CHINESE REFoRMER TALKS.
Boxer Troubles Explained-Why the
Emperor Was Dethroned.

Standing among scores of his breth-

store on Bond street and addressing

representative of the Astorian found
Long Kai Tin, the Chinese reformer,
last night.
Through the offices of shum Moon,
who is travelling with the reformer as
his interpreter the Astorian represent
ative was introduced to the young man
who set all Chinatown wild with joy
by his coming.
He is q years of age, but one would

glasses also tended to give him more

porter's visit. Long Kai Tin began to
speak in low tones to the interpreter.
who listened intently. occasionally
mumbling something that no doubt was
an approval Of the remarks.
Among other things he said:
II came to this country to organize
Chinese reform societies. Tonight
am not lecturing to my brethren. but
am explaining the object Of my visit.
Tomorrow night I viii lecture to them
on the situation in China and organize
society. All those coming from the
province of Canton are eligible to mem
bership.
II am cousin Of the leading reform
er in China known as Long Kal Chu
and was scholar Of Kang Yo Wal.
will stop here two or three days to
organize this society which has for
it's object the restoration of the en-
peror to the throne.
I'm China the society is doing secret
work and sending out petitions to the
powers to assist us in our work. I have
organized many societies in the United
States since my arrival here"
In reference to the Boxer troubles, the
reformer said:
THE Boxers are those who are in
league with the dowager empress to
keep China from advancing. They are
mostly from northern China and Man
churia and cannot understand the OBJ
jeot of the white people in wishing to
come into the country. The present
trouble started when the emperor of
China began his reformation in China
by doing away with some Of the old
laws and gave our people more freedom
than they had enjoyed for 2OOO years.
We love him for having done this and
want to again see him on the throne.
He established friendly relations with
the powers, and this was not liked by
the dowager empress.
She, with the assistance Of two
ministers named Yong Lo and Kong
VI and Prince Tuan removed the en-
peror and placed him in a place call
ed Ying Toi. where he is guarded day
and night.
I'VE feel that as soon as the powers
succeed in rescuing him and placing
him again in power the present trouble
win cease and not before, If Pekin is
not captured the powers will never BE-
able to subjugate the country. There
are millions of Chinese. and as soon as
one portion Of the country is quieted
another viii rise. We of Southern
China are friendly to the foreigners and
are willing that thev hould come in
and assist us IN advancing It.
IF the powers attempt to partition
China they will find that the work win
not be at all easy and we of the
southern portion sincerely hope it will
not be done. A long and bloody war
will result. The Boxers are the most
barbarous people in our country and
will fight the foreigners to the last"
All those Cinnamon in favor Of the
emperor are wearing photo buttons Of
him and seem to be very proud
of them. At tonight's meeting the
situation in the Celestial Kingdom
win be fully explained to them, and af-
ter that permanent organization per-
fected.
