PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 4. Ii Hung
Chang paid flying visit TO this city and
was entertained by the Union League,
visited Independence hall and called on
John Russell Young. Although he had
not had an opportunity TO visit Cramps
shipyard as was planned, Ii found Charles
Cramp, the head of that establishment,
awaiting his arrival at the station in Phil
adelphia. He greeted Mr.. Cramp affeo-
tionately and engaged him In conversation
for about ten minutes. In reply to ques-
tion Mr.. Cramp told Ii that he was not
only the president of the company but the
designer Of all its ships
what have you dOnef"
81 have designed more ships and great
or variety Of them than any other man In
the world" was Mr.. Cramps reply. LII
inquired CLOSELY regarding the class Of
ships built at the Philadelphia yard and
then said; 81 find that most Of the nations
build their ships In England and France
Why is itG' Mr.. Cramps response was
that there were various reasons for this
condition. As a general thing, he said,
the countries that buy ships In England
do 80 al the behest OF mOneyed syndioates
and bankers who have financial inteEests
which make it more desirable TO them that
English shipyards be patroniEed. Ii ex-
pressed over and over again his regret at
not being able to personally inspect the
great shipyard on the Delaware and ended
the interview by inviting Mr.. Cramp to
visit him In WaghinRton

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.-M Hung Chang

oluding three members of the cabinet, the
commanding general Of the army and sew

Responding to toast, the vioeroy said
"In acknowledging the hospitality OK

affording me an opportunity before my
departure from the capital of this country
to renew once more the sincere expression
OF my gratitude and thankfulness to the
American government and citizens for
the welcome and reception offered to me
as representative Of my august master, the
emperor of China, and the personifloation
of the Chinese empire
"Sinoe the establishment of our treaty
relations there have always been evidences
Of good fellowship between our two ooun-
tries, but all these evidences, dare say,
have now been collapsed by the oordiallty

government and citizens in welcoming

ress of the United States of America as

visit here, to be struck and impressed by
the liberty and freedom enjoyed by the
people; by the welfare and prosperity in
their agricultural, Industrial and CONNER
cial pursuits; by the characteristics Of their
classical, historical, philosophical and
poetical literature; by the manner Of ap-

mankind and by their display Of their ar

kind enough to show me.
"These impressions will Garry home,

The Yield of Years Crop.

Old corn is now going on the
market in large amounts.
The wheat yield will not be nearly
so large this year as last.
Heavy hogs will be numerous as
a result of the large supply of corn.
Prices will not likely advance.
The Nebraska farmer gets 7%
cents per bushel for his corn and
the railroad Is cents.
The oat cropis $50, 900, 900 bushels
above the average, and the prices
are exceeding low.
The apple crop will be good in the
New England States, New York,
Pennsylvania, Michigan and Iowa,
and fair in several others. In other
parts the yield will be below the
average. The percentage for the
country by the latest government
reports is 64.5.

EARL Ii HAS LEFT Us

NIAGARA FALLS, Sept. 7.--The special
train bearing Ii Hung Chang and his par
ty has arrived at this place, and the Chi
nese envoy has been delighted with two
hours inspection Of the wonders Of Mag
ara, visiting all the principal points Of in
terest on the American side
At the electric powerhouse of the Mag
ara Falls Power company the distinguish
ed visitor had his first experience with
American electricity, the result being as
startling as IL was unexpected. With his
usual curiosity and desire to make person
oil investigation Of the machinery before
him, he poked at o switchboard with his
walking stick. The metal ferFule closed
oirouit Instantly, and LIS stiok was vio-
lently thrown from his grasp. he was
naturally much astonished at the effect Of
the sticks contact with the switchboard,
but fortunately he suffered no damage be-
yond a good scare However, be decided
that he had seen enough, and he went to
his rooms, where he remained until bed
time
On the journey TO this place Ii and his
party passed their first night In an Ameri-
oan sleeping car. Previous TO this novelty
th0y enjoyed dinner In dining car. This
meal, which was especially prepared by
the Pennsylvania railroad dining car peo-
pie, was quite elaborate. The menu card
was decorated with American and Chinese
flags intertwined and a facsimile of the
autograph of Earl Ii, done In yellow.
While en- route II sent for George W.
Boyd, assistant general passenger agent Of
the Pennsylvania Railroad company who
piloted the train over the lines Of his com
pany. II spent about two hours question
ing him about railroads.
The deep interest he shows in railroad
matters oonvlnoes those who have paid at
tention TO the subject that his principal
object In visiting this country is TO study
American railway construction and man
agement with View to the adoption Of
some Of the features In proposed general
extension Of the Chinese railway system.
In fact, the viceroy intimated that ne Is
negotiating for the services Of an Ameri-
can civil engineer, who, II he accepts the
offer made him, will go TO China In the
near future and take charge Of the railway
extension scheme now being outlined. Ii
says there are only about 200 miles Of (sin-
gle traok) railroad In China at present.
Only three trains are run each day, and
there is no traffic at night, the system be-
ing so crude and the liability TO accident
a constant menace.
At 8 O'Clock this morning Ii Hung
Chang and his party crossed the river to
Canada Sir Henri g. Jolly de I.otbiniere
welcomed the travellers on behalf Of the
Canadian government, and General Ruger
ceased his official connection with the
viceroy as the representative of President
Cleveland.

LONDON, Sept. 9.--The Times this morn
ing publishes lengthy letter from its Ha-
vana correspondents, dealing with the state
Of affairs In Cuba, In the course OF which
ne says.
Careful study for the past four months
oonvinoes me that, despite serious losses,
the rebels are holding their own against
the troops. The wealthy agricultural dis
triots are completely under rebel control,
and the whole sympathy Of the islanders
is with the rebels. Even Havana, which is
more Spanish than any other town or dis
trict, is permeated with animosity toward
Spanish rule and Is honeycombed with in
triguers on behalf Of the rebellion.
1T is quite false 70 call II a color strug-
gle In the fighting ranks Of the insur-
gents the proportion is 10 per cent Of
whites to 30 per cent Of negroes.
Another fallaoy Is the rebel contention
that Spanish misrule originated the rebel
lion. The crisis In the sugar trade was
much more formidable in fomenting the
revolt. The struggle Is prolonged by the
facility with which the insurgents obtain
ammunition and stores Of all kinds from
abroad and from every town In Cuba un-
der the noses Of the Spanish officials with
impunity, the seizure Of contraband being
most rare.
insurgents Are hitter.
1T is now too late 10 compromise By
granting reforms. The Cuban Insurgents
would not now accept full autonomy as
the price Of yielding their arms. 1 say this
advisedly after q careful examination Of
the situation from all points of view.
Spain will be compelled 10 conquer or TO
abandon tho island. This irreooncilable
attitude Of the rebels Is largely due 10 the
wholesale execution of rebels after sum-
mary trial. These drastic measures only
increase the hatred of Spain without deter
ring recruits from Joining the rebellion.
Another reason Is the hopeless pros
peot Of any rehabilitation Of Cuban credit
while the island is under Spanish domin-
ion. Taxation must be heavily Increased
to pay the burdens Of the war. Hence the
people with vested interests prefer the risk
and uncertainties OF Independence coupled
with the earnest hope that at no distant
date Cuba will become q state In the
American Union"
