The Washington cor respondent of The Dally Chronicle ca bles that he learns from the highest diplomatic authority that there Is a complete understanding: between Rus sia and France In regard to the east to the extent of their co-operating on sea and land In the event of hostilities. An effort has been made to Induce Germany to art In concert with them, but hitherto without success. The move ment Is directed against England. The Shanghai correspondent of The Dally Mall says: "The Russians tricked China Into con senting to an occupation of Port Arthur by representing that the British fleet was coming- to capture It. They also asked the Chinese to prohibit the Eng lish from landing. The hitter refused, but any Englishman going ashore at Port Arthur Is shadowed by the Rus sians." A dispatch from Hongkong says the British warship Powerful has arrived there. The Powerful Is a first class cruiser of over 14,000 tons displacement and 25,000 Indicated horsepower. She Is heavily armed and Is estimated to have a speed of about 22 knots. She carries a crew of 840 men. LI HUNG CHANG RECALLED. Th Great Chtn BtHte.mfta Had Diplo uiRt Again In Power. Tacoma, Jan. B. The Bteamer Inilra pura has arrived from Japan, bringing the latest mall advices regarding the oriental situation. LI Hung Chang has been recalled to power at Peking, the emperor and the Inner council desiring his assistance In the diplomatic crisis. LI Hung Chang recently started for his estates on account of III health. He has now returned to Peking, and the gov ernment has taken up for serious con sideration his memorial on the military and naval defenses of the empire. This memorial was prepared on Earl Li's re turn from America and Europe, but re mained pigeonholed until now. Thousands of troops are being recruit ed in the Interior, and it is Intended to double the number of battalions In all the Chinese maritime provinces within 30 days. The emperor has received many secret memorials regarding the defense of the empire from high mili tary and civil olTlclala throughout China. Ail China Is awakening. Not LI HUNO CHANO. even during the China-Japan war was there such united feeling as Is now to be observed among the educated Chi nese and masses. Japan Is stirred up by news from Peking saying that be yond doubt Russia and France are ac tively conspiring to procure the dismiss, al of Sir Hobert Hart, the EngJIsh di rector of the Imperial Chinese customs. The procedure followed resembles that pursued with reference to McLeavy Brown In Korea. It Is believed that the Russian and French influence will prevail, as both powers are bent on se curing the dismissal of Sir Robert Hart. There will be at least a reorganisation of China's customs service and a di vision of the offices between powers In proportion to the trade of each country with China. A number of newspapers in Japan and the Chinese maritime ports express the belief that the partition of China among the powers Is Inevitable. SHAW'S TRIAL ENDS. Brought to a Sadden Cloeo by Keaeoa el Alleged Undo lofloeno. Camden, N. J., Jan. 5. The trial of Ell Shaw on the charge of having mur dered his mother and grandmother came to an abrupt end yesterday. The court machinery up to Tuesday night seemed to be moving steadily toward a decision of his fate, when suddenly It Jolted and stopped, and the air vl brutes with the wildest rumors aa to the cause. At the opening of the session yester day Jude Garrison announced that the trial would be abandoned and that the case would be tried at the appeal term of court. The only explanation made relative to this unusual action was couched In a few words to the effect that the defendant had asked that a Juror be withdrawn, and that after con sulfation with counsel for the defense and the county prosecutor the court, bad decided to grant the request. The case was put over the term, and the court adjourned. Justice Garrison stated that matters of much Importance had been placed before him. He regretted to say that from an authentic source It had been learned that a lawyer, In an attempt to assist In clearing the defendant, had taken steps that laid him open to grave charges. Before the trial nearly the entire panel of Jurors had been vlaited. The sentiments of many regarding the Shaw case had been learned. In addi tion to this nearly all the witnesses had been called on, and in several Instance! threats had been used,. Three witnesses had left the state, and of the 12 Jurymen five were men who belong to the same secret or der as the defendant. There was no reason to believe that there had been anything wrung In connection with the selection of the Jurors on the panel. Kx-Guveraor 11 cm. Dead. Houston, Jan. 4. Ex-Gnvernor Law rence S.

Richmond, Jan. B. When Colonel John Cussons published a card In a newspaper on Sunday last In reply to one published a week before by General George Hundley and used some very se vere expressions In regard to General Hundley, those who know the two men at once said that It was Impossible for the matter to end there, and when It was announced yesterday tbat General Hundley had come to Richmond from his home In Amelia county, the public was In an expectant attitude. The authorities seemed to be of a sim ilar opinion as the public In regard to the fighting natures of the two men, and last night Chief of Police Howard, on Information received, had a warrant Issued by Justice Crutchfletd against General Hundley, who was stopping at Murphy's hotel, and arrested him on a charge of being about to engage In a duel. Detective Tomllnson served the warrant. Justice Crutchfleld released him on ball of $1,000 for his appearance In the police court tomorrow mnrnln Peteetlve Tomllnson going on the bond. General Hundley at once returned to his hotel. Colonel Cussons was grand command er of the United Confederate Veterans and later chairman of the history com mittee. Colonel Stubbs succeeded him as grand commander and was then also made a member of the history commit tee. When Colonel Stubbs was made a member of the committee. Colonel Cus sons resigned as chairman. It then be came known for the first time that members of the history committee were under suspicion of having received bribes from a book company. Colonel Cussons gave this as his reason for re signing. He was an important witness In the Stubb investigation; and out of criticisms made by General Hundley as counsel for Stubbs grew a series of publications which became more and more heated until the present culmina tion. Warrant For Cations. A warrant was Issued for Colonel Cussons, but he Is at his country seat seven miles away. The action on the part of the police w'as taken when It was learned that both General Hundley and Colonel Cussons were quartered un der the same roof at Murphy's hotel. When seen at his room, General Hund ley declined to be Interviewed. Oeneral Hundley Is well known In Virginia politics, having served a long time In the legislature. He was a gal lant soldier during the war. Colonel Cussons is an Engllshmanwho was long a scout on the plains. He was promot ed on the field of battle In the Con federate service. He Is picturesque and handsome, with hair worn on the Buffa lo Bill style. He owns a beautiful place t Glen Allen, near Richmond, where he has lived since the war. He Is said to be the best pistol shot In Virginia. He fought a duel years ago with Editor Belo, now of the Galveston and Dallas News, and wounded him badly. Mr, Belo, after falling to the ground, arose and claimed another shot, but his sec onds refused, and the battle closed there. During the war Colonel Cussons fought a duel with a man In the south who had Insulted him. The man was believed to have been mortally wound ed, and Colonel Cussons thought he died. Twenty years afterward he ap peared at Colonel Cussons' country home at Glen Allen and announced himself. Colonel Cussons threw up his hands and Invited the man to take some refreshments. He accepted and was en tertained in handsome style for sev eral days. They have since been warm friends. DANGEROUS COUNTERFEIT. Bogus Silver Certificates Por 1 00 Whsoh Defy Detection. Washington, Jan. 4. One of the most dangerous counterfeits ever discovered has made Its appearance. John Cramer of the subtreasury at Philadelphia brouKht to the secret service bureau five $11)0 counterfeit silver certificates with the head of President Monroe. Their general appearance Is excellent, and, after close examination, the offi cials of the treasury cash room were Undecided as to their genuineness, and only after the notes had been soaked In hot water, when the two pieces forming the front and back came apart, were they convinced of the fraud. On examination of treasury cash an other of the spurious notes was dis covered. The notes brought over by Mr. Cramer had been turned Into the subtreasury by two leading banks and the Philadelphia custom houBe, which had received them as genuine. A description of the notes baa been wired to agents of the secret service ev erywhere with instructions to be on the lookout for persons attempting to pass them. Inquiries also have been sent to all the leading cities as to whether any of the notes have appeared other than In Philadelphia and Washington, and the beat men In the service will be put on the case. Following Is a description of the note as furnished by the secret service: The note Is of the aeries of 1891, check letter D, face plate 1, Tillman, register; Morgan, treasurer; portrait, James Monroe. All numbers so far aeen begin, with 345. The most marked differences between this note and the genuine, however, are found In the seal and the umbering, the counterfeit being a .hade lighter than the genuine and the genuine slightly different in formation, Especially is this true of the 1 and 4. In the figure the lower loop does not extend up as far toward the center of the figure aa In the genuine, and In the figure 4 the space between the base and the center cross line is narrower than In the genuine. One of the principal points of difference, however, Is that the new counterfeit is one-Bixteenth of an nch or leas shorter than the genuine. In view of the dangerous character of the counterfeit, Secretary Gaxe decided to stop lsaulua? and to call In all tloO silver certificates, of which there Is about 26,0OO.0O0 outstanding. These will be exchanged for sliver certificates of smaller denominations and the plates destroyed. As soon as new plates can be engraved a new series will be Issued.

TIIffiTY ARE KILLED. FRIGHTFUL CATASTROPHE AT A PO LITICAL MEETING IN CANADA. The Ploo. of the City Hall, Which Was Den.ely Packed. Gnre War. Baryfng Bnndrtdl In the Ruins Thirty Dead Bodies Taken Prom the Debris. London, Ont., Jan. 4. One of the fnost stubbornly contested municipal elections ever known in this city cul minated last night In a tragedy that has put the city In maiming. At the close of the polls the croTvd, as Is usual, gathered In the city hall, where it has been the custom fur years past for the successful candidates to address the electors. The meeting had been con ducted In the usual manner and was about to be closed, when the floor In the northeast corner of the hall gave way, and the people situated In that section were perelpitated to the floor below. An alarm of Are was sounded, and the brigade soon reported and began the work of removing the debris and taking from the ruins the bodies of the dead and Injured. Thirty bodies have been removed from the wrecked building and Identi fied. How many were Injured will nev er be known, as those who suffered but slightly at once started for their homes or were taken care of by their friends. Those who were more Berlous ly Injured were carried to neighboring drug stores, whence they were taken to the hospital or to their homes after their injuries had been attended to. The dead were taken to the committee rooms of Alderman Parnell, the defeat ed candidate for mayor, across the street. The building was crowded to the very doors, probably 2,000 people be ing Jammed In Its narrow space. There was a lull in the proceedings, the audience called for several of the newly elected aldermen at once and there was some delay In securing a speaker to address them. Alderman Carrothers Joined the mayor In an ef fort to secure quiet. In response to nu merous calls It. M. Toothe was pushed forward to the platform on which the speakers stood. As he reached It there was an ominous cracking, and the rais ed platform on which the mayor and newly elected aldermen were seated seemed to pitch forward to the floor. Sagging of the Timbers. There was a sagging of timbers, and the next moment 150 people were hurl ed 20 feet to the floor below. A beam running 20 feet along the center of the hall had given way, and the crowded mass standing above that section of the floor was thrown in a heap to the bot tom. A large safe stood in one corner of the hall and a huge steam coll weigh ing a ton, and they came crashing down on the heads of the victims. Following the crash there was a wild rush for the doors. At the south door, where the majority of the crowd had entered, there was a terrible panic. Those In front were thrown down by the oncoming rush, shrieking and fight ing for the door and safety. Only one half of the rear door, a space of proba bly three feet, was open, and In the mad rush no one thought to open the door completely, and 600 people struggled through the narrow space, the stronger bearing down the weaker. Within a moment after the floor had fallen In there were not more than three persons in the hall on that portion of the floor which had not fallen. A glance at the wreck after the ca tastrophe disclosed the fact that a whole section of the floor -had dropped, the Joists being as neatly cut off as though the work had been done with a saw The building Is an old one, having been erected In the early fifties, and of late years additional stories have been placed on the old walls. In the Grand Opera House, which ad joins the wrecked building, the first act of "The Girl From PariB" had Just been concluded, when word was whispered through the theater of the calamity. A panic was Imminent, but was averted by the actors and ushers, and the peo ple quietly left the building. The Injured Include the newly elected mayor, several aldermen, the water commissioner and several newspaper men. THREATENED STRIKE. Pennsylvania Coal Miners Dissatisfied Over a Shutdown. Dubois, Pa., Jan. 4. The Rochester mine at this place was yesterday closed indefinitely, the result of which has been to Increase the dissatisfaction which has prevailed among the miners In this section. The miners claim that the shutdown Is due to the operators' desire to get rid of a number of miners who have been active In organizing since the recent strike. The company, however, claims that the closing of the mine Is because of a misunderstanding with the land owners over the question of royalties, the mines being operated on the percentage plan. The dissatisfaction apparent here is also noticeable at Reynoldsvllle, where the mines are operated by the same company. At the latter place trouble Is brewing over the collection of the check welghman'a funds. The miners at both points are well or ganized, and there Is a strong possi biltty that a midwinter strike will be Inaugurated before long. Over 600 men are affected by the shutdown at Roch ester, of which but. a small number will be able to get work at other holdings. At Reynoldsvllle about 1,000 men are Idle. Should a strike be ordered, there will be much suffering among the min ers, as there Is a foot of snow on the ground and the thermometer has fallen to almost zero, Echoes of the Slugerly Failure.
