CHINESE ATTACK
 FOREIGNERS Incidents of Riot the Order of
 the Day. THE ORDER OF THE PRIESTS Is to Cultivate a Feeling of Adherence for Foreigners, Refuse to Rent Them Houses and Decline to Listen
 to Christianity.
THE ORDER OF THE PRIESTS

Shanghai, Jan. 9.-Authentic reports have reached here of recent date from all sections of the Chinese empire, indication that riot and attack upon the foreigners is the order of the day. The attacks seem to be that of isolated ruffians rather than of a concerted action on the part of the populance.
 In one of the central provinces, Hupep, a riot was instigated by the students of the military academy. Property was stolen and the members of several native churches were scattered over the country. Seventeen leaders of the riots have been arrested and are standing trial A chapel of the Wesleyan mission was destroyed during the riot.
 In Canton in the very south of China, where most of the traveling is by the riv- CTS and canals steam launches and boats held up by hands of ruffians and recently a European woman missionary was brut- ally treated, her boat being held up in the river. The men, overpowering her coolies, boarded 1t by force and robbing her of her money left her in sorry plight. :.
 From Formosa, just off the coast or Central China, authentic reports come that the whole country is disturbed. Repeated attacks by armed bands of robbers are being reported day by day. Travel in the interior is unsafe at the present time
 In the well governed city or shanghai and in the European section there are con- firmed reports of insulting treatment of foreigners by Chinese. A prominent lady riding a wheel was insulted by China man, who spat In her face. Chinese sold- iers even in Shanghai have attempted to throw foreigners from their carriages. Boys in the streets are set by older people to follow at the heels of prominent Eu- ropean residents of the city, throwing mud and calling indecent names.
 In view of the fact that treaties ere soon to throw sections of Japan open to foreigners there are interesting reports of the Buddhist and Shinto priests assem- bled in one of the principal provinces to discuss the situation They have promul- gated the following four resolutions and re- quest all Japanese to be governed by them:
 'I To cultivate feelings of abhorrence of foreigners and to refuse on principle to sell or to buy of them anything whatsoever.
 "2. To refuse absolutely to rent houses or lands to foreigners.
 "S To refrain entirely from using foreign terms in speaking and writing.
 '4. To positively decline to listen to Chris tianity."

GENERAL STRIKE IS OFF.
It Is Not Thought It Will Be Accepted in All the
 Mills.

Boston, Feb. 14.-From advices received here tonight 1t seems to be the general opinion in mill circles that the recommen- dation of the textile unions that general strike be undertaken by the operatives in all New England cotton mills where re- auction of wages has occurred, will not be accepted in all places.
 It was intended at first that the energies of all unions should be directed to aiding the 5000 operatives of New Bedford and that strikes in the other centers should be de- ferred until the New Bedford trouble was settled, but as the weeks have passed the members of the unions in places where there are no strikes claim to have found that the rate of wages under the reduction is so small that the operatives have all they can do to make ends meet and are not able to help the New Bedford brethren.
 These facts being borne out by reports that the assistance received at New Bed- ford from the cotton mill employees else- where was disappointing. 1t is believed had much to do with the recommendation that a general strike be undertaken. The local unions will take action on the matter dur ing the next week or two and until vote Is taken 1t will be impossible to tell to what extent the action of yesterdays Bos- ton meeting will be endorsed.

REPUBLICANS TOLD TO
 BE IN THEIR SEATS

Washington, Feb. 14-There was con- siderable excitement. among the members of the house before assembling today owing to an imperative summons sent out late last night by one of the subordinate off, cials of the house to each of the republican members impressing the urgent necessity of his presence at the session today
 At first no one seemed to know the pur- port of this rallying call, and all sorts of rumors were afioat. All that was definitely known at first was that something in re- gard to Cuba was to be brought up in the house, although under the rules this was District of Columbia day. The galleries were crowded Among those in the gallery

BRYAN INVITED
To Appear Before the Louisiana Constitutional
 Convention.

New Orleans, Feb H.-The constitutional convention today listened to addresses by Hon. J. L.. M. Curry, agent of the Peabody fund, and ex-Justice Fenner, of the sue preme court, on the subject of education.
 It also adopted a resolution inviting William Jennings Bryan to make an ada dress before it's members. During the rest of the week the convention will do little active work beyond the introduction of bills. The suffrage committee decided to- day that all it's hearings should be in pub- lic There was apparent among the meme bers of the committee determination tJ let the world know precisely how the cons yention proposed to treat the suffrage question.

ALIENS AMENDMENT
 ADVERSELY REPORTED

Washington, Feb. H.-senator Morgan today reported from the committee on foreign relations the amendment offered by Senator Allen, of Nebraska, recognizing the belligerency of Cuba. The report was against making it part of the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill, but the report, which was quite long, stated that the senate had already acted on this mat ter and was still of the same opinion and would be glad to have the house cooperate in securing a recognition of belligerency.
 After quoting the amendment, the conn mittee says 'In terms this proposed

of the American people" exclaimed MT. Terry, "and don't you forget it."
 ''It is being considered by the proper au- thorities," nstorted Mir. Quigg
 Mir. Cooper, (rep.) of Wisconsin, called attention to the fact that early in the ses- sion during the consideration of the di- plomatic bill, MT. Hit, chairman of the foreign affairs committee, had stated on the floor in explicit terms that Spain had abandoned the policy of concentration. He wanted to know why this inquiry when the committee knew from MT. Hitt's state ment that the policy of concentration had been reversed.
 MT. Quigg responded that this resolution would put the house in complete posses sion of the facts. There was no effort on the part of the minority to contest the or dering of the previous question and the resolution was adopted without dissent ing voice.

 The house then proceeded to the consid- eration of the District of Columbia busi- ness
 Several minor district measures were acted upon favorably, and a, joint resolu- tion accepting the invitation Of the gov ernment of Norway to an international fisheries exposition at Bergen, Norway, from May to September, was adopted.
 At 4:55 p. m. the house adjourned.
