Then Will Formally
Declare War.
France Will Support Germany
in This Course.

London, September 26, 80 a. m.-
vices from New York, published in this
mornings papers does the British public
learn that the United States and Great
Britain are once again ranged together
in opposition to the continental powers.
Apparently such a grouping was ent TREY
unexpected in both Berlin and London.
Meanwhile the news from China indi-
Gates that events are rapidly drifting In
the direction of war between China and
Germany.
''There is the best reason for believ-
ing," says the Shangh ghai-correspondent
of the Morning Post, "that Count Won
WaIdersse, on arriving at Taku, Will
present an ultimatum demanding the sur
render of five leaders of the ants-foreign
rising After a few hours grace he will
formally declare war; and, taking ad-
vantage of Germany's position as belli-
gerent he VIII proceed to sisze every
thing available with the German forces
and fleet.
"It is expected that Germany win take
the Wu-Sung forts and the Kiangan
arsenal, thus dominating Shanghai. 1t is
also believed that she will attack the
Kiang Win forts on the Yang Use from
the Landslide and endeavor s3ize the
Chinese fleet, including the valuable new
cruisers. Failing in this she will at
least occupy all the province or Kiane
Su, north OF the Yang Use Kiang.
The French Will support Germany.
This is not rumor, but reliable informa-
tion and Will probably be confirmed at
the foreign Office. Prompt action is nee.
essary to prevent coup which would
constitute serious menace to British IN
terests.
"Russiahs handed over the Taku-
Pc kin railway to Germany"
The Shanghai correspondent OF the
Standard telegraphing Monday says:
"Chinese officials report that Prince
Tuan has Issued a secret edict in the
name OF the Empress Dowager to the
effect that the imperial court has decided
to continue the war against the powers
at whatever cost. The edict threatens
that any official failing to support the
Manchus viii be beheaded as a traitor,
his whole family executed ana the tombs

N. e. BREEDERS MEETING.
Some Fine Ev ents on the ReadvilIe
Track Yesterday.

Readville, September 95.-With some
much finely bred horse flesh shown in
the tan ring, the second day OF the New
England trotting horse breeders assoei-
alton meet at ReadvilIe was full OF inter
est. The entries today in the prize ex-
hiblts were larger and the contests for
blue ribbons were much keener than yes
terday. AS on yesterday, e. ID Jordan
led in the list of successful exhibitors
with five blue ribbons and two red. His
total winnings amounted to $24O; those
of Il. W. Lawson, who had three blue
ribbons and two reds, $3.50; and Malcolm
Forbes sos.
There has seldom been better horse rae
ing at the park After two heats, one
to Miss Duke and the other to Aka
lone, the 2 II trot was put over last
night. Miss Duke got the money today
by her superb endurance and reserve of
speed.
The 2.11 trot had six starters, with
Alicadalia the favorite, and five heats
brought her to the top.
The surprise. of the day came in the LOS
pace, in the bay gelding Little Boy.
The eight other starters got away we'll to-
gether, except Little Boy, who danced
under the wire until the bunch were
nearly at the quarter. Palmer started
after them and got inside the flag, al
though he was second last, The next heat
he let the bunch get fifty yards away at
the word He then started after them
like whirlwind, and at the half the rest
looked as II hitched, for On he went away
from the bunch and led down the stretch
an easy winner in 206 1-s. Twice again
he did the same manoeuvring.
Carmine was the favorite, and won the
2 II pace in straight heats.
