an explanation of the differences between
the Senate bill and the conference bill.
The first change was In the section de-

House conferees insisted that the iniunc-

The next change provided that the gold

sary expenditures will be met, sends
messengers duly qualified and equipped
to invite a number of other shamans
to aid him in the ceremonies, the
dances, the lamentations and the chant
ings or singings that are required.
Oftentimes the expense for these cere-
monies will amount to the equivalent
of many hundreds of dollars, and at
one of these medicine dances the ex-
penses for visitors, dancers, shamans
and messengers cost over $4,000. So
that it is but rarely that white man
is privileged to be present at any OF
these strange and singular rites.
The chief popularity about the
business is that the patient and his
Tor herr friends determine what GER
.emonies shall be performed to bring
about a restoration to health.
Now let us leave the railway and go
into the heart of the Navajo reserva-
ton, 20 or more miles north. Here we
shall find nearly 10000 Navajos, but
we might hunt for score of years and
never come upon one of these ceremo-
MES unless our previous friendship
with some great shaman gained for us

THE SITUATION IN CHINA.
A State of Yelled war-Foreign Legatioua
I'm Pekin Are Virtually
Prisoners.

London, June 16.-This is the situa-
ton in China rs it appears to the
Shanghai correspondent of the Daily
Express, cabling last evening:
A State of Yelled War.
''It is really a state of yelled war.
The members of the foreign legations
in Pekin are virtually prisoners, and
the Chinese troops are only restrained
from attacking them by fear of the
legation guards.
Unable to Communicate.
Meanwhile the ministers are alto
gether unable to communicate with
the officers commanding the relief col
umn, which is making an enforced and
isolated halt between Tien Tsin and
Pekin. The walls of the capital are
guarded by 100000 imperial troops.
The guards are heavily defended with
modern guns. Gen. Tung, acting under
orders from the empress dowager. says
that no more foreign troops have or
shall enter the sacred city.
Demand that the Gates be Opened.
On Monday the ministers sent de-
mand to the tsung-li-yamen that the
gates be opened, declaring that other
wise the foreign troops would enter
forcibly. To this no reply was given.
A second message, went unanswered.
or had not been answered when the
latest news left Pekin.
"Sir Claude MacDonald's latest mes
sage says that the legations are capa-
bic of sustaining an effective defense
unless attacked in force"

CONSIDERS THE WAR ENDED.
Natal Volunteers Dismissed and n
Complete Division Ordered to
Embark for China.

London, June Is, 1920 a. m.-There
are some indications that Lord Rob.
erts considers the wars end in South
Africa not far distant. One of these
is the fact that the Natal volunteers
who had seen hard service, were dis
missed to their homes by Sir Redvers
Butler Saturday. They were cheered
as they left camp.
Another indication is the report cur.
rent in authoritatively informed mill
tary circles in London that complete
division is to be withdrawn from Gen
Buffers army and embarked at Dur
ban for China.
The troops drawn from India will
probably go next. Lord Roberts lets
them go without telegraphing. The
correspondents at headquarters are as
they have been for ten days, silent.

INSURGENTS VICTORIOUS.
Win An Important Victory Over Gov.
eminent Troops About Ten
Miles from Panama.

Kingston, Jamaica, June 1s.-The
royal mail steamer Don, Capt. Davis,
which arrived here yesterday from:
Colon, brings news of an important
battle fought on Friday last about ten
miles outside of Panama. According
to this information the insurgent
forces were victorious, and some 200 OF
the government troops were killed.
1t is inferred that Panama may al
ready be in possession of the rebels.
The latter are strongly intrenched at
San Joaquin, near Sarta Marta, and all
the government troops at Raranquilla
lad been dispatched to Santa Marta
when the Don left Colon.
