knowing something about current events.
They are educated, Intelligent, and reason
ably independent A good many of them
are professional men. or small merchants,
or well-t6 ID farmers-people with whom
politics cannot affect salaries or income.
They went over in great numbers to tne
Republican party some forty years ago,
because it was the party of the North, or
because they believed it to be devoted to
right principles. With them politics and
conscience are still more or less closely
connected. What are they going to think
of a President who basely abandons Chris
tian men and women, whom their good
dollars have helped to support. and leaves
such victims to possible martyrdom?
There may be- difference of opinion rs
to the wisdom OF missionary enterprises,
but this large class of people TO whose
opinions the President has thus far shown
becoming Difference, will have no doubts
on the subject. The supporters of mission
airy societies have indicated in the most
practical way their belief in the good
which these organizations do, and their
confidence in the devotion and wisdom OF
the missionaries. Most of them have been
taught to regard a missionary as heroic
figure, "a person above and beyond ordi-
nary humanity. Are they likely to make a
hero of a President who deserts these mis-
sionaries in their hour of supreme need?
And what will be the effect when these
devoted workers rsturn-if they get out Of
the country aIive-and tell how they felt
on hearing the news that their country
had abandoned them?
The Americans, moreover, are not the
only people to be considered. There are
multitudes of Chinese converts who will
certainly, if left unprotected, be ruthlessly
slaughtered. With cummendable loyalty
and devotion, the missionaries have in
many cases refused TO save themselves lest
these adherents should suffer for lack OF
their protection. To the Chinese Chris
tians many foreigners owe their lives. Yet
Mr. Mckinley calmly contemplates their
massacre and torture. 1t is not a pretty
picture from any point of view.

LOST AT SEA.

Unknown ship Wrecked and Grew
Drowned on Newfoundland
81. Johns, N. r., Jan. i2.-The wreck
commissioner at st. Mary's makes the
following report In regard 10 the steamer
wrecked last night on reef;
"5he is a two mast vessel; Is a com
plete wreck. Only three survivors were
visible at night fall. The vessels boats
were smashed, floating bottom up. The
crew probably tried to land In boats, and
we're drowned In the attempt. Some
bodies are visible In the surf. The ship
is on fire aft. She had some kerosene on
board. Ii is feared she will break up TO
day owing to the heavy sea. She Is re-
ported new ship" One theory Is that
the steamer took tire at sea, and that the
captain thereupon tried TO make land and
that the vessel struck on the coast during
the storm. No hope Is entertained that
the lives OF any on board will be saved
The marine officials say that the
wrecked steamer Is not an oil tanker
The following Is confirmed from boats
sdrift that she Is passenger ship. The
weather Ia stormy. and IL Is feared that
the shore folk will not be able to board
her tonight or receive enough wreckage
to identify her.
