Tacoma. Wash, June 5.-The steam

bellion and riot seems to pervade
many parts of the Orient. Five thou
sand robbers are assembled in one
band in the mountains of Loyange,
<inchou district near Canton. Three
thousand are natives of that district
and the balance comprise groups of
marauders from other places. They
commit crimes of every description

their fancy dictates. The local officers

them.

VAN wvck-DiclAroR.
Now York's Mayor Is Creating . Great
Hubbnb In the Metropolis.

New York, June 2.-Mr. Van Wyck,
the first mayor OF Greater New York,
has proved n most disagreeable sur
prise all around. and If he continues
his present policy much longer lie
will demoralize Tammany as thor
oughly as he has disturbed the rest Of
the population.
A few short months only have been
needed to demonstrate to the salts
faction of all concerned that there
was a serious mistake in the selection,
and Mr. Croker has gone to Europe
to hide his chagrin, for although his
loyalty to Tammany is not ques-
toned, Mayor Van Wyck has proved
to be man of despotic disposition
and to possess an independence as au-
tocratic and an individuality ns
marked as that of the great sachem.
He is rendering faithful service to the
organization that elected him, but he
does 1t in his own way, at his own
time. and selects his own instru-
ments without regard to the opinions
or the preferences of the men who
placed him in power.
Mayor Van Wyck began his official
career by removing all the members
of the many boards and commissions
by which New York has for years
been governed and substituting men
of his own who We're willing to sub
nit to his dictations and obey his or
ders. Some of the boards and COM
missions believe themselves beyond
his jurisdiction. having been created
by the legislature and appointed by
the governor of the state, and have
appealed to the courts to protect them
in their official capacity, but Judge
Van Wyck has not been intimidated
by this movement. Whether he will
be sustained or not is n question, but
his confidence in his own authority is
mistaken.
His next step was to revise and re-
woke the regulations governing the
civil service of the municipality so as
to bring the subordinate officials under
his control. Then he attacked the
financial system of the several bor-
oughs comprising the city of Greater
New York, discrediting loans that
have been made from time to time
during the last several years for pub
lie improvements and other purposes.
suspending the payment of interest,
so that some of the bonds issued Mt
par are now quoted at 30 cents on the
dollar and will need an act of the leg
islature to restore their value.
His last act was to overhaul the po-
lice. He removed the three bipartisan
commissioners and appointed in their
places men who will obey his orders.
He removed the superintendent, Mr..
McCullngh, and placed at the head Of
the force captain named Devery,
who is devoted to Tammany and will
serve its interests. This was n direct
blow at the election system of the
city, because the bureau of elections
is n part of the police organization,
and unless something is done to de-
prive him of the power Mayor Van
Wyck may be able to control the next
state and presidential elections.
The Republicans and reformers have
become so thoroughly frightened that
they are now appealing to the gov
ernor to call special session of the
legislature for the purpose of cutting
Mayor Van Wyck's wings.
