POSTER GIVES AX 0PIXI0X His Views of the run tern Situation as Recorded by a I tilted l'rc Ke-porter-Jupau's Treaty Benson-ahle-KusMla's Interference. Washington. July 8 In conversation with a reporter for Wie United Tress this afternoon. John W. Foster was asked for his opinion of the prospects of permanent peace between China ami Jjpan as the result of the treaty of Shimonosekl. He replied: 'There Is good reason to expect permanent peace between the two em pires. The terms demanded by. Japan may. under the circumstances, be re garded as reasonable, especially In view of the retrocession of tht Lino Tung peninsula. Hie treaty has been ob served und carried out by China with scrupulous good faith. Her conduct In this respect has created a very favor able Impression In Japan. "if a rupture occurs It Is more likely to be brought about by the Inter meddling of the Kuropean powers." "What is thought of tine altitude of these powers toward the parties to the recent contest?" "The Intervention of Russia on ac count of the terms of peace was not unexpected, and It Is not unnatural. In view of her predominating Interest in the Orient, especially on the north Pa cific coast of Asia. That France fol lowed the load of Russia created no surprise in the east, but tliat Germany should unite with them In a display of force against Japan was entirely unex pected, and is not yet uudeistood. Tlio Uritish Arc Hitter. lirltiah residents In China and Japan are very bitter In criticism of their government for Its abstention In the matter. They allege that Its failure to Join with the other powers In rear ranging the terms of peace, has lost for their country much prestige and has left Russia a free hand in Us influence ?.nd control of Peking.. Of all the coun tries diplomatically concerned In the contest the I'nlted States has come out ol it with better grace than any other." Why Is that?" "fiecause, from the first her interest has been .recognized by both belliger ents as purely disinterested, her only desire being to render such service as would bring about an honorable and lasting peace. The conduct of the state department In Its very delicate relations with both combatants has been marked by good judgment and by tew mistakes, and the good offices of our ministers and consuls In China and Jupan, where they represented the in terests of both governments have been very useful and are highly appreciated by both nations." THE NEW MEN HAGGLE. Laborers Hired to Take the Places of Strikers object to Low Wages. Pharon. Pa., July 8. Two weeks ago .he laborers at the Sharon Iron works went on a strike for a twenty per cent. Increase In wages. Various proposi tions for a settlement have been offered and rejected.

Simultaneously with their arrival the new men began to haggle as to wagr-s, etc., and as a result the works were not started this morning. The arrival of the negroes together with rumors as to the coming of many more to take the places of the strikers has created much feeling and some excitement. What may result with the arrival of the colored laborers en route Is not known, but it Is not thought any serious out break will occur. The strike among the 1,000 employes r,f the Sharon Iron works came to an end this afternoon by the management making the concession asked for by the men. This was a raise of 10 cents to the day hands. The negroes who were Imported in take the places of the strikers wts shipped back south tonight and the deputy sheriffs who have been on guard at the works In anticipation of trouble were withdrawn.

The bullet extracted filled a 32-callbi-r shell, whereas Brown's re volver Is of 3s-ealiber, and he declares that he fired only blank cartridges. Horn carried a Hi-caliber revolver, and but one shell had been fired when he was arrested.
