press Dowager.
Shanghai, April 16.--A full account
has been received here OF the meeting
ON March at Peking between the em-
press dowager and the grand council.
Protests were read from the viceroys
and governors Of nine of the IS prov
inces against the policy Of the empress
dowager. These officials are the great
est provincial authorities in China.
They declared unitedly that, II the en-
press dowager persists in persecuting
the reformers and continuing her reign
Of terror policy, the Chinese under
them will rebel against the Manchus.
The yiceroy at Nanking says he has
140, 900 Hunanese troops who are anx-
ious to fight the Manchus, and he fears
he cannot control them. The vice.
roys who united in this remarkable step
represent the provinces OF Kiang-S Su.
Anhui, Kiangsi, Human, Hupeh, Che
kiang, Fookien, Quangsi and Kwang-
tung, with an aggregate population of
180, 900, 900.
Until this protest had been made,
the dowager empress had been having
things quite her own way. Though
she has desisted from her purpose TO set
up new emperor, yet her wrath to-
wards those who opposed her has shown
no abatement. 1t is unbounded Kin

Portuguese colony OF Macao, off the

detectives. Mr.. Kin fed from Shang-

the national system OF telegraphs in
China, and headed the petition signed
by 1900 notables against setting mp a
new emperor. Probably he will be
decapitated. An English law firm
here has been retained TO defend him.
The government has trumped up
charges of defalcation against Mr.. Kin,
who is really very able and enlight-
ened man.
On March instructions were wired
from Peking TO 500 Chow, capital Of
Kiang-Su, to arrest and put to death
the reformers Weng T'Ung-Ho and
Shen Pong. These men had been in
very important positions in Peking,
but were easily captured in 500 Chow.

To Suppress italian Strikers at Croton
Landing.
Croton Landing. N. Y. April IL
While ryshing is quiet and peaceful
in the neighborhood OF the Cornell dam
tonight, nearly 800 armed deputies are
guarding the works, and each one of
them is guessing as to what tomorrow
may bring forth. The striking Italian
laborers. whose homes are in the vicin-
ity of the works, are behaving them
selves excellently. But underneath
their assumed quiet there is stubborn
resolve not TO go back to work nor let
any outsiders take their places until
the contractors agree to pay the in
crease of wages demanded. Strenuous
efforts are being made by Italian Con-
sui Branchi TO bring about settlement
of the difficulty. The strikers are very
determined in their demands, and swear
that if outside labor is brought here
they will fight tooth and nail to prevent
1t. Angelo Rotella, who is the recog-
nized leader of the strikers, said today:
"This is fight to a finish. We earn
more money than we are receiving, and
the contractors must pay us for our
work. The state should protect us,
and, instead of sending deputies and
soldiers to help the bosses, they should
compel them to treat us rightfully. If
the bosses attempt to bring the other
laborers here we shall prevent any work
being done, and if the military comes
to help them, then we will fight the
soldiers.'

Pretoria, April l6.--Unitei States
Consul Hay. in an interview, says the
report that Captain Reichmann, the

absolutely false. Captain Reichmann.
it is said, was occupied most of the
time attending upon the wounded
Dutch military attache, Lieutenant
Mix. who has since died. Consul
Hay has no doubt that Reichmann has
been confused with the American Lieu
tenant Loosberg, OF the Free State ar
tillery, who took very active part in
the fight.
