WASHINGTON NOTES.
AMERICANS SAFE IN CHINA.

AhEhlOANo oar In ChlNAs
WASHINGTON, Oct, 16.-Officials of
the Chinese legation say Americans
in China will be amply protected as
long as the war exists, The nation
shares the feeling expressed in recent
cables from Pekin that foreigners
have nothing to fear from the out
breaks of natives. The newspapers
and private advices received at the
legation make no mention of the dis
order at Pekin by the cables and
think these reports were unwarranted
and came through prejudiced chan
nels. 1t is pointed out that rowdy
outbreaks are likely to occur in war
times, but it is stated with positive
ness that the Chinese government
never has expressed doubt of its ability
to control these local outbreaks as was
reported, and it treasures Americans
aud other foreigners of complete pro-
lection.

1T WAS UNCLE SANS MONEY.
The Wealth with Which Senator Stanford
WAS Gsnerous-A Government Claim
Made Against the Estate OF
California's Munifcent
Millionaire.

San FRANCISCO, June 6.-The claim
Of Sl5, 900, GOO filed against the Stanford
estate. by Attorney General Onley as a
preliminary step to enforce the Govern
ment's claim against the original
holders of the Central Pacific grant has
awakened much interest here. It is
now learned that the Governments
claim was presented on May 26, but
that az attempt was made to keep the
proceeding quiet in order that the
financial operations Of the estate need
not be embarrassed.
The late Senator Stanford's estate was
recently appraised at Sl7, 100000. Since
the appraisement heavy obligations
have heen met, and 1t is stated now
that the enforcement of the Govern
ment claim would practically wipe out
the estate, not only leaving the widow
penuiless, but cutting off all the bene-
ficiaries under the late Senator's will,
including the endowment of So. 5000
to the Stanford University. 1t is even
said that the estate, after the liquida-
ton of its acknowledged debts, may
not equal the amount of the claim of
the Government. In this event Sena-
tor Stanford's deed of trust, under
which Stanford University was found
ed, would not stand in case the decision
Of the Courts should be in favor of the
Government and the university would
necessarily be sacrificed to satisfy the
judgment.
Mrs. Stanford in an interview has
stated that the Governments claim
will be resisted to the fullest extent Of
her ability.
