THE RCUANTON TRIBUNE-MONDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 24, 1894. UPRISING IN MANCHURIA Mohammedans Are Becoming Active in That Territory. CHINESE METHODS OF TOKTl'KE Japanese Prisoners of War .Are Burned nt tbo Stake 'and Dolled Alivc-Tlie apacus 'Warriors Surpassed by the Ingenuity of .Mongolian. py the Vnlted Fress. . London, Dpt. 23 A dispatch from Tientsin to the Central News say it l! reported there that an uprising has tak en plaice among the Mohammedans In Manchuria. San FranclBcu, Dee.23 A private let ter from Tokio says that there will be jio peace until the Japanese enter Pekin. From an official high in autrorlty tine correspondent learns that If a Chinese embassy, should come to Japan with overtures of peace the Japanese would insist upon the occupation of the Chi nese capital as one of the terms, and and the Chinese will agree to tills. It Is learned from good authority that, besides the ldemnlty already indicated, the Japanese will demand the penin sula on which Port Arthur is situated und t'he islund of Formosa. The Chi nese will agree to this, as they are pow erless, and they also fear a revolution by the two big secret societies, the Ka lao Hul and the White Lily. The foreign advisers of Vleroy LI-Hung-Chang made a fortune in supply dngpoorarms to the Chinese army. Most of the Chinese rifles captured by the Japanese were of "untliiuuted make, and it lie ammunition did not lit the guns. It is' said that Detrlng ami Von Hanncken will be able to retire with several mil lions apiece nt the close of the war. Other correspondents at Toklo give Some details of the taking of Port Ar thur. The writers say they cannot give many details, as they are to horrible for publication. Capt. Harstow of the Jap 'unese Btnanidhip line, which runs along t'heooust, tells of many instances of Chi nese barbarity to Japanese prisoners of war. Just before the capture of Port Arthur a number of Japanese scouts tvere captured by the Chinese, who tor tured them. Some were burned at the stake. Others were boiled alive in big vats of hot water. When the Japanese entered Port Ar thur the sights they saw maddened them The Captain says no pen can describe the fearful mutilations practised upon the Japanese captives, lie says an Am erican who paw much of Apache war fare In Arizona declared that the Chi nese excelled those ravages in hideous ingenuity and in Infamous mangling of the dead. Over 800 of the Chinese garrison of Port Arthur were put to the sword be fore they pould escape, tiut theCaptaln declares that there Is no foundation for the statement that shopkeepers were phot. Some 200 soldiers and officers of Ll-IIung-Ohang's force escaped-In- a body from Port Arthur to Shan Hal Ka-wn un the main land but the Chinese resi dents, infuriated beonuse of the loss of Port Arthur, killed the officersand then tortured to death all the common sol diers. I I Hung Chang Is llulky. Washington, Dec. 2:!. It Is reported that Moukden has been deserted by the populace In view of the license exer cised by Chinese soldiers. There is also ne'ws .that Manchuria Is overrun by plundering deserters and that utter anarchy prevails. Another report Is that LI Hung Chang has refused to re turn to Pekin. from Tien Tsln to as sist Prince Rung and Prince Chlng In the administration of the war. The statement Is alfo made that arrange ments were completed In the latter part of November for moving the Chi nese court from Pekin. If the Japanese troops showed any disposition to reach the capital, the emperor was to leave at once. The probable place of retirement is given as Chang Chla Ken. Congratulatory demonstrations over Japanese victories have been held. in Japan. Patriotism Is still rampant nnd the noble families of Japan are making tontrlbutlons to the war fund. Do You know That no one In the city but Davldow Bros, ran sell you a set of solid silver teaspoons for 3.99? DOWN TO A BUSINESS BASIS. From the Detroit Free Press. He stepped out of a doorway on Mon roe avenue, the other night and con fronted a pedestrian to say: "Time is 'money and I will detain yon but a moment." "That's right what Is It?" was the query. i "You have no money for such as tne?" , "No, sir no, sir!" "Because I would mnke for the .near est saloon arid spend It for drink." , ' "That's It, exactly." J-:- "Hut, on the other hand, you are a humane man arid" would not gee me 1 Jn want of food iff! . , --" "I might be willing to (ill you up at a restaurant', but I'm not ljuying beer for tramps." ' "Certainly not. We now come o Busi ness. To All me up at the cheapest res taurant In this town would cost you from $6 to $8 as I ihave eaten nothing for a week.

And the tramp watched him out of flight and heaved a long sigh and whis pered to himself: "That's a horse on me, and I guess I'd butter look around for a saddle or harness!" 1XDISTRIAL TOPICS. The Central and Lehigh Valley rail roads have compromised their crossing dispute ait Allentown.. The Davis & Thomas Co., of Cjita sauqua has Just been chartered to manufacture Iron and steel. The Leesport furnace, which has been Idle three years, has started up, giving employment i to about sixty men. , The Delaware and Hudson company proposes to extend Its Adirondack branch thirty miles, from North Creek to Long Lake. Rabbi J. Leonard Levy, of Philadel phia, has started coal yeards to supply the poor with, fuel at cost. A bucket Is retailed at 5 cents. The usual price at this season of the year Is 8 cents a bucket. The work Is constantly on the Increase. In the brief period of opera tion, nearly 15,000 buckets of coal have already been sold. A doubt as to the re-election of President Harris, of the Reading rail road, has been dispelled by the official announcement from the Read ing office that proxies representing 300,000 shares had been received In sup port of Mr. Harris, and that proxies representing from 50.000 to 60.000 shares more were In sight. It Is further stated that wince the stock books closed fully 150,000 shares had become disfranchised by reason' of transfers, leaving about 650,000 shares that are entitled to vote. That President Harris will secure n large majority of these there appears to be no longer any doubt among the best-posted men on the street. Philadelphia Stockholder: "The be lief is now general that despite oppo sition, the present Lehigh Valley man agement will be maintained In power. Handicapped as it has been during the last few years It has, however, been able to accomplish much good for. security-holders. The so-called protec tive committee in opposition to the present management makes the an nouncement that a public meeting of stockholders will be held In this city this week, when it Is contemplated to fashion a ticket to be voted upon at the ensuing election a ticket which it was further stated will Include several members of the present board of direc tors. It is significant in connection with the opposition that City Treasurer McCreary, who was somewhat active at the beginning -of the contest, has withdrawn from further participation In it." Philadelphia Inquirer: "The com panies are maintaining tidewater prices firmly, and are even getting a few orders nt the new circular, but a considerable quantity of coal Is being peddled out by middlemen who pur chase largely before the advanced prices were establishes The individu al operators are not doing much. Com plaint Is made by customers of the Le high Valley that they find great dlffl culty In getting deliveries over the Reading tracks, as much as three weeks being required to get coal through. The Lehigh Valley, Lehigh Navigation and shippers over the New Jersey Central have practically sus pended mining operations for the year. The Reading will work three days this week, as R has not yet filled Its quota for the month. The New York compa nies are generally arranging to ob serve the allotment strictly. The ag gregate output, however, continues In excesss of the actual consumption." "It might be supposed," says the New York Sun, "that railroads which bear usually geographical name a would Bhow by their titles what points they connect, but there are many exceptions In this respect and some of them are surprising. The St. Louis nnd San Francisco railroad, for Instance, might be supposed to run from St. Louis to San Francisco. Actually It runs 327 miles west of St. Louis, The Minne apolis and St. Louis railroad would np- pear to run from Minneapolis to St Louis. It actually runs from Minne apolis to Angus, la., about half way to St. Louis. The Omaha and St. Louis railroad does not run from Omaha to St. Louis, but from Omaha to Pattons- burg. Mo. St. Louis is 267 miles further east. The Toledo, St. Louis and Kan sas City railroad (or "Clover Leaf, aa It Is more generally called) runs from Toledo to St. Louis, which Is the west ern terminus of the road. Kansas City Is 325 miles away. The Toledo, Peoria and Western rallroad does not run from Toledo to Peoria, but from the Indiana state line to Warsaw, III. The New York, Chicago. nnd St. Louis railroad (or Nickel Plate,-ns It is universally called) does not run from New York to Chicago and St. Louis. ' It runs from Buffalo to Chicago, nnd a passenger upon it coming, enst. and landing at lluffalo' would be over 400 miles from New York, while'a passenger upon It going' west and iandlng nt Chicago would be'SOO miles from. St, Louis. The Philadelphia . nd Erie railroad runs from Sunbury, Pa., to Erie. The Penn sylvania, ' Poughkeepsle and Boston railroad Is ninety-six miles long, from Slatlngton, Pa.,, to Campbell Hall, on the Ontario and Western. The Fort Worth and Denver City railroad Is wholly In Texas, does not touch Denver City, and does not run Into Colorado. These peculiarities In railroad nomen clature are supplemented by another. Allthecoul-carrylng roads running lntl tudlnnlly In the eastern states have as part of their title the words, "and Western." Here are some of them Delaware, Lackawanna and Western the New York, Lake Erie and Western. the New York, Ontario and Western FLESH AND DL0OE) AnSatifc the Lake -Erie and Western1; the Nor folk and Western; the New York, Sus quehanna and Western; the Pltsburg nd Western, The quantity of coal transported by these railroads colleo Mvely amounts to more than 50,000,000 tons In a year." The Sun overlooks one queerly named road, the "New York, Pittsburg nnd Chicago," which, so far from traversing the 900 miles suggested Ul Us title, runs from New Clalllee, Pa., Kast Liverpool, O., a distance of seventeen miles.
