vICEROY LIU DEGRADED.
For Failing to Protect Missions
He Is Stripped of Rank and
Office Forever.
THIS A WARNING TO OTHERS.
Leaders qf the Attack at Swatow
Arrested and All Implicated
to Be Punished.

LONDON, ENG, Sept. 3O.-The Govern
ment has received information that China
has yielded to the pressure Of the British
ultimatum by degrading the Viceroy of
Szechuen and according in full the other
demands of Great Britain.
A dispatch received at the Foreign Office
says that the Chinese official gazette
has published an imperial edict an
nouncing that the Viceroy of Szechuen
has been stripped of his rank for
failing to protect the missionaries and will
never again be allowed to hold office, so
that his case will serve as warming for all
future time to officials who may be disposed
to do wrong. The decree also denounces
the subordinate officials of the province
who failed to take proper action for the
protection of the missionaries.
The Times will tomorrow print dis
patch from its Berlin correspondent saving
that China has informed Germany that the
leaders of the attack on the German mis-
sion have been arrested, and that meas
ures will be taken to capture the others
implicated in the outrage.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 30.-The
State Department was advised by Minister
DENLY that Viceroy Liu had been
degraded by an imperial decree issued to-
day. The abstract of the decree cabled by
Mr.. DENLY shows that the responsibility
for the Cheng-Tu riots in the province of
Szechuen rests with the officials, that
Viceroy Liu was exceedingly careless and
took no notice of the riots and made no at
tempt to stop the outrages; that he is de-
prived of his Office and never again will be
employed. Other officials are also to be
punished.
The American commission will proceed,
notwithstanding this action, to conduct its
! investigation of the riots. The Secretary
of the Navy was to-day advised that
Observation-Disclosures John P. Morrell
of the Baltimore had been substituted for
Lieutenant-Commander Barber as MEM
Der of the commission, the latter being III.
The other members of the commission are
Consul S. P. Read and Fleming Cheshire.
Additional demands are understood to
have been made by the British and
American Ministers, and if they are
complied with, long step in the right
direction of reform in the province of
Szechuen will have been taken. These
Ministers have, it is understood, made
demand that all examinations for pro-
motion in and appointment to Office shall
cease in the province for three ears. This
is intended as blow to the oficeholding
class, from which source emanates all the
alleged information cried among the ma
tives for the purpose of melting them to
commit outrages.
The Asiatic squadron, which has been
concentrated at Chez Foo, has dispersed.
The flagship Baltimore has gone to Ma
gasaki, the Yorktown to Chemulpo and

STRUGGLE OF THE PATRIOTS.
Many Reasons Urged for the Claim,
That the Island Rebels Are
BellIgerents.

CHICAGO, ILL, Sept. Surrounded
by patriotic notices, with the American
flag as a background the Declaration of
independence as a textbook and the spirit
OF liberty as an inspiration, 1000 persons
ed themselves hoarse tonight in the
= sc of Cuban independence. There
GJuld scarcely have been more enthusiasm
had the meeting been held in Cuba itself.
Central Music Hall was not big enough
TO hold all the sympathizers and there
was an overflow meeting in the auditorium
of the Young Mems Christian Association
building. At both meetings the same res
olutons were adopted and speeches were
made by men prominent in civic affairs,
ali of whom uncompromisingiy favored
! the freedom of the island in the thralldom
OF Spain. The resolutions express sympa-
thy for the revolutionists, call upon the
United States to recognize them as belllg-
erents and ask other countries to join in
! this demand. They begin with the best
known paragraph in the Declaration OF In
3 dependence and end with a determination
to continue the work begun at to-nIghts
two big assemblages.
Some of the notices on the walls of the
two halls were:

Judge William j. Hynes spoke next. "I

can who wishes success to Cuba in this
struggle to free herself. For ten years she
has made this struggle without an express

expression now as early as possible in this

at least is willing to do al in its power"
Congressman William E. Mason did not
think it was much use to hold meeting
passing resolutions of sympathy with the
Cubans when the United States turned its
back on them. He thought as to the
opinion so freely expressed that Cuba
could not rule itself, if it could not do so
npw it never would be able to. Should
Spain be allowed to pinion it's victims for
another hundred years?

Since have been in the Senate of the United

the beginning OF this insurrection, of its ulti-

power. The Cubans have among them many
elements of distinguished successes. They are
brave, patriotic and of quick and sprightly
intelligence, and with opportunity will estab-

1t is time that Spanish misrule, Spanish bru-
tality and Spanish outrage should be driven
from the American continent. The nations
have long asserted the right 70 interfere for
the purpose of suppressing any practice that
shocks the moral sense of the civilized world
such as cannabalism and the slave trade, yet
the cannibals do not torture their victims and
do not indulge in wholesale slaughter, while
in Cuba the torture is fendish and the
butchery continuous. We must end these
horrors OF also talk less about our Christian
cfviliza ion. Besides. when viewed from
geographical and political or military stand
point Cuba should be ours. Let our country

CUNNING WOLVES.
Tha:s Sagacity Leads Them to Refrain
From Poisoned Food.

Ths.f Sagacity Leads Them to Kcf-atn
From Poisoned Food.
Tho extraordinary sagacity of wolves
has been very powerfully instanced in q
recent event on the upper Waldron range.
A colt died. and Mr.. Warnock took ten
strychnino tablets and inserted them care
fully in various parts of the body. He did
not go near that vicinity for a couple of
days, and when he did no went expecting
to SEQ some results from the bait. There
was, however, no sign of wolf, living or
dead, in sight. He hunted around within
q radius of mile or two, but found moth
ing. and finally he went over and exam
ined what remained Of the dead colt.
There was not much. The skin appeared
to have been neatly and completely nayed
from tho body; nearly every particle of
flesh was gone, as were also the rib bones
and anything smaller; tho fore and hind
legs had been wrenched off from the knee
joint down and carried of some distance,
where everything Washable on them had
been properly mashed.
The skin was almost intact, and spread
ing 1t out, hair side down, Mr.. Warnock
casually examined 1t, when he noticed,
with some surprise, a small bunch of flesh
that had been untouched, and which was
adherlng to the hide, and inclosed in which
was the strychnine tablet. A closer exami-
nation revealed the really extraordinary
fact that every single one of the ten strych.
nine pellets that had been inserted had
been left similarly Every shred of flesh
had been eaten all around them and not
single one touched. No wonder 1t is q
difficult matter to catch wolves when they
arc endowed with a cunning like this.
The explanation Is that on this one occa-
sion Mr.. Warnock had picked up tho pei
lets before inserting them into tho bait
with his fingers instead Of, MS was his
usual custom, with pair Of forccps But
the fact illustrates tho kind OF foes tho
ranchers have to deal with.-Macleod Ga
