MADRID, Nov. 3-The Liberal or

ment, call upon the government to an
initiate without pity a party which
they consider disgrace to Spain. 1t is
believed that several bishops intend to

PARIS, Nov. ga correspondent of
LIE Petit Parisien, telegraphing from
point in the French Pyrennes, says
that if troops are not sent Immediately
to Puigoerda and SEQ de Urgel, these
towns of great strategic Importance
will fall into the hands of the Carlists,
who will then be masters of the upper
valley of the Segre and will be able to
obtain arms from France and Andorra.
The Carlists in upper Catalonia are
armed with Mausers and we'll equipped
with tents and campaign material.
PARIS, Nov. 3.-Advices from the
French Pyrenees say the Carlist agita.
ton still exists across the frontier.
Two gendarmes and two Carlists were
killed at Baga and Berga. Owing to
the appearance of several new bands
of Carlists, the gendarmes of Baga and
other districts have been obliged to
concentrate at Puycerda. A number
of Carlists have sought refuge in the
mountains and forests of upper Catalo-
MIA, where it is difficult to dislodge
them. The French frontier population

Removal of the Dowager Empress to BE
Insisted on by the Powers.

Removal of the DOwager Empress to BE
Insisted on by the Powers.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-It is stated in
quarters we'll versed in Chinese affairs
that outside of the questions Of in
demnity, punishments, ETC., now un-
der negotiation at Peking, there are
three vital and farreaching questions
to be determined, viz: First, the re-
moval Of the empress dowager, person
ally and through the influence of her
advisers, from all participation in the
Chinese government; second, the Gre
alton of an indemnity fund by the in
crease of China's customs revenue
either by the payment of the duties in
gold instead of deprecated silver as at
present or else by doubling the present
silver duties from 5 per cent to 10 per
cent ad valorem; and, third, the estab-
lishment of a minister of foreign affairs
in place of the old and cumbersome
system of the tsung Ii yamen. The de-
mand for the
Retirement of the Empress Dowager
is said to result from the conclusion
now generally accepted that the inn
perial government of China was re-
sponsible for the Boxer uprising. AS
the empress dowager was the ruling
authority of the imperial government
during the uprising, this responsibility
is brought home directly to her. There
Is understood to be no purpose, how
ever, to visit upon her any personal
punishment or indignity, but merely to
80 form the reconstructed government
as to exclude her from all participation
in it, 1t is deemed advisable for that
reason that she should remain per-
manently away from Peking and that
her advisers also should be kept away
from the seat of government.
The plan of doubling. China's GUS
toms duties has arisen from the need
of finding source to pay war indemni-
ties which the various powers demand.
