THE NATION CRUSADE.
The work Goes MerriIy On in Kan-
sas-MOre Places Smashed by the
WPeckePs,

Perry, Kan, Feb. 16.-Fffteen prominent
women led by the wives of a Methodist
minister and a bank cashier, raided sew
eral joints here last night. With hatchets
and axes they demolished fixtures right
and left, entailing a loss In that particu-
lar saloon alone of more than $1,000.
Twenty whisky barrels and sixty-two
kegs and twenty cases of beer were car
ried into the streets, where they were
chopped into kindlnS wood, and their
contents flowed away in the cutters.
A drug store was the last place visited.
The proprietor was accused of quenching
the thirst of local inebriates and his
stock was quickly destroyed. In striking
at the shelves with her hatchet one of
the women accidentally struck a bottle
of carbolic acid. The fluid bespattered
her clothing and hands, burning her quite
severely.

Jointists Have Fun with Nation Peo-
pIe at HeIOit.

Beloit, Kan, Feb 16.-There was a
free-for-all fight to-day, arising from the
feeling over the joints. The temperance
men and women insisted on inspecting
the places to see that their orders for
closing had been observed. The Mayor
allowed three or four to enter a joint at
a time. and sent an officer to see that
no damage was done. The investigating
committee was followed by large crowd.
Soon an alarm of fire was sounded, and
hose cart dashed up and the firemen
commenced throwing water on the crowd.
Some men attempted to cut the hose. but
were prevented by display of revolvers.
After several had been more or less hurt
some arrests were made and quiet was
restored.

THE MINISTERS DISSATISFIED.
Ch1na's Answer Is Still Unsatisfnc-
tOry-OnIy One HeDd VIII Not
Satisfy Them

PelSin, Feb 16.-A message was deliv-
cred 20 the foreign ministers before the
meeting this morning, from the Chinese
peace commissioners, which contained the
wording of an edict, dated yesterday,
practically reiterating the recent dis
patches of the Associated Press, sentenc-
ing Princes Chung 90 commit suicide and
Yu Hsien, former governor of the prov
ince of Shan 81, to be executed, both in
the presence of a high government Of
fetal, in order to satisfy the foreigners.
Chi Shiu and Hin Cheng Yu will have
their cases Investigated by Lii Hung
Chang and Prince Ching, whose report
the Emperor will take before execution
is pronounced
Gen. Tung Flu Slang is deprived of his
rank and will receive further punishment
afterwards
Yang Man and Chao Su Khan are i'm
prisoned
Sentence of death is suspended on those
culprits, who are already dead, and oil
their honors are cancelled, also the post
humous honors granted to their families.
Owing to the Iateness of the hour at
which the translation was made, the min
listers did not consider the matter this
morning, leaving it until Monday. But
they scarcely consider this repetition of
the edict a proper answer to their de-
mands as it means only one head instead
of those demanded. Still, they think that
after the Chinese new year, if insistence
is made, the reply will be as required.
The ministers have considered the plans
for a legation settlement with fortifica-
tions, and also the question of indemnities.
They have decided that the jurisdiction
at present held covered only the losses
of local citizens, and that the home gov
ernments must announce the expenses ot
their military expenditures respectively.

FURRY IN CALL LOANS
ACCENTUATES WEAKNESS CAUSED
BY THE GOLD EXPORTS.
Early Rise Due to Improved Copper
situation Speedily Reyersed-Lead-
ers in the Movement.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2-Decided weakness
developed in the stock market to-day after
some early exhibition of strength. and the
last prices for the day show considerable
net losses and all Of the earlier gains wiped
out The principal factor in the early
strength was the recovery in Amalgamated
Copper, and the decided rebound in the
price of raw copper in London. The reac-
ton was based on the gold exports and APP
prehensions that the Presidents message,
to be sent to Congress tomorrow, would
take strong grounds against great combi-
nations of corporations, with Jnfavorable
effect on the market values of their shares.
A furry developed in the call money mar
ket, which later in the day accentuated the
weakness in the closing dealings in stocks.
Professional bear operators were active in
the decline, and following vigorous ma
nipulative tactics, but they met with little
resistance to their efforts in the way of
supporting orders, and the market was
apparently left unprotected. The resultant
uncovering of stop-loss orders dislodged
some large amounts OF stock, especially
among the industrials, the transcontinental
railways and the Vanderbilts which have
been lifted persistent reports of deals
and mergers. The violence of the recovery
in raw copper in London pointed to the
conclusion that Saturdays demoralized
break was due to speculative short SELL
ing, or that later information was changed
from that which prompted the selling. The
recovery in Amalganated Copper reached
to 76A, but the stock slumped again TO
| 72&, helping to upset the market. Louis
vile & Nashville, Southern Railway pre-
| ferred, Southern Pacific and Sugar were
! prominent features Of the upward move
ment and Long Island became strong and
active at an advance Of 4&. the announce
/ ment of gold exports to the amount Of
/ s. 100000 was the turning point Of the mar
/ ket, although considerable resistance was
! offered 10 the decline after. the announce
ment was made. The outward movement
/ of gold bad been generally expected and
| spectators for the advance tried to be-
! little its Importance. Their efforts were
| partly successful until the party OF re-
| action was reinforced by the anxiety over
! the effect Of the Presidents message and
possible congressional action on the sub
! ject of combinations, and the furry in call
money.
The bond market was moderately active
! and irregular. Total sales at par value
were 81 10000. United States refunding
