Chen ruled the Wei Kaou. With his
wife he formed a plot to blow up the
palace at Pekin. For months 1t was

gagged, but no hint reached the gov
eminent until the conspirators were
actually entering the palace. A great
gust of wind suddenly extinguished
their lights and a few members, seized
with superstitious panic, cried out,
thus alarming the guard. Kia King,

by putting heavier burdens on those
outside the protective influence of the
powerful Chang tribe.
To some extent a Hui or secret so
ciety can protect Its members from the
mandarin. and thus give to them bene-
fits such as the Chang clansmen enjoy,
Often IL does this by blackmail. 1t con-
vinces tho mandarin that so long as.he
does as the Hui wishes the Hui will be
with him, otherwise IL will be against
him; II will create disturbances and
see that reports of these disturbances
reach the proper officials in Pein. II
the Hui is powerful, the mandarin is
rather a manikin, to which strings at

poses pull in opposite directions.
