TWO REFORM MOVEMENTS AND THE UP

Paris, Oct. 13.-Letters received in diplomatic
circles here throw somewhat clearer light on
the situation in Southern China where anti
dynastlc uprising is now in progress. The re-
form movement there is divided into two dis
tinct parties. one led by Kang Yu Wei and the
other by Sun Yai Sen. The former is agtating
for drastic reforms but wishes to retain the
present dynasty, while Sun Vat Sen aims at de-
posing the Empress Dowager and making
clean sweep Of the existing regime. The latter
is leading the present rebellion The last
thenic news of him was OF his presence at
Yokohama three months ago But since then
he is believed to have smuggled himself into
Southern China and to be leading the Reformist
rebel forces. his plan of campaign being the

GERMANS SURPRISED.
Don't Know What to Do About the
American-Russian Proposal.

BERLIN. Aug. 3.-The German govern
ment is considerably embarrassed by the
Joint proposition of the United States and
Russia to withdraw from Peking and 10
recognize III Hung Chang as an intermeli-
airy. 1t was wholly unexpected here that
Russia would join the United States ia
such a step. Count Won Buelow, the for
eign minister, considers the new situation
thus created so important as to compel him
10 abandon the vacation trip he was about
TO take This evening the semi-official
press expresses the views of the govern
ment in cautious terms.
A Foreign Office official made the follow
ing statement on the subject: Germany
has not yet answered Russias request TO
withdraw from Peking. The other powers
do not regard the military situation there
as precarious. AS far as Ii Hung Chang is
concerned, Germany is ready TO acknowl-
edge him as China's representative in peace
negotiations II he shows himself properly
accredited; but as 10 this feature of the
case nothing Is as yet known here"

a German bank is negotiating with Chang

loan OF a million taels is positively denied

the German forces in Peking occupy the

ANDERSON, Ind. Aug. 31-The Ameri-
can window glass factories will not begin
work tomorrow morning. John Strom'
manager of factory No. 16. received notice
to that effect tonight from the general
manager at Pittsburg. This has been
caused by the president Of the Cutters
League. who says his men will not work
until President Burns, OF L. A. 3OO revokes
his demand upon the cutters. He has said
they must break up their union and come
into the L. A 800. The glass men of this
district had hoped to begin work to-mor-
row. but now it is impossible to say when
the factory can begin running.
The pots in the North Anderson factories
were lowered to the furnaces last night
put into the furnaces this morning and will
be in shape for to-morrow's blowing. The
trouble which is existing with the fiatten-
ers in regard to the scale for the coming
year will not change the condition of af-
fairs between the other workmen and the
factories The places of the fiatteners had
been filled with other men by employing q
class of men who have heretofore been
helpers to the flatteners- These men had
been in the employ of the Anderson fac
tories for the past eight years and were to
have been put in the places vacated by the
regular fiatteners, as they willingly accept
ed the scale offered by the manufacturers.
The real trouble of the fiatteners Is not
with the manufacturers, but with PRESIDENT
Burns, of l.. A. 300.

Tin-plate Scale sim Unsettled.

PITTSBURG, Aug. 31.-The conference

was made that all are hopeful of an agree
ment tomorrow. Up until now the con-
ference between committees of the Anal

Workers and the American Tin-plate Com
pany have been without result, but the i'm
preston prevails that a satisfactory scale
will be agreed upon.
Another conference of Importance, at
which it is thought a scale will be fixed,
is set for Sept. at Detroit, between rep
resentatives of the Republic Iron and Steel
Company, American Steel Hoop Company,
Standard Chain Company and the Anal

the part of the association, is composed of

has been submitted TO the several lodges

MAY ALL AGREE.


LONDON, Aug. 31.-The Associated Press
has official authority for announcing that
the Americo-Russian proposal in favor of
the withdrawal OF the allied forces from
Picking, with the view OF facilitating nego-
tiations for the conclusion OF peace has not
only met with considerable favor at Euro
pean chancelleries, but is almost certain to
be adopted. In the meanwhile the question
OF employing Ii Hung Chang as an inter-
mediary is meeting with more and more
favor. and, as the. Associated Press has in
timated in recent dispatches. will, in all
probability, be settled affirmatively as soon
as Ii Hung Chang is able to obtain the
necessary authority.
The recent statement that the admirals
OF the powers in Chinese waters contem-
plated OBTAINING III Hung Chang at Taku
is devoid OF foundation. Ii Hung Chang
viii remain at Shanghai. endeavoring TO
the utmost to open communication with his
colleagues OF the Chinese government.
There is growing conviction in official
circles here that the withdrawal of the
allies from Picking is the only practical
procedure under the existing circumstances,
and it is believed the retention Of the allied
forces at Picking is liable to raise further
complications OF dangerous character and
unnecessarily irritate the Chinese populace.
There is. however, no doubt in official cir
Giles that Ii will be necessary for the powers
to maintain their hold of the Taku forts
and certain other strategical points until
satisfactory terms are arranged and ample
guarantees given by China for her future
good behavior.
The afternoon papers to-day appear to be
perplexed at the Americo-Russian accord
10 secure the prompt evacuation OF Picking.
They point out that this completely upsets
preconceived notions of the grouping of
the powers on the Chinese question. and the
consensus of London's editorials is that
the proposals are antagonistic to British
interests, and that the allies should remain
in Picking until the Chinese government is
re-established and the ringleaders Of the
political uprising are punished. The Globe
seizes the opportunity to indulge in un-
friendly criticism. accusing the United
States of breaking the concord of the pow
ers and playing into the hands of Russia
against Great Britain by supporting the
suggestion of the employment of Ii Hung
Chang, who, the paper declares, is motor
iously hostile TO Great Britain and friendly
to Russia The Globe urges that the Brit
ish government oppose to the uttermost the
idea of the evacuation of Peking, in which
course the paper adds. it will be supported
by Emperor William of Germany.
The newspapers. however, do not reflect
official sentiment.

LOSING VOTES.
CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.

CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE)
TO put the Democrats on the defensive on
the very issue Colonel Bryan had hoped
TO organize Republican stampede.
The later developments with regard to
the lack of success of the anti-imperialist
programme throughout the West is con-
frmatory of the theory on which the men
in command of the Republican campaign in
Chicago and the State of Illinois framed
their plan three months ago. They decided
before the adjournment of Congress, at a
meeting held in Washington, to spend their
money in uniforms, brass bands and red
fire, leaving to the congressional commit
tee and to Mr.. Hanna and his. lieutenants
the work and the expense of conducting
whatever campaign of education they
might think best. In the language of
doc" Jameson, who, with Representative
Lorimer, is running the Chicago end of
the state campaign for the Republicans,
There is nothing to educate the people
about this year. They were sufficiently
educated four years ago. 1t only remains
for US to hold the ground we won then, and
one of the things necessary for us TO do
to hold our own is to arouse enthusiasm
over the proposition that We must. as a
nation, reap the benefits OF the valor of
the American soldiers and turn against
everything and everybody suggesting an
opposite course" The national committee
has, after two months consideration, de-
cided to subscribe to the Jameson policy
in its broadcast and most practical sense.
