powers who suffered during the upris-

diplomats at Pekin were not massacred.
At an interview with Ambassador
Choate on Saturday Lord Salisbury did
not discuss the eventual settlement or
likelihood of a partition of China, and 1t
may be reiterated that this phase of the
situation has not yet been made the
subject of an exchange of views be-

Japan or any other power has an ulte-

trouble in China, Lord Salisbury does
not appear to be aware of it.

about to begin investigating the realty

their Investigations Of the personal tax

claimed that gigantic frauds have been

prised when they receive notice tell

In one ward alone this temporary con-
version amounted to over $4,00O,000

Chicago, June 25-The sentiment
among the delegates to the Prohibition
national convention who arrived here
to-day apparently favored the nomina-
ton for president of John G. Wooley,
of Chicago. The fight this year, it was
stated. would be made on straight

the exclusion Of all other national ques-
lions. Wooley is the chief advocate of
this plan of campaign. Hale Johnson,

Track Raising In Chicago Considered

Chicago. June 25.-The aldermen will
have the track elevation ordinances be-
fore them again this evening as a spe-
cial order. If the west side members Of
the council insist on eliminating the
clause relating to the vacation of Rock
we'll street, a mandatory ordinance will
be passed. The question of railroad
track elevation has occupied much time
in the proceedings Of council for several
years past. and in this connection many
charges of bribery and attempted brib-
cry have been made. A few weeks ago
an ordinance was passed ordering the
raising of tracks, and subsequently the
action was rescinded. The Pennsylvania
railroad states that 1t will not consent
to raising its tracks unless Rockwell
street is vacated.

Porto Rico Schools Close.

San Juan, Porto Rico, June 25.-The
public schools of Porto Rico have closed
for the summer vacation which lasts
three months. The educational de-
partment has accomplished wonders
during the year, although it is still at
ioggerheads with some natives who do
not take to the American educational
system. American methods, text books
In both languages and teachers have
been introduced Over 70 American
teachers have been employed, mostly
young normal graduates, wherein lies
the trouble. The natives assert that
native teachers should be employed.
II that should be done, the growing
generation would not be learning the
English language, and the schools
would gradually drop back into old
shiftless Spanish methods.
