MANCHURIA IS LOST TO CHINA. Vpread of Insurrection In Southern Province* Ctatm Alarm In Peklu*. Some of tbe Points I'pon Wliicli the I'oneri Have Agreed. LONDON, Nov. 12.—"Serious friction lias boon caused in the |>oa<x negotiations in Peking," says The Daily Mail's cor respondent at Tieu-tsiii, writing Nov. y. "by Belgium, Denmark, Holland ami Spain clamoring to have locus standi in any important decisions. Russia ami France have supported their claims, which are opposed by the powers. Bel glum is especially importune and intense ly pro-Ru6Bian." Dr. Morrisou, wiring to The Times from Peking Saturday, says: "Li Hung Chang has not yet replied to Admiral Alexieff's invitation to resume the government of Manchuria under Rus sian protection. Russia will require the names of all officials to be submitted to her for approval. Her proposals are tantamount to military occupation, and every Chinaman realizes that Manchuria is lost to China. "Increasing ulurin is felt here at the spread of the insurrection in the southern provinces. No surprise will be caused if Japun intervenes. The traile nnd finan cial outlook is very gloomy." "All the ltussian troops here," says n dispatch to The Times from Tien-tsin. dated Nov. 9, "are being withdrawn." A dispatch from Berlin says the fol lowing is the full text of the statement, evidently inspired, in the Cologne (Ja aette as to the understanding reached by the representatives of the powers In Pe king regarding the Chinese settlement: "Pourparlers between the envoys In Pe king for the purpose of agreeing upon the fundamentals for peace negotiations with the Chinese plenipotentiaries proceed fu vorably in the whole series of important Itoiyts. "An agreement has been reached be tween the powers particularly regarding the punishment of the main culprits, the mundarlns and princes; also regarding the witnessing of the execution of such punishments by representatives of the powers; also regarding the principle of paying damages to the several govern ments for the costs of the China expedi tious and for damages sustaiued by pri vate persons and tnissious; also regarding the permanent stationing of sutlicient guards for the Peking legations: also re garding the rasing of the Taku forts, aud. dually, regarding the maintenance of se cure and regular communication between Peking aud the seashore.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12-If. as re ported in the Cologne Gatettc. the pow ers have reached a definite understanding in regard to China, its terms as stated by that newspaper omit several features which hare been a source of discussion among them. Probably the most impor tant of these is the proposition to nbolish the cumbersome office of the tsung-li yatnen, or board of foreign affairs, and place the duties of that body under the supervision of one person, who shall be directly responsible for the management of its affairs. This change has been urgently desired by our government, and It is bettered to And a hearty second among all the powers. Officials profess nn unwillingness to discuss with any de tail the existing state of the negotiations now in progress, and the impression pre vails that if an agreement has been reached it is incomplete.

YARMOUTH, N. S„ Nov. 12.-The shore of this county Tor ten miles east and west is strewn with wreckage of the hull and cargo of the steamer City of Montioello, which foundered Saturday morning, and 25 bodies of victims of the disaster have tieeu recovered from the sea, which is still raging with territi fury. Many people have assembled at. Bockrille, near where the first body came ashore, and numerous relatives of members of the crew, who nearly all be longed to points on this coast, have ar rived to identify the dead. The bodies were arranged in a room in the public hall, and Cfironer Fuller, who held an inquest, gave an opinion of ac cidental drowning. All the l>odics are terribly battered. The first body was found at daylight, when the zinc lifeboat'which was sup posed by the survivors of the first boat to have been swamped was discovered on the shore. The thole pins were broken. A few yards distant were the bodies of Mr. Eldridge, a passenger: Second En gineer Poole, Mr. Kripp, a traveling salesman for McUee's Sons of St. John, N. B„ and the body of * seaman. All four had life belts around them. At ■hort intervals along tUe lieach 11 more bodies were fount!, waking IT> discovered up to noon yesterday. They had nil evi dently come ashore in the lifeboat and were killed on striking the beach, not one escaping. The remains so far iden tified in addition to the four enumerated above are: Rupert Olive, purser of the steamer Prince Edward: Kaggage Mas ter Wilson and Deck Hands Johnson. Levi Nickergoii. Robert Xiekerson, VMII Kenenberg. Austin Wickeas. James t.'ole. John K. Wbitmore. Stanley Hiuger. Winslow Kiuger, Harry ('apelsnd and Duvid Benham. The watches in the pockets of two of the men stopped at 12:46 and I:2ft o'elock respectively. The body of Captain Harding of the Monticello has lieen found at Picnic point encircled with a life t>elt and fully dressed. The features are slightly bruis ed. Au uoknown body, supposed to be that of a traveling salesman for * west ern boot and ah or firm, has been found at the same place with the liodies of El sie McDonald and Second Officer Mur phy, recovered Saturday. Of the mem ber* of the crew whose bodies were se cured fopeland and Hettham were not known to lie on board until their bodies were identified. They were not on the ship's articles, having joined for the trip only. Severn I bodies art- still unidentified. One body wn» recognized Inst evening John Riehmond of Kftacx, \. K.. n trav eler for ii hoot and shoo firm. He was not before known to have been a passen ger. Thia swell* the known death roll t.i 32. Benham took the place of Whit more, previously reported lost, Copelaml was also a substitute, but for whom it is not known. It is n coincidence that the ship Peter Stewart was wrecked off this shore a few years ago, in the month of July, and n boatload of men came in where the Mouticello's boat was found. Half of the men wAv dead before tin boat touched the land, and many believe the same was true of those in the Monti cello's boat. The fury of the surf is simply appalling in this region. The body of O. N. Coleman, another commercial traveler who was not pre viously known to have been on board the Mooticello, has been washed ashore and identified. He represented Levi Bros. <V Co., jewelers, Hamilton. Out., and car lied samples in trunks worth SB'_'.IHXI. One trunk has been found. The total number of people who were on hoard is new placed at 36. The four aurrivor* are Captain Smith, a passenger: Third Officer Fleming, <Jusr tennaater Wilson and Stswardeaa Suaitli. The place where the Monticello struck ia at the mouth of the Bay of Fund.v, where the waters of the bay join those of the Atlantic. There are tnany reefs and shoals at this spot, and the currents are many aud changeable, it being one of the moat dangerous places on the coast. The gale kicked up a tremendous sea. aud ut the time the veaael struck the waves were beating upon the rocks aud sending spray hundreds of feet over the land. Vf.t York's Dleoree Mill. NEW YORK.
