GERMANY AND CHINA.
The Government Ready to Cooperate
With Others in Restoring Order in
the Flowery Kingdom.

copyrighted by the Associated Press}
Berlin, June 9.-The situation in
China is here regarded as of the ut
most Importance. Though the foreign
office has been rather uncommunica-
tive throughout the week towards all
foreign correspondents, enough relia-
BILE information has leaked out to show
that the whole government, with the
emperor and the minister of foreign
affairs, Count Won Buelow. leading,
consider suppression of the anti-for-
eign movement in China prerequisite
to a possible rejuvenation of China,
and certainly for the establishment of
healthy commercial conditions there.
Germany is therefore as the officials
of the foreign office emphatically told
the correspondent Of the Associated
Press, in favor of harmonious joint
action by all the powers interested in
China without permitting any single
power to reap selfish advantages from
the situation, nor the group Of powers
doing so.
Reliable information is to the effect
that Germany at all events will vigor-
ously exert herself with other powers
to put an end to the present unbeara-
BILE situation. His majesty's instruc-
tions are that while Germany will in
NO way put herself unduly forward
and is willing to loyalty cooperate
with the rest of the powers she will
under no circumstances permit the
present conditions to go on even II
thereby suspicion should be aroused
that Germany is seeking separate
aims, which, of course. Is absurd.

Raleigh, n. c., June s.-It is freely
said the legislature will not adjourn

of the courts delay and the fact that
it has filed opinions more slowly since

May than it did previously. There is

the remarkably prolonged session of

BAND WILL SUE
THE OFFICERS
And Men Of the Eighth Regi,
ment, For Services Rendered.
WERE PROMISED BY COL. HARD
That They Would Get $1,000 More Thar
the Government Paid Them and
Now They Are After
the Money.

Captain M. A. Fisher, of the local
national guards, received a letter this,
Wednesday morning, from attorneys
locatd at Akron, in which they asked
that a difference amounting to about
81, 900 must be made up between the
officers and privates Of the national
guards, for services rendered by the
Eight regiment band in Cuba during
the late war. 1t appears that the men,
bers of the band received the same pay
ment per day as privates in the COM
panies, and that the government paid
this sum. The evening before leaving
Akron Colonel Hard made arrangements
the regiment, and after consulting few
Of the officers of the regiment, he agreed
to pay the band $1,000 additional to
what the government allowed them.
1t is this difference that the band now
seeks to recover. Captain M. A. Fisher
received the best of care and were ten
dered all comforts. While theh patri-
otic soldiers boys were patrolling their
beats during the rainy and damp night
season the band boys were comfortably
ensconced upon nice cots and sleeping
unconcernedly of what was going on
about them outside. When the boys in
blue were short Of rations and other
comforts the band boys always had
plenty and enough to spare. but they
took care of it all and outside of rem
dering their music they assisted in no
way whatever in putting down the war.
The attorneys state that if the amount
of $1,000 is not forthcoming from the
officers and privates of the regiment
within 80 days that they will at once
begin suit for that amount.

LEFT THE RAIL
IN THE TUNNEL.
An Accident On the Wheeling
That Damaged an Engine.
BUSINESS WAS DELAYED
And a Number of Men who Wanted to
Reach Canton Were Forced to
Drive--The Damage Not
Serious.

AS the north bound Canton-Sher-
rodsville passenger train on the w. & L..
e. was passing through the Roberts
vile tunnel Wednesday morning the en-
gine, No. so. left the track on account
of the turning over of rail, and before
it could be stopped by Engineer Harry
Johnson, ran along the side Of the
heavy tunnel timbers breaking the cab
and doing other slight damage to the
engine. The care escaped injury and
none of the passengers were hurt. The
train was proceeding at a slow rate of
speed at the time of the accident, and
the engine was handled by one of the
"Wheeling's" most efficient engineers.
The wrecking crew was called to the
scene of the accident and before noon
the track was cleared and the regular
service resumed.
The south bound trains could only run
to the tunnel and there waited till the
track was cleared. Osnaburg men, who
have business in Canton, and who come
up every day, telephoned to the COM
pany offices and asked that the south
bound train be backed to Canton in
stead of standing at the tunnel just
waiting. The company declined to take
the action suggested and the Osnaburg
people had to either wait till the track
was cleared or drive over. A number
secured rigs and drove into Canton.

the time granted was too short to prop
erly versify the boys in medical know
ledge, and that if more time had been
given, they certainly would have been
better able to take care Of themselves.
Commander Charles r. Miller asked
the doctor if it was not fact that the
medical department in the late war
was altogether inefficient. and If the
criticism made was not really due to
the lack of executive ability Of the med
ical department rather than an over
sight Of the war department or Of the
government-due primarily to the lack
of executive ability of the men COM
prising the medical department. The
doctor. smiled and made no direct reply
to the question.
After the closing of the remarks by
Captain Smith, three new members
were considered for membership, their
applications accepted and they were
ushered into the membership Of the
