"Waklng 'Fm Up

From the Washington Times.
 MT. Hanna gave one of his delightful lit- tie luncheons in Chicago yesterday. His guests were limited to the representatives of various special interests in the vest notably the wire and steel trusts, the leath- CT trust, and the beef trust-which are be- ing benefited by McKinleyism at home and in the colonies. But really the biggest trust magnate present was the Hon. Billy Lori- mer Republican boss at home and sly and Artful stateNnan in Washington. T woke 'em up-I woke 'em up in good fash ion," was all MT. Hanna would say to the reporters when he came away from his luncheon. It was learned from a reliable source that MT. Hanna laid down the law to his guests on the important question of Chicagos contribution to the campaign fund, and that he assessed the Windy City $5O0 GOO. This is $10O,OOO short of his assess ment on Philadelphia, but as the Quaker City has larger interests at stake in the re- election of MT. Mckinley, both in the tariff and the ship subsidy scheme, 1t Is contend ed that the levy on Chicago is just and equitable The Hon. Graems Stewart, one of the new statesmen developed by MT. Hanna during the present campaign, was assigned the duty of collecting the Assess- ment, which similar duty was assigned the Hon. W. w. Gibbs in Philadelphia The Hon. Billy Lorimer has demanded $250000 of MT Hanna for use in Cook County. This is $25, 900 less than MT. Hanna turned over to Lorimer for like purpose in the last campaign. One of the arguments employed by MT Hanna to wake up'' his guests was that New York Is extremely shaky, and therefore 1t behoves the supporters of the administra ton to fight all the harder in the close States of the west. MT. Hanna told the Chicagoese that Croker was Loyalty supporting Bryan and Stevenson, and that the Tammany chieftan could raise $2,000,000 in New York City for the campaign as cas- lily as he could raise g.

FOR COMMERCIAL FREEDOM.
United States Opposed To Any 9i-
vision Of Chinese Territory.
vICEROYS WELL DISPOSED.

Washington, Aug. 27-The first as
surances reached here that the power
full Chinese viceroys were disposed to
accept the new conditions of affairs in
China and would assist in the mainte-
nance of peace. The information came
in dispatch through diplomatic chan
nels and stated that one of the foreign
officers had received telegram from
two of the most powerful central vice
roys stating that they had intended to
quiet throughout the central portions
of China. AS this assurance came
after the capture of Pekin it is regard
ed as a favorable sign of disposition of
the viceroys, whose authority in the
interior is very great. Their course
has been watched with much concern
by officials, for since Pekin is in a
chaotic condition, the most influential
authority in the empire is that of the
Viceroys.
A cabinet officer is authority for the
statement that alleged differences
among the powers brought on by the
reported action of Russia have not dis
turbed this government in the least
and that there is no information in
possession of this government that
Russia has declared war or that she is
pursuing course in any way different
from that of other governments repre-
sented in China. Every resource of
diplomacy will be exhausted to pre-
vent partition of the empire, and it
was said that the diversion of Ameri-
can troops to Manila, already an
nounced by the war department, was
practical evidence to the other powers
of the good faith of the United States
in this matter. Our work in China has
been accomplished in large part by the
relief of the legations, that of aiding
to restore and maintain peace can be
accomplished through the troops al
ready on Chinese soil.
This government is in position to
demand commercial freedom in China
as minimum condition of the final
settlement in the event of territorial
division of the Chinese empire, should
that be accomplished. The United
States, of course, wants no territory,
and it is felt that her rights as to COM
mercial freedom are too clear to be
gainsaid by the other nations inter
ested.

THE DOUGLAS SHOE.


The best advertised and consequent
ly the best known shoe in the world
today is undoubtedly made by the w.
L. Douglas Shoe Co., of Brockton,
Mass. The one idea of this company
has always been to sell shoe for
$3.50 which equals in every way the So
shoes Of any other concern. They are
able to do this ON account of there be-
ing no middle mans profit, as the
goods are sold direct from the factory
to the wearer. In so of the principal
cities of the country they have their
own retail stores. The goods are made
in all sizes and widths, and few shoes
equal them for style and durability.
The factory at Brockton employs
over LOO hands, and all labor trou-
bles are settled by the state board OF
arbitration. Nothing but union labor
is employed, and pay about the best
average wages of any shoe workers in
the United States. The factory pay
roll amounts to ST., 435 per week. This
company makes shoes for men only,
and it is their proud boast that over
one million men wear them.-Denvef

Potatoes too Cheap.

Lawrence, Aug. 26.-The Kaw val

discouraged this year. Low prices and

they propose to cut down the acreage.
Some of the best patches in the valley

but in most of the fields the yield is
from rs to 125 bushels. This week the
growers are getting Is and 10 cents a

Akron, Ohio, Aug. 25.-When the

downtown streets were just as the mob
had left them, and, although nothing
was being done by the rioters, crowds
of spectators, hundreds in number,
hung around, waiting for something
to turn up. When Company C arrived
from Canton, at $50, there was no
open resistance except by Kisses and
groans. At $50 nine more companies
of militia arrived. Rioting is squelched
