Mr.. FLICKWlR HAS NOT RESIGNED
Several Changes In Contemplation on the
Norfolk and Western.

ROANOKE, VA, January ~7.-(Special)
For some time it has been rumored here
that ID. W. F1ickwir. general superin-
tendent OF the general eastern division
Of the Norfolk and Western railroad.
would resign to take charge OF a furnace
at Shenandoah, in which he and Vice
President and General Manager Sands
are largely interested. and that J. W.
Cook. division superintendent OF the
Shenandoah Valley road. would be pro-
NOTED to Mr.. Flickwir's position.
A dispatch sent out from Luray an
pounced that both changes had already
taken place. The Norfolk and Western
officials here. when shown a copy Of the
telegram by your correspondent, said that
Mr.. FIickwir had not resigned. and. there
fore, his successor had not been ap-
pointed. but that certain changes were In
contemplation, which would not take
place for a month yet. While II is not
definitely known. yet IL Is thought to be
an absolute fact that Mr.. Flickwir will
resign to accept the management OF the
Shenandoah Furnace. but that Mr. Cook
will not be his successor. IL Is also
considered certain hat Captain T. II.
Bransford. superintendent OF the Norfolk
and Western. Of the Roanoke Division.
Will also resign, and that Mr.. Cooks
jurisdiction will be extended 80 as TO
include what Is now Captain Bransford's
division.

ORDERED TO LEAVE THE HOTEL.

The climax came several days ago.
Thomas and Mrs. Bannister precipitated
IL, and Mrs. Alexander had a part. Mrs.
Bannister cried. and Mrs. Alexander
stormed. Thomas left the hotel abruptly,
muttering something. Mrs. Bannister was
ordered to find other living quarters.
When Father Christie looked for his
son the following night 10 oil the wheels
Of a buggy. his offspring was not to be
found. The ticket-seller at the railroad
station said the young man had boarded
a New York train. When Mr.. Bannister
inquired for his wife at the Franklin
Hotel, he found only little Natalie. who
vouchsafed the information that mamma
has gone with Thomas"
Mrs. Bannister has since written TO
friends In this town. She Informed them
that Bismarck. y. D., is her destination.
and a divorce her object. The husband, II
Is said. will contest the action vigorously.
The handsome resIuence in Broadway,
Nyack. which sheltered the couple during
their first few years Of happy married
existence. was the property OF Mrs. Ban
mister. 1t has developed that she sold the
place just prior TO her departure. for
$500. Mr.. Bannister is living with his
parents.

DOWN GOES THE DALE.
She Ran Aground Twice and Now She
Has Sunk at Her Wharf.

The United States sloop-of-war Dale.
which arrived ut Baltimore from Wash
ing Saturday to go into service as the
practice-ship Of the Maryland Naval Re.
serve. sank on Sunday at her wharf, foot
Of Charles street.
The Dale is now resting on the bottom,
the water just covering her main deck.
There are * feet Of water at the wharf.
and the ship ordinarily draws II feet q
inches. She Is in an upright position. her
upper deck being above water.
The sloop arrived at the draWbridce
about noon Saturday. In going from tn.
channel 10 her wharf she ran aground,
and 1t took the tugs Britannia and Chi
Cago and the ice-bOat Maryland TO pull
her of. This was the second time the
Dale ran aground in her trip from
Washington. the first time being last
Friday, when she struck just as she was
leaving her pier in Washington.
She had rough weather during her trip.
and considerable water worked into her.
Some Of this was pumped out and shs
was believed to be all right Saturday.
She was left in charge Of United States
Shipkeeper Wright, who made an eXami-
nation at 1899 =. NJ. and found she had
not taken in more water at that time.
on Sunday morning Mr.. Wright found

Of the Naval Reserve, and Surgeon Edwin
Geer. These officers dil not receive the
message until = l.. VI. When they reached
the ship she was fast sinking. and At 1
j. NJ. she was resting on the bottom.
After that she settled about two feet and
the water was above the portfolios. About
a dozen Of the Naval Reserve members
were present, but could DO nothing more
than carry furniture % the upper deck.
Captain Emerson sent for pumping tugs
and 20 n wreckinc company TO ascertain
the damages and the cost Of raising the
slOOp.
As she has been housed over. the Dale
presents something Of the appearance Of
an ark. This led To some such comments
as the following, when a crowd gathered
near her after she had sunk:
Take her back and tell Grover TO give
her to Ruth for a dollhouse"
SAY, mister. when is you going TO let
the animals out OF the ark"
Several causes for the sinking were
given, one OF them being that the water
which had washed into the boat during
the trip from Washington had settled her
enough TO permit more water 10 enter

been below the surface and were opened

On May 20, during the feast of the
fifth moon, when great crowds were
gathered and carousing, melted by
these insane and incendiary documents,
without warning the onslaught began.
The hitherto peaceable populace be-
came disturbed, but still friendly to
the foreigners who had built hospitals
and dispensaries and conducted free
schools for them, refrained in a won
derful way from violence, till riotous
bands Of agitators broke loose like
madmen, and began to pillage, burn
and destroy all within their power,
while the officials failed utterly to rem
der any adequate protection whatever.
Americans and Europeans, Protest
ants and Catholics alike fled for their
lives from the fury of these fends in
carnate, concealed by friendly yamens
(residences) by imperial orders. The
Canadian Methodist mission was the
first to feel the fury of the mob.
About evening, after a drunken,
boisterous day, an attack was made
upon the Canadian mission. A mob
broke in the gates, but was held at
bay for three fearful hours by two
brave missionaries, Drs. Kilborn and
Stevenson, who were nerved to the
conflict by the consciousness that their
wives and little ones must be protected
or fall victims to an awful fate too ter
rible to relate; SO they held their own,
hoping in vain for official protection,
which was purposely withheld.

THE WHITE LILY OF KO-LAO. WHEI
A Secret Society That Led on the Attacks

Second, the secret society called White

aims to overthrow the present govern
ment, and the occasions of numerous eX-
amples of overbearing conduct on their
part They led the attack on us and
think they did at some Of the other places.
The men who broke in did not do so much
of the stealing. But others did, and the
Lily did nothing at all; much like riots at
home
1t was II days after the first outbreak
before the beleaguered foreigners" were
on board boats bound for the coast, where
they could count on better protection
The riots spread up and down the Yang
Use Kiang river, reaching the stations Of
the American Baptist Missionary Union
at Sinchhaufu, Kaitng and Yachow. The
last named is the most western station of
the Union. not far from the border or
Tibet, and there the natives and officials
had been very friendly.
The American missionaries had been
welcomed there only a few nights before
by the firing off of ten thousand firecrack,
ers and all was well with them. But soon
after agitators arrived, riots broke out
and friendly officials and natives aided all
foreigners to escape on RATS down the
river, fearing their inability to protect
them from the rioters. Floating down the
! river for days and weeks, making marvel
Gus escapes and fearing to land, they saw
the work Of destruction going on owing
to fatal official inactivity.
Had the American and British govern.
ments Immediately demanded proper pun
ishment of all outrages, with indemnity
therefor and just guarantee against all
future repetitions thereof, at that time
the imperial government of China, with
the moral power of England and America
behind it, could have enforced these de-
mands at once, would have regained it's
tirrn md
pie, and put an effectual quietus upon the
organized outlaws overrunning the land;
but the British and American govern.
ments both delayed and thus rendered the
situation doubly dangerous, as this EN-.
boldened the disaffected. The troubles
spread not only UP and down the Yang
Use Kiang, resulting in riots, but wher-
ever defenseless foreigners, men, women
and children, could be found they were
at the mercy of the mobs
