JAPAN ANXIOUS FOB INDEMNITY.

Demands an Assurance That the Paw.
ment Due In May win BE Promptly
Met-Russia Demands Sovereignty
Oyer Port Arthur and Ta- I.sen- W an .
Pekin, March Last Friday Yano
Fumio, the Japanese minister to China,
demanded an official signed assurance
of the payment of the indemnity due
next May. The Chinese government in
structed Yang Yu, the Chinese min
lister at st. Petersburg, to urge Russia
to evacuate Port Arthur. Russia de-
ferred a decision, alleging that the pres
ence Of Russian warships at Port Ar
thur was beneficial to China and ia
vorable to peace in the Orient.
Russia is now opposing the Anglo
German loan. M Pavloff, the Russian
charge d'affaires lodged q formal pro-
test last Thursday and demanded a
quid pro quo. The details of the Rus
sian demand are not yet made public,
but Russia's attitude Is regarded as
Ilimical to peace in the far east.
On Friday M. Gerard, the French
minister to China, made a similar COM
compensation in the south.
England and Germany are now re-
garded as having obtained their legiti-
mate aspirations, and Russia and
France desire to secure theirs.
The Chinese acknowledge that the
British late loan negotiations were dis
interested and calculated to advance
China's welfare and to maintain her
independence.
Russia has demanded that China sur
render to her all sovereign rights over
Port Arthur and Ta-Lien- Wan for the
same period and on the same conditions
as in the case of Germany at kiao-
Chou. Besides this Russia demands the
right to construct railway. under the
same conditions as the trans Manchu-
rian railway, from Petuna on that line
(near the River SungarD, to Kwang-
Chung Tzu, Mukden and Port Arthur.
Five days are given for reply, and the
agreement must be signed within a
month.
In the event of Noncompliance Rus
STA threatens to move her troops into
Manchuria. China will perforce yield.
By this agreement Russia will obtain
the right to send soldiers into Leao-
Tung, ostensbly for the protection Of
the railway engineers.
Russian assurances that the ports
will be open to the world are deceptive,
inasmuch. while conforming to these
assurances, Russia can convert either
port into second and stronger Vladi-

CERTAINLY the President won't recall
General Lee. He suits the people in the
United States and it is hardly possible he
has done anything to make himself objec.
tionable to the Spanish Government. Tho
people appeared to be governed only by
one thing and that is war. You can hear
it wherever you go. If all the men should
take up arms against Spain that talk SO
loudly. there would be few able bodied
men left in Wilmington to carry on the
industrial establishments. The people are
actually war mad and it won't take much
for them to declare war themselves, if The
President and Congress neglect this oppor-
tunity for a scrap.

CONFIRMATION OF THE GERMAN
CROWN PRINCE.

At the ceremony of the confirmation
Of the German Crown Prince Eite1
Friedrich at Potsdam on Sunday, both
the Princes recited in an audible voice
their personal confessions of faith
That of the Crown Prince was to the
effect that he gave thanks to God for
his kind faithful parents and for his
teachers; he intended steadfastly to
adhere to the faith; he would ask God
to show him no other way than that of
the earnest discipleship of Jesus
Christ; he would love his parents and
his brothers and sisters and all his fell
low-men with all his heart; he would
make no difference between high and
low and would learn gentleness and
mercy from the pattern of Christ. In
his position he had not only more
rights but also more duties; in his walk
and conversation he knew that he
ought to be an example to others. The
concluding words of the confession
were: 81 promise that will always try
to be the first in my resolve to serve
my King and my country to the last
drop of my blood, and ever to approve
myself living member of the Evan
gelical Church SO help me God, amen!'
At the close of the service the EN-
peror, the Empress, and the Empress

Continued from Ninth Page.)

and is made up largely of capitalists
who have been active in the iron-ore
business in the Lake Superior region,
have also done an extensive business in
Cuba. The Colbys, the Elys and the
Rockefellers are the chief stock owners.
A few years ago the company acquired
control of several thousand acres Of
valuable iron ore deposits between Sam
tiago and Guantanamo, on the south
side of Cuba. A very large amount of
money was expended in exploring the
property, opening mines and establish
ing facilities for handling the output.
There Is no harbor nearer than Santia-
go and in order to ship ore economical
ly it was necessary to construct an ar
tificial harbor by building a great
breakwater on the open coast. Txten-
sive loading piers were built, large
enough to load four steamers at a time.
All these preparations were practically
completed several years before they
were put to any use. No shipments
We're made, because the company
adopted the policy Of waiting for adj
vantageous market conditions. The
restriction Of the duty on iron-ore from
seventy-five cents to forty cents per
ton, and the increased demand for Bes-
semer iron ore in eastern Pennsylvania,
finally started the shipments. The
Spanish American Iron Co. made d
contract with the Johnson Steamship
Co. to transport thirty thousand tons of
ore to ports north of Cape Hatteras. A
good deal of it was discharged at Port
Richmond, and carried to furnaces
along the line of the Philadelphia and
Reading railroad.
That is the third large company
which has opened iron mines in Cuba
The oldest and largest is the Jaragua
Iron Co., which is jointly owned by the
Pennsylvania Steel Co. and the Bethle-
hem Iron Co. The Sagua Iron Co. was
also organized in Philadelphia. 1t is
estimated that these three companies
have invested not less than ten million
dollars in Cuban mining property,

THE EMPLOYMENT OF WOMEN
8fs AND INFANT MORTALITY.

AND INFANT MORTALITY.
The fact that long hours of labor I'M
der unhealthy surroundings are perni-
cious to the young both morally and
physically is patent to every one, but
there Is another point of view from
which the employment of women
should be regarded. That is it's effect
upon infant mortality This is a mat
ter which 1t is difficult, almost impos-
sible, to gauge in all it's bearings. An
attempt to get at the root of the evil
has lately been made in Great Britain,
by Miss Callet, who has given the re-
suits of her efforts in a paper based
upon an ANALYSIS of the statistics of
the occupations of females in the Uni
ted Kingdom. 1t is freely admitted in
this paper that the whole question of
the employment of married women
cannot be settled by statistics, and
many points bearing upon the subject
have been passed by, but the impor-
tant question of how far the health of
Infants is affected by the employment
of their mothers is fully entered into,
and many interesting facts are brought
to light. It has always been the popu-
udE UG1lGl tudC Lie lllSuGSL IdLG VI III
FAINT mortality is in those districts
where women are most largely en-
pIoyed in outside work, but according
TO Miss Callet such is not the case.
She, from the result OF her investiga-
tions, is of the opinion-while admit
ting that the employment Of women
with young children is an obvious evil
that the factory employment of Wo-
men is not the main cause of the ex-
cessive rate of infantile mortality in
the industrial centers. The growing
number Of premature births had been
attributed to the increasing employ
ment of women. It is, however, point
ed out that in the purely agricultural
counties of eastern England the death
rate from this cause was higher than
in any other part of the country. Miss
Callet says there seems ''to be a kind
of correspondence between employ
ment of women and girls and infant
mortality, but is this a relation of
cause and effect? When it is remem-
bered that no account is taken of the
kind of employment or conditions of
work, whether the majority employed
are married or single, well paid or i'll
paid, we may well hesitate to come to
a conclusion on such slight evidence
1t may be stated, however, without
fear of contradiction, that when a wo-
man has very young children, those
children are much more likely to thrive
under her personal care than under
other conditions. Therefore, unless
she is absolutely compelled to work
outside, it will greatly conduce to the
well-being of the children for her to
remain at home.-Pediatrics.
