ABORIGINAL AUSTRALIAN NAMES
m The I1ondon Chronicle.

From The London ChrOnlcIe.
Those who contend that the aboriginal names
should be retained in Australia as far as poss-
BILE, and not replaced by such as York 5"
buckingham etc, will be pleased with the
map of Victoria, divided into the new Federal
constituencies, which arrived by this weeks
mail Two-thirds of the constituencies
have names extracted from the vOcabularies of
the blacks, and although these words NAV he
highly poetic and expressive to those who know
what they mean, they are fearful and Jaw
breaking combinations to the uninstructed.
Here few of them: BoOnurrOng JOoraweit
KOoyong, Korangamite, Laanecoorie Marloo
and YanOOka If the other colonies follow the
example of Victoria and christen their cOnstit-
uences in aboriginal fashion, the Australian
Federal Speaker will need marvellous memory
to retain the names of members and the places
they represent.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 29-Important
news came from China at the end Of
the day. which In itself tends 10 ad-
vance materially the efforts for final
settlement.
China has accepted the suggestions
Of the United States contained in the
ansaer TO the German proposition and
has begun voluntarily the punishment
Of the reactionary Chinese leaders who
were responsible for the Pekin out
RACES.
II will be recalled that in our answer
ths state department was careful to
state that While It did not believe in
demanding the surrender OF the Chi
nese ringleaders as a condition prece-
dent to negotiations. 1t was resolved
firmly. as Secretary Hay had said in
his r,ate OF July Q. that all the guilty
parties should be held to the utter
most accountability. The Chinese gov
eminent has taken this lntimation to
heart and. perhaps hastened in it's ac-
tiol by the recent manifestation Of dis
satisfaction by the United States gov
ernment at the reported promotion Of
Prince Tuan. already begun the pun
ishment Of him and the other Chinese
leaders who are held guilty.
The decree recited by sheng Is felt
to be Of .he utmost Importance as in
dicating complete change Of heart on
the part Of the reigning dynasty. 1t
means that the reactionary influences
which have been dominant in Pekin
through the uprising and have even
continued OF late days have suffered a
complete overthrow. and that their
most conspicuous figures are degraded
and on trial.
It is believed here that If this ac-
tiOn is genuine it will be hard for any
Of the powers to find a reasonable pre-
text for longer refusing to heed the
appeal Of the Chinese government for
opening negotiations looking to settle
ment.
The Importance of the action is
shown by the determination 10 try
Prince Tuan before the imperial clan
court This is the supreme judicial
tribunal OF China and is the only one
having Jurisdiction over members of the
imperial family. 1t is noted also that
even before the trial Prince Tuan is
stripped Of his salary and his official
servants.

PoTTsvILLE. Pa. Sept 29-The con-
vIction Is growing that II will be next
10 impossible TO settle the strike on
any basis not including a recognition
Of the United Mine Workers. The strike
was ordered and subsequently managed
by the leaders Of this organization:
the strikers are following almost unan-
imously the advice and mandates OF
these leaders. and II Is generally be-
lievec here that the men viii not go
beck TO the mines until they get
word TO do 30 from Mitchell.
in the vicinity OF shamokin a num-
Der OF men representing the operators
have been making efforts 10 have the
men promise to return 10 work on oc-
tober I. Few II any such promises
were secured and most Of the miners
approached looked upon the officers Of
the mine owners TO make certain con-
cesslons as a sign OF weakening.
In the lower section OF the Schuylkill
the recent story that negroes were to
be imported from Virginia to take the
places OF the strikers has been re-
celved and considerably discussed. A
rumor was current that some Of the op-
orators had actually arranged with the
agents OF men In Virginia who make a
business OF supplying negro labor TO
import large number OF colored men
here 10 work In the mines. Mine own
ers and strike leaders pronounce the
story ridiculous. In the first place they
say inexperienced negroes. or white
men for that matter. would be almost
worthless In the mines. and II would
require a long time 10 make any large
body OF such men useful in cutting
coal. In the next place even the mine
owners admit that such a move would
nrecipitate almost a revolution. which
would involve not only the negroes and
strikers but all the workingmen OF this
state.
a complete tie up OF the Schuylkill
collieries, possibly excepting the three
mines in the west end. is in sight.
About 400 cars OF coal were mined at
the Schuylkill region yesterday. This
is the smallest days production in
years. Dealers made many offers for
coal at the mines at prices representing
an Increase over the offers made yes
terday. For some grades an increase
Of 25 cents a ton over the prices Of yes
terday was offered. There is. however.
virtually no coal in the market at the
mines, that mined having been dis
posed of before It was cut and none
Of the operators would contract to de-
liver.
