Law IS NOW IN EFFECT.
Automatic COuplers Required Yes
terday on All Cars.

terday on All Cars.
On and after yesterday any railroad
company in the United States using a car
in interstate business not equipped with
automatic couplers will be subject to a
fine of 800 for each and every offense 1t
is estimated that fully ninety-e ght per
cent of the cars in the entire country are
supplied with this safety appliance. Those
that are not so provided are old cars used
in strictly state traffic and which are al
lowed to wear out. Many systems have
every car, old and new, supplied with the
automatic coupler.
The law requiring the railroads to equip
their cars with automatic couplers and
grip handles was passed in 1896. Two
years were allowed the transportation
companies In which to comply with the
act On January 1 the railway people
prayed for an extension of one year in
which to finish the work. A year elapsed
and the work was still unfinished. An
other extension to January l, 1899, was
given.
When the latter date arrived not over
sixty per cent of the cars were provided
and another extension was made to Aug
ust 1. 1900.
The law provides that the United States
attorney in the district with Jurisdiction
information furnished, shall file suits
against violating companies. 1t also re-
quires that the interstate commerce COM
mission shall ascertain facts by inquiry
regarding offending corporations and furn-
ish the information to the district attor-
neys. Regal ding the air brake, the statute
does not specify how many cars shall be
equipped 1t merely reads:
"a sufficient number of cars in every
train, freight and passenger, shall be
equipped with automatic air brakes to
control the movements of the train"
The number Of cars required to so con-
troll train has been fixed, after investiga-
ton, at twenty-five per cent of the total
number in any train. The interstate COM
meree commission has approved this per
cent.

Judge Hine Rules Against the Ped
dIers, License Law.

Judge Hine yesterday declared the
peddlers' license law unconstitutional
w. L. Chaplin, a vegetable peddler, was
on trial for selling vegetables without a
license, and Judge Hine decided that it
would be unfair discrimination to fine
Chaplin since others who have dealt in
the same line of goods have been allowed
to go free.
The ordinance does not enumerate
among those who must take out a H.
cense, the vendors of pop corn. Oil
matches and like products, and the court
held that this class of vendors might as
readily become a nuisance as those dis
pensing vegetables. and he therefore de-
clared the ordinance unconstitutional.

POLITICAL PROGRAMME.
Count Won waIdersec VIII Follow No
Arbitrary Course.

| Berlin, Aug. ga section of the Ger
man press is talking about Count Won
Waldersees political programme in
China The phrase is said to be wholly
| inapplicable to the case. Count Won
Waldersee Is going without any politi-
cal programme
The German government is really car
rying on ceaselessly diplomatic negoti
ations in the capitals of the powers to
agree to a joint programme for the i'm
| mediate present and the policy for
months ahead is not even dreamed of
| now.
| The correspondent of the Associated
| Press hears that perfect harmony re-
garding China continues to prevail be-
tween Germany and the United States.
The Cologne Gazette In the course of
an inspired article replying to demands
| made by number of German jingo pa
pers that Germany should seize good
ly portion of the Yang Use valley says
Germany most emphatically does not
harbor any such intention"
Herr Eugen Richter, the radical lead
er, publishes in the Freissinge Zeitung
a severely sarcastic editorial reviewing
Emperor williams whole China policy
since it's inception and attempting to
show, paragraph after paragraph, that
this policy has been an unbroken series
of contradictions
The first batch of German correspon-
dents has arrived at the seat of war and
this evening number of special dis
patches are printed. None of them,
however, throws new light on the stu
alton.
A number of local military command
ers at Hamburg, Gleiwitz and Hanover
are sending out circulars announcing
that there will be no celebration of Sc
dan this year.
The Cologne volks Zeitung publishes
the text of the address made by En-
peror William to the officers of the Chi
ma troops going from the Rhine dis
tricts. His majesty is represented as
saying that he feared the troubles in
China might develop war between the
Orient and the Occident. He praised
the bravery already shown in China by
all the nations concerned and advised
those who heard him to cultivate good
fellowship with all, regardless of color.
He said that Chile had offered to sup
ply all the horses Germany needed and
also to send 10000 men. Referring to
the Chinese he characterized them as
a "cowardly but cunning and treacher-
Gus foe" After counselling the strict
est discipline he said 'Spare the pop
ulation, but do not spare those who op-
pose you there in arms Show the Chi
nese that there Is one power which
means to punish the crimes they have
committed irrespective of more distant
and more practical aims"
Abdul Hamid has conveyed to En-
peror William an expression of the joy
felt at the Yildiz Kiosk over the relief
of the foreign ervoys in PelSin and the
success of the kaiser's policy

but in the state departments note OF
transmission there was no suggestion
that concurrence or appeal was expect
ed or desired. On the contrary, the
United States acted entirely on its own
initiative, and, as 1t has turned out,
acted first and in such way as to
have other governments take like ac-
ton.
The German reply in one respect is re-
garded as having significance beyond
that of the United States in that 1t is
based on the theory that there can be
no sovereign authority in China other
than that emanating from the emperor
and empress dowager. Among diplo-
matte officials this is said to be equiva-
lent to an assertion that the existing re-
gime is to be recognized and that there
is no purpose to set up any new admin
istrative authority over China. While 1t
is said tina. this may not go to the ex-
tent of assuring the continuance of the
present Manchu dynasty, it at least dis
closes no present purpose to hold that
the flight of the emperor and empress
dowager is an abdication of the Manchu
regime.

J4PINESE ADVICES.

Washington, Aug. 23.-The Japanese
legation to-day received the following
advices from the foreign office at Toxic,
dated August 23:
'The commander Of the japanese fleet
at Taku transmitted by telegraph on
the 2lst the following report from Pc
kin:
g The Japanese regiment which had
been detailed early on the 18th for the
purpose of protecting the imperial pal
ace, had hard fighting all day, but they
could not bring it to decisive issue,
as they refrained from firing on the
palace On the following day, however,
they took it's principal gate; and now
the city is almost entirely cleared Of

GOMEZ'S SECOND LETTER.
Revolution Should Not Abandon the
Convention to Its Enemies.

Havana Aug 23.-General Maximo
Gomez to-day published second letter
to the electors of Cuba, in anticipation
of the forthcoming constitutional con-
vention. After saying that the people
have not righely understood the former
letter, he goes on to observe:
THE separatist party in Cuba has al
ways defended the idea of independence.
Other parties have been formed to COM
bat this just aspiration of the people.
The matter now in hand is one of vast
ly more Importance than any question
of public offices. From this convention
something should result that will be
clear honorable and satisfactory.
Should this work be entrusted to
those who in arms, opposed the revolu-
ton or to the revolutionists whe lent
their aid to the cause on the field of
battle and in towns abroad? The rev.
olution should not abandon the conven-
ito to enemies, but should crown it's
work in the convention"
1t is freely remarked in Havana that
the first letter of General Gomez was
responsible for the success of the union
democratic party.

PEKIN ON FIRE.
Imperial City i'm Flames from Incendt-
nry Chinese Torches.

London, Aug. "a. $3.50 a. m.--Fires,
fighting and dissension are apparently
following in the wake of the relief Of
Pekin. The Daily Mail publishes des-
patches from the Chinese capital, dated
as late as August II, declaring that
great fire was then raging in the i'm
perial CITY. The Russian commander
had declined to accept the decision or
the other generals not to violate the
imperial precincts, and street lighting
was going on.
General Chaffee, so it is asserted,
maintained that the Chinese had been
adequately punished already, and that
it would be unwise to take the imperial
palace. This explains the withdrawal
of the Americans after preaching three
gates, as cabled by the special corre-
spondent of the Associated Press. Inc
Russian general. however, maintained
that his government had declared war
against China and that therefore, there
was no reason to prevent him carrying
hostilities into the sacred precints.
Judging from various and in many
cases contradictory dispatches that
have reached Europe this morning from
Pekin the commanders eventually
adopted middle course, for Reuter-
telegram asserts that sentries were
placed to prevent looting. Hence it Is
presumed that the imperial buildings
although captured, will not be destroy
ed.
The fires appear to be incendiary and
to be caused by the Chinese them
selves.
All the dispatches point to the fact
that, when the latest message received
here left Pekin, the commanders were
somewhat at sea regarding their future
action, all awaiting instructions from
their governments.
