FATE OF THE TOPEKA.
VIII Probably Not He Known Until
the A1-ki Arrives.

City of Topeka, which piled up on the
sullivan island rocks December g. will
probably not be known until the arrival
OF the Al-Kf from Alaska. The Ai-Ki is now
due, but owing to the unusually rough
weather In the north for several weeks.
she will probably not reach port before
tomorrow
Local marine men are divided in their
opinion as to the chances OF saving the
Topeka. Some think she will go to pieces
whore she met what at first appeared to
be only temporary mishap. Others are
inclined to the belief that she will be
fioated that the chances were particu-
larry good for saving her unless heavy
gales set In after the Dolphin left the
scene OF the wreck.

oIrR POLICY IN CHINA.

From the speech Of Senator Davis
before the Hamilton club In Chicago:
1.-THE Democratic party was siloat re-
speeting our relations with China, be-
cause to declare opinions upon thai
subject which the American people
would receive with contempt and spuru
with disgust would cause the broom
stick ghost OF Imperialism and militar-
ism to vanish in an instant. SO to
speak would annihilate those para
mount issues because It would admit
that even the blind. when told, can per-
ceive, even IL they cannot see II, that
the status, the occupation, and the SOW
ereignty OF the United States In the
Philippines are at this moment and In
this great crisis OF civilization com
handing and absolutely indispensable.
They ~vindicate the wisdom OF holding
those possessions, unless the United
States Is to recede to the shores OF the
American continent, become herself a
little China, cancel herself as a factor
in the great civiliz!ng and commercial
change in the Asiatic Orient, an event
fully as important as the discovery or
America by Columbus.
There are few events in our diplo-
matte and military history more hen
.orable than the consummate skill, the
wise conservatism, and the unf1inching
courage by which the administration OF
President Mckinley relieved our lega-
ton and at the same time maintained
proper relations with the Chinese en-
pire.
THE policy of the United States as
to China should, In my opinion, be
this: It must rescue it's citizens. II
must exact indemnity for all injuries
to their person or property. 1t will in
sist that China shall observe all treaty
stipulations, and that, under any n
all conditions Of sovereignty, cession
or foreign as~cendancy, the open door
shall remain open. We shall use no
military force for conquest, and have
no concert with any European power,
except to rescue our citizens and
theirs"
