CHINA'S REBELLION.
The Latest with Respect to little Rebels
Defeated.

DeIehttus
tBy Anrlo-American cable to the Dispatch.l
PARIS, December 5.-The Chinese Lega-
ton in this city received an official dis
patch to-day to the effect that on the night
of November 18th two secret societies
composed of emigrants from China proper
proceeded 10 Mongolia and inaugurated
revolt against the foreigners and Chris
tians centred in tho district of Tchayo-
Van in the Province Of Johoi. According
10 the latest estimates, from 800 to 500
Christians, several native priests. Mon
rolan prince and some unconyert-
cd natives were mastered. Many
churches were pillaged and burned,
especially in tho towns of Isient-
chang and Pingsuken. The Emperor
on learning Of the uprising ordered the
Tsungli-YGmen to telegraph TO the Gov,
ernor- General Of the province and to all
the Tartar commanders in Manchuria to
dispatch all their available troops to
the scene Of the revolt. The first
engagement between the troops and
the rebels took place on November
25th. The rebels were defeated. The dlt,
ferent commanders have been instructed
20 protect all religious establishments and
TO prevent further massacres. The rebels
are unable TO count on the support OF the
inhabitants. and 1t is very likely that they
will be suppressed.

THE OPENING DULL.
The opening was very dull but generally
higher than last nights prices, aud FUR
Their improvement was made from the first
sales: and when it became evident that
the West was buying freely of its favorites
there was again an endeayor to cover
some of the outstanding shorts. which ma.
terially increased the business done and
kent the upward movement going when 1t
might otherwise have been arrested by
realiZatiOns on the issue of the bank state
ment, which showed a small loss In the
surplus reserve. This, however, was due
TO heavy expansion of loans evenln the face
Of the heavy increase in deposits.
THE CHANGERS AND vANDERBILTs MOST PRoMI-
HENT.
Among the usually active list the
Changers and VanderbIlts we're most promi-
nent for strength, and New York Central,
after touching III, reacted fraction and
still closed per cent. higher than last eve
ming. The only other material advance
was in Sugar, but oil the leading stocks
rose fractions. The feature Of the day was
the squirt in the Milwaukee. Lake Shore,
and western stock. the common rising 3 To
81, and the preferred, after ceiling up 70
1907, closing ga higher at 1874. An old
story that negotiations. had been con-
cluded 10y which the road was TO become a
part OF the Northwestern Cystem was cur
rent. and to some minds accounted for the
advance.
