pentine manufacturers of Louisiana,
Alabama and Mississippi have been
organized as a branch of the Tur-
pentine Operators Association
formed at Jacksonville, Fla in
August, which proposed TO take in

form associations in all parts Of the
turpentine field TO co operate so as
to regulate the wages paid and the
labor, mainly negroes employed in
the turpentine orchards, TO curtail
production SO as to prevent the over
production which is held responsible
for the present low prices, and to
regulate as far as possible the price
of turpentine, rosin and other naval
store products.

Ii HUNG CHANG HAS PASSED AWAY.
Peaceful End Of a Long and HonOred Career
as China's Leading Statesman.

Peaceful End Of a Long and HOnOred Career
as China's Leading Statesman.
LONDON, Nov. 9-Dispatches re
ceived here say that Lii Hung Chang
died at II a. m November z.
Ii Hung first rose to prominence
as the leader who suppressed the
TAPPING rebellion, although it is pref
ty generally understood that the
aohievements of the American Ward
and the Englishman "Chinese" Cor
don in this war we're really what
turned the tide. He was thirty-one
years old when the TAPPING rebellion
broke out in 1853.
AS a reward for his services Ii
Hung Chang was made governor of
the provinces of Fuhkien and Kiang
su. In 1852 the Shantung rebellion
broke out and Ii again took the field
and again defeated the rebels. In
1870 he was elevated to the vicerOy-
ship of Chilli, the most important
vioeroyalty in China.
He, in 1875, again distinguished
himself by his efforts to cope with
the great famine, and four years
later he was made grand secretary
of that state and became the virtual
head of the Chinese empire.
Lii Hung Chang s firm grip on pow
81 early in his career was due TO his
army, which was the best equipped
and best drilled that could be gotten
together in China.
At the time of the outbreak of the
war with Japan Ii Hung Chang was
at the height of his powder, and, al
though the Chinese disasters result
ted in some outward signs of dis
grace visited by the court upon him,
it nevertheless was Ii Hung Chang
who negotiated the terms of peace
In 1895 Ii Hung Chang made a
tour around the world, visiting the
United States and the principrl CAPT
tails of Europe, where he "a received
with great honors, notably in Rus
STA.
For the recent peace negotiations
between China and the powers Ii
Hung Chang was summoned to Pekin
from the southern provinces to which
he had been sent as governor after
his partial restoration to favor. He
was one of the plenipotentiaries,
though second in all things to Prince
Ching.

YER, 7th: Houston Merrimon, the
son of Judge James Ell. MerrlmeD,

calibre bullets striking Merrimon,
one in the elbow, the other near the
spine. The shot in the elbow will
make the arm stiff. The wound
near the spine may prove fatal.

A PLOT TO MURDER AMERICAN SOLDIERS

MANILA, Nov 5.-A plot to massa
ore the American garrison at Mon
oada, Province of Tarlac, Island of
LuzoD, has been revealed by the
wife of one of the oonspirators.
Several of the town official are i'm
plicated in the murderous scheme.
The woman who, revealed the plot
had a detective beneath a house in
which the leaders of the conspiracy
we're meeting. Arrests followed
and many discriminating papers were
seized.
The plan was to fire a house close
to the barracks after dark, and when
the soldiers came out to assist in ex-
tinguishing the flames, $50 conspira-
tors, armed with bolos, were to rush
on the guard, capture their arms and
proceed to massacre the garrison.
