mnde no effort whatever to compel the Chinese government to protect their people.
 The fearful massacre at Hwashan was reported to our minister, Denby, on August 6, and he at once instructed Consul Hixson to begin an investiga- tion. On the 17tb Consul Hixson named board of investigation, on which he attempted to get English con suls to serve, but they declined. China refused to go into the inquiry, and Consul Hixson began the work him. self.
 When Consul Hixson was ordered by the minister at Pekin to proceed to the scene of the outrage and institute inquiry he asked for and received a Chinese escort, of which he acknowl- edges that he was doubtful, At Hwa- shan he gathered the most positive evi dence against the actual perpetrator B and their advisers and leaders. He also secured discriminating evidence showing complicity on the part of the Chinese officials
 So successfully and feurlessIy did Consul Hixson conduct his investiga- tion thnt three months after the mas sacre was reported he had the leaders beheaded
 After the consul returned to his home in Fucbau the English consul at tempted to explain his reluctance in going into the inquiry, but so clearly had that official shown the white feather that Hixson declined to have further relations with him.

Forest Reserve Study.

Mr. Clifford Pinchot, who is at tho head of commission Investigating the forest reserves in the matter of exclud tug stock from them, was iu PhoeniS last week Mir. Coville, a member ol the commission, has gone back to Washington, though the work has not quite been finished. The commission went over the San Francisco and Black Mesa reserve and also the Gila river reserve, extending into New Mexico.
 The commission will naturally want to make its report to the department first. so that Mir. Pinchot had very lit. :le to say about the work that has been done, says the Republican. He indi- cated, though, that the report would recommend the opening of the re. serves to grazing, with proper restric- tions. What is meant by proper re. strictions," Mir. Pincbot did not say. The definition will be incorporated into his report
 He found that comparatively little of the watershed of the Salt river formed a part of the Black Mesa reserve; that most of it which lies in a reserve IS in the San Francisco. It was also dis. covered, and this IS something that no- body seems to have thought of, that very little of the silt which IS washed down into the Salt river comes from re- serves. It IS gathered up in the coun- try this side, from which the under brush and almost every kind of vege tation has been destroyed by over graz. ing. An extension of the limits of the Preserves, he believes, would be good thing for all parties interested. It would not be done for the purpose of extending the forest reserve, but for the purpose of retaining the ruined grazing lands. At present large areas are worthless and will always remain so until some restraint is placed upon the stockmen. In the early days and as long after as they could profitably do so. they maintained vast herds and flocks on the ranges, which were of en- tirely inadequate area and as result many persous have allowed their stock to eat them ont of business.
