oIo GERMANY ACT MasTILY7
Chinese Accsuet 81 klaechoau AFFAIR Gives
Another Aspect 10 the Situation.

Washington, Nov. 19.-Mr. WI Ting
Fang, the Chinese minister has receiv-
ed the Following Official statement from
Pekin relative to the seizure Of Kiao-
ctoau sound island: Upon the killing
OF two German missionaries by bandits
In the district of Ku Yen. In Shantung
a decree was issued pre- emptorily
commanding the governor Of Shan Tug
to order the high officials Of that prov
ince to take immediate measures for
the arrest and punishment OF the Of
tenders. On the 18th inst. the COVER
nor reported the arrest OF four culprits
and this was communicated to the Ger
man minister. But German wanships
had on the 18th advanced to Kiaochoau
island, landed troops and after occupy
ing all the high ground gave the gar
rlson 48 hours to retire. The German
minister did not give the Tsungli va
men any notice. On the evening OF the
superintendent of the. northern ports
giving a report Of this occurrence oc-
casoned the greatest surprise. China,
in view of the friendly relations be.
tween the two countries. thereupon
ordered the governor of Shantung 20
keep the garrison under strict control.
to withdraw the troops to positions
outside of the limits of the island and
to enjoin them net to make any move
without express Instructions"
This official statement places new
complexion on the press cables in that
it indicates that the Chinese govern
ment had already taken active steps
for the punishment Of the murderers OF
the two German missionaries before
the landing of the German troops at
Kiaochoau and the occupation of the
fort. The remarkable thing In connec-
ton with Germany's summary action
is the fact set forth in the foregoing
cable that the Chinese foreign Office
was given no notification that the seiz-
ure was contemplated. Such a pro-
ceeding is said to be fragrant breach
Of international comfy and Is intre-
preted in some diplomatic quarters as
evidence that Germany used her griev-
ance as a Dretext for occupation of the
island. 1t is believed that possibly
Germany's object is to use the occupa-
ton Of the island as a lever for COM
pelling trade concessions for Germany.

hundreds of dollars worth of cloth,
stolen from the Farwell mill at Lisbon,

that Agent Miles learned that cloth
was being stolen from the mill and EN-
ployed State Detective F. L. Odlin of
Lewiston, to catch the thieves. As
soon as it was learned that Mr.. Odlin
was in town and had taken out search
warrants. the destruction of goods was
begun. Odlin got warrants and began
to raid the houses. In one he found 10
dozen sheets all made upof white CLOTH
In another house Mr.. Odlin says, he
found nearly 200 yards of cloth dyed a
dirty brown which the woman intended
to use as the lining for quilts. The
guilty people hid the cloth in the
ground. under stables. threw it into
the river and burned it up. One woman
who was arrested said that she knew
of family that sat up till most morn
ing burning cloth in the stove to get
rid Of 1t so that the detective should
not find it II he called. All told, the
officer thinks he seized about 500 yards
of cloth. This employees had carried
away from the mill under clothes and
in other ways. Matte Russell, Joseph
Russell, Frank Butler, Rosey Butler,
Philip Monroe, alias Desjardins, and
Josephine Kicker were arrested,
charged with stealing, and fined $40
and costs. One man hadn't money
enough to pay his fine, and asked
Agent Miles to lend him S. The agent,
who Is generous man, took the money
from his pocket and loaned it to the
man. After all had paid their fines the
agent told them If they would come
back to work and behave themselves

dinner at the training table they were
taken in charge by the coachers sepa-
rately and kept aloof from the mad

giving the men a last opportunity to
perfect the all important formations.
The second team lined up against the
Varsity but were unable to hold their
own. Every member of the eleven will
enter tomorrow's game in as fina
physical condition as it is possible to
land them.
1t is impossible to get any expression
of opinion from the Yale coaches. The
arrival Of a large Princeton contingent.
however, has resulted In the raising
of Yale hopes. The New Jersey men
did not come into town armed with any
great amount Of bravado. On the con-
trary all except the vehement rooters
expressed uncertainty and anticipate
a splendid exhibition on the part of
Yale.
The hotels, tonight, are damned al
most to suffocation and the streets of
the city especially in the vicinity Of
the campus are alive with foot ball
followers. The snow, falling at inter-
walls throughout the day, ceased to fall
at $50 but began again at o'clock
and weaither-wise things look dis
