GERMAN Y
Will Increase Her Fleet-Wants Her
Share of China,

Berlin, July 23.-.Spl) The Cologne
Gazette In an inspired article today
says the German government will
shortly again approach the Reichstag
with the extensive demands for an
increase of the feet and will insist on
the construction of war ships for for
eign service, provision for which was
struck out of the previous naval bill.
1t is pointed out that the present dis
play of naval force in the far East
opens prospect of diplomatic ac-
tivity such as may not be witnessed
for centuries to come. The article
concludes as follows:
Germany will surely participate
with all the powers at her command
when the time comes for repartition
of China into so-called spheres of in
terest."

between the people and Christian mis-
sion. The subsequent fall of the Taku
forts precipitated the meeting of force
with force. TIE Imperial government,
having due regard to the Importance
of international intercourse. still re-
fused TO go so far as to interrupt the
existing relations. We have already
repeatedly issued DEGREES providing for
the protection for the foreign legations
and also commanded the provincial au-
thorities TO protect missionaries. In
asmuch as there is still no cessation
in the employment of force, foreign
merchants and subjects residing in
China, who form numerous body in
the country. should be protected with
ont distinction. We hereby command
all the Tartar generals, governor gen
eral and governors of provinces to
look after the foreign merchants and
missionaries living in the open ports,
prcfecturcr, departments and districts
under their respective Jurisdictions
and to afford them due protection in
accordance with the treaty stipulations
without fail. Last month we heard
with profound astonishment and regret
of the killing of the chancellor of the
Japanese legation, Mr.. Akira, and the
same fate befell the German minister
shortly afterwards. The violent re-
moval Of the German minister, whose
residence at the capital was necessary
to the transaction of business, be-
tween the two countries, affected us
very deeply. 1t Is the duty of the au-
thorities concerned TO cause stringent
orders for the speedy arrest and pun
ishmcnt of the murdercrs to be carried
out.
"Since the commencement Of the at
tack ON Ticn Tsin, there are foreign
subjects and missionaries who have,
on account of local disturbances, suf-
fercd death OF loss of property, through
no fault OF their own. We hereby
command the governor of Pckin and
The vlccroy Of Chihli TO cause invcsti-
suborlinntcs of all such claims cX-
ccpt those arising directly from the
said attack, with view to their ulti-
mate settlement. Moreover, local out

knowing the Chinese as / do I have
little doubt that all the foreigners in
Pekin were murdered long ago" said
John Il. Roberts, of Shanghai, an
American civil engineer who has spent
thirty-eight years in China.
At the Auditorium hotel he talked at
length about the present conditions in
China, the causes which led up to
them and tile probable results.
"Many of the dispatches concerning
China published in the newspapers are
absurd" he said, but it is my opinion
| that there are no foreigners alive in
| Pekin. The government is weak and
the mob undoubtedly got the upper
hand.
| 'Ihere is only one way to deal with
those people. They should be taken
by the throat and thrashed. The pow
ers make a mistake when they treat
China as a civilized power. The
/ Chinese are not civilized. Their kind
of civilization may be much older but
they are far behind European civiliza-
/ tion, nevertheless.
"An army of 10000 regular troops
Is all that is necessary to take Pekin.
An army of that size could walk TO
Pekin with little resistance. The
stories in the newspapers to the effect
that the Chinese have an army of
100000 men are ridiculous. There are
not more than 10000 drilled troops in
China. The rest are poorly organized
and poorly armed"

BIG COAL STRIKE
AT ITS MAXIMUM
Offer Of Increase of Ten Per
Cent in Wages Rejected
by Miners.

PHILADELPHIA, September 30-An
offer of an Increase Of 10 per cent In
miners wages was today made by the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
Iron Company, and this move it is stat
ed. win be followed on Tuesday by
similar notices at every colliery in the
anthracite region. 1t is expected by the
operators that this increase in wages
will be satisfactory to the men. and
they believe many strikers will take
advantage of the offer and return to
work. Mining operations will, in this
event. be given an impetus. and the
operators expect there will then be a
gradual resumption until the collieries
will again have their full complement
of employees.
HAZLETON. Pa. Oct. 1.--President
Mitchell at noon today said:
The strike is practically complete.
and there will be no resumption of
work without there first being con-
lvention representing every colliery in
the anthracite field. The prediction
made yesterday that no attention
would be paid to the notices posted by
the Reading company conceding a 10
per cent advance has proved true.

fifty yards of General Lawton and we
saw a man in black trousers showing
conspicuously among the white uni

out on the tower of the church. He
surveyed the ground on which We stood
very carefully. then raised his musket
and fired. At that instant General
