IN KANSAS.

The startling news comes from To-
peka, Kan, that a number of the lead
ing business men of that city have
proclaimed a boycott against severel
of the churches in revenge for the in
discretion of their ministers in plung-
ing too deeply into the warfare of pod
itics. One of the aggrieved boycotters
describes the situation by saying: "In
the recent election the Topeka Minis
terial Union attempted to turn some
tricks that would make Croker blush. 1"
And yet it was in Topeka recently
that the Rev. Mr.. Sheldon attempted
to point the path of reform to the sin
full journalism of the age by manag-
ing one of the newspapers for a week
just to show how 1t ought to be done.
In the light of recent revelations
it might be a benevolent suggestion to
hand the pulpits of Topeka over to the
editors of the newspapers.

CHINESE OFFICIALS
Who Are to be Punished for Crimes Com
mltted.
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
Washington, D. c. Nov. 16.-The
Chinese officials mentioned for pun
ishment in the decree are among the
highest in China, and comprise most,
if not all of those against whom the
powers demanded rigorous punish
ment. Prince Tuan stands at the head
or the AnIti-Foreign and Boxer move
ment. Previous edicts degraded him
and took away his Office and servants,
but the judgment of life imprson-
ment is the most severe thus far given
to any leaders responsible for the
trouble. From the Chinese stand
point it is an extreme penalty to a
Prince of blood, but it remains to be
seen whether the Powers regard it as
adequate to Prince Tuan's offense.
Others mentioned as Tuan's active
associates, and two of them specifcal-
ly are mentioned for punishment
along with Tuan, in Secretary Hays
note of October advising the Chinese
government that this country expects
these officials to receive their just
deserts. u
Kang Ki is one of the officials who
died suddenly after the demands for
punishment had been made, probably
by suicide Yu Hsien is also thought
4 -; IL Al
let indicates that he is still alive. AS
the Ministers at Pekin also have been
considering the question of punish
ments, development will be speedy
when they lay their demands before
the Chinse ENJOYS as 10 whether the
edict of the Chinese Emperor gives
punishment as adequate to fit the
crimes.

RUSSlA'S DANGER.

Should the illness of the Gar Mich
olas II. prove serious, as it Is rumored,
no graver danger confronts Russia
than the possibility of his death. Rus
sia Is in transitory stage, passing
from the darkness of the early Roman
offs to the light of modern progress.
With all the vast mass that is to be
moved the progress has been neces
sarily slow, and with the hindrance
that has come with political animosi-
ties and from the prejudices and fears
of the numerous nobility and the mis-
guided earnestness of the Nihilists,
Russia has only really entered upon
her certain advancement within the
time limit of the present ruler and his
two immediate predecessors.
Nicholas H. came into authority at a
time when theory had commenced to
become practical, and under his rule
Russia has forgotten many of her crud-
tiles, and taken a more decided place
dIOuS ClNlllLtu udIlOuS' lllSl heii iN
forms have beeninaugurated, and while
Russia cannot jump at once to new
plane like Japan did, She Is hurrying
as rapidly as such a body can. The
new policy is not without opposition.
Were a man on the throne Of Russia
who had less resolution and assertion
than Nicholas II. the present would be
different and the future one of appre-
hension. Nicholas II. has two sons, the
line of succession running to his
brother, Grand Duke Michael, young
man of 90 There is this, however,
about the ruling Russian family. The
house of Romanoff has married so per.
sistently with German blood that the
German character may be said to in
fuence, if not predominant, and Ger
man blood is more progressive with
each new generation. But the death
of Nicholas II. would be a sad loss for
Russia in the hour when the empire
has started in the new direction, but
is not far enough advanced to be an
chored in the course.-Pittsburg

SECRET TREATY
Between Russia and China for the OCCupa-
tlOn of MantChuria.

BY Associated Press.
London, Nov. 16.-Unconfirmed
statements emanating from Paris and
Odessa say that a secret treaty has
been concluded between Russia and
China for the Russian occupation of
Mantchuria. There is no fresh news
throwing light on the actual situation.
The japanese minister, who was inter-
viewed yesterday hinted at a possbil-
ity of the allies pursuing the Chinese
court into the interior If they desired,
although he said it will be long pro
seccion if Shanghai sends the Empress
Dowager. Alarmed at the uprising in
Kan Su province, she now contem-
plates returning to Tai Yuen Flu.
From Hankew comes the report that
Gen. ing Flu Hsing is still at Sian Flu
protecting the Empress Dowager, and
that Prince Tuan has fed to Kan Su.
and that the whereabouts of Yu Hsien.
governor of Shan 81, are unknown.
Prince Ching will be sent to Germany
to apologize for the murder of Baron
Won Ketteler.

1T Is DANGEROUS TO TREsPAss.
Many of Those Killed on Railroad
Tracks Have No business There.
From the Pittsburg Pos


The fearful slaughter of trespassers on
the Pennsylvania Railroad tracks has
once more awakened the attention of the
railroad, municipal and county authori-
ties to the fact that something should be
done TO prohibit people from walking on
the dangerous iron highways. The blood
lest record ever made in one week has just
been established on the Pittsburg division
of the Pennsylvania. Wednesday morning
the southwestern express killed two men,
a freight train killed another man near
Johnstown and Conductor George Vance
reported that an unknown man had been
ground TO pieces in the Ardara tunnel, ana
that the body of another man who had
been run down had been forwarded 10
Greensburg The night before another un-
known man was instantly killed east of
Greensburg by the Pittsburg limited and
an aged colored man, who was picking up
coal, was killed near the same place. An
drew tSoricin, a foreigner, was struck by
the day express near Radebaugh and DIED
before he could be taken to the hospital
Yesterday one of the fast morning trains
killed another man, who is thought to have
Jumped from a freight train in front of
the rapidly moving passenger engine
Shortly after one of the fast trains shot
out of the Ardara tunnel yesterday three
men stepped on the track and came near
being ground up; in fact, nothing could
have saved them had ii not been for the
fact that the train was moving on a eau
tionary block and was brought under con-
troll by the emergency brake The engi-
neers of the fast trains are careful men
and 1t almost unnerves them when they
see human being hurled into space. But
they are powerless to avoid such calami-
ties, as the careless track trespassers will
walk right to their doom regardless or
every warning.
A railroad official in talking about the
slaughter that is going on, said
that he could see no way to prevent it,
as people would persist in walking on the
tracks He related conversation between
an American and an English railway Off
cial while both were riding on the rear
end of a limited. The Englishman per-
ceived some men walking on the tracks
and said: "Why do you allow that?"
well" said the American, what do you
do with such trespassers?" I'VE arrest
them" said the Englishman. "Well, we
do worse than that" said the American,
1--WE kill them and yet we can't keep them
off the tracks"
