HlXON AT KU CHENG.
Consul Reports that the Outrage
investigation Proceeds
Smoothly

Washington, D. c., Aug. 2S.-The state
department has. received cable adVices
from Minister DENLY, dated August y,
in which he states that Mr.. Hixon. Unit,
ed States consul at Foo Chow started for
kutien (IAu Cheng) under orders from
him to investigate the recent riots, in the
early part of this month.
Mr.. HiXon went with the consent of the
Chinese government and under protection
of an escort furnished him by the pro-
vincial authorities. He was accom-
panied by a naval officer of the United
States feet, the latter, as the depart
nlent has been advised from other
sources, being Commander Newell of the
Detroit.
Mr.. Hixon has reported to Minister
DENLY that the work of the commits
sion at Kutien is proceeding smoothly
and that the Chinese officials are lend
ing their active cooperation. A COTS
siderable number of convictions have
been already secured.
AS to the SZu-Chuan commission, Mr.
DENLY states that it will begin its work
as soon as the British consul at Chung
King, who has been designated by his
government to serve thereon, can leave
his post, which for the time being he
finds it impossible to do.
The late viceroy of Szu-Chuan, Liu
Ping Chang, has not been appointed by
the Pekin government it's commissioners
for investigating either the June OF Au>
gust riots, but he has received orders
from the Emperor to remain at his post
at Cheng Tu until his conduct prior to
and during the riots has been thoroughly
investigated.
The first paragraph in the above state
ment furnished by the state department
completely disposes of story sent from
Washington by the United press a few
days ago to the effect that Consul Hlxsoh
had proceeded hastily and without au>
thority The whole statement also dis
poses of another baseless story that Min,
lister Denby's course was unsatisfactory
and that he was likely to be recalled
1t is stated at the department that mat
tiers are progressing in China IN an en-
tirely satisfa Glory manner.
Hong Kong, Aug. est is reported
here that ali the members of the Ku
Cheng commission are in good health
and it is said that the Chinese officials
are assisting actively and thoroughly in
the investigation being made into the re-
cent massacre of missionaries. Ten veg
etarians, it is added have already been
convicted and the trial of others is pro
ceeding. There is said to be no danger
of any fresh disturbances in that district
during the sitting of the commission.

MESSAGE FROM DENLY.
United States Minister to China
Seems to be Doing His
Full Duty.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 27.-The state
department is in receipt of a cablegram
from Minister DENLY in which he states.
that in response to request made by him
to the Tsung Ii Yamen, the Taotai Hsu,
Hsing /, has been sent to cooperate with
Consul Hixson in investigating the Ku-
ten (Ku Cheng) riot. The rank of the
commissioner, who is an attendant of
the circuit (TaotaD is, by treaty, equal
to that of the consul. 1t is supposed at
the department that the name of this Off
Ger may have been altered in transmits
sion over the cable and it is possible that
the name should be Hsu Yung !, a we'll
known metropolitan officer who for many
years was yice-president for the board of
works and has also been of late years
minister of the Tsung Ii Yamen.
The wording of Mr.. Denby's cabegram
leads the department to believe that this,
commissioner has been sent from Picking
and it is also inferred that Minister Dem
by has given ample instructions to Con-
sui Hixson and that he is enjoying all
the facilities necessary to carry out his.
instructions at Kutien. This cable, it
is stated, should put to rest the report
that Minister DENLY was not carrying
out the instructions of Acting Secretary
Adee and that there was dissatisfaction
with him at the state department.

START STEAM SHOVELS.
Marquette Range Mine Owners De-
eide to Attempt Making
Shipments.

Ishpeming, Mich, Aug. 29.-LSpecial.1
The Lake Angelina, Lake Superior and
Cleveland Cliffs Iron companies have
finally announced their intention of start
ing their steam showers within the next
few days They have been waiting for
the strikers to come to their terms and
on this account the manipulation of the
shOvels has been delayed. The Lake
Angelina began repairing the shovels yes
terday and intends starting next Monday
or before.
The strikers will certainly oppose the
working Of the shOvelS. The companies
are well aware Of this and Will call Tor
the troops at the outset. The tenants OF
the companies houses have been notified
to vacate their present homes by Septem-
Der l. If the occupants of the houses
do not comply with this request they Will
be evicted. The marching column of
strikers was unusually long this morn
ing.
The mine officials held conference
this morning and decided to start their
steam shOvels under police or military
protection if necessary. Sheriff Broad
is up from Marquette swearing IN depu-
ties to do service in case of an inter-
ference with shovel work. The shovel
operators are holding a meeting this morn
ing and it is quite likely they will de-
eide to return to work. The companies
have given them a certain time in which
to make Up their minds, and in case they
decide TO stay out men from outside will
be put in their places. The shovel men
sent a request to the union this morn
ing asking that the strike be declared
off. 1t is quite probable that the shovels
will be started tomorrow orr Saturday.
The miners meeting today is largely at
tended and it is expected that the meet
ing viii be q lively one, as many of the
miners will endeavor to bring about
decision Ito return to work.
