the situation. 1t clearly implies the pur-
pose of the Chinese government to re-
sist the advance movement of the allied
forces to the full extent of its, power
coupled with the further implication that
further hostile demonstrations on the
part or the allies may Jeopardize the
lives Of the ministers.
So far as known there is no special pur-
pose of calling a halt in the allied move
ment against Pekin. 1t is acknowledged
that the relief column is not strong
enough to maintain war against the Chi
nese kingdom for any great length Of
time, but heavy achievements are en-
route to China. Their arrival on the
scene may alter the situation entirely
and bring the obstinate orientals to their
senses.
It is the present situation, however,
that worries the administration, and
there is general chagrin that 1t is not in
q position to enforce its demands and
bring the Chinese authorities to instant
terms. In the course Of the next two
months there will be about 5000 troops
on Chinese soil, not counting many thou
sands more that could be transferred
from the Philippines in case of necessi-
ty. The Chinese will be held to a strict
accountability for any injury that may
be sustained by American interests in
the present crisis. What should be done
for the immediate relief of the minis
tiers Is the problem now confronting the
administration and is the subject Of anx-
ious conferences between the officials in
this city, and Geographic correspondence
with the president at Canton and the
secretary of state at Sunapee, N. H.
Acting Secretary Adee received
cable message this morning from Consul
Goodnow at Shanghai giving the latest
Information in his possession in regard
TO the situation in China, including the

in the advance on Pekin. 1t was referred
to the secretary Of war and was not
made public.

Robert M. Lafollctte, thrice candidate
for the gubernatortal nomination On the
Republican ticket, was successful today
for the first time, winning the victory in
walk. Mr.. Lafollette's name was the
only one presented to the convention to
head the ticket, all other ante-conven-
ton candidates, five In number having
withdrawn one at time several weeks
before the date The balance of the
ticket is made up of present incumbents
The principal state plank in the plat
form advocates the adjustment of eau
cuses and conventions.
In part the platform is as follows: =
The Republicans of Wisconsin, in con-
vention assembled, heartily indorse the
Republican platform adopted at Philadel-
phia and pledge their enthusiastic support
to the Republican candidates for presi-
dent and vice president.
We indorse the national administration
Of William Mckinley and the work of
our able senators and representatives In
congress.
Other plauks indorse the present state
administration, the establishment of Il
tax commission by the last legislature;
also legislation on the pass and lobby
questions. Legislation prohibiting COM
binatlons and trusts that destroy COM
petition, restrain trade and create mon
are favored.
The primary election plank reads as fol-
lows:
The great reformation effected in our
elections through the Australian ballot in
spires us with confidence to apply the
same method in making nominations SO
that every voter may exercise his SOW
erign right of choice by direct vote with
out the Intervention or interference OF
any political agency. We therefore de-
mand that caucuses and conventions for
the nomination Of candidates for Office
be abolished by legislative enactment and
that all candidates for state, legislative,
congressional and county Offices be nomi
mated at primary election upon the same
day by direct vote under the Australian
ballot.
A separate resolution expresses regret
at the announced determination of United
States Spooner to retire.
If primary election law is enacted by
the next legislature it means an end to
state conventions III Wisconsin.
AT the conclusion of the nominations
Mr.. Lafollette came before the conven-
ton, making an address in which he
promised loyal support to the platform.

that an order for the extradition of

such evidence he will be held for extra

exist. He has been held to bail in this

RAILS MADE TOO HASTILY.
The old Ones Cannot Withstand the
Wear OF Present-Dny
Heavy Trnfiic.

A nigh authority on railroading says
that with locomotives weighing 14O
tons and upward and freight cars of
100000 pounds capacity and steadily
increasing speed, the time is fast ap-
proaching when all the old rails will
have to be taken up and heavier rails
laid. For some reason the steel rails
made now are not as durable as those
made 20 years ago. One reason is that
the blast furnace iron, instead of being
cooked and run into pigs, is run fluid
from the furnace TO the mixer, thence
to the converter, where it is cast into
ingots.
Eleven passes through the rolls turn
an ingot into bloom, and the bloom,
before 1t has a chance to know it, is
tossed into heating furnace and
turned into rail with only nine passes
through train of rolls running at a
terrific speed of 900 feet minute. The
rail is, it is said, finished too hot and
too quickly by the last passes through
the rolls being made with the rail at
temperature of 1000 TO 1900 degrees,
while 20 years ago it was not hotter
than 1,400 to 1000 degrees. This lower
temperature allowed the steel to take
certain "set," and it was, therefore,
stronger.
