MAHQMNEDANS To WAGE WAR
TO UNFURL GREEN BANNER OF
THE PROPHET.
Rebellion In Chinese Turkestan-
Massacre of Thirty Buddhist I'm
believers Reported.

Victoria, B. c., April 17.-Late Chi
nese papers say news comes from Lam
chou, capital of Kansu province, that
the Mahommedan communities to the
northwest of the city, known as the
Salah Mussulmans, the most savage
and bigoted of that faith in the Chinese
dominions, have rebelled. The green
sacred banner of the prophet has been
upfurled by their akhoon, or chief
mulIa, and the word passed to all the
Mahommedan townships in Kansu,
Shensi and Chinese Turkestan to wage
war to the knife upon the Buddhist I'M
believers.
A telegram from Governor Jao of
Chinese Turkestan, whose capital is
Urnmsti, has also been received at
Pekin, reporting considerable unrest
among the Tunganis (Chinese Ma
hommedans) and Tarantchi's in Kuldja,
and Turks in Kashgaria.
A later dispatch from Viceroy Tao of
Kansu has been received at Pekin, re-
porting the massacre of over thirty
Chinese Buddhists by rebel Salah Ma
homedans. y general contiagration is
feared with the return of warm wealth
er in April or May, when communica-
ton becomes easier, unless a strong
army is assembled in Kansu.
The viceroy complained of the with
drawal to Pekin of Generals Tung
Fuchsiang and Chang Chun, with their
best troops, whose sanguinary battles
for the past twenty years against the
Mahommedans have made them greatly
feared by the latter, not only in Kinsu,
but also in Chinese Turkestan, and
that in consequence the whole north
west is practically defenseless and at
the mercy of the Mahommedans, if they
should unite together and rebel

Captain Jack Crawford, the poet
scout left here one year ago to work
the properties and look after the min
ing interests of the Klondilke, Yukon
& Copper River company in the frozen
gold fields of Alaska. Now he is sorry
that he went. According to a letter
received yesterday by General r. H.
Warfield, the poet scout has lost the
little fortune he possessed and has been
turned adrift by the company because
he has refused to send out fictitious
and glowing accounts of the richness of
the cOmpany's claims.

INSANITY THE DEFENSE.
Prosecution Closes In the Case Of
Mrs. George.

Canton O.. April 1.-THE state con-
cluded its direct testimony against
Mrs. George at 1925 o'clock this after
noon, and the defense viii now have IFS

There was a strong intimation today
that the lines of defense will be tenn
porary Neutrality-suspicious. insanity.
This came from the bench in a deci-
sion admitting testimony bearing on
the relations between the accused and
SaXton dating back as far as the sos.
The judge announced that these rela-
lions We're admissible if insanity is to
be the defense, or if insanity is to be
in any degree relied upon as part of
the defense They were further ad-
generalization or elaboration, and also
because the state has shown some of
the relations between SaXton, Mrs.
George and Mrs. Althouse.
This decision also opens the doors for
all of what has heretofore been re-
garded as doubtful testimony. The
defense is now permitted to show all of
the relations existing between Saxton
and Mrs, George. and this will involve
the litigation in which Sample C.
George, the former husband, is con-
cerned.
1t is further inferred that the ruling
will permit the state in rebuttal to go
into similar testimony regarding the
former life of the accused. and the eff
feet will be, as now viewed. materially
to lengthen the proceedings.
The two principal witnesses are yet
to be heard. They are the two women
in the case-Mrs. Althouse and Mrs.
George. The state has been wanting
Mrs. Althouse, but she has not yet been
found
The defense has not outlined it's
plans, but it is generally expected that
there are several surprises in store for
this week. especially if the examination
extends into all the alleged wrongs Mrs.
George claims to have suffered after
deserving her husband for SaXton.

light jean material during the torrid
heat of the summer. This decision has

LONDON FIRETRAP ABLAZE,
People In a Fashionable Block Have
a Marrow Escape.

London, April 1.-THE British me-
tropolis narrowly escaped a calamity
today which might have rivalled the
horrors witnessed at the dest~-Gtion by
fire recently of the Windsor motel in
New York
Hyde park court, Albert Gale, eleven
stories high, one of the finest and most
fashionable blocks of resident flats,
overlooking the famous Rotten Row,
caught fire this morning. The fire
broke out in the lower part of the
building and spread up the elevator
shaft with great rapidity. The flames
involved the upper stories before their
occupants We're aware of the danger.
When the alarm was raised the af-
frighted servants dropped from top
windows to a veranda on the ninth
story. The defective arrangements of
the London fire brigade were again
demonstrated and even when the fire
escapes reached the scene they were
too short TO reach the .people in the
upper stories, who only escaped with
the greatest difficulty, while the resi-
dents of the lower stories streamed out
could of their belongings.
The flames were not under control
until 1 o'clock, when the upper part of
the structure was Quilted. 1t is con-
Sidered lucky that the fire occurred in
daylight, as otherwise it would have
resulted in loss of life All the floors
were supposed TO be frenroof.
The investigation into the cause of
the fire shows it to have been due TO
