CHINA is IN DANGER.

Ex-Minister Barrett Says England and
America Must Take Action at Once. +
Shanghai dispatch: John Barrett,
formerly United, States minister to
Siam, has returned here after visiting
Pekin and the principal Chinese ports.
He says the situation in China is Of the
most critical nature, and that Man
churia is no longer Chinese, but Rus
sian territory. He>asserts that New
Chwang, the chief northern port for
the movement of American products,
is also practically Russian and liable
to be closed any day The only per-
manent safeguard to paramount Amer
lean and British interests, Barrett
says, is the immediate and united
action by the interested governments
to defend the territory of the Chinese
empire, to enforce reforms in the gov
eminent, to prevent further cessions
of ports and provinces and insist upon
the 'open door" policy in all the ports
Of China, including the spheres of
influence claimed by Russia, Germany
and France. Otherwise, Barrett
contends, the impending partition Of
the Chinese empire will seriously cur
tail the field of trade by disastrouslv
affecting American and British in
Auence in Asia. gg8s .s.#! ..

around for lower priced lands. The
investigation shows that 1t is impos-
sible to meet these conditions success

being grown there each year, while as
many as $4,000 head of cattle were
shipped out this year. A representa-

United States Will Pay for Repatriation
of Spanish Troops.
PARIS, Dec. 13.-Further details have
been learned as to the wording of the
treaty, which provides that Cuba is to
be relinquished and that Porto Rico
and the Philippines are to be coded.
The Americans are to pay for the re-
~patrfaticn ofs thea spanis IN troops from
all the colonies. The Spaniards are to
return all prisoners held by them.
They are to retain possession OF all
military stores and munitions of war
in the Philippines and OF such ships as
have not been captured. The CONNER
cial treaties between the two nations,
which the war ruptured, are to be re-
newed at the convenience of the two
nations. The protocol makes nearly
600 typewriter pages. The United
States commissioners have been almost
overwhelmed with offers of dinners in
England, prompted by the desire of
prominent Englishmen to emphasize
the Anglo-American entente, but they
will remain in Paris until the day be-
fore sailing for the United States.

only one way to cure Deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an infamed condition Of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing.
and when it is entirely closed Deafness Is
the result. and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by catarrh, which Is nothing
but an inflamed condition Of the mucous
surfaces. vs. \ III .55E
