THE CHINESE WALL.

the Red Button aud an attache of the
Tsung. Li-Yamen (Chinese Foreign
OHice) and who is q visitor in Philadel-
phia at the Lafayette Hotel, said yester
day, in conversation stout the alleged
intention to tear down the great wall
Of China:
"The mighty undertaking that is be-
fore our Government in the destruction
of the eighth wonder OF the world is q
proof that China is about to take q
giant stride toward better and q
stronger civilization. The mighty wall
created by the Emperor I'll 2000 years
ago is no longer safeguard against the
assaults OF an army armed with the
weapons of today.
For many years the Chinese government
has studied and pondered the utility OF the
Tartar wall, and it is now concsded that 1t Is
no longer needed. The immense amount OF
material in its composition will suffice to
build 100 cities like Philadelphia
"In the northern portion of our vast en-
pire there are mighty rivers that traverse
regions thickly settled with towns and viii
lagos. In the rainy seasons tuesS iNei'
frequently overflow their banks and carry
death and devastation to thousands of fami-
lies. Shortly after one of these disasters,
about yesr.sgo, the Empress sent Ii hung
to visit the scene of the great flood and sd-
wise what ought TO be done.
"On his return to the capital he told her
Imperial Majesty of the mi City river in the
heart OF America snd how it WAS prevented
from sweeping away thu cities along IFS
shores. An imperial decree went forth to
pull down the wall and dyke the rebeilious
river. China will soon control the mighty
