clung to the arm of her lover, Charles
Goldhausen. in the court of Justice
Dooley yesterday and with flashing
eyes declared that nothing could tear
her from the side of the man she loved.
Even prison bars failed to separate the
couple and when Goldhausen was ar
rested Tuesday evening the young wo-
man who promised to become his bride
insisted on being arrested with him.
When she was not permitted 10 remain
with him, however, she succeeded in
having the police lock her up in cell
adjoining and when bail was offered
her she refused to accept it unless her
sweetheart could go with her. No bail
being furnished for him, the young wO-
man remained locked up the entire
night.

The arrest of the young man was
brought about by Miss Silverstein's
father, John Silverstein. whose home
is at 49S Halsted street. He says he
objects to GoldhauSen as q prospective
son-in-law and will not tolerate him as
the husband of his daughter. The OBJ
jections of the parents are laughed at
by the young people and GOldhausen
says he would have long ago made
Miss Silverstein his wife but the pres
ent labor troubles have kept him out
of work and thus interfered with his
plans. The girls father told Justice
DOoley that GOldhausen had abducted
his daughter, but both the defendant
and the girl denied this. The case was
continued until July Z.

Shang Hal Wan, 1900 driven off from
Tfen-Tsin and 10000 at Pekin.
The dispatch received by the foreign
office stating that the foreign legations
were requested to leave Peking within
i specified time is Interpreted in some
unofficial quarters as tantamount TO
giving the ministers their passports
and TO 4 declaration of war; but as
China does nothing like other countries
the official opinion is that here is moth
ing to do but to await the course of
events and TO see what the ministers
themselves say when they are rescued.
According to adyices from Shanghai,
the Chinese officials, by direction of the
southern vicerOys, ars asking the con-
suls 10 agree to conditions ''ensuring
the neutrality of Shanghai and other
coast cities" They are also asking that
foreign warships shall not sail or an
chor near the forts nor go to ports
where there are no warships now, that
their crews shall not go ashore. and
that the protection of foreigners be
left to the Chinese authorities. These
conditions are considered at Shanghai
to be virtually an ultimatum from
Viceroys Liu Kung Yih and Chang
Chih Tung. The consuls desire a suf-
ficient naval and military force to back
up their refusal to comply with these
demands. The total naval force there
now consists of 800 men. with thirty
two guns. The Chinese have 5000 men
with six guns in the forts and 10000
men outside Shanghai with modern RI
fies and machine Guns.
