of the North China Daily News, received

massacre foreigners and follow the re-
cent Boxer programme in China and
Korea. The Seoul correspondent of that
paper says that without question there
have been orders sent to every project
to this end during November.
The French are demanding a. conces-
sion in South China for having sent gun
boats to Canton at the invitation of the
vlceroy to protect that city during the
southern rebellion. The Japanese, en-
boldened by this French request. have
also asked for concessions. and the Ger

The Colleges and Universities of the

In the Great Parade Upon the Occa-

Term.

WASHINGTON, D. c., January s.
A distinctive feature of the second in
auguration of President Mckinley, if
plans now under way fulfill their early
promise, will be a large representa-
ton of the colleges and universities of
the United States in the line of parade
for the first time. The matter has been
put in the hands of intercollegiate
committees, which have addressed in
vitations to the presidents of more
than four hundred American institu-
lions OF learning requesting that dele
cations be sent on to represent their
respective institutions in the inaugural
parade. 1t is expected that each coll
lege or university will be a pleasing
addition to the other details of the
parade. The letter of invitation. adj
dressed to the college presidents, is as
follows:

UNEXPECTED OPPOSITION
To the Bill Pending in Congress to
Divide the State InIo Two
Districts.
The Members of the Bar of Charles
ton and Parkersburg are to At
tempt to Kill the House Bill in
the Senate-EIkins Will Remain
on Ground.
Special to the Register.

Special to the Register.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., January g.
Judge Stiles, of Charleston, is here as
the advance guard of the Kanawha
bar to appear before the Senate Judi
ciary Committee in opposition to the
bill proposing to divide West Virginia
into two Federal court districts.
AS heretofore stated in these dis
patches the measure passed the House
without opposition and the fight is now
to be made in the Senate.
From information received by Sena-
tors Elkins and Scott, a large delega-
ton from the Kanawha legal frater-
nifty will arrive here Monday, who, in
conjunction with Judge Jackson and a
considerable number of Parkersburg
attorneys, will inaugurate a systematic
effort to- defeat the bill among those
expected from Charleston, are Geo. E.
Price, E. l.. Butrick, J. F. Brown, Yves
ley MallOhan and a number of others.
Senators Elkins and Scott, who are
taking ar active interest in the meas
ure, expected to go to Charleston for
the organization of the Legislature,
but since hearing of the purpose of the
opponents OF the bill to appear before
the Senate committee this week, Mr..
Elkins decided to remain here and en-
trust the Legislature organization to
your junior Senator, who left last
night, in order to be home a few days
before the Legislature %convenes, so it
will behoove all applicants for posi-
lions in the two houses of your Legis-
lature to file their application with
Senator Scott.
Col. Columbus Sehon, of Point Pleas
ant, who was United States marshal
during CIeveland's first term, is here,
as he says, for a weeks r~ustication.
but as he is a warm personal friend
of Judge Jackson, it Is surmised that
he has been getting in some quiet
work among the Democratic Senators
in opposition to the measure proposing
to divide the State.

pies a desk in the Pension Depart

claimed he was entitled to. The COM
pany anticipated the strike by posting
a notice that the c~olliery from this
date would be shut down. This will
save the officials from any dealings
with the union. The company will
keep the colliery closed until the men
rescind their strike order. The men
are threatening to call out all of the
1000 employees of the twelve colieries
of the Elk Hill Company if the lock-
out is persisted in at the Mount Pleas
ant mine.
