tfOu: Case.

Guam are Americans by virtue of the an
nexation Of their country by the United
States.
The question arose In connection with
the application for naturalization papers
Of Reynold Reyes, native of Guam and
former subject of Spain. He took ont
papers. though the court said that II Was

MISSIONARIES BACK FROM CHIN.
All Had Suffered More or Less IL
Troubles There.

SAN FRANCISCO, September 15.-The
transport Hancock arrived Friday from the
China station. The Hancock brought few
passengers Among them are Major e. E.
bravo, U. s. A: Lieut.. Davidson, U. g. NJ,
from Taku; Lieut.. E. 8. Serrat, U. 8. N.
from Naeasaki. Fourteen missionaries and
their families from NagasaM arrived. The
missionaries aboard the Hancock include
1. l.. ]. Ho:veke. Rev. E. o. Bowen, Rev.
W. E. ManIey, wife and two children; Rev.
D. Jones, wife and two chilaren; Rev. J.
D. Dawes, wife and baby: Miss o. Hoden-
field and Miss B. G. Forbes.
None Of these missionaries came into d.
rect contact with the Boxers, but all have
suffered in one way or another because OF
the troubles in China. Some of them are
destitute, and all lost more or less property.
They were obliged to leave their homes In
northern China on orders from the consul.
III various ways they managed to reach
the coast, and there went aboard steamer
for Nagasad, where they were given pas
sage on the Hancock.
Rev. j. T. Peat and wife and four chill
dren, with Miss E. Hunt, missionaries, who
escaped from the western province Of Cha,
arrived here yesterday on the steamer Mp
pom Maru. They were among the last Of
the missionaries to leave China. They had
a journey of 1900 miles across the country
when they received the American consufs
warning to leave the country, but as they
were in a district where the trouble did
not begin early, they encountered no vio-
lence.
Mr. Peat says that the Chinese were
rapidly arming themselves without the as
sistance of foreign manufacturers of war
materials. There are arsenals in the cap
ttals of nearly all the provinces, said the
missionary, land 1t Is of little use now for
the powers to agree that they will export
no more weapons or ammunition to China.
The Chinese have learned how to make
modern weapons for themselves. At Chcntu
they are turning out ffrst-class Mauser RI
fles in large quantities.

The great creditor combination that
own the bonds of the nations, states
and municipalities of the world also
control the great banking houses al
the principal money centers of the diff

they collect their interest, deal in
exchange and sell credits to other
banks, all of whom, in every nation
are absolutely at the mercy of the
great central neydistributing
banks that are owned by the gold
combination.
The creditor combination in order
to enlist the sympathy of the banks
of this country in their project to
outlaw silver encouraged them to out
law the greenback and treasury note
SO as to clear the field for the notes
of banks. The bill that has just
passed wherein the banks receive the
extraordinary privilege of creating a
vast volume of paper money places the
banks themselves absolutely at the

sess the power to bankrupt and take
possession of railroads and all other
industrial trusts, and while these
trusts are plundering the people they
will find in the end that they have
been piundering them not for them
selves but for the money trust which
within two or three decades, if al
lowed to retain the n0yyar confarrpfl
