THE PRESIDENT MISTAKEN
A Missionary Says He Is in the
Dark as to China.
Charges Minister Wu with Practic-
ing Deception rs to the Real status
in the Or:eut-Sir Robert Hart
Reported to Be without Influence.

An American missionary who has
worked in China for the last twelve
years. writing to a friend in Washington,
has the following to say concerning con-
ditions in the Orient:
AS regards the article written some
months ago by Sir Robert Hart the same
has been pretty much criticised in China.
He is much TOO pessimistic, and makes
patriots OF the Boxers. The old gentle
man has had to go through many un-
pleasant experiences. He is in reality no
such great authority concerning the po-
litical conditions in China. as perhaps he
is assumed to be in foreign countries. He
for years has been living only in Pekin,
and his views in relation to the conditions
of the country in general are limited.
AS far as the American policy in China
is concerned, every foreigner in China re-
grets the attitude of the United States.
The President does not seem to under
stand the correct conditions here. Reso-
Lutte action is absolutely necessary to
create order, If everything is left with
the Chinese Government. then nothing
will be accomplished. Unfortunately.
willy WI Ting-fang has the American peo-
pie on leading strings. He makes the
Americans believe that the Chinese take
them for their best friends"
In confederation of his criticism of the
Chinese Minister. the writer of the foTe-
going encloses in his letter an editorial
clipped from the North China Daily
News" published under date of January
II of the present year. The editorial n6ies
the caustic remarks of the Chinese Min
ister made at Philadelphia, during the
course of a discussion upon the causes
of the unpopularity of the foreigner in
China. Minister WI is quoted in his de-
nunciation of the foreign press in China,
whose tone he claimed was calculated TO
set the whole Chinese nation against for
eigners and all things foreign because of
Its practice of denOuncing the Chinese
Government and officials and condemning
everything which the Chinese people hold
dear and sacred
In rebuttal, the editorial suggests that
not 1--WE people in a million in China ever
see or hear or have any knowledge of
the contents Of foreign newspaper
torfal continues, are only those Chinese
who are the most enlightened, and this
is the class which Minister WI has ac-
kn0wledged is friendly to the foreigner.
The News goes on to state that the
foreign press in China has never de-
nounced the Chinese officials in harsher
terms than the Throne uses in denouncing
them from time to time in the ''Pekin
Gazette"
The attacks of the foreign press. the
editorial continues are not made upon the
Chinese people. but upon the Manchu
Government. which placed WI Ting-fang
as ITS representative in Washington. and
his right to defend the Government from
which he receives his support is acknowl-
edged.
WI Ting-fang is spoken of as former
Bntish subject, and is charged with en-
deayoring to deceive the public by pre-
Senttng half truths with conviucinry fcrra

PLACES FOR YALE STUDENTS.
Opportunity for n Minister to Go to
the Philippines.

NEW HAVEN. Conn, March 10--The
Yale Self-Help Bureau has offered to a
limited number of Yale men an opportun-
ity to go to the Philippines next fall as
members of the force of teachers taken
from young college graduates. The invi-
tation to the Yale men came through the
superintendent of education in the Philip
pines, who is anxious to secure from
American colleges enough teachers to fill
the schools of the islands. The pay will
be from s75 to 500 a month.
The Yale Self-Help Bureau, since its
beginning a year ago, has been one of
the most successful and interesting of
Yale institutions. Before that time
there had been no regular channel
through which needy undergraduates
could secure work in the city. and men in
need of such work had to rely on their
own -endeavorS to secure employment
The number of men making use of this
bureau is larger in freshman year than
later in the course. as at that time a
man in need of help does not know the
ways of the town, and needs assistance
In helping himself more than later in his
course. There are some Sophomores and
juniors on the list, however, and a few
seniors.
An employment bureau for Yale teach
ers has been the outcome of the present
self-help arrangement, and is now work
ing smoothly. with hundreds of appfica-
lions for places by Yale men and requests
for teachers by schools and colleges.

A CHANCE FOR CORK MAKERS.
An Attempt to Form IA Trust in Rus

The State Department is in receipt of
the following report on the production of
corks in Russia, by William a. Heydecker.
Vice Consul General at St Petersburg:
The excise department of the Ministry
of Finance, which has charge of the aico-
mol monopoly, has of late been having
trouble with the manufacturers of corks.
The latter attempted to form a trust
against the Government tn order to com
pei 1t TO accept exOrbitant prices. This
attempt failed, but the department de-
termined, in order to avoid similar rec1r
FENCES, to open cork factory of its own.
The results afforded by tests made on a
small scale and under unfavorable cir
cumstances have proved quite satisfac-
tory.
The yearly consumption of the excise
department is about six billions of cori1s.
the Government intends for the present
to produce two billions

THE HOPE MISSION SERVICES.
Third Anniversary Celebrated by
Song and Sermon.

The third anniversary of Hope Mission
was celebrated last night with a song and
gospel service The home of the mission
at 49, Four-and-a-halfS Street was crowded
with friends who came to hear short talks
by b. E. Connerly, the new superintcnd-
ent Of the mission, and by his wife Mrs
Lillian Connerly. Mr.. Connerly is no
stranger to those who have for the past
three years attended service at the Hope
Mission He was formerly an active
worker in the mission, but some time ago
went to Chicago, where he was engaged
in gospel work. He, however, returned to
Washington about six weeks ago and was
chosen superintendent.
Mr.. Connerly took for his subject the
words of the Apostle Paul, with conf
deuce toward God This, he said, was
the foundation of salvation and without
ii We might expect to accomplish but lit
tie. He also told of his own conversion
about six years ago, while he was work
ing in the Rocky Mountain regions. 1t
was then that circumstances made him
look beyond himself for help and. remem-
bering the words Of Paul, he turned with
confidence toward God His prayer was
answered and he still retains the same
confidence in Gods everlasting love for
humanity. Like Paul, he too, he said, was
often perpleXed and worried. but ne re-
tanned his confidence In God and mastered
his trials and troubles,
A short talk along the same line was
made by Mrs. Connery. The exercises
were conducted by w. b. Goodale. who
also spoke briefly on the advantages of
self denial. During the evening there was
congregational singing. led by the mission
choir, which is composed of twelve voices.

became generally known their fellow students
assembled to the number ia thousand, in
one of the lecture halls, to discuss the reason
OF the lowering OF the moral atmosphere among
one that had never before been heard OF among
them All the speakers attributed it TO the de-
moralizing policy and tyranny OF the govern
ment as exercised in the universities.
As the holding OF meetings Is prohibited to
undergraduates, an official investigation fol-
lowed, and ON December Is the university authori-
ties announced that five OF the students who had
taken part in the proceedings would be Incar-
cerated Tor five days while thrty-two Others
