WAR IN THE EAST.

News of the rebellion of troops in
China and the serious consequences
threatened thereby mas been re-
ceived with intense interest by the
pig tail" contingent in each of the
larger cities of the United States.
This was especially true of Chicago
celestials, whose Mandarin, Sam
Moy, takes the following view of
the rebellion and its consequences:
"This rebellion is simply the be
ginning of the end We Cinnamon
wish to see China win, but more
than that, we wish our own Empe-
ror back in place of the ursurper
who now reigns over us. For years
the Gee Kings have been growing
in power, and today they have
| generals and officers in COM
mand of the army. The sole
object of the Gee Hing society is
to overthrow the present Emperor,
and restore the old dynasty. 1t is
a secret society with millions of
members in China, and at least 800
in Chicago. The Emperor has of
fered 81, 900 reward for the head of
every Gee Hing, but there is not
enough money in the treasury to
pay for the heads. The war with
Japan will not last much longer, for
the Gee Kings will soon be strong
enough to come out openly and de
throne the emperor"
Mandarin Moy thinks this winter
will see a new Emperor and an
elaborate coronation in China,
which many Cinnamon now in
America will attend if they can beg
or borrow the money to cross the
Pacific.

Millions For Defense

Against the inroads of that subtle,
lurking foe to human health ma
laria, has been expended uselessly
when Hostettess Stomach Bitters
appeared upon the scene and de-
monstrated its power ds preven-
i've and curative of the dreaded
scourge. When the gold fever
ragged in 1849 in California, mala-
ria was contemporaneous with it at
the "diggins,' and wrought dread
full havoc among the miners Then
and subsequently on the Isthmus of
Panama, and wherever in the trop-
les malarial disease is most virulent,
the Bitters became the recognized
safeguard. For the effects of ex-
posure and fatigue, miasmapoison-
ed air and water, sea sickness and
all disorderers of the stomach, liver
and bowels, the Bitters affords
prompt relief, Invalids of all sorts
will find it fully adequate to their
needs.

parts % the hall and the speaker was
called to order by the chair, who ruled
that the floor WAS forfeited
Morgan refused TO sit down after re-
peateGly Icing ordered To do so. Finally
he appealed from the decision Of the chair
The decision was sustained by the CON
veition- Pcmcroy spoke against social
ism, but said the greater need of the day
was the abolition OF the American Pro-
teetives- He also advocated the single
tax which with free silver at I6-to-I has

GERMANY WAITS ON CONGRESS.
No Let-up in the War on Our Beef Pro
ducts-Retaliation Probable


WASHINGTON, Dec. lin view of the
Discrimination of congress to take up the
sugar schedules Of the tariff act and. the
consequent improbability of any action
such as was recommended By the presi-
dent looking to the repeal of the duty of
one-tenth Of a cent on sugar produced un-
der the bounty system, the future action
OF the German government is being await
cd with some apprehension here. The
speech of the German chancellor in the
relchStag IN which he made strong point
OF the discrimination imposed by the
United States toward German sugar is be-
Heyed to indicate strengthening of the
policy which that government has adopted
directed to the imposition of severe re-
striction UPON American products sought
to be imported into Germany.
At present Runyon, our minister to
Germany, is working hard To secure an
amelioration of the rigid order of exclu-
sion in the case of American cattle, and
Secretary Gresham is in almost daily con-
suitation with the German minister here
upon the same subject, as well as upon
that of cottonseed oil, which has Just
suffered a severe blow from the increase
of the import tax to 200 per ccnt.-practi-
cally exclusive. Up to this time no ap-
preciable degree of success has attended
these efforts of our government, the char
actcr of the negotiations appearing to in
dictate a purpose on the part OF the Ger
man government to procrastinate until
congress decisively announces its inten-
tons in the matter of the sugar duty
As long as these conditions obtain our
government is likely to wait patiently,
but should there be any fresh attacks by
the Germans upon American interests
there is good reason to believe that the ad-
ministration will have recourse to the
retaliation act of 1890, and singing out
some German article the importation of
which into the United States about equals
in volume the normal American cattle
and meat trade with Germany, forbid its
importation.
