age the Campaign to Suit
David Bennett.

New York, Oct. 20.-Nathan Straus
announced his refusal to stand as the
Tammany candidate for the mayoral
" by sending letter to james j.
Martin, chairman OF TamnaDy's eX,
ecutive committee, stating his reasons
for Withdrawing from the race.
The talk of a successor on the ticket
was mostly in favor IT ex.Mayoi
Grants nomination, but Mr.. Grant EN-
phatically declared that he would not
be candidate. The selection lies
with the Tammany executive commit
tee. One paper prints the following:
There was rumor at the city hall
that the committee would be stamped
ed to Richard Croker for mayor"
Relating the events leading up TO the
retirement of Mr. Straus from the
Tammany municipal ticket, The Even
ing World says that at Mr.. Straus' re-
quest his political sponsors in Mayor
Gilroy's committee of eight on Tam
many's campaign, made an effort to
get Senator Hill to refuse his consent
to the proposition that his name be
placed upon the state democracy s
ticket, ON which the name Of Mr..
Strong, the republican, and committee
seventy's nominee appears as candi-
date for mayor. These gentlemen Wis
tied democratic state headquarters and
invoked the assistance OF Maj. Hinck-
ley, chairman Of the state committee.
Maj. Hinckley had a Talk with Mr..
Hill over the long distance telephone
and then announced that Senator Hill
was disposed to resent their Interior
ence; that, in fact, the senator did not
care what Mr.. Straus or any one else
thought of the propriety of his action.
as he had been forced into the fight
against his own wishes, aud was deter
mined to make the race now on lines
laid down by himself alone.

This army was nothing but a drove of

hardly any arms. A herd OF coolies be

nearer to what we conceive to be an
army except a small corps that had

Japs have found 1t an easy task to
break it, l am inclined to think their
reports of the number killed in the en-
gagements which have occurred are
not much exaggerated. Their prinei-
pal task would be to jump into a bunch
of Chinese and kill as many as they
could lay sword to. Nevertheless, the
Chinese papers insist that their losses
/ have been nominal. and while the
Japanese claim to have captured Ia
| 600 at Ping Yang, the Chinese claim t.
have lost only $500 The inconsistent
phase of this claim for China is that
the government is not so badly In need
of coolies for the field that it places
such an insignificant detachment In
charge of so important a position.

TALKS ABOUT CHINA.

Chicago, Oct 22.-J. S. Van Buren
now OF Hong Kong, China, has re.
turned to this his native land, for a
brief sojourn, and was seen by a re-
porter last evening shortly after his ar
rival III the city. His observations of
the Chinese phase of the Gorean war
are interesting and instructive.
European colonists generally said
Mr.. Van Buren,, think ii would be
the only question now is whether there
good thing for China If the Japs
would whip them. Still they have very
little faith that they can prove them
selves strong enough for the task.
China has hardly as yet commenced to
draw upon its immense resources, and
is sufficient vitality In the government
to use them to advantage; if Japan
should win in the war, it would be the
dawning of a day of enlightenment for
China. 1t would certainly force the
Chinese TO admit their mistake In
hanging to their Anticipated prejudices
to the neglect of all else. The country
would be opened up to the new world
improvements and civilized ideas, to
railroads, telegraph and telephone sys-
TENS, modern mining appliances, etc,
which would double the wealth of the
empire within decade.
Recurring TO the war and the causes
for it, Mr. Van Buren, said; 1T is gen
orally admitted by Europeans in that
country that China is altogether in the
wrong in the present controversy, and
the folly of provoking a conflict of such
great dimensions at this time is becom-
ing very apparent now. II China had
been sure Of her rear, so to speak,
there would have been some excuse for
following a confused policy of trickery
and bulldozing in her diplomatic re-
lations with Japan over the Corean
protectorate. China, was, however,
in very weak condition at the time.
Besides a depleted exchequer she was
faced by d threatened revolt in por-
ton of the country which has always
contained a turbulent element Of the
harest fighters in all the empire. /

aYou should know continued the
speaker, that there Is vast differ
ence between the Cinnamon Of the
north and the Cinnamon Of the south.
Those whom you see in this country
come almost without exception from
the southern provinces They are
plethorie, sensuous and peaceful. with
an instinct of cunning. But the in
habitants Of the northern provinces
are much better men. They are hardy,
intelligent and restless. This is due,
/ believe, to an intermingling with
Tartar tribes. AT all events they have
given the Chinese no end Of trouble IN
the past, and threaten more in the i'm
mediate future. 1t has been currently
understood for some time that this
section Of the country was on the eve
of revolt. This restless spirit has been
