On the afternoon of the 21st instant, the teosad conforanca was held in the Kencho. The sang representatives were presunt. After a few preliminary remarks Mr. Kuseks stated that, sccording to the testimony of the palies; and amorous other witnesses of the affray, the disturbances of the 15th instant had evidently | heen started by the Chinage warmen; that in trying to paolfy them sad persuade them to return to their vessels, the polics had been led | to employ force in self defense, and other Ja- panses vocatable samo to their assistanso so Roon as the Chinesa suaman beg‐sa to fight with swords and other weapons. To this the Chinese Consul replied by stating that his information pointed exactly the other way; it was the police who feat attacked the Chinees soomOT.
Mr. Kusaka-What is your authority for this statement P
Chinese Conen-The examination of the wit- nates which I sun now cominuting, is not com- plated, but I have learnt this mack from the do- positions of the wounded me. Before dis- cuming the disturbances of the night of the 15th instant, I propose that we should spank of the collision between the ramen and police which took place où the 18th instort,
Me Kusaka-Thoms is me to postpoes

Chinese Consul-That will be impossible. I havo received a telegram from the Chinese Lega- tion in Tokyo ordering me to stop the progress of the inquiry until the arrival of further in- Etractions
Mr. Kusak-Does that mean that your an- thority is recalled, or simply that the Chinese -Minister requests a further postponement?-
Chinese Consal-The telegram relates marely to the postponement of these conferences.
Mr. Kosaka-Doaa the protocol drawn ny at our first meeting remain in foros or not? Chinese Conaal-It rousias in force..
Vice Admiral Lang herospan addressed the Chinese Consul, and asked why he had got in farmad him of the existence of this telegram be- face starbiy out ? Turning to the others pra Beat, he continued, "It will be useless to con tine this conference ander existing sirouna

Bbsre The whole province hat bean slmost under
water and the poor people have been washed ont of house and home. Several numbers of the community have raised sobsaription, but thege fall very short of the requirements. The winter may bring with it a lot of troubles owing to the starving condition of the natives. Rulans are sure to take advantage of the circumstanos, and local banditti are hand to coms to the fore. The price of produce has rison, and the business generally done in the autama is likely to be Interfered with owing to the damage done to props and the scarcity of new pass. There is a decided change in the weather and every time the wind turns to the north, the thermometer gosa down. Already Fabr. has marked somewhere about 55 degrees and there is not much danger now of sunstroko.. Ships are beginning to swing properly with the ebb and flor-so we may conclude some of the water has left the country.
Daily News Correspondent.
The following appeal has been forwarded to Shanghai by Mr. Bandinel, of Nowabwsag, on behalf of the Kalief Committee:--
Subscriptions are earnestly solicited for the purpose of alleviating the distrem osused by the 10cont floods throughout the river valleys of this province. For days the plaina hare been a vast lake, soros which boats are exiling without Lindrance; houses have fallen by bundede in the country districts, the villagers have lost their erops, stores, ulethes, and in many instances their lives. The foods are now subsiding, and the survivors will probably manago with somadificul ty to eke out a scanty absistence during the antewo; but when the winterseta in, their suffer ings will be great, without homes and with little clothing and loss food. A Committee has been. formed consisting of Messrs. Aliou. Bandinel, Morrison, and Macintyre for the purpose of rais- ing and distributing funds among the sufferers, without distinction of rest or religion.
Subscribers will please send their donations to the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank, Shanghai, er to any member of the Commitise in New- chwang.
