METHODS AT THE MISSIONS
Chinese Merchants Explain Their Inner

CHICAGO, Aug. 26.--Sam Moy,
prominent Chinese merchant of Chicago.
says that Chinese paper he just received
gives the Chinese version of the attack
upon the English and American mission
aries. According to his Chinese paper
the attack developed a serious state of
affairs. 1t was found that the easements
Of the missionary houses were closely
guarded by disreputable Chinese hangers
on of the missions. No decent Cinnamon
will have anything to do with a mission.
The missionaries cannot talk the lam
guage. The Chinese in the interior who
can talk pigeon or any foreign lam
guage are almost always young men who
have run away to avoid punishment for
petty crimes or to shirk the support OF
their families, going to some treaty port
instead of to the mountains. as the fugi-
tves from Justice for more serious crimes
do. In time the petty crime is forgotten
or compounded, and the fellow comes
back, but is regarded as social outlaw
and does not find or want to find any
thing to do in the way OF work more than
enough to keep keep him alive.
The advent OF the missionary opens q
new field for the unscrupulous linguists
The missionary has to have IN interpre-
ter. The outcast is ready to act and also
to become a convert-anything for an
easy life. He becomes u member of the
missionary staff and household. The
missionary wants converts: the hanger
on wants some luxuries. There are only
two ways to get converts in China. One
is to hire them; then you have converts
Just as long as they are paid. The other
is by buying or kidnapping children and
keeping and teaching them. Hiring
converts and buying children are ex-
pensive, but the better class of mission
aries. well supplied with money, who
understand the Chinese usages, hire and
buy and show results. Good missionaries
don't allow kidnapping. but most of the
missionaries, while good people them
selves. don't know how bad their native
staff is. 1t is the native staff, under
the lead of the tough interpreter, which
does the kidnapping, and the missionaries
are fooleu.
This Is the way it is done: One of the
Interpreters sees a child, girl, 10 or Il
year of age and finds out she is not we'll

HARRISBURG, Pa, Aug. Ex-senator
Quay and his followers made bold dash
today in the fight for Republican suprem-
acy in this state by taxing possession OF
the state committee and deposing B. +.
Gilkeson from the chairmanship. Their
object in doing this was to place tn en-
selves in position to prepare the rolls of
the delegates to Wednesdays convention
so that they might appear before that
body with prma facie case.
What the effect of this movement will
be cannot yet be foretold, and the next

ed for with great interest.
The situa ton in general.tonight is in
tensely exciting and altogether uncertain.
Both factions are claiming victory, but
it must be admitted that those who are
opposing the aspirations OF Senator Quay
are the most serene and confident. The
Junior senator has his headquarters at the
Lochiel hotel. where he has put in very
busy day and night. The delegates are
slow in arriving, not more than fifty OF
the $50 hav ng reached the city. AS they
arrive they are confronted for the first
time in the history OF the Republican
party in this state by dual headquarters
of the state committee. One of these is at
the Commonwealth hotel, and is in
charge of Mr.. Gilkeson, who is assisted
by A. d. Fetterolf secretary OF the COM
mittee. The other Is at the Lochiel
hotel. and had been engaged by Chairman
Gilkeson, and when he came to take pos
session this morning he found that Sena-
tor Quay's followers had captured the
room. A large placard announcing the
location OF the rival headquarters and
requesting delegates to present their ere
dentials at each of them ornamented the
three OF the III members of the state
committee attended the meeting held
this afternoon in the interest of Quay.
Thomas P. Cooper of Delaware couny was
made temporary chairman by, aoclama-

INDIANS MAY HUNT
The Game Laws OF Wyoming Will Cut NJ
Figure

Ihe uame Laws OF wyoming VIII Sut NO

WASHINGTON, Aug. o6-It has been
denfiitely decided by the Indian bureau
that no attention will be paid to the game
laws of Wyoming where they come into
conflict with the treaty of the United
States with the Bannock and Shoshone
Indians. The attorney general. consider
ing the matter has informed the secre-
tary of the interior and commissioner of
Indian affairs that the rights of Indians
to hunt on unoccupied lands, in his
opinion, is unquestionable, and the state
nf Wyoming has 40 power to limit or
abrldge this right. No definite steps to
enforce this determination has been de-
cided upon, further than that instructions
to the United States district arttorney se-
cureu the release of Indians now in Gus
tody on writs of habeas corpus will prob
ably be supplemented by an order to do
the same thing in case any arrest is
made in the future. The bureau will dis

VISA Bile at any time to permit Indians to
leave the reservation to hunt the whites,

on an irrigation ditch, soon to oe con-

anticipated, as the Indians are now on

Lieutenant Governor Walker read the res

which a resolution was adopted that IA

roll of delegates to the state convention,
The committee was instructed to make
its report at a meeting OF the state COM
mittee to be held at IL O'Clock tomorrow
at the Lochiel headquarters.
A resolution was also adopted instruct
ing a committee to ascertain what ar
rangements had been made for the admls-
sion of delegates, members OF the press
and others entitled to the privilege OF the
floor, and as to the manner in which the
votes upon various propositions were
taken.
The state committee then adjourned
until tomorrow.
AT the anti-Quay headquarters tonight
David MARITIME. l.. Magee and other lead
ers sat arosnd and discussed the situa-
ton, all expressing in the most confident
manner POSSIBLE their belief that they
had won their fight. Chairman Gilkeson
declined to give out any figures. but Mr..
Martin said he knew of l6G delegates who
would vote against Quay for state char
man. This is fifteen more than the num-
ber necessary to win.
Senator Quay reiterates his pre-
vious declaration that he has not
less than 100 delegates. Both sides
claim to have captured some waver-
| ing delegates today. Thomas ?
| Cooper and Judge Miller calle on Gov
ernor Hastings at the capitol twice after

people claim they suggested as COM
| promise that Quay and Gilkeson both
retire. Quay being willing to permit his
! opponents to name the state chairman.
Mr.. Cooper says his visit was for ar
| entirely different purpose. The sugges
tion, he said. was made that it was i'm
! proper for man occupying the high ex

vania to take an active part in faGtiona

ing rolls of delegates, and it will not be
probably known until tomorrow night

will be two conventions.
Many of the knowing ones profess u

event there may be two Republican
tickets in the field this fall.

TO DEVELOP LAWN TENNIS
The National Association Wants

The officers of the National Lawn Ten
mis- Association are making a deter
mined effort to systematic and develop
the game of tennis throughout the coun-
try. "'This is DONE" says the Secretary,
Joseph J.. Whittelsey. 'talong three lines
corresponding to the three prominent
divisions of players in this country.
First, the interscholastic division, which
includes all the younger players, n is
composed of the college preparatory
schools. Second, is the intercollegiate
Association, designed to include all the
colleges in the country Third, the gov
erning or parent association. which in
cludes those named and all others. Last
year four associations were represented
in the :n~terscholastic group. These were
formed by the preparatory schools of
Yale, Harvard, Princeton and Column
bia. They all held tournaments, and the
winners met at Newport, where the in
terscholastic championship vas deter
mined. 1t is hoped hat these associa-
tons will increase in number. Such col
leges as Dartmouth, Brown n AM
herst should foster them. I am always
ready to furnish all information that
may be needed regarding organization.
The intercollegiate group should also be
developed, and every college in the and
should join. The National Association m
cludes the older players, and as the best
way to strengthen and develop it is by
State contests. the officers of the associ-
alton are laying special stress on the i'm
portance of this class of tournaments
They nave already been started. Last
year tournaments were held in Massa-
chusetts, Rhode Island, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Missouri and Michigan.
Only residents in the respective States
can take part in these contests. The Ma
the State tournaments all over the coun-
try. The winners of those might meet

winners of these again would meet at
Newport for g final contest. Nothing is
yet definitely known regarding the plans

this year or what tournaments they will
