QUARRELS AND WAR.
The Inevitable Result of Land Grabbing
in China.


London, March 9.-The Daily Mail
publishes an interview this morning
with Lord Charles Beresford, quoting
the admiral as stating that he could say
little about his tour until he had COM
pleted his voluminous report to the as
ISOLATED chambers of commerce. which
sent him on his tour, but he insisted
that if all the powers began gra bling
land in China 1t could only result in
quarrels and war.
1t is absolutely necessary" he said,
ito keep China on her feet Better stand
UP now for the open door than venture
upon the dangerous course of spheres
of influence. do not suggest cut and
dried alliance. I do not think America
would join such an alliance. But Amer
lea, England, Germany and Japan
might agree to work together to MAIN
tain the open door. OF the six men
who direct Chinas policy, four have
never been outside of Pekin. Ii Hung
Chang has no real power. The en-
press dowager is the real power, and a
very clever woman. She signs the pop
ular ediets herself and makes the en-
peror sign the unpopular ones. The pro-
vincial rulers are more progressive than
those at Pekin. They favor the open
door policy, but they think we are
afraid of Russia. We must help stiffen

Atlanta, Ga, March S.-The 10th i'm
munes, colored, Colonel Jones COM
manding, who were mustered out at
Macon to-day, began to show their i'll
temper as soon as the train bearing
the negroes home began to move out Of
Macon. Producing revolvers and other
arms, which they in some way man
aged to smuggle with them, they began
firing from the windows. Bullets flew
in every direction as the train sped on,
and passersby were compelled to seek
shelter. Luckily only one person was
shot in Macon, Will Goodyear, a 16-
year-old white boy, whose arm was
fractured by ball. AS the train passed
the various stations on the road the
rioting was renewed, shots being fired
from the train at the people standing
on the platforms.
AT Griffin, Ca, where the first section
OF the train stopped at 2:30 O'Clock this
afternoon, occurred the most serious
trouble of the day. The regiment came
over the Central Georgia railroad in
three sections. When the train stopped
at Griffin, the negroes. who, by this
time had filled up on whiskey. began
firing their pistols and yelling like In
dians. Over 200 shots were fired and
the police were powerless to resist.
The city was at the mercy Of the
negroes, who kept up fusillade of
shots until the train was carried be-
yond the city limits.
The news of the outrageous conduct
spread rapidly over Griffin, and it was
determined that the next section of the
regiment should be held in check.
Mayor Davis ordered out the Griffin
Rifles on his own responsibility, as
there was no time to lose In addition
to the militia the mayor deputized
nearly hundred citizens to assist the
officers in preserving the peace and pro-
tecting the city About $40 o'clock the
second section came in sight and above
rattle of the firearms which were being
discharged Unfortunately.
When the train came to a standstll
the negroes saw 200 heavily armed men,
who commanded them to keep quiet
The negroes were aWed, and with a
few exceptions. were as docile as lambs.
To those who proved fractions cracked
heads were administered When the
train pulled out from the depot and the
negroes thought they were out of reach
of the citizens they began firing at
houses. AT the first shot volley was
poured into the disappearing train by
the citizens and militia. Unfortunate
ly, George Agee, a trainman, was shot
In the abdomen and fatally wounded,
and one negro was clipped on the Shout
der by bullet.
AS the several sections came into the
Union depot here, they were met by the
police reserved, heavily armed. The
negroes were evidently awed and gave
the police no trouble The 10th was re-
cruted from all parts of the country

The wool market is very quiet. But few

shortly after the seizure of the Samoan
government by Mataafa. had an inter
view with that noted chief. Mataafa.
when asked why he had been pro-
claimed king, said that Malietoa Lau-

right to elect new kim and he was
chosen. According to Mataafa's view,
this was not in violation of the Berlin
treaty, and in the version of the treaty
printed in Samoa, there is no stipula-
ton made by Count Bismarck that
Mataafa should never be king. Mataafa
admitted having been warned that
there was a stipulation against him be-
ing made king, and said he approa ched
the German consul about the matter
and the German consul said the Ger

and now had no objection to his be-
coming king. The protocol which con-
tains the stipulation against Mataafa
was not attached to the treaty printed
for the Samoans Mataafa declared
that he sought to be king so as to bring
peace to Samoa.

LESSONS OF THE WAR
A Momentous Change in Naval
Warfare.
DEWEY THE sTRATEGIsT
America Was Terribly Businesslike.
SPANS Pathetic Parade of Quixotic
Gallantry = Should Have
Seizsd Minorca. e."

London March 8.--Vice Admiral Phil
ip Howard Colomb, retired, lectured
this afternoon on the lessons of the
Spanish-American war before the MEM
bers of the United Service institute
After dealing with the impossibility of
secrecy in warfare hereafter, owing to
the vigilance of the press and the neces-
sity for protecting cables in shallow
water, he said he thought that if Spain
had showed real comprehension Of
strategy the United States would not
have been successful. The sure way for
the United States would have been for
her to send a sufficient force to the
coast of Spain to balance the forces
known to have been in Spanish ports,
and to send a squadron to the Cape
Verde islands the moment it was known
a Spanish fiotilla was assembling there,
If. he added, the Island of Minorca had
been seized as a base nothing offensive
on the other side of the Atlantic would
have been attempted by Spain.
The lesson to be deduced was, ac-
cording to the lecturer, that the Ameri-
can strategy was hazardous in SO far as
1t departed from the stereotyped rules
of naval warfare, Admiral Cervera's
ships were lost sight of, causing anx-
iety on the American coast, and oblig-
ing the Americans to keep squadrons
wholly in defensive attire instead of
maintaining command of the sea. 1t
was clear, he added, that If there had
been coal supplies at Santiago de Cuba,
and If Admiral Cervera's squadron had
been reasonably efficient instead of a
miserable abortion all of 1t could
have purposed to effect by entering
Santiago might have been effected
without any interference upon the part
of the United States navy.
From the actions between the Spanish
forts and American ships, the speaker
deduced the idea that very inefficient
batteries were able to keep ships at a
distance. Regarding the purely tacti-
cal questions involved. the admiral
said it was plain Admiral Dewey took
advantage of the superiority of his
guns and gunners, and placed himself
in SO distant position that neither the
Spanish ships nor the Spanish batteries
were able to reply adequately to his
fire. The whole thing, continued the
lecturer, was terribly busness-like on
the American side, with a pathetic par
AIDE of auixotic gallantry on the other.
In conclusion, Admiral Colomb COM
the American ships were sent from
Washington, which he. considered was
momentous3 change in naval warfare.

Used Their Clubs.

Nashville, Tenn, March 8.-About 500
men of the 9Th imnunes mustered out
in Chattanooga, reached here just be-
fore midnight last night. Fifty police
and detectives were at the station to
preserve order. The sergeant who had
shot two people at Chattanooga was
searched for but not found. The police
used their clubs freely in forcing the
negroes to give up their pistols and re-
main in the cars, but there was no fir
ing. The police were refused admit
lance to one car by armed negroes at
the door. They forced their way in,
demanded all weapons. and In this car
there was much clubbing. some negroes
being badly beaten. The chief causes
of the trouble were refusal to remain in
the cars, to give up their pistols and
using insulting language to the police

The Story of the Revolution Which Failed
in Nicaragua.
New Orleans, March S.-The steam
ship Condor arrived tonight from
Bluefields, with Al passengers aboard,
mostly the Americans composing the
body known as rough riders, with Cap
tain ]. c. Kennedy in command. They
tell the story of the revolution which
failed. They had been sent to attack
Greytown. Marching overland, and the
San Jacinto, the gun boat which the
revolutionists seized, was kept close to
the shore to supply them with rations
and aid in the attack. When they got
half way they ran into another gun
boat, which Nicaragua had borrowed
from Honduras. The San Jacinto could
have sunk the enemy, but turned tail
and fed. The Hondurean gave pursuit,
but when she got near enough to use
her stationary gun the San Jacinto ran
UP the white flag. Her captain made
terms for the soldiers as well, and then
both boats steamed UP and made
known the fact that the revolution was
over and that Reyes had fled. They
went back to Bluefields and found the
revolution really over. Eleven Ameri-
cans had led victory at Rama, but
after that were deserted by the natives
and We're compelled to return to Blue
fields. Reyes had been told that his
armies were defeated, and that the Nj
caraguans In the interior had Joined the
Zela standard. The rough riders were
taken aboard the Condor and sailed for
America under the terms made with
General Rubin after the gunboats met
General Rubin is now In Jail at Blue
fields for letting the insurgents off so
easily.
A Spanish priest at Rima, who aided
the insurgents, was to have been shot
for the prominent part he took in
breeding revolt, but he slowed away on
the Condor and came to America in
safety.
