his post and left the court free from surveillance. Then the Japanese envoy received a message from the King's father suggesting that If an Interview could be arranged In the palace his jon could be Induced to recognize the justice and friendliness of Japan's intention without much difficulty. The King's father, officially known as the Tal Won Kun, was at one period the regent of the country, but through the intrigues ot the Mings he was deposed some ten years ago and condemned to a long captivity. After his liberation he was forbidden to approach the court, but that he kept a watchful eye upon the course of events Is proved by tne accuracy of his statement respecting the sovereign. The Japanese envoy at once insisted upon meeting the monarch personally and under conditions that should enable him to speak his mind without restraint. Being denied this privilege by royal advlters be determined to present himself with an armed escort, and Fent for a detachment from the Japanese forces outside the city. As this small guard passed by the palace on the way to the envoy's residence it was fired upon by Corean soldiers in the service of the Mings. These, ehots fettled the fate of the Ministry. Tne native troop were dispersed with scarcely a struggle, and an hour later the representative of Japan was In amicable conversation with the fccvereign, who did not hesitate to declare that ho had been under coercion ever since the beginning of the imbroglio with China, and that he was far from feeling the hostility toward Japan which his government had publicly attributed to him. In token ot his sincerity he had already rid himself of his late council and summoned the Tal Won Kun to assist him in forming a new administration. Before the day was over a Cabinet made up of radical opponents of the Ming faction had been installed, with the lal Won Kun as Prune Minister, and a committee of seventeen appointed to reorganize the administrative system and reform the national laws upon a basis recommended by Japan. Such activltj' and energy had never before been witnessed since the foundations of the Corean monarchy were laid. When the Japanese army, after its light 'with the Chinese at Asan, returned victorious to Seoul, bringing with it the captured arms and standards, the King sent a deputy to welcome and congratulate it. He has appointed a. commissioner to visit Japan and thank the Mikado for the promise of peace and a stable government to 'his country, and he 'has formally renounced the suzerainty of China and proclaimed his intention to. assert his Independence and equality in all future dealings wltn that nation. Unless Japan fails utterly in ttte war, the vassalage of the past will never be renewed. The political and social reforms whlcli Japan demands are designed not only to prevent China from interfering hereafter, but also to give rhe whole- people of Corea opportunity and power to Improve their condition and to prepare the country for the Introduction of Western civilization. Several of them have already been decreed and put in force. "These arc: The adoption of a new royal title, which, though still meaning King in. English, shall carry with It r.o significance of inferiority to a higher monarchy, as was prevlously tho case; the establishment of a thorough diplomatic, service, under which ministers shall Iwn snt to all the treaty states; the eligibility to office of all classes, without distinction of rank; restrictions upon public expenditures and periodical announcement of the expenses and disbursements; reduction In the number of national employes; absolute freedom of. religious belief: abolition of slavery and all kinds of enforced labor; prohibition of cruel or excessive punishment and immediate abrogation of rhe law 'permitting punishment of the entire family of a criminal, however innocent; authorization, of widows to remarry and persons to marry according to their chclce, without compulsion. Other reforms are under consideration, and every citizen Is permitted to offer the committee proposals for the general welfare. Japan feels deeply the Imputation In Secretary Gresham's message through the United States minister in Tokio that the Mlkarirt is levvlne war on a weak and defenseless nation, but expresses the hope that Americans In general comprehend that the war Is with China, and is waged on behalf of, and not against, the Coreans. FREXCII YOKE THROW.V OFF. Dictatorship Assumed liy the Rnler of the Tiny Republic of Andorrn. PERPIGNAN, France, Sepr. 6. The people of Andorra are In a state of great excitement. Tne Bishop of Urgel has issued a pastoral letter claiming that he Is sole ruler of Andorra and that he will no longer admit the suzerainty of France. Andorra Is a neutral country with the name of a republic, situated on the south slope cf the Pyrenees, between the French department of Arlego and the Spanish province of LorIda. Its area Is about fifteen squire miles. Andorra's government consists of twentyfour consuls elected by the population, wnich -numbers 12.000. Up to the present Andorra has been subject to the suzerainty of France and of the Bishop of Urgel, the Independence of the little state dating back to the time of Charlemagne in 7lK. The Inhabitants of Andorra are mostly shepherds, who speak the Catalan language. Yachtsman Gonld Criticised. LONDON, Sept. 6. The same spirit which was manifested when the crowds around Ryde and Cowes maintained a sullen silence when the Vigilant beat the Britannia continues to manifest Itself in some of the English papers. For instance, the Westminster Gazette this afternoon, referring to the misfortunes of the American yacht and her owners, remarks: "Mr. Gould can hardly have considered that he comes out of the business well. The Trince of Wales, It Is obvious, has suffered annoyance from the manner in which he was treated, and it is perfectly intelligible that Mr. Gould was compelled to accept precisely that favor from the Princo of Wales which he himself declined to concede when the Prince of Wales wished to lay up his boat. It is a humiliating position, and It is hard to regard Mr. Gould's position with much sympathy. Moreover, it is the hanky-panky manner In which the .incident was kept dark which does not recommend itself to British notions." The Cznr's Illness. LONDON, Sept. C A dispatch to the Dally News from Vienna states that a letter received in that city from St. Petersburg says that the Czar's present illness excites public attention as much as did his Illness seven months ago. That so ir.ucCi mystery Is made of the character of his complaint Is considered extraordinary. The Czar went to Bialowurz when everything had been prepared for his reception at Spala. His Majesty usually strongly objects to medical treatment, but he is now accompanied by Dr. Zaccharin. The liturgy read in the churches on Sundays now contains a passage referring to the Czar's health, which was added last January when he was very 111. Rebellion In Yinesueln. NEW YORK. Sept. 6.-The Red D lina steamer Venezuela arrived to-day from Venezuelan ports, bavins left Laguayra.

Aug. 2L A very unsettled state of things apparently exists in the principal cities of Venezuela. Several prominent citizens appear to be greatly dissatisfied with the government. President Crespo was reported quite ill. but no one was allowed to see him. He is in fear of assassination, never appearing in public without a iarge escort of cavalry. An encounter between three hundred revolutionists and nine hundred government troops is said to have taken place near Ciudad Bolivar on' Aug. 20, in which, after some desperate fighting, the; rebels .vere defeated. Another Papal Encyclical. ROME, Sept. 6. The Pope is preparing an encyclical letter addressed to the bishops and people of the United States. The document has been under consideration ever since the visit of Archbishop Ireland to Rome, and it will shortly be Issued. The letter will announce the absolute supremacy of the apostolic delegate in church

: atters in the United States. lth the simple right of appeal to the -ope. The apostolic delegate will take the place of the Propaganda Fide in directing religious affairs in the United States. The encyclical will not deal with schismatic questions. Chief Nana to Re Punished. LONDON, Sept. 6. The recent collisions with Chief Nana's tribesmen at the mouth of the Benin river. West Africa, during which several English subjects were killed or wounded, has decided the government to send gunboats to punish Chief Nana, The trouble arises out of the opposition of the natives of Benin to British traders.

Senator Wilkinson Call, of Florida, has been smitten cruelly in the house of his friends, and the blow was one that could have been dictated only by a feeling: of gnu-some and malignant hatred or by a swart, sable spirit or insatiable envy. Girded with ineffable majesty, crowned with the gaudy garlands of victory, sternly erect in tne proud consciousness of holding the senatorial championship belt for eiernal verbosity, Mr. Call returned from the national capital to his palatial home In Jacksonville only to receive the news that he had been rnade the victim of a treasonable thrust on the part of the regular Demo crats or oriando, in his State.. But one parallel presents Itself from history fit to be compared with this outrageous assault upon the Florida Senator. When Caesar, at the very height of his power and glory, fell a victim to the deadly thrust of Erutus's dagger, his fate was not unlike that which has overtaken the wordy Wilkinson by the venomous treachery of the regular Democrats of Orlando. Until this week the general public had been Ignorant of the existence of Orlando. That little hamlet had been content to pursue a lot of peace, quiet and contentment under the clear Florida sky, and made no effort to rival Jacksonville or Palatka In the attention of "the outside world; but by the agency of the press dispatches the name of Orlando has been carried across the continent, and the regular Democrats of that village are responsible for this change. Fame, she of the keen eys and long arms, ins swooped down upon the simple village of Orlando, and has caught the regular Democrats in her tenacious grasp; and all because of a resolution that was passed at the annual convention of the regular Democracy of Orlando. According to the prest reports the resolution read: s "Resolved, That we approve th altitude of our senior United States Senator on a recent occasion, when he elevated his feet above his head during th? deliberations of 'the most august body f ;nen in the world. Having demonstrated by fifteen years of service that his head carries no weight in shaping the affairs of the Nation, he did well to try the other extreme." The English language Is tod weak to be used in denunciation of the malice which promoted such an attack upon Mr., Call. The Democrats of the State should rally to the Fupport of their leader, whose staying powers as an orator "against time" have already marked him as a Southern statesman. No consideration should be shown to the man nnd malicious Democrats of Orlando, and we suggest that as a fit punishment for si'di an outburst of unprovoked spite Mr. Cail be taken to Orlando and ba allowed to make a fifteen-hour speech. This may reem cruel to the Orlando Democrats, but they deserve no milder fate. POLITICAL P510P1IECY. Prediction 'Written !' Erlckson In 1N!W nnd Xow Mnde Public. Pitt3burg Commercial Gazette. The cuner.t number of the Arena contains a forecast of the administration of President Cleveland made by Julius Kricksjn In 1S3J. Daring the tnird week of M?.rch of that year It was given to the editor of the Arena, but he deferred publishing it until the present. It reads very much like propnecy. After locating the various signs and noting the significance of each, he said: "As before observed, the variable signs hold the four cardinal points. This is an evil testimony for the stability and endurance of the Democratic party and is an equally bad testimony for the policy of the administration. 4 "The President's judgment In many cases will be decidedly at variance "with the policy which the public will expect to emanate from the head of the Democratic party, which will be the cause of producing some extremely unpleasant conditlonn, and sharp criticisms not entirely calculated to multiply his earthly pleasures, and he will have a far more troublesome, annoying, disappointing and anxiously vexatious time of it than any President has had since Lincoln." After noting numerous events that ware casting their shadows before, he goes on to say that as for Cleveland personally his administration will be marked by his success in his endeavors to carry , out against heavy odds whatever he undertakes to do. but the public will dissent in various ways. Tne house of Congress will not be very kindly disposed towards him on account of the position of Mars on the cusp of the eleventh house, and .iuat when he thinks he can fully rely on his friends therein for support there is an extreme liability of their utterly falling him. and so creating unlooked-for disaster to the administration. The terrible things in store for the administration and tne party are thus set forth: "But In 1S93 the clouds bejln to lower. This will be an extremely disastrous period; affairs go wrong, personal friends prove false, treachery and disappointment show their gaunt ana haggard teatures in every corner rind trouble boils the kettle. His administration begins to lack that forcefulness the people eiect. Though occasionally brilliant coups d'etata will serve to lighten the gloom, nevertheless the fullness of success is lacking and the lines of time draw close to the end. But the most disastrous time of the whole will eventuate in 1895. and the close of his term will witness the most startling changes In the political history of the United States." After foretelling the organization of an entirely new party he concludes with the following prediction: "The Democratic party will fall to elect Its candidate in JS06 if it places one In the field." IHMAX SACRIFICES I RUSSIA. Attempts to Abollvh the Practice Revelations of a Newspaper. New York Tribune. It is probably known to few people that the practice ot sacrificing human lives under certain conditions still exists in parts of the empire of Russia. The government and the orthodox cnurch have attempted in vain to stop the Inhuman practices, but up to the present time they have been unsuccessful. Revelations regarding the custom were made in recent issues of the Gazette of Yakootsk. . Siberia. It prevails among a sect known as the "Tshukshen," not far from that city. Old people, beyond the biblical limit as to age. and sick ones, tired of life, offer themselves as the sacrifices. When a "Tshukshe" decides to "offer himself up," he sends words to all his relatives, friend3 and neighbors, who then visit him and try to persuade him to change his intentions. But prayers, upbraidings, threats are useless In such a case, and the fanatic prepares for his end. The friends and relatives leave his house and return in ten to fifteen days, bringing the death candidate white doming and several weapons, with which he is supposed to defend himself in the other world against evil spirits and shcot reindeer. After completing his death toilet, the candidate takes his place In a corner of his house or hut. About him gather his relatives, who offer him the choice of three instruments of death a knife, a spear and a rope. If he chooses the knife, two friends hold his arms while a third plunges tne blade into his breaJt. Practically the same thing is done If he decides to die by the spear. When he prefers the rope, two of those present phce It about his neck and strangle him to death. A cut Is then made in the breast to let the blood flow out. All those present sprinkle their faces and hands with the blood, believing that it will preserve them from evil and bring them fortune. The body, after this ceremony, is placed on a sled, which fs drawn by a reindeer to tne "cremation hilt." near the village. The neck of the animal Is cut at once upon arrival at the place. The body is stripped

of clothing, which Is then cut In small pieces and placed on the altar with the dead man or woman. During the cremation the "mourners" utter prayers to the spirits, begging th?m to watch over those mortals still left tn earth. This custom has been followed tne sect for centuries. NOT ASIATIC CHOLERA

SURG EO X'GGXERA L WYMAVS VIEW OF THE CUMBERLAND CASE. Immigrant "Wnlther Wnn Inspected nt New York, nnd He Sailed from a Xonlnfected Port. NEW YORK. Sept. 6. Nothing Is known at quarantine in relation to the supposed case of cholera at Cumberland, Md. The steamer Elbe arrived during Monday night, and early Tuesday morning the steerage passengers were all carefully Inspected and found well. Capt. Von Goessel and the ship's surgeon made no report of any sickness during the voyage. Gustav Schwab, agent for the Xorth German Lloyd Steamship Company, on whose steamer the alleged cholera victim was a passenger, scouts the Idea that Walther had cholera. "Had it been Asiatic cholera," said Mr. Schwab, "the disease would have made its appearance long before. The period of incubation is seldom more than six days, and so either Walther or the person from whom he contracted the disease should have developed it on the steamer." Snrjreon-Gencrnl Wyninn Views. WASHINGTON, Sept. 6. A telegram was received to-day by Surgeon-general Wyman, of the Marine Hospital Service, from Health Officer Duke, of Cumberland. Md.. announcing the death there last night of John P. Walther. a German Immigrant, with symptoms-pointing to Asiatic cholera. Dr. Wyman wired the officer to hold a post-mortem and report the results. Dr. Wyman said; "I do not believe that this man died of Asiatic cholera. There is now no cholera in Bremen, the port from which he Is said to have come, and has been none. There has been no disease found among the other men from the Elbe now detained at Pittsburg, being held for further developments." "What is the situation with regard to the disease in Europe?" was asked. "It Is rather on the increase in Russia, and Is getting over Into western Europe, but so far has been confined to the most southern portions of that coast, and Is most prevalent In Austro-Hungary. This has keDt it away from the ports whence the immigrants come to these shores, and as there is a rigid consular inspection ' on that side, as well as a most thorough quar antine service on this, I am absolutely cer tain that no case of cholera has got into America this year. There have been 'two case3 caught at quarantine, but they have not amounted to anything. It will be prac-. tically Impossible for an epidemic unless there is a relaxation of vigilance on the part of health officers and consols." Immlirrnntn Quarantined. PITTSBURG, Sept. C The emigrant car from which a ' suspected victim of cholera was taken at Cumberland, Md., last night. Is now side-tracked at Shauer Station, a few miles from here on the Baltimore & Ohio. Nine immigrants are confined in the car. Pr. J. M." McCandlees. member of the State Board of Health, and Heilth Officer Bakr examined the suspects to-day. They think the man who died was suffering from cholera morbus or cholerine. To avoid any risks, however, the car will be kept in quarantine for another twenty-four hours at least. - . V 1 3Inny Cnew I ninths. LONDON, Sept. I dispatch to the Times from Vienna a: In Gilicia yesterday there were ICO tww cases of cholera and ninety-four deaths, and In Bukowlna nine cases and seven deaths. The central sanitary council announces that since the beginning . of the cholera epidemic there have been 5,367 cases of the disease and 2.700 deiths In Clallcia, and 519 cases and 300 deaths In Bukowina. nifg HnnlncBM at Mnnlintlon Itench. W. E. Curtis, In Chicago Record. I told the other day about the big business that had been done by some of the summer hotels on the scicoast this season. Since then I have seen the manager of the Manhattan Beach Hotel, who ti 11 rre that the record of all time was beaten at his house on the Fourth of July hist, when over 22.C00 p-rsons were fed in the restaurant a la carte, and that the dally average since that date ha been over ten thousand, which 4s greater than high-water mark In 193. On Saturdays the patronage has reached 12.W) and 15,01)0, and on Sundays from lfi.CCO to 20,000, according to the weather. The lowest" daily report since July 1 from the restaurant showed 4.0C0 visitors, and that was a rainy Monday. Over 2.500 persons can be seated In the restaurants at the same time. and they are served by over fix hundred waiters and cooks. There are three bars connected with the house, where returns vary from Jl.SCK) to $3,00 a .day each. At one there are twelve barkeepers constantly on duty. There are over 730 employes 4n the house, of whom about fifty are laundresses. The returns from the bath houses vary from $1,000 to Si.OOO a day. according to the temperature, and have been double this year what they were last. A Trump Card that Failed. New York Sun. The Democratic candidate for Governor (ly Vermont) was George Washington Smith, of Smithfleld, on the Smith turnpike. Appeal was made, unavallingly, as the early returns from the s?at of strife show, to the family spirit of the Smiths. This wa3, so to speak, the trump Democratic card in Vermont In a year when, as everybody understands, collateral, unusual and unforeseen Side Issues are the thing to break up and overpower the Republicans. Here was a skillfully chosen side issue, quite apart from the tariff, the income tax, foreign relations, or the Sugar Trust, th? Issue of Smith. But It didn't work. The Republican Smiths of Vermont held aloof from their family namesake, even with the patriotic prefix of George Washington. Th?v did not vote for him, despite the determination ol the Smith family of the United States, in convention not long ago, to hold together; and so it happens that, like the light which failed, candidate Smith, with the whole Democracy of Vermont back of him, was snuffed out. One View of the Matter. New York Evening Post. The truth is that the feeling against Mr. Pullman is mostly personal, tie carries his head too high. He does not see some people even when they are directly In ,his w?.y. A m?n may bestow all his goods to feed the poor, yet If he does not aprear to t?ke a personal Interest In them they will be very likely to hate him and will construe sll doubtful, points to his disadvantage Classifying Them. New York Tribune. Among the Republican campaign documents sent out thi3 year there should b? two notably effective paper. The first, the President's letter to Representative Wilson, ought to be entitled "Duty." and the second, his letter to Mr. Catchings, entitled "How to Dodge It."
