China's Empress Retires.

The state department received an off.
cial dispatch from Peking Friday stating
that the Empress dowager had ap-
pointed board of national administra-
ton to relieve her of her public functions.
The board consists of six persons three
of whom are members of the cabinet who
are now with the empress at Si-Ugan-
Fee, and Ii Hung Chang, Prince Ching
and Prince Kung, who are at Peking.
This news is regarded as of Importance,
indicating as it does the REIMBURSEMENT
by the Empress Dowager of the arbi-
trary powers she heretofore has exer-
cised. 1t also is apparent that she has
placed herself in position to avoid
direct responsibility to the foreigners,
for, whatever may happen in the future,
the board will have to bear the brunt of
any complaint. 1t is felt that the ap-
pointment of this board will make it
much easier for the foreign ministers to
transact business with the Chinese gov
eminent.

The report of a survivor shows that

the Turkish transport Asian, near Yem-
DO. There was savage fighting between
the soldiers and sailors for possession of
the few boats belonging to the transport.
The captain and part of the crew seized
the boats and abandoned the ship, stab
bling and belaboring with bludgeons the
soldiers and the pilgrims bound for
Mecca. There were three hundred of the
latter on board, who attempted to enter
the boats. A mad panic ensued, many
hurting themselves into the water, where
they were drowned. Forty-eight hours
from the time the transport went ashore,

Ii appears that when COrtright first

glad of IT," and added that the Presl-
dent should have been killed years ago.
Hearing OF this remark three citizens

this information, duly supported by
the oaths OF the citizens who had heard
this statement made Mr.. Shallenberger
took prompt steps TO cancel Cortrlghts

So Says immigration Commissioner

READY TO DRAW DRAGNET.
Conspirators Against Presidents Lille
to be Taken in-Detaiis of a
Previous Plot.

New York, Sept, l0.--Immigratlon
Commissioner Fitchie, who is in charge
at Ellis Island, says that IT is impos-
sible to keep anarchists out Of the
country.
'The law at present states plainly
that no one shall be refused admittance
because of his political beliefs" the
commissioner added, "and the only way
that an anarchist can be kept out is
by proving that he had a criminal rec
ord on the other side"
The declaration was made In response
to a query as to what would be done
in regard to a number of anarchists
who are on their way over here from
England. Scotland Yard officials had
cabled descriptions OF these men, and
1t was thought that their entrance TO
this country could be prohibited.
These anarchists in most cases are
not paupers and meet all the require
ments OF the immigration laws the
