HONOR FOR Ii.
He Is Appointed Minister of Foreign
Affairs.


Ii Hung Chang has been appointed
Minister of Foreign Affairs in China.
Heretofore China's grand old man has
been merely Viceroy of the royal prov
ince, and though actually in control OF
foreign affairs as the most trusted OIL
cial servant of the Emperor, has never
held the rank of Foreign Minister. In
view of Ii Hung Chang's liberal ten
dency in intercourse with other nations,
his appointment to the post OF Foreign
Minister is of the utmost significance. IL
means beyond question that China is on
the up grade again, that the new era OF
that ancient nation is to be an era OF ad-
vance toward the standards of civiliza-
ton. which obtain in the nations OF the
west. His success in negotiating the
peace treaty with Japan over the shout
ders of Russia and England, he using
the latter nations influence to obtain
easier terms from Japan, placed him high
in the favor of the Emperor. Following
that, his tour of the world, during which
he readjusted the relations of China with
Russia and England, added greatly to
his renown at home. 1t is the avowed
policy of Ii Hung Chang to build rail-
ways and factories in China and to eX-
tend her trade with other countries-a
policy the exact reverse of that which
China has pursued for 5000 years past.
1t is presumed that he has at last con-
WINGED the Emperor of the value of the
liberal policy and was appointed Foreign
Minister in order that he might the more
easily give this policy effect.

General Joseph T. Terrence Dies
After Two Years. Illness.

General Joseph 7. Terrence Dies
After Two Years. Illness.
Gen. Joseph L. Terrence died Saturday
night at his home. So Bellevue place,
Chicago. Although he had been confined
TO his bed for only two weeks, he had
been suffering two years with Brights
disease. Gen. Terrence was born March
is, 1S43, in Mercer County, Pennsylva-
mia. Before he had reached his teens he
set out in the world to make his own way.
His first employment was in the blast
furnaces of Pennsylvania. There he
learned the blacksmith trade, and it was
not long until he was promoted TO the
foremanship of the furnaces. Gen. Tor
renee remained with the blast furnaces
until the breaking out of the civil war,
when he enlisted as private in Company
A, One Hundred and Fifty-ninth Regi-
ment, Ohio Volunteer Infantry. Soon
after his enlistment he became a non
commissioned officer During his services
in the army he was wounded seriously
four times. After the war he went to
Newcastle, in his native State, where he
was re-engaged in the work of supervis-
ing furnaces. In 1869 Mr.. Terrence came
to Illinois and became connected with the
Chicago Iron Company at Bridgeport.
Five years later he was appointed colonel
of the Second Regiment of the Illinois
National Guard. In 1876 Gov. Shelby VI.
Cullom promoted him to brigadier gem
erai. just a short time before the riots of
1877. The authorities adopted measures
placing Gen. Terrence in absolute COM
mand Of the city during the riots.

which threatened to annihilate its gold
reserve and leave II without dollar with
which to redeem the perfect avalanche
of greenbacks that poured over the coun-
ter. Timely aid came from Chicago and
other sources, and when the outpouring
of gold finally stopped the $12,OOO,OOO OF
few months ago, despite the frequent
additions made during that period, was
reduced to a bare $4,OO0,000. For once
the subtreasury had on hand more green
backs than 1t wanted. In two weeks
time $10,000,000 worth of them were
dumped over the counters and the gold
they represented withdrawn. There was
something like 100000 in gold in the
vaults when the run commenced. Chicago
was appealed to for aid and sent $4,000
600, and an equally large amount was
secured from the mint, while the $1,000
600 in British sovereigns recently re-
ceived from Australia were coined into
double eagles at the mint and carted to
the subtreasury. Only $4,O00,0OO of the
entire amount was left after the furry
was over. That has since been increased
by the deposit of over $1.OOO,OOO upon
which greenbacks have been withdrawn,
and there is every indication that the
furry is over. Much of the gold with
drawn went beyond the mountains. The
subtreasuries in San Francisco and at
New Cork are the only ones authorized
to redeem greenbacks. Usually the de-
mand for greenbacks is steady at the sub
treasury there, as exchange is almost in
variably in favor Of New York, and it
costs less to ship greenbacks than gold.

instances the crop is insufficient to supply
home requirements. The Canada crop
is among the largest on record. Exports
from the Atlantic coast are already

Fourteen Despairing Brides.

At Hounslow yesterday there was
remarkable scene when the Fourth
Hussars left by the 9:15 train for South,
ampton en- route for India. A detach-
ment Of 400 men In full marching or
der, and under the command of Col.
Ramsey, proceeded from Hounslow
barracks to the station, where they
were awaited by an immense crowd
of friends, chiefly females. Among
the latter were fourteen brides of only
weeks experience of married life,
and these were In n most distressed
condition, the poor women crowding to-
gether and clinging with the fondest
affection to their husbands. The sol
diers quickly entrained, and after the
last good-bys had been spoken the
train steamed out of the sta ton, leav-
ing the dlsconsolate brides weeping
Historically in heap on the platform.
The fourteen privates were married

The Rockport express, on the Eastern
division of the Boston and Maine RAN
road, had narrow escape Friday from
being precipitated into Saugus River, at
Lynn, Mass, through the failure of the
air brakes to work. AS it was. the en-
CINE of the train went into the river,
while the tender and first passenger car
hung over the edge, within few feet OF
the rushing water. The draw was opened
to allow coal barge to pass through,
and was partially closed when the Rock
port express came in sight. As usual
the train slackened speed as it approach
ed the draw, but instead of stopping at
the signal it pushed on in spite of every
effort on the part of the engineer to apply
the brakes and bring it to standstill.
Engineer Doherty then whistled for the
hand brakes, and the train hands. by
quick work. managed to stop the train.
Engineer Doherty and Fireman Jameson
were rescued from the river somewhat in
jured. There were nearly 300 passengers
on the train.

Since the recent visit of the Russian
ambassador, NJ. dc Nelidoff, to the Sui
tan, and the long, important audiences
which followed, it Is noticeable that eere
has been another change for the better
in the attitude of Abdul Hamid and his
advisers toward the Armenians in par
ticular and the reform policy in general.
1t Is learned that Nj. de Nelidoff used
very plain language to the Sultan, and 1t
is apparent that the latter was convinced
that the Russian ambassador was in
earnest. This, supplemented by grave re-
ports received by the Sultan from the
Turkish embassies at London and Paris,
pointing out the distrust and irritation
caused by the attitude of Turkey, has
brought about eager professions upon the
part of the Turkish Government of a
desire to honestly push the work of re-
form and, as beginning, five Christian
deputy governors have been appointed in

DEFICIENT IN AFFAIRS.

Novel Defense offered by an Ex-

Something entirely new in the way of

Court of Special Sessions. The defend
ant was accused by w. G. Van Antwerp,
superintendent of an insurance company,
with having nsed S13.J6, collected on a
policy. The plea was that he was trOu-
bled with ''clergymen's mind" He was
formerly n clergyman in England and
here, and his counsel, having entered u
plea of guilty, urged that his life and
training had made him abnormally def
Gent in knowledge of worldly matters.

thing in a clergyman's training predis-

pended.
