WASHINGTON, Oct. 1. = Several i'm
portant dispatches were received today
from China. Generally they tend to
confirm the events recorded Sunday.
From Canton Consul McWade reports
the issue of the decree Furnishing Tuan
and his colleagues, so that there is no
longer doubt as to the accuracy Of
Sheng's statement on that point. Mr..
Conger also has received official notifica-
ton of the Chinese peace commission
which was forecasted by Minister Wu's
advices several days ago.
Mr.. Conger made no reference to the
cOndemnatOry decree, hence it is in
ferred that it was not issued when his
dispatch was sent last Thursday. The
text Of the two dispatches is as fOlIoWs:
DEGREES just issued; emperor blames
ministers for whole trouble. Orders
Tuan, Kangi and other officials degraded
and punished by imperial courts. En-
peror holds Tuan and others entirely re-
suonsible for bloodshed.
This dispatch is signed by Consul Nc
Wade, at Canton.
"Have received notice today from
Prince Ching that he, Earl Ii, Jung Lu
and Viceroys Tin Kuan vi and Chang

The war department is in receipt of a

tions to withdraw most of the United
States forces from China and had pro-
vided, in accordance with these instruo-
tions, for legation guard.

ROLLING MILLS ARE
AGAIN IN OPERATION
They Have Been Shut Down
Since July /.
OUTLOOK IS VERY BRIGHT

Operators Are Pleased With the Pros
poets of Better Business-Iron Mar
ket Is Hardening - Southern Fur
naces Have Plenty of Orders.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Oct. 1.-The ir1<
auguration of work today at the Birm'
ingham and Gate City Rolling mills OF
the Republic Iron and Steel company
promises to be the beginning of another
upward movement in industrial circles
in the Birmingham district. These two
mills have been idle since July l, to
make repairs and also to wait the sign
ing of the amalgated wage scale. The
scale was signed week ago and the re-
pairs have been practically completed.
Meanwhile all the surplus stock of fin.
ished iron has been sold out and brisk
demand has set in. This condition Will
enable the company to put the rfsflls on az
full force, which means the employment
of 1850 men, who have been idle Tor
three months.
1t is admitted by the operators thae
the outlook for the finished iron trade IS
better than it has been for some time.
Well nigh all the rolling mills in the
country have been shut down for three
months past and consumption had an
opportunity to catch up in a measure
with production. Meanwhile, the hard
ening of the pig iron market has had
the effect of cheapening the cost of raw
material to the rolling mills and this
gives them an additional advantage so
that, all together, the prospects are that
the mills will run without interruption
from now until next summer. The
month of September has been the heav-
lest of the year in the sale and shipment
of export iron.
A well informed iron authority says
that the domestic iron market has struck
bottom; that prices are hardening and
that business may be expected to show
steady improvement so far as southern

Believed the Seaboard Has Purchased

DUBLIN, Ga, Oct. HI. K. Deal has
been appointed assistant general freight
and passenger agent Of the Macon, Dub
lin and Savannah railroad, with head
quarters in Dublin. This is a position
lust created, General Manager James T.
Wright of Macon having been general
freight and passenger agent and SUPER
intendent of this road ever since it be-
gan to be operated.
Mr. Deal comes from Norfolk. He
has been with the Seaboard Air Line,
and rumor has it that he is se-7tt. ,4ere by
the Seaboard. The Seaboard is said
to have had it's eye on the Macon, Dub
lin and Savannah for some time, and it
is probable that deal has been made.
From Dublin to Lyons, on the Sea-
board, is only 80 miles. If this gap were
built continuous line could be operated
via the Macon, Dublin ad Savannah
and the old Georgia and ! -labama from
Macon to Savannah, which would be at
least 40 miles shorter than any other be-
tween those two cities.

Miners VIII Not Return Until Or

SHAMoKIN, Pa, Oct. Although SUI
perintendents of numerous collieries in
this portion of this district attempted to
start up their mines this m0rning, few,
if any, men went to work. A few bust
ness people expected there would be a
stampede of employees of the Reading
Coal and Iron company to go under
ground on account of the company
granting an increase of 10 per cent on
the net earnings of the men and boys,
but they were disappointed.
If anything less men showed up this
morning than at other operations, owing
to the strikers and their leaders having
canvassed the men thoroughly after the
posting yesterday of the company's cir
cular informing the miners of the con-
cessions.
Long before daybreak all of the Read
ing company's men had determined not
to 90 to work 1t is generally agreed by
most, if not all of the strikers, that they
will not go to work until officially ad-
vised by President Mitchell.

Jack Crawford, an inoffensive negro,

who is rather notorious. This shooting
is the result of feeling which has existed
for several weeks between a certain

outraged and imposed upon in various
ways. There have been all sorts of ru-
mors going the rounds for some days in

Young Man Has Been Asleep Fog
Nearly a Week.

TUsCUAIBIA, Ala, Oct. 1.-The doctors
of this city are very much puzzled over
the condition of Ellis Wade. He was to
have been married last Wednesday even
ing to a young lady of Tuscumbia, whose
brothers objected to the alliance, and
the wedding failed of contamination.
The young man went to his home after
being informed of the circumstances,
retired as usual, but failed to get up
the next morning. On going to his
room his father discovered Ellis to be
soundly asleep, and could not be awak-
ened.
A physician was summoned, and after
exhausting the usual remedies in such
cases, was surprised that the young man
still slept. He gives no intimation of
returning consciousness. The physi-
clans cannot determine whether he took
a drug; the father thinks he has lapsed
into q trance and that he will come
around all right.
