MAY RETURN TO PEKlN

A Washington dispatch says that
the details Of the propositions before
the council of ministers at Pekin, as
set out in the London dispatches, are
substantially correct. However they
are not included in any one note. but
are comprised in series Of notes and
kilograms that have been exchanged
between the State Department and
Minister Conger as the negotiations
proceeded The State Department has
regarded several Of these propositions
as extremely unwise or undesirable
but has not felt that that fact justified
the united states IN wltnOrawir

1t is reported at Tien-Tsin that an
imperial edict has been issued an

Is it necessary, now that the Re-

elect men who, according to the Morn

official acts by old and long-headed

duty which the Republican party owes
to the American people? Not by any

are removed as far from the criminal

The letter continues:
ut may be fairly Inferred from all
of the foregoing that IL you were not
considered by MIR. Bryan as an avow
ed believer in his doctrine of free and
unlimited silver coinage, at the ratio
of Is TO /. he would also have declined
your invitation on the ground that no
party advantage is to be derived from
political communion with you at the
Democratic Club. We do know, how
interested in the success of the Demo-
cratic party in the city, in the State and
in the nation.
This being true. we sincerely, but
respectfully urge upon you. occupying
as you do the position OF president of
the club. not to do anything which
would tend TO forestall the action of
the next Democratic national conven-
ton.
LAS individuals. we Insist upon the
right TO express our opinions in regard
TO the future policy Of our party and
the selection of its nominees. We be-
lieve 1t unwise to permit the opinion
to go broadcast throughout the land
that the Democratic Club of this city
or the Democratic party of this State.
so far in advance Of the convention, are
lirrevocably committed to the endorse

Charleston, S. c., Jan. 22.-The oppo-
sition to the Virginia. Carolina Chcmi-
cal Company, styled by the farmers
the phosphate trust" is coming to a
head in this State. The farmers Of
Edgefield have already appointed a day
for a public meeting. The farmers Of
Greenwood on Saturday met in mass
meeting and adopted resolutions, in
which the president of the Farmers
Alliance concurred, declaring that "the
price Of fertilizers are being advanced
arbitrarily through the influence of a
trust" and appealing to the farmers
of all the cotton States to meet at
their Courthouse on the first Monday
In February land pledge themselves
not to purchase fertilizers at-more than
10 Der cent. advance over last years
prices"
The Virginia-Carolina Chemical Com
pany n month or more ago announced a
rise In price OF fertilizers, which, it Is
claimed, was necessitated by the in
crease price of pyrltes and birthstone
and the scarcity of phosphate rock.
The company, through it's officers
stoutly denied that 1t was trust.

WoRKINGMEN,s MEETING.

:
There was q mass meeting Of work.
ingmen at City Hall last night for the
purpose of hearing the report of the
committee who went to Washington in
the interest OF this yard.
The meeting was called to order by
Mr.. c. II. Herbert. Mr.. John A. Nc
Donald was made chairman.
The committee made their report and
stated that they thought that things
looked encouraging for the yard.
Mr.. Williams moved that n commit
tee of three be appointed to draft suit
able resolutions thanking Secretary
Long. Hon. Thomas Martin, u. S. SEN
ator; Hon. w. A. Young. member Of the
House; Col. Bellinger. Admiral Hitch
born and others, who so nobly assisted
the committee In their labors and to
gather datas in regard to the building
Of a battleship and cruiser here. and to
furnish the same to Congressman Rix
and Kitchen, Of the Naval Committee,
requesting that the words. Z" BY con-
tract or otherwise" be inserted in the
bill. as they had promised to do all they
could for this yard when the matter
comes before the House Committee.
The report was adopted and the chair
appointed r. C. Williams, George
Cameo and G. H. Herbert, and. on mo-
ton. the chairman was added to the
committee.
Mr.. Irwin wanted one man from each
department appointed to assist the
committee already appointed, and made
n motion to that effect. This caused
much discussion
The chair insisted that the former
motion should be reconsdered before
ncting on Mr.. TWINS motion, which
was finally DONE
Mr.. Glover then moved that a com
mittce be appointed, one from each de-
partment in the yard and three cit
liens.
This also caused more discussion, but
finally wound UP in Mr.. Glover's mo-
ton being adopted.
The chair attempted to appoint the
committee, but finally said that he
would reserve his appointment until
some other time
The treasurer reported having collect

On the subject OF imperialism" he

SulO.
II believe that the more the people
of this country see of Imperialism the
less they will like it. Our expansion
must be applied without extending our
territory across the seas. The purchase
OF Louisiana Increased the area Of the
United States. and the area was soon
afterward settled and divided up into
States. oil the citizens OF which have
equal rights and privileges under the
Government. Webster defines an en-
pire to be nation which embraces
variety In races and diversity in gov
eminent. and an imperial policy Is the
policy of an empire; it embraces the
Idea now promulgated by the Republl-
cans that Is. that the nation should
reach out and draw other nations I'M
der the flag by force and then govern
them as subjects
My contention is thai republic
can have no subjects, and that this
nation cannot afford to bring into the
country those who are not to share in
the fuli destiny of the people Ameri-
can. zach proposed annexation must
be settled on It's own merits, and we
must consider whether we desire to
have them. The Filpinos do not desire
10 come in. and do not think a ma
Jority OF Americans desire to have
them come In. Therefore. / have from
the beginning favored, and still favor
an Immediate announcement of the ma
tons purpose to give independence to
the fflipinos on the same terms that
independence has been promised to
Cubans--tf1trt is as soon rs stable gov
eminent is established. But have be-
lieved. and still believe, that hostlities
would cease as soon as such an an
nouncement WIS made, and that the
establishment of stable government
would then be an easy matter. I fur
Their believe that this nation should
give to the Filipino government the
same protection as it gives to the re-
publics of South America, namely a
protection which would prevent moles-
tation from without"
would you have this principle ap-
ply to the Boer warp
mot at all. There is a difference be-
tween sympathizing with people en-
gagged In fighting for independence and
people who have come under our i'm
mediate influence. I believe our people
sympathize with the Beers, as they
have sympathized with every people
under similar situations. man who
believes in the doctrine of self govern
ment, sympathizes with those who fight
for 1t rather than for a-monarchy fight
ing against It,"

A BURGLARY.
Mrs. Thomas Deals residence, on
Liberty street extended, was broken
into some time Sunday morning and
robbed OF q considerable amount OF
wearing apparel, consisting OF cloaks,
hats and gloves and lot of notions
that had been purchased on Saturday
night, and made his escape without at
tracing special attention Of any one in
the house.
The burglar entered through one of
the windows in the rear part of the
house and went out through the door,
taking with him the key, perchance to
save himself the trouble of entering
through Il window the next time. 1t Is
thought that the thlevIng was done
about o'clock In the morning, as the
family were aroused about that time
to find that their house had been rob-
bed. Officer Mcpherson, who was no.

of the guilty one.
